Miss Willard went to Cincinnati June 20, for attendance upon the prohibition convention which met in that city June 29 and 30. She presided over a mass temperance meeting Sunday afternoon in Cen tral Music hall, which holds ten thousand people. This convention had 1,191 accredited delegates, the largest number of any national political convention held in the United States this 3rear. - The last -vestige of the state debt of Iowa has recently been liqui dated. Iowa, it will be remem bered, is a prohibition state. Out of 2,700 Congregational min isters in Kngland and Wales, at least 1,000 are abstainers; of 361 students, 320 are abstainers. THE PROHIBITION CONVENTION. The national convention of the prohibition party met at Cincinnati last wjek, Represei ta'ion in this convention is based on the vote polled by the party in the different states instead of on the number of congressmen and senators apian which it is proposed shall be adopt ed hereafter by republican conven tions. The number of delegates in the. prohibition convention, if all attend, will be 1,091, and it is expect ed th.it everybody who has a right to a seat will be present. This will be the sixth convention national, state, district and county and would make any amount of helpful sentiment. If this sugges tion strikes our members favorably they will, of course, feel perfectly tree to act upon it. REVEILLE. Fly, poppied drowse, away! Across the marshes sweep.

The cavalier places hia partner In front of him, facing her, and while the band keeps playing and the company singing one of those peculiarly stirring Wendish dance tunes he sets about adjuring her to grant him his desire and dance with him. She stands stock still, her arms hanging down flop by her side. The cavalier capers about, shouts, strikes his hands against his thighs, kneels, touches his heart with the more dra matic force the better. At length the lady gives way, and in token of consent raises her hand. Briskly do the two 6pin around now for the space of eight bars, after which for eight more they perform sometliing like a cross between a chassez croisez and a jig, and so on for a little while, after which the whole company joins in the same performance. As a finish th& cavalier "stands" the band and his part ner some liquor, and a merry round dance concludes his turn of leading to the accompaniment of a tune and song. roncka, selected by himself.

In the five presidential elections the vote of the party was as follows: 1872 5,207 1870 9,737 1880 9,078 1884 150,620 1888 249,945 This shows a considerable growth in the prohibition vote during the past twelve years, though not so great as the party expected. The two chief prizes of North western university, Evanstou (which had in all departments over two thousand, three hundred stu dents this year), are the Kirk prize for oratory, and the Bragdon prize for general scholarship. Both were taken by young women Misses Nettie J. Hunt and Cora Monuier Rawlins. Mrs. Potter Pal mer and our World's and National W. C. T.

Half a million persons, it is said are, m one way or another, employed on the Sabbath in connection with the drink traffic, and 200,000 of these are young people. "The saloon is not an American institution; ninety per cent of the saloon keepers are foreigners; there is a growing prejudice in em ploying, sober men even to attend bars. It is absurd that a man can- A -1 -a not uraw up a legal contract on Sunday, while the saloon keeper is permitted to open and pursue his business.

"How can you talk so. mamma?" re plied Maud, looking down and blushing a. iew lines or solid nonrareil. "It is true that Sir Croesus is rich and Harry is not; but then Harry is young and Sir Croesus-is 'old.

A useful appliance has been intro duced in hospitals in the shape of a com press heater and sterilizer. There is no moistening or wringing of hot cloths necessary. It does away with the use of oiled silk or cotton, as it cannot wet bed clothes and will retain heat longer than the ordinary compress, and the com presses may be applied to different pa tients without washing, as they may be easily sterilized and freed entirely from germs.

To the question, "What is electricity?" which is often asked, no absolute and satisfactory answer has yet been found. Notwithstanding the wonderful develop ment of electrical applications, elec tricians are still feeling their way as to the nature and many of the principles of the operation of the mighty force that they are learning to control. This was suggestively shown by a remark made by the vice president of the American institute of electrical engineers at the annual convention of that body. The speaker claimed that the present theories of electricity should be regard ed merely as stepping stones to more comprehensive and satisfactory ones. He contended that modern theories of electrical phenomena, if adopted as an absolute framework of all our knowl edge of these subjects, may, in a few years, become prison bars that will pre vent the mind from making a free and unprejudiced investigation of new theo ries and new phenomena, and giving due weight and significance in the gen eral science of electricity to the results obtained by the most recent experiment ers.
