an alarm of fire was turned in. As he

you got in this city,"
The boy spit on his brush, looked up

IF you were to go up and down the
country asking each man you met If he
knew of the whereabouts of liar you
would discover that sixty per cent. Of
the population of this country could be
included under that head You meet
liars on every corner, you pass them on
every block; you sit beside them on every
street car, and lying has become such a
custom that liars are as well thought OF
as truth tellers.
The newspapers come in contact with
the liar every hour in the day. Let a
man fall from the roof of a shed on High
street and break his arm, and the news
travels about as follows:
One block away-''Broke both arms y
Two blocks away-"Both arms and a

CHIEF NUMANA was Census Supervisor
in Nevada. His enumerators were all
Indians, and a single sheet of blank pa
per and pencil comprised their equip
ment. Upon this paper the Indian made
a circle to represent wigwam or camp,
and within he placed figures torepresent
the number of persons in family, his
squaws being distinguished by lines
representing gowns, and smaller figures
denoting children of various sizes. The
chief made up his report from these
sheets by taking number Of willow
sticks Of various lengths to denote adults
and children of different sizes, notching
those representing females, and sending
the sticks In bundles to the census Office.
This method, though rude, has served
to furnish an accurate census Of the
Piutes.

lists who arc in the manufacturing line
will visit the PARIS Mill seat on Broad

May this straw help to cause the peo-
pie of Fairfield to consider the bene-
fits we would derive both individually
and collectively. There is idle capital
enough in the county to erect small
factory: all that is needed is for some
enterprising young men to take the

The SUNDAY SCHOOL P1cN.c.-The
Sunday School picnic on last Friday
was ono Of the most pleasant ever at
tended by either the young or old peo-
pie Of this place, and was in every
sense complete success. About half
the different Sunday schools of the
town repaired to the grove near the
Presbyterian Church, where the MORN
Ing wasspent in various kinds of amuse-
ment. Quite number Of swings had
been put up and croquct set had been
brought TO the grounds. The boys had
brought their bows and quivers; and
several matches were gotten up which
created as much, interest amongst the
Juvenile! !pickickcrs as the most notable
shooting matches of the gorgeous mill
tary. Between swings and shooting
'::aatches and croquet games the morn
ing passed away most delightfully."-.
When dinner was announced it
was found unnecessary TO call
the roll, 80 that was dispensed with.
The tables werc first spread for
the entertainment of the Sunday school
pupils, and afterwards for the teachers
and invited guests. We feel unable to
do justice. to the merits of the table
spread OH this occasion. There was a
superabundance Of tempting good
things, which for variety and richness
we have never seen equaled at any
picnic. When all had fully satisfied
the inner man there was still an abun-
dance left on the tables. And even an
cpicure would have bestowed unstint-
cd praises upon the rich repast. After
dinner Miss Caldwell of North Caroli-
ma was crowned as May Queen by Mr..
r. W. Caldwell Of this place. This
feature of the day was much enioyed
by all who witnessed 1t. The remain
der ofthe day was spent in rambles
for flowers, games and social CONVEX
sation. Thus was spent one of the
most enjoyable days Of the season.
The ladies who assisted in arranging
in the tables and loading them with
dainties, cannot be two highly praised.
They did their part we'll and made the
whole affair reflect their good taste
and judgment.
