township, Highland county, O., August
11th, 1866. In that homo she lived all
her life and from it God called her TO

Her Christian life began in her 18th
year. Then she united with the Mar.

was clear. Hers was a full conservation
when life was young and bright and
free. Then came disease-sow. weary
lingering consumption. The BODY full
OF life grew thin, the cheeks b,ushino
with health paled, the step springing
with vivacity began to drag, the song,
loud and clear, died away. Then the
earthly future lost its brightness, and

The lecture of Mrs. DR.. T. H. Pearne
on Tuesday evening in the Methodist
Church gave great satisfaction to her
many friends here. "what 1 Saw in
Europe" was elegantly, graphically and
eloquently described by the lady. Mrs.
Pearne sees everything worth seeing
with no ordinary eyes. She has a fine,
cultivated voice and impressive and
graceful presence. When describing
the scenes of foreign lands she rises to
the sublime. Her lecture is chaste,
high toned and breathes the Christian
spirit. Mrs. Pearne will always be
warmly welcomed back to her old charge,
where she is held in high esteem.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
tFrom our regular correspondent

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 25th, 1891.
The President has, it is understood
here, decided that NJ. NJ. Estee, of Cali
fornia, shall enter his Cabinet when the
re- organization made necessary by the
retirement of Secretary Proctor and the
expected retirement of Attorney General
Miller, takes place. 1t is as yet uncer.
tain whether MIR. Estee will become At.
torney General or Secretary of the Inter.
ior, as Secretary Noble will probably be
given the privilege of exchanging his
present portfolio for that of Attorney
General il he wishes to do so, and it is
believed that he does. Mr.. Estee would
probably have gone into the Cabinet
when it was first organized, but he de.
clined serving in any place except that
OF Attorney General or Secretary of the
Interior, and both of these places had
been rendered to and accepted by the
present incumbents before the President
WAS made acquainted with Mr.. Fosters
wishes
Secretary Foster will 60 to Ohio about
the first of October for the purpose of
taking the stump for Mckinley. His
speeches will, in the main, be upon
financial topics, although he will not
slight Safes affairs, upon which few men
in Ohio are 80 well posted. The secre.
tary takes special pleasure in recalling
the doleful predictions which the Demo.
Gratis have made of the coming crash in
the Treasury ever since he became it's
head, and OF the ease with which the |
treasury has passed every predicted |
crisis, not only without default or deficit,
but with cash tospare. All these things
he will tell the Ohio voters in his own
nimitable style. He will also show
hem with indisputable figures that the
Democratic predictions of future
are as wild and baseless as
we're all OF those which have gone be
'ore.
Postmaster General Wanamaker, ever
'live to increasing the efficiency of the
postal service, had the Division Superin.
endents of the Railway Mail Service of
he entire country here this week, in
'rder that they might confer and give
ZACH other the benefit OF their individual
experience improving the service. The
Improvement of the mail service has
'een continuous from the time it came
'ack into the hands OF the Republicans,
omewhat crippled on account of the in.
Efficiency of large number of the EN-.
'loyes appointed by the Cleveland ad-
ninistration, but the improvement
uring the fiscal year ending June 80
ast, as shown by the official reports,
7as something marvellous, and reflects
reat credit upon everybody connected
18th the service in any capacity. The
ailway mail clerks distributed $500, ,OOO..
more than were distributed the
revious year, and only one error to each
l93 pieces handled was made, against
ne error for each 2,799 pieces the pre-.
Ious year, and the number of com.
laints have been fewer than ever before.
hile the complimentary letters from
1siness houses have never been so
lmerous. The Superintendents say
at the present fiscal year will show a :
arked improvement upon the last, good
that was.
