Franklin Twp, School No. 2.

EDS. CITIZEN The winter term OF
the above named school closed on
March llth, as did nearly all the other
schools in the township.
The morning was an omen OF q wet
day, and before noon the gentle rain
came pouring down, deluging the fields
and roads; and, as u consequence, the
scholars and |, with three citizens pres
ent, had to make the best of the day
we could If the day had been nice
there would have been quite number
of the citizens and friends of education
present, as it is nothing more than
right for tie patrons and friends to
come out en- masse, and by their pres
ence, if nothing more, show their ap-
probation for what the master" has
tried to do. | wish to extend my
sincere thanks to the citizens of the
district for the generosity and kindness
with which they have used me; also
to the directors for the deep interest
they took in all the schools. Enthusi-
astic directors make interested patrons;
patrons, pupils; pupils and teacher, the
school. The spring term will begin
on March 3lst, with change of teach
ers for some of the schools, owing to a
reduction of ten dollars per month OF
the wages. OF course we will not dis
cuss the derogative tendencies of this
step During the term, Charlie Stew.

A Stingy Man.

Talking about stingy men," said
the conductor of Pullman car, as he
sat in the smoking room while the por-
ter was doing the work; "the worst
specimen ever saw came out of Detroit
the other night His wife, great fat
woman, was with him, and they took
seats in the ordinary coach. Pretty
soon ho came back, selected bertha
single upper-and then went back to
his wife Pretty soon he returned and
went to bed alone About an hour af-
ter this | was going through the train
when the fat woman stopped me and
wanted to know if / had any empty
berths- | told her there were plenty
of them, when she brought her lips
together like wise and clenched her
fat hands as she said: "I thought az
much Here. take my bag with you,
and make me up the best section you
YOU have. I'll be back as soon as the
train stops again You see, that sell
fish husband of hers told her there
wasn't an empty berth left, but he had
a chance to share bunk with an ac-
uuaintance. He was the maddest man
you ever see next morning, when he
had to hand over So for her nights
rest, in addition to the 50 so he had
paid for his own. He gave the porter
only two cents for shining his shoes,
and scowled so the porter didn't dare
kick for more"

How TO Treat Sudden Wounds.

The subject of one of the lectures by
the Society for Instruction in First
Aid to the Injured, delivered by Dr.
ID. l.. Woodbridge, of this city, was
what to do in case of sudden wound
when a surgeon is not at hand" He
said in part:
An inexperienced person would nat
urally close the lips of the wound as
quickly as possible, and apply band
age If the wound is bleeding freely,
but no artery is spouting blood, the
first thing to be done is to wash it
with water at an ordinary temperature.
To every pint of water add either five
grains of corrosive sublimate or two
and half teaspoonfuls of carbolic acid.
If the acid is used add two teaspoon
fuls of glycerine, to prevent its irrita-
ting the wound. If there is neither of
these articles in the house, add four
teaspoonfuls of borax to the water
Wash the wound, close it, and apply q
compress of folded square of cotton
or linen. Wet it in the solution used
for washing the wound, and bandage
down quickly and firmly. If the bleed
ing is profuse, a sponge dipped in very
hot water and wrung out in cloth
should be applied as quickly as possi-
lbe. If this is not available, use ice.
or clothes wrrng out in ice water. If
large vein or artery is spouting, it must
be stopped at once by compression.
This may be done bv a rubber tube
wound tightly above the elbow or above
the knee, where the pulse is felt to beat
or an improvised tourniquet may DO
used. A hard apple or a stone NAV be
placed in folded handkerchief, and
rolled firmly in place
This bandage is then placed so that
the hard object rests on the part where
the artery beats, and is tied loosely
around the arm A stick is then thrust
through the loose bandage and turned
till the flow of blood ases.-Ea.

MARCH IS, 1884.
EDS. CITIzEN-We are comforted
that it is nearing spring, if we are
nearly covered up by the beautiful
mud.
Mr.. T. W. McNees, going to his
we'll on the Port Kelly farm, last Tues
day morning, was thrown from his
horse, by the animal stumbling, had
his left leg broken at the knee; the leg
had previously been injured and was
stiff at the joints. He is getting on
remarkably we'll and not suffering
much pain.
Mr.. j. T. McNees, farther of T. W.,
was attending the stock during his
sons affiiction, and on Sabbath evening
went to the NOW over the barn floor,
to throw down hay, and fell through
to the floor below, and wonderful to
say was not much injured, but received
pretty thorough shaking up.
The public school, under Lizzie
Kelly, teacher, gives public enter

being made.

Yes, CITIZEN, in regard to the "se-
crecy" with which Republican County
Committee have chosen to treat, or
rather insult the people by keeping
proceedings from them by not giving
them to the papers, you can say eff the
other fellow is satisfied we are" Yes,
you can afford to say that, having
always upheld the rights of the people
against ring" rule. You can with a
satisfied conscience receive such a
brunt; but not so the people, it is they
and not the papers that ought to know,
Is the party to be led by "secret"
conclave of "leaders?" If so, thank
God there are other parties in the
country and a coming up. This Sc
crecy is an insult to the intelligence of
the people of the county. If the COM
mittee wished to rebuke the "papers"
why did they not do so in a manly
way to the editors, and not rebuke the
people We would venture ten to one
that certain well-known politician
(Ed) knows it all (favored) and it will
give time to get the wires all in good
working order. No more secrecy, nor
"wire pulling" for the Republicans of
Parker township.

The LATEST Man Out.

Suspension Bridge comes to the
the front with the man that seems
honestly to have the reputation of be-
ing lazy. He boarded at the hotel
until the landlord concluded he was a
fraud and had him arrested and sent to
Jail. A day or two ago the Sheriff had
some prisoners employed in shoveling
snow; and asked the "boarder" to as
sist, which he refused to do. The
Sheriff then gave him the choice of
shovelng snow or being shot. The
Sheriff, with the assistance of one of
the attaches, then proceeded to shoot
him, A gun was procured and loaded
with blank cartridge. The prisoner
was then to stand in the corner of the
cell, with his face to the wall, while
the Sheriff stood near him with large
book in his hand, and another party
was in the cell with the gun. The
word was given, the gun discharged,
and the prisoner hit in the back of the
head with the book, when he dropped
to all appearances dead, and probably
thought he was, but he soon recovered.

Rebuked by an Indian.

On Fort Wayne train approaching
Chicago there was o short statured
straight-haired, copper-colored Indian,
going back to the reservation after
trip to the Indian school at Carlisle,
Pa. He wore nice suit of clothes,
which fitted him badly, and a paper
collar without any necktie. He attend
ed strictly to his own business, and
was unmolested until young prig
came into the smoking car from the
sleeper. "An Indian, l guess" said
the young chap as he lighted a cigar
ettee. And then, approaching the son
of the plains, he attracted general at
tention by shouting. with strange ges-
lures: ugh, heap big Injun? Omaha?
Sioux? Pawnee? See Great Father?
Have drink fire-water? Warm Injun's
blood" The copper-colored savage
gazed at the young man a moment
with an ill-concealed expression of con-
tempt on his face, and then said, with
good pronunciation. "You must have
been reading some dime novels, sir. |
am going back to my people in Mon
tana, after spending three years in the
East at school. / advise you to do

out, and, amid general laugh, q
much crest-fallen young man retired
to the sleeping coach.

A Blind Man who Can Pick Cotton

Taylor county, among other things

yet he has always been able with the
assistance of his wife, to make a decent
living for Themselves and large family
of children. His name is Ben Caldwell
and more industrious negro cannot be
found i'll the country, number of far
mers will testify to the fat that Ben
can pick $50 pounds OF cotton per day,
aud with the assistance of his too little
boys can tie into bsndles all the grain OF

anv kind Of farm work.
Death claimed his companion but a
few days ago as its victim, yet poor Ben
is striving hard t, support his family on

that he never forsets voice after once
