RESULT OF DISCIPLINE.
1t Enabled an Army officer, Unaided, to Capture
Two DeSerters and March Them Into Camp.

Major William Penn Gould is modest
gentleman. who has seen a great deal of
life and rarely talks about it. When he
does it is well worth while to listen, for he
is very interesting talker. He was pay
master in the United States army, and has
recently been placed upon the retired list.
discipline is great thing" said he, the
other day. in a conversation at the New
DenisOn House. Il was at Fort Prescott,
in Arizona, paying off the troops, when a
man came up to my table for his pay. he
was one of the toughest men in the army,
noted as a deperado. There was something
wrong in his payroll, and could not pay
him. He had no pleasant expression of
cOuntenance as he turned away, but
thought little of that at the time.
Next day was to 60 from Fort Prescott to
Fort Mcdowell to pay the troops there.
The officer in command had promised an
escort of fifteen to eighteen men, but next
morning, when ready to start, he said that
owing to a wholesale desertion of men dur
ing the night, he would have to limit my
escort to nine men. We started. passing on
the road lieutenant and number of SOL
diers looking for the deserters. We went
on until we came to a camping place.
"One man and myself went on some dis
lance alone when, suddenly, two men came
before us. They said they had come from
the Salt river region, and asked the direc-
ton to some place. l answered them and
they passed on. My companion wanted
to know if / did not recognize them.
did not. and he then told me that they
were two of the deserters. Leaving this
soldier in charge of our things / started
back after the deserters, and coming up
with them rode between the two and told
them they were under arrest as deserters.
Just then heard the click of trigger. and
turning about found the muzzle of rifle
within an inch of my head. At that instant
/ recognized the fellow holding the gun as
the desperate. l. did not say word
didn't know what to say-but merely
looked at him. He hesitated a moment
and the mnzzle of the gun turned to the
ground. There was just one thing saved
my life, the discipline that fellow had re-
ceived in the regular army, the
respect to a superior office that had been
his daily education year after year. / told
them to about face, marched them back to
camp and delivered them to the command

County Auditor Taggart, his chief deputy.

The Eigh1-Hour Movement.


The eight-hOur movement will be one of
the leading subjects that will be discussed
at the Labor-day celebration. There is a
general sentiment growing. among local
workingmen that the plan of shorter hours
is one that is compatible not only with per-
sonal comfort and health, but also with
higher ideal of citizenship Organization
of the trades-unions toward this end is be-
coming very strongly marked. as the
tailors. timers and saw~makers are the
only ones that have not yet fallen into line,
and it will be only q short time, it is
claimed, until they too unite with the rest.

FROM THE FIELD OF LABOR
Unions and Assemblies Evincing Great
Interest iii the Coming Demonstration.
The Eight-Hour Movement to De Agitated with
All Argument at Commando Sugges-
ton to Make Labor Day Holiday.

The Labor-day demonstration on Sept. 2
will be n grand affair, if any dependence is
to be put upon the extensive preparations
that are being made to insure its success.
The executive committee having in charge
tho programme for the day will meet this
morning at 10 o'clock. ut which time the
speakers will be decided upon. A few def
mite arrangements, however. have already
been made. The celebration will be held
at Hammonds grove, five miles north OF
the city, in triangular strip of timber
land, lying between the Lake Erie ~ West
ern railroad and Fall creek. Mr.. Ham
mond will sink an extra driven we'll, put in
large number of additional benches In
the woods. and make every effort to ac-
cOmmOdate what promises to be one OF the
largest crowds ever on its grounds. Spe-
cial railroad facilities will be. furnished,
the experience at the labor picnic
at the same grove on July 4 going
to show the inconveniece of poor accom-
modations in that line. The day will
be spent in general holiday for the
laboring classes. In the morning parade
will be given, in which all of the trades
unions of the city, thirty-twO in number.
will participate. AS yet there can be no
definite estimate fixed upon the probable
number of men that will be in line, bat it
is thought that it will be unusually large.
In one sense the celebration will be purely
a local affair. Fort Wayne. Evansville.
Terre Haute and other cities will hold their
own demonstrations. and in smaller towns
arrangements may be made to the same
end, in which case excursions will not he
run to this city. The enthusiasm among
local workingmen in making the day sue
cess seems to be universal. No politics
whatever will be tolerated In the manage
ment the aim being simply tn arouse inter
est among and afford a days amusement
and profit to wage-workers In general

LECTURE ON ALASKA.

Miss Jessie A. Alderman will de-
liver lecture on Alaska Thursday
evening in the Y. NJ. G. A. hall, at
1880 O'Clock. Admission, fifty cents.
Miss Ackermann travelled very ex-
tensively through this country, that
is just opening up to the people and
was the first and only that lady ever
spoke in public in the territory. She
has been lecturing to crowded
houses in the great eastern cities of
the United States on the country,
and her description of the icebergs,
glaciers and the never setting sun
are vivid and clear, and she takes
her audience through the entire
country. Her talk on the natives
aud the customs that prevail among
them and account of the large num-
ber of husbands each wife has is of
particular interest. Let no one miss
this opportunity of learning of this
interesting country. Thursday
evening 1880, Y. M. c. A. Hall.
Below is notice of the lecture
from California paper:
There was large and apprecla-
tive audience assembled at the Arm
ory Opera Hall, to hear the lecture
on "Alaska," by Miss Jessie Acker-
man, around-the-world missionary,
under the auspices Of the w. c. L.
U. The lady is a pleasing talker,
and gave straightforward account
of the habits and customs of the
people of that territory, together
with a description of the local laws
and usages under which they live.
The lecture was full of interest to
all the auditors and highly appreci-
ated, as the lady gave much inform
alton which was new to all the audi
ence. Miss Ackerman spoke for
over an hour, and all Of the time
held her audience with rapt atten-
ton. The lecture was a success and
the members of the w. G. Il. q.
made happy stroke in having this
talented lady come in our midst and
address us.

sity like food, if it was Vineyard of
New Jersey, Lompokc of California,
Lamont of Iowa, and other colonies
would have perished, and Iowa,
Maine and other States must have
decreased rapidly in population for
want of rum, and total abstainers
would all die out.
To say saloons can't he abolished
nor rum drinking prohibited, is not
only to deny mans progression but
to doubt the power of the Great l
Am, to overcome sin by righteous
ness, and to deny the testimony of
history that they have been already
abolished in many places.
There is no advancement in vir-
tue under the saloon regime that
has ever shown itself. One district
of New York is said to contain AZ,
600 inhabitants, school, II
churches, and 213 saloons. In COM
menting upon this we ask what op.
portunity have the rising generation
of this community to improve in any
quality worth preserving, while
ignorance, poverty, vice and crime
is perpetuated by 213 gin mills ant
sin mills.
Again, it looks as though it woulC
be impossible for so many licensed
rum holes of sin and crime to exis
in that community were it not fo,
the influence and patronage given tC
them by church members and mod
crate drinkers. Would it be harsl
to say to such, "ye hypocrites, hov
can we escape the damnation o,
hell" j. NJ. HoRNER.

II IL Il
HORNER'S ANSWER TO C.
CONTINUED.

EDITOR BULLETIN: AS to "teach-
ing people the danger of indulging
too much or to drink only just
enough and have them do it, is
about as hopeless a task as walking
TO the moon, as what one thinks Just
enough will make another drunk.
What G thinks just enough for him
self, wife and daughter, Horner
thinks entirely too much and dan
gerous. So we deem it impossible
to set up and enforce q standard Of
''just enough" as the strength of
liquors differ as well as the endur-
ance of human stomachs. So to set
tie the matter easily and righteously
the prohibition standard should gov
ern, then all damage and danger
from the rum fiend would vanish.
Then hree-fourths of all crimes
known among the rum nations will
also cease.
Just think what a revolution for
the better that would be, leaving
only one-fourth of the murders, one
fourth of the robbing and stealing,
one-fourth of the quarreling and
misery, no drunkenness, and but
little moderate drinking, with its
"decoy duck" example, ETC., etc.
These reduction of crimes would
indicate like reduction in police
force, and that the courts would be
relieved of three-fourths of all its
criminal business.
Think again: This great reduc-
tion of crime is not for one week,
one month, or one year, but for all
the coming years.
No wonder that devoted women
and good men are enthusiastically
engaged in this reformatory work,
thus helping on, as they believe, the
cause of humanity-the gospel of
civilization-yea the latter day work
of the Great Master, TO bring about
''peace on earth good will to man.
when "swords shall be beaten into
pillow shares" and "nations learn
war no MORE" "when every man in
every place shall meet q brother
and friend" To hasten this state
of things the saloon must be abo-
lished, not regulated, as where the
saloon prevails there poverty, mis-
cry, crime, and drunken bummers
abound, the very opposite of heaven
ly things, and the saloons are now
maintain among the people by the
patronage and influence of moder-
ate drinkers and drunkards, and the
licensing OF them in many cases is
done by the vote and influence of
temperance :men and Christians
they, not realizing that to license a
saloon is to perpetuate all the evils
of which rum selling and rum drink
ing is the father. Moderate drink
ing, if it must be done, makes sa-
looms necessity, and saloons make
drunkards, and drunkards make
crime and misery. So Judge ye G
whether moderate drinking is more
harmful than temperance.
When 1 say that drunkards are
made out of moderate drinkers
don't wish to be understood as say
-. ing that all moderate drinkers make
drunkards, as all know that some
good men and good women drink
moderately, but l do say the exam
pie TO the young and weak minded
is bad, and the more intelligent
and noted the drinker the more per-
nicioGs the example, And for tenn
perance men and church members
to vote for license is equally bad.

THE PHON0GRApH.

Within the last two or three days
experiments have been made with
the phonograph for the purpose of
reporting public speeches. The
most notable experiment, although
conducted under very unfavorable
conditions, gave remarkable results.
1t was at public meeting in one of
the upper towns in New Jersey that
the test in question was made.
Owing to the arrangements in the
hall it was not possible to place the
funnel for the reception of the sound
near enough to the speakers stand
it was six feet below it; while the
phonograph itself was 10 feet dis
tant from the speaker. The only
break made in the reporting was in
the eight seconds required for the
changing Of the wax cylinders which
are used to record the speeches.
These cylinders, as a rule, will take
about eight minutes of an ordinary
address. Mr.. Edison says this delay
in changing the cylinders can be
obviated entirely by using two ma
chimes. Two separate speakers were
reported upon this particular occa-
sion, covering period of two hours
Of talking, with the exception of
the small breaks already mentioned.
The orators were fully and accur-
ately reported, even to the deep,
longs breaths and coughs of one of
them, who was suffering from a
cold. The applause of the audience
was also. distinctly and sharply re-
peated. A joking remark of the
chairman, made behind a speaker S
back and at his expense, was also
faithfully caught and recorded by
the remorseless phonograph, while
the cheers of the audience at the
close of the meeting, the shufiling
of feet, and the confused uproar of
the departing crowd was also most
faithfully noted. So far as ordinary
human speech is concerned the
photograph is now perfection; the
lowest whisper is sharply and dis
tinctly recorded IN. Y. paper.
