rst. THE DAILY NEWS
Is a daily paper for busy people.

First. THE DAILY NEWS
Is a daily paper for busy people.
OF all mankind the people of Chicago and the busy north
west are the busiest. And yet perhaps no equal number of poo
pie are to be found who appreciate SO keenly the necessity OF all
intelligent knowledge of the worlds daily d0lnss. They recog-
nize that they, more than anyone else, are the worlds providers
in many of the most important necessaries of life. How I'M.
portant, then, that they should have their daily intelligence of
every event, the world over, which by any possibility can affect
their diversified commercial holdings. And in all the higher
interests of life where can be found a like number of people
more keenly appreciative of all that contributes to progress in
art, literature, science, religion, politics, and the thousand and
one things which make up modern civilization.
And yet, strange to say, right here in this great, busy north
west, in its busy metropolis Chicago, there has taken place the
creation and development of that most ~cumbrous, unserviceable,
Understanding thing, the "blanketsheet" newspaper. With the
blindness of very faulty this monstrosty of journalism, this breeder
of mental dyspepsia, has steadfashy imposed its mountain of un-
threshed straw to the demand of the people for the winnowed grain
of fact. 1t was out of the very incongruousness of such a condition
of things that THE DAILY News had its birth. People wanted the
News,-al the news-but they demanded it apart from the over
powerng mass Of the trivial and inconsequential. 1t is because
THE DAILY News satisfactorily meets that demand that its cIcula-
ton is over " ambition aweek."
r. M. LAWRENCE, Williamsvle, Ill, says: "The big daily is
too much for me. Not that a person is obliged to read every
thing printed in the sblanketsheets,' but one having anything
else to do doesn't have time to hunt through the ~long-drawn
twaddle for a few grains of ~digestible food"

THE TIE TH.\T BINDS
Brothers and Sisters. Good Templars,
in an Apron Party.

Each brother and brother friend of Per-
severance Lodge purchased at the inner
door of Elks' Hall, last Saturday evening,
sealed envelope containing q ribbon tie,
which bound him for the evening as
chaperone to some sister wearing beau
corresponding in color, and which gave
him the privilege of ordering cream and
cake for two ut the conclusion of u most
excellent literary and musical entertain
ment.
The committee on entertainment, under
the leadership of the Sisters Brookfeld, had
been successful in marked degree, and
appetite for dclicacles and love for the
excellent in music and recitati0ns were
well pleased.
The meeting was called to order and pre-
sided over by Chief Templar A. II. Frear,
who announced the programme, opened
with a skillful piano lo-"Entrainanti'' "
by Lulu McCrecry. Miss Iottic Began
gave most convincing reason why the music
of heaven would be all incomplete unless
there was boy whistling. The Misses
Molly and Anna Bond sang most sweetly

the legend says, pines and dies, being sud

was called out to relate an cpl

Germany. Prof. Jno. o. Russell picked
up several pieces Of charming music on the
guitar, over which he is acknowledged mas
ter, and Messrs. Milligan and }. T. lIemlock
rendered Brutus and Cassius with great
acceptance The programme proper was
very fltly rounded off with spirited duet 10y

A JUVENILE GAMBLER.
The "Polioy" Reporter Tells a Tale of
Youthful Dcpravity.

Lewis, alias Mute Nelson, Is q colored boy
about 16 years Of age and was employed
up to Friday last as a servant by Mr.. Cor
nellus Oliver at his residence, No 3i37 VI
street northwest. Lewis was considered
good servant, but he had one very bad
habit, that of playing policy. For one of
his age he was very proficient in all the
hidden mysteries and superstitions con
rected with that variety Of gambling, and
could talk iuently as to the probability of

known as scat row. and many dime has
he spent ON II. But unfortunately for
Lewis, luck turned against him and his
signs failed. His salary was meager, and
many times he was debarred from playing a
"sure thing" because he had not the
"boodle," but every cent that he could
earn, borrow, or pick up went In his favor

{ Yesterday was the fifteenth anniversary of
the organization of Anchor Lodge No. o,
Independent Order of Mechanics, and ar
rangemcnts vera made to ilttingly observe
It. At o'clock last evening the members
of that lodge assembled in their hall and,
accompanied by delegation from Columbia
Lodge No. II, of the same order, proceeded
In body to st. Paul's English Lutheran
church, corner of Eleventh and II streets
northwest, and listened to sermon by
Rev. DR.. Domer.
The church was well filled with people,
and the members were escorted to reserved
seats in front. DIR. Domer took as his text
the special objects on which that order was
founded-viZ, 'Jacob's vision at Bethel
and the ''love Of Joseph for his brethren
The reverend gentleman took up each of
the principles Of the order in turn, and de-
fined and explained the meaning at length.
He paid most iattering compliment to the
order ON having such worthy objects in
view, and stated that to live faithfully up to
their obligations they must all be good citi-
zcns, and, in fact, Christians. lie also took
occasion to eulogize all such fraternal and
beneficial organizations, and related several
incidents that had come under his own OBJ
servation wherein much good was accom-
plished. His discourse was very interesting,
and was greatly enjoyed by all.
