from invasion by this monster evil.
Even the little wren spread her wings
to protect her nest when danger APP
peared. The lecturer spoke OF the pow
erful influence that had been and was
being increasingly conveyed in the world
by Payne's song, " Home, sweet home"
and characterized the temperance move
ment as one inaugurated and prosecuted
peculiarly for the salvation of the home.
Someone had reminded her that thus
far she had said little or nothing OF that
important branch of the work devoted to
Juvenile instruction in temperance. She
would advise all to have their chill
dren join the children's temperance
societies, but instead OF merely send
ing them they should lead them
there. In this connection she told
about the little boy who was refer
red to the chickens going to sleep as an
example Tor him to follow by going to
bed, and the youngsters reply that "the
old hen has gone to roost too.' She re-
ferred in closing to her qualification at
the organizing during her visit of the
Young Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union of Honolulu that already
had a roll of siXty-seven members.
In all the long journey laid out for her,
Miss Alderman said she was sure her
thoughts would often revert with pleas
ure TO the reception and the support ac-
corded her at this, the first foreign port
she had reached since leaving her own
beloved country. The lady lecturer
spoke in a clear. and musical voice
throughout, glow OF animation in her
manner aiding not little in securing
unanimous and unwayering attention to
her every sentence.
Miss Alderman having called for col
lection, the President said it was only
the second time one had been asked
since the w. G. T. U. had been formed
here about four years ago. Miss Dressler
sang impressively, by request, the hymn,
e. God be with you till we meet again."
and then the meeting was dismissed.

Uncle Sans Arctic Territory Described
by Miss Alderman.
The above lecture drew very fair
audience to the hall OF the Y. NJ. c. A,
especially considering the unpromising
state OF the weather and the counter
attraction at the Opera House. The
lecturer, who had the advantage of
comparatively unhacknied subject, spoke
for considerable over an hour, entirely
without notes, and with an unfailing
supply OF well chosen language. The
audience showed their appreciation by
paving the closest attention throughout,
and were rewarded by large and varied
fund OF information, conveyed in an ex-
Ceedingly pleasing manner upon matters
which were doubtless in great measure
new to most OF them. The lecture
described in turn the unequalled
magnifcence OF the scenery, the strange.
ness OF the manners and social condi-
tons, the unfailing courtesy and consid-
Grafton received from the inhabitants,
even the rudest and most unpromising,
the curious impressions produced by
the continuous daylight within the
Arctic circle. with interesting details
concerning the particular work in the
prosecution OF which the speaker had
visited the territory. She opened her
lecture by lively description of her
feelings at first seeing the flag OF her
native land floating in this distant re-
gion, and closed with a brief but COM
prehensive account of the natural re-
sources of the country, its seal fisheries,
its tannenes, mines, fish canneries, and
establishments for curing Goldfish and
manufacturing codliver oil. The des-
cription of the natives was particularly
especially the account of the |
supremacy OF the female sex which
there prevails, and the custom OF having
a plurality OF husbands.

that the Rosamond had oftentimes dis

 The outlook for crops hcreabouts is indeed lattering corn, especially, promises a heavy crop, with a very little more rain.
 We have plenty of fruit and yege- tables now; apples, peaches, plums, blackberries, whortleberries, roasting ears and all kinds of vegetables in profusion, and in q few days melons will be ready to pull and eat. The fact is q famine in the near future isn't troubling us. There is no req son why we all shouldn't get fat.
 Prof. Halbcrt opened the public school here the l1th inst. with rather d small attendance. Owing to the fact, the late wet weather setting farmers behind with their work, parents are necessitated to have the assistance of their children q little longer.
