Several robberies have been COM
mitted in this county recently in a bold
and bandit style. Three masked men,
or properly boys, entered the house of
two old men about two weeks ago, held
a revolver to their heads, and made
them hand over their valuables. One
of the victims was Walker Smith, of
Beaver township, and another Henry
Fetter, who lives near Mort Freedom.
Now, most people in the vicinity of
these places think they know exactly
who the guilty parties are. They speak
as though there was no doubt about it.
They say they are three young men
who live near North Freedom. II there
is any reasonable certainty as to the
perpetrators of these outrages, they
should be arrested before they do any
more devilment. 1t is dangerous to let
such desperadoes run at large. Young
men who will brake into a house and
force man TO hand over his watch and
money at the point of gun would,
under desperate circumstances, commit
murder.

The Homestead strike or lockout,
which occurred on the 25th day Of June,
was declared of last Sunday morning,
after long and desperate struggle
getween labor and capital. 1t has been
one of the most famous labor troubles
in the history Of the country. The vote
that declared the mill open to Amalga-
mated men stood 10l ayes to 81 noes.
The only possible way for laboring men
to win in a struggle with capital is to
stand firm as one man.

Education and comfort and luxury

contentment. But there is deep
philosophy in this weak stupidity. An

other marks of civilization, he said:

The excellence Of early rising and its
inspiring influence on both body and
mind have been themes for the poets
song and the sage's sermon. Early
rising promotes cheerfulness of temper.
opens up new capacities of enjoyment
and channels of delight to which the
sluggard must be insensible. 1t increases
the sum of human existence by stealing
from Incidence hours that would else be
utterly wasted, and better still,
unquestionable conduces to longevity.
All long livers have been early risers.
Now the habit of retiring to bed at late
hours will hardly admit of early rising;
therefore the necessity of refraining
from the one in order to secure the
advantages Of the other. From six to
eight hours are generally held to be
sufficient, and no doubt on the average
are so. Our sleep is regulated much by
the season. In winter people lie longer
on account, as they say, of it being too
dark to get up early. There is some
plausibility in the reason, but the
system in cold and dark weather is
more prone to sleep than in light and
sunny times. Invalids need generally
plenty of bed rest, but they should
procure it by going early to bed. There
is more health and strength to be found
in the practice of seeing the sun rise
than in looking at it in any other part
Of the day.-Ex.

OUR CITY.
A Much-Traveled Clergyman Gives
Ills ImnreSSions of II

His Impressions of 1t.
Rev. Mr.. Burton delivered very in
teresting sermon at the Christian Churcn
last evening. In opening he stated that
| while he found much to admire in the
| city, he also found things to condemn.
He said he had been resident of this
beautiful city long enough to feel that he
| was not visitor, to be entertained, but
was taking deep interest in all that per-
tains to the welfare of our city.
| This was his first spring in Sacramento,
and he had never IN any city been SO in
fused with the lavish manner in which
this country had been blessed. 1t did not
seem possible that the native sons and
| daughters OF California could be indiffer-
ent to the responsibility resting on them
| to bring up the reputation of our cities,
| morally, socially and spiritually. No
more glorious opportunities were ever
held out TO any people on the face of the
earth, from u business standpoint; for
business and religion should go hand-in-
hand.
He did not believe in the three classes
laid down by George Eliot, as men,
women and preachers. AS preacher, he
was Interested in all that pertained to the
good of the city of his adoption, and in
many things he was proud of it. He
and tumble-down quarter; but on look
Ing at the various churches he could not
say he was proud of them. On the other
hand, while he intended no slur, he had
In all his travels, from one end of the
continent to the other, never seen poorer
for the size of the city. Sacramento is
yet In its infancy; it's business institu-
uons are guarantee of it's future; the
| bow OF promise is spread over our city,
| but we must see to it that we keep in the
line OF progress-that we be not relegated
to one side.
We are cosmopolitan people, with
cosmopolitan ideas-big ideas-but we
need an am mbltion to create a better repu-
tation abroad. We want people of the
East to understand that this is a city OF
churches, of schools and homes, good
place to bring up the boys aud girls. For
one, he wanted to close up the chasm that
seems to exist TO so great an extent be-
tween our business men and our
/ churches. He had never seen it so wide
in any community. Good, solid ,busi-
ness men he knew here who seemed to
| take no interest nor feel any ambition in
church matters. He protested that any
| business man, from a purely business
point of view, could be Indifferent to the
moral and spiritual status of commu-
nifty.
| Another thing he could not feel proud
of was the many saloons here, though
less than formerly. Some friend had
written him from Johnstown, Penn,
what terribly demoralized place it was,
and as an index of its wickedness said
| there were one hundred saloons in the
place. He had too much pride to own
how many there were here.
In closing he called upon his hearers to
do all in their power to bring our people
to higher stand in all that makes UP an
| ideal city of homes.

SHOCKING DEATH.
A Little Daughter of John Norton
Fatally Burned.


Winnie, the seven-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Norton of this city,
met on Saturday afternoon with an acci-
dent at the home of her uncle, John
Oberg, at % Hermann street, San Fran
cisco, which resulted fatally.
The little one had been sent down by
her parents on visit to the Obergs, and
while the child was alone for short
period in the kitchen Mrs. Oberg, from
another part of the house, heard the
screams of the child, and found her run
ming into the yard with her clothing
atire.
Mrs. Murray, living next door, saw the
child, and grabbing with rare good sense
a blanket, climbed the fence separating
the two yards, and before wrapping 1t
about her sought to tear the flaming
clothing from the child's body, in which
act her hands were severely burned.
The child, however, was badly burned
about the face, hands and arms.
In some unaccountable manner Win
MES clothing caught fire from a stove in
which the fire was nearly extinguished.
Her parents were telegraphed for and
hastened TO San Francisco, but the child
died yesterday of her injuries.
