A Canadian who eloped with two wc men had the combination's baggage checked for Troy, where he hoped that the opportunities for feminine employment would enable him to enjoy the leisure for which he believes himself to be fitted. THK PROHIBITIONISTS Are Not Following the Example of the Free souers. The third party Prohibitionists assume greater conscientiousness than other folk, and point with pride to the early Abolitionists as their models. Let us look in that direction and not only see but try to comprehend the example presented. The Abolitionists and the Free Boilers, instead of opposing the Republican party, rallied to its support when it declared that the Territories should be dedicated to free dom.

They did not continue a separate. organization upon the platform that trie Republicans were not then doing enough; they were satisfied with the effort to do something. When the war followed and Abraham Lincoln was endeavoring to keep within the Union the border States by his criers of compensated emancipa tion, the early Free Soilere did not aban don the Union cause and charge that he was compromising with the enemy! They stood in line, and aided the Ad ministration in all of its struggles. Compare the good sense shown by the Free Soilers, the educators of the nation on the question of slavery with the so called educators upon the question of temperance to day. The Republican party of Pennsylvania agreed to submit the prohibitory amendment; the third party Prohibitionists aided the enemy because they did not believe the agreement was in good faith.

This year good faith was proven in the Legislature, and the third party Prohibitionists now, say that High License is a "compromise with the devil. Is their position logical If it is, then any approach to the right is. a "comDromise with the devil." No such 1 logic guided the early Free Soilers, If tt had, they would have organised a third party contingent to fire from the rear upon the Union soldiers, upon the plea that they were not abolishing slavery fast enough This parallel shows the defect in the logic of the third party, and shows like wise that the best conscience is careful not to assail those who are trying, in practical ways, to do the right thing. GOLD IN MINNESOTA. Rich Deposits Found Near Duluth.

A dispatch from Duluth, says Frank and George Spencer and Louis Baubein, the latter an old half breed ex plorer, to day brought to Duluth a large box of gold nuggets, which indicates, a find of unusual richness and value.

Two kinds of samples were shown, one iaken trom near the shore of a small lake and the other in quartz. The Spencer brothers also brought here a few specimens of rich native silver and a curiously fashioned vessel made ot wnat seems to be very hard copper. The latter wa9 found near the place where the richest gold nugget was discovered. They started out to look tor sliver ore and round the gold. THIS SEVENTH CAVALRY Hold Their Tenth Annual Reunion.

Flood, the bonanza king, is reported to be at death's door in San Francisco. He has not yet recovered and probably never will recover from the shock incident to the great wheat corner and the Nevada bank troubles.

He is a physical wreck. Occasionally he appears to be in fair health, but a relapse speedily follows. He has grown much worse in the last few days, and alarming rumors about his condition are current. i A Teamster's LneK la Oil. Derrick.

I "See that old fellow on the wagon?" asked Curt Robinson yesterday, of the Derrick, "That is 'Sandy' Williamson He is driving team for a living, and back in '65 he was worth $200,000. Got his money in a funny way.too. He was haul ing for an oil company that was operat ing near the mouth of Cherry Run. The company Was in hard luck and gave Sandy an eigntn in a well they were drilling for six months wages they owed him. Sandy was hard up for the money, but he thought that was a pretty good gamble and accepted the proposition.

Tbe well had a long fishing job and Sandy, offered his interest in it to me and others for $100, but we didn't have the nerve to take it. The well came in big ana ne sola ms eigntn tor casn, after selling his share of the production for a month or six weeks for $10 a barrel. Sandy went to DuMin to visit his parents, fixed the old folks up in a nice little business and continued on a tour around the world. At Bombay he bought an elephant, without having any use for the beast, and it died the next day, Sandy said of colic. From that day he had no luck.

When he came home he went to speculating in stocks and was cleaned out in six months. He went back to driving team and he is still at it. Williamson firmly believes that the elephant 'hoodood' him and that if he hadn't bought it he would be a rich man to day." The Climate 'of Southern California. Iios Angeles Letter. i As far as the healthfulness of the climate is concerned, that is an old story.

There are no people here suffering with that dreadful destroyer, consumption. Any one who will come soon enough that is before the drainage has exhausted the system can find health here. The results in many cases that I have heard of since my coming are beyond belief. Major Caperton of Louisville, told me two years ago that this was, perhaps, the most wonderful country on the face of the earth for restoration of health, where the troubles come from consumption. I have reason to be grateful to Major Caperton for what he said to me and the advice he gave.

To those who feel a solicitude for the health of any. of their dear ones on account of lung troubles, I would say, accept the advice I did: Go to California; to Los Angeles, or San Diego, and let your suffering ones get well. This country is indeed to me the garden spot of this beautiful land of ours. The ever changing delights of the climate, the beautiful glow that is seen on cheeks that came here pale from malaria, or from what might have been feared from another and more dreadful cause to see these people grow strong daily, to see their strength come in so certain a way that you cannot mistake it, makes those of us who have come thank God there is a Southern California and a good friend to point you to it.

It was formerly called the Loyal Ladies' League, out is now known as tbe ladies oi ue G.

Last? night about 9 o'clock the City Oravs crave a drill on Market Street. Captain Maloney put his men througb all the particular attention rto line movements. Every command iwas executed with the alacrity that character izes this fine organization ot citizenjsol diers, and the throng which soon gathered along the sidewalks frequently) ap plauded the men as a particularly good wheel or formation was completed. Captain Maloney found tbe newly paved street a first rate place to drill and kept the men down to it for more than an hour. It would be a good thing for Captain Maloney to give an, exhibition drill and parade next Saturday afternoon on the occasion of the visit from the Mayor and city officials of Read ing.

A special meeting of Common Council was held last evening, when arrangements were made ior the reception of the Mayor and other officials from Reading on Sat urdav afternoon. This committee was appointed on the part of the lower branch Messrs. Houtz. of the Fourth: Fisher, of the Fifth; Fry, of the Second; Krause, of the Eighth; M'Crory, of the Seventh; Melvin, of the First; Schmidt, of the Third; Sourbeer, of the Sixth, and Zarker, of the Ninth ward. This even ing the committee will meet at the office ot Mr.

Houtz to adopt some programme for the entertainment of the visitors. A resolution was adopted limiting the invitations to the banquet to be given the visitors to the members of the committee, it being considered a too heavy expense to invite the whole Council. There was not a quorum of Select Council this afternoon, but President Smull aDDointed Messrs. Walters, M. Oleaster and Brandt, with Clerk M'Kee, to act with the committee from the other branch in arranging for the visit of the Heading A fj for gested the opening of two buildings for the recemion of those who desire to at tend night schools this winter.

Last evening Miss Annie Marshbank was at the Fager building to receive the female i applicants, anu oxiaa ureurge icucucu iuc men and boys at the DeWitt building. As soon as the doors were opened they began arriving, and when the doors closed the register at the Fager building showed thirty lemale applicants, ana at the. DeWitt huildiner flltv two males, with the names of others sent through' their friends. It is the intention or the Board to ouen the schools on the first Monday evening in November, which will be the 14th, previous to which time there will be another opportunity given ior others to register. It is quite probable that Miss Marshbank will have to assist Miss Georee in the DeWitt Duilding, which will necessitate the employment of another teacher for the Fager building.

THE GOOD WOKE DONE. One Hundred and debt Fish Dams Torn by tbe Sheriff. Since Sheriff Hummel and his deputies started in to tear out fish dams they have done good work. From Mahontonga to Conewago Falls they dismantled and effectually destroyed one hundred and eight fish dams, so that the owners cannot again use tnem. isnwaraen ii.rause and Constable Roat were the deputies, and they had a great deal to contend with.

They were once shot at, stones were frequently thrown at them. and if curses were of any potency they would long ere they finished have been buried under a mountain of anathema. This is a sort of work that every legiti mate fisherman wishes to see kept up every year until the fish piraie3 quit building fish dams. Granted a Divorce. A decree of divorce has been granted in the case of Amelia Loucks from her husband, Joseph Loucks.

Tne American People for Protection. New York Catholic Review. "Are you a free trader?" asked a Plattsburg man of Mr. George. "I am, absolutely," was the emphatic response.

That settles it, Mr. George. The American people are not freo traders at pres ent at least. Most, if not all, ot tuem are of the opinion that what is needed here is greater protection for our native eoods. products and producers than we even now enjoy.

The idea may be a mistaken one; but there it stands nevertheless; and he who is against it ia against the common sense and public opinion of the American people. PKEPA RATIONS FOR ANARCHIST DAT Arrangements for the Execution of tbe Condemned Seven. in I Preparations are already befne made in Chicago for the hanging of tbe seven condemned Anarchists on November 11th. Two regiments of the National Guard will be in readiness at their armories for a week before the execution in case tbey are needed. On the day of the hanging the entire Mock in which the county lal! is located will be cordoned with police, and no one will be allowed to witness tbe execution exct pt those that tne law re quires to be present and a few representatives of tbe press.

A marked gloom prevails among the condemned men with one exception, that of laughs and Jokes with those who call uron him. It is rumored that Governor Oglesby will grant them a brief respite to give tbem more time to prepare for death. Quite a sensation was caused yesterday among the Inmates of the women's department of the jail by. an official request that tbey neip make the shrouds and caps to be used at the execution of the condemned seven. Some tbe inmates were willing to do the work required, and were even anxious to participate in the ghastly task, but others were strongly ODoosed to ren dering any aid, and these formed so large a part of the inmates that it may be necessary to have tbe work done outside the jail.

THIS RKPDBLIOAN HOBOSCOPE, According to Mr. Christopher Magee. Hon. C. L.

Magee returned to Pitts burg yesterday from tbe East, where be has spent some time looking over the political situation. He says Pennsylvania is safe for the Republicans by the nsual majority, notwithstanding tbe disaffec tion of the liquor element, and in New York the Republicans are 'confident of victory. The labor element will hurt the Democrats more than the Republicans, but it will not be an important factor in the campaign. Colonel Grant is developing unexpected strength, and will probably run ahead of the ticket. Mr.

Magee thinks Blaine will be the Republican nominee for President, while Cleveland is the only man the Democrats seriously think of. i According to advices received herefrom prominent Republicans in various parts of the country, Mr. Magee's chances for succeeding B. F. Jones.

as chairman of the Republican National Committee are entirely favorable. Mr. Gladstone Happy The struggle ear ing ine Boa. Mr. Gladstone bos arrived at the Marquis of Ripon's residence.

He made several speeches cn route. In an address at Leeds he said, with reference to Ire land, that events were ripening weekly; mat the government policy in Ireland wai going from, bad to worse, and that the tide was flowing in powerful currents and more quickly than be hd ventured to hope, relieving him of the anxiety be formerly felt respecting the length of tbe struggle. A Coal Famine Imminent In Illlajla. On account of the scarcity of coal. caused by the strike of the coal miners in Illinois, the pnblic schools of Springfield were yesterday compelled to close.

The price of anthracite coal has advanced $1 per ton, and 100 per cent, advance in bituminous coal is oredicted. A few davs of cold weather will cause a shortage of fuel among private consumers, which will undoubtedly result in a vigorous howl. Louisville Preparing tor Moody, the Evangelist.

The building will be located on the vacant lot belonging to the South ern Baptist Theological bemmary on Broadway, and is expected to be ready for occupancy by January 1st, 1888, at which date Mr.

Moody is expected. Thanksgiving Dj Designated. The President of the United States yesterday issued a proclamation desig nating lnursday, Z4tn, as a day of National thanksgiving and prayer. Against Sunday Saloons. Albany Dispatch io the New York Tribune.

In more than half of tho churches in town to day sermons were preached against the efforts of the Personal Liberty party to compel candidates for the Ben ate and Assembly to pledge themselves to vote for a bill permitting the sale of liquor on Sunday from 2 p. M. until midnight. One of the strongest addresses was delivered by the Rev. Dr.

J. II. Esop. He declared that the saloon was trying to capture the Christian Sabbath, and it bad challenged the Church in tbe State without any entangling alliances with any political party or any other question.

Back of the Personal Liberty party were the Jrinkers and makers of liquor, the former desiring to satisfy at any lime their appetites; the latter desiring to capture the Christian Sunday, as more money was to be made on that day than any other. He urges his hearers to vote, as the time lor pray ing bad passed and action. wasdemanded. Governor Hill was present at St. Peter's Epicopai church, where the Rev.

Dr. Baltershall preached. The preacher aweit upon the importance ot preserving the Christian Sunday as an institution ol the State as well as religion, and con demned the attempt to open the doors of saioons on that day. A Cert locate ot Character. Figaro.

The editor of a Virginian paper in vin dicating tbe private character of a friend wno had been arrested for the crime of sheep stealing, defended him as follows: "We have known Mr. Thomas lor twelve years. Our acquaintance commenced with the equinoctial storm which blew down our grandfather's barn. At this time he was a young man in tbe prime of life, and, we think, raised the best mar rowfat peas that we ever ate. He was a good mathematician, kind to the poor ana irouoiea with fits.

In all tbe relations of husband, father, uncle and trustee of common lands he has followed the direct standard of duty. Mr. Thomas is at this time 43 years of age, slightly marked with the small pox, an estimable citizen, a church member and a man of known integrity for ten years. He doesn't know enough to steal sheep." The Wrong Place. Stranger in Kansas drug store I want to get 50 cents worth of calomel.

In speaking of this to a friend, said: "I'm to glad Bismarck got the money just at this time when he needs a good steady horse to ride. He always refused to bur one on the ground that be couldn't aQord it. But I told him to use tbe 3.000 marks tbe purpose. It comes in handy, doesn't It may be interesting to note, perhaps, that the Princess always uses tbe plain "Bismarck" when rrfcrtiog to brr husband in tbe company of friends. In Mexico tbey have special funeral cars over tne none car routes to the cemeteries.
