The Lnst of Seven Very Interesting Scientific Tectures, On Sunday evenigg Rev. J. J. Lemen gave the closing lecture of his series on scientific subjects. There have been seven of these lectures, and though the preceding ones have been excellent,fjthe closing was a saving of the best wine to the last of the feast. There have been attending this sories of lectures many who are not often found in the pews of any church, and the interest excited is manifest not only by large audiences, but by the newspaper communications, an- onymous notes, ete., ete. Many who have before considered these questions as rather prosy have found them by no means 8o when clearly stated, and aptly illustrated, and many of the young, particularly, have been led to rsad and think, rather than drift off into errors of belief because some great names have been tacked onto some scientific theory, Those who have read more or less here had their thought quickened and memory refreshed. There has been much of an educational value in the line of natural history and of science enerally, as well as of the tendency to ift the hearers onto a higher plane of spiritual life, and giving them a reason rather than an emotion for the faith that is in them, On Sunday night this last lecture was devoted to the consideration of man himself. The speaker took the brain, and showed its superior weight to that of the animals of the highest intelligence, it employ a competent music teacher in the family is called to the special column on the eighth page. ‘What has become of that resolution passed by the city council last summer, ordering the city marshal to close all gambling houses? The little son of Henry Van Brunt now has a little brother, and the father is as delighted as a man ought to be under such hoppy circumstances. On Tuesday evaning of next week Miss Neally Stevens is to give her piano re- cital, in response to the reqnest of her many friends and admirers here. The postoflice will be open to-day from 11 a. m, till 12:30 o’clock p. m., and in the evening, from 7 to 8 o’clock p. m, The carriers will be on duty as on Sunday. The needful permits were yesterday f granted to Elmer E. Nichols and Fannie A. Weston, both of this city; also to Leroy Thompson and Marietta Holladay, both of Hancock. The city “‘cooler* is a cooler in fact, now-a-days, With no stove, and nothing but stench to fill up the cracks in the doors, the poor fellow who now gets a glass too much has indeed to suffer, Deputy Marshal White has resigned his star to go into the stock business. He has made an excellent deputy, and no man among the officials has gained a atouter reguhtion for obliging manners and straight-forward dealing, L A young fellow giving his name as fl Frank Finner, was arrested yesterday by Marshal Jackson, while trying to sell two horse blankets, evidently stolen from someone.

He showed its parts, and that no one contended for a moment that these parts taken by themselves had any feeling or thought. Even when together, but out of the skull, they had no feeling. Even in the skull when there wav no life in the body, there was no life on the brain, It was life then that was the power of thought, and not the brain itsslf. That brought them back to the old question of what is life and he had already showed the ab- surdity of the evolutionist's theory on the point, He then spoke of the eye, and showed that the human eye was not so far seeing as that of the bee,and hence was not a development. The bee also had eyes on the top of its head, and if the develop- of evolutionists man should have eyes ail over his head. But evolutionists, driven into the corner claimed that there was retrogression as well as development. _ It was easy enough to build a theory making facts run backward or forward to suit the theory, but no such theory was worth the attempt to demonstrate. The hand and voice of man were also used as arguments, In the savage the hand was as perfect as that of a civilized man. So with the yoice. They simply were not trained and hence had powers that the savage knew not of. According to evolution the ph{uicnl organs most nead to be developed,butthe facts showed that they were perfect, and only needed training to bring out their powers, Prof. Wallace, the originator of the theory of selection, aaid that the presence of these organs indicated that a power had placed them there which was beyond his power to explain. Darwin himself admitted it Wwas a great mystery- The last straw these scientists caught at was that man came trom the gorilla and champanzee, because there are sumilarities of formation; but St. George Mivart said that there was no argument in this, for it might as well be nse. In closing tho speaker summarized the facts reached by reasons stated in other lectures, and gathering them all up very concisely, quaintly compared the posi- tion of these scientists with that of Topsy, who said she didn’t know who made her, but ‘‘’spect I jus’ growed.” He deemed it far better to accept the be- lic places—is it not a free for all? which to stand ‘was the rock, Christ \ There seews a disposition on the] part Jesus, of Mr. Dohany notto open his new| Six per cent ci ty and farm loans, 8.

The fteal Fox Captured in Jersey City, and the Young Man Here Released, The young man Cannon who was ar- rosted here en Friday on suspicion of being one James Fox, wanted at Jersey City for absconding with some express money packages, was released yesterday, the chiof of police receiving a telegram that the real Fox had been arrested at Jersey City, and that hence the young man arrested here could not be the fellow. The description of Fox which the police had corresponded very closely with that of young énnmm, he having a sear on his knee, and being of about the same height and weight, and his face re- sembling that of the photograph of Fox. Cannon on being released was quite indigant about the way he had been treated, He said that he had no objec- tion to being held a reasonable time forthe officers to investigate, but thought they ought to have {vrnvided him witha de- cent place in which to stay. Tnstead of that they put him in the jail among a lot of criminals, and afforded him no comforts,. He said he had nothing to sleep on but a bench and no bed clothing but an old blanket, that he got poor fare, had to fight vermin, and in fact was ill- used everyway, which he thinks is pretty hard on an innocent man, Jailer Shontz explained that he offered Cannon a hammock to sleep in, but he preferred the bench. Shontz denies the vermin and bad food charge, and says that he gave him the best trentment&mnmblu. considoring the facilities afforded by the county. 1In order te hold Cannon until more could be learned about bi-, a charge of vagrancy was preferred ag.. 15t him when he was arrested. But now that he proves not to be the man who was wanted this case will be dropped. The description of Fox answered his ap- earance 8o closely as to give the arrest- ing officer grounds to believe that he might be the man, and others thought the same, while others were equally cer- tain it was not Fox. e —— BreAkrasr Cocoa, as a boverage, is univer- sally conceded superior to all other drinks for the weary man of business or the more robust laborer. ~The preparations of Walter Baker & Co, have long been the standard of merit in this line, and our readers who purchase *Za- ker's Breakfast Cocoa”will find it a most health- ful, delicious and invigorating beverage.
