\ sort of patios has long been in use 10 the
open ports of China between Cinnamon and
"western devil" as they call outsiders, known as
Pigeon English, that Is, the business language
between the two. Pigeon is the nearest the
Chinese get to the word business. Now the
Cinnamon trying to articulatc in the English style
mix their language in with it strangely. and il
sounds comica to the Eugishman or Amerl-
can, that he finds himself talking in the same way,
and the Cinnamon taking it for granted that i: is
right, because the English speaking talk SO,
have established it as their business venacular.

The mysterious disappearance fthe young lady
in Augusta last week. has caused a profound SEN
satiGn all along the iver, and 1t Is time for Us 10
a ~ how do we know but it will be our turn next
We have referred to tramps in town before,
and we men folks know how TO deal with them,
but how shall we protect daughtersi AS VII
famous set of looking rascals provided
around any community are often seen passing
along the railroad, a little concealed from the
street. and we don't know who these precious fell
lows are. We advise all who care for the safety
of their daughters, not to allow them to go out
alone after dark, even at nght-tall, or we shall
have to record trouble in that direction here. A
couple Of rutfans with boat at hand could
elude all pursuers, and let us not forget that
liable to these depredators as our neghbors
up-river. Many Of the neighbors in the back part
Of the town pass and repass through lonely strips
of woods; let them beware, for they know not
who is Turk ing there.
Hay pressing has begun in town, and the bust
ness will be pretty good
The apple crop here is very slim indeed, but po-
tatoes and other crops are reported good.
