The Scourge at plymouth.

There are 500 persons down with the fever
in Plymouth, Luzerne county, or little less
than 10 per cent. of the whole population.
Since last Friday to date there have been 2J
deaths. The disease is treated by physicians
with small doses of quinine The cold spell is
having wonderfully good effect, and less
cases are reported than Tor week past. The
laboring class are the greatest sufferers by
the scourge, many of them only working
half time, and they are unable to stand the
expense of doctors and druggists bills. The
work of cleaning up still goes ON. In drag,
giug small stream which runs through the
upper part of the town six dead goats five
dogs, and three dead cats were found.
With low water in the stream last
week before the recent rain, the car
casses OF these animals were exposed TO the
sun, sending a stencil into the atmosphere
which was OF itself sufficient to create pesti-
lence Four funerals took place ON Tues
day--three in the Welsh church and one in
st Peters.

From the New York Tribune.
Louis Doscher, South Brooklyn grocer,
has been acquitted OF selling oleomargarine
on the ground that he was deceived, believ-
ing the stuff to be "ine creamery butter"
II such defence Is sufficient to secure an
farce, and the legislature might as well
strike out the $4,000 appropriation for their
enforcement 1t Is n singular fact that after
all the legislation on this subject--a hall
dozen laws having been passed TO prevent
the sale of oleomargarine--little has been &C.
complished. The oleomargarine monopoly
proves to be the most powerful combination
the state has yet tried to cope with.

A Runaway and Upset.

As Alexander ShuItz and daughter, OF
Strasburg, were driving home, on Tuesday
morning in buggy, their horse took fright
near Metzger's tavern from the sight of COW
that was being led behind a wagon. The
buggy was upset and its occupants thrown
out, but not seriously bruised. The horse
was caught at Metzger's tavern not much the

THE moral uses of advanced science are
strikingly illustrated in the testimony that
the electric illumination of large cities is
found to be an added protection against
crime. AS most deeds of violence seek the
cover Of night, it is plain that whatever turns
night to day tends to prevent the operations
of footpads burglars and thieves. BY the
same token, however, byways and alleys,
backyards and sparsely. settled districts,
need to be more brilliantly lighted than the
centres of business and the great thorough
fares of travel.

The adverse criticism &c T1visection by
J. Rendel Harris, professor of New Testa-
nent GrSeh and Photography in the Johns
Hopkins university, of Baltimore, has had
the effect of terminating the career of the
gentleman at that institution. He appears TO
have forgotten that cobbler should stick to
his last, and a Greek professor to his verbs.
But If this was the only cause for the censnre
of the professor by the board Of trustees, as
the Baltimore Sun seems to believe, 1t was
a very childish and unworthy proceeding.
In universities above all other places, thought
should be free as air ; for it Is only by the
jarring of ideas emanating from advanced
thinkers that the world increases its store OF
knowledge.

A CORRESPONDENT of one of the Philadel-
phia papers makes very interesting query
when she asks ifany law ofsociety is violated
by married woman pretixing her maiden
name to that which she obtains from her hus-
band. While at first blush this may seem to
be an indication of strong -mindedness, or
grass-wdowship, the retention of the maiden
name in conf junction with that of the married
cognomen is very proper mode Of indicat-
ing a certain individuality that the wife has
attained apart from her husband. The civil
law contemplates in wedlock a complete
merger of the wife's existence in that of the
husband but if the wife " leaps The rotten
pales of prejudice +" and makes name for
herself i'm literature, art or business, it is at
once elegant and proper that she should pre-
fix her maiden name to her married one.
Examples will readily occur in the names of
Harriet Beecher Stowe and Julia Ward
Howe, both of whom were happily married
while obtaining their literary distinction. In
fine, Mrs. John Smith should be Mrs. Mary
Smith whenever she assumes an individu-
ality entirely apart from her husband.

BALTIMORE rejoices in some very peculiar
councilmen. The other day the first branch
of the city council passed joint resolution,
giving six newspaper reporterss $3.50 each "for
services rendered i'm reporting the proceed
ings of the city council for the sessions of
1ssi-S5," The motive for this wasteful act is
not apparent 1t has been generally sup
posed that newspaper reporters were paid by
their employers for furnishing news. Balti-
more's councilmen conceive it to be their
province to create coordinate employment
for these presumably deserving newspaper
men. They insist upon giving them O
largess in addition to their regular remunera
| ton. This would do credit to their kindnes:
OF heart if they dived into their own pockets
for the additional pay. But they calmly ash
| the city to foot the bill for their whim. Thi
| is absurdity run mad, and those councilmeI
| fayoring the abuse of the interests of the tax
| payer should have their names entered on
blacklist 10 be carefully consulted by tin
voter before he deposits his ballot at the mex
municipal election.

THE late jacob Wykolf Piatt, brother of
Don Piatt, impressed by the rufiianism of
volunteer fire departments in the large cities,
organized and brought into use the paid fire
department, now known to every city of the

would never have been generally successful
save for the invention ofthe steam fire engine.
Perhaps the necessity of the case was the
mother of that invention, too.

CORPUS CHRISTI,

To-day is the festival of Corpus
Christi, the great day of the Roman
Catholic Church. 1t always falls on
the Thursday following Trinity Sun
day. 1t was instituted in 1864 in
honor of the Consecrated Host, and
is chiefly distinguished by imposing
professions. This morning, at the
Roman Catholic Cathedral, high
pontiiical mass was celebrated at 10
O'Clock by the Right Rev. the Lord
Bishop of Olba. Since that hour
the Holy Sacrament has been ex-
posed and will remain so until the
end of the days services. A large
congregation was present at the
service.

NOT SUICIDE.

There was great excitement in the
vicinity of Pacific Hose Co. No. l
house this morning. Soon after
daylight what was supposed to be the
dead body of Chinaman was found
suspended from the caves of the
house. A kanaka shouted out to
him, to ask him if he wanted any
assistance, but there was no response.
Soon afterwards some of the men,
bers of the company came along and
then they found out that it was only
the efligy of n Celestial. 1t was at
once cut down, photograph taken,
and then ordered to be decently
buried. No time as yet has been
fixed for the funeral.

engage IN prayer and church work,
and to tell what the Lord has done
for them. We want to so accept
Jesus that we will be able to come
together and tell what he has done
for us. And you will find that your
meetings will be more interesting il
you select some young man one
week and another young man
another week TO conduct the exer-
clses. You want to commence to
train your members to go out and
invite other people to your meetings,
and contine your meetings TO prayer
and testimony of what the Lord has
done for you. And you will find
that those joining in with you will
be conscious that you have some
thing they have not, and they will
be led TO the Saviour. You will
find, too, that you will be strength
ened to 90 out into the world and
meet temptation, and thus aid in the
work of the individual church to
which you belong. And we always
make it q point to have our meet
ings at time that will not conflict
with the work of the churches; and
after attending your own meetings,
you should go to the church, and
the Lord will bless you.
If / should mention one particular
line of work, | would name the
temperance cause, and l would have
it conducted on the gospel basis. 1
have learned that one grand ele-
ment of success is to confne myself
to the simple things of the gospel,
and when you meet your friends,
tell them the simple things-stick to
the plain simple gospel messages,
such as in st. John, ill.,, 16. My
time is now up and my best wishes
and my prayers will join with yours
that next year will be your best
year.
The officers, with DR.. Hyde, were
appointed a committee to prepare q
series of texts and lessons for the
use of associations.
A resolution was passed that all
associations desiring to be recog-
nized rs connected with this General
Association are required to conform
to its constitution and bylaws. The
meeting adjourned with singing and
prayer to meet again in June, 1886.

JUNE 4th, 1885.
FORENOON.

The H. f. A. met pursuant to
adjournment ut nine O'Clock. Half
an-hour was occupied in devotional
exercises, after which minutes of
yesterdays session were read and
confirmed.
Rev. A. o. Forbes, Corresponding
Secretary, read his report for the
past year.
Five members of this association,
and the wife of another, have died
during the past year, viz. Rev.
w. P. Alexander, Rev. S. c.
Damon, d. d., Rev. d. b. Lyman,
Rev. S. X. Maunaloa, and Mrs. A.
w. Smith, wife of Rev. l.. Smith,
d. ID. OF these, Messrs. Alexander
and Lyman and Mrs. Smith were
Missionaries of the American Board
on these islands for tifty-two years.
DR.. Damon was Seamen's Chaplain
at Honolulu in the employ of the
American Seamen's Friend Society
for forty-two years; and Mr.. Maui
naloa, native Hawaiian, was
young Missionary of this Association
to the Gilbert Islands. He was a
man of unusual promise, and at his
death had been but one year in the
work. The usual work of the chur-
ches and Sunday Schools has been
kept up with gratifying success, not
withstanding the increasing strength
of unfavorablc influences from
abroad.
The Young Peoples Christian
Association work of the native Ha-
waiian Churches has been reorgan-
lied on more strictly Christian
basis, and General Young Peoples
Association formed which meets an
nually in Honolulu at the same time
with the meeting of the General As
ISOLATION of the churches. Five
Pastors have resigned during the
past year, three have accepted calls,
two have been installed, three or
dained, one has Identified the minis
try, and three have been deposed.
There are 81 Hawaiian and six
foreign churches in connection with
this association. OF these, twenty
Hawaiian and two foreign churches
are now without Pastors.
Steady progress is being made in
providing manses fn the churches,
about half of them being so provided
for at present,
Our work among the Chinese is
under the supervision of our Super
intendent appointed for that purpose,
Mr.. f. w. Damon. The work has
been very successful thus far. In
Honolulu, there is large Chinese
Church with Chinese Pastor. There
is also a Chinese Church at Kohala,
Hawaii, with Chinese preacher.
Chinese Colporteurs are also sus-
tanned at Hilo, Hawaii, and on East
Maui Chinese Sabbath Schools and
day schools are maintained in con-
nection with the Chinese Church in
Honolulu. Similar institutions arc
maintained at Kohala and Hilo. Al
evening school is maintained during
the week, and evening services OF
Sundays, for Japanese in Honolulu
