Come Ont of Doors.
Valuable and Interesting Lecture
 Rev. Mr EFehOlR.

Valuable and Interesting Lecture by |
 Rev. MT. Nichols.
 The hall of the Y. M. O. A. was filled last evening by the members and friends of the association to listen to the Rev. ME. u. F. Nichols lecture on s'Come Out of Doors" After brief word or two in pleasant way of the objects of the association, the lecturer entered at once upon his topic First he spoke of athletics, their use and abuse. The walkists in New York at Madison Square Garden putting so awful strain upon their physical powers. and the bad clement of
 gambling brought into the sport, he spoke of
 as unworthy of imitation or even of counte-
 nance at all He characterized the per-
 formance as being that of mere brute
 beasts. He showed in strong contrast
 the better way of taking heaIthful. exhilarat-
 ing exercise. It is excellent, he said, to
 ought to make collections of some one dis
 tinct matter of study and of use, and thus
 utilize his life experience. Almost unconsci-
 ously and with very little effort such person
 will become an expert. If only collection of postage stamps, coins or minerals, the | collection becomes an object of interest and
 an element of health and enjoyment. He l laid emphatic stress on going outdoors and keeping the eyes open, and the mind open, to the passing scenes around. Botany, as a 1 favorite pursuit of his own. he praised very highly as a useful and delightful occupation outdoors. He told of forty-ive botanical | families that he found with one representa- l tive or more in bloom on the 18th of this
 month in single day's walk to Woodbridge He offered to lecture to botanical class of the members to be found next winter. Walk l ing, as the best exercise, he considered pref
 erable to any other, especially climbing hills and mountains The refreshing invlgorating power of mountain air was it's chief value The sense of difficulty overcome, | of danger past and of the attainment of suo- cess were the charm and excellence of noun taincering. His own experiences among the | Alps and the White mountains in climbing, | and up the face of East Rock, the lecturer 1 described most graphically. change of scene and all surroundings he declared abso-
 lutely necessary for life and health, and to develop our best powers. He urged young
 men to keep in view trip to Europe. He l detailed from his memoranda the expense, the I time, and the great value of it in after life in new ideas and pleasant recollections. He ] was roundly applauded at the close and given a hearty unanimous vote of thanks.

Eleven pupils from Ruby Hill North
have been attending the schools in Eureka
since, and before, Sept. 8. 1888. The
Trustees Of Eureka District will to-day
sddress an official communication to the
Trustees OF Ruby Hill North requesting
inen to pay the tuition OF these pupils.
Inc request will be made simply because
'ae schools in Eureka are running short
aiunds; and, also. in compliance with the
following very plain provision Of the
School law. section 80, second clause:
The School Trustees shall have power to
make arrangements with the Trustees OF
any adjoining district for the attendance
u such children in the school of either
district as may be best accommodated there
~ and to transfer the school moneys due
y sppoftionment to such children, to the
uT.ic! In which they may attend school.
Inc Trustees Of Eureka District, while
, n are entirely willing to allow the Ruby
MI children to attend school here,
w nos solicit their attendance. nor have
.nsy done anything to promote or encour-
~ u. They have simply granted the
r1misslon asked. There is no criticism
eensIever suggested with regard to the
AaOs dill teachers nor any comparison
saA!sVer made between the Ruby Hill and
'as Eureka schools.

Pete Burke strikes It.

1t is stated on the excellent authority OF
M. Kirkpatrick, Esq, that Pete Burke has
sold the patent right to his sewer flusher
for the State Of Illinois for the sum of
500, 900. When Burke was in Eureka
last he showed q reporter of the
SENTINEL q model of his iusher,
which certainly appeared to be a
very useful invention. 1t is constructed
with pipes running along outside
OF the sewer. Jets from these pipes COM
municate with the eve at an angle of
about As degrees. Water forced through a
great many OF these apertures at the
same moment, 1t is calculated, would soon
free a sewer packed full with sand. The
principle of the invention is original and
sound. It Ia not an exaggeration to say
that q perfect and effective plan Of sewer
age would be the most valuable discovery
in the world, for statistics show that more
persons die annually from the poison OF
sewer gas than from ell the other diseases
that flesh is heir to.
