Henry B. Payne.

senator-EIect from Ohio In Place of Pen- dIeton, Author of the Civil Service BllI.
 Henry B. Payne was born November 30,
 1910, in Madison county, N. Y., and was the
 son of Judge Elisha Payne, one of the early
 settlers of that part of the State. He grad
 uated in 1884 at Hamilton Theological semin.
 ary, which his father founded, and after
 wards read law with Judge Field, formerly
 of the Virginia Court of Appeals, and John
 c. Spencer of Canandaigua He removed to
 Cleveland in 1884 and finished his law studies with the late Sherlock Andrews, wss admitted to the bar the next year, and practiced law until IS46 Since that time he has been en-
 gagged in various extensive business enter prises, and not long ago was 8 stockholder and director in eighteen corporations em- brscing coal, iron, manufacturing and bank ing interests.
 MT. Payne was a presidential elector on the Cass ticket in 1S48 and the next year was elected to the Ohio Senate. In 1851 he was the Democratic caucus nominee for United States senator, but was defeated by BeDja-
 min F. Wade by majority of one. In 1857 MT. Payne was the Democratic candidate for Governor of Ohio against Sal- mon P. Chase, and was defeated by small majority. He was warm friend of Stephen A. Douglass and stood bg him in the Cincin-
 nati convention of 1856, and again at Charleston in 1860. During the war he was an active and consistent Union man. At the Baltimore convention of 1872 he favored the nomination of Horace Greedy. In 1874 he was elected to Congress from the Cleveland district by majority of 2, 500
 over Col R. 0. Parsons, of De
 Golyer contract fame. Mir. Payne was the first Democrat from that dis trict and entered Congress justl in time to take part in the Tilden-Hayss contest. He

One evening the past summer we took an old gentleman over eighty years of age by the arm and slowly moving, for he was both lame and partially blind, led him on to the Green by Trinity church, when he said, 'I saw a horse led by boy walk out along here-pointing to the place-pulling the rope that hoisted the stones for building that church. It was the first time I ever saw a horse hoisting stone and so I remember it. D The next evening we mentioned this incident to another old gentleman also about eighty years of age, and seated in his dressing gown in his arm chair, his rheumatic foot resting on foot rest, when he surprised us by saying. 1T was one of the boys that led the horss." We are now patiently awaiting another surprise, which comes in order-an introduction to the horse himself!

 oP what is left of our winter stock.
 We are all willing to sell such
 goods now without a prOfitO ana
 many kinds even at 8 loss. Stand
 ard makes of bleached cotton do
 not need to be closed out. If any
 one of us sold all our Fruit ot Loom

 whim of the moment may suggest. 1s a device tO make people suppose
 that other goods are being sold In
 like proportion. For our own part
 we have 8 higher opinion of the in- teIIigence of our customers than to see any advantage in such a
 trick. even if we were willing to resort to it.
 Let us suggest 9 way in which 8 judgment may be formed as to where dry goods arc cheapest at this cIOsing-out time. The firm that is most successful in closing out a seasons goods is certain to | be the one that makes the lowest | prices at the right time. Now on this point we can appeal with con- I fidence to the publics for we believe | it is a fact noticed and often re-
 marked by all, that our stock Is | always the cleanest and freshest | looking in town. We have fewer | shOD-WOrn goods than any other | store of the size. For instance to- day we have not yard of last years sateens to sell while others I are showing great stacks of them. | And SO with the winter goods we | are now selling out. We are maks ! ing the prices on them so LOW
 that next winter you will not find
 any old stock offered you by us. or
 none to speak of. People who still
 heed winter underwear, or dress
 goods, or blankets, or anything of
 the kind, will therefore consult
 their own interest by buying of us
 HOW.
 The new stocks opened now are l Ta6ias' MuaIin Underwear. Ham. burg EmbrOideries. and Linens,
 These we do not pretend to be | closing out, but we make sure to I have D, ices on them all at least as I low as the lowest in town.

l The HacksnsAck Cemetery company recently
 refused to permit much respected colored
 man to be buried in their grounds. Cover
 nor Abbett took up the matter and sent a
 special message to the legislature. In this
 message he said the following manly and
 sensible things: The State should not at
 tempt to control individuals in their private
 and social relations as long as they do not interfere with the rights of others. But the legislature should see that the civil and po- l iltlcai rights of all men, whether white or l black, are protected. and when infringed or l violated that punishment should follow. It ought not to be tolerated in this State that | corporation, whose existence depends upon the legislatures will, and whose property is | exempt from taxation because of it's religious uses, should be permitted to make dis tinetion between the white man and the | black man. The church and the friends of the deceased may have 8 remedy in the courts, but the necessity of burial is imme- diate, and the laws delay would render prac- tlcally useless the assertion of any such legal right. l therefore recommend the passage of 8 law which shall make such Q refusal. based on color, criminal offence, with such penalty as shall prevent recurrence of such an act.
 Some intereEt ting facts concerning the growth of the religious sectsin New England have been collected by Rev. Daniel Dorchester for the benefit of the Methodist Historical society. In 176O the number of churches in New England was as follows: Moravian, l; Jewish, |; Quaker, 36; Baptist, 42; Episco- pal AS; Presbyterian, 8; Congregational, 53O. This latter sect predeminated in every State except Rhode Island. where it's churches numbered 13 to the Baptist 20. The num- Der of people attending the churches were; Jews, 70; Moravians, 70; Episcopalians. 12,- 500; Friends, 16,OOO; Baptists, 22,Oo0; no sect. 10000; thus leaving the Congregation alists 44O, 900 in total of 800, GOO inhabi- tants. At the same date in the three leading middle States, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, we find the churches divided as follows: Presbyterian, "A; Dutch Reformed, 20; Lutheran, 6; French Protestant, ?; Independent, 2; Bap- tist, 12; Episcopal, 16. In these three States the population was then $50, ,000, or one church for every 2,65O inhabitants; while in New England the average was one church for every 75O souls. There were four times as many people for each church in the middle States as in New England, and this is one reason why Methodism spread so rapidly in those States From 1760 to 1792 the forty two Bsptist churches in New England in creased to 266 in 1792, with IF, 174 members, g number equal to that of the Methsdists in 1872

A bill for high license is before the New York assembly. It provides that the fee for selling strong liquor shall be $500, and for selling malt liquors $250. The bill is sup ported by many of the temperance organiza- tions and by those who believe that the cause of nine-tenths of the crime in the State should be made to pay fair proportion of the expenses. The bill has received strong support in Brooklyn. Henry Ward Bsecher is heartily in favor of it.

An incident of one of these calls the doctor, who was fond of the humorous, used to relate with relish. Said Croswsll kindly, ''pm afraid, Grimes, you are not industrious-that you do not love to work" Upon that Grimes. who was gentle in his manner, stepped up to the great man, and tapping him on his shoulder, softly replied, Doctor, you and I are just there alike; you don't want to work and don't want to work the truth is, Doctor, we both know too much to work.

The difficulties of the Mormon problem are not lessened by the fact that the actual polygamists are but small part of the whole Mormon church. Elder Caine, who is the delegate in Congress from Utah, says that there are 13O, GOO Mormons in the Territory, while the Edmunds commission, after stretch ing it's powers to the utmost, was able to dis franchise, on the ground of their having practiced polygamy at any time, only 12 900, or not one in ten of the population. The Mormons who believe in polygamy without practising it can, therefore, easily maintain the hierarchy in power if every actual polyg amist is denied any share in the government.
 The Uniform school-book bill introduced in the Ohio legislature provides for a State school board composed of the Governor, Secretary of State. Attorney General and State schoo' commissioner, whose duty shall be to select from the school books coming before them under the provisions of the bill 'those that shall be the cheapest and best adapted for use in the schools of Ohio." For the purpose of securing material from which the seleo- ton is to be made, advertisements are to be published inviting sealed proposals for fur nishing complete series of school books for use in the common schools of the State. The State board is to open the proposals and select .sthe books offered at the the lowest pxice.n The books, when selected. are to be exclusively in use for the ensuing five years. The Stats board is directed to fix the retai price for each book at not over ten per cent. advance on the publishers accepted offer.
 This retail price is to be printed on the cover
 of each book. and penalty of from $5 to e2O for each offence is imposed on every person selling the book for more than the
 printed rate.
