Helrs Untranslated BIasphemies."

'HeIrs Untranslated BIasphemies.' -
The following touching storm In
cident is told in the Athens Banner
Waterman:
"Col. I. W. Avery tells us that he
spent Thursday night Of this week
with Paul I'll. Hayne, the great south
ern poet. He lives in plain little
cottage in the piney woods near Au-
gusta, Ga. but the tasty hands of
his accomplished and amiable lady
have transformed it into a regular
rural Eden. On every side you see
the evidence of refined industry and
skill. The sitting room is papered
with illustrations clipped from pa
pers, and so arranged as to make a
beautiful effect. Mr.. Hayne is small
of stature, but most joyial and
genial companion. His Ill health
prevents his mingling more freely
with the world. Col. Avery tells us
that Mr. Hayne permitted him to
read a poem that he had just penned
on the cyclone which visited his
humble home, but, happily, without
doing serious damage. He says that
nnder the inspiration of the bowling
winds and lightning's flash, Mr..
Hayne seized his pen and reduced to
verse his sensations on beholding
this wonderful CONFUSION of the ele-
ments. He describes a cyclone as
"The untransIated blasphemies of
hell" 1t is a weird and wonderful
poem, and will rank as one of the
grandest productions Of this gifted
gentleman. When the storm had
passed, Mr.. Hayne walked out into
his porch to see the extent of the
damage, when, in a bower of vines
that hides his porch, he saw a little
bird at work building its nest. The
change was SO startling that the poet
at once returned to his manuscript,
and concluded the production with a
description of the winged songster's
harbinger of calm"

A NEW BRIDGE.
The Bill for the Construction of a New
Bridge Across the Mississippi at
this Point Passes the House,
Some Salient Points.

The bill introduced in congress two
years ago by Congressman Murphy, of
Davenport, authorizing the construction
of a railroad bridge across the river at this
point, passed the house yesterday, as re
ported by the committee on commerce.
This bill provides for bridge across the
river from point below Weyerhauser

the c., B. & @, will in all probability be
utilized in some way A stock company

made across the river for the purpose o.
securing the best line for the proposed
bridge. As soon as the bill shall have

That Monster

The account of the gigantic monster
near Oskaloosa Iowa. which was condens-
ed from three column account in an
Iowa paper and first printed in the ARGUS
and then gobbled by a number of other
newspapers bereabOuts, has caused CON
siderable comment Some people be-
lieved the story, while others did not.
DR.. w, F. Peck, of Davenport, was
in Des Moines recently. He says the
monster story has created great excite
ment throughout the state and he has re-
ceived numerous letters in regard to it q.
Lots OF people want to know more about
the great monster which originated in the
fertile brain of an Iowa journalist When
Mr.. Peck was in Des Moines it is alleged
that at the A5orn house a darkey ran IN
to him with his face as pale as it was pos
sible to get and drawing him aside said,
'Fo' de Lawd massa doctor, is dat true
bout dat big sarpint?' and his eyes stuck
out and he trembled as though he was
afraid the monster would come to life
again and gobblc ali the dalkics in the
country.

The Billiard Match

The friends of Billy" Cation in this
city were sorry to learn last night that he
had been defeated in the first part of the
game by Edward Mclaughlin, of Phila>
delphia. For some reason or another,
Cation did not seem to be in good form.
His highest run was in the eighth inning,
when he made 1873 which was the only
time during the game that he put up o
three figure run. Mclaughlin, in the
eleventh inning surprised himself aud his
friends by running 942 which beats oil
former records in this style of play
His former run, which was the best or
record, was S04. Mclaughlin completed
the 1900 points IN the fortieth inning, his
average being tTiae over 81. Gator
scored 436 during the game, which make!
his average very low, only II 7-39 over II
to the inning. Tonight the closing game
of 1900 points takes place. Mclaughlin
has q majority Of 1904 points to his
credit 1t is possible for Cation to brace
up and run 700 or 800 and beat the Phil,

We have in stock today, We will not be
