VOL. XVIII. Towns Almost Wiped Off the Map and Damage Through Country Dis- trictz Will Reach Enor- A Kansas City special says: In the storm that struck on miles southeast of Dodge City, a herder, name unknown, was killed and Mrs. Tibb Shane was fatally injured. Many small buildings were wrecked and scores of cattle killed. The report that Mulvane, Kans, had been swept away by a tornado proves to have been exaggerated. More or less damage was caused at that place but as far as can be learned there was no serious loss and no casualties are reported. In the northwestern corner of Dickinson county eight dwellings were blow down and several injured, but all will recover, the track of the storm in his county was a quarter of a mile wide and twenty miles in length, and it is estimated that $30,000 damages was done to crops. Hundreds Homeless. Hundreds of persons were rendered homeless and properly damages to the extent of $300,000 was done in the Enid, Oklahoma, bottoms alone by a cloudburst that struck west of the city at midnight Saturday night. The aggregate damage probably will be much higher on account of losses sustained between Enid and the seat of the storm. A bank of water three feet high and 200 feet wide, swept down through the bottoms at midnight, carrying houses and everything before it. It came upon Enid without warning, while most of its inhabitants were asleep. Within a few minutes a hundred houses were completely submerged. Many persons lost everything they possessed. The means for relieving distress are inadequate. The rainfall for ten days was the heaviest in the history of Oklahoma and indications are that more will follow. Reports of losses in the country west of Enid are more, but it is believed that heavy damage was done. Additional advices state that about 7:30 o'clock Saturday night the tornado struck Carden, Oklahoma, and destroyed about one-third of the town, including the principal business houses and postoffice. P. F. Brown, of Wichita representing a machinery company, was killed instantly by flying timbers, his brains being found 30 feet from the body. Mrs. Wismiller was fatally injured. Among the buildings destroyed were the Merrill furniture store, the Carnenn drug store, the Halstead meat market, the Headlight printing office and Wismiller's hardware store. The Methodist church was set on top of the parsonage, where it remains and can be seen for miles. The tornado also struck Foss, a town of 200 inhabitants on the Chuctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf railway in western Oklahoma. early Sunday morning, destroying thirteen residences and wrecking many outhouses. Three persons were killed and a number injured. one R. P. Hall seriously. The dead are F. V. Slagel, his wife and daughter. Storm Sweeps Illinois. A tornado swept across central Illinois Sunday, causing much damage, although no lives were lost. The storm was accompanied by torrents of rain and by lightning. Two grain elevators were blown over at Carlock and many barns and structures were destroyed. Thousands of shade trees were uprooted and electric wires were blown down. Great Blow in Nebraska. A tornado struck near Randolph, Nebr., late Saturday night and caused heavy loss. The home of William Fredericks was demolished. Fredericks and his wife were carried some distance, but had a miraculous escape from death. Many barns were blown down and horses and other stock injured. The home of H. Helms is in ruins. POST TRIAL POSTPONED. Supreme Court Has Not Yet Passed Upon Habea Carus Writ. A Jacksonville, Fla., dispatch says: The much-litigated case of the United States vs. Helen Wilmans Post, the famous "Absent treatment cure-alls," set for Monday, has been postponed on account of the United States supreme court not yet acting on an appeal made by Mrs. Post's attorneys on a writ of habeas corpus. United States Attorney Stripling claims their appeal to the United States supreme court is hand on falsehoods. The case was made famous of account of mental science people The Savannah Tribune. WHOLE TOWNS WRECKED. Two More Tornadoes Get in Their Work of Death and Destruction in West and Northwest. A series of heavy storms, two of which developed into the worst tornadoes that have visited southern Nebraska in years, passed over portions of Clay, Franklin and Kearney counties Sunday evening. Fifteen persons are known to have lost their lives and over a score of persons were more or less seriously injured. Near Norman the following were killed: Daniel McCurdy, Robert McCurdy, Mrs. John Whelever, Mrs. Earl Bacon, Mrs. C. A. Triple. Near Upland the dead are: Lutheran minister, name unknown; Mrs. John Peters, farmer's wife; Mrs. Lamers and mother. At Pauline the dead are as follows Mr. and Mrs. James Mumaw and child, Frank Quigg, Flora Paffilmer, John Palmer. Near Norman, at the home of Daniel McCurdy, a number of relatives and friends were spending the day and not one in the house escaped death or serious injury. Two miles south of Upland, German Lutheran services were being held in a school when the storm struck and demolished it, killing four of the occupants, including the minister, and injuring a number of others. The storm was equally destructive at Fairfield, but the people were warned of its coming and sought collars for safety. Six dwellings were blown to pieces at that place, but their occupants escaped injury with a few exceptions. Every dwelling and outbuilding in the path of the tornado was blown to pieces and the financial loss thus far accounted for will reach about $60,000. There Were Two Tornadoes. There were two madoos, both originating within a mile of Fairfield. The first one moved to the northwest and the second off to the southwest. The one to the northwest did the greater damage and all the fatalities seem to have been in its path. The list of injured is small, in comparison to the fatalities, as only about twenty people in the stricken section are reported as being more or less seriously hurt. The greatest loss of property was sustained by farmers. The heaviest individual loss reported is that suffered by Charles Taylor, who places the damage to his stock farm, including cattle and horses killed, at $21,000. Worst Storm In Years. The worst storm in twenty years raged in Rochester, Minn., Sunday night from 11 to 2:30. The streets were flooded. The Sumbro river rose 5 feet in two hours and many houses and yards were soon under water. A cloudburst is reported at Rockwell, and some stock was drowned. The Chicago and Northwestern railway track near Dover was washed out for 300 yards. Iowa Town Wrecked. A tornado struck the town of Rolfe, Iowa, seventy miles west of Des Moines, late Sunday, killing Fong Foo, a laundryman, fatally injuring a child and wrecking the State bank building, Crayon's general store, the Hotel de Main and one other building. Several residences were damaged. A tornado struck the town of Elmo, Mo, unroofing stores and littering he town with debris. No lives were lost. BUY BREAD WITH TOTS. Bad State of Affairs in Famine Stricken Section of China. United States Consul General McWade, at Canton, under date of April 7, sent to the state department a detailed report of the famine in Hwang Si in support of his cabled appeal for help. He produced a mars of information which he declares to be reliable from American missionary and native sources in Kwang Fing, Wu Chow and other places, showing the destitution and the consequent suffering which the consul general rays is absolutely appalling. He says that the heads of families in their desperation were selling their children from $2 to $5 each, yet so many were the offerings and so few the purchases that not all could be sold even at this price. MADE GREAT HAUL. Former Cashier of Westport Bank Grabbed All in Sight. It was learned in Westport, Conn., Friday night, fro me source that is absolutely reliable that the amount of defalcation of Oliver Sherwood, the former cashier of the Westport National bank, will be very close to $200- 000. In addition to the money taken from the bank by Sherwood, it is believed, has disposal of notes issue the town of Fairfield. These notes, amounting to $02,000, already had been redeemed and the present holders will be the losers. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MAY 30. 1903. FEAR OF FEUDISTS OFFICIALS APPREHENSIVE Every Precaution Being Taken to Protect Court, Jury and Witnesses In Trial of Curtis Jett and Tom White. A special from Jackson, Ky., says: The capture of Tom White and the return of Curtis Jett to Breathitt county were the events of Tuesday in the investigation of the murder of J. B. Marcum on which chief interest focused. The question of whether more troops are needed is agitating the minda of many. While nothing has occurred to arouse apprehension, there have been suggestions that do not make all feel secure. The authorities feel that more troops are needed, they will be badly needed and any emergency will be abrupt. There is a well defined belief that when Jett and White are put on trial there will be a confession and that a number of prominent men may be implicated. It is argued that an army of men could be quickly gotten together in the interior of Breathhitt county. It could sweep down on Jackson and, under the protext of lynching, secure the "prisoners, possibly kill some one who possessed knowledge and apply the adage, "that dead men tell no tales." It is true that this would be a desperate undertaking, but desperate things have been done in Breathhitt county and this view may not seem as intemperate there as it would seem improbable elsewhere. At any rate, Mrs. J. B. Marcum, her friends and a numbe: of citizens are urging that more troops be sent believing that the men now in Jackson scattered among the various factions could not cope with a mob of mountain men. A consultation among officers was held, but further than ordering another Gatling gun from Louisville there is no indication that reinforcements will be required. Tom White was arrested at the home of his mother, eighteen miles from Jackson, at daylight Tuesday morning, by a squad of soldiers under Deputy Sheriff Little, who made the arrest. The house was surrounded and White was called out. When he reached the fence the warrant was read and, accompanied by soldiers, he returned to the house and dressed. The party reached Jackson shortly after noon and White was remanded to jail. At the advice of his attorney, Jorge John Noble, he declined to make a statement. Jett Put in Irens. Provisional Sheriff B. J. Little and twelve soldiers went to Winchester during the day and the order for Jett was honored by Judge Benton. He was placed in irons and arrived in Jackson and was committed to jail late in the evening. He employed B. F. French, of Winchester, as counsel. An effort will be made by his attorney to get a change of venue. If this fails he will endeavor to have the jury summoned from outside of Breathitt county. The impression is strong that the conspirariles which have culminated in the series of assassinations in Breathitt county will be traced to the fountain head and startling developments are expected. Jett is bitter against the officials of Breathitt county, whom he claimed as friends and whom he blames for not coming to his relief. It is not known what he expects of them, but he is bitterly disappointed. The jail is heavily guarded. Judge Redwine issued an order placing the jail under military control, and Jailer Spencer turnq1 over the keys to Colonel Williams. Jett and White were not allowed to converse with one another and occupied separate cells. White's attorney was denied the privilege of talking with Jett. The temporary removal of the jailer was simply to give troops the custody of those or whose safety the militia is responsible. Montreal People walking The employees of the Montreal, Canada, street railway went on strike again at an early hour Saturday and the road is completely tied up. When a ballot was taken on the question, only about half a dozen of some 1,500 voted against strike. Soldiers Sent to Frankfort. Governor Beckham ordered that two companies of state troops leave Lexington, Ky., for Jackson to preserve order during the special term of court there, to look into the Marcum assassination, STORM WRECKS ASYLUM. Three Disastrous Tornadoes Sweep a Section of Iowa—Dozen Lives are Reported Lost. Three tornadoes in Iowa; two Monday night and one Tuesday night, resulted in the loss of six lives, the fatal injury of three and the serious injury of a score of people, beside great property loss. The dead at Glenwood—Maggie Bictner, Hazel Wright. Near Buxton—Georgia Buckley, Herbert Rhodes. At South Des Moines—Russell A. Knauf, Floyd Knauf. Injured at Glen vood: Mary Eckert, Anna Delaney, Myrtle Dickinson, Etta Newton, Harrison Johnson, Rolla Rathburn.

The victims at Glenwood were all inmates of the school for the feeble-minded, whre the storm struck at 9:30 Tuesday night. The tornado struck the girls' dormitory, commonly known as the old building, first. The roof was torn off and 'col back upon the wreck and building. All of the buildings of the group, including the hospital, were more or less damaged by the storm. The tornado struck the town of Elmo, eight miles west of Blanchard and just across the Missouri line. Tuesday evening, destroying the town. Six persons are known to have been killed and several others injured. The storm destroyed a three-story brick hotel. Six bodies have been removed from the ruins of the building and others are believed to be buried in the debris. DR. HILLIS IS REWARDED. "Admiring Friends" in Tennessee Send Him Sum of Thirty Cents. A Memphis, Tenn, dispatch says: The utterance of the Rev. Dr. Dwight Hillls, of New York, about making up the bed of Booker Washington should he be a visitor at his home, met with condemnation in this part of the south, and several of his admiring friends of McKenzie, Tenn, sent him a purse of 30 cents, with the following note: "Dear Dr. Hills—We are all poor, but we want to share our substance with you in admiration for your wonderful sacrifice of yourself on the altar of duty for mere opinion's sake. Your courage in assuming the affirmative on the question. 'Shall Booker Washington have me spread his quilts?' is one of the finest examples of manly independence that the twentieth century has yet produced. "We rather think the Indianapolis chambermaid has you bested at this stage of the game, and her position is probably more remunerative than yours, but we glory in your spunk, and we are not willing for your efforts to go unrewarded. Yours' affectionately, ADMIRING FRIENDS." WANTED TO KILL ROOSEVELT? Alleged Would-Be Assassin Lodged in Walla Walla Jail. Joseph Recker, a radical socialist, is in the city jail at Walla Walla, Wash., on suspicion of having intended to kill President Roosevelt Monday. The entire affair was kept quiet until the president's departure. Becker is accused of remarking in Pendleton, Oregon, last week, that he had one bullet for President Roosevelt and another for Emperor William, of Germany. He left for Walla Walla with a winchester, and his Pendleton partner, Pat Kline, followed him to Walla Walla, notifying the police. Bocker was located working in a butcher shop. He was arrested and on being sweated disclosed the location of his rifle, which was packed away in a farmer's barn along the line of march. Becker is a Swiss. The police think that a tragedy was narrowly averted. Encampment of Odd Fellows In the presence of a brilliant audience that filled a large hall to overflowing in Atlanta the annual meeting of the grand encampment of the Odd Fellows of Georgia came to a close Tuesday night. MAKING WAR ON NEGROES. Farmers in Dearborn County, Indiana, Avenging a Murder. Farmers in Dearborn and adjoining counties of Indiana, are making a determined war upon negroes as a result of the murder of Miss Anna Kaiser. Many families have been ordered to leave and negroes employed by farmers are being discharged. Tuesday a committee of farmers, headed by Martin J. Kaiser, Jr., brother of the murdered girl, waited upon the superintendent of the Big Four construction work at Guilford and notified him that the negroes employed by him must leave. MRS. CARSON FREE She Tells How and Why She Used Bistol—Great Demonstration in Court Room When Verdict Was Announced. In the trial of Mrs. Carson, in Macon, Ga., for the murder of the student, Rigsby, the jury returned a verdict of "Not Gullty." Instantly a dozen strong men were leaning over the chair in which Mrs. Carson was sitting, each extending a hand and all expressing congratulations, while she sat mute with joy and with tears streaming from her eyes. From all sections of the room men stepped forward, to have a word with the woman who had gone through such a crying ordeal, and for a second it looked as though a stampede in that direction was sure, but Judge Felton's gavel quickly brought the crowd to order and within a half minute Mrs. Carson and her husband, accompanied by her father and Judge Ross, were leaving the court room. For half an hour Friday afternoon, Mrs. Carson, charged with murdering J. C. Rigsby in Attorney Bayne's office in Macon, Ga., last January, held the undivided and almost breathless attention of a packer, court room. Men, young and old, strained every faculty to hear her every word, watch her every jesture, and to miss nothing of the look of mental agony shown in the defendant's face. From a note book Mrs. Carson gave her version of the killing and of the conversation leading up to it and to this she made frequent reference, though at no time was her delivery in the slightest halting or her manner the least confused. The defendant referred to the damaging remarks male by Rigsby about her and told how this information came to her. She told how she had attempted to secure a retraction from him and related the conferences held in Lawyer Bayne's office at which others were present, telling minutely what had occurred. She told of the meetings Saturday morning and Saturday afternoon, and when she described the scene in which Rigsby declined to right the wrong he had done her there was a deep silence throughout the court room. Of the purchase of the pistol Monday morning just before the killing she told, saying that she made the purchase because she frequently drove to her farm and had always carried a pistol with her. Immediately after buying the pistol she went to Mr. Bayne's office, where the trouble was discussed with him, as her attorney. The appearance of Rigsby in the office after Mr. Bayne had been to see him was described, as was the withdrawal of the attorney and his stenography, leaving her and Rigsby alone in the office. "It was then," said Mrs. Carson, "that Rigsby started to lock the door. I did not like that, and advancing from the rear of the office, where I had been sitting, I asked him not to lock the door. To my request he paid no attention. Then he went to the desk and spoke of drawing an agreement or a paper for me to sign, saying that one of us would have to bear the shame of this trouble, and that it could not be him." Here Mrs. Carson grew absorbingly interesting. "When Rigby closed the door," she said, "he had one hand behind him. When he demanded that I sign the paper and I refused, he shoved me back against the window. The second time he pushed me. The pistol was still in the window, where I had put it when I first entered the room and I grabbed it and went to shooting." Mrs. Carson recited the opening of the door and her remark to Lawyer Bayne, who was in the hallway. She told of her inquiry as to the location of the sheriff's office, and of her surrender to that official. CURTIS JETT INDICTED. Stands Charged by Grand Jury With Assassination of Marcus.

Marum. The action taken by the grand jury was prompt and decisive and there is now a growing impression that justice will at last be administered in the Hargis-Cockrell seud, of which Attorney Marum was the latest victim. —For alloged combination to fix rates in Austin, fifty-nine fire insurance companies are to be barred from Texas. —Two engineers and a fireman were killed Tuesday in two wrecks, one on the Southern and one on the Chesapeake and Ohio. —The supreme court of North Carolina is now considering the second appeal of James Wilcox, convicted of the murder of Nellie Cropsey. —Lieutenant Javier, commanding a force of constabulary, defeated 200 fanatics on the island of Cebu, Philippines, killing sixty-eight. —The United States government is investigating the charge that negroes are held in prisonage in Alabama.

EVERY wrong inflicted on our people should be made known. When such occurs and nothing is said, it will continue and too in an increased form. The post-office investigation is being far reaching. Already several accused have been arrested for beating the government. Fortunately no Negro is "in it." You will find that the class of colored men who are against a worthy colored enterprise, would be the first to be duped in any plan submitted by a face that is white. The railroad officials should compell their conductors to keep white passengers out of the coaches allotted to colored passengers. If this is done much unpleasantness would not occur. THE TRINUNE along with every colored person extend sympathy to the Jews for the manner in which they are being treated by the Russians. The colored people can sympathize sincerely in this matter. EVERY young colored man, matters not how small his salary may be, should endeavor to purchase a piece of property. City property and county property too should be purchased especially while the price is reasonable. It is pleasant to note that at this season hundreds of our boys and girls are being graduated from the several schools and colleges. It would be a God-send if there was sufficient business conducting for- one of them to secure employ ment. THE colored people are accused of leaving the farms for the city. They can not be blamed very much for doing so. In many districts they are not protected by the law and much advantage is taken of them, hence their flight to the cites and towns. THE patronage of our people by some of the white merchants is not appreciated in the least. If it was so that all our people could refrain from making purchases from them for just a month, many of them would have to close their business and a local money panic would be precipitated. If the school fund is adequately divided between the two races, the Negro will have no cause to complain. As it is now he receives only about twenty-two per cent of the educational fund, while he contributes double that amount to the fund, notwithstanding contrary assertion. With the thousands of dollars that the colored people of Savannah spend weekly with the white merchants they can not demand one of their number to be given a clerkship or any other position except a mental one. The only thing for our people to do if they want their boys and girls given employment is for them to patronize race enterprises now established and foster more of them. Some of our white contemporaries can get up some of the most absurd articles imaginable. One of the latest is the deportation of several thousand and colored people of the south to Boston from where they will be distributed throughout the north and west. This bit of news is similar to the announcement of the formation of an organization to invade Hayti Imaginative brains present queer tales. ONE of the best things that our colored housekeepers can do is to keep the peddlers from their doors and allow no collector to knock thereat. We feel that it is necessary for some of our people at times to purchase articles on the installation plan. When this is done make such arrangement as will prevent collectors from calling. It is far better to go and pay bills than to have these men call at the homes. Many of them treat our females disrespectfully and at times insultingly. Keep them away and there will be no cause for complaint. CONSTANTLY the colored newspapers have called attention to the advantage that is taken of our people in several parts of the South. No state in the South is free of this charge. The plan was if a charge of any kind would be made against a colored man, the accused would be taken to some magistrate and there tered for any length of time, it the meantime some white party will arrive and purchase the time of the accused who is taken off and placed in a state of servitude where he remains indefinitely. He is then treated worse than a slave, for as a general thing slaves are never barricaded at nights or otherwise guarded. It seems that this offense has been carried on more in Alabama than any other state. The attention of the federal government has been called to it, and indictments have been found against some of the accused. It is hoped that the case will be vigorously prosecuted and endeavors made to break up the system all over the south. A colored and white man were lynched in Florida some weeks ago. The lynching spirit and other forms of brutality are rampant in this country and y-t its cit z-an's are protesting against the alleged Russian atrocities. What hypocrites! Hawkinsville Briefs. What beautiful weather we are now having after a long rainy spell. Mrs James Thomas, Miss León Love, Carrie Duhart and Minnie Sutton attended the picnic and closing exercises of Miss Della Duhart's school at Wallace last Friday. They report a pleasant visit. Mr. C. C Logan of Waycross spent last week in the city with relatives and friends of Miss Della Duhart with Hawkinsville last Friday. The game was 13 to 16 in favor of Cordell. May 29 was the day for the Union School School picnic. The hand of death came Friday of last week and climed Mr Anthony Duhart as its own. He was a faithful member of the A. M. F church, and was buried from there Sunday after noon. He leaves a wife, two daughters and a son to mourn his death. The beaver family has the sympathy of all is extended them in their sad hour. Mrs. Martha Floyd of Macon came down Saturday to attend her father's funeral. The Old-Fellows carried a cask of wine to them Sunday. Filipoyo to them gave a pleasant trip. We are glad to say that Kevin Cook was able to fill his pulp at Humony Sunday. Mrs. Emily Chiles died on Saturday caused by drinking too much ice water. The Ladies Social Club meet at Miss Pearl Daniel's last Friday, but the members were so divided until they did not have any business. The Christi in Hope Baptist church gave an entertainment last Friday at Dempsey Clark hall. The Eyangelical Union. The devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. G. I. Word, D. D, which included singing with music by Rev. H. R. Ellis, prayer and reading of the Scriptures. Indeed music will constitute the soul-awakening inspiration of our devotional exercises in future, as Rev. H. R. Ellis was elected a permanent organist for the union, opening the exhilarating anthem "Stand up, stand up for Jesus." Dr. Word read the lesson from the 37 Psalm which afforded a very forcible illusion of a matter which was reported to the union subsequently. Self preservation is said to be the first law of nature in this connection. Owing to important matters strictly personal, it is utterly impossible to render a report commensurate with the transcendent import of matters disposed of, or of the many brilliant efforts displayed among the forensic giants in parliamentary discussions and theological exercises, including abstract remarks and friendly criticism in the various sermonic reports etc., by Reva. Wells, Singleton, Smith, Gatlin, Thomas, Word, Haddlev, Jackson, Taylor, Liviv, Ellis and others. Sermonic reports as following: Rev. S. J. Thomas, reported from 2nd, Chron. 26:15-16, subject "Prosperity and obedience." Rev. E. G. Gatlin, Acts 26:19: I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision; subject "Obadience." Rev. T. N. M. Smith, Matt. 25:25: I was a hunger and ye gave me meat, etc.; subject "The practical side of religion." Rev. H. R. Ellis, Ecol. 12:1: Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth; subject "Our Creator Jehovah, and we are enjoined to remember." Rev. E. D. Mitchel, John 3:3: Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God; subject "Regeneration," or "the new birth." For reasons already stated, it is to be regretted that our usual analytical review of these splendid outlines of excellent sermons. It is possible that an election of officers for the union in pursuance of law, as a final ratification of the charter will be held very soon, especially as the treasurer Dr. J. W. Roberts was compelled to resign on account of his recent promotion as Sunday School Missionary with headquarters in Philadelphia. While it is a foregone conclusion that our matchless presiding officer and efficient parliamentarian, Rev. F. R. Sims will be re-elected without opposition, and also his scholarly coadjutor Rev. Jas. Jackson. For good and sufficient reasons, the secretary will not stand for re-election which forsooth is not necessarily a multum in parvo with noti me tangents floppancy. E Jonathan Nelson, secretary. Baptist Ministers' Union. At the usual hour, the union met at the First A. B. Church, Franklin square, Dr. J. J. Durham, presiding. Devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. J. S. Irby. Having a great deal of unfinished business on hand, with regards to our school, viz. the Savannah Baptist Academy, instead of sermonizing etc. We had a meeting of the board of trustees, of which all present were members. The object of this meeting was to finish all business concerning the school for the term recently closed. After some discussion it was found that the president of the school had left his report at home, and was not prepared to report. The doxology was sung and we adjourned with the understanding that we continue the meeting next Monday. T. McGrand Williamson, reporter. Items of Interest. News comes from D. H. Turner, a Drapgist at Dempasytown, Pa., that Dr. King's New Life Pills are the best sellers in his store. After using them himself he says, "they are truly great; actual experience convinced me.

Among the many good pieces was a recitation, subject "Papa's letter," by Miss Smithie Bridges; Recitation, "The lines that touch liquor shall never touch min'," by Miss Bertha Moody; Sermon, "Bro. Watkins farewell," by Mr. Roscoe Nelson. The exercises closed with a tableau and the following poem: The time has come that we must part, Dear pupils bright and gay. It makes me sad to say good bye. And from you go away. Four months ago, one winter's morn, Together first we met, Since then we've spent some happy days, Those days I'll never forget. Some days we met with cheerful hearts, Some days we've met in gloom, Some days we've seen the drifting snow, Some days the flowers in bloom No more for us the old school bell, Shall ring so loud a clear, And call us from our quiet homes, On mornings quiet or drear. Our mission here will soon be o'er, Our work we'll soon complete, Then we must part and may never more At Baylax Academy meet. I never shall forget your faces bright, Or merry voices sweet. I'll never forget each pleasant smile, Though we may never meet. Miss Sellers and I, our duty did, We've praised, we've lectured, we've toiled And ask that above all things you'll be A model host of boys and girls.

Your grammar, spelling, arithmetic, Geography, reading and pratting, Don't forget my only dears, Your small little sketch in latin.

JONES' BOARDERS. Fy M. A. MAITLAND. I is just fourteen years this month since my poor dear Anthony dled, and left me, as the poet says, "to climb life's rugged steep alone." By Anthony I mean Mr. Jones, of course; and if your name, good reader, happens to be Jones, let me say he was no relation of yours; nor yet of the Jones round' the corner; nor of the Jones at the foot of the hill, whose wife has just had twins for the third time, and all living; but another Jones altogether. Now, I just mention this by the way, and not with any intention of giving an account of my dead husband's antecedents; for, if there is one thing I dislike above another, it is tracing back one's pedigree. Not but what I think Mr. Jones might have had an alderman, or even a judge, among his great uncles or great-great-great-fathers; but I married him for what he was, and not for what any of his relations were. And I hope that none of my friends who are "living on the reputation of their deceased relatives" will think that I am hinting at them; for I am not. As I said before, it is just fourteen years since I was left a widow with one child, a girl of eight. We had laid three beneath the willows, over the hill; so you may be sure I clung to this one with fourfold affection. When the funeral was over (it was quite a respectable funeral; there were twenty-nine carriages, besides two men on horseback), Deacon Wilson was called in to look over my husband's papers. Mr. Jones had asked him to do this before he died, and as I knew the deacon to be an honest and trustworthy man, I was sure they would be safe in his hands, and that he would do the right thing by me and my fatherless child. After all debts were paid, there remained just $400. Of course, the house and lot were my own; I had the deed, and saw it registered myself; but $100 was a very small sum, and my heart sank' when the deacon handed it to me with the remark: "I've done the best I could, Mrs. Jones, but I'm afraid it won't go far. My wife and I were talking of you last night, and we thought it would not be a bad plan for you to start a small grocery. The village is growing, and this new factory will bring a good deal of trade here. Then there are my own hands at the mill: I think I could send a little your way through them. If this partition were taken down, you would have plenty of room for the shop, with your kitchen back of it, which would be real handy." I thank him for his advice and promised to think it over. The partition pulled down! Well, well, and my beautiful little parlor turned into a filthy grocery! The pretty green carpet and the nice cane-seated chairs, that did not look a bit the worse for ten years' wear, put up, perhaps, under the auctioneer's hammer! No, no, not this; anything-but this; at least, not yet! What would poor, dear Anthony have thought of pulling the house to pieces; the house that he had taken such a pride in, too? I looked over at his big arm-chair, almost expecting to see him frown indignantly at the very thought of such a thing; but, there it stood in its old place, and it was empty. Then I thought of Hetty's rosy cheeks, and of the money in my hand. How long would it last? Even with the strictest economy, one year would make a big hole in it. These things passed rapidly through my mind, and it became evident that something would have to be done, and that very soon. The deacon's proposition came up again, and I thought of Tomkins little grocery with its atmosphere of smoke and its carpet of tobacco juice; with its daily loafers and its evening loungers; with its unceasing clatter of cowhide, and its great guffaws. "No, not!" I said aloud; "it can never be!" For, to use the words of Charles Lamb, "the more I thought of it, the less I thought of it." Weeks passed by and I had come to no decision about my plans for the future, when one day Mrs. Porter, a neighbor, who had proven "a friend, indeed" many a time, suggested that it would be a good thing for me to take in a few boarders; I would not feel so lonesome like, she said—with a delicacy that I could not but admire. Now, strange to say, I had not thought of this before, and the idea rather pleased me, as I prided myself on my housekeeping, and had plenty of room to accommodate three or four persons—the house being a two-story frame; so I set about furnishing the two up-stairs rooms, which had never been used, and at the end of three months after my dear Anthony's death, I was ready for my first boarder. I had said nothing to Deacon Wilson of my intentions, but somehow his folks got wind of it, and he called one day to testify his approval of the step which I was about to take, and kindly offered me his two apprentices to start with. "Jane and Liza were going back to school for a spell," he said, "and Mrs. Wilson had too much to see after plone." They were not exactly the kind of boarders I would have chosen—great rough-hewn lads, with battered hats and greasy jackets—but then the pocket-book in the middle bureau drawer was growing thinner and lighter every day; and Hetty, precious Hetty! For myself, I could have borne and suffered a great deal, but pride and prejudice gave way before a mother's love. Mrs. Wilson came over herself with the boys, "just to see them home," she I said, but in reality to bargain about the price of their board. She was a hard-faced woman, whose keen, gray eyes seemed to look into your very soul. That kind of woman who frequents cheap sales and auction marts, ever ready to buy up odds and ends so long as they can be had cheap. "Three dollars a week is far too much for boys—they are but boys," she said. "Why, you can get board at the hotels in the city for that, with waiters and bell-boys thrown in;" and she looked around, disparagingly, I thought, at my little dining room with its rag carpet and plain furniture. The tears started to my eyes at her words, or rather at her looks—for I always was a fool that way; but she didn't see them, I took care of that, for the pie in the oven was just done, and I excused myself a moment to attend to it. "Well, let it be two dollars and a half a week, as you say, for a month at least, until I see how we get on." I said; so it was settled at that, and the up-stairs back room was soon occupied with my first boarders. They were good lads enough, that is to say, they had no bad habits beyond eating with their knives and going to sleep occasionally without undressing, and I think I could have broken them of these faults in time; but bless you, I couldn't feed them and save myself! It may be I began wrong with them, that my table was "too well appointed," as Mrs. Wilson said, .when I gave up my charge at the month's end; but that there was something wrong somewhere. I was ready to adjud. For three weeks a framed placard, bearing the ominous word, "Boarding," hung forth in my front parlor window without attracting any notice, and I began to fear that it would have to be the grocery, after all, when, strange enough, I had three applicants in one day. The first was Becky Raymond, a teacher in the village school, whose father had died the week before, and whose mother was giving up housekeeping and going to live with her married daughter in Chicago. Becky was to have the back room to herself and pay $4 a week. This arrangement was agreeable to both of us, for we had been long acquainted, and I was glad to have such an excellent person in the house with me. The next was a strange lady from some place I had never heard of before—a book agent she called herself—but I didn't like her looks a bit. However, I couldn't afford to be particular, as she offered to pay her board two weeks in advance if I could let her have a room to herself. So my two up-stairs rooms were taken at last. Late at night a gentleman called, who had been recommended to me by a _____, naming a prominent resident. He expected to be in the neighborhood for some time, buying up horses for the army, and would like a room to himself, if po-sible. "It never rains but it pours," I said to Becky, when I went to consult her about the rooms. Neither of the new-comers would be likely to stay with me long, so she was quite willing to share my room for the present, and gave up the one she was promised to the strange gentleman. The two strangers seemed to get acquainted remarkably soon. Indeed, one would have thought they had known each other all their lives, and in less than a week they drove out together and took long walks in the evening. I did not like their goings on at all, for they were not like young folks that one would make some allowance for. He was between forty and fifty, and she, well, she was the kind whose age one can never tell, but no chicken, judging from her ways. I began to think there was something wrong between them, and would have given anything to get rid of them after the first week. I never knew what they really did, as they came and went at all hours, and sometimes together; but they paid their bill, and I could make no charge against them for anything, except their mysterious connections. One night, after they had been six weeks with me, I was awakened by a strange noise, as of something humping and scraping against the outside of the house; and as I listened with beating heart Becky grasped my arm and said: "What's that!" in a frightened voice. At the same time Hetty sat up in her crib and began to whimper. "Hush!" I said, rather sharply, for I wanted to listen that I might find out where the noise really came from, but she wouldn't hush until I took her in beside me, and then all was quiet again; but there was no more sleep for any of us that night. In the morning the up-stairs boarders came down to breakfast as usual; she with her hair frizzled and her face powdered, and he drawing his goatee out to the nicest possible taper between his long, lean fingers. We agreed that nothing should be said about the strange noise until we had examined the premises; but, on examination, no clue could be found, everything was in its usual place, and no sign of burglars anywhere. The next night we went to bed early, as our long waking made us drowsy. Neither of us spoke about what was uppermost in our minds, as we were undressing, for fear of frightening Hetty, for she was very nervous, and fearful of ghosts, so we were all soon asleep. Both Becky and I awoke about the same time, with a strange feeling of suffocation. Day was just breaking, and Becky rose and saggered to the The Principle of Rest. take hold of some problem and concentrate on it until all the mental energy is aroused. This energy is unconsciously communicated to the nervous system, and soon the entire physical self is in a highly tensed condition. Few people realize this until their attention is called to it. They think they must be resting when the body is inactive. It is not necessary that the body be exercising in order to be tense. A set of muscles may be nervously tense and yet be apparently motionless. This difference between a tense muscle and a muscle entirely relaxed, or devitalized, is what I want you to thoroughly understand, for this tense condition brought on by mental and nervous strain, and often held without relaxation for hours, produces greater fatigue than many forms of exercise that are more physical in execution. Remember, always, that the mind is the great controlling power, and it is only when the mind becomes, as nearly as possible, a perfect blank, that the body can rest satisfactorily. If the body would rest the mind must rest also; in other words, "Think rest," "Let go" of everything mental, and relax completely.—The Pilgrim. Government'sBusinessaModel occupies indirectly, through the Controller of the Currency, a supervisory relation to the whole National banking organization of the country. He is the indirect custodian of $800,000,000 of gold and silver coin, stored in the Treasury vaults, against gold and silver certificates in circulation representing that coin, and, through his subordinate, the Treasurer of the United States, he shares the responsibility for the care of more than two hundred million dollars, representing the cash balance which the Government carries. All the Mints and Assay officers are, through the Director of the Mint, under his control. He directs the operations of a great factory employing 3000 operatives in the printing of money and Government securities, and he must there meet the same problems of organized labor that other great employers have to meet. He is responsible for the collection of commercial statistics, and is fortunate in finding a bureau for that purpose which has a record for the best statistical work done by any of the great Governments. He is at the head of the greatest auditing offices in the world, where every dollar of income and every item of expenditure is checked over with minute exactness, so that at the end of the year it is safe for him to say that the whole billion dollars, the total on both sides of the ledger, has been collected and disbursed with absolute fidelity and legality and without error.—From "The Treasury," in Scrillner's. "Foryard, men—forward!" cried Blucher to his weafled soldiers as they were foundering through the mud on their way to join the English at Waterloo. "I have promised my brother Wellington to be there—promised, do you hear? Would you have me break my word?" Americans will never cease to be proud of the reply made by Henry Clay when he was urged to champion a certain cause lest it should jeopardize his chances for the Presidency—"I would rather be right than be President!" thundered back the incorruptible old Roman. When Stephen A. Douglas was at the height of his fame he was approached by the agent of a rich syndicate, who offered him a princely fee if he would lend his advocacy to a certain bill which the syndicate was anxious to get through Congress. The Little Giant's eye flashed fire, and there was a sudden exit of the agent—without his hat! These men had moral courage. Theirs was the highest form of bravery—the bravery which enabled them to bid defiance to the temptation to wrong. Physical courage, we repeat, is something that calls for our admiration. The spectacle of a fellow human being gritting his teeth, clinching his fists and silently, calmly bearing the pain that is killing him, draws from us at once pity and cheers! But grander than any mere physical pluck is the silent courage of the soul, which, though hard pressed by splendid inducements to do wrong, keeps its poise, and in its fight with unprinciple never shows the white feather!—New York Journal. The Value of Human Life. fultal life are not sufficiently developed may be explained from the general state of modern culture. Great revolutions have been effected in the last centuries; life is directed into new channels; old doctrines are beginning to toot; and new ideas demand recognition. An equilibrium, however, has not yet been established. The law of compensation has not yet exercised its power to the fullest extent. Above all, there is still an absence of that energetic concentration which should convert man into a complete and harmonious organic entity, as opposed to the variety and multiplicity without—an entity capable of lifting, combining, and clarifying all the innumerable impressions presented by the heterogenous influence of the external world. An intellectual activity capable of rising superior to all the blows of fate is also lacking. It may, therefore, be said that the centrifugal forces are greater than the centripetal. Labor, with its enormous ramifications, is more powerful than the spiritual force within ourselves. Herein we must seek the answer to the question whether life contains more reason than meaningless complexity and whether true happiness can exist. Life, as conferred upon us, is not invested with a fixed and unchangeable value. It depends upon ourselves what value we are willing to give it. The more man seeks to concentrate his life, the more he seeks to develop a victorious intellectual activity productive of ever higher spiritual strength, the greater will be his ability to confront the complex phenomena of life with cheerfulness and courage. He will then readily understand the words of Vauvemargues: "Le monde est, ce qu'il doit être pour un être actif, plein d'obstacles" (The world is, what it ought to be to an active being, full of obstacles). In our day also happiness and confidence in the national purpose of nature may be obtained by zealously and mightily developing the intellectual life, so that man may face all the multifarious phenomena of life as a unit endowed with strength of character and the power of conviction. Never were there greater possibilities in this direction than to-day; and it devolves upon man to avail himself of them, to the end that he may find good cheer and courage within himself and power to become victorious over the petty and depressing impressions which a first view of prevailing conditions produces. He will then tread the upward path ever sought by the powerful and youthful natures, be they nations or individuals—The Forum, window, which she succeeded in opening after a great effort. The fresh air seemed to revive her, and she came to me, staring with her big eyes, and said: "What is it, and what is this?" as she drew a handkerchief from under my chin. T "I tell you we've been chloroformed! There are murderers in the house, and I'm off for the police!" I jumped out of bed and ran to the crib, but the child was sleeping soundly, and breathing regularly. In less time than it takes to tell it, Becky was dressed and away for help, and I locked my door until I heard her return with some one, who proved to be the police, sure enough. There was no doubt chloroform had been administered to both of us, for we were not then free from its effects. I had not noticed before that my bureau drawers had been opened and ransacked, and, oh! terrible to find that my precious all was gone! Two hundred and fifty dollars and twenty-five cents, every cent I had in the world, besides my dear Anthony's watch, and some valuable jewels of Becky's. It was too, too bad, and we followed the officer of the law up-stairs to rouse our boarders, and tell them of our loss. Imagine our surprise, if you can, when we found that the birds had flown. The beds had never been slept in, but there were the trunks in their usual places, and they were not empty, as we were assured by their weight. These will be something to fall back upon to cover my loss, I thought, as well as to help pay for their last two weeks' board, for we all believed they had committed the robbery, and I knew their clothing was worth something. T When I had legal permission to open the trunks they were found to be filled with blocks stolen from the sawmill close by, and this accounted for the bumping sound we heard the night before the thieves left. They had procured a box and one filled it from below, while the other drew it up and in at the window; while their clothing was, no doubt, removed in the same mysterious way, and secreted somewhere until an opportunity offered for procuring the means of escape. It turned out shortly after that they had passed a number of bogus bills in the neighborhood, and that they were connected with a gang of counterfeiters. I was very chary about taking in strangers after this sad experience, and I may say that I have been very fortunate, on the whole, since then, with just one exception. A few years ago, a gentleman who had been living in the South, brought his wife here by the doctor's advice. She had been raised not far from this, and it was thought her native air would be of some benefit; but the poor thing seemed dying from some unknown cause, and pined away day by day. I tended her as if she had been my own sister, and she died in my arms at last. Poor, poor thing! They said her disease was not consumption, but when she was laid out, her arms were no thicker than a three months' old baby's. Her husband took her death real hard; and he was such a nice man, such a feeling man, and so thoughtful; he reminded me of Anthony so much. He stayed on after his wife died, as if he hated to go away without her. He was so kind to Hetty, too; everything that would save her trouble he was reads to do. And for me! well. I hate to think of it now, but it did seem as if Anthony had come back again, and the old feeling of having some one to depend on grew on me unawares. I daresay it was foolish of me to think he had taken a fancy to me as I had to him. I see it all, now that my eyes are fairly open; but dear, dear, it was hard to bring myself to helpless the truth. There was to be a grand concert. Saengerfest, they called it, in the city, about twenty miles away, and Mr. Hubert (he was a German by birth) would have Hetty go with him and hear the fine music. I did not like to refuse him anything, but was a little disappointed that he did not ask me, seeing I was so fond of music. I never had a thought of mistrusting him with the child (for she seemed but a child to me, though nearly twenty-two) any more than if he had been her own father. You may judge, then, of my astonishment when next day's mail brought me a note from him, stating that they were married. V. Married! My Hetty and Silas Hubert! I couldn't believe it; it seemed impossible just then; but, as I thought over it for days and days, I wondered how I was so blind as not to see that it was her all the time, and not me. Foolish woman that I was—in love at forty-three! Yes, I must confess it; but I pray you, don't think hard of me, for it was all because he was so like Anthony. Silas Hubert took my daughter to his Southern home, and I have just had a letter from them, advising me to give up housekeeping and make my home with them in the land of the magnolias. But, nay, they shall never know what I have told you; for I could keep my secret nowhere so well as here, looking out at the white stone over the hill, beneath which lies all that is mortal of my poor, dear Anthony.—Waverley Magazine.
