B. Noves, ‘Treasurer Evening Star Newspaper Company. Subscribed and sworn to before me this twenty-third day of September, A.D. 1889, Joun T. C. CLARK, Notary Public. eee The All-America’s congress which meets in Washington on the 2d of October will be one of the most interesting bodies, as regards mem- bership, sims and work, ever gathered here. It will be composed of representative men, speak- ing three different languages, it is true, but all inspired by the same idea of devising a means whereby the commercial and social brother- hood which nature manifestly intended to exist between the inhabitants of the neighbor coun- tries of our western hemisphere may be put upon a substantial foundation. They will discuss customs regulations, a system of extradition, a common coin, the reconcilia- tion of now conflicting laws about shipping, the substitution of peaceful arbitration for war in the settlement of international disputes, and other important topics. Our visitors will be given a fairly comprehensive tour of this coun- try, not so much with a view of impressing them with ite grandeur as in hope of assuring them, by the cordiality of the greeting they every- where receive, that the first republic of the world is ready to meet them half-way in any effort to establish closer relations. The discus- sions are to be in secret session; but there will probably be no attempt to fasten a seal upon the tongues of the deiegates, and what occurs officially will be very likely to come out unoffi- cially through the press, so that the public will know pretty well what turn matters are taking at any stage in the proceedings of the con- gress, The career of Wilkie Collins, whose death is announced in a dispatch from London, shows how little the most conscientious of parents can judge for his children what calling in life holds out the brightest promise for their special powers. Collins's father had a notion of mak- ing either a university don or a clergyman of him, but the boy hated the classics and had little taste for the duties of aclergyman, and, in order to avoid both, entered a counting-house. He was twenty-two years old before he made ap his mind to desert commerce and try his hand at law. For five years he read ina desultory way, asa member of Lincoln's Inn, and continued a barrister in name to the day of his death, but without a brief. In the meantime he gave his thoughts almost wholly to literature. How well he did his work, how thoroughly he vindieated his final choice of letters for a profession, need not be discussed bere; but it is safe to say that, had he followed his father’s bent instead of his own, his name would scareely have crossed the borders of the perish in which he lived and labored, unless in connection with the story of a man whose career had been a dismal failur», ——— As Ohio was under the Hayes and Garfield administrations, so Indiana aims to be under the rule of President Harrison, the source of a multitude of rare and beneficent reforms, The Hoosier school teachers are the latest to move im that direction, Their convention has adopted resolutions urging upon the publie schools of the whole country the importance of a systematic course of instruction for girlsin the evils of tight lacing, the use of cosmetics, and the wearing of apparatus designed to deceive the eye as tothe outlines of the human figure, Such instruction would be expected to work at least as much good among the sweet girl grad- uates as the temperance educational campaign has accomplished among the boys turned out from our public schools every year. It shows 2 becoming sense of justice in the schoolmis- tresses who voted for the resolution that they disbelieve in confining the reformatory efforts of the era to the other sex, The leading republican papers of the coun- tey are taking decided ground in support of civil service reform. The New York Tribune to-day declares that a disbeliever in this reform can have no standing in the republican party, and goes on to “The republican national convention of 1888—the tribunal of last resort for republi- Feces gontarnoa championed the merit system and condemned the spoils system.

Present indications point, however, to s substantial majority for the government partyin the new chamber. This is comforting to the believers in the pres- ent republic, in view of the coalition which was supposed to have been effected between the opposition parties in various parts of the coun- try.

The constant inquiry from property owners for these books evinces the fact that there is consider- able quiet thinking being done just now by a large number of gentlemen, who have heretofore given the subject very little consideration.
