The Colorado River Is noted for swirls,"
so-called They occur everywhere, but only
at high stages of water. A bubble rises from
the bottom and breaks with a slight sound
on the surface. The water at the point be-
gins a rotary motion, so small that an inyert-
ed teacup might cover il. larger and larg-
er grows the circle, till a surface Of forty feet
in diameter is in motion, spinning round
funnel-shaped hole in the centre, two or three
feet across at the top, and coming 10 point
in the depths below. Often large tree
floating down the stream is caught and its
foremost end thrust in the air twenty or ihir-
ty feet, while the other passes undern ath
the exposed end to be slowly drawn down
again, and 10 disappear, Three soldiess-

NRruE IN WmsrLNG.-An old farmer
once said 10 rs that he would not have a
hired man on his farm who did not habitu-
ally whistle lie always hired whistlers.
said he never knew whistlmg laborer to
find fault with his food, his bed, or com
plain Of any little extra work he vas asked
to perform. Such man was generally kind
to children and 10 animals in his care. lie
would whistle chilled lamb into warmth
and life, and would bring in his hat full Of
eggs from the barn without breaking one OF
them. lie found such a man more careful
about closing gates, putting up bars and see
ing that the nuts on his plow were all prop
erly tightened before he took il into the
field. lie never knew awhistling hired man
70 kick or beat COW, nor drive her on a run
into a stable. lie had noticed that the
sheep he fed in The yard and she'd gathered
around him as no whistled without fear.
lie never had employed whistler who was
not thoughtful and economical.

LoyE.-The love that survives The tomb is
the noblest attribute of the soul If it has
woes, it has likewise its delights and when
the overwhelming burst of grief is lulled
into the gentle tear of recollection, then the
sudden anguish and convulsive agony over
the present ruins of all we most loved are
softened away into pensive meditation Of all
that it was in the days of its lovelinoss.
Who would root such u sorrow from the
heart Though it may sometimes throw a
passing cloud over the bright hour of gaiety
or spread a deeper saduess over the hours
OF gloom, YET who would exchange it for the
song Of pleasure or the burst of revelry
No there is a voice from the tomb sweeter
than song; there is a remembrance Of the
dead 70 which we turn even from the charm
Of The living.

A GOOD man and wise man may at times

ladies again entered the saloon, when they
were insulted by offers Of beer, and having
their health drank by the maudlin crew.
At this stage OF the proceedings, q num-
Der Of gentlemen, including DR.. swaney,
entered the saloon, when the latter COM
menced talking to ayOuRg man in kind
ly spirit, but was at once confronted by
one Of the chief actors, stranger to the
town from Caldwell, named Seaman, who
by common consent seemed to be the ac-
knowledged leader Of the delightful
Observation-Disclosures the DR.. was direct
ing some pertinent remarks to him, Hin
ton, coatless and paid, trembling with
fear or rage, mounted the counter and or
dered him out. This was repeated the
third time, with threats OF force II not
obeyed, when some OF his seli.appOinted
friends kindly consented to hold him for
a season. A general rush was made for
the saloon, and it wanted but single
demonstration by way Of force from with
in to have swept the whole concern out Of
existence, There was manifested spirit
by many persons, heretofore not idcntiti-
cd with the League movement, that gave
no uncertain evidence OF the result.
When they saw their own time, the Ia
dies and their friends retired from the
scene, and left the participators to con-
tinuc their debauch, which beastiality
was never paralleled in our town. Later
in the night number Of them went to
the side front Of the building and in their
loathsome condition made indecent ex-
posure Of their persons. And one young
man, called Mctiee Hunt, rolled down in
the gutter, where at late hour Of the
night his but little less drunken com.
panions were striving to relieve him and
get him home.

The other Side Of the Barnes
willie Sensation.

From the DarnesvIe Enterprise.
No more disgraceful scene probably
was ever enacted in Barnesvillc than
took place Tuesday night on the corner
Of Church and Arch streets in n saloon
recently started by young man Of hith'
erto respectable character, named Joseph
Hinton. Its history will form chapter
In the annals Of our community that
should cover with infamy every pariici-
pator therein.
When this saloon was first started lnn-
der the protecting wing Of recent legisla-
tive enactments), from the fact Of his
previous good character and that his
mother was highly respectable, religious
lady, the sympathies Of the Ladies' League
were aroused IN her behalf, and they de.
termined to do all they could to influence
him to quit the business. And as many
parties were claiming that moral siinSiOn,
The "law Of love-" was the CHIEF or only
weapon to I've employed for the suppress.
sion Of the liquor traffic, they resolved
to give ii n faithful trial in his case. So
they quietly visited him from time to
time. advising and cntrcating him to
quit the degrading business at once. At
first they we're received with respect and
their admonitiona kindly listened TO-
When they visited the place on Tuesday
night, however, they were surprised to
find II in possession Of the whole liquor
element Of the place, from llead.Centcf

and the Times says that II President Grant

Is a singular expression of opinion in view
OF the fact that common sense as we'll as

TIE school children In Mississippi are IA
vored in one particular above the children
OF any other state. According TO the last
circular OF the bureau OF education contain
ing the school laws OF every state, the legis-
laiure of Mississippi in 1S6s passed an act,
the tenth section OF which reads that the
legislature shall from time 10 time, as may
he necessary, provide for the levy and collec-
ton of such other taxes as may be required
10 properly support the system of free schools
herein adopted; and all school funds shall be
c'tIded pro rd'd among the children Of school
eyes," The gentleman who drew the bill was
evidently little unfortunate in the use of
his language.
