LOWELL JOURNAL BY J A3. W. HINE.

E D I T O R I A L COMMENT.

—His name is Jones—Jones of Bing-hamton. yVhen Mr. Flower declined to accept the nomination for Lt. Governor on the N. Y. democratic state ticket, the committee offered the place to Gen. SIo-cum who made haste to inform the committee that he could not consent to carry the burden. Then the committee found Jones, he being an easy man to And almost anywhere, and Jones ac-cepted. Jones is a manufacturer of scales and if he be weighed and found wanting hell feel like going out of the business. It is now Hill and Jones vs. Davenport and Carr. By the way, that Carr has never yet been ditched nor telescoped.

—LUlie Devereux Blake, president of the N. Y. woman suffrage association, in her address to the women of New York, proclaims the right of women to vote, claiming that they have the right of suffrage' granted by the fundmental law of the land. She urges the women of New York to come out to the polls in November and exercise that right. If Lillie has made a new" discovery, and the "find" is what she says it is, it would seem that further agitation of the suffrage question is unnecessary.

—The N. Y. Evening Post, which was one of Cleveland's moat ardent support-era last fall, has at last lifted up its voice in condemnation of the President on ac-count of his having made so many dis-reputable appointments. The Post say8

"the time has come for reformers to confem that they have been deceived." It also says much more, all of which goes to uhow that President Cleveland can no longer slide down the banister of the Post's moet inner heart.

—The removal of Capt. Bacon as chief weigher in the New York CUB' om house and the appointment of Geo. H. Sterling as Bacon's succer HOT, have caused the mugwumps to ' buck" in the saddle. All admit that Bacon was a model offic-ial and. the civil service reformers rate Sterling as one of the lowest and most corrupt of politicans. Evidently the removal of the Custom House Bacon will make the President hustle around pretty lively to save his.

—"Every man on the Ohio Republic m State ticket was a Union soldier while not a single Union soldier is ou the Ohio Democratic state ticket." So says the Detroit Poet. Why the Post seeks to maim the Republican party by referring to this fact is not generally understood. The Republicans of Ohio may win, though, ia spite of these malicious attacks.

—We are waiting patiently for con-gress to assemble again. We want to see how the dominant party in the lower house the tariff bull by the horns this time. Well bet two to one that the aforesaid dominant party will climb up on the hay mow, or scoot around behind the barn, the first time that bull "hel-lers." '

—Rowell P. Flower, he

was nominated for the offlce of Lt. Governor by the N. Y. democrats. He declined to accept. He wanted the first place on the ticket and when they offer-ed him the second place ho was just out of soft answers which turn away wrath.

—Senator John Sherman says: " I will never acquiesce in the overthrow of constitutional rights by force and vio-lence." This is what some folks call waving the bloody shirt. I t looks to us like waving the Old Flag; which to some is more offensive than the b. s.

—Ira Davenport is the name of New-York's next governor, provided he gets votes enough. Gov. Hill is the demo-cratic nominee and he is depending largely on such reformers as attend di-vine service with rigid regularity in Tamnuiny Hall.

—We don't presume there is money enough in the Fifth Congressional Dis-trict to induce Congressman Comstock to except a renomination next fall. And then, too, we don't presume any-body will offer him a cent to induce him.

—"Speaking of boycotting says a Lowell mother, " I think the girls ought to be ashamed of themselves. It don't look well to see the girls go around catching the boys."

—The Governor's salary in New York State is $10,000 a year. They don't ask a man to live in Albany a whole year for nothing.

—By the death of Goldsmith Maid we are again reminded of fleeting time.

The J O U R N A L press room now has a double floor, with straight Havana saw-dust filler between, to deprive the oc-cupants below of the privilege of listen-ing to the hum of industry.

For sometime Dr. Elsworth has had parties boring for water on his hill with % fair prospect of oblaining a good water supply. We certainly hope the experiment will prove a success.

The Grand Haven Herald desires on a postal card the name and address of each resident now living in Michigan, who removed into this then territory previous to May 14,1820. Exchanges and other papers please copy. All for historical inteie&s

The suit by Jonas H. Ilowe against the Detroit Free Press for $25,000 was de-cided by the jury .returning a verdict for six cents in favor of the plaintiff. Mr. Rowe should now take the money

and start an opposition paper with it, or, which is far better, invest it in U. S. Bonds.

The J O U R N A L lias received many nice-ly printed invitations to county fairs but none more artistic than that printed by J. K. Fairchild for the Alcona Co. Agri-cultural Society. Joseph is a graduate of this oflice and he's got the art preserva-tive right by the ear.

The chancery suit. Rice vs. Assignees of N. P. Husted was not closed last week and had to go over for a few days if not longer. The general verdict already rendered by our citizens, who under-stood the situation, is that the parties prosecuting are engaged in pretty mean business.

Rumor has it that John S. Hooker re-turned from Gainesville, Ga. to Lowell to secure the j)ontolfice here. Whether rumor is correct or not the J O U R N A L is not authorized to say. One thing we can say without fear of contradiction. There isn't postofllce enough here to ac-commodate more than one postmaster at one time.

In the Kent Circuit Court Edwin R. Craw and wife of Lowell recently filed a bill for partition against Christina Man-gold and her children, and Louisa Man-gold and her children of Grand Rapids. The hill asks for the division of a cer-tain strip of land on the West Side near Bridge street, on the river, in which all are part owners.

Train No. 10, night Express, leaves Grand Haven at 7:15 p. m., instead of 7 p, m. as previously, arriving at Detroit at 5:20 a. m.. making connections there with the Great Western division. Atlantic express, for the east, leaving Detroit at 6::i!3 a. m. No connection will Ik? made at Durand with the C. & G. T. Limited express, as heretofore,

Dudley O, Watson of Coopersville getii the Custom house at Grand Haven. This is another black eye for congress-man Comstock who had recommended another man for that place. And now here is Waters of the Grand Rapids Leader watching and waiting for his grist. Possibly the grain he took to the mill won't grind but he thinks it will.

On Tuesday Sept 29 President Cleve-land appointed James Blair postmaster at Grand Rapids, vice H. N. Moore, sus-pended. Capt. Moore has been a very popular official, and under his admin-istration the postoffice has been admir-ably managed. But ho had to go and Mr. Blair, one of the best democrats in the city, is a worthy successor. "To the victors belong the spoils."

George McConnell of Langston, aged 13 years, who cafne here a few days since to visit the family of George Bceh-ler, was taken down with diphtheria soon after his arrival. His parents were summoned and all that could be done was done for the boy until Wednesday morning when he died. No other cases reported at present and as every precau-tion has been used it is hoped there wi 11 lie no more of it here. Later: since the above was put in type Miss Anna Beehler has been taken ill and her case is pronounced diphtheria in a mild form. As young McConnell was visiting at Beehler's when he was pros-trated with the disease of course the family were exposed. It is hoped and expected that Anna will soon recover and that no further cases will appear.

The State Board of Correction and Charities request the J O U R N A L to an-nounce to the reverend clergy that the National Prison Association will hold its annual meeting in Detroit, commencing Oct. 17, and continuing four days. The Board hope that all the clergy will at-tend and also request that the Sunday preceding or following the meeting be made a "Prison Sunday", discourses to be delivered "in the interest of prison management and refonn in their wide bearings."

State Mustering officer F. D. Eddy of the Sons of Veterans has designed a sword for that order, which is meeting with approval all over the U. S. The design consists of the S. V. coat of arms on guard of hilt. Reverse of blade has sailor, S. V. badge, letters "F. C. & L." on shield, engraved thereon. The ob-verse—soldier, vignette of U. S. Grant, letters S. V. and figures 1861—05 on shield. The design has been adopted and the sword is manufactured by the Ames Sword Co. of Chicopee, Mass.

Mrs, J . W. Hino's class in modem literature made her a present of a very handsome ornamental water set at the class meeting last Saturday. The young ladies also took along suspicious looking baskets, Ac. and after the literary feast was over they spread another kind of feast which was duly recorded as a high testimonial to the culinary skill of the class. It would be ungrateful in Mrs. H. not to l)e very grateful and she hasn't the slightest inclination to lie ungrate-ful. She is proud of her class and has reason to be.

Dr. Hess, the specialist of Grand Rap ids, visited our place again last week and while hero his time was fully taken up attending the many patients who called upon him many of whom caino miles to see him. Evidently he is doing a vast amount of good for suffering humanity and to his credit. He accepts, treats and permanently cures cases which have been abandoned by different physicians and given up to die an ig-nominious death or at the mercy of an all wise providence. So wo can but say

that his success in the treatment of all chronic diseases, especially cancer, stom-ach and Lung troubles, must be without a parallel. He will l)e here again Mon-day, Oct 5th. at the Davis House.

On one section near Marlscala, in the State of Guanajuata, two kilometers of the track were washed away to a depth of ten feet An entire train fell Into one washed-cat place, but without injury to the cars or peo-ple on board. Several hundred cars have been delayed, and freight has been badly blocked. E. P. Whiting, of the construction force, had his hand injured, but this is the only accident reported. Six miles of the track at Calera is said to be under water.

Bad washouts on the Vera Cruz Railway are reported. One at Afram, In Pulque County, Is very serious. No mall tralu has arrived yet over the Central Railroad, and the passengers were reported as being fed at interior points.

MoimiEAL, Can., Sept 28.—Small-pox etill continues to rage In this city, without the slightest abatement There were 159 cases reported yesterday and 42 deaths.

A serious affray took place yesterday morning between a crowd of French-Ca-nadians and the sanitary police. The offi-cials were armed with an order from the Provincial Board ordering the removal of twenty-two cases from a tenement house at the corner of Gasford and S t Louis streets. Four sanitary pollca went tore-move the patients to the hospital, but the occupants of the premises refused to per-mit them to be taken away. The officers sent for four more men, but the whole squad was driven from the premises. The Central Police Station was telephoned, and ten armed officers were sent down. The crowd dispersed and the house was cleared of its occupants, the inmates being sent to the hosoltai. The crowd outside jeered and hooted .the officers, and it was with the utmost difficulty that the work of removal could be accomplished.

AH hopes of a carnival for 1885-6 have been abandoned. The entire populace Is frenzied with fear at the reigning epidemic. One of the editors of the Daily Timet was taken with small-pox yesterday. The entire editorial staff of the paper, residing In the same boose, have been shut up.

School Lands in Texas Drying Up and Cat-t le in Danger ot Starvation.

• D A L L A S , T e x . , BepL 28 .—Cont inued

trouble Is anticipated between Texas cat-tle drivers and citizens of New Mexico. The former assert that the qnanntine, which affects 100,000 cattle, is the work of a New Mexican syndicate to force the sal* of Texas cattle at half their valne, as the only way to escape starvation.

Several conflicts, Involving the loss of six lives, have taken place within the last two weeks in the Delaware, Black, Little an Big Cimarron regions of New Mexico, none of which have found publicity in the papers. An appeal will be made to the Federal Goverument by the stockmen and bona fide applicants for homesteads against tlie lawless action of the New Mexican or-ganization, an invesMgatlon of whose title will be demanded. * The school lauds of Texas, on which a large number of cattle graze, are entirely barren of verdure, and WiU be worthless for years to come.

Montreal t h e Scene of a Serious Antl-Vae-d n a t i o n Riot—A H o w l i n g Mob of French-Canadlans Wreck Tublle Ba l ld lngs and Fire Besldences—The Author i t ies P o w -erless.

MONTBEAL, Can., Sept 29.—Compulsory vaccination was berun here yesterday. The idea of stringent measures being employed has exasperated the French population at the east end of the city. Yesterday morn-ing there was a riot at the branch health office in that district A small-pox placard had been posted next door, and five or six hundred French-Canadlausgatliered around It hooting, yelling and threatening the health officers. The placard was torn down and trodden under foot and the mob stoned the office, breaking the windows. The police were sent for and subdued the crowd. A reporter traversed tho whole of the worst Infected districts yesterday morn-ing. Not a single warning placard could be seen, all having been turn down by the people as soon as posted. It looks as If the law could only be carried out by the aid of military, and there Ls some t-Uk of apply-ing for soldiers.

The number of cases In the city Is esti-mated at 4,000, and It Is commonly believed that Montreal Is doomed. The authorities are helpless. Deaths are occurring at the rate of 300 a week, and not a doctor has been hired by the corporation to give med-ical aid to the poor.

One of the most disgraceful riots known In the city occurred last evening about six o'clock. Nine hundred or one-thousand French-Canadians gathered at 422 S t Cath-Ino streets, where the branch health office for the east end of tho city Is situated, and broke In the win-dows, tore down the doors, smashed the counter, and generally demoralized the place. After completing the ruin of the building the mob, now greatly augmented in numbers, proceeded to the drug-store of Berldon Brothers, af the corner of S t Denis and S t Catherine streets, which they mis-took for the store of Alderman Gray, the medical health officer. In twenty minutes the ruin of this store was complete. Win-dows were smashed . :id doors destroyed, counters inside were ruined, and the furni-ture was broken.

The mob then proceeded to the City Hall, where they evidently Intended mischief, from expressions uttered: "Down with the Council!" "Kill the vaccinators!" "Burn the town!" "Hang the English!" were heard on every hand Arriving at the City Hail the crowd began a furious onslaught on the public buildings. The Central Po-lice Station is here located, but few police-men were present, the most being at tha east end of the town, where a riot had been anticipated. Stones were thrown, and soon every window lu the spa-clous structure was broken. Revolvers were drawn and some twenty shots were fired, when the police appeared, they at once re-turning the fire. The mob numbered now several thousand. The entire police force of the city was summoned to the scene, and after a hard fight dispersed the mob, who went up tho street vowing vengeance on "the d——d English paper which favored vaccination." The officers afterward sur-rouudod the building and prepared to de-fend It

The Mayor, in the meantime, had been sent for, and was busy detailing special po-licemen to protect the lives and property of citizens. The crowd now left the vicinity of the city hall and proceeded down S t James street to Victoria Square, where tho Daily Herald is situated. Here some V 000 or 2,500 roughs had gathered, and lu a twinkling the windows of the establishment were smashed lu with stones and clubs. The volley was returned by the pressmen. A squad of fifty police, under Chief Para-dise, dispersed the raiders.

Subsequently they came together again and went to Alderman Grenler's house. The alderman has always been a firm sup-porter of the vaccination theory. The mob demolished everything about the premises whloh was breakable. Then they went to Dr. LaChappelle's house. He Is a member of the Provincial Board of Health. They broke his windows and repeated their riot-ous acts at the house of LaBerge, medical health officer, and Dr. Larocks, public vao-cinator. The wludows were smashed and the premises despoiled.

Colonel Stephenson's field battery has been ordered under arms, and has orders ' clear the streets of the populace at any cost of life. It is reported that two men were killed among the crowd in the fight which occurred at the city lialL At one o'cloek this morning the east end Is In a perfect frenzy of excitement The 2,000 people as-sembled there declare that they will die rather than be vaccinated, and will not sub-mit to "the English dogs." Bloodshed is considered unavoidable, unless they dis-perse at once, which Is hardly possible.

The EngllshHipeaklng community say this is but tho beginning of a war of races, which they deplore. The police are totally incapable of suppressing the trouble, and when the end will bono one can Judge. The mob Is led by fanatics, many of whom are members of tho City Council, who have ut-tered the most incendiary threats to burn the city aud shout all who favor vaccination being made compulsory. Royal engineers are now ready to start for the eastern wards of the city, under Colonel Denny, with in-structions from the Minister of Militia to disperse the rioters there at whatever cost

The rioters set fire to a quantity of shav-ings they hea|)ed against the dwolllug of D. La Porte, in the east end. The fire, however, was coon extlugulshed by the fire biigade.

A gentleman of the Cltlzeu's Committee yesterday claimed that there were at least

4,000 cases of small-pox In the city. The opening of the Theater Royal has been In-definitely postponed on account of the epi-demic. At hl^h mass Sunday in the Roman Catholic Cathedral Reverend Father Emard read the papal decree, which Is considered as applying to the epidemic In Moutreal, and which was Issued by his Holiness, Pope Leo XHL, under date of the 20th of August last The decree alludes to the ravages of epidemics and plagues among the faithful throughout the world last year, and Impresses upon Roman Catholics the efficiency of prayer In crushing these regretable calamities.

Swarms of Grasshoppers.

Ex. PASO, Tex., Sept 29 .—News from the Interior of Mexico, particularly that portion of the country ASP king the Mexi-can Central Road in the State of Chlhna-hua, is to the elTect that great swarms of grasshoppers have Invaded the country from the United States, and are play-ing havoc with the crops. The sir is full of them, and the sky obscured by myriads of t>>e invaders, and the people know not what to do to save their fields, orchards aud vineyards. The worst rav-ages appear to be near Zacetecas and Sole-dad. The farmer and peon dosses have organized, and are trying to frighten and destroy the hoppers by shooting into them with shot-guns as they fly In swarms through the air.

Prosperity In Texas—News of Good Crops Cause* Increased Immigra t ion .

DALLAS Tex., Sept 29 .—The news of the good crops in Texas is spreading through the States, and a marked Immlgra-tlon is the result Every incoming train brings them. This season's splendid crops have done more to encourage immigration than all the advertisements and talk com-bined. The class that now seek homes and investment hi Texas are better than hereto-fore. They are more IntelllKeut better fired in life, and will make good citizens. The tide appears to prefer the northwestern counties.

Some years ago one of Mr. L n j j m ' s fans laborers braised his leg. Owing to the tad state of his blood, an ugly icrofalotu swelling or lamp appeared on the Injnred limb. Hor-rible itching of the skin, with buralng and darting pains through the lamp,, made life almost intolsrable. The leg became eaor-monsly enlarged, and ranalng oleetS formed, discharging groat qnantitisi of extremely offensive matter. No treatment was of aay avail antil the man, by Mr. LXLAJTS'S dlreo-

The bang has now entirely g o e s oat at fashion, and the most fashionably arrayod women draw their hair straight back front their foreheads and pile i t in a n unpiwtentloqs knot on the t o p of the bead. I t is a n ex-tremely trying fashion, and the girts who have knobby foreheads and beads oaved in behind revolt against i t They will all fall in line after a while, though, and the bang which so long sprawled down over the eyes will disappear, to be revived again a hun-dred years or less hence.

I was looking over a bound copy of Har-per's Monthly twenty-l ive or thirty years old, a few days ago, whOe m m a g i n g among some old books, and I WM particularly struck by the elaborate ooiffure of the women in various pictures, including a lot of sketches from London Punch. The fashln^Kfc crnas then was over the chignon. I wonder bow long i t will be before these elaborate n o d e s of dressing the hair will be revived again. Waterfalls , switches and like for increaoing the apparent yield ef hair were fashionable until a f e w years ago, and I think I have seen women with powdered hair piled up to an Immense height on the top ot their heads sitting in boxes at the academy as late as 1675. The era of p l a i n n . ^ mnM. modesty hai now reached i ts he ight There will be a movement the other wmj before long;

T h e Curiae of a W o m u n .

"If you want to hear a strange story,'* said a gentleman to a reporter of the Alta the other day, in Golden Gate Park, "engage that gray-haired man in con-versation and get him to tell you his history. It will repay you foryour time; and he indicated a prematurely aged man with a sad face, in the sun on ono of the bent-lies of the park. The report-er needed no second invitation, and was soon seated hy the man with the strange history.

" I am told," said the seeker after facts, " that you have a life story strange in the extreme, and that you are not averse to relating it."

The eyes of the man were turned on the speaker a moment, and folding his white hands in his lap, he said:

•'Yes, it is a strange story. I am a murderer and reformed gambler; but you need not shrink so from me, for the murder was not intentional. Ten years ago I owned the largest and most popu-lar gambling parlors in the city of Chi-cago. and on Saturday nights I dealt out my faro game, in Which business, of course, I made a great deal of money. Many unpleasant incidents grew out of my business, hut I always excused it on tho ground that man did not have to play games any more than they were obliged to drink poison. I finally got to noticing and expecting one man in particular, who always came when it was my night to deal. At first he play-ed "boldly, and as a consequence lost heavily; but as he grew more familiar with the game he played carefully, and acted as though life depended on his winning, which, in fact, was the case, as afterward proved. I got acquainted with him, addressing him as Brown, but knowing that was not his true name. I think he followed the game for months winning a litte sometimes, but generally losing heavily. At last he came one night, and I saw by his Hushed face that he had Wen drinking, although he look-ed apparently cool. He sat down to the table, drew out a small roll of money, and laying it down before him, said:

"There is in that little pile my fortune my honor, and my life. I either win all or lose all this night. Begin yourgame, I am ready.'

"Others joined in at first and played for awhile, but finally withdrew from the game and watched the strange young man at my right. He played to win, but fate was uguiimt him, for he lost, won. aud lost again, nnd finally, after two hours of playing, evidently in the most fearful suspense, ho lost his last dollar. Loaning back in his chair with compressed lips, and face blanched to a deathly whiteness, he looked me in the eye a moment, and rising, said;

"My money, honor, and happino. s have gone over that table, never to re turn. 1 said my life would go with them, and it shaH Tell my wife I had gone too far to return.' Before we could prevent it he put a derringer to his

breast and shot himself through tho heart, falling upon the table that had boon his ruin and death.

"His wife came. awTul in tho majesty c f h o r grief, and after satisfying herself that her husband was dead, she asked. •Where is the keeper of this dreadful place?" I was pointed out to her, and striding up to me. so that her finger al-most touched my pallid face; she ex-claimed in tones that are ringing in my oars yet: 'Oh you soulless wretch, with heart of stone! You havo lured my hus-band from me, sent him to perdition, widowed me. and orphaned my children. You are his murderer and may God's curse rest upon you etemallyl" And with a wild scream, •Ob. my husbandl my children!" she foil fainting on tho lifeless body of her husband.

"1 lingered for weeks in a brain fev.-r. that curse seeming lo be the burden of my mind. On my recovery 1 burned the fixtures of my don and closed tho place, and have devoted the most of my time to travel, with tho hope of escaping that woman's just curse, but I can't. 1 believe it is on me forever, and 1 feel that 1 was the man's murderer. 1 am rich, and my first attempt was to get the dead man's wifo to accept an an-nuity from me, hut she refused all aid and trieil to supinu-t herself by her own labor. I relieved my mind to some ox-tent. however, by settling a certain sum on her and her children, which passes through her father's hands, and ostensi-bly comes directly from him. Her children are receiving a fine education by this moans, and my will, safety lock-ed in her father's ottice, bequeaths to her and her children my entire wealth, some sioo.OOO. My lifo," he continued, "is devoted largely to visiting gambling dens, where I meet young men who aro on the highway to hell, and warn them of their danger. Thanks be to God. I have succeeded in many cases in saving them; and now, young man remember this story, and iet it always stand up as a white specter between you and the gambling table. See to it that the poison does not enter your veins;" and ho pull-ed his hat over his moistened eyes and

strode silently away.—C/iwrc/j and Home.

Gov. C o l q u i t t , of C.eorgla ,

"1 do not think that 1 am a fanatic." said Governor Colquitt, " I am not a propagandist of any particular species of morals; not at all: but 1 never call around me my little family and look in to their bright, undimmed eyes that 1 do not ask myself. 'What is lo be the future of this child, this daughter, this sweet, pure gem? Will it be dark? What is to become of her?" It may lie that through tho arts and graces of some young man. some fashionable young man, some young man who thinks it is the very highest evidence of his manhood, of his being a gentleman, that ho can drink and talk saucily to a woman—she may be won by some such character as that.

"Can 1 trace in tho future such a life for her? for her who was so near to us, who was so tender, who was so delicate— her who nestled right into our hearts?

" I look into my son's face—my only son. and I say to myself: 'What is to be the destiny of the boy that bears my name? I would rather follow him to the grave with a broken heart this night, than to fee! that a life of sobriety, virtue and usefulness was to be destroyed lo-cause of the temptations of the dramshop.

Bon H A Y L O R , the train-engineer who stuck to his post in tho recent accident on the Indiana, Bloomington & West-ern Railroad, fo ravo the lives of the passengers, died at Springfield, O., a fow nights ago from his injuries.

IN a recent speech at Warrington, Eng., Joseph Chamberlain said that the Radical programme contemplated, among other things, a moderate scheme of domestic government for Ireland, land reform, and a revision of the taxation and game laws.

aud wero opposed to Mr. Parnell's home-rulo policy, which, if adopted, would meau the destruction of the British Empire.

A P A T E N T was recently issued for an apparatus to ru-i sewing-machines. The inventors have succeoded in con-td meting an arrangement which is a reliable substitute for foot-power, and which does away with tho laborious and fatiguing treadle. Tho motive power is ordinary clock-springs, ar-ranged so as to run the motor with any speed desired by simply bearing the foot on a rest A few moments wind-ing up suffices to store enough power iu the motor to run a sewing-machine all tlay.

D U R I N G the services at Northfield, Mass., tho other Sunday, Mr. Moody said that tho people were not making effort enough to get their neighbors to roino to church. "Why don't you bring somebody iu your big wagon?" said he, addressing ono well-to-do farmer by name. "Because my wagon is always filled from my own house," was the re-ply. Mr. Moody at once said that he must have a wagon, one way or another, adding that ho wanted to invest $25 in one himself, calling for other contribu-tions.
