Inquire ut this office.
Don't forget the Musical Conven'
ton at Rebersburg aud make up youl
mind to go. 1t will be successful ana
pleasant affair, judging by the efforts
the committee and people of that town
are making III their preparatory ar
rangementS.
Last week we chancod to meet our
old time friend Mr.. Samuel j..
Wciser of Mfilinburg, on the train.
Samuel is one of the substantial citizens
OF the staid old burg and does thriv-
ing business in the stove and tin-ware
business.
The st. Elmo Hotel, is one of the
best places in Philadelphia to stay
while in the city. The accommodation
are strictly first class, the charges are
moderate and the place is centrally To-
Gated. We can safely advise our: read
ers to patronize the st. Elmo.
1t will afford us much pleasure to
receive calls from our patrons and
friends, during the present holiday sea-
son-or for that matter-at any time
during the entire year. If You come to
town, as Of course you will, don't for
get to call around ut the New Journal
Ofice. We can have little social
talk and u little business all in al short
time.
&C. F. Gephart offers three, more
piano or chime organs for sale on easy
terms, cash or instalment plan, at $75

Now tnaU we are comfortably fixed
in our new quarters we kindly ask our
friends to call and see us. The build
ing suits us well. It is not large, not
imposing, but spacious, neat, airy and
we'll adopted to its several purposes.
Yes, friends call to see us-it is en-
couraging. But don't forget to briug
your subscription dues along, for that
is encouraging too, and we so much
need those individual dollars to square
off some "balanceS" which our build
iug, press, &C., left against US.
But perhaps you owe US nothing.
Possibly you are not even subscriber.
If the former is true we are under obli-
cations to you for having paid up to
time, or probably in advance, and here
by express our thankfulness. But If
the latter is the case it will take but a
few moments to enter your names on
our books an d fill out receipt for a
years payment, if you wish.
Before you come just please read our
advertisement in another column. You
may strike something that you exactly
need-a family bib le, a dictionary,
album or sterescope, stockings or nit
tens, the best you ever saw, toys or
toy books for the Ii tile ones-anYthing.
We feel quite sure that we can suit
every age and taste with something
proper for Christ mas present-and
shall be very happy to serve you when
you come.

and will try to enjoy our Holidays at

worry.
"A very interesting union childrens'
meeting was held in the Evangelical
church on Sunday. The church was
well filled, the music was excellent and
so were the addresses. What pleased
us especially was that home talent was
utilized in Speakers. Rev. N. Shannon
was|the first one. A. r. Alexander the
second, Hon. w. K. Alexander the
third, and Presiding Elder Swengle
closed. We repeat that the addresses
were good, appropriate, and we'll receiv-
ed by the children and audience.

To us this reads downright cruel
very much like the death-knell of tht
extension. Where will the $50, ,O0(
come from ? Will the people of tht
upper end pay that large sum in addi-
tion to what they have already done
J It is not probable.

Opium Smuggling.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. .1O.-COncern-
ing all important opium smuggling
case on trial in this city before the
United States circuit court, an official
of the United States treasury informed
the Associated Press representative
this afternoon that during the last ten
years over six million dollars worth
of opium has been smuggled to this
port. The business has been system
atically conducted by a ring smugglers
assisted by prominent government
officials, who have been receiving
thirty per cent of the spoils, the SNUG
glers getting seventy that in addition
to their thirty per cent, officials
HAVE RECEIVED BRIBEs
varying from 500 to $1,000, and it is
a notorious fact that many men in this
city reported wealthy have made their
money through smuggling opium.
The present stock of opium in the
market, large as it is, is not more than
three months supply ; so under the
stimulus ofincreased duties, smugg-
ling will be greater than ever. The
treasury agent says that $1,00O,0O0
worth can be smuggled in easily, and
unless the government takes decided
measures to suppress it, opium smugg-
ling will continue to be gold mine
to some officials and their tools.

f rom Mr.. J. J. Randall, who has
visited the fair grounds, the Winona
Republican learns that the building
and other arrangements are on the
largest scale ever yet undertaken by
the Society, and that is reasonably
certain that the most extensive exhibit
of blooded cattle and horses and other
superior farm animals that the State

Owatonna next month. In anticipa-
tion of an unusually large exhibition
of every kind, preparations are being
made accordingly with a degree OF
liberality and forethought which bids
fair to meet every possible require.

TAR AND FEATHERS.
A Dose Intended for One man Given
to Another at Bird Island, MINI.


to Another at Bird Island, Mimi.
A Bird island special says Eng
strom is cripple, who for ome weeks
was in Minneapolis under the treat
ment at DIR. Ames hospital. He lives
in this place and has a family. His
wife has the reputation of being fond
offiirtations, but more serious charge
was brought against her when she re-
Gently left Engstrom to live with a
man named Stokes, who lives short
distance out in the country. On Mon
day, one of his children being sick,
Engstrom went to see his wife and ask
her to come and care for the child.
This she refused to do, and when the
husband insisted the man Stokes and
Mrs. Engstrom's father, whose name
is Camish, elected him from the house
and farm, using him so roughly his
clothe were almost torn from his body.
On hearing of this, the citizens
of Bird Island became in
dignant and decided to give Stokes
coat oftar and feathers. The time
was set for Tuesday night, but a
butcher named J. G.. Desmond, who
had imbibed little too freely, "let
the cat out of the bag" and warning
was given Stokes of the inten ded visit.
When the party arrived at his place
he discharged a shotgun into the
crowd, the shot taking effect in th e
face of a young druggist of this
place, producing painful but not dan.
gerous wounds. It was not long, how
ever before it was learned in what man
ner Stoke had been warned, and as the
implements were ready and the inten
ded victim not to be secured, the party
gave Desmond the dose they had in
readiness for Stokes. No arrests have
been made, but it is rumored that the
end is not yet.

SCOURGED BY SMALLPOX.
Fearful Rayagcs Of the Disease
Among the Indians Of
Itasca County.

DULUTH, Aug. 11.-AleX. McGinnis
arrived in Duluth this morning from
an extended exploring expedition in
the st. Cloud land district. He re-
ports that smallpox is making terrible
inroads upon Indians living in certain
portions of Itasca county. In two
towns no less then eighty-tive of the
dead bodies of those who have died of
the disease are reported. Fearful
stories are told of the suffering and
privations of the victims. They are
entirely without medical aid, and
when one is taken down it is almost
certain death. The victum is usually
left alone to his fate, his friends hur-
riedly deserting him to seek safety in
some locality not affected with the
scourge.

NOAH'S ARK.
Discovered Near the Summit OF Mount
Ararat i'm a Good State OF Preserva.

tiOn.
London cablegram /: y paper at
Constantinople announces the dis
covery of Noah's ark. Itappears that
some that some Turkish commissions
ers appointed to investigate the
question of avalanches on Mount
Ararat suddendly came upon gigan-
tic structure of very dark wood pro-
truding from glazier. They made in
quires of the inhabitants. They had
seen it for six years, but had been
afraid to approach it because spirit
of fierce aspect had been seen looking
out of the upper window. The Turkish
commissioners, however, are bold men
not deferred bysnch trities, and they
determed to reach it. Situated as it
was among the Businesses of one OF the
glens of Mount Ararat, it was a work
of enormous difficulty, and was only
after incredible hardships that they
succeeded. The ark one will be glad
to hear, was in good state of preserva-
ton, although the angles-observe, not
the bow or stern-had been good deal
broken in its descent. They recognized
it at once. There was an Englishman
among them who had presumably
read his Bible, and he saw it was made
of the ancient gopher wood of Scrip
ture, which as every one knows grows
only on the plains of the Enphrates.
Effecting an enterance into the struct-
ure, which was painted brown, they
found that the admiralty requirements
for the conveyance of horses had been
carried out, and the interior was di-
vided into partitions fifteen feet high
Into three of these only could they get,
the others being full of ice, and how
far the ark extended into the glacier
they could not tell. If however, on
being uncovered it turns out to 800
cubits long it will go hard with dis
believers in the Book of Genesis.
Needless to say, an American was
soon on the spot, and negotiations
have been entered into with the local
Pasha for its speedy transfer to the
United States.

Bruised Reeds.

Art thou a bruised reed? o come to Christ;
Come while he waits to heal thy every wound,
Thy every wound that grief and sin have MADE
And there are tears no human friend can dry,
And there are griets no human 1rlend can
move, :,
Save One, who is both human and divine
Who heals all wounds and wipes all tears
away.
Is thy light burning dimly? Is thy soul
Cropping among the shadows? Dost thou soui
stand
Afraid to stir lest the frail fiiclzering spark
Shonld leap into extinction? Let him take
Thy heart, ever as a lamp into his hand
And he will hold it steadily and give
The oil required until the flame grows clear.
And light sufficient will be given to thee
To last until the everlasting dawn
Breaks ON thy soul and everlasting day.
