Chicago Turner's Denounce the Blair Bill
and the Bible
A mass meeting was held in Aurora
Turner Hall, Chicago, on the I'd, to pro-
test against the Blair Sunday bill. +. A.
Stevens, the first speaker, discussed the
bill at length, attempting IL show that
it was unconstitutional AMI dangerously
ambiguous. Congress, he said, should
confine its attention to affairs of this
world and let alone the world to come.
The speaker then gave historical
sketch of the Sabbath, declaring thai
Their was no excuse for its existence.
Editor Christensen then took the
floor and entered upon a vigorous de-
nunc1atlon OF religious observances. He
said That the Blair bill, which required
the teaching of Christianity in the pub
Ii schools, Was oppressive and unjust;
that 1t would compel Hebrews, 1or in
stance, to allow their children to be
taught Christianity. The bible, the
speaker said, was unfit to be taught to
children; its effects upon their minds
was very bad. He called attention to q
number of passages which he declared
were SO Immoral that no child should
near or read them He ridiculed
the Christian religion and character
lied Christ as lazy loaier. Mr.. Chris
Jensen said the effects of teaching the
people Christianity were to make them
contented with their poor condition and
TO weaken their intellects. This, he
said, was the aim O. the capitalists who
advocated the passage OF the bill. Only
revolutionary army Socialists could
remedy this condition of affairs. The
meeting unanimously adopted resolu-
tlons protesting against the passage of

der from Schwartz, turned yer to
Col w. z. Bowman, Of Philade lphil,
Schwartz's lawyer. An interview with
Detective W. A. Pinkerton is print
ed, relating to conversations in
prison with Schwartz and the
latter's comrade, Newton Watt,
which, if true, would corroborate
in a measure the charge a Aust La~ye
Bowman. Pinkerton is also quoted as
having accused Bowman O. 1eceivis The

denied the charge. Mrs. Schwartz was
some time ago repudiated by her hus-

In Mem0riam.
MARY ELEANOR sELPH.

That Affections come not single.handed
has been fully demonstrated in the
family of Mr.. E. B. selph, OF Samantha.
Scarcely year has past since he laid to
rest his estimable wife. In few short
months he was called to mourn the loss
of his only grandchild, the lovely babe
OF Mr.. and Mrs. o. w. McLaren. The
angel OF death not being satisfied with
this called again and on last Wednesday
summoned his eldest daughter, Mary
Eleanor selph, aged 80 years, 10 months
and 26 days.
To those who have known Mary it is
Unnecessary for the writer to eulogize
any on her life, for they know that her
walk in life showed that she had perfect
confidence in her Savior. She united
with the M. E. Church during the win
ter OF 1876, and ever since her chief
desire has been to live Christian life.
When interrogated by her minister in
regard to death she replied, 81 have no
fear OF death; l only desire to live for
fathers sake he will be oh 80 lonely"
Indeed he will be lonely. No wife, no
daughter, but cheering is the thought
that he can meet them in the future
The funeral services were held at the NJ. !.
L. Church Tuesday at 10 o'clock conduct
ed by Revs. Trout and link, after which
her remains were laid beside those of
her mothers in the Samantha cemetery.
Although the grief OF the afflicted father
and heart-broken sister, Eta, may seem
unbearable, you must realize as the
poet did when he said:
Oh, Christ, thou srt the way,
All ways ere thOrny mazes without thee,
When hearts are pierced and thoughts all aim
: less stray,
In thee the heart stands firm, the life moves
Thou art the way.
Thou art the sight. b
Earth beyond earth no faintest ray can give,
Heavens shsdeless moontide blinds our mortal
sight.
In thee we look on God, and love and live,
Thou art our sight. W. r.

Great Slices of Oak.

A short time ago New York firm sent
an agent to Scottsburg, Ind, to purchase a
large white oak tree, which measured 81
feet in circumference. They bought the
tree for S75, and set to work to get out as
large board as possible. The tree was
felled and ripped up by means of a crosscut
saw. They got out one board that was 1C
inches thick, 5 feet p inches wide at the
butt and feet 81 inches wide at the top,
and 80 feet long. The board was loaded
upon broad-tread wagon, to which two
yoke of oxen and eight horses were hitched
and it took one whole day to remove ii
one and a half miles. This was probably
the largest white oak tree in the United
States.-Chicdgo Tribune.

THREE MILLION SLIPS
Handled in Making Complete

Handled in Making a Complete
Set of Ramsey County Abstracts.
For the last ten or twelve months the
Ramsey County Abstract company,
which has recently completed its Or
ganization, has been busily engaged in
making up complete set of abstracts
of Ramsey county. The new system
used by this company accounts for the
rapid and accurate work which was
done in such short time; and the COM
pany will probably be ready for buSI-
ness next Monday at 942 Cedar street,
the old probate court. Under the new
system every instrument in the office of
the register of deeds is represented by
a slip which is in itself complete alb
stract, with all necessary references.
The control is such that each slip is re-
viewed or manipulated on an
average of ten times; and there
being 100000 instruments in the
register of deeds Office. it follows
that the abStractOrs have manipulated
100000 of slips. One of the great adj
vantageS of the slip system is that it
permits to class the instruments on the
abstract in their natural order, without
regard to the date of filing. This is
great improvement, which will at once
be recognized by attorneys, as it en-
ables them to follow the chain of title
from its source to the present owner;
and missing link will be discovered at
a glance. The officers are j. A.
Soucheray. president; John B. Olivier,
vice president and manager; and Jules
Lambert. secretary and treasurer. The
name of Mr.. Olivier sounds very
familiar to every real estate man of ST.
Paul. He was one of the first settlers
of this city; having held the offices of
register of deeds and abstract clerk in
this county, lie is thoroughly acquainted
