Gladstone's Affection for Old Clothes.

MIR: Gladstone is said to be so partial
to old clothes that his valet has the
greatest difficulty in persuading him to
don new suit when 1t is ready for him.
Although the servant carefully lays the
clothes out in the morning, the ''grand
old man" persists in DOMINIC the old
ones. 1t is only by removing these at
night and leaving nothing but the new
ones in his room that Mr. Gladstone can
be persuaded to discard clothing that
has become positively shabby.-San

Il have been surprised TO fud such
a unanimity of sentiment among all
classes and conditions of men on the
point Of the general efficacy aud per.
maDency of the law. Even those who
grumble at prohibition and those who
openly denounce it are free to admit
that it has come TO stay. l have met
scores of persons, merchants, bankers
and solid business men, who have told
me that they we're not in favor Of pro.
Lib tion when the question was first
submitted; they fought aud voted
against it, but now, they say, they
would not be willing to admit the
saloons back on any terms. They
have become so thoroughly convinced
of The good results Of the law upon
the business interests of the state, as
we'll as upon other Interests, that they
stand openly and firmly in favor Of its
continuance. Some who have said

Republican County Committee
Meeting.

The Republican County Committee
of Forest County met, pursuant to
call, last evening at the office of
Chairman Sawyer, who called the
meeting to order at 8 o'clock and
stated the main object to be the setting
of time for holding the Primary
Election. All the townships we're
represented, either by the regular
committeeman or by substitutes from
those townships whose members could
not he present.
In order to test the sense Of the
committee on the subject, a motion
was made to hold the primaries on the
last Saturday in June, and after some
discussion, which seemed 10 indicate
that the general sentiment was that that
date was too soon after the election on
the 18th, and that it would be a diff.
cult matter to get out a good vote at
that time. The motion was then
amended by fixing the time on the
last Saturday in July, being the 9th
day of the month, and this date was
agreed upon unanimously.
The matter of arranging for new
election districts for the convenience
of voters was also discussed to. some
extent, and motion prevailed to the
effect that where such new places are
found to be necessary they shall be
designated by the Chairman at the
suggestion of the committee, and due
notice given of such new place. The
Committee having thus finished its
work, a motion to adjourn prevailed.~ :

Of the New York Observer, has been
making trip through Kansas to as.
certain whether the claims of the Pro.

are justified. He has written glowing
letters describing the great things that
prohibition has done for Kansas. Here
is an extract from one of his letters:

Of the "many towns" that the Phila.

On the contrary, have found an
amazing amount of life and vigor in
