THIRTY small boys in Dallas, Texas,
were arrested for holding negro minstrel
shows in an unoccupied building without
the knowledge or consent of the owners
The Mayor fined them from fifty cents
to 81. 25 each, and then, because he had
remembered he had once been boy
himself, he paid the fines and sent the
offenders home.
THE Department Of Agriculture Of
South Carolina is preparing to send trust
worthy men into each county in the
State to make up statistical reports from
personal inspection of farms. The Com
missioner is Of the opinion that accurate
statistics Of this kind can not be obtained
| by tax gatherers, as taxpayers lnV'trl-
ably curtail in their returns the amount
Of land planted and the number Of cattle
owned.
In Sumter County, S. O., Negro
named Ellison Hampton beat his ten
vear-old son to death with leather
thong He first beat him until his arn
wearied with switch, and then tied hin
up to stake in his yard and struck hin
in the neighborhood of four hundred
lashes, the boy expiring under the lash
It seems that Ellison had been married
twice, this boy being the child of hi
first wife, who is still living. On thi
occasion the wrath of the father wa
evoked by the boy having gone to see hi
mother in violation of his fathers orders
Ellison has been arrested, and is now il
jail charged with murder

toned 1t appears he was noted thief
who had long baffled the police. He
said when he learned the house was oc-
cupied only by two individuals, he was
much elated. He did not intend to pro-
ceed to acts Of violence, unless my
brother and troubled him too much.
When he found the house deserted, he
concluded | had not told him the truth
-vnat I was alone. Not finding me, he
supposed 1 had hid, and he would not
hunt for me.
Lifting me into his lap, Henry Vim
cent called me the "bravest little woman
he ever knew" All the others praised
and fiattered me, till began to think
men were greater takers than women.
All that night we stayed there, and be-
fore morning was raving like a lunatic.
Three long weeks / remained uncon
scious. When 1 became sensible, anx-
ious faces were bending over me. Papa,
mamma, and all the folks were at my
bedside.
"What is the matter?" / asked. In a
moment that dreadful day came to my re-
membrance. ooh, | know!" said /,
with shudder
1t was long, long time before re-
gained my strength. Every person
petted and praised me. was the heroine
Of the neighborhood. Henry Vincent
never became tired of descanting upon
my bravery, and devoted himself to me
in manner that would have been very
aggriyating to his young lady acquain-
tance, had been few years older.
My ''lodger" was sent to prison TO
mediate for some years.

Chinese Inn.

According to a lady missionary now
living in China, the inn accommodations
are not of the highest order. An earth
floor, not even smooth. Walls festooned
with cobwebs of great age, and the dust
of many months. A very dirty, square
table, high-backed chair, and two very
narrow benches. A raised platform,
built OF bricks and mortar, with cavities
for fire to be kindled in cold weather.
Fires, when needed, are kept up day and
night, and the platform for bed by night
and "sitting-room by day; bed CLOTH
ing furnished by lodgers Attendance,
hot water brought in by landlord for tea
and toilet purposes. Charge for six
seven hundred copper cash, equivalent
to seventy cents. The lady remarks,
"If we had not been entertained in the
style of the frst-class hotels Of the
United States, neither did we have biz
in the same style"

SHE WAS RIGHT.

she stands before her mirror, fair,
In eirlish innocence and grace,
Pranaring with ingenious touch
To heighten charms Of form and face.
She brushes with unspartng hand
Her silken tresses, long and bright,
For she asstlredly intends
To look her very best tonight.
She ouickly plaiis the cleaning strands,
And as the rose nues tint her cheek,
She saws. I" Ha surely loves me, and
I wonder wins he does not speak9"
Then rs the braids ara deftly placed,
she cnrls IN bewitching way
The tiny locks that DER her brow
In negligent rroiusion stray.
A leafy bud she now selects,
Disposing Il as II by chance
Amid the curls, then bird-like gives
quick and scrutinizing glance.
The pretty dinrllng smiles reveal
Her satisfaction al the sight.
And then she sighs and murInurs low,

Bright gems are clasped on neck and brow,
The silken robe before uuworn

Serve TO embellish and adorn.
And then no, no, III never tell
The little secrets beauty knows
To give the last enchanting tnucn,
From which she blossoms like the rose.
Enough that every moment fair
And iairer lin indeed she seems,
A sight the fairies might invoke
To haunt our brightest, fondest dreams.
Then all equipped, e'en TO the foot
That CLEANS on satin from the floor,
She stands and leisurely surveys
The charming figure DER and DER.
No wonder that she smiles ard mods
Back TO the face she knows is fair;
No wonder she her head uplifts

A UniversalIst in a Methodist Pulpit

William Bridges, strong Universalist
and well-to-do citizen of Greencastle,
Ind, subscribed 800 toward the erec-
ton of a Methodist Church in his city,
on condition that the Rev. w. w. Curry,
the well known Universalist minister and
Republican politician, be allowed to
preach course of three sermons on
Uniyersalism, after its dedication. The
church authorities closed the contract
quickly and rolled the 20" under their
tongues as a sweet morsel, snatched as
it were, from the hands of one who, no,
knowing good, would do evil In due
time the church was finished, and Mr..
Curry was on hand A dispatch says:
ellis first sermon produced sensation,
and after his second the Trustees be-
gan taking steps to cancel the con-
tract, the congregation censuring the
board for encouraging the promulga-
ton of heterodox principles. But
Brother Curry is firm and Bridges will
not rescind until the subject, Why he
does not believe in hell is thoroughly

GARFIELD.

The most disagreeable Of the duties 0
| the journalist in q political campaign is L
discuss the personal conduct of the candl
dates. Yet it is both Legitimate and neces'
sary to know for whom we are 70 vote. 1t Il
not enough that we read the platforms OF a
party. They are always pleas for power,
and are drawn with special reference &c
conceal what is most disagreeabe and rem
der prominent what pleases popular taste
But the people want to know who is behind
the platform. They are right andhave the
right to know "what manner Of men, is
put forward for their suftrages.
Hence, Garfeld's public life belongs 10
the country If he can reasonably and hon
orably account for receiving the $4,000, in
the DeGolyer pavement fraud, he ought to
do so. 1t is not such matter as Will be
disposed of by his merely standing on his
dignity. He has not satisfactorily done
so yet. To have been connected at all with
the ring OF plunderers who stole themselves
rich in pretending to improve Washington,
needs much more explanation than has
been given.
The electoral commission conspiracy, in
the formation of which and the bestowal
thereon of extra legal and extra constitu-
tional powers, and in the manufacture of
evidence founded on perjury, Mr.. Garfield
was a most prominent agent, will 60 down
in history as an open and successful attempt
at revolution, branding its authors and pro-
moters with the infamy of preterring party
success, to preserving intact the freedom
and purity of elections.
The Credit Mobilier bride may be sus-
ceptible of some explanation which will
leave Mr.. Garfield with clean hands, but
none has so far been offered. The only one
yet offered is on a par with the effort Of
Ames' sons to purify their fathers
memory from all imputations of dishonesty.
Another act-which from It's character is
even more dishonorable than the pecuniary
dishonor charged-is the cowardly and false
attack made on the reputation of Messrs.
Eckles and Davis, by charging them with
reasonable correspondence with officers Of
the confedeaacy. The whole affair was
proved base conspiracy, based on forged
letters, yet Mr. Garfield has not found, IN
1G years, the manly courage to admit that
twas a conspiracy. Whatever inclination
we might have to give him the credit for
honest intentions, being the victim OF
false information, we are now compelled
by his long silence, to believe that he was
himself the author of the infamous and
false charges Or else that he lacks the first
element of great mantle will and the
power to rectiiy wrong done to another
either by mistake or intention. Such
man will not do to trust.
