The prospects are good for a large
crop al around.-Nash,,u Post, Nan

Rain is much needed in these
parts just now. Painting is going
forward rapidly and "a much larger
breadth will be planted in corn than
ever before. Wheat, oats, rye and
ilax already up are looking well. A
good full crop of farm produce, with
general health among the cattle and
hogs, will do more to relieve the
country than all the special financial
and railroad Legislation we have had or
are likely to have.--1tim T,buae,

Farmers are busy with corn plant
ing, which in few days will be
completed. The early planted corn
is coming up, and looks fine. Wheat
and other grain never looked better.

Recently there were published in
the journals the particulars of the
tragic death of young Sutton, who
TELL from train at Burgettstown
and sustained injuries which after
wards proved fatal. 1t appears that
the unfortunate young man had been
instructed by the conductor of his
train, Mr.. Peter Wynne, to go to the
rear and flag another train. While
proceeding to comply with these Or
ders he fell upon the track and was
run over by FIVE cars and the caboose
His legs were cut of just above the
knee, but young Sutton remembered
his orders, cleared the track Of the
dismembered portions of his own
body, and taking flag from his
pocket, waved it until he had stop
ped the train, which was approaching.
But for this heroism other lives must
have been lost, as coils
ion was inevitable.

Educated labor is always in demand
Commercial Colleges well conducted
supply an obvious educational need
The course Of instruction is essentially
and pointedly practical. 1t is not in lieu
of, but rather supplementary u, school

these with the every day duties and

contemplating LIFE OF BUSINESS can,
in my judgment, most profitably pursue
