The mecting of the general assembly, composed of the state officers of the organization, will be held at Columbus, Ohio, on the 15th of Feb- ruary, and the question as to where the next mect will be held will then be decided upon. cre is little doubt that a large majority of 000 members of the league are anxious to come to this city, but itis necessary that they should be entertained in a fitting manner, and the hotel and business men will be ap- pealed to by the local wheelmen for substan- tial aid tocarry out the plans of the committee. The bicycle brass band of Chicopee Falls, Mass., composed of forty men, all employes of the Overman Wheel Company, wil! be here to furnish music for the occasion. The Chicago men are enthusiastic for Washington, and ask, in return for their support at the assembly meeting, the united aid of the eastern delegates in booming Chicago as the place of mecting for 1893.

Important Meeting at Kendall Green to Ar range for a Conference Next July. Amoeting of unusual interest has been held at the National Deaf Mute College during the past week of prominent representatives of deaf muto education in the United States and Canada. The profession of deaf mute instructors in America, like many other professions, holds ns and conferences at stated times, and these meetings are arranged for by a stand- ing executive committee, which is elected by the largest body, the convention. ‘The first of these meetings was held in New York in 1850, when there were but tweive schools for the deaf in this country. Thirty- four persous only responded to the invitation to this convention, representing six schools. imiiar meetings were held in Hartford, Conn., Colurabus, Ohio, Jacksonville, Iil., and’ Staun- ton, Va., before the time of the civil war, when they were suspended for ten years. In 1568, on tho invitation of President Gai- landet, a conference of principals of American schools for the deaf was held at the college at Washington, and since that time meetings have been held at regular intervals of two years at Indianapolis, Flint, Mich.; Belleville, Ont.; Philadelphia, Colambus, Obio; Northampton, Mass.; Jacksonville, Ul: Pairbauit, Berkeley, Cal.; Jackson, Miiss., and New ¥ At the last’ meeting, held "in August, 1890, filty schools out of the eighty-one then exist= ing were represented by 316 delegates. In this convention schools of every variety of method united, and subjects of interest to all branches of the work of teaching the deaf were presented a forty papers, which naturally gave rise to much instructive discussion. ‘The stonding committee, which met here last weck to arrange for future meetings of the rofession, cousists of President Gullaudet, hairman: Dr.Isanc L.Post, principal of the New York Institution; Dr. Philp G. Gillett, supe intendent of the ‘Illinois Institution: Dr. Jonuthan L. Noyes, superintendent of the Minnesota School: ‘Miss Caroline A. Yale, 1 of the Clarke Institution at North- ampton, Mass.; W. O. Counor, principal of the jeorgia Institution, and R. Mathison, superin- tendent of the Ontario, Canada, Institution. All the members of the committee were at Kendall Green iast week exeept Miss Yule. ‘The chief business of the committee here was to arrange for a conference of superintenden| and principals, to be held at Colorado Springs ext July, and 2 general conyeation at Chicago in the summer of 1503. The latter meeting will take the form of an ecumenical congrose of teachers of the deaf, under the nuspices of the world’s congress auxiliary, and it 18 hoped tha: representatives will be present from many foreign countries. ident Harrison gave the membors of the tice a private audience and Dr. Gallau- vertained them at his residence, inviting icers of the college and school at Kendall Green, with their families, to meet them. On titis oceasion an unexpected but very wel- come guest appeared, the Itight Honorable Wiliam Woodall, M. P. of England, a membor of tuo royal commission on the deaf and dumb, before which Dr. Gallaudet was invited to ap- pear in 1886.

Alger Camp, Sons of Veterans, No. 25, Division of Maryland, that we earnestly urge the repeal of section No. B04, Revised Statutes of the United States, relu- tive to the District of Columbia, for the follow- ing reasons, viz: 1. ‘That said law was passed for the benefit of the men who fought in the Union army or navy in the war between the states of this Union. 2. That by reason of the age limit no man who served in the army or navy during any art of said war between the states of this Snion is now eligible to appointment on the police force of the District of Columbia. . That the effect of this statute now is to disbar not only the veterans for whose benefit it was enacted, but aleo their sons now grown to manhood. as well as all other bona fide citi- zens of the District. 4.

Dr. Bartlett's Sermon on the American Colonization Society. At the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church last evening Rev. Dr. Bartlett preached u ser- mon commemorative of the seventy-tifth an- niversary of the American Colonization Soci There was an unusually large congregation present, though there were very few colored people. Dr. Bartlett, in hia addross, said: “The American Colonization Society has been guided by the Bible since its organization, seventy-five years ago. There are people who consider the socivty a back number. “I have seen it stated that this society onght to be looked into by the authorities; that it is dangerous to American institutions. | Its man- been charged wit many shorteom- has been asserted that the organi- zation has not accomplished nd never will what it seeks; that the colored people as free- men are a failure. ‘The pian forsending 8,000,- G€0 people to Africa is looked upon as absurd, Notwithstanding these assertions, 10,000 people have been landed here in one day, #0 great are the facilities of transportation in this age of progress.” Dr. Bartlett,in the course of his sermon, said: “We should see that there isa republic in Africa protected aguinst all powers. The question is asked, Why should the white man be interested in this question? and I because our fathers were slavcholders owe reparation to the race.” ‘The socicty’s annual report shows that 15 emigrants were given parage und the means of scitioment in Liberix during the yc Senstwiz ‘Suggestions in regard 20 THE GRIP. So many remedies aro advertised to curo the Grip that people smile and shake their heads. Now wo do not claim Hood's Sarsuparilia to be a cure for this really dangerous complaint. If you have the Grip the best thing you can do is tocall a reliable physician. But we do claim that for two conditions in relation to the Gp Hood's Sarsaparilla is a very valuable med!- cine. FIRST, AS A PREVENTIVE. Hood's Sareaparilla so purifies the blood and bui:ds up the strength that the system: successfully resists attacks of the Grip. This complaint and othe: diseases are often preceded by a weakness, that tired feeling, which Hood's Sarseparilla taken in season Will soon overcome. SECOND, AFTER THE GRIP. Convalescence from any form of the Grip is very ; slow, and to regain the desited strenxth a good tonic is absolutely necessary. Words are not strong enough to express our confidence in HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA Asatonic after attacks of the Grip, or after typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diphtheria, pneumonia or other Drostrating diseases. Many testimonials from people who have taken it conclustvely prove that it possesses: Just the building-up effect so much needed; it vital- izes and enriches the thin and impoverished blood, and it invigorates tbe liver and kidneys.
