The CrOM.

We have smiled somewhat over an
obituary notice of his pet crow printed
by Bellefontaine (Ohio) editor. He
was an acute, intelligent, and interest
ing bird, and he has "gone to the
shining shore" He could initiate the
notes of the blue jay, the bark of the
faithful watchdog, and, to some extent,
the human voice. He had his faults.
The women accused him of hooking
their clothes-pins and of hankering alter
their hair-pins, but it was universally
agreed that he meant no harm. Be
guiled by his captivity of the instinct
which guarded him from dangeR in his
natural state, he fell an easy victim to
the cruelty OF some wanton, and is now
beyond the reach of the despicable
meanness and miserable cowardice
which prompted his destruction T. No
doubt he would have been willing to
die if he had known what fine things
would be said of him in the newspapers.

A WIFE's DEvoTIoS.-Mary Costigan
was murdered in Somers, Connecticut,
last autumn. She was found with her
throat cut, but she lived long enough
TO make q sworn statement that her as
sailant was Frank Powers, negro Of
the neighborhood. She told circum-
stantial story, and nobody doubted the
guilt of Powers, who was at once
arrested. Subsequent revelations, how
ever, showed that the real murderer
was her husband, and that the wife
died with perjury on hor lips to shield
him from punishment for his crime.
His trial has Just ended in his convic-
tion of manslaughter.

Photographs

Some surprise was manifested when
the Graphic assertsd that unless man
copyrighted his photograph he had no
exclusive claim to it. In other words,
aman publishes his face by photograph
ing it, and any one has right to use
and sell such photographs so long as
they are not copyrighted. This view
of the matter has recently been sus
tanned by the English courts, as will be
seen by recent letter in the London
Times, and it is now the recognized law
in England that the ownership of pho
tographs is vested in the photographer,
and not in the sitters. Whenever the
question is brought before our courts
it will be decided in the same way. The
idea that man can scatter his photo
graphs broadcast and still claim the
right to say whether this or that illus
trated paper shall use them is mani
festly an absurdity which no court
could venture to uphold.

Wallace McGregor' S
REVENGE.
BY FRANKLIN d. GAGE.
CHAPTER /,

CHAPTER l.
Wallace McGregor was ScOtchman by
birth. He was the youngest of three sons,
Many years ago his two elder brothers emf
grated to the Green Mountain State, and
settled upon the banks Of the Connecticut.
There was quite little colony of Scotch
people settled in the same vicinity. This
was at time When the brothers were young
men. 1t was when Wallace was little
boy not more than three years old.
Wallace's father and mother were very
careful of the training of their children.
Wallace was trained up to perfect honesty,
and great reverence for the sacred script
ures. These early lessons were not only
inculcated by precept but they were strength.
eued by daily example. Under such train
ing Wallace, being of thoughtful, studiOus
temperament, grew up to be model OF in
tegrity aud virtue.
About the time Wallace become Of age his
father and mother died. Having but little
to keep him in the home Of his nativity, and
having Aattering letters from the new world,
he resolved to cmigrate and join his broth
ers. So he came over the ocean, and arrived
safely at his brothers house, Here he found
the other brother had died only few
days previous The brother still living
Donald McGregor, had settled on farm
near the little village which had sprung up
and had gone to housekeeping.
In temperament Donald Was very different
from Wallace. Although strictly honest, he
was very penurious. His wife being equally
so they had managed to save money beside
buying and paying for the farm. lie ha'
three children, of which Donald was the old
est, then about ten years old.
Wallace was engaged by his brother Il
work on the farm He was robust and will
ing to work. For FIVE years he worked OIL
and gave his brother satisfaction. No on
was considered better hand on the farm
than he. He was loved aud respected b.
all who knew him.
Farmer Bryan lived near Donald McGreg
or. lie had daughter Mary, near Wallace
age. In the course of events. it was natura
that Wallace should admire Mary, for sh
was girl fair to look upon. Nor was
more Unnatural that Mary should admire tn
strong, handsome Scotch lad who had cross
cd the ocean from her fathers native lane
At length it was resolved that Wallac
should buy farm, and then he and Mar
would marry. So the sixth year after Wa
lace touched the soil of the new world b
found himself on farm, at the end Of tn
village opposite his brothers, and Mary Bry
an had become his wife.
Ten years had passed away, and they wei

AWOrd TO the Wise

Why is it that so many people become
dissatisfied after buying a bill of dry
goods and on taking them home become
dissatisfied with their purchases
You will find in nine cases out of ten
that their dissatisfaction arises from hav-
ing bought their goods in dark gloomy
rooms not haYing sufficient light to show
the quality or shade of fine goods. This
difficulty can now be Ovbiated by buying
goods at Carlisle s. Tyler's plate front,
perfectly lighted store and the only well
lighted store in the county, as the light
in the centre and rear of the room is
more perfect than the fronts of other
stores.
Buyers can not only have the benefit OF
this perfect light, but they can always
be sure of getting the very lowest pri-
ces, having the largest stock of goods
to select from in the county. Messrs.
Carlisle 6 Tyler have put in their new
rooms an unusually large stock of good 5.
bOughtfO cash al the closing out sales of
New YORK jobbers. and the price they
are selling them at, will soon clear them
off their shelves.
This firm are also offering some extra
inducements for the holiday trade, by
adding to their stock lot of fancy goods
which they will sell at unusually low
prices. We would advise every one that
likes to see fine store well filed with
choice goods to step in at Carlisle & Ty-
ler's.
