THE DINNER no MIR. PHELPS.
The Comments Called Forth From
London PAYERS.

london Papers.
LONDON, Jan. %. The Daily Chronicle
referring to the banquet given last night
by the lord mayor in honor OF Mr.. Phelps
says: ''Ii Lord Salisbury found it innom-
patible TO parade The virtue of turning
his check TO the smiter he sen, Sir
James Ferguson, under secretary Of state
for foreign affairs, to do duty for him.
Nothing therefore, was wanting to COM
plete the succeHs OF the demonstration Of
England's generous good fesling. We
trust that the Americans will not take our
Godspeed to Mr.. Phelps as an act Of
yicarious penitence, Let us further hope
that the farce Of prolonging the tiff with
Washington will be withdrawn from the
bill Of the diplomatic play house."
The Pail Mall Gds.tt9 deprecates the
feting of Mr.. Phelps. It says; ''He is a
common place diplomat, who has done
average work, and wa will hid him good
by without emotion or regret" Diplo.

Laneburg eafets.

A few days of nice weather last week.
 The cotton crop here is about all gathered.
 Laneburg's enterprising merchants have bought over 200 bales of cotton to date, paying cash for a large per cent. of it.
 The eldest son of NIT. E. r. Loe, and the youngest child of MT. J. w. Gam are both seriously y sick-little hope of their recovery is entertained. Mr. B. Phillips, Jr, has sold his farm to MT. F.. NJ. Tompkins, and will move soon to NIT. J. II. Beauchamp's farm, near Harmony. Madam rumor says that perhaps John Lowery is better posted than other people about a prospective wedding near Harmony. which Is likely to take place soon.
 MT. Littrell and MT. D. l.. Fore, two of our aged and respected citizens, are both dangerously ill, their recovery to health being highly improbable.
 Mir. F.. W. East. of the firm of East & Evans here. has sold his in- terest to his partner, MT. J. T.. Evans. who assumes all debts, etc. He will move his business to MT. A. ]. Weaver's. soon.

The Modern Gladiator.

From the days of Homer down to the present. feats of physical prowess and personal contests between men of mighty strength and skill have commanded the unbounded interests of mankind. These themes, recount ed in lofty measure, have won for poet. historian and novelist undYlng fame. It k a fact that JOHN L. SULLIVAN. as he travels ever the country. excites more interest and draws greater crowds than the Presi- dent of the United States. This he does in spite of unworthy traits of character, and simply because he stands the embodiment of strength, courage and endurance; the victor over all antagonists, unconquered and uuconquerable.
 The Athletic Publishing Company, of ll2O Pine Street, St. Louis, Mo-, have just published for the subscrip- tion trade profusely illustrated life of Sullivan. entitled the MODERN GLADIATOR. This book tells the truth about Sullivan, without seeking to excuse or cover his faults; 1t gives full history of his remarkable ca reer, his parentage, birth and boy hood. education in the Boston schools. his first fight at the age of lifteen-a complete and detailed de- scription by an eyewitness of his long list of contests and trumphs, including his battles with Joe GoSs and John Donaldson, with Fay Tor, Flood, Crossley, Mccarthy, Dono- van, Dalton and Byrnes. His great battle with Paddy Ryan, his battles with .Jlm Elliott, Tug Wilson, Lain, Robinson. with Greenfield Burke. McCaffrey, Herald and Cardiff. His triumphant trip abroad, battle with Mitchell in France, his noted meet ing with the Prince of Wales.
 Before the recent fight with kilrain it is we'll known that Sullivan was a physical wreck when MuldoOn took hold of him-unsteady of nerve, nabby of muscle, short of wind, re- duced by eXcesses, and poisoned with typhoid. A more formidable, single, unarmed fighting machine never appeared in the world before than was this same Sullivan when he stripped at Richburg; and it was WILLIAM MULDOON who pro duced that phenomenal figure. How
 
 was it done: The answer to this will be found in the book.
 As whole. the book will prove mighty interesting reading to wide class of readers. Not only admirers of the manly art, but every man whose health or physical condition is below par is interested in it.

The Standard School Books.

We have examined with some care the series of readers issued hy the Standard Publishing Co.,, of St. Louis, and we are very much pleased with them. In material, binding and letter-press they are excellent, com pairing favorably with any readers we have seen. The work is well ar ranged, and the lessons are well se- lected and carefully graded, to keep pace with the growing apprehension of the child.
 We have seen an anonymous at tack upon these books, which. among other things. as~ailS the author for his numerous reading le7Son' on the dog. The object in books such as these is to choose matter that vii! in- terest the children; and there is nothing that will so certainly interest child as astory about dog. Hence we think the writer displayed good judgment in this particular style Of selections. Another matter that IS worthy of commendation i'll these books is the absence of long and ah- struse dissertations on elocntion. which is so prominent in many school readers.
 We have also examined the arith- metics of the Standard Company. and find them excellent books of their kind The work is well ar ranged. and the exercises carefully selected. -[ stone, Popular Ed ucator.
 The Standard Publishing Company deserve the thanks of every parent. for. as we understand it, until they come into the field q combination had for many years overcharged them for school books, and to-day this same combination is spending thousands of dollars trying to crush this. their new competitor The Standard Co. is endorsed by our State Superinten- dent of Education, and hundreds of noted educators everywhere.

Wherever the Australian system of voting has been tried it has pro- duced good results. Quite q num- Der of States have already adopted it, and the prospect is favorable for its universal adoption in short time. Something must be done to protect the purity of the ballot box, and this is the best remedy that has yet been suggested.
