Neau York Herald.

The Jersey City Tabernacle was filled
to its full capacity last evening by those
who came to hear the third lecture in the
course delivered by the pastor, Rev. John
L.. Scudder, on "Amusements ard the
Church." The previous discourses we're
on card playing and that of last evening
was devoted to the subject of dancing.
DR.. Scudder took for his text that part
of the parable of the prodigal son where
the elder brother approaches: "And as
he came and drew nigh unto the house
he heard music and dancing.h He said
"To-night we are to consider the second
of the called questionable amusements.
Our subject is dancing, a subject that has
interested the human race in all genera.

though men engage in this diversion
together with the women, they are not so
infatuated with it as the gentler sex. II
We may classify amusements according to
sex we should be inclined to say that
dancing partakes of the feminine gender.

The Wheat Outlook.

The latest reports from what appear
to be reliable sources place the short
age in the European wheat crop at not
less than 80,000,000 bushels. In other
words, the European countries which
raise less wheat than they consume,
will have to buy 370O00,0O0 bushels,
while those which have a surplus can
only furnish about 900 1000, 900 bushels
Fortunately, while the wheat crop
of this country is not full one, it is
sufficiently large to enable US to supply
the entire European deficit, if neces-
sary That we be called upon to do
so is not very probable, however, as
England will try to utilize as much of
the surplus wheat of India as possible.
This surplus is estimated variOusly at
from 25,000,O00 to 35,000,000 bushels.
| Assuming that the higher estimate is
the correct one and that it is all absorb
ed for British consumption, there will
be a deficit of 100000 to $4,000, 900
bushels which must be purchased in
the American market, for the very
good reason that it can be procured
nowhere else.
The situation in this country is
therefore exceedingly good so far as
the supply of bread-stuffs is concerned.
While the surplus of American wheat
is not as large as in some former years
it is large enough to meet all probable
demands and not so great as to cause
low prices. The American farmer not
only has wheat to sell this year but he
is sure of a market at remunerative
prices. Philadelphia Times.

second annual national encampment of

largest encampment ever held. The

with the Grand Army men, 5000
strong. Probably nearly 100000 men
will encamp in tents provided by the
State of Ohio. Some idea of the i'm
mense thrOng expected can be formed
when it is known that the caterer for
the camp has invested $4,000 in spoons

The encampment will last a week.
The grand parade and review will take
place on September II, and the remain

EvapOrating Does not Pay.

that, Notwithstanding the fact that
great deal of fruit was being evapO-

and unless there should be rise in the
present prices of evaporated peaches.
Many drying establishments would

there is not a material change in the

And thus it stands. Many evaporatOrs
have bought orchards at 30 and 81
cents per basket, thinking that the
price of the evaporated product will
rule high, and no doubt they will come
out behind at the end of the season
They say the only hope they have il
that the market may rule higher at th'

vestibuled Trains on the B. &O.R. R

The first of the Baltimore and Ohio
Company's new vestibuled trains has
been turned out of Mt. Clare Shops
and an experimental trip was made
with it August 10th. The train was
run from Baltimore to Keyser, 215
miles, in five hours. On the line be-
tween Baltimore and Keyser are some
of the sharpest curves on the B. & O..
Road, but notwithstanding the high
rate of speed maintained the swaying
of the train was scarcely perceptible,
the oscillation at the top of the car not
exceeding six inches.
This test fully demonstrates what has
heretofore been claimed for the vesti-
bule device, and that is, that it effec-
tually obviates the swaying motion
impaired to a train in rounding curves
at high speed. The new train will be
Immediately placed in regular service
between Philadelphia and Chicago.
All other trains on the B. & o. viii

as rapidly as possible, and within th'

Luther James, bachelor millionaire

on condition that the latter marries

uncle had been known as a woman
hater all his life, having once broken
nm match to which the aforesaid
nephew was party, the question arises
Is as to whether the bequest with the
matrimonial condition attached is to be
considered as an indication of a change
of heart or of grudge toward the
nephew to whom the fortune is left

Building Activity Among MethOdists.

The Methodists of the three lower
districts of Cecil county have consider
able on their hands at this time. In
Cecilton, in the First district, where
the Rev. E. G. Atkins is pastor, they
have decided to build new church to
replace the one badly damaged by the
cyclone. This will take between
81, 900 and $1,000, and subscriptions are
being solicited. The Rev. E. H. Mel
son, of Chesapeake City, is endeavOr-
ing to have a new NJ. E. church built
at that place. The present building is
unsuitable in many ways for the con-
gregation; $1,000 is wanted for the
purpose, and 81, 400 has been sub
scribed.

ing a new parsonage, the ground and
