He was besought by the liberals to come up from Aram and help "curse. Israel." He came and made a long speech. His theme was the "Strength and weak nesses of the church." Instead of general and wholesale onslaught upon the church, as no doubt the liberals ex pected, hi talk abounded in such pas sages as this: "ihe church, like some splendid mosque, bathed in the glory of an irneniai sun on ine one siue, anu shrouded in deepest gloom on the other appeared in transcendent beauty, or aw fill sadness, according to the beholders standpoint.

To those who yet stood within the ancient fold, there was still in the time-worn Bible a voice of the Infinite; still did the sacrament speak to H.m of Nazareth, who carried him' self so royally through this ill-adjusted world; still did the old-time hymn come freighted through the ages with accumulated wealth of association; still to them did Zion stand by hills sur rounded, secure in the defence of her eternal King."

The American board closes the year without a dollar or debt, The Baptist churches in Sweden now number members, The American missionary association needs $25,000 during the month of Sep tember to close the year without debt. Of the 610 Chinamen on the rolls of the Chinese Sunday schools of New York, forty have professed faith Christ.

Evangelistio work is being carried on by Mr. Hallenbeck, among the natives and half-breeds of the Hawaiian islands, with great success. A granite memorial to Elihu Burritt, has been erected at New Britain, Conn. The inscription reads: "Friend of Peace and Philanthropist." Bishop Harris, of the M. E.

church, bas been on an eleven months tour among the anissionay stations of his church ui South A. erica and Europe. Mr. Spurgeon, the great preacher of London, is suffering from an affliction of the eyes, which his physician thinks has saved bira from an attack of the gout. In most of the larger tows of Minne sota, temperance principles are taught in the public schools.

A law has been recently passed in that state making such leaching obligatory. A "mile long" petition has been presented to Parliament by the women of England, in favor of Sunday closing of the saloons. To this 2has been added a similar one from the magistrates of the realm. Gate money, to the amount of $2,000, given by the proprietor of a race-course to the Roman Catholic church of Brighton, was ordered to be returned by the bishop of the diocese, and the priest was suspended. A good example.

While the Rev. Vivian Dodgson was preaching the other day from a barrel to a group of idlers on the bench at Lowestoft, England, be heard cries for help, and seeing that a boat was upset and five persons were struggling in the water, he left off preaching and instantly Bwam to I heir rescue. He brought one woman safe to shore, and the whole party were saved. The terms of the endowment of Gi-rard college, in Philadelphia, provides that no clergyman shall be permitted to enter the building or even the grounds; still it is a remarkable fact that the oollege has always been under the influence of the most earnest Christian men. All the presidents have been devoted Christian laymen.

William H. Allen, D. whose death took place Aug. .29, was a member of the Methodist ohurch. for several years was I president of the American Bible Society, and while at the head of the college was an active worker for the religious and moral development of the eleven hundred orphan boys under bis care, This is the pesition of Herbert Spencer, the great English philosopher, in theology: "God is unknown and unknowable, unrevealed and unrevealable, for to reveal requires that some one shall comprehend what is revealed." Let us look at this a little.

To comprehend, is thus defined by Webster: -'To understand a thing in all its compass and extent." What philosopher is there in all the world who comprehends the human mind So then, according to Mr. Spencer, we cannot know that we have any minds. How can we ever know that there is a blade of grass or ray of light? No one has comprehended either, as yet. We can know that there is a God, jest as we know there is a celestial system, even though there may be a thousand things about them that we do not snow. Here are some nuts, for those peo ple who think that Christianity is mak jng no progress in the world, to oratk: Eighty-six years ago, there were in the were bushels of affidavits on which ar rests ought to be based under ordinary practice, yet no arrests were made.

Leland Stanford, of Cal ifornia, arrived here this afternoon, having on board eight of bis thorough' bred horses, which are to be trotted at the breeder's meeting at New York in October. Among the number is Wild Flower, a Bay Hambletonian mare two years old, and able to trot in four min utes. St. Paul, Sept. 23.

Reports from all railroad lines leading out of the city re port more or less frost for the past two nights. Corn is generally reported un injured, except in low, swampy ground, and even there the damage is but slight. The weather remains threateningly cold along all the lines, but the crop is so far advanced as to be beyond danger. The estimated yield is very high, being placed at from forty to six ty bushels per acre, some even going so lar as kj preaici an average oi sixty bushels in the southern portion of the state. MAILS CONDENSED.

Dr. Elisha Gray in a recent interview stated that there are already in use in the United States 220,000 telephones, and that the number is increasing at the rate of 6,000 a day. During the month of August the land offioe of the Northern Pacifio railway sold 62,600 acres of land to farmers. The old maxim of "Pick your flint and keep your powder dry" has expired. A German professor has invented a gunpowder that resists all injury from water.

Ihe court records show that the tree of life has been in profuse bloom this year, with more crops to hear from. Eliza Pinkston, who cut such a prom inent figure before the committee of "visiting statesmen" has come to grief, as we learn from the Canton, pa pers that she was arraigned, with a lot of other thieves, on a charge of rob bing, before Mayor Thomas, of that town, and placed in jail to await the meeting of the oircuit court. Friends of the Garfield family express the opinion that Mrs. Garfield, who now ranks among the wealthiest wo men in the country, intends to brauoh out extensively. The handsomest es tablishment in Cleveland, which she has lately purchased, cannot, they say, be maintained at less expenditure than $10,000 per annum.

Since the death of the late president, Mrs. Garfield has only lived for about two months at the home place at Mentor, and it is under stood to be her intention to make Cleve land ber permanent residence. Aooording to a New York dramatic newspaper, a coterie or tne leading fashionable ladies of that city recently held a private meeting to consult on the question of the recognition, socially, of Mrs. Langtty, on her arrival in this country. The majority of them are inclined to take the negative of the proposition on the ground that the queen cut the lady's acquaintance when she went upon the stage.

New London Day: John H. Ford, ice dealer, purchased the stock in the Bur- dick loe-nouse in rreston uns season. In taking a 250-pound ice cake from one of the bouses a day or two ago he noticed that a frog was imbedded in the centre of the cake. Workmen carefully cut away the ice and liberated the imprisoned reptile. It was stiff with legs extended at lull length.

Some one suggested that with proper treatment the frog might be rasusciuated. A pail of water was procured and the animal was placed in it After a few moments it showed signs of life and soon lively as any other frog. The pail containing the frog was bung up in a shed over nig' it, and the next morning the animal was gone. The ice in which the frog was imprisoned was cut last February, so that it must bavsbeen froien for nearly seven months. a a Associate Press Dispatches Reported for the Pioneer.

No one seems to know who started the Cleveland boom AH at once his name tilled the air. It suggested itself. There is a spontane OLuntw about the Cleveland movement which is vastly to his credit.

Nobody accuses him or bis friends of spending a cent for newspaper pufls. And the people of Buffalo urge with no little reason that the eastern part of the state Das had more than its share ot official honors, and that it is time that Erie county were remembered. Unfortunately for Mr. Cleveland, he is little known in the eastern counties; his deserved reputation does not cover tiis whole stutn, and his name evokes no enthusiasm whatever east of Syracuse.
