Keely, of Philadelphia, has really discovered q
valuable power, which needs but be properly
directed to be of incalculable benefit to commerce.
That this "believer" is president of the Keely
Motor Stock Company may cause some to doubt
his statement as beinga little preiudced, but it
ought not. Keely has promised so often TO have
his baby cyclone i'll harness by "uext August"
that it is a shame to longer doubt The presi-
dent now declares that 1--WE are now building a
5oo-horse power locomotive" etc. We can only
hope to be blessed with life until it is ready to
perform as announced on the bills.
Mr.. JOHN F. WMDMAN, ex-collector of the An
derson district, and one of the best known and
most capable men in the State, has purchased
the Munce Times and that old and Influential
organ of Delaware county Republcanism will
hereafter be published under his personal super
vision. The Republicans OF Munce and of Della
ware are to be congratulated upon the acqui-
sition of Major Wildmau to their community,
and particularly in this important and RESPONSE
BILE position, for " hich he is well fitted. The
Times cannot help but maintain all its old influ-
ence under the new ownership.
4 THE southern California gold bubble has col
lapsed. The alleged mines very difficult of
access, aud the nearest wet-weather stream is
twelve miles distant, and in the dry season water
cannot be had within less than twenty seven
miles. For the benefit of tramps and adventur-
ers who had thought of going thither it Is but
fair to say that the southern Illinois peach crop
will ripen by the end of June this year, and
farmers are going to pay SIG day for people
to eat the fruit to keep it from spelling. Now is
the time to start, as to be on hands before the
grand rush.
THE bees over in Pennsylvania attack the
work horses in the field. The bee in Indiana is
having more fun than that in plying his business
end about the ears Of our great statesmen
Why, the great political circus now in full blast
among the Democracy of the whole country,
originated from the buzzing of one of the smart
Western bees. He was a stinger, and is liable to
make somebody break something.
MORE proves. william W. Green, reputa-
BILE farmer of Grant county, Kentucky, was
ambushed by ,he Jump family, and seventy-two
bnckshot fired into his body; six of the Jumps
have been arrested, and the inference is that the
rest Of the family jumped the country. The
amount of chivalry displayed in these assassina-
lions is amazing. What Is kentucky chivalry,

WHEN Mr.. Gladstone wants little recreation
he goes out and chops down a tree. Fired by his

dental killing OF young man in their employ.
The father of the young man sued for damages

could not possibly need more than that amount
to carry him through his earthly career.
ANXIOUS Reader: No, 1T is no longer thought
that cyclones take their origin from college COM
mencement speeches. They are similar in their
characteristics, but one is severer than the
other, or perhaps it would be more accurate to
say that one is milder than the other We do
not know which one, however.
THOSE who went to Carolina Island to view
the recent solar eclipse, report perfect weather

the exact distance of the sun, which will be the
source Of great satisfaction to people buying fuel

on hands. 1t must be eaten, and it would be
cruelty to animals to ask a few men to devour it
all.
