A Fearful Tale.

Never had the bright blossoms
of hope and things of that kind
been showered around a betrothal
of moro promise than that of Keno
Maude, the bride Of the Owl Creek
diggings. Her lover was both q
gentleman and q scholar from
away up the creek. Beauty, too,
had fiowered her with ripping
trcsses of the deepest Venetian
red, and him with tawny locks Of
pure jet; his mustache and tall
boots were blacked carefully each
day. Her eyes were blue and soul.
full, with brows of ecru, which ra-
pidly changed to creamy white,
with eye-winkers of the same.
Her nose was as daintily carved
as a sculptor's dream, while her
delicate nostrils at times would di.
late in response to her surging
thoughts like the gills of a Goldfish.
Her mouth was small, like a coral
cleft, and her teeth we're mostly
her own. AS soon as she got them
paid for they would be all her own.
There was, too, an expression in
that rosebud mouth that betoken.
ed strength of will and adamantinc
resolve.
|. He was sinewy and tall, with
piercing eyes and eagle nose. He
was the sturdy oak, with sweep
ing branches. around whose trunk
clung Keno Maude, the dove-eyed
hollyhock from up the gulch. 1t
would be well to remember that
she was a darling and he was no
slouch, while the most unobserv.
ing and careless of the great jost'
ling crowd could see at a glance
that she was his'n and he was
her'n.
You could see that she would
cling to him right on through want
and shame and chattel mortgages.
Yet there was no fear of these,
for he was highly educated, and
owned, beside. the prospect known
as Snoring Bride, at the head OF
Owl Creek. SO when the SHIN
mering moon shimmered down
through the leaves of the signing
pines, she sllimmered on two peo-
pie who were solid on each other.

Inered on these people things were

How Sugar Is Adulteratcd.

The high duty on raw sugar Gu.
courages adulteration by the use
of glucose. Under the present
duty raw sugars are worth from %
TO "a cents per pound. In the
West, where IL is chiefly made,
glucose is worth but from 5 to B
cents per pound. 1t can be mixed
with all soft sugars, such as are
largely sold in the West, to tho
extent of 10 to 25 per cent. with.
out being detected, except by the
most accurate chemical analysis.
Indeed, glucose improves the ap.
pearance of yellow sugar, and 80
far from being improved by the
polariscopic test, tends to increase
the apparent per centage of sweet
in the samples submitted to such
test. Glucose may not be poison
itself, but the person who buys
sugar does not desire to pay full
price for an article having from
one.fifth to one.tenth of the sac.
charine substance which pure su.
gar contains. That this article
is being used extensively to adul.
terate sugar in the West is proved
by the large number of glucose
factories which have been built
there during the past six years.

Set Down by a Plain Statement.

Under our State law il is the
duty of the Auditor to distribute
the sSOO,O0O of State School fund
to the various county treasurers
ON the lst day of January of each
year. 1t is now month past that
period and Mr.. Ross has not re.
ceived Noxubee eounty's distribu.
tive share of that fund yet. Mr..
Ross was compelled to suffer the
humiliation of requesting Super
intendent Peace TO withhold the
school warrants for the month of
January, as he could not pay them
because of the failure of the Au-
ditor to perform his duty, and Mr..
Ross did not wish that spectators
should prey on the teachers who
if the warrants were issued would
be compelled to hawk them on the
curb-stone.
At the last session of the legis.
lature q bill was passed requiring
the distribution of u fund amount.
ing to upwards of $4,000 to the va
rious counties for the erection of
school houses. The statute is
mandatory, and yet the Auditor
has never taken any steps to exe-
cute the law in this particular. No
one knows where that $4,000 is, or
who is the beneficiary of the inte.
rest it is presumed to earn.-Ma.
con Sun.
The Sun evidently labors under
a misapprhension Of the law and
has (no doubt unintentionally) sug.
gested q wrong imputation upon
the officials referred to. AS to the
first count, we will refer our con.
temporary to Revised Code (sec.
72J) which makes it the duty of
the Auditor of Public Accounts
to distribute the School Fund on
the LIST ofJuly and January of each
year, "or as soon thereafter as
practicable.n This distribution
cannot be made until the reports
are received from all the counties.
The last of these reports was not
received until the I'd of February,
and the distribution is now being
made. 1t could not have been
! made earlier. II there has been
delay, the blame cannot be impu
ted to the Auditor.
AS to the second count, 1t should
be explained that the $4,000 alleged
to have been appropriated for the
! building of school houses belongs
TO the credit of the two and tire,
per cent. fund, and that the STATE
Treasurer has been enjoined from
distributing it on the petition 0
! the Vicksburg aud Meridian Rail
> road Company which claims tina
the fund was appropriated by Con
grcss for tho construction of th,
! road. Thus restrained by th'
Court the Treasurer cannot toucl
the fund, and is compelled to wal
: until the question is judicially de
I termined.-JacksOn Clarion.

Several nights ago colored

man was promptly arrested and
committed without bail; and al

had money or influential friends to
help him to escape punishment,

a small cannon besides the pistols
