AN Englishman in his enthusiasm for
conservative principles recently painted
his dog yellow and the brute died from
the poison contained in the coloring matter.
Tho dogs master was then sued by a
humane society and is now serving six
weeks imprisonment with hard labor.
This tenderness to CANNES is remarkable.

The Big Fifty-Cage and Four King
Show of the Sell Brothers.

This splendid, popular aud most
honorubly conducted Menagerie, Cir
Gus, Caravan and Museum, rumors OF
whose coming have already created
much comment, is at last positively
announced to give after noon ana
evening entertainments in Morris on
Friday May Goth. This stupendous
combination ofleading Railroad Shows
is meeting, this season, with patronage
so extraordinary that the manage
nent have been frequently compelled
to give three exhibitions u day in
order to accommodate the immense
crowds in attendance. Excursions
are arranged on the different railroads
from all points with radius of fifty
miles from the place of exhibition,
and the instances are rare when the
trains do not come in crowded to their
capacity with visitors. Their tents al
though the greatest both i'll number
and magnitude of any show travelling,
are frequently found inadequate to
hold the people, and in order to give
the varied programme in detail, and
without emitting amy of its features,
the management find their many
acres of canvas to be an absolute ne
cessity.
Hours can be spent protitably pass
inc through this wilderness OF tents
OVERLOOKING with the wonders or ZOO
logy, and with the curiositles or sell
ence, art and nature. These vast pa
yilions contain the immense menag-
erie of Gagged wild beasts, catalogued
in which are many that are new 10
America, and none Of which are other
than the rarest specimens.
The pair of huge blood sweating
hippotami owned by the Messrs. Sells
is the only pair in the entire world,
and tue only pair that have ever been
exhibited, or probably ever Will be.
They are truly the behemoths or molly
writ the wonderful scriptural marVels,
described by holy Job. The herds OF
yiratfes owned 10y the A!esslrs Sells
are also curiosities greater than any
owned by amy other show. The en-
tire 50 cages Of animals i'll fact includes
wonders rare and strange from all
families of the quadruped world. The
all star list of zoo first class performers,
IS an unequalled galaxy Of superior
merit, and leads anything which we
have ever seen or heard of i'll the
known world, 200 artists and every
artist q star. Inaword the circus and
the menagerie is superior to any
other travelling or tented exhibition or

The Swift Co. Press says the Morris
base ball club is not ready to play and
that the Benson club can't wait.
Both statements are true. Benson has
few salaried professional men III her
club and of course is anxious to get

so to discharge these men and be at
no further expense.
Sells Bros. advertising car arrived
last Saturday night and left for the

Monday they covered the bill boards
previously erected and emblazoned
quite number of buildings in and
out of town. Quite an "ad' appears

The ladies of the Methodist church
are unfortunate in regard to weather.
One week ago last Friday evening
they had all arrangements completed
for strawberry and ice cream festival
but were obliged to postpone it one
| week because of rain storm. Last
Friday evening the festival
was given but the weather, although
not stormy, was threatning and the
attendance was not as large as it
otherwise would have been. The
strawberries, ice cream and other re-
freshments were excellent and al
present had all enjoyable evening.
Numerous Improvements have been
made in Berkins saloon and billiard
hall. The entire hall has been ele
gantly papered and the furniture new
Iy painted and vanished. An add
ton has also been made to the rear o
the building which is divided int
two rooms one store room and thu
other sitting room. Where the ole
store room used to be, a lunch counte
has been placed. Heavy curtains
adorn the windows. Two of tn
billiard tables have been newt.
covered and everything about the
place has been fixed up in a most at
tractive manner. Mr.. Berkin is
popular, enterprising man and
meeting with gratifying success.

New York Tribune: The use of
federal patronage to secure the nomi-
nation at Chicago Of President Arthur
seems to have led the senate judi
clnary committee to report favorably
a constitutional amendment limiting
the presidential term to six years, and
making the president ineligible for
reelection. There is a good deal to
be said in favor of such an amendment
1t would probably put an end to some
fragrant abuses of patronage that now
exist, particularly in the South. There
would be less danger, if it were adop-
ted, ola presidential candidates being
forced upon the party at the dictation
of states not one of which will give a
single Republican vote in the electoral
college.

A we'll informed contemporary says:
But few realize the fact that success
full horse breeding requires more taste,
more Judgment and more common
sense than is possessed by many men
who follow it. In this, like in all
other undertakings, the taste may be
cultivated, the judgment may be ma
tured and the amount Of common
sense may be increased by patient
study and careful observation, and the
man who bends his energies in this
direction may succeed in the end, al
though he may meet with failure at
first. The majority of horses, it is
true, are not bred and reared by what
we might call professional breeders,
men who spend their entire time and
give their entire attention to the work.
The greater portion of them are bred
by farmers who raise but one or two
year, and do this as kind of a side
issue, not thinking that it would pay
to give the matter even a passing
thought. When farmers begin to
find out that this feature can be made
as remunerative, if not more so, than
any on the farm, as they will then
study the subject more thoroughly
and the result will be that q better
class of horses will be found through
out the country than ever has been
known.
