Tie schubert onarietie

Seldom, If ever, has an entertain
ment, at once so delightful and
successful been given in Brook
haven, as that furnished by the
Schubert Quartette, of Chicago, in
the Institute Hall of Whitworth Col
lege on last Thursday evening. 'The
Schuberts" inaugurated the Lyceum
/ Course, that has been so highly COM
mended and so eagerly anticipated for
some weeks by the appreciative people
OF our town. For this initial number,
Pres. Chambers has been overwhelmed
with congratulations and his always
smiling face now beams with a CLEAN
of triumphant satisfaction, while his
well-wishers and friends, who are le-
gion, rejoice with him in the happy
contamination of so excellent q plan
to further the interests of the College
and to afford our people really merito-
rious entertainments, literary as well
as musical. The Schuberts have add

feel the honor of their presence and
the merit of their reputation. Miss
Hughes, the beautiful and graceful
harpist of the evening, won greatly
upon the vast audience; while Miss
Reade was unusually complimented as
an elocutionist. The whole program,
consisting of ten numbers doubled by
encores) was above reproach; and
mere mention of the Schubert
.Quartette" will always awaken memo
ries of melody rich and beautiful, I'M
til, perhaps, "the angels clear the way"
for music, it may be, sweeter, for harps
more golden and for words more SYM
pathetic. Meantime, Brookhaven de-
mands a return of this excellent
troupe.
On Dec. Dist will take place the Pu-
pills. Recital, which promises to be of
unusual interest, and to which all are
cordially invited. This will be followed
by evenings of still greater merit and
interest, as will be seen elsewhere in
our columns. The season tickets of
$3.50 are remarkably cheap for this Sc
ries of seven entertainments.

The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1894-03-02

We have but little doubt that char,
coal is one of the best known remedies
for the disordered state into which
hogs drill, usually having disordered
bowels, all the time giving off the
worst kind of excavations. Probably
the best form in which charcoal can
be given is in the form of burnt corn
perhaps, because when given in other
forms the hogs do not get enough. A
distillery was burned in Illinois, about
which n large number of hogs were
kept. Cholera prevailed among these
hogs somewhat extensively. In the
burning of buildings large amount of
corn was consumed. To this burned
and partially burned corn the hogs had
access at will, and the sick commenced
recovering at once and large portion
of them got well. Many farmers have
practiced feeding scorched corn, put
ting 1t into the stove or building q fire
upon the ground. placing the ears Of
corn upon it, leaving them till pretty
well charred. Hogs fed on still slops
are liable to be attacked by irritation
of the stomach and bowels, coming
from too free generation of acid, from
fermentation of food after eaten. Char
COAL whether II be produced by burn
ing corn or wood, will neutraliZe the
acid, in this way removing the irritat-
ing cause. The charcoal will be relish
ed to the extent of getting rid of the
acid, and beyond that 1t may not be.
Hence 1t is well to let the wants of
the hog be settled by the hog himself.

granted a new trial of the $1,000 dam
age suit of Frank Jackson against the
Kansas City Gable Railway, in which
Jackson was recently awarded 81 400
damages Mr.. Ashley, for young Jack
son, contended that If n new trial We're
to be granted in suits against cable
companies every time juror hap
pened to glance at a cable car, no ver-
dict for the plaintiff could ever stand
He also said that If man were SO
deaf, blind and stupid as not to notice
passing events such as the approach
Of a cable train he had no right to a
place on the jury. Judge Henry held,
however, that the inspection of Juror
Hickman was sufficient to warrant the
granting of n new trial. Trial by Jury,
he said would be farce If jurors were
permitted to get information out of

FROM DOUBT TO FAITH.

My voice with theirs, who know OF old
The century's sad disease which Stays
Our faith and strikes our yearnlngs cold;
J. who have listened while the coarse,
glib unbeievcr marshallcd out
His legions of unfaithful Doubt
And found no other god but Farce;
And laughed the Christian tale TO scorn,
The God-like Victim virgin-b born,
The atoning pain, the mystic cross
The sacred sanitary loss?
What care L? God there Is l know.
Who rules the worlds and bade Us be;
But shall He care for things below
And show His hidden face to me?
Far. far away he seems to stand,
Too bright. If present, for our need,
Nor else than through the Faith His hand
Has given us, know we Him indeed.
No other gave He. The strong hours
Have wreakCd I'm vain their age-lOng powers,
Unchanged as from His lips It camc
To-day 1t lives and rules the same.
Enough for me, and for my need,
Enough for dear lives dead and gone;
No other faith Is ours, nor creed,
To speed the labOring ages on.
Then since He Is, and since no more
Without Him can L live and move.

Architectural Era, was designed for
A. t.. Bigelow, of Crawford, Conn, by
NJ. n. Cutler, architect of No. 203
Broadway, New York. 1t is a good
modern adaptation of the Dutch colo
NAL farmhouse, and represents an ar
chitcctural style that is superior to any
other for farmhouse. The very as
poet of the house speaks of home COM
forts and seclusion. and of the rocks
and hills of nature. Half hidden
among trees, such house would seem
as much a part of Il country landscape
as are wood and field and hillside
Tho interior of the house affords
abundance of room both for domestic
purposes and hospitality.
The country home should represent
the highest development of social life.
