In Gerardstown, on Tuesday night,
January 10Th, 1888, JAMES FINLEY,
second son of J. p. and Mrs. Nan
ME f.. Stump, aged 10 years, 7
months and Is days.
BY the death of little Finnie
Stump, which occurred last Tuesday
night, this community has lost one
of its brightest and best boys. Al
though never enjoying robust health,
and often sick, he was brave
hearted, quick -witted and manly
little fellow-a general favorite
among his mates and beloved by all
who knew him. He was cheerful
under all his sufferings and passed
away without struggle.
After a little life of ten summers
on earth, he has gone to live forever
in the beautiful summer land of the
skies. While we mourn our loss, we
may rejoice at his gain, in having
escaped the pains and cares and sor-
rows which ever come with increas-
ing years. aud that he. early hest,
has entered upon the unfading joys
and glories of heaven.
The interment took place in the
Presbyterian graveyard on Thursday
morning and as sorrowing friends
sang his favorite hymn, They are
going down the Valley" he was
laid down to his last, long sleep in
the sure hope of a glorious resurrec-
tion.-TinaeS,

THE North american Reriep for
February opens with II symposium in
which six prominent theologians,
representing as many religious de.
nominations, give expression to their
views upon the questions of the ERE
vision Of Creeds.n Prof. Alexander
Winchell, IN All article entitled "The
Experiment Of Universal Suffrage. -
institutes profound inquiry into
the essential conditions of stable
popular government, which he finds
to be, substantially, virtue and in
telligence; but these conditions, he
maintains, are absolutely unattain-
able under our existing political sys-
TEN, where an electorate, either ig-
norant or vicious, or both, by the
mere force Of superior numbers
practically nullilies the suffrages Of
the better and wiser portion of the
people, whose right to control the
government of the commonwealth is
grounded in the very nature of
things. Bishop McQuaid writes of
the Decay Of Protestantism, and
in essaying to prove his thesis makes
very adolf use of the admissions of
protestant writer's. 1.-The Political
Situation" is the joint title of two
articles, the one by Horatio Sey-
mour, the other by Geo. S. Boutwell,,
who offer their respective views upon
the causes of the recent overthrow
of the Republican party. An article
by DR.. ID. A. Sargent, on Physical
Education in Colleges, )" treats a sub
ject Of prime Importance to the well
fare Of the youths in our higher edu-
cational institutions. Finally, there
are two articles on "The Standard
Oil Company" Senator Camden of
West Virginia defending that cor
poration against its assailants, and

sons for condemning it as a danger

Ostrich Farming.

Some time since Consul Baker
of Buenos Ayres, ventured the
statement that ostrich farming
could be made very profitable in
the Southern and Pacific Coast
States. Since then Mr. Baker has
received Il number of letters asking
for further information. Instead of
answering them separately he has
put them together in a second COM
munication on the subject. He says
he does not think it would be pos
sibe to send ostrich eggs 50 as to
arrive in this country in good con-
dition. The only safe way he says,
is to procure the birds, which are
best shipped when about four
years old. The product of each
bird is usually soc, though the
feathers OF some have sold as high
as $50. Mr.. Baker thinks the
birds would each produce $40
worth of feathers annually in the
Southern States An ostrich two
years old costs about 1915. Deliver
ed at Baltimore, breeders can be
had for $50 per pair For four
yeac-old birds, which may be ex-
pected shortly to breed, the price
will be $1,000 per pair; and for
two year-olds, $3.50 per pair A
pair Of breeders viii year sixty
chicks annually Baltimore Sim
