Tokens oK Respect.
The following resolutions on the death
of Mrs. C. E. Bunnell were passed by
the W. C. T. U :
Whereas, Since last we sat together
in our accustomed place of meeting, one
of our number has gone to rest in the
arms of Him whom she had long loved
and feared, therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of Sister
C. E. Bunnell, the members of this
union have lost and do hereby express i
their sense of having lost a well beloved
sister and fellow worker, a friend whose
sympathy and helpfulness were unfail
ing, whose character "allured to brighter
worlds and led the way." She. has well
served her generation.
Retoved, That while our hearts are
heavy as we realize that we shall see our
sister here no more, we tender our truest
sympathies to her family, yet we rejoice
in the legacy of her long and useful life
and rejoice in the thought and are
comforted in knowing that she has a
building of God, a house' not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens.
They Hear Testimony.
The United States supreme' court re
cently said : "By general concurrence
of opinion of every civilized and christian
community, there are few sources of
crime and misery to society equal to the
saloons."
Add to this the testimony of Chief
Justice Coleredge, of England. W. E.
Gladstone, Cardinal Manning and Can
on Farran.
Dr. Howard Croslyjasserted that in 25
years experience among the tenement
house class of New York City, he found
hot one case of destitution that could not
be traced to drink.
General Booth, in his "Darkest Eng
land" says : The drink habit lies at the
root of all trouble. Nine tenths of our
poverty, squalor, vice and crime spring
from this poisonous tap-root.
'Money For Ie Bre&chln.'
It was election day. A minister of the
gospel ( ?) and a German brewer met at
the jmjUs.
Brewer. Veil, minister, I suppose you
votes mit dein -venatics, vot tiuks peer
vas awful boison !
Minister. Oh, no! I guess not. . I
vote as you do.
B. Vot! I votes for peer and men
who helps me in my peesness. Let me
see de dieket. Veil, now, ish not dat
gude? Item breach and bray all de dime
against mine peesness, but ven you
comes to vote, you vote shust like me
and all de saloon mens. Does you know
dat ven dem viinens was round to get
moneys, I vas shust so mat ; I geifs no
moneys to de man dat interfeers mit
mine peesness, but now I zees you did
not mean anytings by de breaching and
de braying. " You do it shust to blease
those vimens and fools vot sav me shall
make no more ieer. Veil, shust as long
as you votes right you may breach and
bray, cause dem dat drink mine peer no

if you no breach. Here, I now geifs you
ten dollars, and I geifs you de si me every
year shust so long as you votes mit me.
M. Oh, no ! I could not take that.
It would be selling my vote which
would not be right, you know.
B. ' Oh, veil ; I zees. I no geifs you
de moneys for de vote, but for de breach
in' and de brayin', ven you means
nothing by it. Now geif me yoor dicket

put them in de pox and I tells de beples
you votes shust like me ; and I votes like
you ; and de next dime dem vimens come
round I geifs lots of moneys for de breach

Robert .1. Hurdett on Continental Tem
perance. If there is one passage in the letters of
American travelers in Europe more
tiresome than another it is this: ."Dur
ing our six weeks' stay in Paris we did
not see a single drunken person." Then
they .travel through Switzerland, Ger
many, Austria, Italy and Spain, and all
France, and still; they; do not see a
drunken person. -, They . attribute the
sobriety of the people to the tact that
everybody drinks. wine and; beer.; drink'
it an tne time ana lots .oi.ii.wiin no
hieh license and prohibition nonsense to
bother them; consequently tney never
get drunk. Well, now, tne only jnier
enceonecan draw' from - these remark
able letters is . either that the writers
themselves were' lind ;. drunk all the
timethev were-in Paris, or. the Parisian
drunkard is a most, successful maer,
Because while our travelers last1 year did
hot see a single instance of drunkenness
in Paris, the official -police records state
that the police of Paris saw arid arrested
on an average. 150 people every aav ue-
tween January 1 and. April 3p.f for.-being
drunk on the streets. 'So many drunk
ards are not arrested in .New : .York, .and
yet these travelers of ours always con-
trast the sobriety ot .Europe with the ex-
cesses of America. . . It is iust.as .well to
bear in mind , the. official' report-, while
reading these letters; and perhaps if the
.writers, drank iles(f and .thought, more
thev- .would, remember .that official re
turns will not always agree with .letters
from the guide-book. .

Church Election.
The Congregational church, of this
city held its annual parish meeting last
night. There were present 54 persons
and the meeting was an enthusiastic and
pleasant one. The deacons elected were :
S. L. Brooks, E. P. Roberts, R. A. Ros
coe and A. R. Thompson, while R. A.
Roscoe was chosen trustee. Rev. W. C
Curtis was unanimously given a call as
permanent pastor, which is a handsome
tribute to a worthy and accomplished
gentleman". The church has been more
prosperous the past year than any since
its organization and "all feel that it is
because both members and pastor have
been working together for the cause of
Christ. The deacons elected are all
representative men and will be a power
for good during the coming year.
Deacons Brooks and. Roberts have held
these same positions for many years and
have seen the church grow from a small
and struggling one to a large, flourishing
and popular congregation with the finest
edifice in the city, and with every indi
cation that it will double its membership
within the next twelve months. To
these two men and their estimable wives
much of the present prosperity is due.
A thank offering of $162.50 was taken up
at the conclusion of the election.
' A la Italians.
Haight the resturant man has got
fairly even with the party that serena
ded him the other night with hand or
gans. Taking a fancy to the organ
carried by E. Jacobsen, Charley inno
cently asked permission to turn the
crank. When he got possession of it he
ran off and left Earnest minus a hand
organ. . Last night Charley got Bingo on
a chain and persuading Mrs. Haight to
lead the dog he started east from the
resturant vigorously turning the crank
organ. At Kuch's corner the proces
sion stopped long enough to enter
tain the county treasurer with a
tune, to which he responded by
putting a nickle in Charley's hat.
From there they moved to the front of
Jacobsen's store where Charley leaned
up against a post and played for all that
was out. A good natured crowd offered
him thirty cents if he would stop dis
turbing the peace of the town, which
Charley promptly promised to do and
left thirty cents richer than when he
started out. It is rumored Charley is
going to start a bank with the money.

Tbe Qneen'i Daughters as Cooka.
The queen's,daughters, in addition to
being excellent needlewomen, are also
good cooks. When . they were children
they had a little kitchen of their own at
Osborne, where they concocted all kinds
of dishes, sweets being naturally the
favorites. Here they converted into jam
the fruit out of their own gardens, and
turned out many a savory dish for the
delectation of their brothers, all of whom
had as excellent appetites as generally
appertain to boys. At least one of the
princesses still continues to cook an
occasional li ttle dish, and has been heard
to say that she would have made an ex
cellent chef. London Tit-Bits. " ' "'
