vote Of the Peoples party in Highland

The DOWN
THAT DOWNS THEM ALL.

There's down on the peach on the orchard wall,
And down on the young mans lip;
There's "down in the mouth" of the men who fall
Because they are too flip.
There's down in the waves when they down the ship
And there's down in the pull of the vest,
There's 'down at the heel' Of the men who slip
In their strife to dosun tile rest
There's down in the Swanee-river song
And there's down at the bottom of the sea
There's down on your luck when your tips go wrong,
And there's down in the rye whiskee.
There's down in the diving bell, and down
On the prickly thistle too;
There's down on the train Of adys gown,
And the lady is down on you.
There's down on the Yankee eagles breast,
And down with the foreign flag;
If it's hoisted over the eagles nest
There's down with the red, red rag.
McGlnty went down. and we're down on him,
But the down that downs them all
Is the dosum IN prices when we skim
The profits from them ALL

Yesterday was banner one in the Jackson

largely attended than usual. Superintendent

Mr. Powell used huge magnet to illustrate

At the IL o'clock service Rev. W. F. Oldhams
Of Pittsburg. Pa, preached. Or, Oldhams has
been missionary worker in Bengal, India, and
is attending the ccumenical council.
His subject was the hindrances to mission
work in India. These were, lie said, MANY
First, the carnality of the human heart: second,
the lives Of nominal Christians in India, there
everybody of Caucasian birth being con-
sidered u Christian: third. the position OF the
English government toward missionary work,
no officer of the East Indian government being
allowed to preach Christianity and the laws
being made to harmonic with East Indian
faith and customs.
The Hindoo marriage law and results of its
support by the English government were de-
scribed. The growing sense and desire for
nationality by the East Indians was also
| touched upon, with the probable ultimate out
come of separation from England.
Educated East Indians, the speaker said, will
accept the teachings of western ply steal science
but not western philosophy. He described the
system of caste and the serious obstacle it was
to the progress Of Christianity.
The evening service was by DR.. NJ. s. Torrey
of the Evanston, ILL.,. Theological Institute
His subject was the Liberty OF the Gospel"
Mr.. Torrey is remarkably good exposition of
scriptural doctrine and preached most
interesting sermon. evincing ripe scholarship
and perfect acquaintance with the theme.

The Engineer Commis.ioner's Salary.

10 the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In your issue of the 10th / observe The state
ment that The organic act fixes the paw of the
Engineer Commissioner at a figure which, to-
gether with bis regular army pay, shall equal
S5O0O'
This is sr error, for section Of the act OF
1878. which first provided for an Engineer Com
missioner, says: Nor shall he receive any other
compensation than his regular pay and allow
ances as an officer of the army"
In the District bill approved July !, 1852.
for the fret time, there was appropriated
II, l6O.il TO make his salary IS. 000." and the
same thing has been done each year since, the
amount varying according to the pay that the
Engineer Commissioner received army

pose annually has ranged from Si24 in the bill

happened TO be present in the Senate COM
Tlttee room when this matter discussed in
1882, having been called by the committee to
give information in regard TO the needs of the
schools. 1t was urged by Senator Dawes on the
ground that the Engineer Commissioner. like
the civil Commissioners, was expected TO
give dinners. &c, and in other respects had
to live IN the same style and be at the same ex-
pense, and it was therefore only fair that his
salary should be the same. There was consider
able opposition by other members of the COM
mlttee, and the question was raised as to
whether such provision would not be a
change in existing law and therefore not per-
missible in an appropriation bill, under the
rules; but ii was finally adopted and has now
become regular practice. The total amount
thus appropriated from 1881 to date is "a 213 81.
