AN OLD COURT INCIDENT DOWN SOUTH.
IA strange incident occurred at King.
ston a few days since Judge Rogers
convened Circuit Court and in his hurry
to empanel the grand jury selected thir-
teen men from the number in the court
room. The law requires a small child to
draw the names from box, and when
Judge Rogers mode was discovered on
Thursday the entire business of the
grand jury was set aside and a new
panel was ordered. When the names
were drawn from lot Of 200 they were
precisely the same as had been chosen
by the judge when court first convened.
It is remarkable coincidence Chatta-

The Ohio farmer says: Farmers
should study grass more. Ascertain
what species grow naturally on the farm,
and study their character. Observe
which stands drought best, which pre-.
fers q dry or wet soil, which stock ike
best and which they thrive on best.
There is no doubt that we loose much
every year by negIecting to cultivate those
grasses naturally adopted to our soils.

Killed by an Imaginary Cobra.

Surgeon-General Francis, of the In
dian Medical Service, reports the fol-
lowing case: A drummer was sudden
ly aroused from his sleep by something
creeping over n of his naked legs. He
immediately jumped to the conclusion
that it was a cobra, and his friends, col
lected by his cutlery, not unnaturally
thought so, too, and he was treated &C
cordingly. lamentations, such as are
customary among the natives on these
occasions, were resorted to, and the
poor fellow was tlagellated with twisted
cloths on the arms and legs in view
partly to Gus him, but principally to
drive out the evil influence (spirit?)that
for the time being had got hold of
him. With the first light of dawn the
II of the fright was discovered in the
shape of a harmless lizard, which was
lying crushed and half killed by the
side Of the poor drummer. But it was
too late. From the moment when he
believed that a poisonous snake had
bitten him he passed into an increasing
collapse until he died. The drummer was
not a strong lad, and the shock was too
much for him.-Medieal Times.

punish-my father was dead, making
it all the harder for her, but she never
got impatient. How in the world she
bore with all my stubborn, vexing ways
so patiently will always be to me ono
troubling her, knew it was changing
her pretty face, making it look anxious
and old. After awhile, firing of all
restraint, I ran away, went off to seal
and a rough time I had of it at first.
Still, 1 liked the water, and liked
i%ourneyipg around from place to place!
Then l settled down to business in q
foreign land, and soon became pros
porous, and o began sending her
something beside empty letters. And
such beautiful letters as she always
wrote me during those years of cruel
absence. At length 1 noticed how
longing they grew, longing for the pres.
ence of the son who used to try her so;
and it awoke a corresponding longing
in my own heart to go back to the dear
waiting soul.
$50 when I could stand it no longer.
[ came back; and such a welcome, and
such a surprise! My mother is not a
very old lady, boys, but the first thing I
noticed was the whiteness of her hair,
and the deep burrows on her brow; and
[ knew how 1 had helped bleach that
hair to its snowy whiteness, and had
drawn those lines in that smooth fore
head. And those are the burrows I've
been trying to straighteA out.
"But last night, while mother sat
sleeping in her chair, 1 sat thinking it
all over, and looked to see What prog
ress | had made.
''Her face was very peaceful, and the
expression content as possible, but the
burrows were still there! I hadn't
Strengthened them out-and-I-never
shall! never!
'When they lay my mother-my fair
old sweetheart-in the casket, there will
be burrows in her brow; and l think it
a wholesome lesson to teach you, that
the neglect you offer yourparents' coun-
sells now, and the trouble you cause
them, will abide my lads, it will abide!!',,
"But," broke in Freddie Hollis, With
great troubled eyes, 81 should think if
you're SO kind and good now, it needn't
matter SO much!'
"Ah, Freddie, my boy" said the
quavery voice Of the strong man, "you
can not undo the past. 'sYou may do
much to atone for it, do much to make
the rough path smooth, but you can't
straighten out the old burrows, my lad
dies; remember that!'-CA7istian Week.

"But first I'll tiss my dollics,

So tiptoe stepped the darling,

Her new French doll was lying

"~Dood-night," she said, 'swcetL ucie:
I hope you'll feel at home,
And not be awful sorry
To live with me you've come"
Then Susie passed t. Emma,
child with gypsy face,
And golden ringlets tangled
Adolly in disgrace.
"You naughty, naughty Emma,
You've broke my heart this day;

You twy for your own wayl
"Butnow I must forgive you,
Or nelse l touldn't s'eep;
BE sure you're dOod tomorrow
Your hair is such q heap
One more-poor homely Maggiel
Ababy made of rags
With darkly-penciled features,
And fingers stiff as tags.
And Susie in q rapture
Caught up the ugly thing
"You are the bcstest baby,
The sweetest, dearest Sing"
And in her soft arms Graded,
Held close beside her head,
And snuggled UP to Susie,
Poor Maggie went to bed.

How WHITE READS HIS BIsLH.-

Iabored long and was poor. he was
reading the bible on Sunday. Is al

aud the book dropped over . pre-.

down the canon and found it open,
with piece of quartz lying on the
verse: ASK, and it shall be given
you; seek and ys shall find knock.
and it shall be opened unto you"
Accepting this as good omsa, Mr..

The interest in tho Rra nd series Of
excursions over the Bal timore and

psr's Ferry, Lursy Caves, Old Point
Comfort, Fortress Monroe, Mount
Vernon, &c., inci eases as the time
draws near. Certainly no such at
tractivs programme has been offered
BY any great railway line for years.
There is almost no end to the enjoy
ment provided. OF course Baltimore
will be the base of operations, all the
special trips named being from the
Oriole City. The Baltimore and
Ohio's tickets will be good to Balti-
more, and sold at half rate, that is to
say, one regular fare for the round
trip. Once In Baltimore, the excur-
sionist may enjoy himself at will. If
he concludes to go on all tho special
excurSions he does so and pays &C.
cerdingly. II only part of them, then
hs pays for those and no more. II
none Of them, then be pays for pons.
This certainly is the only fair basiy
upon which such a series OF excur-
sions could be arranged, and must
meet the endorsement of all interest
