WHAT IT AIMS AT.
Secretary Bayard is now on a visit
to some of the Western States and at
several points where he stopped a day
or so was received with the greatest
cordiality; At St.-" Louis.: they gave-
him a grand reception in the halTtf
the board of trade where prominent
citizens of all nationalities-: and ' all
parties participated -t .this rec :p
tion he was called upon- for a spcb
to which he responded by-paying a
glowing tribute to the .'Mississippi
Valley, with its grand enterprises and
millions of thriving, indiTstrions and
energetic people, which, was no long"
er to take a second or third place in
the thoughts of the men who shaped
the policy "of the government, and.
made its laws, but the first;; -
Last Monday night, in Lawrence,
Kansas, he was tendered . a grand
banquet by the prominent citizens
regardless of party, and t here alsct he
made a speech in the same frein aa hia
St. Louis speech, in " which: he went
on to say that all the energies of the
present 'administration would bo de
voted to the betterment of the condi
tion of the l whole country ,in other
words that it was to be a practical,
business like ' administration to I be
governed by such.v.polirjjf 'as' would
promote the besliliterests., jof ,tUe.
American people, aS apeopley Ko?
East, South and West. The trouble
heretofore for the past quarter of a
century has been that .the policy, ot
the government has been shaped to
'foster the interests of certain sections
and certain.industries, regardless of
other sections and other industries,
and asa consequence our statute
books are filled vyith tariff and reve-
nue laws," local "and sectional in their
character, unfair : in their operation
and injurious in their results.; -The
product of one section. has been pro
tected by exorbitant;, tariff rates, the
products ot another section subjected
to excessive taxation. : Th products
of the South and West," for instance,
until very recently have derived but
little protection from "-federal legisla--tion,
while the products-of their stills
and tobacco. manufactures were enor
mously taxed. -There has been with
time some improvement in this re'
speet'in the reduction of "the tax and
in the repeal of some of the most
odious features of the revenue Jaws,
but there is still jnoom .for.Hmprove
ment. , The tariff 'question, the gold
and silver tiuestion, the questipn'of
opening -and improving . the great
water highways of commerce, our
merchant: marine, "trade - relations
with South . American countries, the
jstatus of the American citizen abroad,
the question of education and others
bf greater or less importance will all
become interesting topics of 'discus
sion in which' the present administra
tion will be required to put itself upon
record aod which will give it plenty
to think about after it has finished up
t,he preliminary , work, of clearing off
the barnacles.
f JThere is big . work, ; but' there are
splendid opportunities before "this
administration, a fact which" 'the

; People with very large noses may
be interested to learn that an English
doctbj- claims to have discovered a
method of reducing that organ. The
process' which" he . calls ''multiple
punctiform scarification," consists in
rapidly -.pricking the nose with a
number of minute double -edged steel
blades fixed in a handle. ' - From 500
to.3.000 punctures are made at a sit
ting, and the. operation is performed
every week or twa for some months;
meanwhile the organ is kept well
annointed. At first sight the opera
tion does not seem -attractive, . but

UEKCIIEU ON THE BiULE.
The Uociriac ot Divine Inspiration.
Every seat in Plymouth Church
.was filled last Sunday and hundreds
of people stood m the galleries and
blocked the-doors , to hear Henry
Ward Baecher's third sermon; of the
series on "Evolution Considered in
Its Relations to Religiou." Mr.
Beeeher beean bv savinar that the
sacred Scriptures have had -and still
have a relation to the tighest
mdral consciousness and . to
the profoundest religious expression
of the best men. "The divine? revelar
tion," he continued, "interpreted by
evolution will, in my judgment, free
the sacred Scriptures irom fictitious
claims made by man and from clouds
of misconception. . The - Bible has
been-held in-captivity by a false and
unwarranted theory of inspiration
which against a thousand obstacles
well nitrh turns commentators into
intellectual dishonesty. Men have-
exerted their - ingenuity and - have
indulged in all forms of reasoning for
the sake of maintaining wnac tney
believed to be the word of God. The
Bible has a, value and its history has
a certain 'value, but much'-!WhiCh
may have been necessary for its' pro-?
duction ceases, to be needful 'Y our
faith in the way it has been produced.
No wheat- can grow without.; the
straw, but when the straw has
brought it forth both straw and stubble;-
perish. The wheat does .; not
mean that the Bible will be distroyed
for sooner will you pluck .the stars
out of heaven than ono - star tout of
that divine book."- x
PLEXARY INSPIRATION SET ASIDE,
V Science, Mr. ' Beeeher. continued,
had forced certain modifications of
statements in . the Bible. Changes
bad been made in the book and
Lchanges' would be make again : But
it anachronisms ana dates nan Deen
Changed the finely developedtfruit of
the spirit recorded in the book could
iot be changed. God and humanity
iwould be the same. The theory of
plenary inspiration had already been
set aside ."No honest man," he con
tinuedj' "in - making - himself thor
oughly familiar with the Word of
God and - - believing - that the boo k
was spoken by God directly as man
speaks to-man' and that Jevery : word
in it is .divinelyand directly author
ized can, .if he be consistent, keep
himself from going head first into
the gulf of infidelity. If he don't go
there it is because he is too stupid.
The ingenious efforts of men to - re
concile facts with f fiction would
eease if the false and .vicious I theory
of verbal and plenary inspiration was
abandoned : There is uo definition
in Scripture Of inspiration. The way
in which the Bible was , inspired is
not stated- ' There is a theor of - iu-.
spiratibn that not only safes the
book by reconciling it with tlie other
revelations of Goi; in natiie, but
which frees it from a thousand criti
cisms and objections, . That that
the Bible is the r history thei record
in part of what the effect ojf God's
spirit moving in human conscious
ness has brought to ' pass along : the
line of our-national history It is
the,record.of that universal and conv
tin uoos action of the Divine mind
on humart. consci-ausnesa tbat has
raised man from the lower "depths
step by . step, unfolding moralities,'
unfuldme all laws of social. life, uns
folding all "reason, all treasures1 of
moral nature aud all spirituality.
THE BIBLE'S HEAL CHABACTEa.
i v'lt is the human race thatf has
been iaspired. The Bible and every
part of it was lived first and the rec-
ord made of it after ward,,, while -the
race was at its lower -stages. Some
proof of experience would now and
then become so wide-spread that . a
man of large nature feeling the im
pulse of Divine ; inspiration was able
to give it out as a truth. It had
never before been put in regular form
or 8pokn, but it . was -found ; to be
something really authoritative before
he declared it. And so the Word of
God is the record along one line of a
grand experiment, namely the de
velopment of man from the lowest
point of human ; existence, a -. book
which : undertakes to register the
stages through which man has pass
d. It may be an inspired book and
a book of God. " , w
"Monosomt was tried.s afterwards
commanded, but if the Bible is the
.Word of God, according to the-' old
theoryof plenary direct ; inspiration,
why then Mormonisn is right. This
is its stronghold to-day. Its adher
ents believe in the Old -Testament..
They believe in it like thunder." . Mor
moniatn cannot be rwrong :if; God
taught it in his Book ' Slavery,- too,
mu8t. be right if God is the direct
author Of the Bible " .
; In- conclusion Mr. Beeeher said:
'The doing away with the attempt
to engraft upon God's government
things which we know to have sprung
from the . weakness of humanity,
though the record Of them is modern,
the Bible would take away the very
weapons of infidelity tomorrow.".

" ."Since ray boyhood," said Mr.. .Wil
liam H: Vanderbilt, "I have been ac
customed to plain, wholesome . livs
ins,- To mv style of living and reeu
lar habits I attribute my uniformly
eood health. I have my ills and
aches like other men, but I am free
from spells of sickness. I have tried
to think if there was one thing that
suited mv palate more than another.
I do not .believe there-is..; My appe-
tite, as a rule, keeps ; so good that 1
can eat one thing with quite as much
relish as another. I was brought up
on a farm, you know, and I must
confess an honest , liking for- good
roost beef and roast mutton. I do
not like either too well done or - too
rare, ; for I believe in . either state
they are indigestible. I want them
brown. , rich ; and juicy, and ?with
them I like to have served potatoes,
white and floury. Above alt I desire
my food prepared and served plainly.
Grease, spices and rich flavored con
diments are not suited to me, and I
do not believe they are to any per-
.son. 1 have an idea - or my own in
this respect, and I am convinced it is
correct. It is that accustoming one's
self to spiced gravies and relishes
and other things that taste horribly
at first is simply the cultivation of a
vitiated taste.' I have observed the
absence of clear - complexions and
bright, sparkling eyes in persons ac
customed to -high living. The rosy
color and clear eyes and .buoyant
spirits of persons who live plainly,
but well withal,, convinces me that
the simple, bountiful way of living is
the best." . - - :
- Mr. Vanderbilt talked of his mode
of life with as much interest as he
ever talked of money, stocks 'or rail
roads. It is true that -Mr. Vander
bilt olives- in magnificence, but he
lives sensibly He calculates to re
tire at 10 o'clock at night, and he
rarely misses going to bed at that
time. He is called at 7:30. in - the
morning, and at 8:30 is at breakfast
with his whole family. He usually
spends the morning at home. - Some
times he goes out before lunch and
sometimes - not : until after lunch.
When the weather - will admit he
goes out for a drive in the afternoon.
Tne drive may be through . the park,
it may be to Macomb's Dam bridge,
or it may extend to Fleetwood Tark.
When Mr. Vanderbilt returns from
it ,he lies down in- his library for a
uap, which lasts until the dinner
hour. He arises refreshed and sits
down to bis evening meal as much to
enjoy the conversation with his
family, which is an extremely pleas
ant one, as to partake of the viands
before him.? Mr.-Vanderbilt always
eats sparingly, and avoids liquids as
much as possible. He takes his coffee
sometimes after his' dinner. '. Some
times, however, he does not drink it
at all. . - ' "
i Mr. Vanderbilt is an extremely ab
stemious man in every way: - He nev
er uses liqupr in any, form. If he is
in company where he is compelled to
take wine, he will simply raise the
glass to his lips. In the first place he
has no taste- for"' liquor, and in the
second place" his "physical .composi
tion will not admit of indulgence in
any form. On account of a slight af
fection of the muscles of his face per
sons not familiar ? with his " habits
might think that he allowed himself
to gratify a taste for- wine It is not
so." When he requires a beverage he
calls for lemonade, : and - he likes to
have the lomon juice fresh-. pressed
from the fruit.". He used to be ad
dicted to the use of tobacco, but for
thirty years has . not - touched l he
weed. Mr. Vanderbilt is extremely
careful of his health, and looks to his
eating as nuch as any thing else to
"keep it goM. ' : ' ; ,

Washington Correspondence N. Y. World.
In the Postoffice Department' they
have some, new rules which are not
very pleasing to the members of Con
gress who are in a hurry to transact
their business. Yesterday a prominent
Democratic, member called in the
office of the Appointment Clerk to
ask him who was the postmaster in
a certain Western town.- He was in
formed that the.; information could
not be given- him. It was contrary
to the orders of the Postmaster Gen--eral.
; " Wbat," said he, "can't 1 you
tell- me what is the name of a post
master in a: certain place?" - "No,
sir," said : the ? Appointment Clerk.
WiH you kindly give me a list of
the postmasters of this country?"
'Certainly," was the reply. ''Can
you - tell : me what the difference is
between giving me this list and your
kindly saving me the trouble of
hunting through it to'find out what
I want?" The clerk replied that he
was simply obeying ' orders. . The
member then looked through the list
and finding what he wanted per
fected the papers of an applicant for
the- very place. - He then sought to
file these papers .with the Appoint
ment Clei k. '"You i can't file them
hero," said .the- clerkf "Why-not?"
said he. "Aren't" you" the Appoint
ment Clerk? ' "It is against orders,"
was the reply. "Where can I filo
them?", The .clerk designated a cer
tain room down at the'en iof the cor
rldor, -vThe exasperated member,
walked -down there and found La
colored man behind a small hole m a
huge iron grating. Hedfecovered that
the only way- that be could file his
papers was to poke them through
this hold at tho Colored man. . It is
needless to say that he used very vio
lent language in denouncing this new
form of red tape. , ,
Rnpid Growth of a Territorial Towu.
On the first day of January, 1885,':
there was only one building on the
site of North. Yakima, . Washington
Territory. There are now-between
1,000 and 1,200 people and 243 dwells
ing and business houses .There are
.under construction fourteen preten
tious biiildingp, including six two story
structures. Roads have ; been built
in all directions radiating from the
place ; 20 miles of irrigating trenches
dug to supply the town: with . water;
4,00G shade trees planted; three miles
of sidewalk laid ; street lamps erected
on all the principal business avtnues,
and with all this work the town has
no charter and no government Qther

that, although the physicians do not
aay so, tne proprietary medicine bus
iness is what they really "wish -to

doctors that their charges for visits
are extortionately high, and that in
order to postpone the inevitable re
duction they "have resorted to the de
vice of throwing in the medicines
gratis. ' The accusation is also made
that the allopaths are being crowded
by the homeopaths, and are adopting
in a craven manner, the very meth
ods of the schools which they affect to
