One very important precedent has been
established in religious circles. A congrega-
ton atScranton, Penn, before whom an active
church member was arraigned upon charge
OF being wording and fraudulent doctor,
decided after great deal of discussion that
the worldly-minded member must 90, and
accordingly fired him out. There is some-
thing absolutely refreshing as well as encour-
aging in the result of this case. When the
time comes that the groceryman who sands
his sugar will not be allowed to lead in the
prayer meeting, or the dairynan who works
lard and tallow into his butter cannot be
elected church deacon, we expect to see the
Christian church establish itself on frmer
basis than that on which it now rests.
The membership may not be so
numerous, but it will improve in
quality all that it lacks in quantity. There
are great many people who think that by
helping church endowments they are cover
ing up multitude Of sins. What pure and
undefiled religion wants is. a broad line
drawn between the church and the exchange.
What the world wants to see is the church
possessed of sufficient discriminating kuowl-
edge to distinguish saint from a sinner.

WHY THEY LOYE PByITp

1t is not much wonder that the Indiana
Democrats took the defeat of little Phil
THOMPSON to heart almost as much as the
Kenruckians did. They know something OF
his services in the last presidential election
and are them selves the beneficiaries of his
labor When Indiana was fateful state and
the Democratic party in the state seemed lit
tie better than mere inorganic mob, it was
PHIL THOMPSON who took hold of the canvass
in that state and quietly but effectively or
ganiZed victory for the national Democracy.
Day and night he worked necessarily. Iu a
secluded chamber Of the Bates house in In
dianapolis he mapped out the secret organi-
cation which proved such wonderful sue
cess. HENDRICKS, VOORHEES,, MCDONALD and
the leaders of indiana Democracy were in
frequent consultation with him. They knew
what he was doing, and having confidence
in his sagacity left the planning and execu-
ton of the detais of the organization to
THOMPSON. 1t is not surprise then that
when the Kentucky people brought him for
ward for an important position the Indi-
ana politicians should rush forward to in 1orse
him. Mr.. THOMPSON had stood by them in
the hour of greatest need, and it speaks well
for human nature that they stand by him
now.

the cause of the trip but it is said to be in

Northern Pacific to establish depot about

give the established town depot and allow

interested in the case, and has most likely
gone out to FIX up affairs.

TnDEx sparks continue to fly.

Ex-SEcRETARY RoBEsoS takes rather rose
colored view of the results of Mr.. CLEvE-
LANDS administration. The ex-secretary Of
the navy has grown so fat and good-natured
from his profits in the marine service he is
perfectly willing that parties shall break up
and machine politics be no more. He
has made all that he can ever hope
to get out of them, and there
is something very beautiful in his rcsigna-
nation to the recasting Of party lines, which
he sees as among the inevitable results of
the present administration. Mr. RoBEsoS,
however, mistakes the work of this admins
tratiou. 1t is not destroying parties. it is
purifying them. Publication of politics is
something so foreign to Mr.. ROBEsoN's CON
cepton of political matters that his mistake
is easily explained.

The Manitoba road took out over its line
yesterday over hundred emgrants in two
second-c!ass sleepers. They came from the
Eastern states and Canada and were bound
for points in the Red river valley and Mani
toba. They were all in all the finest lot who
ever came to the West, so it is said by those
who saw the departure of the train. They
appeared well-to do, and it was plain to see
that the sx-feet-high sons were graduates
from the Eastern soil They say that all
through the East the old and established
farmers are fitting out their sons with all
necessaries to begin life for themselves in
the West, and the number coming out this
season will be larger than any heretofore.
The prosperity which the West has enjoyed
the past season, and the splendid crop of
wheat the Western farmers were fortunate
enough to have, is so enticing to the people
in the East that those who can leave without
any inconvenience will come bag and bag
gage.

A KANSAS CITY correspondent suggests the
use of cement for burial purposes. He pro-
poses to I'll the bottom Of the coffin with a
layer of cement and after the cofliu has been
lowered into the grave To cover the sides and
surface of the body with the same material.
The moisture of the earth will be drawn into
the cement and in little while will be as
hard as a stone, in which ''every lineament
will remain impressed forever as the ashes
of Pompei have retained for ages the forms
of the victims of that great burial" 1t is
also suggested by the correspondent that
when there is fear that the body may be in
terfered with by medical colleges the &C.
ment at time of burial may be slightly moist
ened with water, whose result will be that the
body will be surrounded by an impregnable
protection in a few hours.
