II is Not Generally known

That the shortest possible route between
the South and Great West is through ST.
Louis, over the ST. Louis, Kansas City and
Northern Short Line. This road has gained
surprising importance by reason of immense
expenditures in the last two years, of over
two million dollars, besides earnings, in i'm
provements Of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and IRON
rails, on broad new ties, and substituting
for ordinary cars, new reclining chair coach
es, elegantly carpeted and fitted, with dress
ing rooms with toilet conyeniences for la
dies, gentlemen and families travelling with
children, without any extra charge. This
line runs six fast Express trains between the
Mississippie and Missouri Rivers, two more
than any other road, and connects with all
the great Land Grant Roads in the West,
and has adopted all modern appliances for
comfort, speed and safeguards against accl-
dents including night and day watchmen who
inspect the road before and after the passage
of each train to see that everything is in Or
der. We recommend those contemplating o
trip West to take the St. Louis, Kansas City
and Northern Short Line, it being the only
line running through cars between St. Louis
and Omaha, and for tickets over this excel
lent line we refer our readers to any ticket
agent selling through tickets TO the West. For
map. circulars and Time tables address
either J. F. Mccarthy, Cincinnati, O.; or P.

will furnish any information desired. Att

SENsIBLE.-The proprietor Of a news
paper in illinois, writes to the Amerf-
can Newspaper Reporter, as follows:
Il have THIS DAY revised my sub
scription list, and stricken therefrom
the names Of ALL who have not paid
their subscriptions, preferring to lose
what is due now rather than increase
the loss. This revision reduces the fig
ures recently sent you for publication
in DIRECTORY from 900 to COO. I will
not again furnish copy of my paper
on credit to any one-not single day.
Some of the names erased are those of
excellent people-Jut they don't pay
the little taro dollars-and I have lost
all I care to lose in such q foolish way.

ages, or the publisher may continue to send
It until payment is made, and collect the
whole amount, whether it is taken from the

refusing 10 take newspapers and periodicals
from the Post Office, or removing and lesv-

D. D. G. W. C. T, of G. rs. institu-
ted Lodge somewhere on the line of
the Greenville road last week, and after
the regular business Of the evening was
over, the members of the young order,
with the D. D., at their head, invited in
q number of timid ones who were afraid
to join, and al together they had a gay
time. It is said the frolic continued
nearly allnight, until "Aunt Phoebe" and
other plays were worn out. The D. D.
made quite an impression, and being
taken for widower was invited to pro-
long his visit. We have not heard of
any broken hearts, but strongly suspect
damage was done.

SHAME.-Ever since the dedication
of the new Masonic Hall by Amity
Lodge, and the supper and light fantas-
tic entertainment which followed, We
have been saddened by day, and our
rest broken at night by the piteous
bleating Of IN unfortunate wandering
goat, which is reported to be the one
formerly used by the fraternity, but
which since their going into the new
hall they have turned out to grass,
younger and friskier one having been
secured. If it were summer time we
should not question the right to get shut
of the old goat. but to turn the animal
out to grass when there is none is un-
kind, and comports not with their claim
us 4 charitable body. We say it is
great shame, the goat is entitled to
comfortable quarters. at least until
spring-time grass begins to grow. and
we solemnly appeal to Grand Master
Hoyt, of Anderson, who we have rea-
son to believe will not sanction any
thing SO unmasonic. Some Of the
members of the mystic brotherhood try
to excuse the act by saying that the
goat would not rear up at both ends
when required, nor could it butt the
candidate with its former vigor while
slipping down the greasy pole, but that
does not alter case. Again it is affirm
ed that the goat is entitled to better
treatment, and the case shall be carried
to the Grand Lodge of the United States
unless the animal be taken in and cared
for.
