). ing Machine-J. B. Howe, agent, was ou
to-day, with a pair of snow-white horse
and paraded about town. 1t seems to
a simple and good machine. Quite
r number of farmers inspected it. .... M
. Ralph Loft, in noticing the procession c
the Salvation Army, remarked that tn
scene carried him back to his boyhOo
days in England. The same organize
tion existed there at that time, thoug
having somewhat different method o
conducting their meetings. There wa
perhaps great difference between tn
order of things then and now with thi
church, as with other churches. MI
Loft says they called the Salvationists il
those days the 'Ranters." They becam,
wonderfully excited in their meetings
and would literally hammer Satan out o.
the poor sinners who went to the altar
We have seen almost as much excitement
in the churches in this county, not many
years ago. Bro. Sam Wagner beat 6
"fantasie" on the tamborine tonight.
SUNDAY-There was a fierce storm
this morning, pouring rain and a start
ling amount of thunder and lightning.
IA large force of G. A. r. boys attend
ed the First Baptist Church this fore
noon, to hear the Memorial Sermon by
Elder w. d. Hendrickson. This Minis
ter is quite popular with the people, and
his effort to-day was the best we ever
heard him make. There was feeling
tribute to the men who wore the blue,
and an appropriate blending of the les
son of the victory in temporal warfare
with that of victory in spiritual ware
fare, the victory over sin, over the world,
the victory for eternity. Mr.. Hendrick-
son has every reason to feel proud of his
Memorial Sermon, and the "boys" were
ready with their praises of it. One pret-
ty feature of the service was the appro-
pirate singing of the choir-beginning
with sam soldier of the Cross" and
closing with "God be with you till we
meet again." -. There was a rousing
"class-meeting" at the Hall this after
noon, led by Lieut.. Georgia Hartinger.
A well-known church lady said to US on
the street: 81 believe Ministers should
take more decided and vigorous action
against the strongholds of Sin. l believe
we need a few Sons of Thunder That
good lady had the desire of her heart
filled this afternoon in listening to DIR.
Johnson's speech at the meeting. The
DIR. is always in earnest in good works,
but this afternoon was completely carried
away by the spirit of the meeting, and
gave forth no uncertain sound for the
Master.
MoNDAY.-Deputy Warden Cheering |
ton came to-day, to remain portion of |
the week. 49,. Mr. L. W. Kinnison is in |
town, and tells woeful tale of the raw
ages of the cut-worms and grasshoppers.
They have seriously injured his growing
and made it an improbable
season for him .... A large meeting of |
the G. A. R. tonight, and quite number
in Peter O'Malley is still
his Portsmouth Street proper
ty... Ripley Eubanks is in to attend
Post meeting tonight. -. 1t seems un-
accountable that young men on the
street should attempt to provoke mirth
1T the expense of prayer, as was the case
with some of our young men this even
ng. And they claim to be educated men,
90. 49,. Another fierce storm tonight.
There seems to have been hinge brok-
N loose in the eiements!. .Lieuten-
INT Hartinger has reinforcements to-
hight, and the Army on bold 'front.'
Che Lieutenant has proven quite popu-
ar here, by her vigorous manner of con-
lucting things, and has as free and easy
command of the immense meetings as an
'ld-fashioned camp-meeting manager.
friends from a distance write enthusias-
ically in praise of Miss Hartinger. -.
\ gentleman living out on Buffalo Skull,
Who is in town to-day informs US that
ONE of the sinners down the Chillicothe
Road affect to think lightly of the Saliva
ionists. Never mind, friends, we'll send
detachment down that way some of
hese days, and take you all in.
TUEsDAY.-Another cold spell this
norning, and citizens are hustling on
eavier clothing. -. No man enjoys a
oke better than Sheriff Lively, and he
ellis one on himself this morning that is
Torth repeating. A young man named
ack Knox was indicted for carrying con-
called weapons, and the Sheriff, learning
hat he was at his fathers home, down in
liberty, concluded to go out and bring
i'm in. In company with Mr.. Boyer,
he Sheriff staid in the neighborhood all
light. and towards daylight captured
ack, taking him into his fathers house
0 fix up arrangements for bringing him
4. The whole offense. was not of much
Importance, and the officer made arrange
lents with the elder Knox to bring the l
ounger one in this morning. Having
ompleted the arrangements, the officer
topped into the next room to tell Jack
was all right!! Jack was heeling it
Or the woods, in the liveliest possible
manner. The Sheriff laughed all the
ray to town, and we suspect that he was
eally as glad to run Jack away as to
ring him in -. Mr.. Isaac Winters, of
Iamden, called to-day.
