Grant Co. News' i'OUI.IsUHU KVUttV THOKSDAV MOItyiNO A New Hampshire woman ha? set out to count the kernels of corn on 50,090 full sized cobs and at last report she had got through with 3,000 cobs and was not di.-eo.i raged. Thc deniQcrat ic governor of Indiana broke up the ''White Cap'5 organization in that state, and they removed operations over to Ohio and Pennsylvania, where they fecm to be operating undistu rbed. A bill has been introduced in tiie Nevada legislature imposing a tine of 10 on any woman who wears a hat at a theatre over three inches hhrh. After a live ly tight in the house, the bill was ordered engrossed. "We have great respect for that school "deestriet" in Kan sas that has refused to have grammar taught. The study of grammar, as usually taught, causes more profanity among the boys and headache among the girls than all other studies put together. "What's in an executive name? The CJovernor of Illinois is a Kifer: of California, a Water man; of Arkansas, an Eagle; of Colorado, a Cooper; and Kew Jersey has a Green execu tive. A Fowie cackles over North Carolina and a Jeaver works for Pennsylvania. Mrs. (inrtiehl has an income of $25,000, 5,000 of which comes from the government in the shape of a pension. Gen eral Garfield's estate netted the widow about 810,000, and in addition she received $25,000 insurance on hi life. Congress gave her $40,000, and the pop ular subscription raised just af ter Garfield's death amounted to $312,000. Patsy Card ill has signed ar ticles of agreement to fight Pe ter Jackson, the colored pugi list, in April. The tight will Ikj to a finish with small gloves, under the auspice.; of the Cali fornia Athuletic Club, of San Francisco. The winner to re ceive $2500 and the loser $500. Onrdilf has gone into active training and says he will fight to a finish; it is fiisfurte and that he exacts to win. There is a farmer living in Fulton county, Georgia, who has the most useful head of hair on record. His hair is more like the wool of a sheep than anything els?. It is soft and long and curls but little. It is about the color of the wool on the back of a brown sheep. That genth-mun prizes his pecu liar hair very highly, and he al so makes good use of it, for he has sevorai jiirs of socks and a nice warm pair of gloves made? from hair cut from his own head. James G. Blaine, Jr.. has suddenly displayed a gooil deal of the independent spirit of Genuine American manhood, lie has exhibited nerve enough to flofi' hi.-good clothes and darn the rough of an app! entice in the machine slufys of the Maine ! Central. It is a rare thing for the sons of distinguished politi cians to attempt, iho m.istery of any of the useful mechanical trades. Young Mr. Ilaino is therefore entitled to more than ordinary praise for deserting the ordinary course of men of his class and enter the ranks of one of the most useful and honora ble of all the mechanical trades. A writer, who is si goo 1 ob server, and has considerable ex perience, thus defines the differ once between the old and young. There is, he says, a wide gulf between youth and ripe old age, hence the proverb: ''You can't put an old head on young shoulders.' This proverb was written by an old man: youth has nothing to do with it. Youth don't believe the old man knows anything and the old man expects continually that the young man will be along saying: didn't know it was loaded.' The wise young man will seek the counsel of those ripe in years and experi ence and avoid the mistakes in life. But young America will continue to figure in the divorce courts, and compound his debts at ten cents on the dollar. lie don't want to be told that it is loaded, lie prefers to find out himself. lie gets there and pays the piper generally.
