Talma@e's Church.

From Maine to the four new states,
from Oregon to Florida. sympathy and
regret will stir the breasts Of men and
particularly Of women at tidings Of the
burning Of Parson Talmage's church,
the Brooklyn Tabernacle. However the
masses of people disagree on politics or
theology, they all read Talmage's SER
mons. He has reached the popular heart
as no other preacher Of his time. except
Beecher, has done In this country. For
years, regularly every Monday, good
grandmothers all over the land have
seated themselves, newspaper In hand,
spectacles on nose. and read Talmage's
sermon, every line and letter.
But the fire that consumed Talmage's
church could not put out the fire in the
dauntless parsons soul. His trustees
announce that the church will be rebuilt
Immediately. not indeed on the same
site, but farther away from the business
center. 1t is rather remarkable that
this is the second fire that has consumed
Talmages church in Brooklyn on this
same site. The first one occurred In
December, 1879. The present organiza-
ton is not so rich rs supposed. Hardly
anybody is. The congregation were
still burdened with debt for the building
just destroyed.
Meantime the indomitable parson who
has brought consolation to SO many
hearts, now asks consolation for himself
and lis people. Since he and his church
have included the world in their Chris
tian ministrations, they now appeal to
the world to help them rebuild their
Tabernacle. The parson will himself &C
knowledge with his own hands all sub
scriptions sent to him, 7. De Witt Tai
mage, Brooklyn. And newspaper read
ers will still have the Monday sermons.

by whom she was greatly beloved. The
remains were inferred in Highland Gem

In from Barker District,

Mining Expert Holbrook returned yes
terday from the Barker mining district,
where he has been engaged in examining
properties for and in behalf of an English
syndicate, with view to purchasing.
Mr.. Holbrook states that he found
matters in camp in an improving condi-
ton. He says that the construction and
near approach of the Neihart railroad
has given fresh life to all mining inter
ests. At Clendenin new addition has
sprung up on the eastward and it bids
fair to be lively camp In the near fu-
ture. The sale of the Silver Bell mine
and smelter, which have been standing
idle for more than six years to take place
on the 9th of November at White Sui
phur springs-is looked upon as an event
that will work out great good for the
camp and district at large. The mine
and smelter, it is expected, will be pur-
chased by parties who have both the
means and the disposition TO put them
actively at work and to open up the inn
mense mineral wealth of that remarka-
BILE mining region.
New and valuable mining properties
are being discovered in all directions
Old prospects are being opened and op-
Grated. A great deal of prospecting is
going on and large numbers of miners
are coming in from the older mining
districts of the adjoining territories
eager to take hand in bringing to the
surface the hidden wealth of the Belt
Mountain districts.
The country has never been prospect
ed; but so far as it has been examined
has been found rich in mineral wealth.
1t has promising future.

A "Reminiscences.

Lucy Stone recalls in The Boston
Globe some history which will cause
part Of the world to smile, and another,
small part, to sigh. She writes of the
Bloomer dress excitement forty years
ago. Gerritt Smith urged his daug liter,
Elizabeth Smith Miller, to design and
wear the dress. The skirt reached to the
knee. Below appeared full Turkish
trousers, extending to the ankle. Many
women hailed it as the attire which was
to emancipate them from dress bondage
and give them health, freedom and
strength. Numbers adopted it In various
parts Of the country. They found 1t was

Stone wore it among others. But wher-

freedom they gained for their feet bore
no comparison to the bondage that beset
their spirits" says Mrs. Stone. She
writes:
