AND now the Sheriff of Pulaski is
after Owens, Of the Repo rter, with .
sharp stick, on account Of some article
that lately appeared in that paper, de-
rogatory to the official standing Of
that august dignitary. He calls Ow.
ems liar, his paper lying sheet, and
is as reckless with the use of the word
ms if it wasn't any thing to call man
a liar. We admire the usually fear
less style Of our contemporary, but
would suggest to him the Importance
of knowing he is right before he goes
ahead, then If he goes ahead after he
knows he is right and some imaginary
brave man attempts to relieve himself
Of odium, in rival paper, by calling
him liar and other non-euphonious
appsllations, the best way to treat him
is to teach him lesson by vigorous
application Of the toe Of his boot to
that portion Of his anatomy that will
render sitting down a disagreeable
performance for month or so. You
see, the dignity Of the press must be
maintained.

A HORRIBLE murder of gentle
man, his wife and young lady. at
Gore, Ohio, has just been perpetrated.
The object of the murder was to get
possession of an amount Of money
that was supposed to be in the house
where the unfortunate people lived.
Four young men were arrested for the
crime and lodged in Jail, but the strong
probability that the indignant citizens
would lynch them. caused their reno
val to Lancaster. The daily papers
give full accounts of the horror. and
regard it Us one Of the most cold
bloOded murders on record.

APRoPos Of the recent hanging of
eleven Mollie MaGuires, in Pennsyl-
vania, an explanation of the name as
applied to them may be interesting. 1t
is said to have originated in this way:
Fifty or more years ago, in ireland,
an old woman named Mollie MaGuire
had her cottage pulled down ever her
head by the landlord. Grief at this
treatment and exposure, killed her.
Her enraged sons and a few neighbor-
hood lads formed in to q secret band
to revenge themselve., not only on
that landlord, but on Irish landlords
in general. They called themselves
the "Mollie MaGuires. The band
spread rapidly and the name was
brought by miners to this country.
Their terrible doings since are blood
curdling.

BLUE Glass MASrA.-The Boston

BLUE GLASS MANrA.-The Boston
Medical and Surgical Journal, quotes
a passage from Addison's Spectator Of
May "a, 1912, which attributes to the
color green, an influence upon the ami
NAL economy, which, IL remarks, NOV
that the public mind Is occupied with
the silly blue glass mania = = may
be interesting. The physiology is, to
say the least, as good rs Gen. Pleas
antson's." "All colors that are more
luminous. overpower and dissipste the
animal splrits which are employed in
sight; on the contrary, those that are
more obscure do not give the animal
spirits q sufficient exercise, whereas
the rays that produce in US an idea Of
green, fall ubon the eye in such a due
proportion that they give the animal
spirits their proper play, and BY keep
ing up the struggle in a great balance,
excite a very pleasing and agreeable
sensation. Let the cause he what il
will, the effect is certain, FOR which
reason the poets sscribe to this partic.
ular color the epithet Of cheerful"
We are not aware what the origin of
the "blues" and the "blue devils" may
be, but they certainly are not sugges-
tive Of cheerful associations" We
have often heard it said that "hope
deferred maketh the heart SICK" ergo,
we, in a philanthropic spirit, would
suggest to those who have tried "blue
glass" with but little efficacy, and who
now have the scripture before them
that the effect Of the cheerful" green
upon the animal spirit Is certain, to
not do like doubling Thomas, but go
at once and erect . cheerful green
house, secure thyself therein, and be
made whole. Prescription 81 90.

A CoNrRAsr If we were to be asked to
SAY in one word the quality that more than
ANYTHING else marks English towns and all
public palces as compared with our own, we
should have to say HentHeSS English streets
are well paved and clean; English roads are
well kept English railway stations are in
perfect order English fields are trim and
neat English gardens, hedges, fences, lawns,
all exhibit care and oversight. English smoke
and fog blackon and stain all the buildings
but English care more than compensates for
this unavoidable evil. We are not so particu-
lar here. We have a clear atmosphere and
brilliant skies, but we are all, so far as public
places are concerned, sons and daughters OF
Shabbyville This is the more strange, be-
cause in our households no such rcproach Is
true There are no ncater or better Eept
homes anywhere than American homes,
nor are any people cleaner or neater in their
habits IT is wholly in public matters that
this shabbiness we complain of exists; and
this arises, of course, first, from the neglect
of the official persons We endow with hand
some salaries for leaving undone the things they
should do and next, from strange indlfer-
ence on everybody's part to everything OF a
public nature, to everything that is not with
in his own private administration. APpttonS

That insOlently calls himself "a Man.

or sniff the airs Of breezy Astrakhan.'
"why, let them fight, If 50 they list; but We,

That we are forced 10 do their bloody work.
"Are there not beasts Of prey whose nature suits ?
Fierce Bengal tigers from the junge's mud,

Who would be happy IN this field Of blood?

And two sad conscripts had long discharge.
