We are afraid that Kearney's ex-
periences with that hat were of a
character which led q worthy Irish
priest of st. Louis, who had preach
ed q sermon in aid of some benev-
olen: purpose, to exclaim, Oh look
ing in the box, "Your liberality is
not equal to your piety, or there
would have been more money in
the box" Still these periodical
collections show that Denis Kear-
ney, like the "thievlng, robbing

not above having an eye to the
main chance.
What O mercy 1t is that Kearney
can't dixie us all up and bury us

The country, thank God. Is too

He Killed !! in Self Defence.
From the coyluston Press. /


Major Sam. V. Reid is very busy
forwarding schemes for Southern
relief. The Major always was q
sympathetic, good-hearted gentle
man and believer in the doctrine
of q fair division of comforts, as the
few survivors of the gallant COM
pany he led in 1S61-62 can testify.
One Of the boys brought a lamb
into camp once upon time, fact
which the Major (then a Captain
was not long In discovering. "Car-
ter" said he, show did you come
into possession of that lainb?u 81
killed it, Captain,' was the unhes-
itating reply. "Ipresume you did,
sir" rejoined the Captain; shut
don't you know that is violation
of orders to steal the property of the
people?p This seemed fora mJ-
ment to pose the lover of fresh
mutton, but for moment only,
for, after scratching his head, he
retorted: Captain, j didn't steal
it. The confounded beast chased
me all around forty-acre field, and
[ had to kill it in self.defense. II
would have been shame to leave
it there for the buzzards, and so l
saved the meat for my own mess.
I'll send you quarter of 1t after

have DOUBTED the soldiers state

Capt. Reid took 1t all in, and re-
marking, Don't let this happen
again. moved off to his quarters,
satisfied with the correctness OF
Carter's statement.

'sNo!''

A marriage service was strangely
but fatally interrupted, recently,
in Cincinnati. An intelligent lady
was engaged to be married. Learn
ing that her affiapced was in the
habit of drinking, she kindly re-
monstrated with him and received
his solemn promise to abandon the
use of liquor. She believed him,
aud appointed the wedding day.
The gentleman continued to
visit his bride-elect. He also con-
tinued TO drink, fact of which
she, misled by her trust in his
word of honor, remained in ignor-
ance until they stood side by side
before the clergyman who was to
marry them. His tell-ta1e breath,
as he turned toward her, betrayed
that he had been drinking.
There was but moment where
in to decide, for the clergy man had
begun the marriage service.
"Wilt thou take this man to be
thy welded husband?p asked the
minister.
Family came tie response
MOP Surprised, the minister
again asked the question. Clear
and decisive, she said, "No.u
Turning to her lover, she remind.
ed him OF his solemn promise.
"YoI have broken it this morn
ing" she said. IA man who vio-
lates his word of honor to her to
whom he is engaged, is one TO
whom l will not trust my happiness
as his wife!p
Friends, relatives, and the man
himself entreated in vain. She
remained firm to her "No!"

WE are glad to learn, from every
side, that the approaching South
ern California District Fair will be
extensively attended from all quar-
ters south of Point Conception.
We shall have heavy delegations
from San Bernardino, Santa Bar
bara and San Diego counties.
Doubtless the people of Kern, Tu-
lare and interior Southern coun-
ties, will organize excursions to
Los Angeles during Fair week. 1t
will be an exhibition worth travel
ing goodly distance to see. The
applications for space are already
six-fold those recorded up to the
very last day preceding the last
fair. For variety of vegetation and
vigor of growth no agricultural or
genealogical display in the state
will approach that which will be
made In the new Horticultural
Pavilion. A creditable energy has
characterized every detail OF the
preparations, and the Fair has been
advertised far and wide. We can
cheerfully invite outsiders to come
and see Southern California at her

SOUTH CAROLINA has another re.
bellion. She is making more war
and more national taxes. Praotical>
~ she claims the right to make
whiskey without paying the Gov
eminent revenue, while we Northern
hierlings and mudsills must pay the
taxes. The Government officers at

key thieves to pay the taxes. The
thieves fired upon them. The off.
GERS returned the fire and killed one
OF the thieves. South Carolina Off
GERS then put the United States off,
GERS under indictment for murder
and arrested them. The United
States court demands authority over
the prisoners, the law being that as
they were in the service of the Uni.
ted States they were under the pro.
lection of United States Laws.
South Carolina Court refused to give
up the prisoners. If Hayes does not
make an exhibition of his Unborn
weakness of course the prisoners
will be taken by the United States
authority, in spite of South Carolina
rebels. but that will not end the
matter. The indictment in South
Carolina will be kept hanging over
the heads of these men who efficient
~ killed one of her thieves thief
whose business it was to reduce their
home taxes and make us pay them
and whenever the rebels have the
full power in Washington these men
will again be taken, tried and con-
victed. This is what the North gets

Government we will always have
while we yield the right to born and
educated thieves and assassins the
right to vote, hold office and rule

SOME farmers grow stock for mar.
ket, others grow grain. Some choose
one article for their money crop,
others another. Whatever he does
10 this respect every farmer should
make sure of growing for himself ev-
cry article wanted for his own CON.
sumption. He should grow all the
wheat he will want for his own
-four, all the oats he will want for
his horses and all the corn he will
want for his hogs. Wheat has so
failed on the farmers tina. many do
not sow enough for their own use.
During the year the spare cash they
might otherwise enjoy they have to
spend for -four. The past season
there was larger acreage than
usual of winter wheat sown. The
result indicates that though the land
appears to be worn out for spring
wheat, it will do we'll with winter
wheat better than when the coun-
try was new. Let farmers follow up
the lesson learned. Have In little
winter wheat every season.
