The monthly receipts of the Luth-
eran Ladies' Mite Society on Monday
evening amounted to $3.50 cents. This
society has grown in numbers and in-
terest ever since its organization, nearly
year ago, and it is now an Important
auxiliary to the congregation. We
think every liye congregation should
have society of this kind. 1t fosters
socality and benevolence better, per-
haps, than any other agency. Give the
ladies but fair chance apd they will
do more good thar the same number of
men, for they are more liberal, more
sympathetic and generally more pious
and devoted. God bless and prosper
the ladies in THEN noble work.
We understand that the society con-
templates holding festival in the near
future.

knowing themselves indebted to or who

THE PREMIUM ENGRAVING for "Peterson's s
Magazine for 1888. beyond all question, Is the
most valuable ever issued. 1t Is a copy, in line
and stippie, of the extraordinary painting by
the great Hungarian artist, Muncaksy, "Christ
Before Plate" which is creating such sensa-
t1cn III Europe, sixty thousand persons having
visited it when on exhibition at Vienna and as
many at Prague. The picture is SO real that
the spectator seems to be actually present. The
prominent object is the patient, forgivlng, di
vine face of Christ. Then there is Plate, with
his puzzled, hesitating air; the angry bate, the
scowling brows Of the High Priests and Scrbes
the wild, almost insane, rage Of some of the
crowd; and more than all, the unSpeakable
pathos in the countenance of the plying moth
er who. with her babe in her arms, stands look
ing on from one corner. Never before was that
ever memorable scene so viyidly conceived,
much less 80 successfully and powerfully de-
picted. The picture should be had in every
family. IT can be had, grQtis, by getting up q

nor cold, nor rain, nor drought, but the
dearth of flies. During the first half OF
June, when these restless and inquisitive
insects are usually encountered by the
million. exhibiting all the energy OF
winged youth, there were few to be seen.
Now they are beginning to make their
appearance, but many housewives have
noticed an exception thus far from the
usual pest. In England they are said to
abound as if one of the plaques of Egypt

The following Washington dispatch
of the Sd instant set S forth just about
what the people have expected would be
the outcome Of the star route prosecu-
tions:
The opinion is becoming quite gen
eral among the legal fraternity that nine
star route cases will not be given to the
jury, but will be thrown out Of court by
Judge Wylie and the indictments dis
missed. The rulings of Judge Wylie
upon the evidence thus far presented
iustifies this conclusion, and the counsel
for the government admits that they
have taken their strongest case first, and
if the evidence that IS now being sub
mitted is not strong enough to convict
the other cases will fall.
