THE CAMPMEETING.

Yesterday was observed by tae people at
the camp ground as the Sabbath
Meetings We're held nearly the whole day
after sabbath school at o'clock. 1t was
considered the last day of the encampment.
Special effort was made for the conversion
of all upon the ground.
Although they have confined Themselves
principally to doctrinal subjects, yet they
believe and preach on real conversion The
subject last night was conversion, the sermon
being delivered by Elder Rogers from Act.
3:19, Repent therefore and be converted
that your sins may be blotted out
The audiences during the week have been
large, and the interest apparently wei sus-
tanned.
Today is the last Of the campnleeting; and
larger congregation is expected this even
ing than any previous meeting.
Although the camp meeting closes there
will be other meetings held in the city, cf
which notice will be given

ted in the probate court of the charge of in
sanity preferred against him by Mr.. N. Cal
houn Some days ago he imbibed too freely
and found snakes in his boots. He threat
ened to dispose of Calhoun, which led to his

the absence Of some material witnesses. The
case will be called probably tomorrow.
The invincible George NJ. Smith attracted
his honOr's attention for time yesterday.
An officer had been anxious to read q couple

entertainment, SO he kept himself at dis
tance He was charged with selling the ar
dent and with running gambling hall. His
attorney succeeded III getting him out Of the
first charge, but the second called for 500
and trimmings. He paid the fine and prom
ised to be good boy as far US the liquor
question is concerned.

THE LONG FLIGHT.

The Homeing pigeons of which these col
unlns spoke, we're turned loose by Mr.. j. a.
Zorn yesterday morning from the top of the
Occidental hotel. They were a beautiful pair
of birds, solid steel blue in color, with bright
yelowish eyes with red cornea. When taken
| in hand they showed little if any fright.
They were let go at twenty minutes to nine
| by central time. The youngest bird few
around few times and setting once or twice
on adjoining buildings and showing desire
to return to the cage. The older and heavier
bird few about, charging the circumference
Of its fight each time until it disappeared
elst of the NJ. E. steeple. The young bird in
short time returned and Lit on the cage.
Whether either or both lit out for their home
cote among the hills of West Virginia, we
know not. The Wheeling Daily Intlligencer
which came to hand yesterday, contained
the following:
Mr. John A. Zorn of this city. who has
gone to Wichita. Kansas, took with him two.
pure bred homeing pigeons belonging to Mr..
Michael Freismuth. Mr.. Fresmuth has g
brother living in Wichita and he and Mr..
Zorn. after the birds have been well fed and
bly, be done next Saturday morning, al
though they may not be flown until Sunday
morning In case they are allowed to 60
Saturday they will be looked for Monday af-
ternoon, and if not flown till Sunday they
will be watched for Tuesday.
Mr.. Freismuth will be advised by Mr.. Zorn
by telegraph at just what time the birds are
released and he in turn will notify them in
Kansas of the time of arrival; their watches
were set alike before Mr.. Zorn left
Both the pigeons are female birds; one is
one and half years old and the mother of
the other, which is six months old TEey
have both been flown from various points
about here and have always made good time.
The distance from here to Wichita in a
straight line is between l. 100 and 200 miles.
but Mr.. Freismuth has no doubt but what
the birds will make it all right. He has
fine flock of these pigeons. and is thoroughly
posted as to the care to be taken of them,
their habits, etc. Their distance to travel is
the longest that carrier pigeons have ever
been known to fly. and the result is awaited
with interest by many.

THE HELAaoRxEEr1Na.

| The labor meeting at the G.. A r. hall last
evening was attended by a good sized aud
ience. Besides members of the labor organi-
cations there were present many business
men and quite number of ladies. j. D.
Caldwell was elected president of the meet
| ing and Chas Streeter secretary.
| Hon. Dr. Walling was introduced and af-
| ter few Introductory remarks took up the
leading economic questions of the day; first,
supply and demand; next, transportation Of
manufactured and agricultural products,
| the introduction of bills in the legis-
lasure and the opening up Of
the Oklahoma country. He stated that
upon these and other economic questions
it was the intention of the labor party to en-
ter the field and to apply to them strict rules
Of justice and Interpretation.
OF railroads he said, that if they were con-
trolled by the government Or state the
charges for carrige should be fixed upon the
basis of certain per cent. on the price that
article will bring in the market; and further
''we must aim to own these lines; if corpora
tion can make money out of them why then
cannot the government" He contrasted the
the cost of telephone service, a private con-
Germ, with that of mail service department
of the government.
He then called attention to the rent queS-
ton, and afterward to the cost of
running the government under the
system of reform" He next referred to the
contraction of the currency, severly de-
nounced a congressional committee who
asked advice from Wall street magnates, and
demanded dollar that was sent and did not
fuctuate.
Mr. Carlisle tariff speech he compliment
>ed, but inquired why was legislative act
in accordance with such view never given to
the country. The tariff bill he favored was
given in the memorable words OF the only
workingman's president, James A. Garfield.
He favored, too, the opening of the Oklaho-
ma country, the education of Indians to
farm work by farmers, and the ousting OF
the cattlemen
He was followed by Mr.. Sherwin, master
workman of the Knights of Labor lodge,
and afterwards by j. &. Mccoy, who as a
Democrat bitterly denounced the bossism
controlling that party as was manifested at
tho last $50 called Democratic convention
and predicted the downfall of the party if
such was not eradicated. Farmer Dolittle
who said he considered it the greatest calam-
ity that could befall a country to have all the
services under control of the government,
spoke next, and was followed by J. D. Cald-
well with few remarks upon Capitalization.
Wm, Ross addressed the meeting until the
committee on resolutions offered their report.
Mr. Barret read the report, which consid
cred labor of greater interest than inanimate
capital, that they were not waging war
against legitimate capital nor would they
receive overtures from any political parties
Afterwards, two other short addresses
were listened to and tho meeting adjourned.
