Outrages Upon Free Masonn Their
Lodges Burned and Destroyed by


| The desecration and burning of idason-
ic Lodges by Grierson has caused, as we
learn by accident, no little excite,n ent a
mong the mystic brotherhood. The New
England Masons have publicly repud lated
thei: obligations, and declared that their
"brethren" of the South are not dee med
masons. Grierson, himself Mason, ac-
cepts the New England creed and disre-
CARDS the obligations Of the order. When
he frat entered upon his career Of crime,
as a soldier, he burned the MaSons' Lt,d ge
at Rising Sun, in West Tennessee.
The then commander of the depart
ment condemned Grierson's conduct, and
compelled him TO make restitution. It.
seems, however, that he has received spe-
cifc instructions to destroy every vcs-
tige Of Southern Masonry. lie burned
the Masons building in Verona, and also
at Okalona. The wife of a colonel in our
service, who is Mason, made herself
known as such, and was ruthlessly driven
from her house with an infant in her
arms. Her house was plundered and
burned
Masons may fight each other 10 The
death on the battlefield, but when the
field is lost or won, their obligations as
members of world woe fraternity are
revived, and philanthropy suppants
b.oodlhirstiness and barbarity. 1t is said
that the Masons at Verona, Okalona and
adjacent points have offered a large sum
for the head of Grierson If we are cor
rectly informed, it becomes the duty of
every Mason in the world to take his life.
If that absurd old story about the death
of Morgan has any foundation, it surely is
not improbable that some loyal Mason
will put an end TO Grierson's career of
plunder, rape and robbery .-Mdcon Beacon

Farmers, Look to your Seed Corn.

4+aAaaiAtelligent and obseryant farmer called
upon us during the past week, and asked us
10 advise our farmer friends to look we'll to
their Seed Corn this Spring He says that
nearly all the corn that has stood in the shock
during the past winter is so frozen that the
heart is frozen and it will not grow if plant
ed. This is owing to the fact that the shocks
were wet when the .old weather came last
fall and they were frozen together, giving the
corn no chance to dry out Corn that has
remained on the uncut stalk is generally alive
and will grow if planted To tell whether
the heart of the kernal of corn is dead, split
it in Two, and if the heart is nearly white and
mealy it will grow-if it is watery and of
light purple color, it is dead and will not grow
If planted. Our informant states that corn
with the heart dead cannot be told but upon
examination, and that for all purposes except
planting,-the fact that the heart is dead.
will not injure the corn This is an import
matter to farmers, and if they do not wish to
lose their labor in planting and their crops
after having planted it behooves them to see
that they have good, healthy corn for planting.
We should like to hear more of this subject
from the farmers of our county.--Bucyrus

invited forward and asked to speak whatever
he wished.

added; "When saw how my angel daughter
