The unmarried young people of AlcDonough, Ga., intend forming a "matrimonial alliance." The ob ject of the club will be to secure suitable husbands and wiveB for its members.

Prince Bismarck isn't too old to be wittv. He is reported to have observed that when we read a med ical book we fancy we have all the maladieB it describes, but when we read a book on morals we find that our neighbors have all the faults that it points out. The strike and row in Belgium, occasioned by the conflict between labor and capital, is but one evi dence of many, in all parts of the ci vilized globe, that diBsatietaction . and unrest exist. The whole under ourrent of sooietary conditions has hufln in a state of eruption for vears and these occasional out bursts are but the releasing of some of the fire beneath.

How .Fires Affect People. Ill a fire you get very close down to liumuu nature, observes the New York Hun. The other night an apart ment house took Are. There was no time to be lost by the Inmates. A mother, scantily clad and crying, took out her too little children. A wife buttonedheraelf In her long newmark- etand run, leading her brown-eared setter. A devoted son aud daughter on the top floor dressed warmly their helpless old mother of 80 and waited to carry her, If need be, across the 8 re escape. One woman put on a fur-lined cape over her night dress and came forth with a traveling bag filled with silver. A young widow rau for her new Sunday frock and took down the departed one's portrait. Another young woman left all her belongings and fled in her night dress, blistering her bare feet on the cinders, and ran down the street calling for a carriage. Another got her valuables in her seal skin coat, and Hndiiig the smoke not too threatening, fished out her long tailed gown and the black silk sil houettes of her grandfather and grand mother, which she knew she couldn't replace. One mau contented himself with a bath robe, another dressed himself in his four-lu-haud tie and scarf pin. Mciciitiflo American.

Or., March 17th.. 18Wt. The Irish hojie-rule bill is mak ing slow progress in Parliament. The opposition to it is strengthened by some who in spirit are in favor of Irish home rule but in the adop tion of this bill see so many com plications arising that if it were adopted they believe the next con dition of the Emerald Isler would be worse than his present one. Un just legislation always leads to complex intricacies. England ie not the only country which has tangled things up in this way. The onlv sure way out of such difficul ties is to sweep the whole business oir the statute books and com mence at the bottom with just legislation. . There are no tangles in honest enactments.

West Virginia, will run the first train over the World's Fair grounds on the onenine day of the exhibition Miss Hewitt is probably the only woman locomotive engineer in the world, and follows her prefession from choice, since her lather is man of wealth.

Miss Hewitt's costume on her first 'run at the World's Fair will be that of a Spanish girl of the fourteenth century. m LEBANON Meat Market, WEISNER& BUHL, Proprs.
