THE relief squadron sent out by our
government succeeded in rescuing
Lieut.. Greeley and his brave band OF
Attic explorers who left our shores in
the summer of 1881. Only six mem
bers of the gallant crew survive, and
one of the party died soon after the
arrival of the rescuing party. Eight,
teen of the crew died of hardships and
starvation in that rigid cline, and
their bodies were brought home for
burial. Lieut.. Greedy and his surviv'
ing companions are at Newfoundland
and will ship :in few days for New
York, where they will receive an ova'
ton worthy of so daring and brave ex'
plorers.

Ice CAvERNs.-In many countries
there are caverns where ice is contin-
ually forming. One of the most re-
markable of these is that of D0bschan
in Hungary. The cave is divided into
two parts, upper and lower. In the
upper part the roof is of limestone,
and the floor of solid ice. and it is di-
vided into two great halls of Won
drous beauty. The roof of the largest
hall is supported by three enormous
pillars of clear ice, one of which is
hollow, and through which flows a
stream from above, producing strange
reverberations. All about are fantas-
tbs forms of ice resembling human be-
ings, pulpits, monuments and SO on,
giving to the cave most grotesque
appearance. In one end the ice forms
an exact representation of a large cas-
cade as if a running stream with its
spray had suddenly been frozen solid.
On the peak of Teneriffe, an ice cavern
exists that affords permanent source
of supply, and vessels are loaded with
it's ice. Near the village of Stelitze.
in the Carpathian mountains, there is
one of the largest caverns in the
world, and, curiously enough, it freez-
es in summer and melts in winter.
Near Ellenville, New York, are nu-
merous ice caves.

CONGRESSMAN Price has fought per-
sistently against discrimination be-
tween the pensions of officers and pri-
Yates. In discussing bill to increase
the pension of the widow of Com
mander Cushing he closed as follows:

which guide my vote against the
crowd which will go in a given dlrec-
ton, and which has gone in that d.
rection adoZen times in this congress,
and will 90 again simply because they
saw that something is due to position,
TO situation, and to rank. That is the
rock upon which this republic will
split before the child now born shall
die, unless we guard against it. We
are collecting large revenues for the
people in order to distribute it among
privileged classes, because they occu-
nv official positions. | am tired of
| this talk about the great revenue be-
| ing needed in order to properly sus-
! tain public officers of high grade in

| tired of it.
say to you that the man who blacks
| the boots of the President has blood
| Just as good, nerves just as sensitive
as the President himself. While the
President occupies that position pay
him for it. But when he dies would
make no distinction between the wiz
&c of those two men.
The higher the service performed
nv a man the higher we pay him

"For God and Home and NdtiUe Land. "
FROM THE MAIDEN ROCK UNION.


Miss Amy @. Kellogg's lecture on
prohibition delivered before the Maid
en- Rock w. G.. I. u. was rare
treat. Her arguments against high
license, expressed in concise, clear cut
sentences, are unanswerable. Her
diction is elegant, and she is a refined,
highly cultured and gifted speaker.
Miss Kellogg is one of Miss Willard's
dearly loved pupils, and because of
Miss Wizards high esteem for her
especial fitness for this work, she has
been sent out by our State Union to
lecture and organize. and we hope no
one win lose the opportunity of hear

The Boston Herald correspondent at
Chicago, speaking of the labors of the
Democratic platform makers, SAYS
The difficult places were straddled
with an ease that marked the gentle
men composing the committee as po-
litical acrobats of the first water.
"What we want, said one member,
sis votes, and we don't care great
deal how we get them. We have been
losers long enough, and now we would
like to vary the monotony. There is
not much principle in the business
anyway. 1t is a question of politics,
pure and simple. and we know it,

PENMANSHIP.

rBy ]. c. Halstead, teacher of Penmanship in
Hermon Union School,
There is no branch of education
more useful to young man than a
good hand writing, and however well
he may be educated in other branches
he cannot afford to do without it.
Many a man holds lucrative situa-
ton that he could not have secured
had he not been good penman.
Read the column "help wanted" in
a New York daily. The advertise
ments invariably end "reply in your
own handwriting. Young men who
write nicely, and who can compose a
letter according to rules and forms as
taught in our best public schools are
sure to secure a situation while the
one who writes miserable scrawl had
better save his paper and postage than
to try to secure situation by letter.
Again, if good writing is the ladder
upon which men can mount to pleas
ant and lucrative situations, it is also
a stepping stone from which women
can grasp positions of honor and profit
Women by their finer sensibility and
painstaking exactness are particularly
adapted for teachers of penmanshlp.
This field of usefulness is broad, and
the pay is good, but the laborers are
few.
A large number of the young ladies
who are being educated in our aeade
mics and public schools intend to fol-
low teaching. They work faithfully
term after term upon the curriculum
of studies necessary to secure teach
er's license, but they do not learn to
write. They do not learn how to teach
writing. Now, the principal reason
for this palpable neglect of penman-
shin is that the schools in which these
embryo teachers are being educated
have the misfortune to have no pro-
fessors who can WELD graceful pen
or teach penmanship. Were the same
pains taken on the part of teachers to
become qualified, and the same stand
ard of qualifications for teaching pen
manship exacted by school officers as
is required in other branches, the av-
erage quality of writing would be
greatly improved. Writing should be
| taught as an absolute study; its theory
and principles should be developed by
questions and answers as truly az
should the theory and principles Of
geometry. With the improved meth
cd of teaching, pupils are conducted
along the fiowery path of penmanshil
with hardly limit to the degree o
excellence to which they ma rrig1

THE famous Comstock mines of Ne
vada are practically played out. Ar
immence amount of gold has been
taken from those mines, which to-
gether with the silver that the same
state furnished, did much towards
helping us through the civil war, the
resumption of specie payments and
the reduction of the war debt. 1t
is not an unimportant question where
we shall look for gold in years to
come. We may be reduced to the me-
cessity of making money of iron.

The Republican Congressional Con-
vention Sept. I'd at Eau Claire to put
in nomination a candidate for member
of congress in place of Hon. w. t.
Price, whose terms is nearly expired.
The Republicans of this county will
doubtless present as their choice Mr..
Price himself, as his work thus far
has proved very acceptable to his con-
stitutents. He is an able and effec-
tive legislator, and has done all in his
power for the interests of the citizens
of his district, and many old soldiers
gratefully acknowledge his assistance
in procuring pensions for them when
deserving.
