Sau Francisco Chronicle.
Bewitching Spanish senoritas from
the Southern counties, intoxicated at
the graceful way in which the Major
was bumped around the circle in
which he was riding the race, un
clasped the massy bracelets from their
shapely olive arms, or drew their
flashing diamonds from their shapely
fingers, or snatched their little tickers
from their zones pulsating with the
passion of the hour, and put them up
on the bucking coursers and their gal
lant riders, and most unfortunately
lost them. Two handsome sisters, the
Misses Dunlap, staked $500 and a gold
watch. But the pinnacle of excite
ment was reached when in the thirty
second mile Major Jose Ramon Pico
overhauled and passed John Smith.
Then it was that the fervent and ad
miring Senora Pico whipped out her
gold repeater and $500 of the current
coin of the realm and put them up on
the faithless fliers. The Major won
$1,800 in money, a splendid gold stop
watch, and ten mustangs that didn't
win a race.
Tltc Value of (be Press.
From Col. W. F. Saunders' Address
at the Press Convention:
"No man more highly appreciates
than I do the power, both for good
and evil, of the press. Whether as a
mere reflector of public opinion, or in
its higher sphere, as its guide and
educator, its nower is scarcely with
out limit. It is all important then
for the State and her citizens that
this power should be rightly directed.
For its efficient exercise it is important
that the conductors of the press, so
far as in the nature of things it may
be possible, should act together. Nor
do I hesitate to say that they should
learn to work together for the good
of their own order,and this not merely
from selfish motives, nor purely from
pecuniary consideration, nor even for
political promotion, but for the reason
that a State can have no better foun
dation for its prosperity and its citi
zens no better guarantee for their
liberties than an intelligent, vigilant,
bold and honest spoken public press.
With these views of the excellent
mission of journalism, and of its power
for good and for evil, it is needless to
say that I feel a corresponding sense
of the weight of responsibility arising
from the possession of that power.
Indeed the responsibility when duly
considered as one to be answerable
for both here and hereafter, both
temporally and eternally, is a peace
ful one. We must remember that
while the political teacher and the
religious reach only three hundred
we reach one thousand. If, then, we
propagate crime, we do it upon no
insignificant scale. It is incumbent
upon us, therefore, to do something
more than to magnify our calling in
a word, that we should fit ourselves
for it.
Let it then be henceforth the study
of Our lives to make ourselves better
editors, and in doing so make our
selves better citizens, better men and
better Christians.
Baldwin Interpretation of Ezeklel.
Some one has copied from "Arma
geddon," -the wonderful book of Rev.
Mr. Baldwin, of Tennessee, that ap
peared twenty-five years or more ago,
thfe following concerning one of
Ezekiel's unfulfilled prophesies:
1'The Kings of the South shall push
nr butt at him, and the King of the
North shall come against him like a
whirlwind, with chariots and with
many ships.'" Russia is the power
which the King of the South is to
"push." The King of the South is
Turkey, on the south of Russia, and
the King of the North is Great Britain.
This- is evident, he says, from its
northern position as a great power,
and from the immense naval, as well
as land forces, it possesses. He says
the attack of England, or Great
Britain, on Russia is to be great and
furious; but finally unsuccessful; for
Russia will move right on and more
than gain her purpose. She will
conquer Asia Minor and the Turkish
empire generally, and will advance
on Palestine, and "shall have power
over treasures of gold and silver, and
over all the precious things of Egypt.
While engaged in these conquests,
"rirlincs out of the East and out of
the North shall trouble him." The
tidings from the East and the North
may be the news of the disaffections
of the papal power on account of the
superiority which Russia gives to the
Greek church, and on account of holy
places in Judea. The word tidings
seems also, he says, to indicate great
insurrections. He is positive that the
Russian empire has two great works
to do; the first is to destroy the Roman
church in Europe, and the other to
attack the United States. He also
states in his book that before the war
begins for the conquest and annihila
tion of Turkey, the French people
would establish a republic and assist
the United States at the time Russia
makes the attack. According to this
writer the present war in Europe will
become general, and be the most
fearful the world has ever, witnessed,
and is to take place before the 117th
day of the year 1878.
The mother of the Spnrgeona.
Rev. Dr. S. J. Ford, of St. Louis,
thus writes of his visit to the Stock
well Orphanage, London: "There
were five Spurgeons present, and all
said a feAV words. The father John
Spurgeon, his two sons, J . A. Spur

Sf Charles H., Masters Thomas and

and felt that I was neglecting the

Breato of Promise Case.
Curiosity of law suits for breach
of matrimqiial promises: In Boston,
a girl was eigaged to a man who jilt
ed her. Tfs was ten years ago. She
married somebody else. Recently she
became a widow, and now she sues
the original suitor because he will
not keep the old promise. In Minne
apolis, a man is the complainant. He
declares that his pocket and his feel
ings have suffered an injury equal to
$10,000 by the refusal of a wealthy
widow to marry him. She promised
to do so, and he gave up his business
of liquor selling to please her, thus
causing his bankruptcy. In Montreal,
a woman of forty failed to secure a
verdict against a boy of eighteen. He
proved that he had never meant nor
promised to marry her, but had re
garded her rather in the light of a
motherly adviser.
nerves that Quiver,
Heads that ache, stomachs that inflict dyspeptic tor
ments, muscles and joints racked with the rheuma
tism, are infallibly restored to health by the cele
brated elixir, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a medi
cine prescribed by physicians, possessing Infinite
purity, and which no one takes in vain who is afflic
ted with any of the numerous complaints to which
it is adapted . It frequently happens that so-called
remedies fail to produce a permanent effect. This
is because they are merely palliatives, and therefore
do not remove the cause of the maladies, whose
symptoms they after a time cease to ameliorate.
This is notably the case with opiates and Bedative
drugs. It is not eo, however, with Hostetter's Bit
ters, which are a searching specific thut conquers
the disease as well as banishes its indicia.
