. BEFORE THE BATTLE.
Both Sides on the Alert and Hope.
- fuI of Victory.

The Sunday prior to the eyentful
Tuesday was quiet one in local polit-
ical circles. About the opposition
state central headquarters the scene
was foreible reminder of wake,
and the quartette who held down the
chairs in the rear room cast
political prognisticutions to the
winds for once, and put in the time
telling ghost stories. E. E. Mcdonald
wandered aimlessly about the Clifton,
while Henry Johns and his sombrero
were missed on all sides. Louis Memo,
however, was as active as usual, and,
seeing that there was dearth of p0-
litieaI news about headquarters, charged
buggy up to the congressional commit
tee, and drove out to the Eighth ward
in search of converts. Joel Heatwole,
who spent the day gravitating between
the Ryan and the Drake block. was in
as good humor as ever, and retained his
air Of childlike innocence.
The superficial indications were but
the calm which precedeS the battle, and
the Republican legions, despite their
air of seeming quiet,a are active and alert,
and will leave no stone unturned to
make charge for victory. The Demo
Gratis, however, have been equally vigi-
cant, and have guarded with jealous
care the interests of their standard
bearers. and with every hour their
chances are bettered.~

parlor floor, and the servant, thinking it
was useless, threw it into the flames.
When the news was brought to Carlyle,
he said nothing, but turning to his desk,
finished the book.
We may laud ourselves for the pro-
gress which Christianity has gained in
its conflicts, but how about what it has
not gained? 1t is stubborn fact that
two-thirds of the inhabitants of the,
earth are pagans and that majority OF
the last third are Jews, Mohammedans
or skeptics. 1t is also fact that
a large percentage of our university
land professional men are not
members of Christian churches, but in
different and flippant skeptics. Ma
teriallsts, pantheiStS and nihiliSts are
in existence and establishing their sys-
tens. These men must be met on their
own ground. aud Christianity is not
afraid of the conflict There is more to
fear from laundering workmen than
from any other cause. Men that would
remove these systems of error must be
Self-denying students and
NOT ECCLESIASTICAL TRAMPS.
Ministers to meet the requirements Of
the age need thorough training. AS
a rule the ministers are poor men; the
rich are in the pews. We must be
armed with faith. 1t has subdued en-
pires and conquered kingdoms. 1t OBJ
tains promises and stops tho mouths OF
lions. Many doubtful victory has
been won by man on his knees, and
prayer has been called a scaling ladder.
If it can mount to the throne of God,
scale the heights of opposition on earth.
adding truth to these the armor is
perfect. The search after it has Occu-
pied the greatest minds OH earth. The
astronomer seeks it in the stars. The
geOlogist finds it in dens and caves OF
earth. The Christian calls it ''the
sword of the spirit" In the early bat
ties of England and France the Black
Prince asked his father to assist him i'll
a battle. mo" replied the father,
t''gain the victory and the honor will be
all thine own" When the battle was
at its highest pitch, and the sword OF
the enemy was about to be plunged into
young Edwards heart, the farther
warded off the blow. So God stands by
your side to gain the victory.

Loungers about police headquarters

of young and pretty girl of eighteen
slipping into the chiefs room with
anxious face.

"Oh, no. He is going to fight duel

are usually made are Chinchilla Elysian Beaver.

RIGS The different styles of Overcoats now worn
are the single and double-breasted Sack the Sur
tout Cape Overcoat, Ulster, Refer Fur-Lined,
FurTrimmed and Fur Overcoat. The selling
price of an Overcoat is determined by the quality
Of the material, by the trimmings and by the way
it is put together. There is no garment that man
can be deceived on as much as Overcoat as
while the outside may be good the trimmings,
make and workmanship may be very poor. 1t is,
therefore, necessary to buy your Overcoat where
you can feel absolutely sure that you not being
imposed upon in any way, and where if for any
cause your Overcoat should not prove perfectly
satisfactory you may bring it back and feel abso-
lutely sure that nything wrong will be made
right The Boston has stood the test for the last
eighteen years. and the people have the fullest
confidence that an Overcoat bought here will be
well worth the price paid for it, DOLLAR FOR

WILLING TO WAGER.
A Chance for Republicans to Back
Harrison.

The confidence of the Democracy in
the chances of Cleveland and Thurman
Is increasing hourly, and Democrats of
sporting proelivities are wagering their
money on their favorite just as rapidly
as they find takers. A well-known bust
ness man called at the GLOBE
office last evening, and stated his
eagerness to wager real estate of
sworn valuation of So. 800 against S10,-
600 in cash that Cleveland would be the
next president. The abstract and war
ranty deed will be deposited upon the
acceptance of the bet. Any Harrison

was formerly called the Harrison,

a meeting last evening in the

Doodle Bill. The $50 members Of this
club state through their executive COM

of The head of the state roster, and their
public declaration of principles is buta

aspirant for gubernatOrial hOnors.

were united to a man. and will neither
vote for nor support Mr.. Merriam in his

of the situation clearly indicated that
the prevailing sentiment was strongly
against the VIGOROUSLY corrupt methods
which have been employed by Banker
Billy's agents throughout the campaign.
1t was incompatible with clean politics.
and after lengthy session the name of
the club was changed and allegiance to

FIGHTING CHRISTIANS.
An Entertaining Discourse. by q
Popular Preacher.

The hall on the West side devoted to
the uses of the Strangers church was
we'll filled yesterday morning, and sew
enty-fve persons expressed desire to
sign the constitution for fellowship in
the new society. The document. how
ever, was not ready for signatures,
hence the reception of members and
adult baptisns were postponed until
next Sabbath.
Pastor Roberts was as interesting as
usual, and chose as his topic ~'ChriSt-
tianity in Conflict" During his SER
mon he declared that the end of the
gospel was to establish peace, and the
means to he used were continued con-
fiict.
:.The want of the church," he said,
sis combative and aggressive courage.
Sin must be reprOved, butt needs cour-
age to do it. Heaven had the courage
to send its heir to stand in the presence
of Satan and to carry the martyrs
crown. The history of Christianity is
clear on this fact, that it was always
stronger and more lifelike in times OF
conflict than in days of peace, luxury
and prosperity. Christianity proved lis
right to live by its progress in its early
conflicts. There is hardly one OBJ
lection or form of unbelief to-
day that it had not VanGuiShed
before, the close of the fifth century A.
D. A careful student of early church
history finds nothing in modern unbe-
lief that he cannot trace back either to
CELSIUS, Porphyry or Julian the Apestate.
Modern unbelief is poor reproduction
of early skepticism. Christianity proved
its divine origin by its progress over
them all. Early conflicts with Juda-
ism, Gnosticism and Jewish interfer-
ference were the causes Of apologies,
| for the defense of truth, which have
never been surpassed. They called
forth literature for which humanity is
and
Will, BE ETERNAILY INDEBTED.
..On the other hand, peace has led to
anostacy and cold Indifference, which
nothing short of Il reformation could re-
| move. Conflict has been the material
element of Christian progress. Balanc-
| ing the temper is a hard and long con-
]. flict with many. and unless they are on
| their guard it will often gain a victory
| that will be regretted for lifetime. 1t
| has slain thousands, driven many TO all
untimely grave, and nerved the arm of
| the murderer to Stay his dearest friend.
| There is nothing on earth that is more
| needed than a man of impulse, and
nothing is less honorable when his
telnper governs him. Men of
| feeling are the men who reach
mems hearts. Robert AinSw0rth saw
| his wife burn voluminOus manuscript
| which had cost him years of toll, and
| turned to his desk and recommended
his labor. When Thomas Carlyle was
] finishing his great prose epic, French
