Salem is soon to have one of the
most complete write-ups the capital

say the West Shore is devoting its

it goes without saying that the il

Shore has happy faculty of never
undertaking any task that it can
not carry out to the letter. 1t has
been n long time since Salem had a
satisfactory illustrated article, but

1t is rumored, and we think on
sufficient ground, that Il. p. Boyd
and Miss Matte Russell, both old

New Year at Ashland. And thus
they go. Who will be the next ?

Youthful Sinners.

Saturday afternoon the peniten-
tiary received an addition of four to
its number They were mere boys
and came from the metropolis. They
were George Hanlon and Willie
Brown, the youthful highwaymen,
to serve two years and one year
respectively; Hugh Boyle, to serve
three years for stealing box of tea 4;
A. j. Ratschke, to serve one year
for attempting to pass fraudulent
check. The two first named are
mere children, aged about thirteen
and weighing less than one hundred
pounds each. What could speak
more forcibly for the establishment
of n reform school than this? 1t is
of almost weekly occurrence that
this receptacle for the criminals of
the state must receive one or more
boys. They are not yet lost to the
world. A few years in anindustrial
school or house of correction might
make good men Of them.

AS the congregations and interest
continue to increase in the services
conducted by Prof Rork in the hall
over the CAPITAL JOURNAL office,
thoughts turn and indications point
to the organization at no distant
day of a church. At present the
Unitarian society is the only organi-
zation, but it is thought church
will be built before many months,
as many persons of wealth and in
fluence are being attracted to the
halls of this society.
Beginning with next Sunday
evening the pastor, Prof. Rork, will
inaugurate the discussion of a series.
With succeeding Sundays he will
take for his subjects respectively,
Creation, Immortality, Adam in
