Tributes to Bis Character.

Lafayette journal (Editorial.l
In some respects Mr. Lngle was a remarkable
man. Like most men of strong, positive charac-
ter, he also had many faults, but there was moth
ing weak about him-he gave and took blows
bravely A man of splendid moral courage of
undoubted abilities, of strong likes and disIkes,
of warm temperament and quick impulses, his
life has been stormy but successful one. Dur
ing his life as a journalist he has probably said
many unjust and unwise things. but he has also
said and done much that must be placed to his
credit, and over his coffin lid we can afford to
pay tribute to his many good qualities and blot
from memory all real or fancied injuries. In
journalism his methods were original and unique.
The newspaper was merged in the strong indi-
viduality of the mantle personality of the
man ran through every line of the Courier and
cropped out between them He was intense
partisan and his political articles were always
vigorous crisp and telling. In personal inter,
course he was a perfect gentleman of the old
school-always courteous, affable and
polished; and to this quality may be attributed,
in large degree, his success as a journalist and
as man Of Mr.. Lingles family relations
too much cannot be said. He was devoted
father and husband All the happy traits of his
nature played in full force here. In the seclu-
sion of his home and in the midst of devoted
family he passed his happiest hours. Here the
blow will strike hardest. Others will forget and
scar will remain forever. The aged mother, too

"By the way, didn't we have a baby

"Yes," she asid. oscar was born

that the infant Oscar had been kidnap-

that the most careful search, aided by
advertisements in the daily papers, had
thus far failed toreveal his whereabouts.

An English scientist had an Ameri-
can mosquito under the microscope, and
finds it to be thoroughly-equipped sur
geon. In its bill are five instruments
a lance, two meat-saws, a suction pump,
and small steam engine. 1t appears
that when "skeeter" settles down TO
his work upon nice tender portion of
the human frame, the lance il e irst push
cd into the flesh, then the two saws,
placed back to back, begin 10 work up
and down to enlarge the hole then the
pump Is inserted, and the victims blood
IS syphoned up to the reservoirs carried
behind, and finally, to complete the cru
city ofthe performance, the wretch drops
a quantity of poison into the wound TO
keep it irritated. Then the diminutive
fiend takes fly around Just to digest
your gore, and makes tracks for a fresh
victim, or if the first one has been of un-
usually good quality, he returns to the
same happy hunting grounds.

Il have always voted the Democratic
ticket, and since 1856 that ticket has

SOCIAL TRAGEDIES.
A Young Lad.'s Death by Burning that
Recalls Mrs. LongfelIow's Death.

Young Lads's Death by Burning that
Recalls Mrs. LongfelIow's Death.
Since the death of the young and love-
ly wife of the poet Longfellow, which oc-
CURED more than twenty years ago at
her beautiful home at Cambridge, scarce
ly anything more tragical has taken
place among well-known people than
the accident by which Miss Laura De-
lano lost her life. WI n the worst has
happened suggestions ar as unavailing
rs regrets and yet cIiani les of this kind
are all the more narrowing by reason of
their appearing to the survivors to be so
unneces sarv and eas ly avoided. In the
ease of Mrs. Longfellow the sleeve of
her muslin dress was ignited by taper
which she was using in making sealing
wax Impressions to amuse her children.
Terror, confusion and dismay followed.
The house had been put in summer or
der, after the fashion If American house,
keepers in those days not a carpet rug
or blanket was to be had and although
her husband was on the spot and nearly
lost his own life in heroic efforts to ex-
tinguish the flames, the unfortunate lady
perished on her own lawn and in sight
of all that she held most dear. Almost
the same tragedy was enacted in the
case of Miss Delano last Sunday. She
was but nineteen years of age and en-
dowed by nature with graces of mind
and character which were only equaled
by her remarkable personal beauty.
While she was adjusting an alcohol lamp
especially adapted to the heat ng of min
ute tongs for the curling of ladies' front
locks it is supposed that the fame shot
up, setting fire to her hair and in few
moments she had rushed out Of doors a
blazing mass of fire. A little foresight
or presence Of mind, blanket from the
bed, shawl wrapped round her, and a
valuable life might have been saved.

Facts l., Wheat Culture.

The following are the practical conclu-
sions arrived at as the result of expert
ments made at the Ohio Agricultural ex-
pertinent grounds in 1888, according to
the report of Prof. W. r. Lazenby, d.
rector.
]. Winter wheat may be sowed too
carly in the season, or it may be sowed
too late, so there must be certain time,
neither too early nor too late, which is
the best date to put in the seed.
2. Many factors must be considered
in designating the best time, TO cow.
The condition of the soil, and the expos
ure. the presence of the Hessian, fly, etc.
must all be duly considered.
3. Early seeding does not secure an
early harvest. The same variety sown
under the same condition will mature
abont the same time whether the seed
ing be done the first of September or the
first of October.
4. Wheat sown as late in the season
as it can he, and still be given time to
become firmly and strongly rooted, and
time to develop leaves sufficient to cover
the whole ground will best endure the
winter
5. The earliest sown wheat usually
has the largest top and proportionally the
smallest root; in the latest sown wheat
the root is proportionally larger.
s. On poor soil and badly prepared
ground the wheat should be sown earli-
er than upon rich soil and a well pre-
pared seed-bed
Z In this latitude the Hessian fly is
not very troublesome in wheat sown lat
er than September 25th.
s. The best date for sowing winter
wheat in central Ohio is from September
10 to September 80, according to the
clndition mentioned above.

Above the Average.

Apropos of the circumstance Of his re-
cent address TO the graduates of the
University of Texas, good story is told
of old Governor Hubbard Not long ago
he was sitting in the Office of friend in
Galveston when he happened to pick up
one ofMcGuffies school-readers Glanc-
ing through the book he came upon a
poem which interested him somewhat.
He read 1t over two or three times and
was more and more pleased with it each
time.
"John," said he to his friend, who is
this man Gray who writes poetry for the
school-books?"
Gray? Gray? Upon my word can't
fix the name, although it sounds fanil-
lar"
"Pd like to meet him." said Governor
Hubbard 81 have just been reading one
ofhis poems, and it is considerable above

Poem? What is it called?"

A little pet snake of the perfectly
harmless sort, belonging to the wife of
the County Court Judge, made its escape
and wriggled over the wall into the next
garden. Two domestics who were there

ing themselves. The inhabitants of the
whole row of houses appear to have gone
with terror. To one gentleman, who
