FESTIVAL OF Music AT ATLANTIC
CITY.--1he entertd inment at The City 6y
the Sea 10 erceed anything Of The kind eger
held at a Watering place. The natural
charms of September at the seasbore, the
enjoyment of which the public is deprived
of by the practice of the keepers of large
hotels, who hastily close up with the first
rush, which usually takes place at the
end of August. are not only to be Mt the
convenience of tho public this month
through means of frequent trains to and
from Philadelphia, but arc to be enhanced
by great musical festival similar TO but
greater than that recently held at Cape
May, and under the same management,
September, rs all know whu have visited
the seashore in that month, is the finest
of the twelve the bathing is better than
in August, the weather Is delightful, and
it is only wonder that managers of ho-
tells have not long ago appreciated the
fact that most sojourners leave the ocean
resorts more from custom than desire to
depart when everything thereat is most
enjoyable. 1t is decidedly new depart
ure, and one which will be remuncrative
TO the hotels and business people of At
lantic City to continue the season far into
September.
The United States Hotel, the largest ut
Atlantic City, has determined not to
close for several weeks, and has given the
use Of the lawn for the musical entertaiu
ment The grounds are be brilliantly
illuminated an immense musical stand,
capable of holding 400 instrumentalists,
soloisis, and choristers, will be erected !;
the decorations to be lavish, and Chinese
lanterns and electric lights win be in pro-
fusion. A grand full dress ball will take
place On Saturday night, the music for
which consist of two great orchestras,
numbering over one hundred performers.
The expense of such an entertainment,
which is great, will be met by subscrip-
ton, by the city officials, hotel proprie-
tors, railroad companies, business people,
and citizens generally.
The detail programme Is not yet fully
arranged, but will be duly announced, aud
one great advantage possessed by the pro-
posed fete is the determination of the
management to avoid division of locality
as was the case at Cape May, by central
Hing the different attractions.
OF the success of the enterprise there
can certainly be no doubt

recent canvass shows that Georgia
has no fewer than forty-two counties
where the Prohibitionists claim to be in
the majority. The spread of the pro
hibitory movement at tho South during
the past few years has been striking
When the project was started in New
England to put under ban the manufac-
ture and sale of Intoxicating liquors, it
was considered a Yankee device not likely
to thrive elsewhere Yet il now finds as
hearty support in Texas and Arkansas as
in Maine and Massachusetts and several
Of the Southern Legislatures have very
nearly succeeded in passing laws such as
would delight the heart OF General Neal
Dow himself.
The prohibition question is likely to
play an important part in the Tennessee
campaign. The adoption of an anti
| liquor plank by the State Credit Demo-
Gratis is bringing to the support of their
candidate for Governor tho temperance
element of the party, while the saloon in.
terest is arraying itself openly on the side
of General Bate, the Regulating Demo-
4 cratic candidate.
The Pennsylvania Democrats have de-
cidad against parades aud torchlight and
! brass Dand demonstrations, and will use
their campaign funds in more effective
way. They are not trusting solely to Re-
publican dissensions to give them vic
tory, but to hard work and thorough
organization.
4 The Maine election occurs next Monday
! The indications now are that the Green.
hackers will develop increased strength ;
but that the Republicans win carry the
State by large majority.

DANGEROUS READING.--A lady writes
the Household g came very rear dis
tiDgnishing myself in the cars the other
day. Next me sat young girl, one of
the pretty, well-dressed young creatures
that distinguish Philadelphia sbop-gils,
and her white dress would have been re-
marked for its simple good taste any
where, at Saratoga or Cape May. In her
hand she held and read intently, all along
the route, one of the cheap paper reprints
of the worse French novel extant. |
wanted to snatch it out of her hand and
say: . [ aoSH get gott dose Of Paris
Green, If you like at tie asert corner you
had better take 1t than This stuff" There
was scarcely page of that pernicious
story, indeed, but was more poisonous to
a young girls mind than arsenic would
have been to her strong young body.
There she was drinking in the vile talk of
the demi-monde, porting over the cheap
gaudiness of the houses, toilettes, man
ners and company of that order of Paris,
and by the time she had finished such Il
book her mind was filled with impure
ideas that would never come ont again.
She evidently belonged to respectable
class, but how long such reading would
leave such girl proof against the temp
tations of finery, amusements of disspa-
ton, who could say? There ought to be
some supervision over the reprint market,
at least so much of caution as is expected
of druggists, in selling bottled or powder
poisons. The weak point of this girl was
evidently her handsome dress. IL her
wages would not supply it, the suggest
ions of that treacherous book would make
it easy for some false friend or flatterer to
provide it. Such girl never would start
out to be anything but good girl. But
familiarity with the ideas of such a story
as she was porting over would soon break
down whatever reserve of prudence or
purity she had started out with ] am
sorry now that | did not speak out my
mind to her, as we thumped and bounced
along together in the Peoples Line one
horse car. She wouldn't have thanked
me, know, for fastened on her story. she
was bound to see it to the end. If the
end would only end with the book ! But
this is too much to hope for. She was
learning the first words of a dangerous
and intoxicating language. 1t is more
likely it would end as the book. Here
was !, mature passenger in life, who
had looked into that volume in its original
French and thrown it down in supreme
disgust and revolt, and yet not able to
keeps its poisoned sugar plums out oil
this little neighbours hand. II it had been
Paris Green or pistol, | could have
snatched it away, and all her friends
would have been thankful. The question
is where were all her friends when sucI
reading was first allowed. and could sht
not know, at the first pages of such Z
| twenty-cent novel, that it was destroying
her? Many, If not most young girls il
/ her position, are very independent Of ad
vice. They can take care of themselves
and SO they are left to themselves. ! wal

The western and southern temperance
movements are natural reaction against
too great license. While the introduction
of beer has good effect in driving out
whiskey, 1t has seductive influence in
furnishing half way house to the habit,
and also In opening saloons" as they
are euphemistioally termed, in every
neighborhood. In the meantime the tax
of crime, pauperism and disease on ac-
count of the evil habit compels people to
take up arms against it. There are few
employments in which large employers
even of professional labor, do not fad this
evil the source of their greatest embarass-
ments, "Old Inhabitants = think the
consumption of spirits has fallen off, and
it probably has. limo was when the en-
ployes of the armory used to leave their

There is much tribulation among the
market men and butchers Of New York
over daring piece Of enterprise on the
part of Chicago, in shipping beef by the
carcass to New York, and underselling
local dealers to an extent which, if un-
checked, promises to drive the latter from
the field. The Chcagoans, il would APP
pear, have made u very successful pre-
liminary experiment in this way at Balti-
m ore, and with such encouraging results
as to warrant an extension of their opera
tions to New York. Philadelphia in due
time will also be taken in hand, no doubt.
At Baltimore the local dealers had been
charging their customers 90 and 20 cents
per pound for meat, but the Chicago
operators say they can put the same quail
ty in the markets ut from 90 to 16 cents,
and make money by it. If they can ac-
complish the same result in New York,
then they will not only make fortunes foi
| themselves, but receive the thanks oil
grateful consumers. Latterly, number
| of Chicago firms have been shipping tC
the Eastern cities, not less than about
forty Car loads a day, or about l,50(
dressed cattle. This meat is shipped il

The principal advantage in shipping the
meat dressed over the old custom of ship.
ping it on the hoof is found to be the saw
ing in freight. One car would carry
thirty.five dressed cattle, whereas the
same car would not carry more than hall
that number alive-a saving of one hall
IN freight alone, to say nothing Of the
economy in handling dressed over live
cattle. With this saving Chicago ship
pers predict that it will be impossible fol
the Eastern butchers to handle cattle alive
as in the past, and undertake to compete
with those dealing in the dressed article
| furnished by the West. The new order
of things, therefore, they contend, would
be of great advantage to Eastern con.
sumers of Western products, in that they
will not only get a better article of meat,
but also get It cheaper The New York
butchers and market men, however, view
the matter from far different standpoint.
They say it simply means "ruin," but
what they propose to do about It remains
