of stimulating the Waco Christian

A WORD ABOUT
 Rubber Footwear.

It has been advanced in price about thirty per cent, which took effect April 1st, 1893.
 How IS that, you ask? Why, just this. All manufacturers of Rubber Footwear put up their prices, and we must pay them or go without. What will be the result One thing is, there will be lots of cheap grade rubbers sold, and unless you are posted on the different makes you will be un- able to tell by their look first quality from second or third quality. That you may be able to buy intelligently, 1 give you list of the brands in use the present season.

MT. Gladstone was eighty-four years old Dec. 29, and the occasion was time of rejoicing throughout the English speak ing world. Whatever men may think of his home rule policy, his noble, upright character will always be admired and his name honored as the greatest living statesman. As an orator, scholar, states man and financier, he easily holds the foremost place. He is not the equal of Bismarck in his management of foreign affairs, and he could never have welded together the states of the German en- pire. But he is broader statesman than Bismarck, though not possessing such an iron will. Bismarck is not yet eighty yet he is much older intellectually than MT. Gladstone. Many will remember the touching letter he sent to MT. Sturgeon when the great preacher was in his last illness. As MT. Sturgeon said in reply, "It was the letter of one who had been in the kings country and seen much of his face"
 President Cleveland gives Senator Hill another anti-snapper nomination to con- siGer for associate justice of the supreme court in the name of Wheeler H. Peckham of New York. MT. Peckham was chair man of the bar association which drew the charge against Judge Maynard and has been an open opponent of Tammany, of Governor Hill and of the state machine It is about as bitter dose as could be offered the New York senators and Sena- tor Hill will probably report against it. Is is generally believed however, that MT. Peckham will sooner or later be con- firmed, for his qualifications are admitted by the New York members of the house and by members of the bar and his reiec- tion would make it plain that the opposi- Hon was personal to the president and his friends rather than based upon the candi- dates lack of qualification.
 The Chinese Six Companies, the abso- lute rulers of the Chinese in America, have issued a notice ordering their mem- bers to register under the new law. This oOolAOo ol 1louOlC, uc 1fo COOll0 WOulo dream. of disobeying such mandate This radical change of the leaders of the Six Companies is attributed to the advice of their American counsel, who has warn- ed them that failure to comply with the law this time will be promptly punished.
 Rev. Dr. Dewitt Talmage of the Broad way Tabernacle says that he will resign his charge next spring. The relations of the doctor with his people are pleasant, but he thinks that 25 years is long enough for one continuous pastorate.

The Church of the Good Shepherd in Hartford is giving a course of lectures at Charter Oak Hall. John Addison Porter gave an interesting talk on ''The Modern Newspaper" Among other things MT. Porter advised his hearers to support the local press of the city. The press of Hartford is well worthy of your support It deserves the enthusiastic and generous hacking of the community. The news papers of this city are readable, clean, and every editor and publisher in this city takes pride in improving his paper just as fast as the support of the public will warrant it. But the public owe a duty to the newspapers IS well as the newspapers to the public. Don't keep on buying a paper which violates the .canons of decency and propriety. A newspaper is in a great measure what the public demand and make it. Carlyle says ''the sovereign remedy of the people against bad newspaper is to let the edi- tor starve."
