Coop ADVICE. Many good people are
m1ch troubled by the multiplicity of duties
they see 50 much to be done, that they are
ever in worry and hurry, and thus are IN
danger of doing nothing we'll, aud also OF leav-
iny many things undoue. In then eagerness
to do great things of their calling, they are apt
to overlook what seems to be the smaller con-
Germs which. perhaps, lie just at hand. They
are looking ahead and aloft, and pass over what
really ought TO be attended to and which, if at.
trlled and thus put out OF the way, would lead
on naturally aud quietly to greater works. :
These little things may be Indispensable to the
ACCOMPLISHMENT of the greater They may be
the little stones which together make up the
building. They may be the first rounds OF the
ialder leading to the lottier heights OF achieve
nent.
Now let such persons consider what the great
German poet, Goethe, said, and he hardly ut
Ter wiser one: do the thing that lies next
you" Be it little, do it, 1t may be great III
us necessary relation to something else. Neglect
not the present-the Immediate thing The
person who adopts this rule will do world OF
work-a world Of good He will begin at
home in his little circle and so branch out as
each day gives new and, perhaps, wider opror-
luaities.
The Daubury News, which has as little rev
ereuce as any paper in New England, says that
a baggage master in that town is recovering
from an Injury lately received, and adds, "iic
Was so much better this morning as to be able
to put his foot through several bardboxes, and
the doctors think that in few days he can Try
a few light valises, and, perhaps, one or two
dressing cases that have been started little
with an axe. But it will be some time before
he can hope to face full grown trunk.

HOW Justice is Administered IN Kan
" a"'.i sas. .... ." .fe

The following are briefly the facts concern
ing double murder in Abram, Lincoln coun-
ty, perpetrated on February 4th; 1t appears
that feud has existed for some time past be-
tween Ezra Hubbard and John Haley in re-
lation to land contest. On last Friday Hub
bard was drawing some logs, claiming that
they belonged to him. One word brought on
another till they got into desperate alterca-
ton, when Hubbard shot Haley through the
breast, killing him instantly. Hubbard then
went and gave himself up to the Sheriff.
In the evening party of Haley's friends
went to the house where the Sheriff had Hub
bard confined and under four guards, and de-
manded the prisoner. The Sheriff refused
to surrender, whereupon the party fired into
the room where Hubbard was, and two balls
entered his body. The demand was again
made upon the Sheriff, but he still refused to
give him up. The whole party then made q
rush for the door and succeeded in breaking
in and passing the guards. They went into
the room in which Hubbard was, and one of
them seized carpenters mallet and literlly
smashed his head into jelly. Having ac-
complished their eowardly purpose, the whole
party left. Hubbard was taken to Salina and
buried the following Sunday ro.sas5I7,n.
