Rev. Messrs. Lindsay and Williams desire
to call attention to the fact that their
excursion as advertised in this paper, carries
people through the Notch, past Crawford's,
and on to Fabyans. Excursionists who go to
the White Mountains on Monday, Sept Goth,
will find that their tickets do not stop them
at North CONWAY, bnt that their journey is to
continue. North Conway lies nearly at the
foot of the mountains; but to reach Fabyans
one rides some two hours further through the
widest annd grandest scenery to be found in
the mountains. Those who have been there
say that the best time TO visit the mountains
is in the early dsde of October after this frost
has tinged the foliage with the purple and
gold of Autumn.

The st. John cranks wanted to helE
prohibition--oh, SO much. They were
told that the result of their course would
be to put it back twenty years. But they
were so wise that they knew great deal
more-every one of them-than all the
anti-St. John temperance men together.
The results, however, thus far, since the
presidential election have shown that
their wisdom was foolishncss. From every
where reports come of the failure of tenn
perance efforts. The temperance forces
arc divided and have no good will, the
one toward the other. This was the in
evitable result of the st. John movement.
In Plainfield, last week, the municipal
election took place, and in town where
the Mabee and English revival won sew
eral hundred drunkards, the license men
carried the election by two hundred ma
jority. One of the local papers attributes
the result to the antagonism between the
two factions of the temperance men. Sim
liar reports come from other towns.

During the month of November there
was an increase Of the public debt of
$3.50, 600. The receipts were $4,000, 900
less than they were during November
last year, and this year in November 49,
600, 900 have been disbursed in pensions.
This is the first time since July 1, 1870,
that the monthly statement has not
shown steady decrease in the public
debt.

be declined, and it would certainly be n
graceful method of testifying to the ma

Growth OF THE PENSION LIsT.-The
enormous growth of the pension list and
the exhausting draft upon the public
purse necessary to pay this form Of obli-
cation will be realized when it is known
that for the present quarter 1900, O00
are demanded. In order to prevent an
unfavorable debt statement for November
30, 200, 600 of this amount werc carried
over to December, yet notwithstanding
this the public debt was increased instead
of being reduced as usual.
The bill, which has passed the Senate,
and is now on the House calendar, will
increase the present pension payments
about $25, 900, 900 a year If it becomes q
law. The filibustering in the House last
winter against this measure because Of
} the Senate amendments does not, how
ever, argue fayorably for its passage.

Tobacco raising is rapidly getting un.
profitable in Pennsylvania. The crop in
Lancaster, Bucks and those adjoining
counties was very large this year, but
those who raise it aver that there is prac-
tically no sale for it. 1t would appear
that some new quality of tobacco is being
tried by the cigar makers for wrappers,
leaving the Pennsylvania weed out in the
cold. If it is really true that tobacco
raising will have to be discontinued un
less there is change in the market il
will make quite a hole in the finances oil

This week the centenary of Methodism
will be celebrated at Baltimore by about
600 delegates appointed by tho annual
conference. The first Methodist society
was established in this country in 17G6,
and the centennial anniversary of that
event was celebrated in 1866. The pre-
sent celebration answers to the political
centennial of 1876. Prior to 1854 the
Methodsts in this country were under
the government of the parent church in
England. In that year the American
church was organized and home govern
ment begun. This is what is now being
celebrated.

Senator Mcpherson has been talking
with reporter of the Tribune, and 10
the course of the conversation confirmed
the opinion previously given out from Re
publican sources, that up to Friday be-
fore election New Jersey was Republican.
I'm Hudson County" the Senator says.
Eve found 1900 Irish Democrats who
were prepared to vote the Republican,
ticket. This was only one county, and
we evidently couldn't stand that. We
went to work vigorously, and fortunately
the Burchard matter helped us out. l
think that remark may be set down, with
out exaggeration, as changing 3,ooo to
1000 from the Republicans He thinks,
however, that the change in the current
in New York was the other way, and
that the State ten days before election
would have given Cleveland larger ma
iority than 1t did. This change in favor
OF the Republicans the Senator attributes
to Mr.. Blaine's wonderfully adroit
speeches."

1t is the duty of the Health Boards to

through the authorities and individual
citizen action, to prevent the inroads and

but a man can get a partial

ing of Christmas to mother

garments that a heartless
factory makes. A bit of a
cloak, for example. of snowy
wool. You see no fabric.
The fleece itself surrounds
the tender lambkin, holds her
in its soft embrace, and hangs
in flowing roundness. The
thought of cold is impossible
in that depth of wool E; of
hardness too. What a shield
between the baby and the
world What another world

does baby think of the
world? Nothing but soft
ness; nothing but mothers
