There appears to be varied opinions
among ministers OF the gospel in the
cities about the propriety of'men wear
Ing shirt waists in church without coats.
Some ministers tolerate the wearing of
shirt waists while others denounce II
bitterly. 1t is our opinion that people
should be permitted to go to church or
any other place dressed with view to
comfort. In winter some churches are
so cold that men are compelled to sit
with their oyercoats on, and in the
sweltering summer they should be per-
mitted to sit in their shirt sleeves.
There are many people who stay away
from church in summer on account of
the heat, and it seems that ministers
ought to be glad to welcome anyone
with coats or without coats, just so they
could be induced to attend the services.
We believe our pastors in Punxsutaw-
ney are endowed with good sense enough
TO be ministers of comfort" and that
none will feel offended If man chooses
to sit In church with his coat and vest
off.--Punxsutawney Neps.

Dear Sir: II. M. Hooker Il Co., Coop

built house in 's5 and painted Devoe, of
course. The paint lasted ten years.
a year or two later, a neighbor built
ahouse, and painted It lead and oil. The
neighbor's house was rcpainted twice In
the same time,
This looks as II the neighbor's house
was painted three times in eight or nine
years, and McGown's once In ten years.
We are not quite sure--we tell the tale

In speaking OF the Republican candi.

ming Times says: "As yet no Arm.
strong county man seems to have aspir.
alton In that direction, although this

Jefferson is the largest county in the
district, and Armstrong and Indiana
counties have both had two terms in
Congress since Jefferson county has
been given the nomination. Just how
paper can honestly claim that Arm.
strong county is entitled to the nomina.
tion is more than we can understand.
Jefferson county can justly claim to be
entitled to the nomination next year,
and we don't believe there is any doubt
but that she will get it, and that Hon.
w. o. Smith will be the nominee from
this county. He is entitled to the
nomination without opposition.

just stop to consider the immensity of

Read in connection with the awful things

lieve that we are in pretty sad plight
up in this region.
1t is impossible to believe that there
is a settled design on the part of those

er bureau or elsewhere, to do this city
or section injustice. Nor would such a
dispatch as that here quoted of itself
amount to anything, were it not that it
is simply to be taken as fairly repre-
sentative of the class Of information
which is given currency regarding wealth
er conditions in the Northwest.

Three contracts for enlargement Of
public school facilities wee approved

meeting last night. The plans for re-
modelling the Humboldt school were ac-

is $4,000. The additions to be attached
to the Longfelow school were decided
upon, and they will cost approximately
$15, 10G. A new school building will be
erected on the corner OF Pacific avenue
and Cypress street, the cost of which Is
estimated at 1880.
The architects were unable to submit
their plans for the erection of a new
public school building in the Eighth
ward, consequently the board took no
action upon that proposition, other than
to defer it for ten days longer, in COM
pliance with the request of the arehi-
tects. At that time the plans will be
