GsAvas, Chief. TO THE PUS LIC. The Ladies of the G. A. R. is an in dependent organization, answerable to no other order; its membership, being limited to mothers, wives, sisters-and daughters of honorably 'discharged boI diers, sailors and marines of the late rebellion; an exclusive soldiers' organi zation. & ' It is not true that the local Circle as sumed the name of the local Post. They voted to take the name of that patriot statesman, Stephen A. Douglas, and everyone with a modicum of brains, will concede theirrigbt to do so." What a spectaclel A church member, a class leader, commander of a Grand Army Post who slurs the 'nearest relatives'of his comrades; worse, the widows and orphans of dead coairades,whom he obli gated himself to aid and assist. Lastly, we want the public to under stand that we are not auxiliary to the G. A. K. aud do not desire to be, as Past Dept. President Mrs Hunter says: "It would inieedbea'sad'state bt affttira to ba auxiliary to one's own." Mrs. Kohakna Klein, President, S. A. Douglas Circle No. 20, It. of G. A. R. Mary H. Ciakk, Secretary. Massachusetts republicans,, in state convention, uttered a practical formula tion of the Monroe doctrine in these words: "We believe that this hemi sphere is no longer a subject for Europ ean colonization, or aggressive and oppressive occupation; that the Monroe doctrine is a true guide for American statesmanship, and should be maintained toward small nations without blustering toward great nations without cringing, but always deliberately, temperately, resoiutely." Small nations without blustering, great nations without cring ing. A safe and gentlemanly principle toward all the world. Rev.Dr.Talmage has had a spectacu lar career, a path lit with burning churches, diversified with the experi ences of the rostrum and worldwide travel, and .finally watered with .tbe.tears. of old parishioners who part from him probably forever. Now he goes to Wash ington to sustain a superannuate, and gradually come to full sway in his pulpit. A preacher who combines the instincts of the actor with the gifts of the preacher will become a criticised man. Happy he if his versatility do. not make as many critics as admirers. Dr. Talmage has the good wishes of many friends as he essays this new field in an eventful and useful career. Inter Ocean. Alarmed by the growing frequency and boldnpss of train robberies, the officials of the Chicago & Northwestern railway have determined to take away from temptation of the Jesse James species of highwaymen one of the most luring prizes carried out over the iron rails through the west. They have abandoned and banished the monthly pay car. From this time henceforth ibis old-time institution will be a thing only of memory to" the thousands of Northwestern employes who have await ed its coming every thirty days all along the lines beeween Chicago and Omaha, Sioux City or St. Paul. Beginning with the current month the Northwestern company pays its rolls by checks od Cnicago banks instead of in currency and gold as heretofore. This change marks the passing of the pay car, and is a staggering blow to the profession ot train, robbery. Two men went out to look for work, one fine September day; one held a cor ner down, in town, and talked the hours away. He talked with sages like him self about the country's woes, and with a sort of pride he viewed his old and- ragged clothes. He doubtless thought that work would come, and beg on bended knees, that he would go and take a job at herding bumble bees. For days and weeks he stood around, and talked of woes and wrong, and squinted round to look for work, which did not come along. When wintery blizzards came along and froze the beard of man, he had no woodpile m the shed, no coal oil in the can; he'd no tobacco in his box, or money in the bank; the county had to give him stuff to fill his aching tank. The other man who hunted work went hunting with a will; he said: I'll jump at any job, and try and fill the bill; I'll quarry rock or chop down trees, like other toiling gents; if I can't make a V a day, I'll work for fifty cents. When winter came ho sat at ease before hia blazing hearth; he owned a pleasant home, although he didn't own the earth. Walt Mason. Dr. A. P. Sawyer Sir: After Buffering four years with female weakness I was persaaded by a frlead to try your Pastilles, sad after using tbem for one year, I caa say I am entirely well .

PASTOR GIBSON TUB NEXT WITNES8. Sensational I'lisae of the Dnrrant Trial la Looked For. San Fbancisco, Oct. 3. Ifc is expect ed that the defense in the Dnrrant case will take up the matter of handwriting on the wrapper in which Blanche La mont's rings were sent to Mrs. Noble as soon as the witnesses from Cooper Med- ical college aro disposed of. The exam ination or line remaining it stuaenis will probably consume this morning's session of court, and then the evidence calculated to cast suspicion upon Dr. Gibson will most likely bo introduced by the defense. A subpoena was is sued yesterday for Dr. Gibson's appear ance in court today, bat up to a late hour last night; he had not been served. He was expected to be on hand when he is wanted this afternoon.
