GREAT REDUCTION SALE TILL JAN. 1ST, 1898.
!n order to make a statemet or our business on January 1st, 1898, we
have decided to reduce our large stock, It is easier to count dollars tli au
goods, a ttd for this reason we will sell lor cash lower than the lowest fro
no tv until January Sst. We carry large and select lines in the general m er¬
cantiie business and you can save money on every purchase you make of us as
ibove stilted,
Our business W ill continue the same as heretofore. w v / e are only J preparing
to E lake a statement in order that we may begin the NSW YEAR with a full knowledge of our business

“inf' vw . Intellect.”
In LSTti e had the pleasuri
of addressing- the great Bienial
Nation M 1 nitarian Conference,
held once in two years .it .Sa¬
ratoga Springs, for the ? ur
pose of bringing before tine
denomination tho chums of tin
lower animals. While waiting
i'or our turn to speak, the ques¬
tion of building a l .iitariai
thurch in Washington, 1). 0
came before the convention,
and the distinguished Jlev. Dr.
Bellows, of New York city, in
advocating it said “that there
M as piobably no place in the
known world where could be
Jound a greater gathering of
•infernal intellect' than at
Washington.’•
We* wonder whether whal
Dr. Bellows said in regard to
Washington is not coming too
true over a large of our whole
country, and what our colleges
and educational institutions art
doing to prevent it. We can
hardly take up a newspaper in
this month of October without
leading of college foot-ball and
base-hall lights J with gain
filing accompauimonts] or some
other kind of lights between
colleges, or between classes in
the same colleges. And then
we read ot biological studies in
colleges win h require all stud¬
ents, as a part of their cduca
lion, to dissect cats, and how
cat la mis are Being established
near mals these l’oi the colleges of to the raise students uni- |
use
—and e-.\ the same education |
is being < cried not only into our
col leg vud higher schools, hut
also iu i • nv eases even
our gram; tr schools; and then
how uur u Nonanes are pour
ing n.eif gi! info educational
institution to increase this edu
cation’and we wonder what all
this business is eon.ing to the
next generation, or w hat the
bcJifit would have b?en to us
if President Lincoln, . .rles
Summer, Daniel Webster, and
other distinguished men’ north
and south, had been similarly
educated.
And there seems u> he grov -
ing up afi over our country a
love of lighting—more battle
ships, more armed cruisers,
mote torpedo boats, more great
guns, more military training in
our schoe.s The newspapers
say that we are going to tak !
the Sanu-.viteh Islands, an
there is som i of our inly¬
ing a pa: - ' a* P eniaud, aud it
is even stigges'ed that we buy

There were nearly eleven
houBuml murders in our conn*
ry last year, while in England
tnd Wales them were during
ihe same length of time year
before last only one hundred
and sixty-three.
We wonder what all this is
oming to, and what our col
“ges and educational institu¬
tions and our Clirislain churches,
wen are doing to hasten the i
coming of “peace on earth’’ and !
|saying nothing of tho lower!

But while we wonder yve
shall continue to work with
such means as we can obtain
| so long at. we have power to
work | to send out into all our
schools the teaching of peace
and mercy which seem to us
best calculated to promote civ¬
il/, ation and Humanity, the
properity of our country, the
protection of property and life,
snd to make the world liap

According to the Chicago Trib¬
une, the town of Pullman Was
IV • tensifily named after the
Air, Pullman himself. The
bii >ry is that W. W. Beman
the architect ol’the town, fie
ing justly* proud of his work,
went to the proprietor aud asked
that if be named “Reman, »)
“Uiii’in,” said the magnate.
1< Facts is, 1 had thought of col¬
ling the place ‘Pullman’ from
the man who hu.lt and paid for
it. However.” Mr. Pullman ad
ded, as he f • bserved a look of
disappointment on the archi
teet’s face, “ 1 am not particu—
lar. Now what da you say to
compromising? Suppose we
take the first syllable of my
name ‘Pub,’ and tho second
syllable of your name, ‘man’
we have it, ‘Pull,’ ‘man,’
— Pullman You see that com
bines you idea with mine.”
Mr. Pullman’s suggestion
prevailed, and the name, it
seems, was a compromise,
though it is not reported that
