Among the common errors in the
use Of language are these: The mis-
prOnOuncing of unaccented syllables,
as terrubIe for terrible; the omission
of letter or short syllable, as goin'
for going, and ev'ry for every; and
the running of words together with
out giving to every one a separate and
distinct pronunciation.
[ know a boy who says, "Don't
wanter" when he means Il don't want
to :" "Whajer say?" when he means
"what did you say?" and 'where de
go?" instead of where did he go?"
Sometimes You hear "licood,' in
stead Of IF | could" 'wiltercan,"
instead of Il will if l can )" and
''howjerknow?" for chow do you
know"
And you have heard .,fn m" in
staed of Eyes" and ''ni-iii' instead
of mo"
Let me give you a short conversa-
ton which [ heard between two pupils
of our high school and see if YOU ever
heard anything similar to it:
''Warejergo lasnight?"
''Haduer skate
''Jerfd th'ice hard'n'good?'
"Ges; hard'nough."
''Jer gOerlone?'
"NO; Bilpn Joe wonterlong."
"lIowlate jersty?"
"Pastate."
"Lemmeknow wenyergoa.in' won

"H-m, fcoo3n't skate better'n
you I'd selout'n'quit."
"WelI, we'll try race'n'seefycrcan.'
Here they took different streets and
their conversation ceased. These
boys write their compositions gram
matically, and might use good language
and speak it distinctly if they tried.
But they have got into this careless
way Of speaking, and make no effort
to get out of it. Whenever they try
to speak correctly they have to grope
their way along slowly, and their eX-
preston seems forced or cramped, as
though it were hard work for them to
talk.
Almost every one talks enough to
keep well in practice, and those who
Try to speak correctly on every occa-
sion soon find that the practice makes
it just as easy for them to use the best
language at their compand as TO use
the most common.
Try it, boys, and see if you cannot
make some Improvement. Keep a
close watch over your conversation,
and when you discover any habitual
error, drop it and substitute the cor
rect word, phrase, or mode of express
sion. You will find that it will sound
much better, and be just as easily
spoken. And, as you get older and
enter a different and wider circle Of
society, you will have acquired for
.y-orrrsrtt n c1rr1Trrur1u tTnguagc and
Il correctness of expression of which
you need not be ashamed. Christian

Strike Among Miners.

Twenty of Pinkerton's detec-
tives, heavily armed, went to Dubois,
Pa, last Friday afternoon, where the
/ Pooheeter ona pittebavS railroad il
having serious trouble with coal min
ers. Several weeks ago the miners
on the low grade division of the AL
leghaney Valley railroad struck and
were joined few days ago by 200
Rochester and Pittsburg miners. New
hands took the places of the latter.
The strikers sent out threatening let
tiers ornamented with skull and cross
bones and the lives and property Of 10y
al miners were in danger. Tuesday
of last week a thousand low grade
division miners camped close to the
mines at Dubois. No demonstration
was made until Thursday, when the
superintendent and his men, as they
were about to enter the mines,
were confronted by large body of
excited strikers, armed to the teeth,
who demanded that the miners quit
work. The men refused, when the
strikers drew their revOlyers and fired
. fusillade in the al. The superin-
tendent and his aids could not control
the men and they fled and have since
been afraid to 60 to work. Fearing
bloodshed," said General Merchant,
1--WE telegraphed for detectives. They
will do police duty and some will min
gle with the strikers and learn their
plans. l am afraid a riot will yet
take place, but hope the detectives
will hold the strikers level" Several
cases Of rifles and ammunition have
been sent to Dubois for the officers.

Jack Radford was hanged at Ere
mont, O., last Friday for wife murder
committed last October. He made a
fierce fight against the officers and
showered blasphemOus and obscene
epithets upon them. After being
dragged to the scaffoId he tried des-
perately to break away and jump
from the platform. With much trOu-
BILE he was bound, and the moose was
adjusted, the drop falling at five min
Utes past noon. Radford spent the
previous night carousing with the men,
drinking whiskey, talking about hOrs-
es and telling indecent stories. While
standing on the gallows piniOned and
the moose about his neck, and clergy

The travelling public in South Car
olina has not yet accustomed itself to
the cOlOred passenger. 4 demand is
made for second class cars, but the
railroad companies say their fares are
already so low, that an inferior rate
would be ruinous. The News and
Courier suggests an expedient which
would be equally effective. 1t pro-
poses that reserve seat tickets be sold
at an advance of so cents on the reg
ular rate, and special car be pro
vided for this class of passengers.
The chair cars on our northern road
operate on the same principle, and
the plan proposed would probably be
found to draw the desired poverty
line with satisfactory distinctness.
Colored people are not always poor,
however, in the north.

SrATEITEMS.

Three deaths have occurred in Al
burgh from malignant diphtheria, and
the disease is raging with unusual Vi
olence.
Rev. George Porter, of Townshend,
has been fined $50 for practicing med
icine without license.
Isaiah Lanya, who attempted to
burn the Mary Fletcher Hospital at
Burlington six weeks ago, was SEN
fenced last week to ten years in the
State Prison.
The body of Charles R.Turner, the
elderly St. Adams man, who disap-
peared mysteriously about three
weeks ago, was found recently near
the village. Turner's neck was fas-
tened in the fork of a tree near the
ground and he had been dead some
days. He probably committed sui
eide while insane.
Isaac Lanya, convicted of setting
fire to the hospital at Burlington,
Jumped from the window of an eX-
press train, running 40 miles an hour,
on his way to prison Friday, but was
soon re-captured, having received no
serious injury.
Eight more writs have been issued
on behalf of the depositors against
Lawrence Bralnerd, President OF the
St. Adams Trust Company. They
are based upon the charges of misap-
preparation of funds.
Judge Boyce has continued the cases
against Lawrence Brainerd, Presl-
dent Of the St. Adams Trust Com
panv, till the April term of the court,
and it is announced as an ''Open Sc
cret" that Brainerd proposes to so to
Colorado to retrieve his fortunes. 1t
is not even pretended that he propos-
es to return. His bail is $50, 200 and
his bondsmen are A. o. Brainerd and
T. A. Stranahan.
There has been some newspaper
and much private comment over the
fact that 5. NJ. Waite, confined in the
House of Correction at Rutland for
robbing the Brattieboro bank, has
been allowed to appear in the village
and at the railroad station without a
keeper. Judge Wheeler at the recent
session of the United States Court at
Rutland, had Superintendent Eayres
hauled up before him and read him a
sharp lecture upon the improperly of
such performances, and Waite will
probably be kept from the public
view hereafter.
States Attorney Hall, at the recent
hearing on the first Of the Lawrence
Brainerd cases, said he was willing to
consent to a change of venue and in
accordance with the willingness then
expressed, he has filed before Judge
Royce petitions for a change of venue
in three of the most important of
these cases. He wants to try them
in Addison county. This will do
away with any fear of not being able
to secure a competent jury, as had
been suggested previously.
The eleventh reunion of the First
Regiment Vermont Cavalry will be
held at Rutland, on Wednesday, Oc-
tober II. All members of the regi-
ment are cordially invited to be pres
ent. Business meeting in the even
ing, after which it is expected ban
quet will be served. The address will
be delivered by Col. William L.
Greenleaf, of Winooski. The Cen
trail Vermont,-and it is expected all
Vermont railroads, will give return
checks to all attending the reunion and
paying full fare one way.

now decides that this practice must
not continue, but knowledge of per-
