kYRk.-In Cresco, Iowa, March 9th
1891, at the residence OF her daugh-
ter, Phebe G.. Ciapser, Sarah kyrk,
aged o. years 6 months and II days.
Deceased was born in the state OF
New York, has resided in Illinois for
several years and has been with her
daughter for the last four years.
Mother oh mother, your feet have touched the
shining shore,
Where pain and death are felt no more.
Your weary head Is now ut rest,
Safely pillowed on Jesus breast.
No more your eyes with tears are dimmed.
Your heart with signs oppressed,
You laid your care at Jesus feet
And He has given you rest.
Rest dear mother In the grave SO low,
Where your Savior has laid, you were willing
to go.
Your hope was in Jesus. on Calvary slain,
With Him you will live. with Him you will
reign. Coz.

The result is certainly suspicious for
the interests of the school adverse to
that of the public-no cousins, neic-

TeIephOne Meeting.


The postponed annual meeting of
the Mutual Telephone Company was
held yesterday forenoon. Nothing
definite was accomplished in regard
to consolidating with the Bell COM
pany. 1t was shown during the
meeting that the prevailing desire of
stockholders was not to raise the
rent in case consolidation was
effected. The resolutions adopted
were rs follows:
Resolved, that the principle OF
consolidation of the two telephone
companies proposed by the two
Boards of Directors be approved by
the stockholders of the Mutual Tele
phone Company, provided, that one
of the terms of such consolidation
shall be that there shall be max
imum limit to the rates to be charged,
which shall be as follows: country
stations, $3.50; business houses, "a
dwelling houses, So a month
THAT the Directors be authorized
to prepare form of agreement for
such consolidation which will be
accepted by the Bell Telephone Com
pany and submit such agreement
to future meeting of this com
pany."

I A NOTE from DIR. Rodgers, gem
eral superintendent of the census,
states that "the population of
Honolulu is found to be, after q
careful revision of all the returns,
1883 being an increase of 2,402
since the census of 1884. A tabu-
lar statement, classifying the above
population by race and sex Is now
being prepared, and will be ready
in a few days" This shows an
increase for the six years since the
taking of the last census, of little
more than ten per cent. The
population of the city has gener-
ally been thought to be larger than
the returns show though there is
no reason to doubt their correct
ness, as the work is believed to
have been we'll done.

1t Is stated that the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company has de-
cided to build two new steamships
for it's China trade, and that these
vessels are to be constructed at
San Francisco. They are to be
of the largest class of ocean steam
ships, probably between five and
six thousand tons burthen, and will
cost one million dollars each. 1t
is intended that these vessels shall
equal the finest Atlantic ships in
speed, comfort, and safety, COM
bining all the modern improve
ments in their construction. From
what has already been done in San
Francisco in turning out fine ships,
it may be confidently expected that
they will equal any that are now
running on the Atlantic, and be a
credit to tho ship building industry
of that port.

INDUSTRIAL POLITICS.

General Master Workman Pow
der has issued circular letter to
the industrial organizations of the
United States asking their CO.
operation IN the National Reform
Industrial Conference, to meet at
Washington. The object of the
conference is to draw up political
platform that the different associa-
tions could endorse ct the elections.
The work to be accomplished,
according to the leaders ideas, Is a
difficult one, and not likely to pro-
duce satisfactory results. The
organization of which Powderly is
the chief executive is composed of
too many classes of laborers, the
interests of which are not alto
gethor in harmony. And when
such is the case, any formation of a
political platform will be attended
by the dissatisfaction and the con-
Fiction of opinions that naturally
follow any attempt to organize into
one policy those of several political
faiths. Consequently, while con-
ference might formulate few gen.
eral principles, it would fall wide
of its mark in effecting close
political alliance with so many
classes of laborers and political
affiliations.

on the subject. Having returned
to Washington from visit of in

/" This matter of saving seals is not

animals are in danger of extermin-

Here is the whole question in n

west Of Scotland. The males have great
proficiency and transmit their qualities
with such certainty that the marks arc
easily discernible. Both In British Amer
lea and that putt of tho United States
adjoining in the northwest tho Gallo
ways are fayorite, because Of their
hardness and easy keeping qualities, 1t
is safe to say that honless animals are

than others on account OF their peace
able disposition. The Galloways are
long and round in the body, with short
legs. The black hair has sometimes y

We present this week illustrations Of
the two famous breeds Of polled Scotch
beef cattle. They represent the two well.
known families, Abcrdecn-Angus and
Galloway Allen says OF both breeds,
"Thoy are Of medium size. mostly black
In color, although occasionally red, dun
or black and red brindlod, compact in
shape and hornless. They aro hardy,
easy keepers, early maturcd, and OF cx.
cellent quality for Hcsh. They thrive
well on rough soils and in severe eli.
mate" These cattle are well adapted TO
"ristling" on sparse pasture plains, and
Arc especially in demand on far western
ranches because they are horuless. They
cannot murder one another on the long
railway trips required TO convey the

OF the two families indicated. Fig. 1
represents champion prize winning
bull Of tho Aberdeen Angus breed. It IL
claimed by the advocates OF the Abcr.
deou-Angus cattle that they make better
beoyos for stall fattening than the other
black Scotch cattle, the Galloways, but
that tho Galloways are better adapted to
roughing It and picking up food for
themselves than the Aberdcens. At any
rate both arc well adapted to cold eli.
mates,
The Galloways differ from the Abor-
deems in having curly or rough coat
In the west the cowboys have frequently
tanned and prepared the skin Of the Gal
loway In the same manner that the In.
dian prepares the buffalo skin, and II is
said that the Galloway robo is scarcely
inferior TO the real buffalo robe. The
hair is thick, long aud very glossy.
