orOWu DcneaLn ana carried ITQm ulOck
to block as rapidly as the boys in blue
hove in sight. Behind them came q
company OF their brother patrol
men on foot, stepping out with
military precision to the music
Of Souxa's band, the latter acting as
special escorts to the band Of the Mexi-
can republic. Next In. line was Grand
Marshal Miles and his stat, but the ap-
pearance of the Indian fighter was not
welcomed with half the enthusiasm
evoked by the gaily uniformed Chicago
Hussars, who came along In columns OF
platoons. A long string Of carr1ges,
containing Mayor Washburne. the
members of the board Of aldermen and
the city officials followed the Hussars.
After these, and bringing up the rear Of
of the first division were the visiting
governors and the members of their
stats. Some were mounted, but the
majority preferred to use the vehicles
that were placed at their disposal.
There were people Of all states insthS
mass of humanity that lined the side-
walks, the windows and roofs and ball
comics from the start to the finish, and
as one governor after another was recog-
nized he was
Accorded a Noisy Welcome.
Everybody knew Mckinley, and Demo-
Gratis and Republicans alike had cheer
and waiving of hats or handkerchiefs
for the Little Napoleon, so that his pas
sing was in the nature of continuous
ovation. Right cordial, too, were the
plaudits which showered upon Flower
of New YORK. Russell of Massachusetts,,
white-baired Boies of Iowa, Pattison of
Pennsylvania, ministerial looking Chase
of Indiana and fat, gooi-natured Peck,
Peck of Wisconsin,, who laughed arid
chuckled to himself as though he were
cracking jokes in his Uranium for his
own special delectation.
The Second Division.
Three hundred Indian lads from the
Indian school at Carlisle, Pa, under
command OF Captain Plat, attired in
neat gray uniforms, had the post OF
honor in the second grand division, and
acted as escort to General A. p. Hawley.
Following them were civic societies of
every nationality, and Of almost every
conceivable name, many OF them unpro-
nouncable to those uninitiated.
The Third Division.
The third and last grand division Of
the parade was nearly as large as the
other two combined. II was composed
exclusively Of members of the Roman
Catholic organizations, fraternal. social
and benevolent. Captain Cahill twas
chief marshal, and he required the SER
vices of no less than 200 aides to keer
his division in applet order.
Although the route of the parade was
less than three miles long the procession
was fully ten miles in length. Rough
estimates of men In line varied from
30, TO 0,000. 1t was an imposing de-
monstration, but so complete had been
the preparations that the vast body of
marchers was handled with but compar-
atively trifiing confusion. The members
of the various organizations saluted
Vice-P President Morton and the distin-
guished guests as they passed the review
ing stand at the government building,
and in some cases cheers for the visitors
were called for and given with viii.

CHICAGO, Oct. Glowing to the dis
satisfaction expressed By the troops and
general public that no military parade
has been arranged for during the dedi.

have been completed for parade of all

next Saturday. 1t is probable the regu-
lars will also participate in the parade.

'.The Country Home and its Relation to
the Public School, was presented very
creditably by Miss Alice Horning. The
conduct of pupil at school is a sure index
to the home from which he came. In
many rural homes we find no papers or
books except a few school books or per-
haps the "Life of Jesse James," or other
like book. When the country home is the
abode of intelligence and refinement, dis
tricts demand and pay for regularly pre-
pared teachers; when home and school
co operate then, and only then, will the
country school reach that plane it ought to
occupy in laying the foundation for the
education of our young.
Miss Jennie N1cGlllis then favored the
institute with recitation.
"Woman's Employment" by Mrs. A. T.
French. In some places women have been
made to work with dogs; been harnessed
to the plow with oxen. It was formerly
the idea that woman could do but few
things; now it is found that she can do
anything Young men have hard time
but young women have much harder
one Women have become lecturers and
orators and succeeded we'll. Women em
ployed at various work are paid equal and
better wages than school teachers, many
i house girls are paid better than clerks, yet
they are looked down upon, and the clerks
and teachers considered their superiors.
Much could be done to elevate the house
girl by those who employ them and give
them more equal footing with Others.

SUCCESSFUL TRIP-The new light draft
steamer, r G. Young, made successful
trial trip Sunday. This trim little craft
was built at this city last summerby Messrs.
Young & Dove and taken to Salem to have
her engines and other machinery placed in
position, which was done by the Salem iron
works. She is expected to enter actively in
the upper river traffic, running between
Salem and Eugene. At Salem she will trans
fer her freight to the Ewood. which plies
regularly between Saiem and Portland. 1t
is proposed to run the Young through the
entire season, with her southern terminus
at Eagene as long as ths depth Of the water
will allow her to ascend so far. The Young
draws a scant twelve inches Of water and
has carrying capacity of seventyfive tons.
She has been built at a cost of about SIS, 900
aud her operation will prove IL great accom-
mediation to the people of the UPPER river.
Her schedule will call into requisition nu-
merous landings between Corvallis and the
upper river that have not been used for
many years.

language singularly clear, but the at
tractive feature Of his sermons, from an
artistic standpoint, is the rich imagery
drawn from prairie and border life. The
camp fire and the lonely trail, the mus
tang corral and the rude encounters Of
savage beasts and scarcely less savage
men, all come in as illustrations and
mingle strangely with Biblical sentences
and scenes. To his mind Sinai and the
wilderness, Jordan, Jerusalem and Geth-
semane are as real as the Ozark noun
tains and Texan plains, and incidents
from life on the latter vividly illustrate
Bible references to the former.

Sale of slaves In 1165.

The following advertisement was
published in the "New York Ga

Another notice of somewhat SIM
liar nature appeared in the same pa
per April %, 1865. 1t reads as fol-
lows:

But the most peculiarly worded ad-
vertisement is one published in the
"Philadelphia Weekly Mercury" of
May "a, 1926. Here it is in its orig
inal text:

of nearly 10 per cent in number of

A Man Lost on Lake Champlain

Joseph Gravel, an old resident of
Addison, tried to cross Lake Cham
plain 10 cutter the other afternoon.
He drove on the ice at point oppo-
site Port Henry. Shortly after ?
o'clock in the afternoon a fierce snow
storm came driving down from the
north. Mr. Gravel lost sight of each
shore. The road was easily followed
for few minutes, but soon the fierce
swirls of snow entirely obliterated the
track. He began to get frightened.
Only half mile away was the open
lake. He knew that there was treach-
erous ice in the vicinity and allowed
his horse to pick out his own road,
choosing rather to rely on the instinct
of the animal than on his own judg-
ment.
The snow blinded the horse, which
finally came to an abrupt stop. The
storm grew worse, and for hours the
bewildered man and horse wandered
around in a circle. Mr.. Gravel saw
spot ahead that looked treacherous.
He got out of the sleigh and went
forward to examine it. He found
the ice sound and turned to look for
his horse and cutter and they had dis
appeared. The storm increased and
the lf-crazed man ran this way and
that calling to his horse. In some
way his steps were guided toward the
New York shore. He has searched
for the horse since, but no trace of
the animal can be found. 1t is likely
that the horse and cutter were swal-
lowed up during the night.
Happy and content is home with THE Ro-
CHESTER lamp with the light of the morning.

scarcely one is now known in public
life, and Of the 'original abolitionists"
quiet old farmer or banker or very re-
tired business man here and there is
found, and of the whole lot not one is
quieter than George Schneider, presi-
dent of the National bank of Illinois
This gray haired Chicagoan is soft
spoken and benevolent looking, yet he
was revolutionist and soldier in Ger
many, and had his printing Office mobbed
in 1855 for "abolitionism. He was
born Dec. 10, 1928, in Rhenish Bavaria,
attained classical education at an early
age and joined the young Germany"
movement of 1S47-S with Carl Schurz,
Dr. Kinkel and many others since noted.
After the defeat of the revolutionists he
escaped to France and thence to Amer
lea, became editor of The Neue Zeit in
st. Louis, and was one of the most ac-
tive in that crusade which brought the
German exiles as body into the anti
slavery movement.
The German editors had two great ad-
vantages-all their supporters had been
duliSldNeIy luel dl uOlle, anu lll6 ldll-
guage in which their papers were pub
lished prevented any great attention be-
ing drawn to them by the violent men of
the other party. Nevertheless, the Office
of The Neue Zeit was attacked in 1856.
Editor Schneider was an active man in
that famous meeting in Chicago, Jan. 30,
1854, which instructed" Congressman
John Wentworth to fight the Nebraska
bill. The result was that the active
young Democrats of northern Illinois
nearly all became Republicans in 1876.
Mr.. Schneider was delegate at large
from Illinois to the Republican national
convention of 1856, and had much to do
in keeping "Knownothingism" out of
the platform; also in that of 1860, which
nominated Abraham Lincoln, who ap-
pointed him consul general to Denmark.
After the war he became banker and
has prospered.

AT the dispensaries in New York
where poor patients are treated without
charge it is customary to ask, so that
the charities may not have pauperizing
tendency, if any payment can be made
on medicines dispensed. The statistics
show that so out of every 100 persons
pay the charge of ten cents for each pre-
scription. This collection of 80 per cent
of ten cents for each prescription pays
for all the drugs used, and also for the
clerks employed to compound and dis
pense the medicines.

The Same Old Patriots.
Hardwick Gazette

Hardwick Gazette:
1t is an undoubted fact, and will be
demonstrated in the near future, that
many of the young men in the repub-
lican party in Vermont have become
weary of acting as the tail to the party
kite and as so much inanimate ballast
to the ship of state. The party is
run by the same patriots who controll-
ed its destines before the war, and
the only use of the boys is to vote
and keep quiet. The time is coming
when they will either be allowed rep
resentation in the party councils, OF
else the said councils will be badly
twisted and bent.
