A 6 CircusN Mistake.

Robinson's "Ten Great Shows, Con-
solidated," will be here Tuesday, July
2Sth, and give two performances, one in
the afternoon and one in the evening.
Whether the entire undivided show is
coming or not, will not make much diff
ference, as all who can spare dollar
will want to see it, anyway. But the
circus will undoubtedly lose money on
Wood River, as the management fell into
the blunder Of announcing two perform
mances in one town would have supplied
room and opportunity for all persons in
this region who may wish to attend.
The concern will, because of this mis-
take, lose couple of thousand dollars,
while if it had appeared in one town
only, and that town Haley, would have
cleared that amount. Haley Times.
According to the above the Times
thinks HALEY the only town on Wood
expenses. 1t seems the circus advance
advertising agent took the liberty to
disagree with the Times man and will
bring the first circus and menagerie
ever exhibited in Ketchum. The fact
is. the Times man is jealous Of every
town and enterprise on Wood River
outside of Haley. The circus agent
informed us that he was more fayorably
impressed with Ketchum, from bust
ness standpoint, than any other town
on Wood River.

CLEyELAND,s POSITION.
To Hold Congressional Endorsers Respon-
sible for Appointments.


BosToN, Dec. 27.-.A Washington special
to the Transcript says: 1.-THE President
has been long enough in office to realize
that the position he has assumed hereto
fore of investigating the character and
capacity of every person recommended for
Office has been a mistaken one, besides in
volving more time than he could spare
for such matters. He now proposes to
hold Senators and members of Congress
strictly responsible for their recommends
tions, and whatever charges are preferred
against applicants SO recommended he
will leave to the Senate to determine.
He believes that this division of RESPONSE
bility with the Senate is proper and is
what the Constitution intended. He has
also resolved to take no interest what
ever in the confirmation of those whom he
is not personally satisfied with, leaving
the Senate to confirm or reject. This
change of policy has staggered great
many Senators and members, who have
been in the habit of recommending to him
applicants for Office merely to get rid of
them, and thus throw on him the respon-
sibility of deciding upon their character
and efficiency. or course, this policy is
only to apply TO nominations made at the
instance of Senators, members and others,
and where he has no knowledge of his
own to guide him. So that il any such
nominations turn out wrong and unwise,
the country will know that the fault will
rest not with the President but with those
who impose upon him by such recon-
mendations."

Van Houten,s Rody Found.

Last Saturday morning the body of
John Van Houten, the young man who
had been missing for five weeks, was
found in the canal, near "Hall's old saw
mill, just below the outlet locks in this
city, by Mr.. John Kreader. A wagon
was procured and the body conveyed to
the undertaking establishment of Mr..
Samuel Stockton, IS Coryell street. Coro-
ner II. B. Kitchin was notified and he at
once empanelled jury. who viewed the
remains and then adjourned until even
ing, when they met at the Office of the
Coroner, on Church street, and listened
to the evidence of number of witnesses,
after which a verdict of accidental
drowning was rendered. Mr.. Stockton
prepared the body for burial and on Mon.
day morning funeral services were held
at the residence of Mr.. S., conducted by
Rev. c. II. Woolston, of the Baptist
Church. The services were attended by
a grief-stricken mother, two sisters, a
niece and several friends. Deceased was
in the ED year of his age. His parents
resided near New Market, but he was en-
ployed at the farm of Mrs. S. B. Moore,
near Moore's Station, and was on his way
to his employers place when he met his
untimely death.

Hon. L. Amber Armstrong, Assembly
man from Camden, will introduce at the
coming session of the Legislature an act
authorizing legislative bodies to pay to
the proprietors Of mechanical or manufac-
turing enterprises yearly bounty for a
term not exceeding ten years, and not to
exceed the tax paid by such enterprise to
the municipality. The proposed introduce
tion of this act is the outgrowth of the
efforts made by Camden Councilmen and
business men to induce manufacturers to
locate in that city. 1t was at first pro-
posed to exempt manufactures from taxa
tion for period of years, but the sub
committee of taxpayers and manufac-
turers reported that the plan of exemp-
ton could not legally be put in force.
The proposed act contains the following
provision THAT any municipality de-
signing to take advantage of this act shall,
by ordinance, prescribe the terms and
conditions upon which said bounty shall
be paid, but before any ordinance for
such purposes should take effect, it shall
be approved by q three-fourths vote of
the aforesaid City Council or other legis-
lative body"

Chicago and Its Coming Exhibition.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.--The Sunday
Capital says: "a bill is to be introduced
in Congress to lend the name of the gov
eminent to the international exposition
which is to be held in Chicago In 1892 to
commemorate the four hundredth ami.
versary Of the discovery Of America. The
Chicago people are good deal interested
in this enterprise, and are going to push
1t with the energy that has made that
city. famous. They think that the typi.
cal American city should be the leader
and the location of this commemoration
and consider it quite as appropriate as the
holding of the centennial celebration OF
the Republic at the cradle of liberty. The
exposition will be planned after that OF
Philadelphia, and similar legislation is
desired except that no financial aid OF
guarantee is asked from the government,
the people Of Chicago agreeing to foot ali
the bills"

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Nc
Pherson had a conference with the Presi-
dent Saturday afternoon in reference to
the nominations that are now pending be-
fore the Senate. Senator Blackburn also
had talk with the President on the same
subject. 1t is said the failure of the SEN
ate to act ON any of the nomination. so
far, is causing the President considerable
apprehension, hence his desire to consult
with Democratic Senators in reference to
the matter. The statement is made here
that combination Of the more radical
Republican Senators has been formed for
the purpose of antagonizing many of the
nominations, especially those where re-
movals we're made on the score of "offen-
sive partizanship.

Changes in Rallroad omclals.

]. A. Anderson, Esq, of this city, Su-
perintendent of the Belvidere Division of
the Pennsylvania r. r., has been ap.
pointed Superintendent of the new insur-
ance department eff the Pennsylvania r.
R., and Mr.. Holmes d. Ely, also of this
city, Assistant. This department has
been in process of organization for some
time and Mr.. Anderson has been chair
man of the committee to perfect the plan
and arrange the details. This depart.
ment, as We understand it, is for the pur-
pose of affording life and health insur-
ance to the employees of the entire Penn
sylvania railroad system, but the details
have not yet been made public.
Who will succeed Mr.. Anderson as
Superintendent of the railroad has not yet
been announced.
Some other changes have also been
made In the Superintendent Office. The
coal business of the Belvidere Division
one Of the departments now embraced in
the business of the superintendent office,
will be transferred to Philadelphia, Jan.
LIST, and three of the clerks employed in
that branch at the Office in this town,
will remove to that city-Messrs. Harri-
son Sutphin, James o. Bovine and Harry
Scott.
1t is also rumored that the Superin-
tendent's Office will be removed to Tren-
ton, but while it is probable that that
will ultimately be done, nothing definite
is known about it as yet.

The Illuminated lecture by Prof. H.
d. Raglan, on Christmas night, at Hol-
combe Hall, was charming one, and
those who staid away missed one of the
finest entertainments ever given in this
town. Not only was the lecture enter
tanning, but it was instructive, aud the
pictures were perfect, and gave vivid
representation of "Paris, the Magnifi-
cent" The hall ought to have been
crowded, whereas it was not we'll filed.
Some shallow performance that gave no
instruction would doubtless have filled
the hall.

AN IMPORTANT pR1NCIpLE OF Law

AN imfOlsiANT PRlNClRLE OE LAW.
The Georgia Judge, Mccoy, before
whom application was made for perman-
emit injunction against the declara tion of
the result of the recent prohibition cleo
ton in Atlanta, has refused the applica-
ton. In the opinion in which he an
nounces this decision, the judge lays
down one important principle of law
which may be studied to advantage by
this community. Argument was made
against prohibition, on the ground that it
would utterly ruin the large liquor inter-
est of Atlanta, in which much capital was
invested, and many persons were en-
ployed.
Hundreds of people," said Judge Nc
Coy, "are constantly injured in their
business and property by laws looking to
the protection of the health or morals of
the community, aud such persons, when
| they engage in such occupations, subject
as they are TO police control, take all
! f;s,As or such occupations. The Supreme
Court of the United States has repeated
ly sustained this view." 1t is we'll for
the public to understand this. Some peo-
pie imagine that property interests arc
more sacred than all moral or sanitary
considerations. The law does not so re-
gard them. The same plea was made In
the case of the Board of Health VS.. the
American House, in Trenton, but the
Court held substantially to the same doc.
trine laid down by the Georgia judge.

lhristmas amid the sunday sehonls.

Christmas and the Sunday Schools.
On Christmas Eve, the scholars of the
Presbyterian Sunday School of this city,
were treated to some nice Christmas gifts,
A public service was held in the church,
and the room was beautifully decorated.
In front of the pulpit was an arch, and a
star, with the words "Merry Christmas"
two evergreen trees forming the two
sides. These were decorated so that
they looked as though snow had fallen
upon them. The sight was pretty one.
The exercises consisted of the singing of
some Christmas carols, and addresses by
Rev. Mr.. Lindsey, and the pastor, Rev.
DR.. Studdiford, followed by gifts to the
children of candy, nuts and oranges. The
worthy Superintendent of ths school,
Warren A. Greene, Esq, and the pastor,
received appropriate presents. Every
thing passed off without 'shitcll," and
the scholars voted the occasion worthy of
repetition.
The same evening. the M. E. Sunday
School of this city, also had Christmas
gathering There were recitations and
singing by the infant class, and very de.
lightful singing, too. The room was decor
ted with evergreens, and on the platform
was building, representing an old
fashioned house with wide fire place.
Down the chimney came Santa Claus
with his bundle of presents, and when his
supply gave out, up the chimney he went
for more. And Santa Claus looked like
himself. He filled the billiard the Chin
ney, and was as good natured as be is
said to be. Not only did the children
get presents, but every one present was
treated to cake and lemonade. II was a
very pleasant informal gathering.
The Baptist Sunday School of this city,
did not bold their exercises until Satur-
day evening last. They consisted of some
amusing tableaax, founded upon nursery
rhymes, and the cantata of "Catching
Kriss Kringle' by the Children's Choir.
A crowd gathered far beyond the capaci-
ty of the room, and as many went away
as entered. The children acquitted them
selves creditably and the audience evnced
their pleasure at the performances. A
beautiful star in gas jets and festoons of
evergreens, over the platform, were the
principal decorations. The children at
the close, received fitting presents, and
the pastor and the Superintendent, w
d. L. Robbins, Esq, were not forgotten.
