A SPLENDID LevrUKE.
Rev. DIR. WiIlets Delights a Large Audi
ence at the y. M q. -.


Every seat in Y. NJ. C. A. hall was
taken last night, and the audience was
we'll repaid for attending in the pleas
IRE of listening 10 the admirable cd
dress OF Rev. DIR. A. A. Willets, OF Can
ton. upon the subject, PHILOSOPHY OF
a Happy Life" Toe Doctor IS pleas
iBc and entertaining talker, ana the
audience was 1T one moment In cOnVul-
sions of laughter over his droll stories
and happy flashes of wit, and the mex
moment moved TO tears by his recital
OF pathetic incidents. 1t was quarter
past eight o'clock when he was intro
duced to the audience by his friend Rev.
DR.. d. A. Cunningham.
The desire for happiness, the speaker
said, is implanted in every human soul.
Since all desire it, and all have sucn
good opportunities 10 secure II, now Is
it that so many are unhappy? III was
his purpose to point out briefly the
reasons for these failures, and give ali
the key TO happy life.
In the first place many persons lali 10
secure happiness because they start out
with erroneous theories. In this prac-
tical age we are prone TO do away Win
the old muSty theories, and desire prac-
tice. The theory that Is not practlcaole
dots not amount to much. Practice must
be founded upon a substantial theory.
One theory that multitudes are trying
30 reach is that happiness depends up
on external circumstances. The mere
possession Of wealth does not constitute
happiness. Trials and tribulations are
upon the Divine programme Tor this
world. True happiness depends upon
internal conditions, and not external
circumstances.
Next TO having right theory 1t is I'M
portant that we possess the right KIND
OF moral temper. Pride is one OF the
first points against happiness. Inc
grateful man is always happy, because
he counts his blessings. As long as you
can find one worse of than yourself
there is cause for gratitude. Besides
going into life with correct theories and
correct moral moral temper, 1t is
essential that we have our eyes
open. 1t is great thing to see The
blessings which God has bestowed upon
us. Many people are wide awake only TO
their miseries. Get IL into your heart,
and head, and creed, that it is right to
enjoy, and then enjoy. If you would be
happy, live to make others happy. God
has never written more simple, plain
er, or more infallible recipe for happi-
ness. Do all the good you can, in all
the ways you can, to all the people you
can, whenever you can. One blunder
we make is in overlooking the value OF
the little kindnesSeS and courtesies,
which repay US one thousand fold.
All that is needed to insure happiness
is to look carefully after one little spot
called the heart. Make the heart right,
and all the world is right.

An Innovation in Firm. Boilers.

Messrs. NJ. & ]. Pollock, OF the Pacific

bility of equipping the two horizontal
boilers in the mill with the Roney me-

inghouse, Church, Kerr & Co., Of Pitts
burg. The stokers feed the furnaces
automatically from coal placed in hop
per outside the door, and are guaran-
teed to burn bituminous coal without

MoKINLEY's MOONS IsrENCIEs.

In telling the difference between a
revenue tariff and a tariff of his kind
Major MCKINLEY at Ada said: "a rev.
enue tariff will raise revenue for the
government; u protective tariff will do
that" But the Major did not add that
for every dollar his tariff collects for
the government, two, or three, or may
be five or ten, are collected from the
pockets of the people for the protected
trusts and monopoles. While a reve-
nue. tariff would tax the people once
only, the Mckinley tariff taxes them,
not only on the foreign goods they use,
but on the goods CT the protected
American mOnopolists who are thus
enabled by the restriction or prohibit
tion of competition to put up their
prices. See the American-made goods
that are sold cheaper abroad than at
home. 1t is MCKNLEY's monopoly
fostering tariff policy and nothing else
that prevents the American consumer
from buying American goods as cheaply
as the foreigner does. That is the diff
ference between the Republican and
the Democratic tariff policies.
Major MCKINLEY can outvie any wo-
man in contradicting himself and in de-
claring that thing is so because it is,
in the face of reason and common sense.
He starts the tariff question by saying
he is going to discuss question of tax
alton, and in the next breath declares
that the tariff is not tax. He
gravely asserts that the tariff
does not raise prices and the next
moment he IS found Dragging about re-
ducing the price of sugar to the people
by putting it on the free list.
In speech last Monday at Xenia,
MCKINLEY said:
They talk about the tin-p]ate tax.

QUE STATE MILITIA.

The report Of Captain BARRETT, g.
s. A., Of his inspection of the West
Virginia National Guard to the Inspec-
tor General at Washington, which will
be found in another column, is COM
prehensive and interesting document
which the Governor, the members Of
the Legislature and :he officers in COM
mand Of the troops should make 1t a
special point to read and study care
fully. 1t is drawn up with sOldier-like
brevity and is direct and to the point.
While Captain BARRETT forcibly and
clearly points out the many things
lacking TO make our militia an etfec-
tive organization and the State En-
eampment what it should be, his report
is, nevertheless, highly complimentary
of the personnel OF the West Virginia
troops and very encouraging 20 both
officers and men.
As he points out, the chief obstacle to
be overcome, was the almost total lack
Of experience and knowledge Of the re-
ouirements and emergencies OF the en-
camument. This, Of course, was TO be
expected and will easily be overcome.
Another serious obstacle TO the success
Of the encampment was the lack o!
proper accoutrements, tents, clothing
bedding, camp implements ETC., largely
due to the lack Of sufficient approprIa'
ton by the Legislature. The grounds
selected were totally inadequate for
purooses Of drill, and last, but not least
the westher during the encampmen'
was such as to prohibit the proper
amount Of drill, even had the grounds
been sufficient, and to do away with
ANYTHING like comfort most Of the time
CAPTAIN BARRETT speaks most highl!
of the troops and officers, Of their so
briefly and willingness and quicknes
TO learn, and he predicts that with
little more experience the West Vir
Rlnla militia win become highly Ell

cient and creditable body OF troops.
Considering everything, the fact Of its
being the first eneampment, the lack
of experience of both officers and men
the miserable weather which still
further shortened the already too snort
time, it is wonder the encanpment
was as successful as it was.
The faults Of the first encampment
can easily be remedied in the second.
Ia the first place, it should be for Two
weeks instead OF one, as Captain BAR
RErT recommends, and the appropria-
ton should be adequate TO the
needs of the soldiers. The
growth of the State and the
Increase Of its wealth warrant larger
appropriation. And, Furthermore, the
appropriation should be made per-
manent one. The State is full of the
finest sites to be had for State encamp-
ment and proper grounds should be
selected for the next one.
Our citizen soldiery is seldom needed
for service, but when it is needed it is
needed badly. That it should be efficient
goes without saying, and that it will
take very little trouble and money to
make it so is equally obvious.
