II. H. Faxon prints some figures to
show what has happened in Quincy,
Mass, with no saloon, in twenty years.
In that time the population has more
than doubled, the valuation has in
creased nearly three-fold, the deposits
in the savings bank nearly five-fold,
and new houses more than five-fold.
These things were to be expected in
prosperous city so near Boston; but
what was not to be expected in the Or
binary course of things was that, while
the population increased 120 per cent.
the amount expended for the poor de-
partment should decrease IL per cent.
Five cities in Massachusetts with
smaller population paid much larger
sums for the support of the poor
Boston Christian Register.

Temperance and Common Sense.

There are many hopeful signs in the
Temperance outlook in America. 1t is
a matter of common observation that
social drinking is less the rule than 1t
once was. and our strenuous economi-
cal development tends toward temper
ance and even toward total abstinence.
One element of encouragement is the
growing spirit of tolerance and pract1-
cal common sense among temperance
advocates of our day.-The May Cen

DEATH OF MADISON L. GROSE.

Yesterday afternoon the sad news was brought to this city by M. F. Grose of the finding of the dead body of his father at their ranch home in Spring Valley. It appears from the testimony that MT. Grose was preparing to come to town some time Thursday and had sad dled a horse, intending to round up a span of mules. It is presumed that he was seized with an attack of heart trouble and died from that cause, as no marks of violence were found upon the body to indicate otherwise.
 He was last seen about on We'd nesday morning by his son, and appeared to be enjoying good health at that time. On Thursday, Matt, who was working for MT. Donaldson, returned to the ranch and found a saddled horse lose in the pasture. After searching some time the body of his father was discovered lying in the road about two hundred yards from the house. The son immediately came to town, where his parents have been living and told the sad news.
 Coroner Jos. Johnston immedi- ately left for Spring Valley and the remains were brought in last night. At the inquest held this morning the following verdict was rendered:
