Influence of the Cholera.

Many of the fashionable dressmakers in this city and Brooklyn have sent pretty little circulars to their customers setting forth that all of their fall and winter dress goods and trimmings were brought over on steamships which carried no i'm migrants. In several other branches of business concessions are made to the cholera scare. We sell no tenement made cigars" is notice posted in down town tobacco shop. "This water has been distilled" is the label on the water coolers in several of the restaurants and cafes, and Bowery saloon keeper has put out big placard which informs the thirsty passersby that "there are no cholera germs in our beer" For the past week or two industrious peddlers have secured the down town business localities selling small leathern medicine cases. Each case contains dozen doses of "cholera cure," with printed instruc- tions how to take them.-New York Times.

Neither of Them Got Licked.

Dan Moody was raftsman on the Susquehanna river, and it was his boast that he could lick any man on the river from the mouth of the Chemung tc Havre de Grace. Dan lived at Towanda, in Bradford county, and finally grew old and rheumatic. In his old age "the boys" used to put stranger up to ques. tion Dan about his many fights, and after the old man got thoroughly interested and was boasting freely of his youthful exploits this question was sprung on him:
 But, Uncle Dan, didn't anybody ever lick you?"
 "No, sir, never got licked in my en. durin life"
 The next question was: "But, Uncle Dan, you came near getting licked once, didn't you? Seems to me I've heard that you came awful near getting licked just once. Tell us about that, won't you?"
 The old man had to be pressed to get the story ont of him, hut he would tell it occasionally. and here it is: "Once l

Jade IT cad in an Ancient French Grave.
 In an ancient grave at Gignac (Her. ault) M. de Lepouge has found a finely carved human head of jade, represent ing type of the great yellow skinned race or races. It is religious in charac- ter, and is evidently from China or Japan. NJ. Sindho regards it as Japa- nese work made from Hindoo or Singha- lese model of Buddha, little before the Christian era, while M. de Milloue con. siders it head of Kouan Yin, Chinese deity, and M. de Rosny thinks it head of Mayadevi, mother of Guatams, the founder of Buddhism. It is supposed to have been worn as an amulet around the neck of Hunnich or Gothic chief. The graves at Gignac are probably those of a settlement of the West Goths.-Lon- don Globe.

Cabs In London.

Statistics recently compiled in Lon don show that the number of cabs, both four wheeled and hanson cabs, is di- minishing. This is probably due to the extension of street car routes and demo- cratic ideas. During the last twelve months there were 3,0S9 four wheeled
 cabs licensed, as against 3,921 the year previous. There are over 1000 hansoms in the city, but their number is also di- minishing, though not so rapidly.-Lon-

GROWING WARMER.
Increasing Interest in the
 Voting Contest.
Jay Dewey Strong In First, Charles Solomon Retains Second, While
 F. Gabbert Holds Third.

THE REPUBLIcAN's worlds fair voting contest is taking on the interest antici- psted for the closing days. The vote during the past week has been enor- nous. It has been distributed among the four leading contestants without changing their order. Greater things are expected this week as what has been done in the week just closed shows an unexpected marshalling of forces.
 Jay Dewey of Talbot & Hubbard still has long lead. Chas. F. Solomon of Solomanville retains the portion &C., quired by him last week, while F. B. Gabbert of the E. F. kellner store holds third against the field by good thous- and, which though earlier in the fight was big margin, may hardly be con sidered a safe one at this stage of the game.

threshermen's faces and the COM

one acre from which ninety dozens
were cut. This is the theoretical

"a "multum in parvo," a system
rendered absolutely necessary by
existing conditions, and altogether
desirable, if the agricultural class
would obtain SUCCESS.
The recent refreshing showers,
the increased acreage in corn and
the magnificent growing condition

pea patches, the larger than COM

sugar cane, and the numerous

great gloom that over-shadowed
our community the past spring

HERE AND HEREAFTER.

AS the golden bells upon the
priests garments sounded out up
on the ears of waiting Israel from
within the veil, telling them THAT
he was yet alive; so let his
(Christ's) blessed promises fall
upon our ears, saying, "seeing he
ever liveth to make intercesslon
for u.s." and "Unto them that look
for HIM shall he appear second
time without sin unto salvation. =
Ia. ]. Gordon, ID.
Churches exist not merely for the
consolation and ultimate salvation
of their individual members, but
that the divine life which is in
them, developed, invigorated,
and disciplined by common wor-
ship, by the atmosphere and
traditions and public opinion of a
society which is the home of the
Spirit of Christ-may change and
transfgure the whole order Of the
world r. w. D. D.
One open reward of secret prayer
is spirituality of mind. By a
spiritual mind we do not mean a
severe mind, or sombre. We do.
not mean a peculiar pfraseolgy or
an affected religiohism; but we
mean that state of mind right with
God; when it is all alive to the
things of God; that vividness of
faith when the things unseen are
very solid. The man who abounds
in secret prayer will not only
preserve his own vitality, he will
carry away from Gods presence,
peace and Joy and energy enough
to make him benefactor of others.
A man mighty in prayer is a
perpetual comfort q continual
cordial in world like this. He
bears about with him a genial
/
cline. There is a gladness in his
coming for he never comes alone.
He carries his Saviour with him

Search Lights versus Torpedo Boats.

Search Lights versus Iofpedo BOATS
It is stated that one of the most effect.
i've means of protecting a ship in these
days of torpedoes (he grouping to-
gether of number of stationary search
lights, each illuminating its own section
so that the ship is surrounded by an un-
broken circle of light, is to be adopted
in the new American warships. This
has been suggested by very pronounced
defect in the usual search light practice.
In order to afford sufficient time for a
careful examination of the waters sur
face at points removed from the ship,
the beam of light must be revolved very
slowly, and hence during great por-
ton of the time any particular section
of the water is left in darkness. AS it
takes only five minutes for a torpedo
boat to run distance of two miles, it
will be seen that the conditions are all
in favor of the attacking force. Before
the revolution of the search light is COM
pleted there is plenty of time for the tor
pedo boat to run up and discharge her
deadly weapons.-New York Telegram.

He was followed by the ever

We learn that it is out of strug-
giles we must get the nobleness
and beauty of character after
which we are striving. One of the
old Scotch martyrs had on his
crest the motto, Sub pondere cresco
("I grow under weight.") On the
crest was palm-tree. with weights
depending from its fronds. In
spite of the weights the tree was
straight as an arrow, lifting it's
crown Of graceful foliage high up
in the serene air. 1t is well known
that the palm. grows best when
loaded down with weights. Thus
this martyr testified that he, like
the beautiful tree of the Orient,
grew best in his spiritual life under
weights. This is the universal
law of spiritual growth. There
must be resistance, struggle, con-
fict, or, there can be no develop
Iment of strength. We are inclined
to pity those whose lives are
scenes of toll and hardship, but
Gods angels do not pity them if
only they are victorious; for in
their overcoming they are climbing
daily upward toward the holy
heights of sainthood. The
!beatitudes in the Apocalypse are
for all overcomers. Heavens
rewards and! crowns lie beyond
.battle-plains. Spiritual life al
ways needs opposition. 1t -four
ishes most lu1uriantly in adverse
circumstances. We grow best un-
der weights. We find our richest
blessings in the burdens we dread
to take up.-[J. R. Miller, D. D.
