PARTINO.
Temple Bar.
You saw me safely up the hill,
(The day was almost spent.)
And there you told me you must go
And we jarted, and you wont.
But I stood still and watched the woods
Glow with the setting sun,
And gazed upon the little jwith
That you were winding down.
AJd there the spire amongst the trees,
SStill in the sunlight gleamed, .
But I turned down the other side,
And oh, how dark it seemed!
In dreams, how many times since then
I've parted from you so
My heart dwells on the hilltop yet,
And fta:ses down below.
Decoy Baby Cradles.
Exchange. '
Three gaudily painted aud improbable
looking cradles stood blisteriujr in the sun
yesterday afternoon near one of the Jersey
City ferries, and were tenderly watched
over by a tall man with long hair and odd
loots, polished with stove blacking and
dotted with red claj The cradles were
evidently not strong or large enough to
' hold a healthy baby, and when a young
couple came up and gazed intently at them
the tall nam talked rapidly aud with great
auiinatiou.
"Certainly they are not for babies," he
said, "aud in order to understand the use
to which these cradles are put you must
first call to your mind the nature of mus
quitoes. and the fact that a great many
Ieople object to sleeping under mustjuito
netting, because it gives them a feeling of
suffocation.
"Very welL A gentleman living in
New .Jersey that's where I was born and
raised) buys one of these cradles, which
are very light and easy to carry, lie takes
it home, stretches a piece of uiusquito net
ting tightly over it. puts it iuto his bed
room and goes to sleep.
"The niustjuito is fond of baby, and has
mi excelsior nature that is, he always
tries to do the hardest thing. He imagiues
there is a baby in that cradle aud he works
hard all night trying to get at it; too busy
even to sing. In the morning the man
wakes up refreshed, without a pimple on
his nose, and finds the musquito panting
and exhausted on the window sill. The
thing is never known to fail. The- are
only 85 cents apiece, and I will sell the
right to manufacture them in any state
but New Jersey for $1.".000. No. I haven't
sold a great main" yet. because true genius
needs time to make itself known. Look
at the fteam engine look at Christopher
Columbus look at Patti look"
The tall man came to anil parted the
hair from his eyes, and the young couple
had tied.
The Cowbo), Sinecure.
Mexican Cor. Minueajiolis Tribune.
We often hear the people complaining
of severe w inters and desiring to remove
to a warmer clime. Others have vivid
dreams of fortunes to be made in such a
laud as this. If there le any such among
the readers of this let .them heed a few
words : of advice. If you are a man of
capital aud wish to engage in mining be
assured that the mountains here are full of
rich deposits of coal, silver, gold ami
other minerals, which will bring you still
greater wealth; or if you would prefer to
be a lord of 1,000 herds, the ranch will be
to vou also a source of great pronit.
If a mechanic or merchant, you can
safely come here when the alove interests
demand men in your line, and not In-fore.
Are you a farmer with small capital?
Then stay where you are, for, lelieve me.
one good county in Minnesota is worth all
New" Mexico for mixed farming all talk
about irrigation to the contrary notwith
standing. The only irrigated portions I
have seen presented a stunted vegetation
compared with that of our state. Then,
too, it t-.tkes capital to irrigate successfully.
Perhaps you sigh for ranch life. "Would
vou be contented to have your ambition
limited -to a pair of leather breeches, a
slouch hat, a revolver and a saddled mus
tang? For without means to invest you
could be nothing but a cowboy.
To one and all I M ould say," in conclu
sion, even were you sure of the greatest
material prosperity in coming hire, it
would not be worth the greatest sacrifice of
those countless associations which you
now enjoy and which may not be found
here for generations to come. I asked a
young man who had been in the country
four years if he had seen much improve
ment in that line. He replied naively:
"Not any to speak of in the country; but
it is getting easier to live here now they
do not shoot people so often. "
The Xejjro' Buzzard Dance."
Macon Mesener.l
"Would you like to see the buzzard
dance?" said Mr. Clay, the gentleman
whose lavish hospitality 1 was enjoying.
-What is that?" said" I.
"Wait a minute, and I'll show you, " he
replied.
We were seated on the broad veranda of
a southern country house, built some fifty
years ago. ; In trout of us a row of
giant magnolias, large as oaks, seemed
in the dim starlitrht freighted with
Lalls of ierfumed snow. To
our right a vast grove of pines were softly
soughing iu the summer breeze, and be
yond them the glare of the blazing knots,
which lit half a hundred cabins, proclaimed
the presence of the "negro quarter. We
were on the Huguenin plantation, in Sum
ter county, a modest farm of H.tMKJ acres.
Kre the minute had elased, Mr. Clay
walked to the end of the veranda and gave
a whoop which would have invoked the
tnvy of a Conimanche Indian aud the
prompt attendance of a Macon policeman.
An answering shout was heard; and
in a few minutes a long line of
dusky forms came stealing through
the shadows of the pines and ranged them
selves in front of where we sat. The
song began and the musicians commenced
to pat. Suddenly into the center of the
open ring leaped the sable dancer who was
to jersonate the buzzard. Though danc
ing in perfect time to the wild but musical
accompaniment, he yet managed to imitate
with marvelous exactness every movement
of the uncouth bird he had chosen for his
model. Its tottering, tip toeing gait was
faithfully delineated, as was also its sud
den springs from right to left, its timid ap
proach, its ravenous peck and sudden re
treat from the craved but dreaded carcass,
which, in bis homely drama, was repre-M-nted
ly a bat that looked indeed like the
buzzards had leeu after it.
A (ood i:iillnli Idea.
Arkansaw Traveler.
Prominent newspajters throughout the
country are now making sieeiai features
of short stories from prominent writers.
This is the English idea, but like m my
an idc:i which we get from the English,
Ls worthy of adoption. Writers of good
short stories are not numerous, cither
in this country or in England. The
production of a. short story requires 'quite
us much literary skill as the production
of a novel; in fact, more dramatic ability
is required, since the incidents of a
short story cannot le drawn out, even
though the writing be pleasant. The
violent political paers are passing away.
The public, unless the matter be of
great importance, no longer cares to read
six or seven columns of political "stuff."
Newspapers, as the rapid educators of
the hurrying masses, . should contain
good literature, even though it were to
exclude the history of a bloody crime.

AN UNFORTUNATE OLD MAN,
Wanting III Photo. Fall Into a Deaf
Slate Dentist's Clutclie.
Arkansaw Traveler. J
A very remarkable case has just come
up before an Arkansaw court. In a
small town not far from the state capi
tal, a photographer and a deaf mute
dentist established an office togt!ier,
and a short time ago au old fellow from
across the bayou entered the pUiee to
have his picture taken. The photog
rapher was out at the time and the
polite dentist, not slow in picking up
little jobs of work, met the visitor
with a smile. The old fellow, ia his
embarrassment, began picking his
teeth with his finger nail aud said :
"I want a picter tuck, mister."
The dentist, understanding the sign
to mean severe toothache, conducted
the old fellow to the torture engine and
eased him back on the cushioned head
rest. What followed is thus detailed
by the old fellow in his statement be
fore the court :
"Airter he got me down on the thing
that looked likcr seat on a railroad car,
he commenced ter fumble aroun over
my face. I told him that I wanted the
picter ter be good lookin, as I wanted
ter -send it to my married darter, an' I
thought he was smoothin' out the
wrinkles on my fa?e, but when he
prized open my mouth an' 'gunter look
down my throat, I thought it a mighty
strange proceedin", still I didu't say
nuthin', as I 'lowed he knowed more
'bout his business than I did. I sorter
shivered when he poked a iron thing
inter my mouth, bat didn't move, as I
'lowed he done it to make my jaw stick
outnachul, but the fust thing I kuowed
airter this, he grabbed aholt o' the
arnry soun' tooth I had in my head. I
struggled an hollered, but it wan't no
use, fur he swung himself roun' an'
twisted the tooth out. I jumped of en
his arrangement when he turned me
loose, an' was gitten' outen thar when
he grabbed me. 1 fit him, but he still
held me. We made sk-h a racket that
a feller come up from down stairs, an'
when the tooth thief made a lot ter
signs an fool motions ter him, he said :
' 'Why don't yer pay him fur pullin
yer tooth?'
" 'I didn't want no tooth pulled,' s'l.
" 'That's a fine way to cheat a man,'
says he. 'If he'd a tuck yer picturthen
you'der said you wanted a tooth pulled,'
an' he cotched mo by the skutf o' the
neck an' led me out, and shoved me
erlong the street. A whole mob jined
in, an' they tuck me ter jail. The mob
howled till I thought they was goin'
ter hang me. I stayed in jail fur three
days, charged with assault an' battery.
Now, jedge, that tooth was worth $100
ter me an' I want that town ter pay me
for it, an' moreover, I want a little
small change fur stayin' in jail."
Hebe Turned Into Bullets.
. . Charleston (S. C.) News.
About thirty years ago Col. W. 13.
Johnston built a large cistern on Mul
berry street, in "Macon, Ga. The cis
tern was ornamented in the center with
a fountain consisting of a beautiful life
size statue of the charming godde-s
Hebe, as she appears in art, a cup
bearer, dispensing nectar at tho ban
quets of the gods. Hebe was perfect in
form and lovely in the graceful manner
in which she held the taukard in oae
hand and poured the unerasing flow of
water into a bowl held in the other
hand. On one occasion a serious ob
jection was niade to her appearance by
an elderly widow from Wilkinson
county, who was the guest of Peter J.
Williams, the landlord of the old Wash
ington hall, which was near the fountain.
."?he asked Mr. Williams what the figure
meant. He described it, and was en
thusiastic in praising the beauty of
Hebe's form and graceful attitude.
"That all may be true," replied the
widow, "but I object to it because she
ought to Lave on some clothes, and I
will subscribe $1 to buy eight yards of
ca'ieo to have a frock made for her."
Several years after, a new council, who
seemed to be less aesthetic than their
predecessors, was elected, when they
passed a resolution ordering Hebe to
be removed to a more secluded place.
Thus the beaut f al statue of the young
goddess w as consigned to darkness in a
cellar until during the late war. When
lead became scarce it was presented to
the Macon arsenal by Mr. Johnston,
where it was melted and produced 2,500
pounds of lead, which were moulded
into Con federate bullets. '
A Moclety Episode of Leap Year.
Washington Cor. Philadelphia Call.
Society, as a sort of jest, has decreed
that any young man who refuses a leap
year proposal from a lady is in honor
bound to present her with a silk dress.
There are a number of "old maids" in
town who have already accumulated
enough silk dresses to stock a dry goods
warehouse. 15ut that is not what I de
sire to say. One day last week a young
man in society here paid a visit to a
young lady friend. They were not en
gaged, but he had given ample evi
dence that he would like to be, if he
could only muster up sufficient confi
dence. He had been fooling along on the
outside edges of an engagement for six
months or more, and the lady began to
grow anxious. It was one of those cases
where both parties floundered around
in tho sweet meshes of love, without
ever coming to an open understanding.
On the evening in question the lady,
half in jest and wholly in earnest, pro
posed to him. He said that s!lks were
unusually high-prioed, and that if she
would be married at once he would
accept. Much to his surprise, she did
accept, and the couple visited the par
sonage of a neighboring clergyman,
where the bride produced the license,
showing that her determination was not
a sudden freak of fancy, and the pair
were made man and wife.
Superstition of Science.
London Graphic
While the old mystical superstitions are
dying out, the superstitious of science are
beginning to haunt ignorant or half-educated
minds with quite as pernicious an
effect. People are no longer afraid of bo
geys or portents in the sky, but they quake
at the mention of miasmas or acids in the
system. The man who is too wise to see
calamity in an overturned salt, cellar deems
it no folly to ascribe gigantic evil;-; to a
dish of strawberries or a packet of cigar
ettes. '

BISHOP SIMPSON'S COMMON SENSE
Some Experience Which Uurdctte
Had in a Reporter.
R. J. Burdette in Burlington Hawkeye.
All the rejxirters liked Bishop Simitstm.
While I was amassing a large but not mi
wieldly fortune on The Peoria Review as a
ubiquitous rejiorter, I was assigned by the
city editor to do the Central Illinois Metho
dist Episcopal conference. I was the city
editor and made all the assignments in tho
city department- I was also the sole owner
and only ubiquitous reporter and took all the
assignments which the city editor niad.
Eugene Baldwin was editor-in-chief. The
staff of The Review was large, but not bulky.
I think its aggregate weight, physically, was
about 2S0 pounds, of which the editor-in-chief
monojiolized 145. Intellectually, it
weighed a ton.
Mr. Baldwin was also managing editor.
There was no business manager. There was
one at first, but he never had anything to
manage. Yes. he had, too. He used to man
age to keep out of sight most effectually on
pay-day. After he starved to death we
moved the editorial rooms we always called
it rooms up to the roof, and left the business
office open for the collector of internal rev
enue to wait in. There were several hun
dred of him, with bills of various amounts,
and I have crteu wondered how he amused
himself down in the deserted business ofhVe,
waiting for somebody to come in to whom
he could present his bill. Well, I was speak
ing of the Central Illinois conference. Bishop
Simpson presided. George Kent was there;
he was the city staff of The Transcript. 11 A.
Snively w as the city editor and local corps of
The National Democrat. We went early,
seized a big table belonging to some secre
taries, possessed ourselves of. their stationery
and things and calmly waited for tho confer
enco to confer.
First thing after the opening exercises, a
good brother arose and called attention to the
presence of the reporters "within the bar" and
suggested that they be assigned a place with
out the sacred precincts. We felt very badly
about it as the suggestion win warmly sec
onded, but while we were wondering if we
could carrv the big table with us, the xSishop
looked down upon us kindly an said, ia a
soothing way, "Oh, well, brethren, never mind.
If the rejiorters can stand it I guess-the breth
ren can." We stood it I remember one
thing, he said, near the close of the confer
ence, in his talk to the class of young mn
who stood up to receive his charge." "And,"
he said, in tho course of his remarks, "I have
heard young men in the depth of their hu
mility say, 'I am willing to Ihj a jkxi de
spised Methodist preacher.' Now, brethren,
if you are poor it is your own fault, ami if
you are despised it is because you are despic
able." And then he talked more common
sense to those young men in live minutes than
some men are privileged to hear in as many
years.
That must have been somewhere about '70,
I think, '71 maybe. I never saw hint again
until I met hiia a year ago, iu Chester, at the
commencement of the Military Academy of
Pennsylvania. An old man he was thea, full
of years and honor, past the allotted span of
human life, revered and esteemed by Chris
tians of all denominations, a good citizen and
a good man, a rare executive, a most ef
fective preacher and a comprehensive
scholar.
All Sort of Flavoring.
New York Mail and Express.
'We manufacture most of the flavorings
you see here," said a merchant to a reivrtei
"Some little is imixirted from Italy, France,
and Germany, but the duty is so heavy
2.50 per pound that it docs not l y."
"What kind of extracts do you use princi
pally, and who buy them.'"
"Fruit sij-ups, oils, perfumes, bottlod ex
tracts, coloring, and tobacco flavors. They
are urjed by confectioners, soda-water I Me
tiers, perfumers, druggists, brewers, ami
cigar an.tvtobacco manufacturers."
"Can you explain the manufacture and
use?"
"The manufacture is a secret, and it would
not do to give it away. They are principally
extracts from pure fruit, but in some in
stances chemicals are used, but never so as to
be injurious. The uses they are applied to
are many; all the nice confectionery is fla
vored with some fruit sirup, extract of oil of
almonds being very iopular, and costing
about S12a pint free from prussic acid. You
may be surprised to know that as a ride the
various brands of tobacco are formed through
the use of soiue flavor. See, here we have
Havana cigar flavor, Santiago, smoking to
bacco flavor, and even cigar coloring. Here
are the directions: Dissolve one pint of this
flavor in four gallons of water, or in one gal
lon of alcohol and three gallons of water.
"Are not some of these flavors very expen
sive r'
"They vary in price from $50 cents Tier
pound to $1.5(). Oil of attar of roses is 12
an ounce. Oil of cinnamon, used iu confec
tionery, is i'2 an ounce. Root beer, sarsapa
rilla, lemon, strawberry, and such like are
worth $40 per gallon."
A Sea Brake.
Inter Ocean.
A novel invention, which promises to bo
come decidedly popular on the upper lakes,
where there is so much fog and collision, has
turned up. It consists of an appliance to
stop a vessel which is running at full head
way. The name given the invention is "sea
brake." The steamer Florence is, now using
one. On each side of her stern port is hinged
a great fin. made of boiler-plate braced with
angle iron. The fins aie arranged to
fit in the rim of the vessel, where
they are secured by simple catches, which
are controlled through lines leading from the
pilot-house. When these lir.s are closed
they press against springs, so that when the
catches are released the tins are thrown out
from the side of the ship and are caught by
the water. If the vessel is under headway
they are instantly thrown out until they
stand at right angles with the keel. As they
assume this position they bring up against
powerful springs. The effect of opjiosiiig
thi3 170 square feet of boiler iron to the for
ward progress of the Florence was tested last
Tuesday. She was under a full head of
steam, making, iierliaris, fifteen miles an
hour. . A schooner ahead of her came up sud
denly, and was standing across the Florence's
bow. Capt. Simmons yelled to the pilot to
let out tho brake, and the Florence slopped
within her own length. Either brake can lie
used separately, and thus throw the vessel in
any directum quicker than if the rudder were
relied iiKii alone.

" PERMANENT."
There are medicines which give onlv
temporary relief and then leave the suf
farer worse off than before, especially in
cases of dyspepsia. Remember that this
is not the way with Brown's Iron Bitters.

Cal., are fitted to make one eiht hy twelve feet or 95
wiuare feet. It is astonishing how the demand for plates
has increased lately, and Mr. Denniston, the proprietor,
is satisfied at ins success beyond all expectation. Almost
every quartz will on tne l'aciiic (toast is lifting his plates
with great success, and a lare numlH-rare already in use

plated amalgamating plates fur Alaska, amounting t)
alioiit $5,00t. The extensive facilities and first-clas-i
reputation of his amalgamating plates has enabled him
to secure tins order from all other competitor. The San
Francisco Plating Works has all the latest improvement
known to the business. The plating is done ny a large
Mather dynamo-electric machine. Every description of
metal goods is plated here with gold, silver, nickel, plat
inum, broi.ze. etc., and finished in the highest style of
the art. Visitors who care to see it will at any time lie

A WONDERFUL CURE. j
(From the San Francisco Chronicle.) j
A young man J. L. McKee), a resideni
of this citv for years, and well known,
gives us the facts of the following remark
able cure, lie says: !
"For years I sult'ered with Catarrh in its
worst form. So severe was the disease
that the bones of my nose became decom-
Eosed and small pieces came from it. My
reath became so offensive that I was
compelled to eat alone. In despair I had
given up all hopes of being cured, having
tried everv known remedy. At this time
I met Dr. Evory who had been cured by a
remedy discovered by himself, Diamond
Catarrh Remedy. I tried it, with little
faith, but at (he end of three months found
myself cured." Price 50c per bottle. For
sale by Hodge, Davis & Co., C A. Plura
mer & Co. and Clarke, Woodard & Co.,
Portland, Or.
ANOTHER LD7E 8AVED.
Mrs. Harriet Cummins, of Cincinnati, Ohio,
writes: "Early last winter my dauhter was at
tacked with a severe cold, which settled on her
lungs. We tried several medicines, nona of
which seemed to do her any good, but Bhe con
tinued to tfet worse, and finally ,raised large
amounts of blood from her luns. We called
iu a family physician, but he failed to do her
auy good. At this time a friend, who had been
cured by DR. WM. HALL'S BALSAM FOR
THE LUNGS, advisjd me to give it a trial.
We then not a bottle, and she began to improve,
and by the use of three bottles was entirely
cured."

The experience in the treatment of Cancer with Swift'i

afflicted are invited to correspond with us.
I believe Swift's Specific has saved roy life. I had vir

V. K. Kobison, Davisooro, Ga
Two month at?o my attention was called to the casr
of a woman afflicted with a cancer on her shoulder at
leant ttve lucues in circumference, angry, paiDful, and
piving the patient no rest day or night f r six months.
I obtained a supply of Swift s Specino for her. She ha
t iken S bottles and the ulcer ia entirely healed op, only
a very small scab remaining, and her health is better
than for 6 years past; seems to be perfectly cured.
Kev. Jehsk H. Campbell, Columbus, Ga.
I have setn remarkable results from use of Swift'i
Specitic on a cancer. A young man here has ba-u
afflicted five years with tho most angry-looking eating
cancer I ever saw, and was nearly dead. The first bot
tle made a wonderf ul change, and after five bottles wer
Ukeu, he is nearly or quite well. It is truly wonderful.
