MR. BERKEY SPEAKS AGAIN.
Mr.. Bsrkey-In the first place, would
say, of all the mean political cowardics 1
have ever witnessed Ia my life, this is its
superior. | have been on the Republican
ticket of Sacramento county three times, and
have been compelled to run with, and help
pull through, candidates so unpopular, and
against whom such grave charges were pre-.
ferred, that delegates to the Convention, and
many of my Republican friends, sympathizsd
with me at the adjournment OF the Conven-
ton and expressed their deep regrets that
should have to run upon the same ticket with
such nominees. They were charged with
that which was much more serious than this
apparent crime of mine. When the Cohvep.
tion adjourned, the Central Committee start.

Republicans here to-day, should certainly
take this to be q Democratic meeting. have
always claimed that this was an open
account, and no one can dispute it. Members
of the Central Committee have gone along
the public streets and accasted everyone they
met with. What are BerkeY's chances for
election? Have you heard of his being de.
faulter in the sum CT S., 000?"
Mr.. Rider-Nhat member of the Central

Mr.. B.rkey-More than ona, sir.
Mr. Rider-I demand their names.
Mr.. Berkey- Mr. John K. Rider, the Chair
man of the Central COMMITTEES, is one of them.
Mr.. Rider-It is false, sir. / have been

You have, by your acts, closed every avenue

a SOciable at Vesper.

At the close of the term of school,
at Vesper, which had been successfully
conducted by Miss Enos, of Appleton.
for the past three months, an ezhibi-
ton was given by teacher and pupils
in which they all acquitted themselves
creditably.
This was followed by a sociable got
ten up by the ladies of that place, the
proceeds Of which is to go toward the
purchase of patent desks for the school
room.
We, together with party of young
men from Centralia and Grand Rapids,
"took it in" Although arriving too
late for the exhibition, we were in
time for the ice cream, lemonade, cake
ETC., which were all excellent. They
had the customary grab bag, auction
sales, etc, in which everybody is sup
posed to get his moneys worth.
The browning feature Of the evening
was the drawing of ten dollar ring.
Twenty-seven dollars worth of tickets
were sold on this ring. Supt. Lynch
held the lucky number. The even
ing's fun was to wind up with dance
if it had not been for little accident.
Said accident was nothing more than
the floor giving way and letting the
whole asSemblage down about two
feet. Nobody tainted.
The net proceeds Of the entertain
ment amounted to the neat sum of
$66, which exceeded the expectations
of those who got it up. This sum
will be nearly sufficient to furnish the
school room with neat and comfortable
seats for the children, as we'll as a
desk for the teacher. This was greatly
needed in this school, and much credit
is due the ladies of Vesper for their
enterprise in this matter.
We had an excellent time, as indeed
did everyone else, and we think we
but echo the sentiments of all our
party by thanking the people of Vesper
for the courteous treatment we
received.

How Russia Hates Rum.

The liquor law of Russia is very
comprehensive and easy understood
There is no ''local option about it.
but the Gar DEGREES that there shall
be no more than one drink shop in any
Russian village, and where two or three
villages are near together, one drink
shop shall suffice for all. The CON
due tor of the establishment is appoint
ed by the common council and paid a
salary. He receives no other pecuni-
airy profit beyond his salary, and
must also sell food and wares, he is
liable to fine, dismissal and even
imprisonment, if he allows any man or
woman to get drunk on his premises.
In the event of the inhabitants becom-
ing VIGOROUSLY drunken and disorder
ly, the communal authorities are to
prohib it the sale of liquors entirely in
that direction, or village for as long a
time as they may see fit.

a PARAGRAPH ON LAWN

4 PARAGRAPH ON LAWN TENNIS.
Lawn tennis is doubtless the most
sensible game ever suggested for the
fair sex. 1t affords every opportunity
of physical development, and, if in
dulged in reasonably, cannot fail to
prove beneficial to the health. AS a
rule, however, young ladies just learn
ing. the game, in their enthusiasm,
neglect all the principles of health, and
indulge in the exercise to excess. This
brings on sick headache, billiousness,
exhaustion, and general weakness,
which can only be removed by
Swayne's Pills. One trial is sufficient
to convince the most incredulous.

Laid tts Rest.

A large assemblage of mourners gathered Saturday morning at St. Patrick's church to pay the last tribute of respect to their de- parted friend, Miss Ella l.. Mcguire. Short ly after o'clock the nearer friends and rela
 tives had looked their last upon the dead as she lay sleeping in the casket at her late home, and the funeral procession took up it's way to the church. Here solemn mass of requiem was celebrated, Father Labor of St. Marys acting celebrant, Fathers Lancas- ter and Briscoe of St. Patrick's as deacon and subdeacon respectively, and Father Fitzpat- rick master of ceremonies. The choir, which was reinforced for the occasion by &C., sessions from other church choirs of the city, sang the solemn mass of the dead with much feeling. At the offertory Q quintette, composed of Misses Gaffney, Flood and Healy and Messrs. Nc Laughlin and Gafney, sang very sweet ly the beautiful hymn ''Rest, Spirit, Rest' This was particular favorite of the deceased, and as the sad strains of the solo so often sung by her resounded through the church many eyes were dimmed with tears. After the mass Miss Gaffney sang with deep feeling the beautiful piece written by Tours,
 "The Passing Bells" Father Mulholand paid beautiful tribute to the deceased, re- calling her many virtues that were so beauti- fully exemplifed in her several rea- tons as 8 daughter, sister, friend and teacher. Many of the scholars and teachers of Skinner school were present in the church, and also Major Maher

 The East Congregational church. Hum phrey street, yesterday at the close of the morning service met in conc]ave for the pur- pose of taking action with regard to securing the services of Rev. MT. Bray as their settled pastor. There was a very large vote cast to secure him, it being 6G to 5. Rev. Mir. Bray has been supplying this church for a year or two past, and has preached and labored with great acceptance, as evidenced by the church vote The membership has been much in- creased under his administration, and steps have been taken for the erection of new church, the present place of meeting being inadequate. The plans for the new church have been altered so as to leave the erection of the steeple for an after consideration. Great interest is taken by the people in the church services, and $13,oOo out of $2o,ooo needed for the erection of the edifce have been pledged.
