DIR lEErE RESIGNS.

Having received a httterihg prQpo'
sltion from q firm Of publishers in New
York city to prepare series OF articles
descriptive of distinctive features OF
the anthracite region, for publication
in well known magazine and wish
ing, also, to withdraw from the exact
ing and inc5ssant cares and labors OF
day-and night newspaper work. DR..
Allen Norton Lsete. for more than two
years editor OF THE TRIBUNE. has re-
signed.
ln noting the severance Of his con-
neetion with THE TRIBUNE the mau'
agement of this paper desires TO pub
licly acknowledge the steadiness aud
skill which he has contributed to its
service, first rs associate editor and
later as managing editor. Much OF
the remarkable success which has
characterized the papers progress is
due to his experienced control OF the
news aud editorial departments.
|. is the sincere hope Of Dr. Lsate's
former employers and associates that
the more reStful work which he will
now assume shall prove as beneficial to
himself as it will undoubtedly prove
valuable to the reading public. More
than quarter Of a century passed in
the harness OF daily newspaper pro-
luction is a record to look backward
upon with uncommon satisfaction.
That 1t may be the honored prelude to
still more honorable achievements in
the easier walks of literary labor IS the
wish of all connected with this paper.

BAND WAGONS.

There is no more picturesque Amsri-
can institution than the band wagon.
II is OF various kinds, sizes and hues
but as a nation we proudly possess all
varieties and readily exhibit each upon
it's appropriate occasion. The one most
in vogue, Of course is tho political
band wagon. Several such vehicles
are in motion at this writing. One
very noisy one, just now. is that filled
with tootsrs of the General Hastings
horn. Some Of the occupants OF this
particular wagon blow notes that are
strong and true, with the real ring Of
sincere esteem. Others raise din
which simply echoes the prevailing
keynote These would blow just as

ians have had some experience with
musicians Of this stamp They are
interesting, but scarcely important.
Another form of vehicle very much
in evidence now Is the Corbett band
wagon. 1t must be confessed that this
is highly relished by the titular hero
himself, who not only accompanies the
music with a personal rub'a.dub-dub
quite as loud and rs luSty as any noise
in the calendar, but even takes delight
in utilizing the racket as leverage
upon the American stage. Not every
person in the Corbett band wagon

rHE MOODY MEETINGS.

There is happily every reason to be.
lievs that the proposed series of out
door revival meetings by Evsngelists
Moody and distinguished assistants
will be held next summer, in the twin
valleys, during the months Of July,
August and September. II is possible
that the opening services will be held
in West PltLston, out of tribute to the
fact that West Pittstoniaus were the
first to take action in the premises.
But there will be chance for each
community from Carbonate to Nanti-
coke to have services of its own, pro-
yided these communities shall co -ope?-
ate in making the necessary prspara-
tIons. That it would be to the lasting
profit of each to do this is a PROPOSE -
tion hardly admitting Of denial.
All who have had the pleasure of
hearing scriptural truth expounded by
Dwight L. Moody know already that
there is nothing OF the s.ctarian or OF
the bigot in his methods or in his speech.
Neither, upon the contrary, is his style
that which temporarily appeals to the
emotions alone, and finds its only po-
tency in the evanescent stimulus Of
psychological excitement. Mr. Moody
does not depart from a community
leaving behind a circling wave of what
has been termed religious mania, which

stances the residuum of disappoint.

method, instead, is eminently rational
practical and convincing He does not
co1fne his appeal to one faculty alone !;
but rather presents the need and pleas

and with a uniform force, viyidness
and strength that make lasting i'm.

ity. Without venturing upon compar-
isons, it can be safely said that Mr.
Moody. as arevivalist, ia strong in all
the elements which made Mr.. Mills
services so effective In this city, and
that he possesses, in addition, the ad e.
vantage Of longer experience and wider
reDown. At a period when the agen
cips Of vice keep incsssantly and in
creasingly active, tits certainly no time
to contend that the church is in any
danger of becoming too thoroughly in
earnest. The appearance OF Mr.. Moody
and his assistants in this section next
summer, IN Scriptural exposition and
song, will not crowd the pro.
cesses Of spiritual revival; bnt rather
be a direct source Of widespread enjoy.
ment and permanent benefit.
