BUFFALO. may 14.-Ihe report OF the m litia
being called out at Fort Erie, anticipating
Fenan raid early yesterday morning, is con-
frmed Unusual excitement prevailed along
the border owing to the reported crossing of 400

any such precautions by the Canadians. Toe

patches are said to have been received by the
government today from their agents along the

The Clean Newspaper.

There is a growing feeling in
every healthy community against
journals which make it their special
object to minister to a perverted
taste by seeking out and serving up
in a disgusting form disgusting
scandals and licentious revelations.
There is good reason TO believe that
the clean newspaper is more highly
priced to-day than it was four or
FIVE years ago. 1t is also safe TO
predict that as people in all ranks
Of life, who protect their own at
least from contamination, become
more conscious of the pernicIous in
fiuence of n certain class of journals,
called enterprising because they are
ambitious to serve dirty scan
dals, they will be careful TO see that
the journals they permit to be read
in the family circle are Of the class
that never forget the prophecies OF
life Already men and women OF
refinement and healthy morals have
made commendable efforts TO coun-
teract the same by causing sound
literature 10 be published. and sold
al popular prices. These efforts
are working a silent but sure revo-

Sayings of Josh Billings.

1t is so easy for some people to
advise other folks to sit down in 8
dentists chair and have q big doub.
lie tooth jerked out, that have of
ten wondered why they didn't sit
down anu have one jerked oat them
selves just for the fun of the thing.
Young man, sit down and keep
still; you will have plenty of chances
yet to make fool of yourself before
you die.
] always thoueht1t was better for
a man to invest his religion in his
business rather than his business
in his religion.
1t pays to be polite, even to a
mule, not so much on the mules ac-
countas your own.
Any man can be a first class gen
