PlTTSBHRG, Pa., June 30. A prize fight with hard'gloves for 8200 n side and the gate receipts took place near Shousetown, Pa., twenty-five- miles west of this city at daybreak this morning. The contestants were Elmer Grant of Beaver Falls, and Frederick Wise of Xew Brighton, both men of considerable pugilistic fame. One Tound was fought lasting 45 seconds, dur ing which Grant knocked "Wise down seven times, the last time knocking him insensi ble. A younger brother of "Wise then jumped into the ring and with an axe dealt Grant a blow on the back with the blunt end. The blow was evidently aimed at the head but fortun ately fell wide of tbe mark. Before he could bo caught young Wise had jumped over the ropes again and with a revolver in one hand and an axe in the other he ran down the hill defying anyone to follow him. Grant was stunned for a moment by tile blow but was not seriously hurt. The referee decided the fight a draw, much to the dissatisfaction of the Grant adherents, and they threatened to mob him but he got away safely and the crowd soon dis persed. The aifair has been reported to the police and arrests may follow. Ayer's Sarsaparilla contains Iodide of Potasium and Iron, and vegetable blood purifiers. SHOT HER FATHER. MlLWAUKEE.Wis., June 30. John Good rich, aged ."X5 years, was shot and fatally wounded by his daughter Lizzie, aged 'JO, at the family home, just outside the west ern limits of the city, last night. The girl .says her fathor came home drunk and be gan flourishing a revolver, and that in a struggle to get possession of the weapon he was shot. The location of the wound, which is in the back just above the hips is not favorable to her story and the young woman was placed under arrest.

Charles Decker died yesterday without regaining con- Hciousness sulliciently to give any account of tho attack upon him and his mother. At one time there was a lucid interval, in which ho was jisked if he could identify the murderers, and he answered yes, but I immediately lapsed into an unconscious I condition. Tho missinir box has been found i near the railroad track, it having been taken with the papers from the hou.se. Tho mother is stiil in a critical condition.

Abundant testimony exists to prove that it nullifies hurtful climatic influences and the effects of exposure, that it reconciles the stomach to unaccustomed food, and prevents in injurious results from impure water. Mariners, tourists, emigrants and miner-, have all contributed their quota of testi mony in its behalf, and its protective 111 lluence has been most effectually demon strated in regions and under conditions where, if not really effective, that fact would long since have been exposed.

Special Ccrrespomltoce. "WASimrGTOH, May 19. The death of Sen ator Beck removes from congress ita most distinguished foreign born member. A striking commentary on tho character of our population and the equality of our citizens before the law and in the pursuit of success and fame is the fact that no fewer than twonty-five of the men elected to the present congress were born on foreign soil. The presence of theao men in the halls of legislation shows tiu-t in America there is no proscription of tho alien, and apparently no prejudice against him. The number of foreign born congressmen is by no means a fair criterion of tho generosity and confi dence extended by tho peopb to foreigners who have come here to find homes, for at least two score other members of the pres ent congress, though, bom in America, aro the sons of foreign born parents. Among these aliens who have become not only citi zens but law givers in their adopted land are several who havo rison to great prom inence. The late Senator Beck was one of the ablest and most influential members of the Americauhouso of lords, though he had started out from his humble home in Scot land with a name to make and an educa tion to acquire. Here he found tho oppor tunity, the warm welcome which stimulate industry and foster genius, and he rose to a place which would have been simply im possible in hi3 native land had ho had thrice the genius which wss his. Gen. Henderson of Iowa, also a native of Scotland, is one of the leading men of tha house of representa tives, and last fall was a prominent candi date for the great office of speaker. Judge Crisp, of Georgia, a native of England, will be a formidable candidate for speaker of the next houso incase his party shall obtain a majority therein. Senator Sherman, of Ohio, sat in his li brary one recent evening talking of the proposed law to regulato immigration. "One oan never tell just how to apply such a law as this," said he; "wo never 'know when we are-doing not only private injus tice but public wrong in keeping out of tho country men who maybecome useful and prominent. I remember some years ago in my town of Mansfield, 0., we were much disturbed by the appearance in our midst of a blacksmith from Ecglund who had a largo family of small children and no other visible assets excepting a pair of strong arms. At first there was a fear that ho might become a public charge, and I recol lect his case coming up for discussion in tho town board. Somo one suggested that the blacksmith bo sent on to another town, but wiser counael prevailed, and tho poor family was permitted to remain. The blacksmith went to work, and managed somehow to got through the winter. Now ono of his sons is president of a bank in the west, another is at the head of a largo railway corporation, a third is a member of tho present congress, and the old man himself died in very comfortablo circum stances." Senator Sherman declined to give tho name of the member of congress who sprung from this unpromising family, but it will bo found in tho list of statesmen contributed to the present congress by for eign land3. Scotland must be given the post of honor in this field. From her hills and dells come five of tho most prominent men in the Cap itol Senator Beck and Representatives Henderson and Kerr of Iowa, and Laidlnw and Farquhar of New York. Ireland has not as large a delegation as usual, Bending but four of her natives Representatives McAdoo, of New Jersey, and Clancy, Quinn and Wiley, of New York. England is represented by two senators Jones of Nevada and Pasco of Florida, and by two repiesentatives Crisp of Geor gia and Greonhalgo of Massachusetts. Germany's four representatives are: Bar wig and Briclmer, of Wisconsin; Niedring haus, of Missouri, and Lchlbach, of New Jersey. The British Possessions on our northern borders send ono senator, McMillan of Michigan, and four representatives Cln nie of California, Connell of Nebraska, Ste phenson of Michigan and Grout of Penn sylvania. Scandinavia is honored by the prcsenco of two of her sons Haugen of Wisconsin and Lind of Minnesota. The little Isle of Man was the birthplace of Delegate Caino, of Utah. Certainly no other country in tho world can show such a roster of adopted citizens among her law makers. Nearly all of these men, moreover, have risen to their present honorable position from poverty and humbleness. Most of them wero the sons of poor immigrant who camo to this country hoping to find a better share of the good things of life than had fallen to their lot amid tho rigid conditions of tho Old World, lveavmg London fox tho freo soil of America tho father of Senator Pasco, of Florida, settled in Massachusetta. He was n mechanic, able to support his- fam ily, but not to gratify the ambition of his son for a course in Harvard. Nevertheless that nmbrtiou was gratified, for the young man taught school during tho winter months and thus paid his own way through college. It was as a school teacher that ho went to Florida, and there he rapidly rose in public esteem till they made a senator of him. Senator McMillan, of Michigan, is a splendid type of tho sort of men who havo been drifting in great numbers from Can ada into the United States. All along the border Canadian blood has entered the current of social, commercial and political life in this country, and has in numberless places shown that it is virile and whole some. In Chicago, for instance, hundreds of prominent business and professional men are British-Americans, snd there is no cla&s in that city which txercises great er influence for g'xxi government and sets a better example of good chips' '-ip. Sen ator McMillan was a poor bo, a native of Hamilten, Ont., where in cir.. ....e ho was a clerk in a hard-.raro store. li&viag be come one of tho richest men in Michigan, and one of those men who hare on their hands the management of two or three dozen large enterprises, he still finds time to think of tne oung men who are grow ing up about him. No rich man in this country has done more in the way of help ing young men to start in business than Senator McMillan. In Detroit, it is said, one may find fifty prosperous firms that were set on their feet by tne jrenarwity of the senator. If Mr. McMillan thinks a young man has stuff in him of tha right sort, if ho believes In his honesty, energy nnd capacity, bo is very likely to help him out. But he cannot be fooled. He is a close student of human nature, and seems to have an marring induces as to charac ter. Senator Jones, of Nevada, was a poor English boy, a native of Herefordshire. His'parents brought him to this country when he was but a yc&r Oid, and h and the other ohiHraa were abou; all they did have in the lino of vjsieis ase. They settled on a farm in northern Ohio, and the boy hod a chance to go to the district school a few -rrintecs before the California mining craze of 148 broke out. Though young Jon?s was only W years old be caught the fever and waat to the coast, where he worked in the mines with shovel and pick, droe mules and did anything that came to kind, eventually makinz aforuno gf $6j- 000,000. Then he meet co-emuxxm-ma-rx' ample-set "by other rich men of tho coast snd become a cat railway mscnato, and soon he found kiox:2lf worth but c law thousand instead of a few millions cf dollars. Now he has acquired another largo fortune, and probably is not too old to make another should ho be so unfortunate es to lose this one. Senator Jones is ona of the wittiest and happiest men in congress, very popu lar, and the bright particular champion, of silver. -V? One of Senator Jones' peculiarities is his fondness for the food which ha ased to eat as a miner. Nothing makes him happier than a chance to open up a bos of sardines or herrings, and to maka flapjacks befora an open fir Broiled Spanish maokerel is to him the ambrosia of life, providing ho can broil it himself just as hedidin the old days. He is also a famous maker of salads. The cooks at the Capitol restaurant say Jones would bo a great nuisance if it were, not for his generous tips. Three or four times a week he goes dom into the kitchen and shows them how to do thing3, and once in a while prepares a lunch with his own hands to which two or three of his senatorial cronies aro invited. An invita tion to one of Jones' lunches is highly prized by men who have homely tastes, for it means a rare treat of bacon and eggs, herrings, sardines, mackerel and canned fruits and vegetables. After the last flap jack has been turned and tho last can opened it is likely a few corks ore pulled. Senator Jones is a connoisseur in cooking. He runs to extremes all the way from a simple lunch of his own getting to a din ner costing S50 a nlate. He claims with no little pride that the greatest cook in Amer ica is not in Washington, nor in New York, but away out-in. San Francisco in a club of which he has the honor to be a member. Gen. Henderspn, of Iowa, was another poor Scot boy. His parents'brought him to America when he was a lad, and after working till he was 21 on a farm, serving in the army as a private and losing a leg in tho defense of his country, he studied law and became one of the successful men of his times. Representative Wiley, of New York, brought with him from the soil of Ireland a smooth tongue, by tho aid of which, with ofher good qualities, he has lifted himself from the lot of a farm laborer successively to local officeholder, country storekeeper, member of the legislature and member of congress. Greenhalge, o'f Massachusetts, who in his first term has won a reputation as an ora tor and wit, was boro'atClithero, England, of parents who struggled against the condi tions of life surrounding them, till in a fit of desperation they concluded to see what chance there was for a poor man in tho United States. Their sou had precious few advantages in his youth, but fairly fought hi3 way to an education and a comfortable fortune won in his profession of tho law. Now he is about the most prominent citi zen of Lowell, of which city he was once mayor, and ono 'of the most promising members of congress from the oldBay state. William McAdoo, the young Irishman who has como to bo looked upon as the leader of tho New Jersey delegation in congress and also as one of tho brightest men in tho house, started out in life under auspices which did not promise much for his future. His parents were among tho poorest of Ireland's poor, but they camo to America, settled in Jersey City, and there their son was able to get enough education out of the public schools to enable him to go through a law office and emerge a well equipped and successful practitioner. Pos sessing that natural aptitudo for politics which is a characteristic of tho Irish, ho soon made his way into the legislature and thenco to congress, where ho is now serving his fourth term. Tho life story of Congressman Niedring haus, of St. Louis, is another good type of tho experiences enjoyed by many foreigners who have come to America seeking homos. He was born in Westphalia, where ho re ceived a common school education, and was then placed in his father's shop, along with several of his brothers, and taught tho trade of painting, glazing and tinning. When ho was IS ho camo to the United States, and found work at St. Louis, re ceiving at first tho pay of a week. Out of this, ho says, ho managed to save one fourth, and when his brother had joined him, tnd they had an increase of wages, they managed to start a shop of their own out of ihcir savings. Now the Neidring haus Brothers havo an extensive factory in which thoy employ 1,200 people, and each of tho brothers is a millionaire. Mr. Niod ringbaus is not a groat politician, and the speeches which he makes are sometimes very funny, but ho is a good business man and a wise counselor. Congressman Clunio, of California, is a native of Newfoundland, said to bo tho only man from that island who ever rose to prominence in tho United States. He is stall a young ..man, but has been prac ticing law for twenty years, and is ono of the most successful lawyers on the coast. Ho began practicing law before he was of oge, and the Californiaas say he had to stretch his oath a little in order to gain admittance to the bar. Mr. Clunie him self aays he was admitted when 18 years old by special act of tho legislature Now ho is a member of tho great committee on pays and moans and one of the most in fluential men in the house. But it is not necessary to givo other in stances of tho manner in which poor boys from other lands "aro mado welcome in this country and given an oven chance in the race of life. Already, we think, w havo have pointed a moral and adorned a tale. Proposed Trufflo In Air. Here is a new scientific notion. It is pro posed to build a tower in London 1,200 feet tall, at which height tho summit will be far above tho smoky stratum. The top is to be arranged with special machinery by which pure air can be collected and driven down to the grimy streets and somber houses. It will be forced through a special system of mains and supplied to soot choked citizens at a fixed price per cubic foot. Allowed Cures by Hypnotism. Dr. Luys, a French physician, claims to effect remarkable cures by means of hyp notism. He places his medium in contact with the patient, and asserts that he trans fers maladies from the patient to tho medimn, who is meanwhile in a state of catalepsy. Tho nulady, it apTjcAra, leaves the medium at the moment of "his awaken ing. The Funny 3Ian. Wio Is tbe aia who siis and bites ILs pen ir:ta aspect solemn?

POPULAR SCIENTIFIC RECREATION AND VALUABLE INFORMATION. rSssbeit, How to Produce Perfect Combustion with Wood Shavings, Sawdust, Etc, When Firing a Furnace A New Non-Explosive Flash Uht. .-yTT-?:, Stokers with shavings are generally a nuisance to the whole' neighborhood, poi soning the atmosphere all around, making the place dirty, unhealthy and disagreea ble. This is caused by supplying the fira with fresh shavings on top of the burned ones and smoldering it, generating a largo amount of smoke but no heat. The fixe and heat are only produced when all the shavings are charred. In order to produce perfect combustion with wood shavings, sawdust, etc, it is necessary to burn them from the top, and here is givencthe details of how a correspondent of Power-Steam did it with satisfactory results. TIG. L FHUXCr WITH 6HAVTXGS. Provide a half inch gas pipe long enough to reach to the end of the furnace. Light your shaving fire, and when nearly burned take your half inch pipe and divide the burning shavings through tho middle, banking them against the side walla as shown in Fig. 1, Now feed a pile of new shavings into the center on to tho clean grate bars and close your furnace doors. Tho shavings will begin to burn from above, lighted from tho two side fires, the air will pass through the bars into the shavings, whero it will bo heated and unite with the gas, making the combustion perfect, gen erating heat and no smoke and the fire will last muchlonger and require not half tho labor in stoking. If shavings are left over, the planer shavings could be compress ed and sold for packing many goods. Any ono making this trial will bo convinced of its efficiency. jj-V?r??V fvb!rh;C"r.vT- -ui ryv yTTf. j Z ffifyS -VgyTf ,fT ULuuuuuuuuuuy FIG. 2. FIRING WITH EHAVXHGB. The correspondent quoted claims by this plan a great saving in fuel, with plenty of power and no complaints from the neigh bors, as there was no more smoke apparent at the chimney. A New Flash tight. At a regular meeting of tho Washington Chemical society, April 11, Dr. Thomas Taylor, of tho United States department of agriculture exhibited a new flash light intended to take tho place of several kinds which have of late proved highly danger ous in practice. Science tells that Dr. Taylor's new flash light consists largely of charcoal made from tho silky down of tho milk weed a form of carbon which he prefers to all others, because of its freedom from ash. A few grains xf this new com position placed on tissue paper and lighted by a punk match produced a prompt and blinding flash, while it was observed that the paper on which the powder-rested was not even scorched. Tho flash being instan taneous, the heat is not sufficient to ignite tho most inflammable material on which the powder may rest. Dr. Taylor demon strated this by using, with the same paper for a base, an inferior flash light, which set fire to tho paper at once. This is owing to the comparatively alow combustion of tho chemicals used in the inferior grade. Dr. Taylor said that the powder of his new flash light will not explode either by con cussion or friction. To Prevent Metals from Rusting. Melt together a pound of lard and a lump of rosin, the suo of an English walnut, using only heat enough to melt tho rosin, which will take place soon if it is broken fine. By wrapping the rosin in a piece of stout brown paper and striking it gently with a hammer, smooth stone or other hard substance, the rosin may be readily broken, and by carefully opening the paper, may bo added to tho lard with case. When the rosin is completely melted stir tbe mix ture well nnd set aside to cool, and, as it begins to harden, stir occasionally. When cool keep it covered to exclude the dust. Any article of steel, even delicate machin ery, covered with this moving tho articlo slightly to cause the composition to enter all crevices no matter how thin the coat ing, will be completely protected, and, ac cording to The Horological Review, tho v mixture will prove itself a complete anti- rust. Scientific Brpritles. The next half century will undoubtedly witness a remarkable increase in the exten sion of the railroad systems of tho world. An extraordinary invention is claimed to have been made by a Russian officer, in a luminous projectile to be fired from a gun, which will be extremely useful for discov ering tho movements of an enemy in a naval contest at night. A good preventive for the inroads of ants is a strip of carbolated petrolatum, about half an inch in width, drawn about the places frequented. Prof. C. F. Brackett, in a recent address, expressed some very pregnant ideas in very simple language. He said: "Sound Is not air; it is air in motion. Electricity is not matter; it is matter doing something. And we are all trying to find out just, what it is doing." An electric fire engine Is reported as a recent invention. It is claimed that this engine can be Btarted at full speed when ever wanted, i3 noiseless, makes no smoke nor a?hts, 13 lighter than a steam engine of equal power, costs one-third lea6, is safer and more economical.

f" ht WlitMlK gaxltj kXz: msclag limimg, fttlt 1890: I f I HNB RMS. Robert Stoll, a Champion Ama teur Gymnast. UNSURPASSED FOR SIX TEARS. Sralcolm W. Ford Writes About His "Won derful Performances A 39-IncIi Chest and Remarkably Developed Arm Mus cles Rentier Him Practically Invincible at tho Game. Although championships at field games lave been given for about fifteen years in amateur athletic circles, similar titles have been given for gymnastic performances only since 18S5. The first gymnastic champion ship meeting was held at Tammany hall, 2vow York city, under the auspices of tho American Athletic club. Robert Stoll, whose picture is given here, won the event known as the flying rings on that occasion, and each year since then he has demon strated his superiority in this line. The other events on the programmes each year are parallel bars, horizontal bar, club swinging and rope climbing. These other events have been distributed pretty well nmong various athletes, but the list of champions on the flying rings for the six years shows no other name than Stoll. He made his debut in athletics as a mid dle distance runner, and at a half mile from the years 1881 to 18S5 he ranked third or fourth best i n America. He is 5 feet G inches tall, and weighs 142 pounds in athletic clothes. When he was running his Viocf. Via nut. nn n. Ltirely different fig ure from the aver- Uxk-agc foot racer, for he was heavily built around the chest and arms and looked more like a miniature weight thrower than one who was fleet footed. Since his retirement from running he has worked con siderably in a gymnasium on parallel and hori zontal bars and the rings, and tho EOBERT STOLL. muscles Of his arms, chest and shoulders have grown in size a great deal. His chest measurement now is S3 inches, and his biceps with arm "bent are 14 inches. These dimensions are very large for one of his height andnweight, "but the strength he has gained by their de velopment enables him to perform feats on the flying rings consisting entirely of arm work, which, so.far, have not been dupli cated by any other amateur, although thero have been nianj- aspirants. His specialties on tho rings are forward and back scalps, one arm horizontals, swinging hand balances, the cross and very slowpull and push ups. He not only has a monopoly so far- as ease and graco of movement is concerned, but the combina nations in which he commences on one fe.it and does not drop from the rings until he has performed three or four others, making one movement of the lot, is whero his chief superiority is noticed. A number of good judges who were present last March when Stoll won the flying ring championship for the sixth time said that they had never eeen a professional who could equal him in somoof his combinations. On this occa sion Stoll won 43 points out of a possible 45, and the other competitors, although they were high class, seemed almost like ,3iovices alongside of nim. In 18S8 rope climbing was added to the programme, the game consisting of climb ing a certain length, of rope against time. Stoll won tho ovent, defeat ing the next man by two-fifths of a becond; but in 1SS9 nd 1800 he had to succumb to the quicker ncting muscles of other men. He thinks that so much practice in heavy arm exer cise to acquire proficiency on tho flying rings has made his muscles too slow for cfast rope climbing. His build is very suitable for arm work, for his legs are not heavy, and he therefore lias less weight to support or carry when on tho apparatus. Ho c.ercises regularly -certain evenings in a gymnasium and at tends to a successful jewelry business dur ing the day. Ho joined the 2sew York -Athletic club a year ago, and since then has represented it in the various competi tions. Malcolm "NY. Ford. Brooklyn's (P. I,.) Third Kaeman. TV".

I have known several cases, and will give a free translation of three I wrote a note to a book house that ran after this fashion: I want 3 ou to try as a boy Fred He Is plucky, means business, will not whine about pro- ...rootion, will work as early and late as you wish, wul hold his tongue, and will earn 52 for every one j ou pay him. He will be content with S3 a week. I received this reply in substance: I have no vacancy among the boys, but such a boy as you mention will always pay twice over. It was a loud commendation you gave him. If you dare stand by it, send him along. I shall keep your indorsement for ready reference. Fred reported for work the next morn ing. He began at the bottom, sweeping, dusting, clearing up, talcing away books, carrying off waste paper, etc. In a short time the store looked as it never did before. He was the first thero in the morning and the last at night He never asked what to do next, but found Botnething to do until new work was assigned. He kept his mouth shut, his eyes and ears open, and his feet and thoughts active. The fifth week they raised him to o and gave him work above four other youths whom, he found there. At the end of four months he was raised to 12 a week without ask ing it. Ben went from the high school into an office at 3 a week. They told him plainly that there was no probability of promotion, as no boy had been promoted for twelve years, but there was a possi bility. There was nothing about him that was promising. He had not stood high in school, was not a good penman, was not strong physically; but he went to work with the full determination that he would "get there." A few days after the senior member of the firm saw him going to the postofiice, and was so delighted with his evident intent to boom the mail business that ho said to his associates: "I wish there was some way to label Ben 'This boy is from the house of It is worth something to havo such an exhibition of business on the street." In the course of a few months another boy was secured, and Ben was given $6, until, in less than three years, he was having $20 a week, making a place for himself by the wn he did everything. In those three years a thousand other boys in Boston had changed from place to place, and were still working for $3 or $4 a week. The boy who is merely an office boy will never be promoted, neither will ho who is above being an office boy; who is lazy, indifferent, talkative, sulky, moody, meddlesome, envious, jealous, afiaid of doing more than his share, and bound not to earn more than he is paid for. Ho will bo promoted who makes himself equal to every emergency; who loves work, learns how to work, how to be cheerful and-loyal, lending a hand every where; who puts brains into his work; who lets his "head 6ave his heels;" who will work anywhere, at any time, at any thing, without complaint. A. E. "Win ship in Golden Rule. The Endurance of the Camel. Admiral D. D. Porter, who once went to North Africa to secure camels for in troduction into America, said in a recent interview: "In their campaigns against Algiers, the French were surprised to see their camels, al though reduced to skeletons, making forced marches with their loads. Mules in their condition could not have carried even their saddles. A camel's flesh is as good as beef. You can hardly tell one meat from the other. Camel's milk is very good, as I can testify, because I used it in my coffee. A camel generally drinks once in three days, and besides his four stomachs ho carries a sort of reservoir in which he stores water. 1 have been told that even ten days after the death of a camel this reservoir can bs opened and ten or fifteen pint3 of clear, drinkable water taken from it. "On one occasion six camels carried 3,6-iS pounds of oats and made the jour ney in much quicker time than two wag ons, each drawn by six mules, and to gether carrying about the same weight of load. On a very heavy road a caravan of our camels carried from San Antonio nearly two tons of oats, making about twenty miles a day. The roads were such that wagons could not have been used at all. 1 believe this is an experi ment worth trying again. The camel would not only make a valuable adjunct to our army in the northwest and west, but I believe the day is coming in which he will be domesticated as a beast of burden all through the southern and middle regions of this country." MASONIC. A His Gain In l'ennsj-lvaaia Old Bylaw. Temple Talk. The Nebraska Masonic grand lodge has adopted a rule prohibiting saloon keepers from becoming members of the order, and requires their expulsion from the ordemn less they discontinue their business. R. W. Bro. Michael Nisbet, in bis annual report to the grand lodge of Pennsylvania for the year, places the number of lodges in the jurisdiction at 387, and the membership at S9,735, a gain during the year of 1,190. The members of the craft in London are considering the question of organizing a Masonic club and recreation roora. A Masonic Veteran association in Mis souri is now an assured fact.

The committee on appeals in the grand lodge of Pennsylvania in their report state that "a resident of one state cannot enter another for the purposo of receiving the degrees in Masonry without first having the permission of the grand lodge holding proper jurisdiction over his residence; it carefully guards its own borders and can not permit an injury or injustice to a neighboring jurisdiction by its own or any act of its subordinate lodges." An appli cant who had falsely represented his resi dence to be in Philadelphia when it was in Atlantic City, X. J., was expelled from all the rights and privileges of Freemasonry. The Masons of Chicago are perfecting plans for a new temple to cost some $3,000, 000, while the Masons of Tacoraa have or ganized an incorporated company for the same purpose. The prospects for building a new temple in San Francisco are consid ered favorable. The one now at the corner of Post and Montgomery streets is inade quate to tho demands made upon it, and the first definite move that is likely to take place towards obtaining a new structure will be the sale of the former, which will be an easy matter to effect. The bylaws of St. John's lodge, No. 1, show that a century ago, if a brother was not properly clothed and ready when the lodge was opened, he was fined sixpence. Newburg,N. Y., is possessed of oneof the finest Masonic temples in the state. It is complete in every detail, and handsomely fitted and decorated, adapted to lodge, chapter and commandery work; elegant parlors, retiring, ante and reading rooms. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. Cheering Hows from tlio Endowment Itank 'Soles. Supreme Secretary Kennedy has sent out his quarterly roport of tho endowment rank, and tho increased prosperity it is en joying will he gratifying to all members and other knights who some time may need its protection. There have been 1,016 admissions and 266 losses from various causes, bringing the membership to 21,2o5, carrying $43,776,000 endowment. The old first, second and third classes have nearly disappeared. The balance in the treasury is $98,640.S2. Total paid during quarter, 5154,000. Total to date in all classes, $5, 292,032. The report concludes as follows: The quarterly period ending March 31, 1890, completes the thirteenth fiscal year of the endowment rank. The new business since Jan. 1 exceeded that of the previous quarter. Forty-eight new sections in 24 states were organized. Ohio shows the great est number 7; "Wisconsin 6, and Indiana 5. A gain of 3 sections, 173 members and $295,000 endowment over tho new business of last quarter. During tho fiscal year just closed 174 new sections were organ ized, 3,505 new members admitted, repre senting 37,333,000 endowment. During the same period the payments to beneficiaries of deceased members amounted to $538,000. Notoi. The grand lodge of Pennsylvania has a surplus of $S,800.51. Supreme Representative J. S. Shropshire, of Omaha, Neb., has removed permanently to Butte, Mont. Arrangements are being made for the accommodation of Pythian Sisters at the supreme session to be held in Milwaukee next July. Chicago is soon to have a temple for Pyth ian Sisters. Throughout Missouri thero is great ac tivity in the order. During the past month new lodges have been started in three counties where never before have tho Knights planted their banner. Dubuque is to have a Pythian temple which will cost 8100,000. I. O. O.

This hall stands upon the site of the building where anti-slavery meetings w ere held before the war, and which was burned during that exciting period by the advocates of slavery. In 16S9 the assessors of Portland, Me., re turned the number of polls as 9,94S and es timated the population of the city at 42, 000, says The Independent Statesman. There are 2.S65 Odd Fellows in the seven subordinate lodges of the city, so that there is one Odd Fellow to each 3 47-100 of the voters, and one to each li &-10Q of the total population. This is believed to be the largest ratio of Odd Fellows to the voters and population of any city in tho world. There are 652,787 members connected with the order, of whom SS.490 are in Pennsyl vania. Since the year 1S30 the order has paid for relief $4S,601,S82.09. There is a Rebekah degree lodge in the Sandwich Islands. At the last report it was small in numbers. The late Charles T.

Every man buckles his belt his am gate. Every man can guide an ill wife weel but him that has ane. Every man can tout best on his ain horn. For want of a steek a shoo may be tint.
