MAS Ixs1oS, Dec. 2s.-Mr. Huston
has consented 10 retain the possession
Of taited Ststes Treasurer, sad has
family viii soon be re-established here.
with the purpose of remaining until
the end of Mr.. Harrison's term. Mr.
Huslon's resignation, last Jnif, Was the
result Of dissatisfaction at the in4nner
IN which Mr.. Huston has been treated
by the Presidents family.
Al indianapolis the Illusions and the
lIarrisons were the closest of friends,
Mr.. Huston bas strong pull on poll
ties, and the intimacy between the two
families MAS OF advantage 10 Mr. Har-
rison in aiding him 10 control his own
State. During the campaign and after
Nh. Harnson's elecron--as long a. both
families remained st lndial polls
Mrs. Huston Was on a social eQuSity
with Mrs. Harrison. When they came
10 Washington Ihe Illusions expected
the same thing 10 continue.
Probably the chief Inducement for
them 10 come Was the temptation 10
take part IN the social life al the White
House. After accepting the treasurer
ship, Mr.. Huston leased "A handsome
residence Il little above Justice Hsrian's.
near Mt. Pleasant. IL was large and
snowy, suitable for extensive entertain
ing, and surrounded by very extensive
and handsome grounds. Ii Was ex-
pected that there would be a constant
exchange of calls between there and
the White House.
But the transfer from Indianapolis
entirely changed the social relations Of
the two families. The Harrisons were
raised out OF Mrs. Huston's sphere. and
during the time she Was here she was
gwen no social recognition at the White
House. Neither Mr.. nor Mrs. Huston
made the least attempt TO conceal the
fact of the snub nor their feeling on
the subject. Mr.. Huston was very
much lncensed and sent IN his reslgna-
ton, To take effect upon the appoint
ment of his successor.
About that time Mr.. Michner resigned
the chalrmanshlp of the Indiana Re-
publican State Central Committee, and
If Mr.. Huston could have got free from
ms position he would have gone home
at once and attempted 10 organize the
committee on an anti-HarrisoE basis,
but this was prevented by Mr.. Hsrri-
sons failure TO appoint his successor,
and by Mr.. Michner's postponement OF
his retirement from the committee, at
the suggestion of Mr.. Harrison.
The matter has given Mr.. Harrison
no little uneasiness, and IT Is great re
lief 10 him that, after many unsuc-
cessful attempts be has succeeded IN
pacifying Mr.. Huston. II is probable
that during this winter Mrs. Huston
will be called in 10 assist Mrs. Harrison
at some OF the White House receptions,
and will probably be invited 10 tea.
The Indiana State Central Committee
Is expected 10 be reorganized with a
Harrison man at It's head.

PHILOSOPHICAL SERMON
Delivered by Rev Geo. Henry Dole, at the
New Charch Last Evening.

New tharch Last Evening.
A philosophical sermon was that de-
Evered by Rev. George Henry Dole,
last evening, at the New Church, corner
of North Division and Lyon-sts. Rev.
Dole took his text from the Psalm xci,
verses IL. IL: "For He shall give His
angels charge over thee, To keep thee
in all thy ways" "They shall bear thee
up IN their hands, lest thou dash thy
foot against q stone"
The former passage is referred to by
81. Matthew, IN cnap. w, 9th verse, and
the latter is referred 10 by st. Luke,
chap. Nv, 10th verse.
Man on earth is governed and con-
trolied by the workings of the spiritual
world. presided over by the angels.
This government has three divisions
Heaven. He'll and the World OF Spirits.
BY means OF spirits Tor angeisl ne IS as
quently good spirits have a tendency to
bring man nearer happiness ard good
ness-or Heaven-whIle evil spirits
have an influence which leads man to
the directly opposite goal-Hell.
MI. bVit ulecOutst MAY De lliustrat-
ed IN the following manner: Man lives
within two parallel lsnes; on one side Is
the good and the other line marks the
evil; man IS tempted; he overcomes
the temptation, and, by the AID OF the
spiritual government, (the angels gets
beyond the line of goodness. and is
saved. Otherwise he Is tempted; falls;
gets beyond the evil line. and is, by the
AID of this same spiritual world, COM
pletely doomed. II 8 mans thoughts
are forever upon heavenly things, that
haven shall he reach. IL his thoughts
and loIgings are for things evil. MS har-
vest shall be the same.

Three Men Deceived Into baying q

There has been brought to light, SAYS
the New York TribuSe, an exceedingly
clever and audaeious swindse, by which
three men were induced 10 pay sl0.oet
for an alleged silver mine IL Colorado.
DR.. Henry Robinson, OF No. 4o2 Fifty
eighth-st., \. y. is well-known Eng.
lish physician, who has been in tina,
city for about two years and half. He
has been in the habit OF taking his
meals in the Grenoble Flats, No. 20O
Vest Fifty y-seventh-St., where he made
the acquaintance OF Vim. Noble, the
owner Of the fats. Last May, DIR. Rob
ineon met man IN the restaurant who
introduced himself as John Shay, and
said he would like to have the doctor
call on a friend OF his who was sick.
DR.. Robinson called with Mr.. Shay al
the Continental hotel, and was intro
duced 10 man who went by the name
OF belmont.
The doctor diagnosed his case as a
peculiar and rare disease called lucocy-
thema, or enlargement OF the spleen.
The SICK man was told he had only Ioul
months TO live, as there was no cure
for him. This was the last seen of Del
mont for three months, and then DIR.
Robinson was called to attend him al
the Lincoln Hotel, where, after visiting
him and prescribing for him for week
or more, he was told by belmont, as a
secret, that he owned mine in Granite,
Chatfee county, Col, and that while
digging in il he had found lode of sill
yer estimated 10 be worth 5000, 900
| lie said, however, that il was III tho
clam of a man named Weston, whom
he was trying to find to buy his claim
from him.
belmont died with the story on his
lips, and the doctor paid for his funer-
al. Shortly afterward Mr.. Shay turned
up and told the secret of the mine to
DR.. Robinson, and together they went
TO Mr.. Noble and his brother, who went
with Shay to Washington, and there
paid Weston $4,000 in cash, with A
mortgage of $4,000, for the clam
The party then went TO inspect the
mine and found it TO be myth. Del
mont was an Old "bunco steerer," and
died III harness.

THE END OF THE WORLD.
DIR. Jackson Believes That Its Approach
is Yet Far Distant.

The subject of Rev. DIR. Jackson's,
sermon ut the Fountaln-Street
Baptist Church last evening,
was, ais the World Nearing Its
End 20 Dr. Jackscn's opinion
was quite decided that it was not, diff
ferent thereby from the oft-expressed
belief that the end is not far off. He
supported his position by references,
among other things, TO the translations
from the Greek, tending to show that
the end of the world, as spoken OF IN
the scriptures, refers more specifically
Ia the end of the age.
At the conclusion of the sermon he
alluded TO the fact that there
might be Christ ans present
who might deem 1t impohtic
to thus destroy the fear of immediate
destruction IN the minds of bearers.
To such he would reply, that those
who become Christians on account of
that fear, did so from a base and un-
worthy motive. He held that the
world would continue 10 grow stronger
III all things. and especially in moTsllty
and faith IN the Christian religion, and
invited repentance. with the higher OBJ
lect of having personal part IN the
spiritual progress of the race toward q
reward beyond.
After the service n large meeting was
held, at which slS Young men, selected
from the congregation, spoke OF the ad-
vantpges OF Christianity 10 young men.

Delighted PeopIe,

During the past few weeks, the music
warerooms of Mellor & Hoene, " Fifth ave-.
have been crowded all day long with yisi,
tors to see the wonderful aolian. Unbounded
admiration and praise is freely expressed
all round, many well-known Pittsburrers
securing aolians for their homes. This in
strument has already been introduced in
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and other
principal cities. and will, beyond all doubt.
soon become popular here.
Few people have any idea what this in
strument is, many resting under erroneous
impressions and Imaginary suppositions.
The aolian is an instrument which every
musIcally cultivated family should have as
any member of the household can produce
upon it, with little practice, the highest
class of music accurately, and at the same
time with the most beautiful changes of
tempo and tone coloring.
Endorsements of this musical wonder have
been received from the best musical experts
including Mr.. Anton Seidl, of the MetropoI.
itan Opera House, New York, vino is very
enthusiastic in its praise.
Visitors to see this instrument on exhibi-
tion at Mellor & Hoene's are politely re-
ceived.
