Few lodges arc so bud but what
they can be reclaimed by tho bet

themselves the "better element"
are prevented from doing this, by
some petty personal matter, show a
narrowness of mind and lack of
devotion to Odd Fellowship, which
is not excusable. These are plain

your weakness, call other g'd men
to your assistance, meet a bad
situation manfully, and save your
lodge.
Chairman Jones' Estimate.
"If we carry South Dakota, Ne-brai-ka
and Kentucky wo shall be
within ten votes of an electoral
majority, without having a single
vote East of Nebrai-ka or North of
tho Potomac river. That, yon see,
does not include Minnesota, Iowa
or Illinois.
"I regard Illinois and Kentucky
as doubtful States, but I think that
wo will havo a very comfortable
ma jority in Indiana. The reports
from Wisconsin and Iowa sh w that
wo are in better sh:io there than I
supposed. MichigMi, I think, is
safe, and I have stri ng hopes that
we will carry Ohio. Voii can see
tint with the States West ot Ne
bra.sk and South of tho Potomac
already assured to us, we are bound
to carry enough electoral votes in
the central battle ground to win."

Big Check From a Gold Miner,
A dispatch from New York, of
lat Thursday, says : Treasurer St.
John, of the Democratic National
committee, yesterday announced
that he had received a $ 10,0im) con
tribution from a gold mine owner,
lie declined to give thecontributor's
name, hut made public his letter,
which follows :
"I take great pleaciire in inclosing
yon a New Vork draft for $10,000
for campaign purposes. This money
was taken from mother earth, -aud
not from individuals. 1 hae ticen
represented by tho Eastern press
as a silver miner. I have not a
dollar invested in that class of prop
erty. I am a gold miner, and mskc
this contribution, not for tho lame
nt of the silver miner, but for the
benefit ot the toiling masses and the
country at hrgc."

A Strange Phenomenon.
Those who were npcarlv in States
ville last Wednesday morning wit
nessed a strange phenomenon in tho
heavens, says the landmark. 11c
tween four and six o'clock that
morning a light appeared in the
west and southwest and grew
brighter and brightcruntil the whole
heavens were alight, making- it al
most as bright as day. Some per
sons were aroused by it, thinking
there was a tire. To tky assumed
various colors, and the light
gradually spread over tho whole
leavcns.iMving them the appearance
of !ii ass. Then it passed away and
y the time the heavens assumed
their normal aspect a shower of
rain came.
Those who witnessed the sei ne
were very much impressed by it and
some of the superstitious were
alarmed. If it had been generally
known that ednesday was tho day
ai'pointcd by a religious sect in New
oik lor the end ot tho world tho
alarm would probably have been
general.
What Is It ?
llailroad men aro naturally super
stitioiis, and for the past several
wt'ks they have had great cause to
be, especially the freight men.
At the deep cut half a mile below
the deKtt at Concord some kind ot
an animal resembling a cat jumpi
from the embankment on to the
cars and runs up and down the en
tire length of tho train. The
at ranged part ot the myt-terious per
formance is that it cannot bo seen
on any but southbound trains.
When (he train reaches the section
house, two miles down the road the
thing vanishes away. The Standard
says railroad men rcgnrd it as an
omen that bids evil end that while
the strange appearance and d it-appearance
i interesting to watch, it
puts a most dreadful pc!l npon the
men who have seen it.

TOM DIXON'S CONGREGATION BECOMES
A BODY OF PARTISANS.
llev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., preach
ed a sensational sermon at the Acad
omv ot Musis yesterday morning on
"The Political Crisis." IIo said
many unkind things of William Jen
nings Ilryan, tho Democratic party
and tho freo silver movement. In
doing so he stirred up a hornet's
nest, and created a scene in which
cheers and hisses were about equally
mingled.
Professor Edwin V. Wright, who
founded tho Anti-Monopoly Lcuguu
and tho I'imetallic Association, wan
in tho audience. IIo hail just re
turned from a stumping tour for
silver with Georgo I'red Williams,
through New England, lie listened
ipiietiy to Mr. Dixon's excoriation
until tho Republican party stood
for all that was good and pure,
while tho Democratic party was
tho champion of all that was thu
absolute reverse. I hen Prof. V right
jumped to his feet, shook his lit at
tho jMHtor and exclaimed :
"What yon say is false, absolute
ly fuiso. Von don't know whit
you'io taiking about."
All were dismayed for a moment,
ami then a shout of applause arose,
followed by a ntorm of hisses.
Thu Rev. Mr. Dixon hadn't ex
pected all this, and it took him sev
eral minutes to discover his own
location. Then ho proceeded calm
ly with his dissertation. He com
plimented tho Populists, and said tho
Pooplo's party had been much
maligned.
"fho Democratic party was in
hell," said he, "when it pulled itself
together by tieing to tho Populists
in the Chicago convention. Don t
you believo that all Populists are
ignorant. The leaders of the party
aro nven of brains and ot education.
And they arc tine-looking men, too.
Many of them aro handsomer even
than Theodore Roosevelt."
This, of course, scored a laugh,
and Mr. Dixon continued:
"Ii such a crises as now confronts
us, it is the duty of every patriotic
citizen to vote the straight Republi
can ticket. I voted tor Mr. Cleve
land, and now, licfure God, I ac
knowledge my sin."
1 in going to oto for Lryan,
some ono ehouted; "and"
"Here, too, came from another.
However, Mr. Dixon was not
taking a straw vote, so he paid no
attention to the interruptions.
"Tho proposition ot Mr. lJryan
and his party," said he, "to pay oil
tho bonds ot tho United States, on
which 100 cents on the dollar were
raised, in coin worth only 5-'l cents
on the dollar, is dow nright rascality.
It is nothing nmro nor less than
bunco-steering."
"I won t stand this any longer.
said a patiiarchial looking gentle
man with a long flowing white beard,
and he left the building. Fully one
hundred others followed. Ihen Mr.
Dixon scored Mr. Ilryan for advo
cating a policy which, he said, would
permit insurance companies to pay
widows and orphans in depreciated
coin. He predicted disaster in case
of lirvan's election, anil said thst
fully 2,000,010 men would be im
mediately thrown out of work. Every
one to wFiom a dollar was duo would
get only 53 cents.
"It is not true, shouted James 1.
Madden. Then there was more ap-
plause, and morehisses. Mr. Madden
went to the speaker, gave him his
card, and lett the place, followed by
manv more.
After the discourse Prof. Wiight
declarod his intention of challeng
ing the reverencd gentleman to a
debate on the silver question.
"1 havo always held -Mr. Dixon,
said Prof. Wright, "in the highest
esteem, but his talk yesterday was
irrational and inhaman. 1 ho only
explanation, to my mind, is that he
has been nannaizea.
James T. Madden is a lawyer,
ith offices at No. 70 Montgomery
street, Jersey City, and was at one
timo a practising physician.
"1 did not go to the servico with
any idea of creating a scene," said
. i . i . r f '
he. "1 had read mat .ur. tnxon
was to sjtcak on tho financial crea
tion, and I decided to go. Two
friends ot mine who live in Jersey
City went with me.
"I am a ociievcr in silver, out i
want to hear what its opponents
have to say.
"At hrst Lr. Dixon s arguments
were much what I had expected. He
wen, through the usual list. Hut af
ter a little he became so bitter, and,
as it seemed to me, so prejudiced
and illogical, that 1 became greatly
excited, and when he said that if
Rrysu wereelec'ea every man would
get only 53 rents for every f 1 due
him. 1 jumped np and snouted:
" "it s not true
"Of course, thtro was a great deal
of excitement. There wasagood deal
of applause, too. Dr. Dixon stopped
speaking, and after ft moment's
hesitation said that if I would send
him mv card he would rive me any
satisfaction I might waut.
Walking up to the platform I
handed him mf card and told him
that 1 had maJo a caretul study of
the question ;id challenged him to
public dilate t fttiy time ud
place he in it'll t select. He made do
reply and 1 It-ft the place. Fully
l.t) people followed me. Among
them I noticed Attorney-General
Stockton, of New Jersey.

in de arte. I havealwavs Iwen 11-

fession which one of the daughters
made to her grandfather. She said
he murder had been committed by
herself and her sister with the aid
f their lovers, Calviu Mangum and
S.iuire Walters. Winston objected
