my labors here, I desire to correct. AS
stated by your correspondent, my prede-

Springs, Arkansas, did occupy the field
of Unioutown, Dayton, and Demopolis !;
but l have been called" to give my en-
tire time to Uniontown church This
statement / make to show the progress
OF this church, this being the first time
IN It's history that it has had the entire
time Of a pastor, and also to call atten-
ton to the vacant churches of Dayton
and Demopolis These two churches,
from what | can learn, could easily sup
port young man, and would be glad to
do SO, if they could secure the services of
an earnest young brother not afraid of
hard work. We are in a rich country
here, and among willing people, but
there is needed regular preaching and
the training that it will give.
Yours fraternally,

Why He Wore Them.

The late Professor Skoda, one of vi
enna's greatest surgeons, had, until
within year or two before his death,
worn garments of most questionable
cut-the trousers were baggy, and the
coats most ingeniously ill-fitted. His
friends often joked with him about the
matter, and Skoda bore their fun good
naturally, without, however, making
any explanation. One day o friend
observed that he was more stylishly
clad than usual.
This is an unhoped for pleasure,
Skoda," said he, ''to see you for once
properly dressed"
"Say no MORE" said the surgeon,
gravely; che who has made my clothing
for all the years you have known me
did not, it is true, give 1t very fashion
able shape, But he let me have it long
before had achieved success, and he
never pressed me for money when he
suspected that was pressed for it my
self. How would You do, my friend
leave such man for one who merely

But why, then, do you leave him

IN the new Representative Hall AT
Topeka there are ten panels or inches,
in which il is designed to place the
medallion heads of ten prominent
kansans. The State Historical Society
having been asked who were deserving
of this honor, named the following gen.
tlemen: John Brown, J. ii. Lane,
a. II. Reeder. Charles Robinson, Al
fred Gray, ii. J. Adams, II. w. Bar
bour, James Montgomery, NJ. II. Con-
way and B. r. Nudge. We believe
that all the above names are familiar
to the present generation except L. w.
Barbour. Barbour was the first Free
State Martyr, having been murdered
near Lawrence, at the commencement
of the Free State struggle. The Leg
islature has the power TO substitute
other names for the above, but probably
will not,as they are pretty well-chosen
and all deserving Of the honor. But
while on the subject-if any change is
to be made, would il be treason to say
that S. &. Pomeroy's name should be
substituted for b. +. Nudge, or Alfred
Gray-neithsr of whom are more de-
serving of this honor than twenty
other kansans.

THOSE who complain of the acts
OF Boss" Cameron In Pennsylvania
do not seem TO object to Boss"
Biaine's comforting the Independent
movement in that State. His hand
seems To be too conspicuous i'm the
Independent movement for the COM
plete satisfaction of the host of honest
men!who are appealed to, to come away
from Cameron. The hosts of honest
men are not altogether assured that
carpet-bag Boss Blaine Is better than
Boss Cameron, who is trying to take
a lively interest i'm politics at home.
No doubt there arc many men who
are honestly opposed to .'bossism"
from any source; but unfortunately
the men who cry most and make
the most noise about the Outrageous
boss business" are men who would
roll down one boss from the pedestal
to substitute another. Those who are
doing the most 10 engineer the Inde-
pendent movement i'm Pennsylvania
seem to inhabit the familiar haunts
of Washington. They are out of pOwer
and will do anything TO embarrass
the administration, uproot the strong
hold popular stalwarts may have In
the various States, and even wreck
the party itself TO satisfy their envy,
and get revenge and satisfaction.
