A Splendid Trip.

All who can afford the time and the
money take at least an annual vaca-
ton. The question each has to decide
is, "Where can | go to the best advan-
tage where enjoy myself the most for
the least money!"
Not few Vermont people other than
G. A. r. men are turning their eyes
toward Louisville. A trip to that his
toric city would be most enjoyable,
and the expense moderate ; but all
who go as far as Louisville should go
a little farther Immediately after the
6. A. r. encampment, September 10
and 20, occurs the dedication of the
great national park at Chickamauga,
near Chattanooga, Tenn. Few people
have any idea of the magnitude and
significance of this dedication. The
park to be dedicated embraces two of
our most noted battletields, one of the
combats ranking among the deadliest
of all actions of modern wars; the
other, because of the mountain ridges
WHlCl NClC lLlS OkJjSSllNSS VI eAiN bpbtiN,
being unrivaled in its spectacular
features. Besides these, the park was
the theater of the three important
minor affairs of Browns Ferry, Wau-
hatchie and Orchard Knob. Nearly
all of the great armies of the Union
and of the south, led by many of the
foremost chieftains on each side, took
part in these engagements.
The park comprises 5000 acres of
blood-stained soil and the government
has spent nearly 81 100000 in improve
ment All the states north and south
which had troops on the ground have
erected monuments in memory of their
brave dead Congress appropriated
900 for the dedication and it is eX-
pected that President Cleveland and
most of his cabinet will be present. 1t
is prophesied that 100000 people from
all parts of the Union will be present.
1t is the only park in the country of
any magnitude where the memory of
both the Confederate and Union dead
is cherished. The dedication of this
park will mark an epoch in history.
Immediately after this great event,
September q, the Atlanta Exposition
opens. Fortunate is the tourist who
can visit Louisville, Chattanooga and
Atlanta next September. 1t will be
the trip of lifetime.

Two Fights.

James J. Corbett, Gentleman Jim, I"
the champion heavy weight pugilist,
has two fights on his hands. One will
take place in Dallas, Texas, the latter
part of October, when he meets Fitz-
simmons in the ring the other is a
gentle scrap now going on with Mrs.
Corbett who has sued for divorce.
Extensive preparations are being
made for the fistic contest in Dallas
A huge amphitheatre will be con-
structed with seating accommodation
for 52,S15 patrons of pugilism, distrib-
uted as follows Unreserved seats,
$4,000 reserved seats, ,6SS seats in
boxes, 2,406 seats for press, 652. 1t is
claimed that this amphitheatre will
have larger arena than any men
toned in ancient or modern history
since the days of Titus, A. D. 172. 1t
is confidently expected that this attrac-
ton will draw together as large crowd
as the G.. E. movement did in Boston.
This comparison shows two radically
different sides of human nature.
"Gentleman Jim" may win in the
combat at Dallas, but it looks very
much like he would be vanquished in
the divorce proceedings. 1t will be
remembered that the champion, like
some other champions, had no sooner
won his spurs than he was pushed onto
the stage and made the star in tray
cling theatrical company. Mrs. Cor
betu charges her spouse with improper
relations last April with "Vera," one
of the characters in the show. In fact
it is claimed that the twain travelled as
man and wife, and manifested great
affection for each other. This sounds
bad for the reputation of sporting
fraternity who has been held up to all
the world as a thoroughbred gentle.
man on whose character the debasing
tendencies of the profession he follows
had no evil effect.

A New Party.

Senator Pfeffer of Kansas of long
whisker fame has lost all faith in exist
ing parties. His great mind cannot be
circumscribed by existing party lines I;
his vaulting ambition will be satisfied
with nothing short of new party,
and, it might be added, with Pfeffer at
the head of it.
In a recent letter the great Pfeffer
gives the following lucid explanation
of what this new party should advo-
cate T.:
cts motto will be something like this
Let the people rule Its platform could
properly be short, plain, and impressive to
the needs of the times, and could be safely
constructed on six pillars.
l. Get the people at work; pay them for
what they do.
2. Away with landlordism.
3. Out with the transportation monopoly.
A. Out with the money power.
5. Up with the people.
6. Live the republic.

Mother of All.

In an address before the G.. E. con-
vention last week which was loudly
applauded the Rev. William G. Puddle
foot of South birmingham, Mass, a
Congregational preacher, is reported to
have said
"The two greatest evils the church has all
along had to contend with are race prejudice
and sectarianism. We have them with us
now. Let us not foment them.
Look at these thousands of people who
come into this country from the north. You
can see them at Point Lewis and you would
hardly recognize them when you see them a
year later, with their leather bound prayer
books and hymnals, coming out of church
in part of this city.
But you say, they came out of a Roman
Catholic church, Yes, so did you all. That
church was the nursing mother of you all,
thousands of years before you were born OF
thought of. If you are to walk in step with
the old mother you must put ON the gospel
Shoes"

The Mora Claim.

1t is again announced semi-officially
that the Mora claim of 81, 10000 is
about to be paid. In 1870 the Spanish
government, without a shadow of a
right, seized the property of an Ameri-
can citizen living in Cuba, Antonio
Maxine Mora. A claim for indemnity
was made against the Spanish govern
ment, which has been hanging fire
ever since. Mora is now IS years OF
age and much broken in health. He
lives in a flat in New York with bis
daughter Emeline.
1t is stated that syndicate of New
York lawyers who have been working
the claim will deduct 40 per cent fol-
professional services and Mora will be
paid the remainder. Mora is getting
old and without any violent pangs OF
conscience the lawyers could probably
take the whole.

The acrobatic editor of the Clare
mont Advocate has discovered that the
issues of the Boston papers during the
recent G.. E. convention in that city are
specimens of cheap journalism. This
must make the Boston papers feel bad
indeed. They owe the editor of the
Advocate an apology. 1t is very
strange too that the enterprise of these
papers was not only praised by the
Endeavorers, but by the press all over
the country as well, but there is no
accounting for tastes. The Boston
papers We're criminally negligent in
not asking advice of the up-country
quill pusher and averting this horrible
blot on good journalism.

Alderman Dever, who was che of the
aldermen voting against allowing the
Patriotic Sons Ct America to appear in
the regular parade, in a speech before
the board of aldermen in Boston last
week said
zone great reason, in my opinion, for this
outbreak, is that for the past ten years or
more it has become the fashion with certain
people to revile the Catholics, the Catholic
church, the priests, the laymen, the schools
in fact everything pertaining to Catholicism
characterizing Catholics as enemies to The
country, as wanting to destroy its institu-
tions, as owing allegiance to Rome.
"Why, what bosh that is! Just think of it
yourself. You know better. Any boy like
you, born in Boston, knows differently.
mo, am Catholic, and am proud of it,
am an American and am proud of it-not
like those who to-day travel our streets and
who have not forsworn their allegiance to
Queen Victoria, queen of Great Britain and
Ireland"
Alderman Dever evidently had the
Orangemen in mind most of the time
he was making this speech.
The New York Sun has again discov-
cred manifestations of desire or in
tention on the part of the Christian
Endeavor movement to NEEDLE in mat
ters outside its legitimate sphere and
an ambition to become power in poll
tics. 1t bases its discovery on the fact
that several of the speakers during the
convention urged the members of the
order to become good citizens and came
out f1at-footed against political .jobbery
and municipal corruption. If incul-
eating the principles of the highest cit
izenship is inimical to the influence of
a religious order and the perpetuity of
American institutions let us have more
of this inimicality.

1t Will BE Resumed March 4 by thI
Virginia Jockey Club.

At meeting of the executive committee
of the Virginia Jockey Club, held yester-
day afternoon, 1t was decided that racing
should be resumed at the st. Asaph's juno
ton track on Monday, March 4, TO be con-
tnued Indefinitely. 1t was also decided to
arrange about fifteen or twenty stake
events, the added money running from
81 900 to $500, to be run for during April
and May. These stakes will probably be
announced next week, entries to close about
March /. The purses will be of about the
same value as those of the past fall meet
ing of the club. Tom Flynn, who started
at the Gloucester track, will probably act
in the same capacity at the coming meet
ing Jimmy Rowe being engaged at the
San Francisco track, and a new presiding
judge and associate judge will be likely Sc
lected to serve in place of Judges Simmons
and Mcdowell, who will be engaged at
New Orleans.
At the meeting yesterday the following
officers of the club were reelected: h. c.
Dcwnham, president; H d. Mcintyre, sec
rotary; J. n. Kirk, treasurer; Thomas F.
Eagan, E. c. Downham, H. d. Mcintyre,
