Stabbed.
Itwasoqjy about two weeks ago, that
about four o'clock in the morning in one of
our town saloons, that two parties had a
difficulty iu which one stabbed tho other
and at the recent term of our circuit court
he was indicted by the grand jury and the
case put over until the next term of court
when it will no doubt be tried; and mo mat
ter which way it goes the expense of no
small amount will have to be borne by the
taxpayers of B.jnton county. On last Sat
urday, after midnight, when all men should
have been quietly at home enjoying sWp
in another one of our town saloons, two
parties had some words and one stabbed the
other. What will be the result of this no
one is able to forteli. Not desiring to say
which parties were to blame in either of
these cases because we do not know; but in
justice to tho tax-payers of the county
t'ue3C saloons should certainly be required to
close up and suspend business after' early
evening. When they are prernitred to keep
open all night they furnish place for parties
to gather together and towards morning be
come drunk and the result is a stabbing or
shooting affray and before it is finally ad
justed betorc the courts it coats the tax
payers a thousand or two thousand dollars.
Tlie Juoiles Singers.
Over two hundred people were turned
away last evening for want of even stand

to witness the first performance of Howe's
Kentucky Jubilee Singers in Seattle. The
musical fir3t part was unusually interesting,
and gave general satisfaction. In fact,
nearly every separata song and act during
the entire evening was greeted with an en
core. Space will not permit U3 to specify
those particularly worthy of mention". If
hearty encores and loud applause are any
sign of the merit of a performance, the one
last night must be set down as good. An
entire change of program is announced for
this evcuing, which will be the last appear
ance of the company'in Seattle. Lovers of
a minstrel performance should not fail to go
and. hear the Kentucky Jubilee Singers.

Portland, Oregon, a distance of about 20 feet
breaking in his skull over his left ear, and
also breaking an arm. He wa3 taken to his
his home, No. 150 Madison street, where he
remanied unconcious until about 6 o'clock in
the evening, when he" died. Mr. Northrup
is an old resident whose name is familliar to
most of the older business men of Oregon
having coma here about 20 years ago, and
was highly respected for his moral worth
and excellence. He had not been in good
health for a year or more, but ws able to be
around and attend to business. At the
time of the accident he was engaged in ar
ranging goods on ahetujiig, and was stepping
backwards, and he did not know how near

bably struck his head against the side of the

Sljrraoaiaai Triumphant.
President Smith, of tho Salt Lako Mor
mons, said the pegple never before ware so
prosperous and numerous dispite the opposi

congress. President Taylor said the settle
ments were 1330 miles ia circumference and
wers extending. Apostle Thatcher said
that more than half the representations who
put aside principle and the rights of this
people to satisfy popular clamor were not re
elected. Cod was in the political wave that
3vept the country. E.'en Democrats could
not account for the turning of the tide in
their favor. The usual numbers of mission
aries were called and the edd authorities of
the church re-elected. Financial statisti
cal reports were not made, the president say
ing that it gave too much information to
outsiders. Mormons are unusually trium
phant and Gentiles correspondingly oppress
ed, but hope for a good influx of Gentiles
over the new railroad.

Asisrican Newspapers In 1833.
From the new edition of Messrs. Geo. P.
Rowell & Co's American Newspaper Direc
tory, which is now in press, it appears that
the newspapers and periodicals of all kinds
issued in the United States an! Territories
now reach the imposing total of 11,196.
This is aa increase of 5S5 in twelve months.
Taking the States one by one, the news
paper growth in sonio is very considerable.
The present total in New York State, for
instance, is 1,390 a gain ot S9 in the past
year. Hie increase in Pennsylvania is 48
the existing number being 943. Nebraska's
total grew from 175 to 201, and Illinois'
from 800 to 904. A year ago Massachusetts
had 430 papers; now the number is 438. Ia
Texas the new papers outnumbered the sus
pensions by 8, and Ohio now has 738 papers
instead of C92. The most remarkable change
has occurred in the territories, in which the
daily papers have grown from 43 to 63, and
the weeklies from 169 to 243 Dakota be
ing the c!R't area of activity. Ihe num
ber of monthlies throughout the country
grew from 976 to 1,024, while the dailies
leaped from 095 to 1,062. The figures given
above are exclusive.of Canada, which pos
sesses a total of 606. It is interesting to
note that the newly settled regions of the
Canadian North West are productive of
newspapers a3 well as of wheat, for the
number of journals issued in Manitoba was
nearly doubled during the year.

SMITH RADER At Albany. OregoD, in
the Episcopal church of that place, by
the Rev. Robt. L. Stephens, on Thursday
April 5tb, Mr. C. H. Smith of Portland,
to Miss Permela Rader of Linn County.
( Tsmrjeranca Union Service.
Last Sunday night the different churches
of our city, represented by their ministers,
met in the Episcopal church and held the
first of a series of temperance union services
to be held monthly at the places of worship
of the various denominations of oar city.
Mr. Nash, of the Episcopal church, was the
first speaker. He presented the subject in
a calm, clear, and logical manner and with
christian spirit. He presented St. Paul's
attitude with reference to "meats offered
to idols,' as the true position for the chris
tians to occupy towards the liquor business.
He quoted Paul and adopted him,, as his
own idea "that if to eat meats offered to
idols would cause his brother to ' offend he
wouldnot eat meats so long as the world
stands." He urged christians to avoid by
example doing that which would cause men
to err and lad"them ast.y.
Rev. Simpson of the Presbyterian church
was the next speaker. He did not look
to charts of the stomach and brain for les
sons on intemperance, neither did he rely on
demonstrations given by temperance
lectures on the coagulation of the white of
eggs by alcohol, but he only looked at the
samples of wrecked manhood that comes
under our daily observation. He called at
tention to the premature graves here, and
there, that have been mide in the last
seventeen years, as witness of the folly of a
life of intemperance.
Rev. Dunning, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, thsn roads some well timed and
seasoned remarks. He thought the Womans
Christian Temperance Union influences was
a great power for good ia promoting the
ueees3 of the temperance cause; he ex
horted the christians to lives of christian
temperance by precept and example.
Rev. Bell of the M. E. church south, wa3
the last speaker. He was glad of the co
operation of the churches on the vital ques
tion of temperance. Ha mentioned the tact
that the liquor dealera complained that the
temperance people bothered them and would
not let them alone. He said we had to
trouble them, it was for their'good; we did
not wish to kill them or burn their property,
but we wanted to save them because we
loved them, we did not love their business.
He recognized the fact that there was a
great uprising among the people on the
temperance question.

Boys and Girls Aid Bocietv.
Since May 1st forty six weeks ago the
Society of San Francisco has furnished 4, 110
fodgings and 10,397 meals to friendless boys
and girls; has distributed to these children
2, 155 pieces of clothing; has found employ
ment for 225 boy3 and girls in this city, and
placed in good homes or otherwise started
on more hopeful careers 267 children, of
whom upwards of a hundred and fifty were
taken from the courts or prisons. It is
wiser aad less expeasive to save children
than to punish criminals.
The-Boys and Girls Aid Society rescues
homeless, neglected or abused children; pro
vides for such in its own quarters until
suitable homes or employment are found for
them, and continues to look affer their
condition and treatment; maintains reading
rooms, libraries, baths, a gymnasium, sav
ings banks, sewing school, a class in music,
aad classe3 for instruction in other branches;
also, lectures, entertainments, and a tem
perance o-ganization. Lodgings are fur
nished at a nominal oost to working boys
and girls who have neither homes nor suit
able guardianship in the city. The work is
free from sectarianism and depends upon
voluntary contributions for its support.
OTJR NEEDS:
Money. Ten months ago the Aid Societj'
undertook to enlarge its sphere to enter
upon the great work on a scale commensu
rate with the extent and importance of the
field. It is a peculiar work, seeking and
achieving ress'ts as priceless in value to
society as to the children it benefits. Our
expenses have increased considerably, aad
we are "iiviiiii from hand to mouth." Be
sides meeting ourrent expenses, we are try
ing to gather a fund on tho interest of which
we can depend for our ordinary needs. Will
you not help the Boys and Girls Aid Society
with a contribution for current expenses or
for the permanent fund ?
Homes and employment for children.
We have always on hand children for adop
tion, and many needing employment, or
homes without legal adoption.
Wearing apparel for children of both
sexes and all ages.
' 'Corresponding members" ladies and
gentlemen in every town and district to
whom we can look for information in re
gard to applicants for children, and through
whom boys and girls placed out ia their
vicinity, or other children in distress, may
appeal to us. We invite correspondence
with any lady or gentleman who will help
us in thte way.
Send for our Annual Report. On its last
pages you will find "specimen cases" worth
your reading. V

Kendali'e Spavin Cure.
H.iuilton, Ho., June 14th.
B.J. Kksdall &Co. , Gents : This is to certify
that I have used Kendall's Spavin Care and hav
found it to ba all it is recommended to be and iat
fact more too; I have removed by wing the above t
Callous, Hone Spavins, Kin;-botiest Splints, and can
cheerfully testify and. recommend it to be the best'
tiling for any bony substance I hare ever used and t
have tried many as 1 have made that my study tot
years.
Respectfully vours,
P. V. CRIST.
Onconta, New York, Jan. 9th,
Early la-st summer Messrs. B. J. Kendall & Co., of
Enosburgh Falls, Vt., made a contract with the pub
lishers of the Press for a half column advertisement
for one year setting1 forth the merits of Kendall's
Spavin Cure. At the same time we secured from the
firm a quantity of books, entitled Dr. Kendall'
Treatise on the horse and his Diseases, which we ar
giving to advance paying subseribera to the Frets a
a premium.
About the time the advertisement first appeared
in tills paper Sir. P. G. Scliermerhorn, who resides
near Colliers had a spavined horse. He read the ad
vertisement and concluded to test the efficacy of tho
remedy, although bis friends laughed at his cred
ulity. He bought a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure)
and commenced using it on the horse in accordance
vitli the direction-, aud he informed us th-s week
that it eft ec ted such a complete cure that an expert
horseman, who examined theanimiU recently could)
find no trace of the spavin or the place where it had)
been located. Mr. Scliermerhorn has since secured a
copy of Kendall's Treatise on the Horse and his Dis
eases, waivh ne prizes verv nigniy ana wouia oe
loth to part with at any price, provided he could
not obtain another copy. So much for advertising"
reliable articles.

Fremont, Ohio, Jn. 25th.
1r. B. J. Kendall & Co. , Genu : I think it my
duty to render you my than!;3 for benefits and profits)
which I hav-e derived from your invaluable and far
famed Spavin Cure. My cousin and 1 had a valuable
st.iUion, worth SiOOO which hed a very bad spavin
and was pronounced by four eminent veterinary
surgeons, beyond any cure, aud that the horse was
done for ever. As a last resort I advised my cousin
to try a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure. It had a
magical effect, the third bottle cured it and the
horse is as well as ever. Dr. Dick of Edinburgh, the
eminent veterinary snrjyeon was an uncle of mine,
and I take great interest in assisting his profession
Yours truly, -:

ON HUMAN FLESH.
West Enosbur,rh, Vt.. Feb. 15th, 1881.
Dr. D. J. Kbkdall & Co., Gents : Several month
ago I injurod my iinue joint which caused an en
largement to grow the stee of a large walnut and
caused me very severe pain all the time for four or
five weeka, when i began to use Kendall's Spavin
Cure with the most satisfactory results. It has en
tirely removed the enlargement and stopped the
lameness and pain. I have long known It to be ex
cellent for horses but now I know it to be the bee
liniment for human flesh that I am acquainted with.
Yours truly,
T. P. LiWRSncm.
Kendall's Spavin Cure

fcHator, yet jt is penetrating and powerful to react

calous, sprains, swellings ?.nd any lameness and en
largements of the joints or limbs, or for rheumatism
in man and for any purpose for which a liniment ief
used for man or beast. It is now known to be the
best liniment for man ever used, acting mild and
yet certain in its effects.
Send aadres3 for Illustrated Circular -which
