Travel over both the transcontinental
lines is very light at present. Great num-
bers are still travelling on the G. A. X. tick
cts and the "scalper' business is being
worked for all it is worth. The sale of
tickets is, therefore, of course lighter than
ever. The roads are doing all in their power
to'shut out passengers travelling on scalpers'
tickets, but there seems to be little hope of
n remedy until the time allowed on the |
Grand Army tickets has expired.
An old man about 60 years of age who is
somewhat demented, wandered away from

brown suit of clothes, has patent-leather
slippers, generally wears red handkerchief |

feet, five inches; has full heard, stoops a
little, and has sore eyes. The Sisters have |
always kept watch over him to guard |
against his leaving, but he slipped out soon
after the door was opened yesterday morn
ing without being seen. Any information
as to his whereabouts should be left at the
hospital. This is the second time he has
left the hospital; the first time he was found
down near the smelters.
Mr.. j. j. Reilly's picture, ''The Abduction

found. 1t represents Anymore, beautiful
maiden, standing upon the back of Il couple
of black monsters, half man and half fish,
and being carried by them across the sea.
The figure of the maiden is almost perfect,
with the exception of a little height of color
ing in one or two places. The outline, how
ever, is faultless, and shows the ability of
the artist. The hideous black figures are
well depicted, and with natural water, sky
ana general surroundings, go to make up a
finished and mastery painting

cation. At the evening sermon the Rev.
