MADE A SENSATION
Pastor of Presbyterian Church Rebukc
Young Lady Members For Being
lndisereet in Entering
Saloon.

The following dispatch appeared in
several OF the metropolitan lurnas
yesterday:
Cairo. ILL.,, July 21.--A small sensa-
tian was sprung In the Presbyterian
church today when Rev Buchanan in
a sermon said that he regretted that
certain young lady members Of his
congregation had visited saloon TIe
| did not oondemn them as bitterly as
might have been expested hut said
that their act probably was one OF
impulse, but that such impulses should
be guarded against
1t has since been learned that a
number of young women had taken
ND a dare made by their male escorts
few nights previous and entered
saloon. 1t is positively stated, how
ever. that nothing tsronger than soda
water and lemonades were INDUCED
| in. All might have ended well, as
| he hour was late and the streets and
saloon were almost deserted but On
leaving the merry crowd ran plumb
| into Rev. Buchann, who happened %
/ he passing. It is said thar he pre-
tended not to notice the fact that hey
| had emerged from the swing doors
and the members of the party felt at
ease, except so far as their con
sciences were concerned. The affair
is not locked upon seriously but the
young men who dared the girls TO
take the drink at the bar feel rather
sheepish.

MORAL SUASION FAILURE?
Probable Return to Corporal Punish
ment in New York Schools.

Probable Return to Corporal Punish
ment in New York Schools.
New York, Sept. 27.-The board of
education has ordered an Investigation
to determine whether the abolition of
corporal punishment has beer bene-
fetal or detrimental to the school sys-
tenn. Inquiry will be conducted by the
special committee of the members to
be appointed by President winthrop
and the opinions of superintendent
and principals will be sought.
Moral suasion is used entirely now
in the schools in disciplining pupils. In
the opinion of several school commits
%sioners it has proved utterly made
quite to maintain order and discipline.
Fully Is per cent of the principals are
unable to preserve order in their
schools.
Any return to corporal punishment
will be bitterly contested. however.
Many of the commissioners. possibly a
majority Of the board. believe that cor
poral punishment is barbarous and a
return to 1t a dangerous retrogression.
They showed plainly their temper when
a resolution calling for an investiga-
ton was introduced, but their efforts to
kill it We're unavailing owing to the
lack Of votes.

Selling has been very uneven turnout
but on the whole it was an unevenly
higher market and the average adj
vance all along the line has proven
a satisfactory one. Scarcity of the
choice to prime classes put there in
keenest favor of the month thus far
and from now on traders say the buy
ing interests are going to have a hard
time getting such steers at much lower
prices and if a higher range does not
materialize many will be disappointed.
The long looked for shortage of fin

itself felt in the trade. while assured

about strong markets for these classes.
In the medium and plain steer trade
there is still a big supply of Anglers
to reckon with. and these will be strong
competitors against the natives dur-
ing the next month or six weeks at

ing Of medium and half-fat natives. say
traders, to bolster prices up much from
