Largo and Enthusiastic Gathering at the Conoonlla College Grounds Yesterday ToColelmite the Lutheran Minsloimry Work.

The Lutheran Mission feast on the Conccrdia College grounds yesterdfvy was very largely attended, not only by the Lutherans of this city but also from all parts of the county. The exercises were held iu the beautiful little grove on the grounds, where a speaker's stand, a band stand and a large number of seats were placed in position. The exercises opened at 10 o'clock with a selection by the St. Paul's band, which also accompanied the singing of the hymns by the congregation. The sermon in the forenoon was by Rev.

I. Dreyor, of Zion's church, and was pronounced by all an excellent one. Mr. Dreyer has been hero only a short time. The noon hour was spent in social intercourse and eating lunch; some had brought their satchels With them, others went to their homes, but thfe majority partook of lunch in the dining room of the college, which had been provided by the ladies.

At 2 o'clock the religions exercises again began by the singing of a hymn by the entire congregation, after which Rev. E. Kaehler preached a sermon, his text being "Thy Kingdom Come," After another hymn, Prof. Bischof, editor of the Lutheran Pioneer, spoke briclly about the Lutheran Mission among the colored people in the south. This Synod now nai a regular colored congregation in Little Rock, ttoo in New Orleans and one in Virginia.

Each of these congregations has parochial school connected with the church. Rev. H. G. Sauer gave a brief history of the mission work among the Germans in the newly settled country in the west, whore the Synod employs sovouty traveling missionaries.

The directors say they will adjust all cial liabilities before finally closing their affairs. Tho i( management have permitted some very, questionable tricks to be played upon a too confiding and long suffering public, Advertisements appeared in the papers that yesterday's game would be played be tween the Fort Waynes, and Louisville Mutuals. A large audience assembled at League park to witness the game. The Waynes were on deck, but instead of the Mutuals a local "scrub" nine, composed for the most part of mere boys who are densely ignorant of the game, appeared in the field. Many persons left the place in disgust after the first apt of the farce.

The score stood to 2 in favor of the regulars. This mode of victimizing the people cannot be too strongly condemned. It is disgraceful, and a gentleman would hesitate before associating with a gang who permit such proceedings. i i I I i i Booming Keiitor. ROANN, Aug.

2, 1884. Gentlembn of the Gazette: I see by yours and other papers that my young and enthusiastic friend, T. P. Keator, will be a candidate for gress before the Republican convention of the Twelfth district. I will have this to say that I would rather see him go to congress than any man living, save G.

W. Steele, and if Mr. Keator gets the nomination the Democrats will have more hot shot to contend with than they will be able to digest in one campaign. He is a terror to all mossbacks, and will poll a larger vote than any other man in this district If there is a man living that is not afraid of whiskey, Beauregard Democracy and the devil, that man is Thei-on P. Koator.

ffli Mns. FRANCES HODGSON BURNETT, the novelist, is familiarly called by hot Washington friends "That Lass o' Low- rid'fl," from the book which has brought her the greatest fame. Though English by birth, she has resided so long in this country that she looks upon it almost as her native land. Mrs. Burnett is still young, and wears her blonde hair in such a tangle that it is impossible to tell which end grows on her head.

Dr. Burnett, her husband, has dark hair and eyes, very fine features, and an expression instinct with intelligence and goodness. Their two children, boys of about 8 and 10, are beautiful beyond compare, with starry brown eyes, and hair like tawny gold. They live in open air, young Arabs, perfectly untrftmmeled. A ditch nine hundred feet long, throe foot wide, and throe foot deep has just been used atSan JosoPapaloapan, Cruz, to bury slaughtered grasshoppers.

It is neediest to say that, while the work is going on, strangers are never allowed to enter the building, as it is necessary that every man should have his individual attention at such times upon his work. "Strict rules govern our men, 1 remarked the manager, "as the least venture at experimenting would leave no one to tell how the accident happened." The nitro-glyeerine thus manufactured has an explosive force ten times greater than that of blasting powder, and is. used on very heavy work, but we sell very little in that shape, remarked the manager, as it is run down a tunnel to the room below, where it is manufactured into dynamite, dnalin, or vigorite, all of which have nitre-glycerine as their basis, but are known by different names to designate the degree Of; As tapidly as possible, the niferofglyceriae mixed with charcoal, wood pulp, or other mixtures, and reduced into a commodity pore readily handled: for although dynamite is understood to be extremely dangerous to handle, it is rammed into the cartridges with a stick, with as little apparent fear of the result as would be the case were the substance so much ffaeette. AC UTS SENSES.

There are many good stories about the sharpness of sense of persons who have been trained in the exercise of them. That of the wine taster who declared, on sipping from a glass of wine taken from the butt, just brought in, that the liquor had a taste of iron and leather, which was justified when the butt was emptied, by the discovery of a small key with a leather tag, is apocryphal. But it is hardly more wonderful than what was recently related by Mr. Charles W. Clarke, of Feoria, in a scientific lecture, in relation to the trained sense of smell in dogs and hunters While we were talking, two young dogs had gone to a small eminence a few rods from the old man's cabin, and with their noses in the air, would, at short intervals utter a low, warning cry.

The trapper soon noticed it, and, calling to an old dog in the cabin, he said: "Dave, go up yonder and see what those youngsters ara making a fuss about." The dog, after reaching the place and standing a moment with outstretched neck and distended nostrils, gave a clear but low warning notice, such as I had never heard from a dog before. "la tbat so, Dave?" said the old man. He immediately went to the same place, and began to sniff the air, much after the manner of the dogs. "Sure enough, Dave," he said, "you are right." "What is it?" I asked. "The prairie is on fire, 1 he said, "some thirty or forty miles north-west from here.

I must set a back fire on the other side of the creek, or my cabin and bees will be in ashes before morning, should the wind rise; and, by the way," he said, "you go back by 'the way you came, and tell the people to set back-fires at once, and have thsm send word to the settlement 1 below." Before starting, I tried my sonse of smell; and, although I imitated the titudo of the trapper and the dog, I could detect "nothing the sweet October air.
