CAMP ISHAM.

The Presidential Party Encamp on the
Gros Ventres River-The Usual Ex-
pIoits.
CAMP IsHAM, GRos VENTRE RIVER, Wy,
Aug. IA, via Fort Washakie, Wy, Aug. 18.
The President and party left Camp Ling
coin, at Lincoln pass, this morning at $50
and continued the n arch down the tribu-
taries of the Gros Ventre and the main
stream, a distance of nineteen miles, going
into camp at Grassy Point, on the main
river, which had been named Camp Isham,
in honor of Hon. Edward Isham, of
Chicago.
Camp Lincoln was beautiful spot,
presenting to the eye towards the east and
north all the grandeur of the Shoshone
| range of snow-clad mountains, and west
and south the snow-capped peaks of the
Gros Ventre ranges. Pines and tamaracks
cover the base and lower lines of ranges
I opening into the beautiful, grassy parks.
| The descent down the mountains to the
valley of the Gros Ventre was rugged, but
was accom- plished by the president and
party without accident, they only dis
mounting at one steep and difficult place.
As we approached Camp Isham a depres-
sion in the range enabled Us to get visw
of the lofty peaks of Teton range, at the
base of which we will encamp tomorrow
night.
Secretary ELincoln and Capt Clark
with two Indians started early this fore
noon in pursuit of elk. They will render
no doubt, a good account by bringing into
camp tonight the results of fine days
hunt in country which abounds in game.
The president and the balance of the
party by reason of both exercise and rest
which their trip had given them are in ex-
cellent health and spirits and not in the
least fatigued by their ride on horseback.
The weather Is cool, delicious and invigor-
| ating and the scenery grand.

| physical perfection, or true manliness,
whichever you prefer, and for any exhibi
| tion of 1t they are more willing to pay
than anything that can be done with the
head, except that head be used to stop Sui
livan's blows under the Queensbury rules.
I am sorry for those who are made uncom-
Portable by these undeniable facts but I
consider myself on the side of the large
majority, ard therefore right. TIE ques-
tion has often been debated whether physi-
cal and mental development can be
made to keep pace with each other
or whether one is Incompatible
with the other. Hens sana, in corpore sdno
a sound mind in a sound body settles
that question, for it is no less old than true.
The importance of health first and over a l
intellectual qualification is no longer a
snbject of discussion. Such question is
not raised any more except by cranks,
who haYe outlived their usefulness. In
all the leading institutions of learning
bodily exercise is encouraged, and in
structors are employed to guide the begin
ner in courses of syste matic, gr adually de-
veloping practices, tending to uniform de-
velopment of the body. In Europe, in
Germany more particularly, there are but
four schools to be found in which physical
training is not given its full
share of attention; in fact in
nearly all the schools in Germany the reg
ular calisthenic and other exercises are
compulsory, IN the female as we'll as the
male departments. In the colleges in all
countries many of the useless branches,
such as dead languages, ETC., which are of
no earthly use to one in thousand, are
now Topped off, and the time is given to
the gymnasium, the ball field and rowing,
and wholesome and necessary change
it is.
Life is motion, and the lack of exercise
Is the greatest promoter of disease-the
overlooking of the stomach, and doing
nothing to work off the excess of fuel in
the furnace. The desire to exercise the
body is innate with every living thing and
it is wrong to check the inclination, as it is
but one of the demands of nature to main
tain health and increase strength.
Now claim that any exhibition which
arouses young people from the Iethargic
condition into which so many are prone to
fall,is great ODD done. The rugged health
and fine muscular development of train
ed athletes when contrasted with the pale,
languid, house-dweller, must and does Gre
ate wish for change of condition, and
when the fact is now daily demonstrated
that any one can develop muscle and in
crease the general health by temperance
in all things, and plenty of air and exer-
else, why should we refuse to countenance
exhibitions of strength and skill which are
as good incentives to physical culture as
books and illustrations can possibly be to
the development of the mind.
Good muscle, good lung power, vigor-
Gus circulation and strong stomach first.
Then "put head on it," (not la Sulli
van,) but with all the moral suasion and
mental fitness you are capable of.

LABOR INVESTIGATIONS.

The Labor and Education Committeeman
Intelligent Witness on the Stand-LabOr
Strikes Never Fail IN Beneficial Results
to the WOrkmen-A National Eight Hour
Law Would be Remedial.
New YORK, Aug. 19.--The United States
senate sub committee of labor and educa-
tion continued its session to-day. Samuel
Gompers, president of the AmaIgami ted
Trades and Labor unions, of this city, VIZ
recalled. He claimed the increased pre-
ductivity in England, consequent upon
improvement in machinery, was the direct
result of reduction in hours of labor, and
in this country where the hours of labor
ware restricteo,9s in the case in MassachU-
setts where there was ten hour law gov
erning all textile industries, the statistics
showed the productivity was much greater
than in other states where employers could
work their men for any time. Aside from
that, the factories in Massachusetts pro-
duce more yarn 10 the spindle and more
cloth to the loom than in Rhode Island or
Connecticut.
The witness said that although many of
the strikes that had taken place during
recent years had failed, sometimes from
insufficient organization and sometimes
from bad management, he thought they
should not be condemned as injurious to
the workingman. As general rule they
had always redounded to the benefit of the
laboring class. Statistics of strikes in
this country showed, in majority
of cases, that the strikers
had been successful. During the last two
years there had been 16O strikes, and all
were won or compromised excepting
twenty, which were lost or unaccounted
for.
In the Cigar Makers union it was Gus
tomary to make an equalization of funds
of each society. The recent telegraphers'
strike failed, as the first attempt of all
trade organizations have done, but the ex-
perience gained would be useful to them
in future movements.
Gompers denied that the socialistic ele-
ment had gained control of all the labor
organizations of this country. It might
be the case with few smaller
ones, but the object of the great
unions was only to secure benefits for their
members by mutual combination and by
legitimate means. To remedy the existing
evils he recommended the enforcement of
a national eight hour law, and an act to
legal1ze interpretations of trades unions
throughout the country. The investigation
will be continued next Monday

Fine Donation.

The beautiful organ lately presented by
Mr.. Edward Langevin to st. Louis (French)
congregation, whose church is at the cor
ner of Wabashaw and Exchange streets,
was tried last evening by number of Or
ganists invited for that purpose, and all of
them unanimously expressed themselves as
exceedingly we'll pleased with the iustru-
ment, its action and tone. The organ was
manufactured by the we'll known house of
Hooks & Hastings, of Boston, and is indeed
very fine piece of work. The instrument
will be played to-day at 10 o'clock mass in
that church, and all amateurs and friends
are cordially invited to be present. The
French congregation is to be Congratulated
at receiving such fine gift, which will
doubtless be appreciated, and Mr.. Lam
gevin has again shown his usual spirit of
enterprise and generosity in the presenta-
tion of so useful an instrument.

DR.. 70lDt0ge's Lecture.

Rev. DR.. Talmage, at Market hall, last
Wednesday evening, was rare entertain
ment The audience was large, and gave
evidence of the highest enjoyment. The
gifted speaker was amusing and grave by
turn-; his sallie5 were greeted with hearth
est applause,and his eloquent depictions OF
the vital interests of life were received with
the closest and most interested atten-
tion. The Big Blunders'' of life
were portrayed by a master
hand, and most thrilling effect BIunder
first was in choosing a wrong profession
or position in life. Each one should seek
the place and calling IN life to which he
is adapted and stick to it with resistless
grasp. Indulgence in bad temper was
fatal blunder, and often led to disappoint-
ed hopes and ruin, while a genial, sunny
temper, led to popularity and success.
Another blunder was to give oneself up to
overwork, to overtaxed physical and mental
powers, failing to take proper relaxation
and recreation. Another blunder occurred
in making wrong selection of compan-
ion for married life. This was really the
most powerful and eloquent portion of his
lecture. His portrayal of the misery of
diseordant home and the happiness and Sc
renity of home where true concord aud
companionship reigned, thrilled.
His portrait of home
of love and fidelity was
dramatic and pathetic to the highest de-
gree His picture of the aged mother, of
her labors and sacrifices for her children,
and " nat was due from them to her II her
failing years was full of touching pathos
that went to every heart. The wife could
make or mar the fortunes of her husband.
true wife who could enter into ali the
plans, purposes, efforts, successes, Or mis-

words in regard to the Importance Of
practically instead of vapid frivolity in
the teachings and education of children,
sons to manly employments, daughters
to household duties, as we'll as to refined
adornments were golden words ofinvaluabIe
suggestion. The lecture had genial
setting of humor, and anecdote by
way of illustration; and needed and prac-
ticed cannot fail to make better men and
better women of all who heard it. Mr..
Talmage is doing good work; is filling

Can any statesman, no matter what his

Some will say that all this proves moth
ing. Who are those ''some?" Are they
not the over-civilized, the few whose meas

expense of their physical qualities? Are
they not those who are disappointed in
their aims, and who have set too high
value on their super developed

they are willing to judge the world only
by their own exaltation and refuse to admit
of any other standard?
