Furnishing q BAlky Horse.

There was no mistake, Puss was
halky. She was sure to have one of
her fits come on if we were in hurry.
And we were in great hurry that at.
ternoon. The boys had been digging
potatoes all the forenoon, and the
wagon-body full On the hillside, and Il
shower coming up.
''lf Puss gets contrary TODAY, we
will have the potatoes we'll washed be-
fore they go INTO the cellar" said Joe,
as he was Harvesting.
Two minutes later as they were
starting for the field, Puss showed her
intention of going to he barn, by per-
sistently setting her face that way.
No amount of coaxing or sugar could
change her decision; and when it
came to blows she lay down, evidently
determined to have her own way OF
make an afternoon job of it. The
great drops were falling thick and
fast. cit is no use," said Joe, so they
carried out an umbrella and paper to
him, and he sat down across her neck,
and declared he would read ner love
story to start her ideas.
Fully 10 minutes passed; Joe was
absorbed in his story. That was his
way, VIXEN he was reading he forgot
everything else. He was reading IA
tiger story. lie was just about where
the tiger was about lealing on mar,
for he was turning the paper-a little
stream of water was running off the
umbrella right down acros, PusS's eve,
when, presto-Puss was Oh her feet,
cantering toward the barn, the UNI
brel!a following after her, and Joe 60
ing on all tours, at full speed in tie
opposite direction.
"Ah! after the tiger?" called his
father. This brought him to his feet,
and when he came in he said that he
really thought the ii ger was a ter him,
till he heard his fathers voice.

THE SERVICES YESTERDAY.
They Were Not Very Well Attended

The fall of snow on Saturday had a
very perceptible influence on the Hal
ley Christians, Yesterday. They have
not, in this city, yet risen to that point
OF excellence where rain, snow and
d'sagreeable weather have no power
to keep them from church. In fact,
and we regret to say so, there is a de.
clded weakness in that regard which
we should like to see corrected. The
attendance at the services yesterday
in the Theater, though good, was
lighter than usual.
In the morning the Rev. E. Pratt
continued his discourses on the Bible.
the subject being "Inspiration," and
in the evening the parable Of the
Pharisee and Publican was expounded.
The text in the morning was II. Tim
othy, III. l6 and II: "A|l Scripture
is given by inspiration and is pro6ta-
bic for doctrine, for rer.oof, for cor
rection and instruction in righteous.
ness, that the man OF God may be per-
feet, and thoroughly furnished for
every good work."
After giving the different theories
OF inspiration and touching on the
doctrine of the Bible, the great pur.
pose of it was explained to be, that
the man of God may he perfect and do
good works. The creed and the doc
trine all work the good works and
thereby prove they arc of God.
Among those habitual worshippers
who stayed away from church were
some prominent mining men, livery
stablemcn, and others. 1t is hoped
that an improvement may be in store
for the future.

AT THE THEATER.
Turkey aud Chicken Shooting After.
Moons, and Roller Skating EVENINGS.

Tommy Leatherdale is getting to
be the boss sport among 'em all. For
some time past he has been running
the roller-skates at the Theater. but
as the holidays approached he con-
cluded to furnish additional amuse-
ments for the boys. So he sent to
Mormondom for 80 nice turkeys
and 100 spring chickens, and opened
competitive shooting matches at the
Theater. The charges are for shoot
ing at chickens, rs cents per shot; at
turkeys, so cents. If more chickens
or turkeys are needed, Mr.. Leatherdale
says that he will supply them, if he
has to telegraph to York state for
them.
In the evening the Theater is de-
voted to roller-skating and general
enjoyment.

Something About Coal OIL.

The Standard Oil Company, of Cleve-
land, Ohio and New York, have APP
pointed lsador Morris 4 Co., of
Haley, their sole agents for the
Wood River country. Tho Standard
Oil Company is the largest manufao-
turer of Illuminating oils in the world,
consequently the cheapest seller. Re-
ject all statements by interested
dealers, and insist on having Pearl
Oil, always kept in stock by the COM
pany or its agents.
In offering to consumers our cele-
brated brand of Pearl Oil, manufac.
tured in Cleveland, we recommend it
for the following reasons:
LIST. It is strictly pure and of East

Sd. 1t is water white, and presents
handsome appearance in addition to
its burning qualities.
4th. Being made by the Earg
est manufacturers of illuminating

wide experience, and is sure to give
