The Library Association.

I The above organization is growing
rapidly. At its regular meeting last
Friday night the room was crowded.
The exercises consisted of an essay on
Edgar A. Poe, by Hon. j. W. Ramsey,
which was highly Instructive and APP
p%reciative. Miss Emma Hampton read
Gamma Belle Lee" by the same author
in a happy and touching manner. Col.
Edwards read "Thc Raven" In good
style also. Masters Willie Sharp and
Orlando Gaut delivered declamatious.
Postmarter General Key and Con-
gresham Dibrell having been notified
of their honorary membership to the
society, wrote letters expressing their
thanks. Key sent the association a
copy Of the Postmaster Generals Re-
port to Congress. Just what use the
association has for that book has never
yet been found out. Mr.. Dibrell also
promises the association a COMPRESSION
al Globe or a Patent Office Report. 1t
looks as if these gentlemen might afford
to present the association with some
thing better than such books.
The Ladies' Donation Committee re-
ported 81 90 collected for the assoeia-
ton. The association then adjourned
till next regular meeting.

Quite a sad occurrence took place
yesterday morning about 8 O'Clock in
the burning of a little daughter OF
Mr. q. L. Hardwick, aged about two
years. Mrs. lIardwick had stepped
into the yard and left the little one
in the alone. She heard the
cry Of the child aud looked around
and 1t was coming TO her with its
clothing in a blaze all over. Medical
attention was summoned immediate
ly and al done for it that was posi-.
bic TO 90. None Of the family were
at home at the time except its moth.
er, and she being ont doors, 10 ono
knows how it caught fire, but it is
supposed the child had walked too
cloge TO the coal CRATE. The child
died at 3 ?. IN. yesterday.

Prof. Tice's New Theory.

The weather prophet of st. Louis,
Prof. Tice, has come out with another
theory which is curious, if not correct.
lie thinks tia the construction Of tel
egraph lines through desert lands
would have the effect of changing the
climate and eventually the soil. He
says that the Signal Office has erected
telegraph lines across the Staked
Plains Of Texas, and in q short time
time they will be spanned by c%ontincn-
tai railroads, he expects that they will
become habitable before many years. If
anybody has faith in these predictions
it might be we'll for him TO speculate in
Texas lands, rs there lis probably no
commodity so cheap as the lands in the
Staked Plains.

/ noticed in your last issue where
you spoke of "Delta" in the Cleve-
land Banner as making an attack on
your. correspondent, whom he has
found so much objection TO because
said correspondent had never studied
Greek or Latin and the high branches
OF Science, and had never had the
opportunity Of obtaining III educa.
ton. l.think if l were Detail would
be the last one to make sport Of
those who are unlearned. If Delta
has the education he claims, is the
gentleman be saws he is, and occupies
the position in the community he
thinks he does, VIC would advise him
as a friend not to personate so much
Us he does in his heightened" arti-
cles for his paper.
In regard to schools, I suppose we
are Ike all other people-subiect 10
errors. We may have had a few
teachers that are not as great men as
Delta, but | think we can manage
our schools without him. He is al
ways the first to offer himself as a
teacher, but | think he will be the
last getting the position in this CON-
munity. He objects to the signature
"a x" Had it been "X X Y" he
would have understood that-seen it
on the heads of whisky barrels, you
know. We hope Mr.. Delta will keep
cool and 60 slow a while yet as he
has not been with US long enough to
be crowned yet.
Nothing of interest has transpired
the week, except two parties

The concert last Saturday night, CIV
en by the Choir of the NJ. Z. Church
and the Orchestra, was a grand affair,
and speaks well for the musical talent
M Cleveland. The announcement that
they would give o concert vas a suhi-
acient guarantee that the audience
would be highly entertained. The

Advice In Season.

Exposure bcgets a cold. With the
cold comes a cough. Acough neglect
ed is consumption, which means death
Beware how you neglect the cough, as
your life may pay the forfeit, for at
first a simple remedy removes what
medical science is unable to cure when
neglected too long. Medical men think
no medicine has yet been discovered
which will cure a cough as quickly as

The rh1noceros escaped from his cage,
and at a fast gail started up the RAILROAD
track. No one was particularly DESTROYS
of being in his way, and consequently
everybody cleared out or got in secure
positions. The frightened and exasper-
ated beast soon encountered a locomotive,
at which he made a lunge, and from the
pilot tore off an iron bar with as much
ease as it would have ripped away strip
of board. Then he dashed at freight
Car, in the side of which he Knocked a
big hole. Mr. Kelly, his keeper, finally
caught up with him, and, catching him
by the ear, attempted to lead him away,
but he refused to obey. Kelly then leap
e.! on his back, and was treated to ride
of several hundred yards. The showmen
eventually succeeded IN lassooing the
rhinoceros, and with the aid of half a
hundred men he was forced into box
car, from which a transfer to his cage was
subsequently made The bear displayed
his agility by running up an inclined
plane for some distance before he was
captured. He would doubtless have
reached the top had he been let alone.

Two Bright Dogs.

Some one tells this little story of two
small dogs:
my friend had several dogs, two of
which had special attachment to and
understanding with each other. The one
was Scotch terrier, gentle and ready to
traternize with all honest corners. The
other was as large as mastiff and looked
like acompound between the mastif, and
the large, rough stag hound. He was fierce,
and required some acquaintance before
you knew what faithfulness and kind
ness lay beneath his rough and savage
looking exterior. The one was CAV and
lively; the other, stern and thoughtful
"These two dogs were observed to 90
| TO certain point together, when the
small one remained behind at a corner Of
a large field, while the matitf went around
by the siae of the field, which ran up a
hill for nearly mile, and led to wood
on the lett. Game abounded in those
districts. and the object of tbs dogs ar
rangement was seen. The terrier swould
start hare, and chase itup hill toward
the large wood at the summit, where they
| arrived somewhat tired. At this point
the large dog, which was fresh and had
rested after his walk, darted after the an
iInal, which he usually captured. They
then ate this hare between them and re-
turned home. This cours, had been sys-
tematically carried on for some time be-
fore it was fully understood"

Keep Your Birds Tame.-There Is one
point in poultry management to which
we wish to call especial attention, as but.
few persons who rear poultry for profit
ever attach much Importance, notwith-
standing it has great influence upon the
profits 1t is to keep your birds tame,
whether they are kept in suitable en-
closure during the entire year Or permit
ted to have unlimited range, for it pays to
do so, in many ways. IT you keep your
birds tame. so they will come to you
quickly at the call and eat out of your
hand without any sign Of fear or distrust,
they will always be quiet and content,
and will fatten ana thrive much better.
This matter is we'll understood by breed
ers of the larger kinds of stock, such as
cattle, horses, sheep and swine, while there
are sensible few who apply the same
principle with poultry.
Many fine nest OF eggs has been de-
stroyed by wild and frightened hen, a
hen which had early learned to fear her
master or owner. If uniform kindness
had been resorted to the hen would suffer
herself to be handled while on the nest,
and never once think of leaving it in such
a hurry as to endanger the eggs. If the
poultry on the farm is kept tame, it is not
a very difficult matter to catch one or
more when wanted for table or other uses.

The Gold That " ears.

We parted one eve at the garden gate
When the dew was on the heather.
And promised my love to come back TO her
Ere the pleasant autumn Weather
That we twain might wed
When the leaves were red,
And live and love together.
She cut me tress from her nut-brown hail
As kissed her lips of cherry,
And gave her ring Of the o'd-time gold
With stone like the moul tain berry
AS clear and blue
AS her eyes We're true
Sweet eyes SO bright and merry!
"The wealth of my love is all have
To give you," she said, in turning;
"The gold that wears-like the radiant stars
Inyonder blue vault burningi"
And took the trust,
As mortal must,
Whose soul for love is yearning.
Fate kept US apart for many years,
And the blue sea rolled between us,
Though | kissed each day the nut brown tress
And made fresh vows to Venus
Till sought my bride.
And Fate defied,
That had failed from loye to wean us.
/ found my love at the garden gate
When the dew was on the heather,
And we twain were wed at the Ii. tie kirk
In the pleasant autumn weather,
And the gold that wears
Now soothes my cares,
As we live and love together.
