ANOTHER ROBBERY NEAR ATHENs.--Last

ANOTHER ROBBERY NEAR ATHENs.-Last
night the residence of Mrs. Joseph M'Kin-
ney, an aged widow lady living two miles
southeast of here, was entered by two mask
ed men who presented pistols to the heads of
grand child, Miss Mary Wheaton, and Mr..
William Mallory, who lived with them, and
demanded money. Mallory grappled with
his assaiant and would have succeeded in Sc
curing him if the other had not intcrfered.-
The girl ran for help but was pursued and
dragged back to the house The struggle
continued for time, but the girl and NAL
lory were overpowered, both having made u
desperate resistance and received severe iniu-
ries; Maory's being of serious nature
about the head. The thieves escaped with
about $500 in money of the cid lady's, and a
watch worth $40, belonging to Mallory.
Judge Lynch would be too kind u magis-
trate to dispose of such rascals; he should be
an Indian, and the punishment death by tor
ture. WILL.

HELP YoURsELF.-Young men depend al
together too much OH somebody else to get
life in the world. They don't rely enough on
themselves. The day of "self-made men"
appears to be passing. The young men of the
present age fawn around politicians, doing
their dirty work and helping along disreputa-
BILE schemes, In hope to be appointed to some
position where the work is light and the pay
heavy. This is no way to succeed, You can
not build up reputation or fortune on the
expense of othQrs. You must be the architect
of your own fortunes. Don't ask anybody
else to help you get an education or anything
else. Ten thousand men are now serving
their day and generation with usefulness and
honor, who never asked anybody to grind an
axe for them. Young man, paddle your own
canoe, and ten to one you will reach the win
ming stake ahead of any competitor who re-
lied upon rich relatives or political friends to
help him along.

A Curious Incident.

The intelligence of old troop horses
Is the subject of many anecdotes which,
wonderful as they often are, will rarely
be doubted by any one who is familiar
with horses. A good story illustrative
of their sagacity is told and vouched for
as authentic by a South African paper.
The scene of the occurrence was
Potchefs.room, where our men and the
Beers were known to be very near
neighbors; so near, indeed, that when
the horses were turned out to water
they had their headstalls and halters
taken off, so that if the enemy sud-
denly appeared and tried to catch the
animals they would have nothing to lay
hold of them by, and the horses would
have chance of escaping into their own
lines. One evening. as usual, the horses
were let out of the fort to water and
rushed Straight to the place where they
usually drank. But the Beers were
nearer than had been suspected, and
jumping out of some trenches, sue
ceeded i'm capturing the animals, in spite
of the fact that the halters were missing.
The Beers, being admirable riders, as
is well known, mounted, and would,
probably, have been able to guide their
new steeds into the town, when sud-
denly the bugle at the fort sounded
horses in at trot,' and straightway
the whole of them turned and made for
home, carrying their unwilling freight.
The Dutchmen threw themselves off
right and left, but four were carried
right into the camp and taken prison

Mr.. Benefits diamond Ball.

The Vienna SdIon5ldtt has the follow
ing to say about certain well-known
Americans and their doings at Pau, the
fashionable winter resort in the south
of France: James Gordon Bennett, a
very rich American, has settled HIM
self in the former residence of Henry
vi, and his extravagances, made light
by the ownership of millions, have not
in any degree damaged Pau. For ex-
ample, Bennett engaged the Vienna
Capelmeister Strauss with his entire
company at an honorarium of 140, 600
francs TO come to Pau. where he played
series of concerts at which all Pau
were guests. Mr.. Mackay, the Ameri-
can nabob, who, with his soirees, cos
tuned balls, ETC., has busted all Paris,
came with his wife to Pau. To honor
them Mr.. Bennett arranged ball, en-
gaging private express trains which
brought from Paris and other cities,
from the neighborhood of Pau, bril-
liant company. The people called this
ball 1.-THE diamond ball." for at no op-
portunity save this and here was it pos
sible to behold such wealth of dia-
monds. "It was not mere dewdrops
that sparkled and glanced, it was a
Niagara of brilliants and diamonds" ="
said a member of the company who
pitied Mrs. Mackay because her treas
ures OF jewelry almost weighted her
down.

Lice and scab.

The louise is parasite. A parasite is
an insect or plant that lives on the
bodies of other animals or plants. Each
has its peculiar habitat, or home, where
it finds its necessary food. Animal, as
well as plant lice, increase with amaz-
ing rapidity, and, if unmolested, would
soon take the country" The female
head louise, 'Pediculus, will lay about
fifty or sixty eggs in the course of a
week These eggs, called nits, hatch
in about six days, and come to maturity
in about eighteen days, ready to propa-
gate their species. If uninterrupted,
in the short space of eight weeks there
will be a progeny of something Ike
5000 from single pair. Lice have
neither lungs nor gills for breathing
apparatus. Breathing is done by means
of innumerable holes in the body, and
when these are stopped up the insect
dies Newspapers print various reme-
dies for these yermin, and some of them
have proved far worse than the disease,
resulting in the death of the animal.
Red precipitate and too free use of
coal oil have been known to kill instead
of cure. Coal oil will perhaps kill. every
vermin it touches, and so perhaps of
strong tobacco water, while many of
the vermin will flee from the smell of
these and similar remedies, falling on
the ground, and only awaiting good
opportunity to get back to their old
homes. have stated how they breathe;
now for the remedy, and the only per-
fectly safe remedy. Grease, simply
grease, and nothing else. One quart of
lard, or any soft grease, in two applica-
tions, three or four days apart, well
rubbed in the hair along the back from
head to tail, with two or three broad
stripes all the way around the body,
will cure the worst affected horse or
cow that ever lived. For hogs, melt
the grease and pour from an old coffee
or other pot all along the pot, letting
the grease run down the sides, with a
few drops in each ear, will rid them en-
tirely, provided new bed is given
them to sleep in. If child is thus
troubled, half a teaspoonful of lard,
well rubbed in the hair, will be sufi-
cient, if allowed to remain on. , The
philosophy of this exceedingly simple
remedy is this: Every louise that crawls
through the greasy hair gets the pores
of his body stopped up, and conse.
quently dies, and when he'falls to the
ground it is 20 stay there. The grease
should stay on at least week, so as to
kill all the young nits as soon as they
begin to crawl.-Cor. NJ Y Tribune. :.

The whole object of ostrich culture

birds are the most important events of
the year; these occur twice. Some-
times q bird will be ready when only

months are added to its age before the
first plucking. The operation is per-
formed in two ways. One is a rough

of six men, but this plan is less often
followed than in former years, be-
cause, in the violent struggles with the
birds, some injury frequently happens
TO the pluckers, and sometimes a leg OF
an ostrich is broken, in which case the
bird has to be killed, however valuable
it may be-,
On large farms, where there are
plenty of birds, a more humane plan is
pursued. Mounted men collect a herd
of the birds to be plucked, and partly
drive, partly entice, them in small
yard or "corral," by liberal supply
of Indian corn. called "mealies" in
South Africa The corral, or pen, has
a movable side, and when it is full,
,"this side is run in, and the birds are

The men then go among them and
pluck or cut the feathers. The opera

birds, and the feathers begin to grow
again at once" There seems to be no

pounds ofrhubarb and boil for 3 guar

strain the liquor into a jug, adding a
small quantity of iemon-peel and d-some

peeled and cored. Sugar should not
be added to either of the above until

In the absence of fresh fruit pleasant
beverage may be prepared by stirring
sufficient raspberry jam or currant jelly
into the required quantity of water,

StiltOn Cheese.

An English correspondent sends us
the following method practiced in max
ing the celebrated Stilton cheese: The
nights cream is added to the milk Of
the following morning, or, if the cheese
is desired to be very rich, a still greater
portion of cream. The rennet is then
added, but no coloring matter is used.
When the 'curd has como, unlike the
method pursued in making most other
eheeses, it is taken out without being
broken and put whole into a drainer.
where it is squeezed down hard until
the whey is entirely pressed out. When
dry itis put, with a clean cloth, into
chessel and placed beneath the press,
the outside being well salted. When
sufficiently firm to be removed it is put
upon dry board and tightly bound
around with cloth, which must be
changed daily, in order to avoid cracks
in the skin, until it is found to have a
coat formed, when there is no occasion
for its further use, and nothing more
need to be done to the cheese than
10 brush occasionally and frequently
turn it upside down upon the shelf
where it may be placed.
