IIE TRUE.

There are persons whom you can al-
ways believe; because YOU know they
have the habit Of telling The truth
They do not color a story or enlarge q
bit of news in order 10 make il sound
fine or remarkable.
There are persons whom you hardly
know whether 10 believe or not, because
they stretch things 50. a triHihg in.
cident grows in size, but net 10 quality,
by passing through their mouths. They
take small fact or slender blt of news,
and pad it with added wo'ds, AMI paint
it with high colored adjeclives, until it
is largely unreal, and gives a false i'm
preston. And one does not like 10
listen to folks when 80 much must be
allowed for shIinksge.'
Cultivate the haLi, OF telling tho
truth in little things as well as in great
ones. Pick your words wisIey, and uso
only such -as rightly mean what you
wish to say. Never stretch a story or
tact to make il bigger or funuier. DO
this and people will learr TO trust you
and respect you. This will be better
than having name Of telling wonder
fu stories or making foolishIy or false
ly Sunny remarks There are enough
true funny things happening in The
world, and they are most entertaining
when told exactly as they came 10 pass.
One has well said, Never deceive for
the sake Of foolish jest, or 10 excite
the laughter Of a few companions Of The
expense Of "a friend.
Dear young friends, bc true. Do lie
tuth. Tel the truth. There are many
false tongues. Let years speak things
that arc pure, lovely and true. e

They are never alone that are accom-
panied with noble thoughts.
In refraining from being mean to 9th
ers you are good to yourselves.
Mean souls, like mean pictures, are
often found in good looking frames.
Every man is bound to tolerate the
act of which he himself sets the example.
In matters of prudence last thoughts
are best; in morality your first thoughts
are best.
Is beauty vain because il will fade =?
Then are earth's green robe and heav-
ems light vain.
1t ever is the marked propensity Of
reckless and aspiring minds 10 look into
the stretch of dark futurty.
Earth is our workhouse, and heaven,
or should be, our storebouse. Our chief
business here IS to lay up treasure there.
There are peculiar ways iumen which
discover what they are thought the most
subtle feints and close disguises.
None are so seldom found alone and
are so soon tired Of their company as
those coxcombs who are on the best
terms with themselves.
Never be discouraged by trif1es. Ii
a spider breaks his thread twenty times
he will mend it as many. Perseverance
and patience will accomplish wonders.
The mind has certain vegetative pow
or which cannot be wholly idle. If it
is not laid out and cultivated into a
beautiful garden it will OF itself shoot
up weeds instead of flowers.
A Bible and newspaper in every
house, a good school in every district,
all studied and appreciated as they mer-
it, are the principal support of yirture,
morality aud civil liberty.

The Gray-Glancey Shooting.
SANTA BARBARA, September 27.-Clar-
ence Gray, the assassin of Theodore
Clancy, is committed to Jail on a charge
of murder without bail. The following is
an extract from the Press of to-day: At
2 o'clock p. M, on Saturday last, Gray met
Clancy on State street in front of the DC.
cidental Hotel, and inquired if he was re-
sponsible for the article referring to him,
Gray, in the Daily Press of the day previ-
GUS. Clancy replied in the affirmative,
whereupon Gray attempted to draw a re-
volver. Clancy sprang forward, and TAX
ing Gray by the wrists said, "You shall
not draw a revolver on me, l am unarmed."
AT this instant o bystander interfered and
separated them, when Gray instantly drew
his revolver and Clancy retreated into the
Occidental Hotel, and while attempting to
close the door he was fred upon by Gray
with a large revolver, the ball passing
through his right arm near the wrist, and
entering the abdomen near the navel and
passing out of the left side a little above
the hip bone. Clancy instantly started
down the street pursued by Gray, when
some bystander again intercepted him.
Clancy walked about $50 yards with out
assistance, to the Morris House. Here he
was taken charge of by his friends and
placed under the care of the physicians. who
rendered all the aid possible, but notwith-
standing their skill, in about nineteen hours
he passed away. aged AZ years. His wife
and family reside at Calistoga. Every pre-
caution is taken at the Jail to protect
Gray.
