Louisville is Just now the scene oil en-
deayor OF an evangelist ofthe diamond
in.the.rough variety. Rev. Steve Hol,
combe does not speak the English lan'
guage with elegance, but be utters his ex'
hortations with an earnest ieryor that
breaks IFS way into hearts hardened with
the vices that most degrade. He seeks
the abandoned in their haunts, talks to
them as brother sud begs them to turn
with him to hope tfo,n despair.
Last Sunday, while the Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher ives explaining away the
Bible for the benefit Of congregation OF
the fashionable, the Rev. Steve Holcombe
was preaching in locality given up to
dissolute women, preaching from Matthew
ri, 2s:-"Come unto me all We that are
weary and heavy laden and will give
YOU rcst"-and from this he told them the
simple story Of the love OF Jesus for the
weak and sinful. The women gathered
about him, sat on their door steps, stood
in the doors, locked out Of their windows.
Tears trickied down faces hardened with
sin.
Tie evangelist begged the men and
womenwho listened to him to leave of
their evil life. He did not leave OF there.
'"An' I'll say this,p he added with a
warmth OF sympathetic feeling, I'll any of
youwill quit, come out and 60 home with
me. I'll take care Of as many as will
come" A sobbing woman said she would
go.
This Is the practical way 10 s'rescae the
perishing". tits very easy TO say to the
outcasts OF society, "Go.p Where shall
they go2 Who will receive the woman
whose life has been q shame to her sexf
Who will give her a chance to be better
and to do. better. Come is the word
to speak to her. Itopens refuge and
tells her that the world is not deaf and
dead to her woe. Under the best eircum-
stances her path back to a better life will
be hard and steep, but with hand 10
help and lead It Is not an impossible way.
With no arm to lean upon sin ends its
wages in death.

In Maine as Applied TO the Grand Army o

In Maine as Applied 70 the Grand Army OF
the Republic.
The National Encampment Of the g. A.
r. Is now in session at Portland, Me.
The 'eI.aw and Order League" has is.
sued circulars stating that all liquor con-
signed to members Of the Grand Army
will be promptly seized. A proposition
made BY the same committee, thatall con-
signments to members Of the Grand Army

ten. and IL after inspection by Comman.
.der.in.C Chief Kountz, they beiiound to
contain any liquor, that they not be for
warded TO the consiguees, met with In
slant opposition, and the TACT OF such 9
proposition having been made has caused
something Of rebellious spirit TO arise,
and tho visitors openly declare their inten-
dion resist any such arbitrary action should
Il be attempted. It 10 not denied that
there arc Quantities Of liquor now en-
route, consigned to members OF the Grand
Army who are either BOW here, or to ar
rive, and prominent officers OF the ergani.
cation declare they intend TO take and
keep possession Of their consgnments.
The constant agitation OF this subject re-
Gently By the temperance leaders has
caused II TO take apiece OF paramount inl
teTest on all sides
On Monday night the following was sent
from Newport, VI: To the Associated
Press: Two thousand comrades Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic have read
the dispatches regarding the appointment
OF special police to care for the lives and
property OF the people Of Portland. We
cali your attention to the TACT that in times
psst we were the police Of the nation, and
twenty years has not diminished our re-
spect for law and order. We come un-
armed, and on a peaceful mission, as your
guests, andrespectiully ask permission to
enter YOUR city uninolssted by special po-
| lice or special investigating committees.

Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kansas,
Iowa, Colorado, Minnesota, Oregon, Da-
kota, Missouri, Nebraska AID Michigan.
The peculiar wording OF the circulars
sent out by the advocates Of temperance
seems 10 have had the effect Of creating
| no small degree OF resentment on the part
Of visitors, and many Of thelp claim
that to issue such circular to body OF
men 90 old In years, In service and IN dis
tipguished honors as that OF the G. A. r.

BABY CARRIAGES,
Some sf the yovelties-A Wide Range Of

The mild, sunny days Of the past week have
encouraged anxious mothers to be;hink them
selves of some mode of perambularion for
their little ones, as the balmy days of spring
and early summer wonderfully invigora,e the
baby. The baby carriage. therefore 10 an
indispensable article in baby land, and the
wits and ingenuity of man are taxed to their
utmost to devise the best. prettest and most
comfortable carriages for the use of the ris-
ing generation SO every season brings with
it new styles and patterns Of these miniature
vehicles. The new departure for last year
was the regular style rattan carriage with a
hood made also of rattan. lined and quilted
with satin in place of the silk parasol that has
become so popular. These hood carriages
are Of the expensive sort, however. the
cheapest, being $40 or s25. This year brings
novelty in the shape Of a parasol made of
rattan lined with silk, making a very neat
appearance. Carriages of this description range
from SIG to $50 in price. The canopy top and
regular silk parasols are the most prevailing
styles, the former having side curtains, m king
a secure carriage for all weather. Prices of
these carriage range from So to s44. but the
average buyer generally selects a medium
priced persmbulator, say at $40, Sl2, or SIS.
although s25 is often reached But in
larger cities $50, and even $50. are the aver
age prices paid. The Stat body and rattan
carriages are the most popular now, about as
MANY being sold of one variety as the other
