[The friends of prohibition me cordially in vited to contribute to this department. Com munications to be available must be brief. Ad dress the editor,P. O. Drawer, 1)35.] (.The regular meetinjjff of the W. C. T. U. of Yankton will be held at 8 p. m- on the first and third Thursdays of each nnnth, at the Methodist Church.] "'K. "Yoa may desire the. sijooeBB of pro hibition, bat if yoa oerefaliy bide yoor Bbutimrnts tbey will bavn no effsot upon yoar neighbor." These are tbe wis-.i words "i of Now the twenty-three saloons in Yankton have Already started "a con siderable conflagration within the saored precinots of our home," and "in order to pravent the most disastrous conre qaences" to the souls and bodies of our loved ones there is practical- work to be done. If you have a helpful or sugges tive thought please let it be known and thus hold up the hands of other workers. It isn't neoessary to understand Hart or QuackenboBS in orider to announce our belief in temperance or onr conviction that the saloons ought to be suppressed. No rbetorieal flourish would add strength to tbe simple statement, "I believe that intoxicating liquor is a curse to mankind and I will do everything in my power to rid our oiy of it." Yet tbe influence of suob a statement—who could estimate it? WHAT CAN WE DO FOR RBOETLBITION, By "we" I mean avery member of tbe Yankton W. O, T. U., of whom there are mora than fifty. I presume there is not a single one Qf this number who would not be glad to see the liqucr traffic annihilated, but probably we are not all equally strong in the faith that it wiU be, sooner or later. Borne of A N.I oar presi dent and are commended to ull tbose friends of temperance who have not yet contributed to onr W. 0. U. coiamn Tbe defense for silence is veiy often tbe pw&i so* Dot ubpu to wntiDR ior tbe publio press—I never did euob a thing in my life.' Let it be understood that the objeet of this department is not to pat.a prom iam on tine writing, bat to create and eooourage public sentiment in favor of temperance. If your kerosene lamp had exploded you would not step out on tbe piazza, strike a statnueqae attitude and in measured tones say to tbe passers-by, "My friends, there is aoonaiderable con flagration in stnte of progress within tbe saored preoiuots of my home, and it has occurred to me that in order to prevent disastrous consequences to my beloved children who are asleep in the upper portion of tbe hoase it might be well to request yoar assistance." You would probably utter just two words—'"Fire! Help!" without stopping to consider their logioai connection or want of grammatical dependence. If yoa were one of those who answered the orv for help you would not stand around with folded arms, assuring the workers that yoa were in "entire sympathy with tbe movement" but that yoa had never had any experience in putting out firea and did not understand tbe etiquette of the oocasion. Ton, would probably shin up those stairs in two ieaps, siezu a couple of children without-any ceremony and after getting them ont of danger run back and help-put out tbe fire. &&• 176L BB may feel individually powerless to aid in bringing about the desired result, or even doubtful of its' final accomplish ment. But we are all pledged to "use ail proper means in our power to dis courage th6 use of intoxicants and traffic in tbe same.'' The avowed object of the union as. stated *a the. constitution ie •'to eduoate publio sentiment up to the standard of total abstinence, train tlit young, save the inebriate and seouro the legal prohibition, and Complete ban ishment of .the liquor traffic. The first olause in the foregoing air tide covers a wide field of action and may be said to embrace all other branobes of temperance work. The more energetic the work done in any speoial department the greater will be the in fluence upon publio opinion, for this powerful faotor in tbe affairs of men seems to be coutagious. Yet unlike this property in disease* it will not spread if it is oonoealed. You may dedire tbe saooessof prohibitiou but if you oare fully hide your sentiments they will have no effeot upon your neighbor. I believe it will be a surprise to many to learn that there are fifty-five W. 0. T. U,. women in Yankton. It is to them especial^ I write, and I will feel thank ful to any member of the union who reads these words if she will paar.them along to Bome sister who might not otherwise notioe them. There is one very easy and simple method of pro olaiming your sentiments. It lis simply by wearing the badge of our order. There is nothing particularly aggres sive in the addition of a bit of white ribbon to your dress. It. harmonizes with the plainest attire and accords well with the daintiest.

The worst effect of all, aud which ought to make every man, wbo has tbe least Bense of bis privileges, tremble, these houses are become in many places the nurseries of our legislators. An artful man may, by &iiuiug a little sway among tbe rabble 01 a town, multi ply taverns and dramshops, and thereby secure the votes of taveruer and retailer and of all and the multiphoatiou of taverns will make many, wbo may be induoed by flip and rum to vote lor any man whatever. I think it would be well worth tbe atteution of our legislature to Confine tbe number and retrieve the char acter of lioeused houses, lest that impiety and profaneness, that abandoned intern peranoe and prodigality, that impudence and brawling temper, which these abominable nurseries daily propsgate, should arrive at last to a degree of strength that even the legislature will not be able to control.—John Adams, THE LORD'S DAY. From the Pastoral Letter of the Catbo 11c Arekblalioiis and ltisltop*, U. Assembled In the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore, 18M4, to the Clergy and j^lty of their Charge. There aro many sad faots in the ex perience of nations, wbioh we may well store up as lessons of practical wisdom. Not the least important of these is the fact that ow of the surest marks and measures of tbe decay .of religion in a people is their non-observance of the Lord's Day. In traveling through some European countries a christian heart is pained by the almost unabated rush of toil and traffic on Sunday. First, grasp ing avarice thought it oould not afl'ord to spare the day to God then nowise governments, yielding to the pressure of mammon, relaxed the lawB waion ior many ceutaries had guarded the day's sacrednesB—forgetting that there are certain fundamental principles, which ought not to be sacrificed to popular oaprice or greed and when, as usually happens, neglect of religion had passed by lapse of time, into hostility to relig ion, this growing neglect of the Lord's Day was easily made use of as a means to bring religion itself into contempt. The chutch mourned, protested, struggled, but was almoBt powerlese to resist tbo odmbined forces of popular avarice and Cesar's iuflaenoe, arrayed on tbo side of irreligion. Tbe result is tbe lamentable deBeoration wbioh all christian.) must deplore. And the consequences of this desocra tion are as manifest as the desecration itself. Tbe Lord's Day is the poor man's day of rest it has been taken from him and the laboring classes are a seething voioano of sooial discontent. The Lord's Day is the home day, drawing closer the sweet domestio ties, by giving tbe toiler a day with wife aud children but it has been turned into a day of labor, aqd home ties are fast losing their sweetness and their hold. Tbe Lord's Day is tbe ohuroh day, strengthening and coDBeora ting the bond of brotherhood among all men, by their kneeling together around the altars of tbe one Father in heaven but men are drawn away from this blessed communion of saints—and as a natural oonoequence they are lured into the counterfeit communion of so cialism, and other wild and destructive systems. The Lard's Day is Ood's Day, rendering ever nearer and more intimate the union between the oreature and hie Creator, and thus enobling human life iu all its departments and where this bond is weakened an effort is made to out man loose from Qod entirely, and to leave him aooordmg to the expression of St. Paul,"without Qod in the world."^ The profanation of the Lord's Day, whatever be its pretext, is a defrauding both of Qod and his creatures, and retri bution is not slow. In this country there are tendencies and Influences at work to bring about a similar result and it behooves all who IQVO God and oare] for society,' to see that they ba checked. Ae usual, greed for gain lies at the bottom of the move ment. Even when the pretense put forward, ie popular eoavienenbe or popular amusement, the clamor for larg er liberty does not come so mnoh from those who deire the convenience or the amusement, as frotu those who hope to enrioh themselves by supplying it. Now far be it from us to advooa'te euoh Sunday laws as wbnld hinder necessary work, or prohibit such popular enjoy ments as are consistent with the sacred ness of the day. It is well known, how ever, that the tendenoy is to rush far beyond the bounds of neoestity and propriety, and to allege these reasons only as an exouBe for virtually ignoring the sacredcess of the day altogether. But no community oan afford to have either gain or amusement at suoh a oost. To turn tha Lord's day into a day of toil is a blighting curse to a oouutry to turn it into. a day of dissipation would be worse. We earnestly appeal, therefore, to all Catholics, without diBtiuotion, not .only to take no part in any movement tending towards a re laxation of the observance of Snnday butito use their influenoe and power o« citizens to resist in the opposite di rection. There is one way of profaning the tiord's day which is so prolific of evil results, that we oonsider it bur doty to utter against it a sneoial condemnation. This id the praotice of selling beer or liquors on Sunday, or of frequenting places where tbey are sold.. This prac tice tends more than any other to tut the day of tbe IiOrd into a day cl dissipation, to use it as an ocoasion for breeding intemperance. While we hope that Sunday la* a on this point will not be relaxed, but even more riaidly enforced, we implore all Catho lics, for the iove of God and oountry, never take part in such Sunday traffic, no? to patrouizs .or countenance it. Aid we not only direct the attention of all pastors to tne repression of this abtue, bat we alio call upon them "to m** fat::..'-."« '.i W induce all of their floeks that may be engaged in tbe sale of liquors to ubandon as SOOB as tbey can this danger ous traffic, and to embrace a more be coming way of making a living. And here it behooves us to remind our workingmen, the bone and sinew of the people and specially beloved children of the ohurcb, that if tbey wish to ob serve Sunday as tbey ought, they must keep away from drinking places on Saturday Bight. Carry your wages home to your families, where they rightfully belong. Tarn a deaf ear, therefore, to every temptation and then Sunday will be a bright day for all the family. HW much better this than to make it a day of sin for yourselves, and of gloom and wretohedness for your homes, by a Satur day night's folly or debauoh. No wonder that tbe prelates of tbe second plenary council declared that "the most sbooking soandals which we have to de-* plore spring from intemperance." No wonder that tbey gave a speoial ap proval to tbe zeal of those who, the better to avoid excess, or in order to give good example, pledge themselves to total abstinence, ljike thfiss we in voke a blessing on tbe oause of temper anoe. and on all who are laboring for its advancement in true christian spirit. Let tbe exertionB of onr Catholic tem perance societies meet with the hearty oo-operation of pastors and people and not only will they go far towards strang ling the monstrous evil of intemperance, but tbey will also put a powerful oheok on the desecration of the Lord's day, and on evil influences now striving for its total profanation. Let all our people "remember to keep holy the Lord's day." Let them make it not ODly a day of rest, but also a day of prayer.—*Ephes. n: 12. THE CHICAGO RACES. MAGNIFICENT RACING CLUB HOUSE IN THE BREEZY CITY. Pictures of Washington Park Clit Homo—Gen. I'llil. Sheridan, President of the Association—Ike Murphy, X.ncky Baldwin's 90,000 a Year Col' ored Jockey. It was a shrewd stroke of business to elect Gen. Phil. Sheridan president of the Wash' ington Park Kaclng club,.in Chicago. New York itself could not find so picturesque and so valuable a figure to cet up at tbe bead of any of its horse associations. But Chicago is young New York, with most tilings on a new, broad scale. It attaint the best in whatever it undertakes. About the last of the year 18S2, a number of Chicago gentlemen, with the greatness ol tiieir windy city at heart, met and discussed plait: for a horse club. Its objects were tc p-omote good fooling, raise the standard oi liorsGs and horse oreediag, and lastly, and perhaps away down in each gentlemen'! heart, greatest of all, "exhibiting horses ai mo stings," in other words, racing. In 1883. January, the association toot sha regularly, under the name of Wash ington Puric club. Very soon after Gen. Sheridan waR elected president of the club. He was no the general of the army then, hut became to soon aCt.'r, and since then he has not baen too proud to continue the land ing officer of tLe Chicago horse club. The general is 63 years old now, and good for many many more Chicago horse races, let us hope. He was only 20 when ho graduated at West Point, He took to horses away back, Vfhen he wash boy" in Ohio. Gen. Hancock called him "A whirlwind with spurs on." He him self was the observed and admired of al] at the recent summer races St the Washing ton club. He sat in the judges' stand and watched the running. with deep Interest, very gray as to his hair now, since the twins have made so many demands on him, but ereot, jaunty and bright eyed as eyer. The general looks like a rather tall mii when he is sitting down. But when he stands it is perceived that his lower limb! are short. While he was in the judges1 staud his brother,' Michael V., wandered about among tho horsemen. GEN. PHIL 8UERIDA.H. «iiee&mdm CLUB HOUSB. The grounds of the club contain eighty three acre*, and comprise one of the largest race tracks in tho country. Tho landscape is beautifully laid out with trees, shrubs, walks, flowers, and miniature lakes. The grand stand has a seating capacity of 10,000. The.club houso proper has accommodations for members and their families, dininj rooms for both ladies and gentlemen, am a sumptuous table service, whose silverware is stamped with a stirrup and whip bent in the shape of a "W." There are magnificent stables and plenty of lodging rooms for jockey?. fifteen thousand people attended tbe great race of tbo summer series lately. It was a running race for young horaes. The old favorites were largely backed. There were nearly all the runners that had cov ered theniselves with glory at tha Louisville Derby—Ben Ali, Blue Wing, Pre cioja, and others. Ben' Ali, who won at Louisville, was first favorito in tho betting. Everybody believed he or Blue Wing would come out ahead. The horsos of two Chliforniti stables occupied much prominence in the talk before tho raca. One ow&er was J. H. Hiireins, to whom bo lougoil Ben Ali and Bin Fox, the other was the 'eccentric Luolcy Baldwin, with his racers from his Siutu Anita stablea To blm belonged Silver Cloud, ilia horso thnt, arntd tremendous cheering aud cxcitomout, enne iu winner. 4 IIOUSK V1HXPLACB.

To meet this need tbe ofBcs of the club house is provUed with arrangements for an open fire. The fireplace is a flue speci men of American artisUo accomplishment. The race w^j intensely excitiug. Jiucky Baldwin ha« a Certain little colored jockey whom he Bay* 80.000 a year to ride hisi ?r •^^hu. .' r"in •& corses ai race*, xxo btwuiis tu tw cue grvaitfsc jockey America has produced. He is said to be superior to Archer, the Englisman. Either his luck or his skill is something mar velous They call him tho "wonderful little nigger." At the Chicago races Silver Cloud was not expected to win at all. But Ike Murphy, tho little colored jockey, v. a upon his back, atjl he dashed in a length alidad of Blue Wing. The Chicago Herald says of the scene that followed: 'As Murphy came in under the wire he was greeted with a storm of applause, and when he dismounted men ran np to him and patted him on the back. One man in a blue luit threw his arms around his neck as though he was about to chew his ear." The great jockey was presented with a beautiful saddle and was nearly borne off the track by men who thought be would wm and bad backed up their guesses with greenbacks and coin Tbe result of tbe race was a surprise to the knowing ones who had bet their money on Blua Wing and Ben Ali. It was a sur prise to Jockey Murphy, who said: "I didn't expect the hoi°se would win at all. After ho had run a mile ho saw that be was behind and then he began to sulk. That's tin old trick of his, and I just touched him up and gave'him a word of encouragement. The way ho shot to the front nearly took my breath away, and I had to laugh to rnyseli all the way down tbe stretoa. The horse wanted some encouragement, that's all." JUDGES' STAND. "Lucky" Baldwin, who wins about $9,000 In stakes, did not back his horse to win. He had little hopo of seeing Silver Cloud get a place, much less winning the race. After he had congratulated bis jockey he riveted his plug bat on the back of his head and be gan to stroll about the grounds as though he were lost Old horpemen who saw htm said that the Californian was "kicking" himself. "Silver Cloud won the racj just becausc Murphy was on his back," said a man. "The next time I see that fellow on a lior.ie I'm going to plav liim, no n.altcr if it's a ran horse he's n."
