The Rev. SAM JONES, the much-talked-of

THE Rev. SAM JONES, the much-talked-of
evangelist, delivered an address in Nashville
last Sunday for the purpose of raising money
to erect q building for the Young Mems
Christian association of that city. In response
to his earnest appeal over S21 900 was sub
scribed on the spot. During his address he
said Snow, the greatest trouble in the world
is selfishness. There is many man in this
world who has never got further than nomi-
native I, possessive my or mine, objective me-.
And tell you a man is not worth the powder
and lead that it would take to kill him until
he gets over this. There are thousands of
men in the world whose selfishness is starry
ing them to death when they have money
enough to last them 500 years The most
contemplate person in the world is poor
rich man. You hear them say: 4 don't
wantmy boys to go through the hardships I
have gone through. You old goose, you
wouldn't be where you are if it wasn't for
those hardships. tell you when you take
the pressure off your boys you take the very
thing that will make men of them. When a
young man courts a girl, the first thing that is
asked is, How much money has he got, and
what is his capacity for making money
That young man will shine in society just in
proportion to the amount of money he has
got. Brethren, / have found out in these
thirty-seven years of my life that it is not so
much how much money man has got, but
who is the man that has got it, Now I will
say another thing. A selfish life is an I'M
happy one. They'll stay in debt and dodge
around behind it. People are awful liberal
when they haven't got anything, and oh, how
stingy when they have got something

Roswell Flowers Neck-Tie.

From the New York Mail and Express.
I notice that the name of my old friend
Roswell P. Flower, is being mentioned fo
the governorship once more. He viii
probably be one of the two candidates be-
tween whom the convention will make its
final choice, and come out No. 2. They do
say that Mr.. Flower goes out of town to
inspect his political fences and see that they
have not suffered any from the assaults OF
breechy steers like Hill, Chaplin and Corn
ing, he lets his beard grow for couple Of
days, and credible witness informs me
that the object of Mr.. Flowers journeying
can always be determined with infallible
eXactitude by his neck-tie. Mr.. Flower al
ways wears black butterfly" and has
two of them, one new and glossy. one de-
cidedly archaic and rusty. When he wears
the new tie he is going home to Watertown,
or travelling on business not of political
nature; but if on approaching station. Mr..
Fower is seen to slip it off and substitute
the dilapidated and dingy one ere leaving
the train, observant politicians know that
the storm signal is up, that his moccasins
are begemmed with the dust of the war;
path and his tomahawk has razor edger.

FREE SATURDAY AFTERNOONS.

FREE SATURDAY AFTERNOONS.
The churches will probably lend help
Ing hand to the new movement among bus
mess houses for the closing of their estab-
lishments at noon of every Saturday from
the 1st of June to the 1st of September.
The reason why the churches should en-
courage the movement is that it will be a
wonderful aid in securing an observance of
the Sabbath day according to the command
nfent. There must be periods of recreation
in every sort of life. If the holiday doesn't
come during the business week it will come
OH the Sabbath. And that is why the
preachers and the church-going people com
plain so much of their small congregations
and Of what they regard dissertation of
the Sabbath day by vast aiority of people,
who go out from the city to seek rest and
pleasure in the country. If all styles of bust
ness join in a movement to set apart the after
noon of each Saturday as a half holiday
for their employees there would not be the
same disposition manifested to use Sunday
for holiday purposes. For those who week
sitter week go through a monotonous grind
IN the shop OF behind the counter there
must come a day now and then for outdoor
rest and exercise, or the human machine
will soon wear out. When the midsummer
comes with its heat and dust there must be
some time for outing, and, as TALMAGE
says, if it is not taken from mans time il
will be taken from the LORDS time. And
that is why when so many people are COM
PEELED to choose between the church and
the omen air they take the latter.
But, independent of any interest that the
churches have in this matter, there is rea-
son why the business men themselves
should see the wisdom of the Saturday
afternoon closing of their places of business.
1t is demanded on the ground of economics
as well as on the ground of fair
ness. The business people of Lon
don and Manchester understand the
value of it aud consequently free
Saturday afternoons have long prevailed
in those cities. A prominent London mer-
chant explains it by saying that The Saturday
half-holiday system pays in the difference
between cheerful labor and dull labor,
between tired brain and rested brain,

TIE PRIZE FIGHT.

1t has been publicly announced that a
prize fight would take place to-day in st.
Paul or the immediate vicinity This an
nouncement has attracted to the city num-
Der of sporting characters, and last night
pool-selling in public places was going on
in various parts of the city. Prize fighting
is a species of brutality so utterly
repugnant to every decent and humane
sentiment that our laws have declared it
to be a crime and have affixed
penalties for the punishment of those who
engage in it. Bear batting, bull and cock
fighting are cruelties revolving to human
instincts, but to see two men deliberately
walk out into an open field, and for the
the sake of paltry sum of money bruise
and batter each other until they are beyond
recognition is a scene of such barbarous
grossnesS that it would disgrace the lowest
savage tribe. And yet that such
a custom shall be permitted to
prevail in community OF culti-
waited Christian people is a travesty
on our boosted civilization. Independent
of the brutal features, which make prize
fighting abhorrent to humanity, there are
special reasons why the prize fight an
nOunced for to-day should not be allowed
to occur. 1t is violation of the laws Of
Minnesota. And when body of individ-
uals openly proclaim their intention to set
the laws of the state at defiance, there
ought to be a public sentiment back of the
law strong enough to vindicate its majesty
and to prevent the disreputable classes
from overriding it. In the next place
it Is dissertation of the Sabbath
day and an insult to the moral sentiment OF
the community. However much we may
differ in our religious creeds, or whether we
have any fixed religious belief or not there
is an abiding purpose in the American mind
and heart to preserve the sanctity of the
Christian Sabbath. So prominent is this
fact as a distinctive American feature that
a recognition OF the Sabbath and its
sacrednesS is not only prom
inent part of our civil polity but
is in fact one strong foundation
upon which American institutions rest. 1t
was bad enough to tolerate prize fighting on
| secular days, but when it is to be practiced
on Sunday there must come revulsion in
public sentiment that will lead to its sup
preston. Chicago has the reputation of be-
ing the wickedest city in the world, and yet
the sluggers did not dare to defy
American sentiment there by at
tempting to have their mill on
Sunday. 1t is hardly possible that
WILSON and CARDIFF will undertake
to have their smuggling mill within the city
limits. 1t would be an aspersion upon the
character of our city officials to intimate
that they would permit such thing to oc
cur. 1t is known by the sporting men and
those who care to inquire into the matter
that place not far from the city limits has
been fixed upon by the belligerents, and it
ought not to be a very difficult matter for
the law officers of the state, to protect the
majesty of the law and the honor and dig
nifty of the state. to arrest the professed
champions wherever they are found together
to-day within the boundaries of Minnesota.

Rights association loses color when it is
directed to depriving white men of their
property when they have been guilty
of no illegal act, and to drive them out of
territory in which they are bona fide set
tiers. The treatment that the settlers of
these reservations have received is blot on
the government. 1t is not clear which has
the real title to the Winnebago and Crow
Creek reservations-the government or the
Indians. While Attorney General GARLAND
is of impression that the lands were in
Guided in the treaty of 1868 there are a
great many eminent lawyers who take the
opposite view. So the very best that can
be said i'll defense of the Indian claim is
that the whole matter IS yet disputed
question between the Indian and the white
settler. Under these circumstances it does
seem that the government should have some
consideration for the white settler, who
improves his land, earns his living by the
sweat of his brow, and pays his taxes to
support the government.
