athlete. His education was finished In
Europe. In knowledge OF Latin ana
Greek he was well equipped; he was
good Hebrew scholar. mathematician,
and a machinist. Having been long
troubled with asthma, he went TO Eu-
rope, and while there conceived the idea
of founding a religious order, which
should do among men mucn the same
sort of work as is done by sisters IN the
church among women. 1t should con-
sist of men who would give up the
world and sacrifice their lives in doing
good. A son of Bishop Huntington
heard of this idea and offered his ser
vices in carrying it out. Four years
ago these two young men, neither more
than q wears of age, met in New York
and began their monastic life.
Their labors and devotion have con-
tinued during this period. At present
the number which has entered the
order is four. The Father is the young
Princeton graduate who was its foun-
der-the Rev. Robert S. Dod. Of late
his old attacks of illness have returned,
and last summer he went to Texas,
where he has since been on ranch.
Young Mr.. Huntington recently took
upon himself the VOWS of the order,
and was received by Assistant Bishop
Potter. There have been two other
members of the order, one OF whom re-
signed year ago and is now in the
Episcopalian ministry.
In order to belong to the Holy Cross
a promise is required to surrender for
ever all that one possesses OF worldly
property, to refrain from marriage, to
follow the example of the Lord in
thought, and word, and deed, and to
give perfect obedience to the rules of
the order and the commands of its SUI
periors. In following out their obli-
cations, the members live with exceed
ing plainness. No carpets are on the
floors, only the plainest furniture in
the rooms. and only the simplest food
lies on the table. The order expects
some time to have a building of its own.
in which its ideas can be more perfect
ly carried out.
The daily life of these men is occu-
pied in prayer and missionary work on
the east side of the city. 1t is their
custom not to turn aside from the
straight path to'and from their labor.
They shun society and never attend
public meetings Their work is practi-
cal. Besides teaching in the city mis-
sion schools, they last summer founded
school in the country where boys
might be taught trades. and they have
now in mind home for inebriates.

sistance they are sent to the cellar,

THE LOCAL ISSUE.

The Republicans were first in the field
with full city ticket, and it was a good
one. Each man nominated is unexcep-
t:0nable in character and in personal rec
ord, and each is honest and capable. The
Democrats, on the other hand, were last
in the field. and in making out their ticket
they have made square issue with the
orderly, decent element Of our city. Their
candidates for the offices of mayor and
marshal squarely represent the saloon in
terest, and it is more than hinted that
Jake Smith will be furnished with an
abundance Of Doodle to be used for the
purchase of voters.
The question now presented to the citi-
zens Of Springfield is whether they will
allow men representing, squarely, bad
principles, to be chosen to our city offices
by corrupt methods The Democrats have
for their campaign cry-The Barrel and
the Bottle-and will try to choose set of
men who teiU not enforce the laws or try
to maintain public order, or protect the
citizen from the sources Of poverty, pau
perism and crime! The Republicans have
selected good, clean, strong men, who will
enforce the laws aud maintain peace and
good order in community,

The large firm of Warder, Bushnell 4 Gless-
ner, Of Chicago, engaged in the manufacture
of moving and reapipg machines, has
been the first in this country to extend
these methods to private business. Find
ing the old ways OF selecting clerks aud
agents yeIatious and inadequate, Mr.. Gless-
uer, of that firm, after studying the forms
used in the civil service examinations at Chi
cago, had an application blank and questions
printed for the private use of The firm. The
practical results of their use have been excel
lent A member OF the firm states that
through them be can leeru as much about an
applicant in an hour as under the old way of
selecting clerks he could learn by employing
one month The firm proposes to develop
the new experiment, and the time may not
be distant when the practical methods ap-
proved in the public service may have their
most extensive application in private busi-
ness and in that Of great corporations.
Every one seeking the Government service
where the rules apply must set forth under
oath in his application facts which enable
pretty accurate judgment to be formed con-
cerning his character, education and general
capacity, and must, in addition, state what
has been his business and position each year
during the preceding five years. 1t is mani

A NEW MONASTIC ORDER.
Commodore Stockton's Grandson the
Founder of the Episcopal Monks.

In Thirteenth street, few blocks
east of Third al enue, at the end of a
long row of similarly-built houses,
stands plain, three-story brown-stone
building. A silver plate, larger than
ordinary, with the inscription, "Holy
Cross: Clergy House." beneath small
black cross. gives the only clew to the
use to which it is put.
The founder of the order is young
graduate of the late Commodore Stock
ton. Until 10 years of age he had lived
almost entirely in the open air on New
Jersey hills and i'll Virginia. He loved
to hunt and fish, was crack shot. and
an excellent horseback rider. He was
an athlete as well. and was fond of all
manly sports. When about is years
old he lost his father, an Episcopal
clergyman. Very soon after this his
mother also died. Then his fiancee.
Thrown upon his own resources, he
worked his way through college by
teaching. He had more than physical
ability. and was a student as well as an

While giving Mr.. Thompson and those
associated with him credit for honesty OF
purpose in their party affiliations, We must
beg leave to remind them that they are not,
as they assume, the only ones who vote
for principle rather than policy" This
assumption is made in Mr.. Thompson
card of Monday evening. Whereas the
facts in the case are that by far the larg-
est number of our most conscientious citi-
zens, those who are most loyal to
principle, whose convictions upon
the temperance question are just as clear
and wei grounded as those of any third
party man, and who are in the fore
front of every good work, are found
outside the limits of that party. Still
more, by far the largest number of those
who are loyal to the principle of prohibit
ton of the liquor traffic are confident
that it can be more effectively promoted
by other means than a separate party
organization.
In view of these facts the claim which
is made by the political prohibitionists
that they have monopoly Of moral and
temperance principle, and that they alone
vote from principle rather than policy"
should pass for what it is, false and
groundless assumption.

DR.. John Cass, of Hamilton, Ohio, who
has relatives in this city, made some sensi-
BILE and practical remarks at the last ses-
sion of the health board. He sad that a
visitation of the cholera was anticipated
this summer, but it was not known whether
it would strike US or not. People at the sea
board and in many inland towns were getting
ready for its coming. Illinois was stirred
up and a number of other interior States.
Ii therefore behooved the board to adopt
active measures for Hamilton. A good
plan would be to appoint a committee to
visit each house and inspect the cellars,
drains and everything connected with the
premises. That committee should also
recommend the best disinfectant Now
was the time to put the city in good san
itary condition. If the disease comes to
Ohio there is no telling where it will strike
first. Bad vaults and filthy cellars did not
spontaneously give rise to cholera, but they
largely favored it A great many houses
of course did not need investigation, but
the committee should be clad with author
ity to visit any and all places and disinfect
or adopt such remedy as they might deem
proper. What the Doctor said is just as
true of Springfield as OF Hamilton.

LincOIn's Tenderness.

The late Isaac N. Arnold, in the BIZ
ography of Abraham Lincoln. which he
lived to complete, though not to see in
print, gives these little touching proofs
of the great mans tenderness of heart:
While Lincoln was serving as cap
tain in the Blackhawk war an old and
half-starving Indian strayed into the
camp of his company, all of whose
members were eXasperated by the bar
barities lately perpetrated on the set
tiers, and some of whom-like Lincoln
himself-had lost near relatives at the
hands of the savages. In frenzy of
blind rage the soldiers efused to recog-
nize the Indians ..safe conduct" and
to dispatch him, when Lincoln rushed
forward, knocking up the pieces, and
declared the man should not be killed.
But the mob's passions were aflame and
for some moments il seemed likely that
Lincoln and his protege would both be
shot down. After a pause the militia
lowered their weapons and sullenly
turned away. Il never" said an eye
witness, ''in all my life saw Lincoln so
reused before.
In the early days of his practice at
the Springfield bar. Lincoln was COM
ing home from neighboring county
seat with party of lawyers, riding
two by two along a countrylane. Lin
coin and eomrade brought up the
rear. and when the rest stopped to
water their horses his companion came
up alone. ..Where is Lincoln?" was
the inquiry. .'Oh," replied the COM
rade, ..when l saw him last he had
caught two young birds, which the
wind had blown out of their nest, and
he was hunting up the nest to put them
back into il" In short time Lincoln
rode up. having found the nest and re-
placed its inmates.-Pftsburg Chron-
icIe.

Everything on the earth and in the
air above is permeated with the earth's
magnetic force-it goes through your
clothes. it penetrates your bodies, it
saturates your brain-it is part of life
iNelf. Gaus. the illu trious German
astronomer, has computed (taking as
unit of his measure magnet, four
teen inches long, one inch wide, one
fourth inch thick, weighing one pound,
made of the hardest steel and of the
strongest magnetic force possible) the
earth's magnetic force as equal to
8,464, 900, ,O00, 000. 90, 600, 600 such mag
nets. The attracting or lifting power
of such magnet is about ten pounds,
which would make the attractive
power of the earth 42,31O, 900. 0OO, ,OOO,-
10000 tons. If this magnetism were
equally distributed throughout the
mass of the earth, the magnetic inten-
sity of each cubic yard would be equal
to six of these magnets, or about sixty
pounds attractive force. Prof. Mayer
has shown that this magnetic influence.
this invisible force, is a power filling
space to an unknown distance and
radiating in the lines of magnetic force
very much as the rays of the sunlight,
the lines of the earth's magnetic force
being from south to north, as indicated
by the compass needle.

AGEMENT OF,BUSINESS ENTER
PRIsES

The business management of the Cham
Pion Reaper and Mower interests Of this
city is as extraordinary in its character as
are the wonderful factories, themselves
supplying as they do, very large portion
Of the machines that cut the grain and
grass of this little planet of ours. The
managers Of the Champion interest are,
indisputably, at the head of the Reaper
and Mower business, IN the country AMI in
the world-in the extent of their operations,
and also, in. the excellence and effective,
ness of their methods Of doing business,
and now we have the assertion from the
New York Daily Times, that Messrs. War
der, Bushnell & Glessner, of this city and
Chicago, Illinois, furnish "the first in
stance" of the application of the principles
of Civil Service Reform to the manage
ment of business enterprises, known in
this country. In the issue of the paper
alluded to, for March 18th, is an editorial
on this matter, which opens as follows:
1t was natural to expect that the conveu-
lent and effective methods of civil service re-
form, 20 successful in the public service tor
testing character and capacity, would before
loug attract the attention OF sagscious men
in private business. For time that atten-
On was diverted by the detraction coming
from The disappointed politicians and Office
seekers. But public opinion has rapidly
changed, and the truth cannot be concealed

The Defenses of Holland.

A considerable sum is to be spent
this year in completing the defenses of
Holland. The system which has been
adopted is peculiar. but is apparently
well adapted to the characteristics of
the country in which it is being carried
out. While other nations, when in
vasion threatens, mobilize their armies,
in Holland the order will be given for
the mobilization of the waters"
When this operation is effected, water
line from five to ten miles wide and
some sixty miles long will be created,
directly barring the advance of the in
vader coming from the east Above
the surface of this inundation nothing
will be visible but a few narrow roads
raised ON embankments, enfiladed by
Notifications bristling with cannon.
The water for the most part will be
only a few inches deep. so that it will
not be navigable by hostile gun-vessels
of tlotilfas; while deep trenches cut in
the ground willsfrustrate any attempt
to wade through the inundation. The
contingency of an invasion taking
place in the winter. when the waters
might be frozen over. ingeniously pro-
yided for. The depth of the inunda-
ton will then be increased, and the
waters allowed to freeze on the sur
face. The water below will afterward
be drained off, leaving the crust of ice
ready to break in under the weight of
the first troops who attempt to cross it.
