Passalc Items.

The ice cream supper advertised
for Tuesday night was postponed
until Thursday night, and on that
date took place, at the Union church
in our little village of Passaic. Quite
a crowd was in attendance and a
real good old time, with plenty to
eat and every one in good humor,
was enjoyed. The church people
around here are an earnest, hard
working kind. and no small difficulty
keep them from an undertaking
when once they commence it.
About ST was taken in, and will
be appropriated toward giving the
church a new coat of paint, of which
it stands in need.
Col. Marshall Wolfe took an ac-
tive part, and was auctioneer in sell
ing the cakes.
"Pa" Kennedy wanted his ice
cream warmed, and as there was no
way to accommodate him, he went
hungry.
Geo. Walls arrived on late train
from Rich Hill, where he had been
attending the fair, and swelled the
receipts considerably. That is If the
amount he eat was any sign.
Harry Kennedy and sister, Miss
Mammie, gave us solo which was
good and highly enjoyed by all.
''Lonzo' Loekard got in front of u
young lady waiter and had quite Il
time saving himself.
Geo. Thompson was as gay as a
young American and didn't eat by
himself either.
Col. Sharp eat his cream all alone.
Guess he couldn't persuade any of
the ladies to eat with him. He is
batching you know.
Good order was preserved all the
way through. Thanks to that
smooth way of Col. Wolfe's.
Eleven o'clock all broke up. Hope
to have one again.

The Study d finance.

The October Forum brings an able
article by Edward Tuck, In which he
says:
ut is undoubtedly true that the
great majority OF men, not having
carefully studied the monetary cues
ton, incline at first to the side of gold
monometalism. This has been the
case with nearly all the great adyo-
Gates of bimetallism in Europe today.
They have become converted to the
himetallic faith from observation OF
the consequences of the gold standard
and by careful, unbiased search for
the cause. IL is only after study and
reflection that the true bearings of the
silver question can be understood.
The opinion of the great mass of the
agricultural classes of both Europe
and America, supported by distin-
guished economists and statesmen in
every country, deserves a respectful
hearing. Those who wear the shce
know best where it pinches. The ag-
ricultural classes have in the past suf-
fered most from the shrinkage in
prices brought about by the witless
error of sundering silver from and
subordinating it to gold. Even those
who scott at silver and hug their gold
are short-sighted indeed, if they be-
lieve that they can permanently pros
per while the great producing classes
are being impoverished"
