NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
THURSDAY. DECEMBER A, 1884.
Centenary Celehration.


AS the Christmas Conference which or
ganized the Methodist Episcopal church
convened December "a, 1884, and con tin
ued I'D session to January 2, 1885, it is
proposed that the centennial celebration
snail cover the same space OF time. As
we celebrate great spiritual epoch, it
should be of highly spiritual character.
1t is therefore recommended that at
least one religious service be held in all
our churches every day, from December
24th, 1884, to January 2, 1885.
Tho General Conference of 1880, in
providing for the celebration of this Cen
tennial, recommends that all our
preachers and people be careful to make
the year 1884 one of special conservation
to the service of God, and that. as far as
possible, constant and prayerful effort
may be put forth by all to secure the
universal renewal of pure and undefied
religion, to the end that Scriptural hOli-
ness may be spread oyer all lands."
The Bishops, in their circular address,
issued soon after, exhOrt us '"tO humble
ourselves before God, and fervently plead
for that precious baptism of the Holy
Spirit without which nothing good or
great can be accomplished"
These sentiments were reiterated by
the General Conference of 1884, which
recommends that in accordance with the
advice of the Bishops, religious services
be the chief feature of this celebration"
In obedience to these recommendations
the Ashbury Centenary Association sug-
gests the following
PROGRAMME OF THEMES AND EXERCISES

A Rooster Plays a Dual Role.
Montezuma (Ga. Record.

There has occurred q phenomenon in
the barnyard of Mr.. j. j. Turner that is
inexplicable-a vsritable rooster laying
eggs. The rooster goes on the nest every
day, and, after the functions Of the hen
have been performed, he comes off, utters
derisive caekle to the rest of the fowls
and goes on about his business as though
nothing had happened. This peculiar
fowl has been watched closely, and he
has been seen to 60 OH the nest daily.
come off cackling and there was the egg.
No hen was ever seen about the nest.
The fowl has aroused the admiration of
our soul, and is an example worthy of
the emulation of the husbandmaH. lie
has seen the tolls and struggles of the
overworked and greatly oppressed hens
and has come to their rescue.

Blaine and Booty.

BLAINE and LOGAN are not names that
sound well together.
They are no more grateful to ones sense Of
euphony than they are to tho moral sense.
BLAINE and MULLIaAN would seem more
natural. The combination answers the re-
quirements of euphony rather better, and
1t would be much stronger, SO far as morals
are concerned. Mr.. MULLIaAN seems to bo
. man Of sterling qualities.
But the words which most appropriately
typlfy the present aspirations OF the Star
route leaders Of the Republican party are
BLAINE and Booty.
These words burn through every inscrip-
ton on their campaign banners, to the shame
and modification Of honest and independent
Republicans everywhere.

When Mrs. Mary ]. Morgan, the widow OF

gagged Tiffany to decorate her house at 7 East
Twenty-sixth street. Fifteen or twenty OF Mrs.
Morgan's paintings were sent by Tiffany to

Of the collection. valued at $500 were stolen
from Mr.. Wilmurt's workshop one morning.
The locks Of the shop had not been forced and
the windows were secure, and nothing else in
the shop had been disturbed. The police
looked for the pictures In vain.
Yesterday 1t was. reported that the pictures
had been returned to Mrs. Morgan. and were

What Shall the Boy Dot

What sort Of education to give o boy who
will have to make his living, and what
career to prepare him for, are questions
which It is hard to answer. Thousands Of
parents OF sons who are approaching man.
which prompted the following inquiries:
shave young friend who is about 10 years Of age
He has been attending preparatory college for Harvard
Yale for two years and considered well advanced
10 the studies Of arithmetic, geography grammar his
tory. Latin. algebra. and geometry. He enjoys good
health but not robust am afraid he has enough
money to Justify his kOing to college. What would you
advise him 10 dor lie lives In the country, but has no
dssirs to remain there's has taste for the farm lie
fond Of the water. Would you advise him try a
cadetship In tho revenue marine servicsf mention
the above service as It 10 almost impossible to get
place in the navy through Annapolis, 30 few ap
pointed after graduation. would be glad to hear what
you have to say upon the subject"
It would probably be useless to say that
the best place for the boy was on the farm
useless, II not worse; for the chances are
that his aversion to such work springs from
o lack Of aptitude for it. which would pro-
vent his succeeding Us farmer. 1t is EVIL
dent that no would shun manual labor, and
that his friends do not want him to UNDER
take it, and man can only earn his living
on o farm by hard and constant daily work
With his hands.
II he Is to become q professional man, by
all means lot him 20 to college; but II no
enters at Harvard or Yale, his expenses there
will be necessarily lnrge--at least four or five
hundred dollars year; while he will chafe
and fret. and possibly suffer modification,
because he cannot keep pace with his COM
rades who get rid OF three, four, OF five times
as much. II he lives In this vicinity. no
could BIO sent to city college, and, boarding
at home, the cost would be less to him.
As to the revenue marine service. wo ad-
wise him to have nothing to do with 1t. A
boy should not start out In this country as
seeker for public employment merely. He
should look for q career elsewhere; and II no
likes tho water, 1t would be better for him TO
60 on the schoolship to DO trained as
sailor, hard as the llfo Is. Tho supply OF
American seamon Is now small, and an intel
ngent, sober. and skilful sailor is pretty sure
Of always making living.
But q boy who Is not robust is not adapted
to such an employment, and. In truth, 1t is
not, In these days, a very inviting ono for
any youth who has had tho careful nurture
and gentle associations which this boy has
probably enjoyed. Life on tho schoolship
would soon, In all likelihood. be even more
intOlerable for him than life on the farm.
What. then. is there for this boy to do. II
