The increase in the Halfway
House springs at the last measure
ment is accounted for by the exca-
walton of the springs, causing a
large increase, but not sufficient to
offset the decrease from other
sources. About one-third of the
amount of water coming from the
Luakaha Stream at the last measure
ment was from newly-excavated
springs situate between Luakaha
and the Pail.

Postmaster MeCamley.

The Milwaukee Sentinel Of recent
date contained dispatch from Wash
ington stating that Mr.. McCamley
would be removed on account of irregu-
lar1ties found in his office bv post
office inspector. On the contrary Mr..
McCamley has given the best of salts
faction and retires leaving behind him
a good record. The following letter
will explain itself:
WASHINGTON, D. c. Dec. 16, 1889.
Editor REPORTER. justice to Mr..
Peter McCamley the present P. NJ. of
your city, I wish to say that the dispatch
in the Sentinel from this city to the
effect that Mr.. McCamley was to be
removed on the report Of a post-office
Inspector is wrong. There has been no
report adverse to Mr.. McCamley nor is
he to be removed. Mr.. Burt has been
recommended for P. NJ. and Will be
appointed to take effect on the 18th of
January next when Mr. McCamley's
time expires. There has not even
been complaint against Mr.. McCamley
and how Mr.. Dodge, the Sentinel cor
respondent, who is usually very correct
and perfectly reliable, could have
obtained such news, I do not know.

MoraVian Church Opened.

The new Moravian Church in our
sister city, Centralia, was opened to the
public on Sunday December 10Th with
appropriate services. Rev. E. Hoyler,
of Mamre, and Rev. A. Westphal, of
Milwaukee, were there to assist the
pastor, Rev G. Matsen, in the opening
exercises. In the morning the congre-
CATION was made up of members of
that church and persons who could
understand the German and Scandin-
avian languages. In the evening the
new edifice was crowded from the
pulpit to the door with an English
speaking audience. The Congregation
al Church Choir furnished the music.
Rev. Westphal, of Milwaukee, was the
first speaker. He is an able man and
agreeably surprised the audience His
delivery is excellent, his remarks were
very appropriate and he impressed
those who heard him favorably.
Rev. Loomis followed him in his
usual interesting style and spoke of his
favorable impression Of the Moravian
Church. Rev E. HoyIer thanked the
people Of Centralia and Grand Rapids
for the liberal way they had treated
their society and thought they would
never have reason to regret it, after
which a collection was taken and the
exercises closed.
The Morayian Church is a beautiful
Gothic structure which was erected on
lots purchased of Mrs. Bagley, at cost
of $500, which is all paid. They are
still indebted $3.50 on the lots which
they hope soon to Hquidate. At the
Sabbath morning and evening session
a collection of $65.71 was taken. This
society will prove no doubt, valuable
addition to the religious societies of the
twin cities

Minnesota and Dakota the prairies
stretching far and wide with now and
then a river, and hills pointing their
blue tops skyward. Far away to the

and crossing the state we first caught
sight of the mountains. The western
part of Montana and Idaho is rather
rugged. We were glad when the trip
was ended. This is the place for you
