him dead. The laws of Nebraska
hold responsible the saloon keeper
who sold that young man the whisky
that poisoned him to death. That
law is not enforced as strictly as It
should be. If It was rigidly enforced,
and saloon keepers prosecuted for all
immediate dangers to life and prop
erty that occur by reason of their ne
farious business, no man would want
to be a saloon keeper, and no man
would go on the saloon keeper's

Eider Henry is holding a series
of meetings In the Christian church.
Come and hear him. It is a serious
thought to live, it is a serious matter
to die. And it is wise to make tbe
most and best of existence. And if
the bible teaches the best way to live,
and the best way to die, (and I believe
it does) then it is wise to be instruct
ed by it. Come and hear what Bro.
Henry lias to say of the way of salva
tion. He is an earnest man, of fine
talent and cultured thought.
On the 2Gth of November Elder
Young was 74 years old, and the time
was honored by the parsonage being
filled with his brethren, Bisters and
friends, and a very pleasant social
gathering it was. A very fine supper
was served ; it was in great abundance
and variety, and in great taste. Then
singing, exortations and prayers,
after good Methodist style. The
Methodists are a live people, and the
Methodist ladies know how to get up
a fine supper. The Elder is bowed
with the weight of many years and
much sickness, yet we trust he may
yet see many birth-days, and be
spared to show sinnerB the way of life
eternal in the Christ.
Sheriff" Black, of Brownville, at
tended worship in the Christian
church last Sunday.
Another grave has been dug in the
London burying ground, another
spirit has gone home, another body
reBts in the grave. Father Sedoras
has made his earth record and gone ;
he had his joys and sorrows, lila dis
appointments and triumphs, but the
perilous journey is over and he is
landed, we trust, safely on the other
Bide. He had been a great sufferer for
some years, but there is a land where
there is no sickness, nor sorrow, nor
pain, nor death, and we trust brother
Sedoras is in that lend. He was for
man3" years a member of the Christian
churoh, he may have had his trialR
and temptations at times which led
him out of the Christian path, but,
we trust he is in one of the mansions
in the Father's house. So we all are
going over the river of death. Soon
all of us will be gone. But where?
Let ns be wise and make preparation
of character, fit for one of those beau
tiful mansions.

First Edition. lOS.OOO.
So rapidly are orders increased for
the December Scribner that it is
thought the first edition of 108,000
will not supply the demand. One
cause of the recent Increase in circu
lation, by which one hundred thou
sand November numbers were sold
In two weeks, is undoubtedly due to
tbe growing interest in the two seri
als, Henr James, Jr. 's "Confidence,"
which is one of the most fascinating
character studies, and George W. Ca
ble's novel of New Orleans life, "The
Grandissimes." The latter, begun in
November, will be the leading serial
story of the year. Mr. Cable's "Old
Creole Days" has attracted wide at
tention, and this, Ills first novel,
promises to be among the strongest
and most important works of fiction
that have yet appeared In American
literature. A new serial story by Mrs..
Burnett, author of "That Lass o'
Lowrie's,' has also been secured and
will begin In an early number. The
special attractions of the December
number include twenty poems by
American women, comprising verse
by many of our most prominent wo
men writers ; "Two Visits to Victor
Hugo," ty H. H. Boyesen, with a
large portrait engraved by Cole; an
illustrated description of the Johns
Hopkins University, and an interest
ing paper by Burroughs on "Nature
and the Poets." "The New Capitol
at Albauj"" Is critical described in
an articlejof eighteen pages, with the
aid of twenty-three drawings, and
there are illustrated papers on "Coffee
Culture in Brazil," "Success with
Small Fruits," etc., etc.
"The Reign of Peter the Great," by
Euqene Schuyler, will begin in the
February number. The illustrations
for the first of this splendid series of
Historical Papers are now almost com
pleted, and include reproductions of
famous Russian paintings, cut on
wood by Americau engravers, who
are pronounced by the London Snt
arduy Bcvicw "the best in the world."
Sold, and subscriptions received, by
book-sellers and news-denlers, at
$4 00 a year, 35 cents a number. "A
Portfolio of Proof Impresions," of
the best enqrnvlnc from thp pacs of

ited to 3.000) will be ready about De
