have nearly bothered the lie out of Paul. He
finally decided upon getting rat terrier. A
friend recommended one. 1t was brought
around on Saturday night. The lively little
canine went smelling and tearing around the
room as though he could annihitate little
army of rats and would relish a couple of
dozen for supper. The dog was engaged and
left in the billiard hall that night.
Paul went home happy. He
was quite certain that there
would be no rats left alive in his place next
day. Anxious to view the work OF death
''after the battle was over" he hurried to his

THE men to whom Bill Washburn sold
the Minneapolis & st. Louis road may

The stock has been quiet for some time, but
its friends say that it is Que of the cheapest

Kings Street Chapel De dictated

The service was opened at p. m. by Rev.
U. Smith, OF the First M. e. church, Rev. DR..
Marshall, OF jackson street, Rev. D. Morgan,
OF Clinton avenue, and Rev. DR.. Webb. of
Greeneastle. Indiana. The doctor took his
| text from Matthew, eighteenth chapter and
eleventh verse: For the son of man is come
| 10 seek ard to save that which was LOST
lie divided his discourse into two heads.
First came the proposition contained in the
text that 1.-THE world was lost" and second.
I'm Jesus Christ is salvation"
The text declared that not a certain class,
or portion of the human family were lost, but
the world-meaning the entire people of the
world. No exemption is made of any class or
portion OF mankind, but all, absolutely all,
were declared lost.
What the world needs to-day is to be awak.
ened to the fact Of its lost condition. Man
kind do not realize that they severally, as in
dlvlduals, are lost. When men awake
to the sense of being lost, they feel
at once a dependence ON God, and
then to them come home the second part
or topic OF the discourse which shows MS
that Christ came to save.
When we take the history of Christ and
discover that he alone of all human form was
not lost, when we see that though tempted
beyond all other men yet without sin, when
we see his whole time while here on earth
given up to the doing of good to humanity,
we have right to place faith and confidence
in him.
But in the final drama of the suffering.
death and resurrection of Christ we have the
concluding proof of our text that he came to
seek apd save that which was lost. At the
close of the service the financial statement of
the chapel was read, which showed debt of
obout SOY remaining, which was promptly
raised and the chapel declared free from debt.
AS soon as the necessary amount
was raised the chapel on the part of the trus.
tess was presented to the officiating clergyman
by Rev. d. Morgan, who then proceeded with
the service of dedication according to the
Methodist form.
The chapel is neat structure, lSx2S, and
with its seats and furniture cost 1884, The
lots cost $500, which amount
was donated by the different M.
=. churches forming the Home
Missionary society before alluded to. The
different churches of the city will supply
preachers until the society becomes strong
enough to supply themselves with regular
preaching.

Reform Club,


The meeting at Harrison hall was unusu-
ally interesting, many strangers participating
in the exercises.
Rev. Dane of Iowa said that the secular pa
pers do not represent the popular sentiment
That the popular sentiment in the north west.
ern states to day is in favor of prohibition.
That the late vote in Iowa had added largely
to the momentum of reform in Minnesota and
adjoining states. That many hesitated to vote
for the amendment because they ignorantly
thought that it would not carry, etc. The
speaker said this is an age of sentImentalism,
and temperance men are eDtreated IN Iowa to
secure legislation, modifying somewhat the
stringency of the amendment. But duty of
the citizen dictates otherwise. Mr.. Conant
said he had never contributed cent IN sup
port of the traffic. But Mr.. Clark thought
voting with party favoring license is aiding
and abettipg the curse.
West invited all to come to the Young
Mems political club and exchange views with
political prohibitionists.
6 MIR. Boyd, of Ohio, said that the surround
ings at the hall made his soul glad, and that
only his cold discipline in the Presbyterian
church restrained him from shouting.
"Scrap Iron' made one of his characteristic
speeches, and claimed to be one OF the
"cbiefest" Of the temperance apostles,
Mr.. Garvin, OF Wisconsin, wanted them to
understand that his state is not far behind
Minnesota in this great movement. The
meeting was an enthusiastic one, and 'the
cause" received new impulse, doubtless.

FIGHT OF THE FACTIONS

1t is but Soleclsm to say that the Re-
publican party has become thoroughly
corrupt by a long lease of power. Pleth-
ORIG with the spoils of office, corrupt.
partisan self-seekers at length turn their
warfare on each other. The emoluments
and advantages of official position. and
not principle, or the best good of the
general public, become at once the
motive and the rule of action of such
men.
The real disintegration of the Republi-
can party commenced in their National
convention at Chicago in 1880, where a
corrupt cabal undertook TO override the
will of the masses by the nomination of
Gen. Grant for third Presidential term.
Gen. Grants administration had been
characterized by gross corruption, and
shameless jebberles, known to no ether
administration in the history of the gov
crnment.T p His facility in encouraging
corruptionists, brought about him in
great measure, the worst element of his
party, and they banded together to give
him third term, that they might more
largely revel in spoils and public plumber.
The schism commenced at Chicago
was carried into congress and the mad
dened, defeated recusants turned their
warfare on the new administration with
venom that resulted in assassination
The war Of faction was adjourned to the
state of New York, and was character
lied by an intensity of bitterness, never
known outside of domestic broils. The
same bitterness of faction survives there
to-day, degraded to a mere fight for
spoils.
The same factious spirit cropped out
in Pennsylvania, and has disrupted the
party there. The people are becoming
thoroughly disguised with the nefarieus
action of their leaders, the "bosses," the
machine" spoilsmen, who, GUIDED by sell
fish greed, look onlysto their own per-
sonal benefit in total disregard of public
interests. The spirit of faction with
greater or less intensity, runs through
the party everywhere; the masses, appar-

Minnie Kruger, has complained recently that

to their house with shot gun heavily charged

the pebbles lodged in the wall above the bed.
Miss Kruger was arrested and committed for
trial. No reason is known for her singular
actions.
