A BOYS COMPOSITION ON WINTER

A BOYS COMPOSITION ON WINTER
Winter is the coldest season of the
year, because it generally comes in
winter. In some countries winter
comes in the summer and then it is
very pleasant. | wish winter came
in the summer in this country. Then
we could 60 skating barefoot and
slide down hill in linen trowsers. 1t
SHOWS more in winter, because SO
many sleighs and sleds are made
then. Water freezes in winter when
left outdoors. Some people bring in
their cisterns and wells on cold nights
and keep them by the fire so they
don't freeze. -balling is a
great winter sport: sometimes we
SNOWFALL in summer. We use apples,
and it's lots of fun. Winter was
created to help the poor clothing
dealers and coal-dealers to get a
living. Christmas comes in winter
and Fourth of July in summer. Be-
tween summer and winter / think I
prefer antumn. This is all / can
think about winter, except that We
have more doughnuts in winter.

NEVER MIND WHAT

If you know you're doing

With the right on your side,
Never mind what ''they" say.
Lay out in the morning
The plans for each hour,
And never forget
That Old Time is power;
This also remember.

The world is too busy
To think much of you.
Then garner the minutes
That make up the hours,
And puck in your pilgrimage
Honor's bright flowers
Should grumbers assure you
Your course will not pay.
With conscience at rest,
Never mind what '.they" say.
Then let us forgetting
( The insensate throng
That jostles Us daily
While marching along,
Press onward and upward,
And make no delay;
And though people talk,
Never mind what "they" say.

The Two American Societies Arranging
Not to Conflict.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, Dec. 12.-The COM
mittees of the American Home Missionary
Society and the American Missionary AS
sociatiOn, appointed at Saratoga and
Brooklyn the past season, met Secretaries
Barrows and Strictly in this city last
evening.
Resolutions were passed expressing the
judgment of the Joint Committee that the
principal work Of the American Home
Mission Society must be in the West and
that of the American Missionary Associ-
alton in the South; that calls for new
work in any community or locality
ought to be referred to the society
already on the ground and should
be taken in charge by that society, ex-
cept by an agreement of the two that
when it can be done in the interests of
economy, transfers of interests should be
made from one society to the other, and
that the two societies consult each other
as to whether, in some localities. one su-
perintendent cannot serve both societies.
The understanding came out that the
Home Missionary Society does not intend
to undertake aggressive work where the
American Missionary Association is al
ready at work. The decision of the COM
mittee is regarded as settling the policy
OF the two societies.

PARIS, Dec. 12.-At the Cabinet Coun-

he had telegraphed Admiral Courbet to

LeTelegrdphe says that according to the
latest news from China, the father of the

tually deposing the Viceroy and President
of Tsung Ii Yamen.
The Chamber of Deputies has adopted
the budget of the Ministry of Marine.
During the debate upon the budget Admi-
raj Peyron, Minister of Marine, stated
that he would shortly ask for a credit for

bx months.
Nj. Tricon, the late French representa-
tive to China, has arrived at Marseilles.

Ferry told committees of the Republican
and Democratic unions that Immediately
after the vote of confidence in the govern
ment had been passed by the Chamber of
Deputies, he telegraphed to Admiral COur-
bet to inform the Chinese authorities that
it gave the government carte blanche as
question. Admiral Courbet is to propose
to the Chinese officials renewal of nego-
tiations, each side to hold its present
military position in Tonquin. If the pro-
posal is refused Admiral Courbet is to
seize Bacninh, Sontay and Hung Hoa.
When these places are captured fresh
proposals for negotiations are to

powers, and Admiral Courbet will confine
himself to operations deemed necessary to
obtain satisfaction from China.

GREENVILLE's RACE RIOT.

The Rival Political Candidates With
drawn and Peace Restored.
New ORLEANS, Dec. PA dispatch
from Greenyille, Miss, gives the follow
ing particulars of the trouble there on the
10th inst: considerable excitement has
prevailed here for the last month on ac-
count of the municipal elections. j. A.
Lelander and Shaw headed two tickets
for the Mayoralty. Each had strong, de-
termined supporters. Both candidates
have in the past affiliated with the Demo-
cratic party, and in no sense can the
contest be regarded as a conflict between
what are considered the two national
parties. Last Saturday the saloons were
made the rendezvous of the followers of
the candidates. Money was spent
literally, and passions were aroused
to fever heat by drink. In the evening
the Shaw faction held its final meeting at
doc" jones' dance house. In the midst
OF the proceedings melee occurred be-
tween colored man and Frank Mont
gomery, white man. Pistols were
drawn and shooting commenced. Sam
F1llay, a white man, was seriously injured.
and three negroes were shot. One named
Hamer was killed outright. One is eX-
pected to die, and the other is slightly
wounded. The shooting, though generally
deplored, created the bitterest feeling, and
during the entire night and yesterday
morning there were apprehensions of
more trouble. A Coroner's jury found
that Hamer was killed by Montgomery
and Finlay. The evidence was conflict
ing in detail. All the witnesses were
negroes. This occurrence had the effect
of bringing all to a comprehension of the
dangerous state of affairs engendered.
Finally the best citizens came together
and compromise was effected by both
candidates withdrawing and a ticket
being mutually agreed upon, with Mai.
Rucks as Mayor. This action has given
satisfaction, and peace and order are re-
cfnrnl
