The Bad Intelligence reached ns last
Wednesday morning at 12:30 of the
sudden death of Ubarles Knighton,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Knighton,
by the explosion of dynamite, men
tion of which has already been made
In The Mail of last week. The oorpBe
was brought out on Wednesday night
by Mr. Vaughn, a brotber-in-law of
the deceased, and the remains were
followed to their last resting place to
Phoenix by quite a number of the
friends of the family from this plaoe.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. Jones, of Central Point.
There seems to be a singular chain of
divine providence lu conneotlou
with the family. The first death was
that of their only daughter, a young
lady. She started from home in her
usual health, on horse back, and in
fifteen minutes tho word came to her
mother that she was dead. Then
their youugest son, Edward, started to
go to chop wood and fell into a ditch
and was never restored to conscious
ness, but died in a very short time,
and. this last case was equally as sad.
The bereaved relatives have thesympa

Some Seasonable Advice.
It may be a pieoe of superfious ad
vlee to urge people at this season of
the year to lay iu a supply of Cham

satisfacory results are obtained when
taken as soon aB a cold 1b contracted
aud before it has become settled iu
the system, whioh can only be done
by keeping tho remedy at hand. ThiB
remedy is bo widely Known aud so al
together good that no one should hes
itate about buying it in preferenoe to
any otner. it is tor sale by -Unas.

Tb First French NaT?,
Away back la tbe eighth century
Charlemagne bad organised a sort of
coast guard by enrolling all tbe sea
board population who lived within one
and a halt tulles of tbe shore, but
with tbe dismemberment of tho vast
Carlovlnglan empire all dreams of na
val greatness were dissipated. Long
afterward Charles V. built some mil
ltary nefs on tbe' Atlantic, and Louis
XL's galleys chased tbe Barbary pi
rn tea who infested tbe shores of the
Mediterranean, but It was Francis L
apparently who first conceived tbe idea
of a war fleet, purchased and equipped
from the royal treasury.
He converted tho small fishing vU
lage of Havre into a fortified port,
which speedily attracted commerce to
tbe mouth of tbe Seine, and he pro
jected a scheme which he did not live
to realize for tbe construction of an
oceanic navy under canvas. "Fleets
were massed in tbe Mediterranean,"
writes Mr. Norman in bis "Corsairs of
France," "and for tbe first time In
history a French squadron, passing
through tho strait of Gibraltar, de
feated an English fleet off Brest, and
then, moving round to tho eastward,
drove off tbe blockading squadrons of
Henry VIII. from Boulogne."
An Eloquent Critlclam.
Theodore" Thomas, in conducting an
orchestra, seemed Impassive, Imper
turbable. A writer In the Outlook com
menting upon this says that bo was ap
parently without passion or feeling,
yet the appearance was not reality,
and at one of Mr. Thomas rehearsals
It was fully contradicted.
At a certain point In tbe symphony
tbe orchestra was playing In perfect
time and tune, but with a certain me
chanical effect which no one bad no
ticed until Mr. Thomas suddenly
rapped the music stand before him.
Tbe orchestra stopped. Then with
his band he imitated the action of an
organ grinder.
With only a word to Indicate the
bar at which the orchestra was to take
up tbe music, be struck tbe rack be
fore hm for attention, and with a
movement of bis baton gave the signal.
Tbe orchestra repeated the passage
be bad criticised by dumb Bhow, and
this time it played with spirit and
fire.
A Silent Land.
In the rainless Interior of Australia
there is a silence of tbe grave. This
deathlike silence has a peculiarly de
pressing effect If two men are
camped and one of them goes to a dis
tant township to get provisions while
the other remains behind to look .after
tbe camp, the man who Is to remain
says to his mate in forcible gold fields
language, "Now, BUI, don't you bo long
away. You know what kind of a place
this Is to live hi by yourself." If his
mate Is away for two or three days,
the alienee gets upon tbe man's nerves,
and in tbe end he snouts In orxler to
make a noise, and then be Is afraid of
the sound of bis own voice.
Cinnamon.
Ceylon provides us with the bulk of
our cinnamon, which is tho aromatic
bark of certain trees common to that
island. The trees are never allowed
to grow higher than ten feet During
the season of harvesting, of which
there are two a year, the brunches of
three to five years growth are cut
down and the top surface of tho bark
scraped away. Then the bark Is ripped
up longitudinally into slices, which
when exposed to the sun to dry curl
up Into quills. In the course of drying
the oil, upon which the. aroma and
flavor depend. Is diffused throughout
the bark.

Indifference.
Indifference may not wreck the
man's life at any one turn, but it will
destroy him with a kind of dry rot In

at ail Is to be watery and supine.

A young woman of great, perhaps

A similar criticism came from one
who suffered, not from overrefuie

ferent. She was a woman of recently
acquired wealth, who went Into an art
gallery and asked for a painting of a
certain size. "I have Just what you
want," said the dealer. lie showed
her a "beautiful animal painting, but
she looked at It for a tew minutes and
then shook her head. "It won't do,"

According to the common law of Eng
lond there can be no theft of things
which form pail of or are attached to
tho soil, and thero Is no stntuto or pen
alty against the gathering of wild flow
ers in a field or wood. Most people at
some time or other have paused at the
fearsome legend, "Trespassers Will Be
Prosecuted," printed on tho menacing
board which lawyers have described as
a "wooden liar," for, as a matter of
fact, the mere walking across another
man's field Is no more a criminal of
fenso than to walk along tho highroad.
If tho trespasser does no actual dam
ago thero Is no ground for prosecution,

merely nominal damages, and none

taking action. London Globe.

churches In England. For lnstanco, in
tho records of Yatcley church, which
dato from 15-13, aro frequent references
to "church ales," tho object of which
waa to get money for church expenses.
Tho feast was organized by the
church wardens, ,4who provided a good
spread ut bo much a bead, and credited
Uio profits to tbo church expenditure."
It first appears ns tho "church ale."
then ns tho "king's ale," then Inter as
"our banquet at Whitsuntide." It wns
probably held in tho church nnd went
on until 1(M8, Uio year after tho civil
war hroko out, when probably tho
Puritans put an end to such festivities.
It won populnr evidently.
Ono enterprising churchwarden has
left on record all tho good things which
wero prepared for Uio Crondall
"church ale" in tho year 15S7. They
had a band, brewed a qnnntlty of ale,
and mndo a profit of ?12. As money
was then worth nearly ten times as
mnch as now, tho "church alo" may bo
aid to havo brought in about ?400,
which was just 100 per cent on the
outlay. Tbe bond was hired for four
days.
