BELLS FOR SHBEP.-Tne cheapest and
best insurance against dogs killing sheep
are ells-plenty of bells. TIE sheep dog
is great coward when in pursuit of mis-
chief, and he wants to Go it quietly-wants
no noise, no alarm. Bells bought at whole
sale do not cost much. Buy a side of brI-
die leather at the curriers' for collars, and
put bell on every sheep in your flock If
small. The price of one sheep will buy a
gross of bells and leather enough and buck
les to p them. Put this gro,s of bells on
flock OF sheep and they will frighten
every dog out of the field. Flock masters
are slow to adopt simple, and cheap rem
edy like this, but will go to the legislature
hire lobby influence, aud spend large sums
of money to little purpose. Members Of
the legislature are fond of dogs themselves
and do not want them taxed-They own
no sheep, and care but little about their
protection.

CH1cAGo's LAKE.-Chicago has
discovered a summer lake Of its
own, as beautiful as any in Wiscon.
sin or Minnesota, and only forty
miles from the heart Of the city.
This is Cedar Lake, on the new
line of the Louisville, New AL
bany and Chicago railroad. The
lake is beautiful, clear as crystal
and fresh as Aurora, being fed by
live springs from the bottom. 1t
is full Of all native species of game
fish, and, although only made &C.
ccssible a few weeks since, is al
ready so crowded with excursion.
ists that a large camp is pitched
for their accommodation in the
woods, on the borders Of the lake;
and the whole is under charge of
one Of Chicago's ablest hotel men.
Excursion trains are run on quick
time, and at reduced rates every
Sunday.

A TIMID YOUNG MAN.

According to the Texas Syttng's
mar there is trouble and tribula'
ton in the Nose Schaumburg fam''
~. Young Levi schwindelmeyer
has for some time been paying at
tention to Miss Rsbecca Schaum'
burg, who is considered one Of the
bellies Of Austin. On the Jewish
New Years day. Schwindclmeyer
called O, the Schaumburg mansion.
While Nose Schaumbarg thought
he would stroll out in his garden,
and give the youpg folks a chance,
for Levi is a very excellent young
man, with a great deal of money
and "pishness cabacity." While
strolling about the premises, what
should Nose see but a boy up in
a tree among his fall peaches.
Thirking to terrify the boy, Nose
roared out: 20, you young
schoundrel. Now I secs yon nit

A wild female shrek was heard
from the parlor, the shutters were
torn open, and with a bound
young schwindelmeyer emerged
from the window, and was over
a six.foot board fence and out Of
sight like a fash. he has not
been seen since, although Nose
has been hunting him high and
low, to tell him that his remark
about the shotgun was intended
for the boy in the peach tree.

Buffalo Bill and Sitting Ball.

Buffalo Bill (Hon. W. +. Cody
the renowned scout and actor, has
made a decided hit for the coming
theatrical season in employing the
celebrated Sitting Bull (the In.
chief who slew Custer and his
command on the Little Big Horp)
as one Of his chief attraction.
Buffalo Bills success as an actor
adds an additional charm to the
romance Of his life as the greatest
of all living scouts and plainsmen.
The Historical Publishing Co.,
81. Louis, have issued a life Of
this remarkable man, whose fame
is even greater than that of Daniel
Boone Or Davy Crockett, emsrac-
ing also the lives of Wild Bill,
California Joe, Texas Jack. Kit
Carson, and other great Indian
fighters. 1t is q book of wild life

popularity. The name Of the au-
thor, Mr.. J. W. BueI, is a host

Interesting to Ladies.

Our lady readers can hardl;
fail to have their attention called
this week to the latest combina,
ton Of improvements in that most
useful of all domestic implements

AZ we understand it, a machine
for family Use should meet first OF

be simple III Its mechanism ; it
should run easily +; it should do a

be as nearly n~oiseless as possible ;
it should be light, handsome, dnra-
BILE, and as cheap as is consistent
with excellence throughout.
These conditions the Light.
Running New Home" certainly
meets. 1t has also several very
important and useful attachments
aud notions" Of its own, which 60
far to make good its claims to
popular favor.
Now a great many famiiies.h have
been aud arc still using the old
machines waiting for the times to
improve ; waiting for the latest
improvements in designs and me
chanical excellence.
But why delay longer Cor,
sidering the low prices at which
good machines are now sold. and
the improvements that have hoan
made. now is q good time to buy,
and the New Home" specially re.
commends Itself to purchasers on
account Of its superior mechanical
construction, ease OF management
and reasonable price. Nearly
half a million have been sold in
the last three years, all Of which
are giving universal satisfaction.
This unrivalled machine is manu-,
featured by the New Home Seq

Education and Crime.

When we look closely into this
alleged increase of criminaIity in
our day, We find that it rests main.
ly on the dclusive appearance oc-
casioned By the repeating mirror
Of the press and telegraph.
Never before in the history of
the world were life and limb so
safe az now from the attacks of
crime. Crime has indeed assembled
from the lower and brutal order
above personal violence il a large
measure-and has invaded the
realms that belong to mans re
aected or second nature.
Instead Of the violent deed
which comes back through the
State in sure and swift recoil upon
the criminal, we have more and
more intelligent rascality to use
the words Of a distinguished per-
sonage.
But We must not forget that in
the measure of its intelligence,
rascafity becomes inocuous. Were
it perfectly rational, it were no
crime.
Its circles are much larger than
those Of brute violence, and the
suffering it inficts on humanity
far less; neither does it stand in
the way Of the possibilities Of the
individual to such an extent as
brute violence. It must be confess
ed, however, that most of the in
telligent rascality escapes its de.
served retribution. The statistics
of penitentiaries show that a very
per cent. of we'll educated
men are incarcerated.
The public schools send very
few. Out Of large number Of Grim.
inals in our peniteutiaries, most Of
them have no education. Very few
have had a thorough public school
education. The average statistics
Of the United States show that ont
Of the email per cent. Of the peo-
pie unable TO read and write come
about one,third Of the criminals.
and Of the remaining two.thirds
only one in a hundred has been
educated in the higher branches

AT THE THEATRE.
There was another remarkable
scene at the Theatre in the after
noon, when the guests of the city
crowded to the Theatre to see the
play Of Queens Evidence" by the
Home Dramatic Club. The mem
bers of the committee were busy
seating them; when the parquette
was filled they were escorted to the
first circle, when that was filed,
then the second circle was Occu-
pied, and the young were asked to
give up their seats so that the old
folks could have the best positions
possible. Between the acts, the
committee, with some gentlemen
who voluntarily assisted them,
packed water throughout the house
for the visitors. and did all III their
power to enable them to enjoy the
play. There was pretty nearly
1000 persons present, and it is safe
to say that many Of them had never
been in like place before IN then
long lives. There was not muck
enthusiasm, such as clapDing of
hands or stamping of feet at the fine
points of acting, but many an eye
was wet at the pathetic parts of the
play.
1t was a sight never to be forgot
ten, and many of those present will
never see the like again.
