The Piano Trade.

Messrs. Charles c. Harvey & Co. report
that the sales Of Chickering & Sons pianos
have surpassed their most hopeful expecta-
tons The demand for their new scale
grand has been so great that it has been
impossible to keep full line of these instru-
ments in stock. The new style upright
piano, with their new scales and new re-
peating action, has overcome the prejudice
which some have had toward this style of
pianos. Chickering & Sons factory is
running on full time, with all the men their
factory can accommodate, aud they are
still hundreds Of pianos behind their orders,
owing to the unprecedented demand for
their instruments in the west.-BoSton

ACTIVITY IN OUTSIDE LANDS.
Syndicates Buying Up Neighborine
Farms


Never in the history Of this city has there
been such a demand for farm pro perty. In
fact, whether it be in the shape of a farm
or not, as long as it is within ten miles of
the city, it is counted good purchase, and
some of the numerous land companies are
willing to buy. Nor is it necessary to hold
long to realize a profit, for values are
changing so rapidly, 80 great is the de-
mand, that before the ink is dry on the
first conveyance, some one is willing To
take the purchase at a profit to the first
buyer. The general public have no idea of
what is going on in our midst in real estate.
Much money is being made, but it is not
being talked Of, because operators desire.
naturally, to keep the circle of profit
reapers from widening. Large tracts of
land are getting very scarce, hence the
larger the tract the more desirable the pur-
chase. The profits are not only larger. but
small operators are ruled out, and comueti-
ton is not so sharp. Considerable interest
is being manifested in the sale of 600 acres
of very valable land, which will take place
at public cutlery next month. 1t is gener-
ally understood that much of this land is
nearer TO the city, and has a better road
frontage than that piece recently sold at 500
per lot. As this land has frontage on each
side of the public road of mile, thus Civ
ing two miles of frontage, operators look
upon it as an unusually desira ole piece to
invest in. 1t has often been stated in these
columns that outlying lands were cheaper
in this vicinity than in the neighborhood of
any other place of its Importance, and con-
sequently that no better Investment could
be made. 1t is pleasant to see these views
accepted by our people before others reap

Strachan & Co. say that M S. Cosulich
owed Green's Sons & Co. money on q pre-

in an endeavor to secure the indebtedness
of Mr.. Cosulich. The owners answer to

ment Of the court.

Coming Back.

cit is reformation or revolution for
our country. Things cannot 90 on
as they are. Our republic cannot ex-
ist without righteousness. The wave
of infdelity which swept over the
country five years ago is receding.
| do not find as much infdelity now
in month in the questions which
are asked by the young men, after
meeting, as | used to find five years
ago in one day. Then the young
men were full of Ingersollism, and
thought Christianity was worn out.
But they have found that there is
nothing to infdelity. 1t tears down,
but does not build up. 1t does not
give them anything. This is part
of the same movement which we see
in France. The men there are go
ing back to the churches. Gambet-
ia and those about him had such an
influence that they swept the men
away from the churches. You might
have gone there, and seen the church
es attended by women and children,
but no men. Now, however, the
men are coming back. 1t is a part
Of the reaction against atheism.
Now our cities are filling up with
people who are thinking over new
ideas, and they must be met. Just
now there is great movement
toward Socialism, especially in such
places as Chicago. When l was
there, the people brought their Social
list books to read and [ told them
that, if / was half as earnest to have
them Christians as they were to have
me a Socialist, they would soon be
converted. "-MoOdy.

Notes on Prohibition.

The powers of Europe seem to
think that the prohibition of the liq-
uor traffic is a good thing for the
Turks, if not for their own people.
1t is stated that the Sultan has Or
dered the discontinuance of the sale
of Intoxicating liquors in CONSTANT
nople, and the six powers contiguous
to the North Sea-Great Britain,
France, Belgium, Holland, Germany
and Denmark-have entered into an
agreement whereby the sale of such
liquors to Turkish fishermen is pro-
hibited.
Cardinal Gibbons declares himself
against prohibition because it does
not prohibit, yet favors a severe po-
lice law prohibiting the sale of liquor
on Sunday. A correspondent of the
Chicago NeaCS comments as follows ::
"Will the cardinal please tell us what
virtue prohibitory statute possesses
to suppress drunkenness on Sunday
that does not attach to it on Monday?
Are mems appetites governed by the
day of the week? If it is desirable
to preserve the sanctity of the Sab
bath, is it not much more desirable
to preserve the sanctity of the man
for whom the Sabbath was made !?
And if prohibition is the only meth
cd of accomplishing the former, would
it not be wise policy to continue it
on through all the days of the week ?"
Mrs. DR.. Rust, who is making a
tour in the interests of the Woman's
Home Missionary Society of the
Methodist church, recently spent the
Sabbath in Guthrie, Indian Territory,
and writes thus: owe cannot close
this article without citing the exam
pie of Guthrie as the best argument
for prohibition we have heard. Ac-
customed to the spectacle of cities
where theatre and saloon scatter their
deadly miasma on Sunday, the con-
trast of the quiet and order here is
marked, and this without law or civil
officer except the temporary govern
ment imprOvised for the hour, and
sustained by the approval of the peo-
pie. Confusion, discord and conflict
had been expected. The United
States marshal told us that he came
on the 22nd with handouts, chains,
etc., and had arranged for at least
two hundred prisoners to be trans
ported to Arkansas City for trial. In
stead, not a single arrest was made in
two weeks. A lieutenant of military
said: Not single drop of blood
has been shed during the month, but it
would have flowed freely in the
streets had not liquor been prohibit
ed in the Territory Said another
Gambling dens were established in
plenty here, but they are moving off,
they cannot make them pay without
liquor So prohibition in Guthrie

son, late surgeon general of the U.
