New York. Aug. "a special to the
Herald from Washington says: 1t does
hot seem to he the present plan of the
administration To have a general pa
rade of the army i'm New York city.
Secretary Alger said there might be 2
parade there of the state troops. but
he knew nothing Of n plans other
h that. The army was in a too
n dehiiiuated condition To
march i'm a parade. The secretary said
that as soon a General Shafter had
arrived at Moutauk oin IT was eN-
TcCted that h president would go
there TO review the whole corps. Gen
erl Shafter had expected To sail last
Saturday, but had been delayed a few
days. 1t Is also not believed that GEN
cral Miles would be present at the re-
view at Mpntauk Point As the occasion
will probably be a 5th army corps cele-

ARE THEY REPUBLICANS OR SIM
PLYA SCHEMlNG CLlOUE7

From all the information [ am able
to gather, the idea of calling republic
an village caucuses was originated by
an individuality o feared his ''schemes"
would fail unless he could plan a
campaign of his own and rally some
powerful combinati ion to his assistance.
In such cases candidates must be care
fully selected or the objectfails. Why
did he not dare trust his cause to the
people at the general caucuses as has
been customary since the village was
organized?
The so-called republican, village
convention when assembled refused to
endorse the National or State platform.
Possibly this was part of the scheme.
They dared not endorse the state plat
form with it's declaration in favor of
license. They want to assume the
party name but dare not stand on the
party's platform nor endorse repub-
lican principles. The republican par
ty never recognize such scheming.

Union Evange1istic Meetings.,

: The series of meetings conducted by
Evangelist w. A. Sunday and his
Musical Director, F. E. Oliver, closed
last Monday night. In many respects
this ''revival' was one of the most re-
markable ones that Salem has wit
messed and Evangelist Sundays meet
ings have been a grand success. For
nearly three weeks he expounded the
Scriptures with singular power and
eloquence, and led about 800 into the
way Of salvation. He was ably as
sisted by Rev. Sutherland, of the
Presbyterian church; DR.. Wood, of
the NJ. E. church: Rev. Carter and
others not forgetting the religious
people of all denominations and al
most all our leading merchants and
business men. Certainly it has been
a glorious harvest and there has been
a grand awakening throughout the
county. At one of the meetings the
entire audience of fully 1000 people
arose and asked the prayers of the
churches. Some of those who we're
deep in sin have tasted the Bread of
Life and some who ''came to scott re-
manned to pray" Some, who a few
weeks ago, were tiguratively in the
cutters, whose existence was almost a

Which is ruling our country, money

People are getting quite religious

The Baptists are prospecting under
the leadership of Nelson, Widing and
Chr. Johnson, while the Lutherans are
led by Rev. Thomasberg and others.
Some one predicts wind-up of
Mother Earth in April; but the farm
ers are getting their seeders in order
all the same.
Others claim this locality for wild
oats and mustards-I don't know.

Moving the Lights.

The great naphtha torches, with their
daring flame, seen in the street where
men are at work at night, always attract
attention. They are most striking,
however, when seen moving. In laying
asphalt pavement, as load after load of
asphalt for the first layer is dumped to
be spread upon the roadway, the naph-
tina torches are moved along to light
the work. They are carried on wheel
barrows. 1t may be that lighted torch
is brought up in this manner from a
distance of half a block. 1t is not the
greatest spectacle in the world, but it
is certainly curious and interesting
sight to see man wheeling one of these
torches along the sidewalk, with anoth-
or man walking beside the barrow and
holding the pipe to steady it, while all
the time the two foot fame is flaring
out at right angles with the pipe from
under it's hood above.-New York Sun.
