adopted, it becomes wrong and unlawful
and the person engaged in such force be-
comes wrong doers and law breakers when
such action is attempted. If any body has
right to stop the 5rains from running or
prevent construction or operations on the
road, there is a lawful and proper way to do
it and it ought not to be attempted in any
other manner If such committee was ap.
pointed to perform duties as suggested, We
feel confident that after second though
many, if not all, of the people who attended
that meeting will recall such action and
persue no other course except a truly lawful
and law abiding one.

Our Latest Spring Poem.

The man who writes and writes in verse,
Is seldom worth tinker's curse.
The man who plays the violin
Is always lazier than sin.
The man who thinks he knows it all,
Displays mighty sight OF gall.
The man who thinks himself the best,
Is he whom we should all detest,
But he who pays the printer is
The noblest Roman in the ''biz."

When Oysters ssR'' Good.

HOW ECCENTRIC ORTEOGRAPHY MAY MAKE
THE BIVALVES GOOD IN AUGUST
A few years before the war the firm of Nc.
Spedden & Baker, of New York, had a contract
to furnish several of the government depart
ments with stationery, and for convenience
had warehouse on D street, between 9th and
7th, In charge Of MIR. John D. Callahan, of this
city. 1t so happened that during a holiday one
August the friends Of Mr.. Callahan failed
to find him at his boarding house,
Late in the afternoon, after rapping a
number Of times on the door of the establish.
ment on d street, they were admitted. Mr..
Callahan was found In the rear of the store with
an oyster knife in his hand, seated beside bar
rel; and In it about bushei of the bivalves. Mr..
Callahan explained that that morning he had
received the barrel as a present, and had been
engaged all day shocking and eating. Some Of the
party expressed fears that he would be sick and
one vouchsafed the remark that he was a fool
not TO know that oysters were only good in q
month which contained an 'r'' in its name.
"Aii right, gentlemen; all right" said Mr..
Callahan. "They are twice as good now as in
any other month, for always spell August with
an r-A-u-g- u-r-s-t. Help yourselves"
The crowd could not resist the argument and
out OF regard for Mr.. Galatians health ate the
remainder Of the oysters.

The Ohio Tornado


1LLusTKAT1oNs OF IT'S FoRcE-THEoRIEs CON-
CERNING THE FREQUENT REPORTS OF CY-
CLONES AND TORNADoEs
The tornado which destroyed the town Of
washington, Ohio, is a subject of considerable
comment and discussion here. An old resident
OF Ohio, who has traversed the state so often as
to be familiar with every portion of 1t, says
Washington Court House was one of the pref
tiest towns In the state. The question az to
whether cyclones and tOrnadoes are of more
frequent occurrence during the last few
years than In the period prior thereto is one
that Is discussed with interest. One theory is
mat IN serious elementary disturbances, carrying
IN their wake the destruction of life and prop
erty, are not more frequent than formerly, but
that the existing superior facilities for distrib-
uting news throughout the country dissent
mates information of events the knowledge Of
which was, few years ago, confined to the
locality in which they respectively occurred.
Another theory, which is supported by persons
OF scientific pretenSions, is that the
forests OF the country having been denuded Of
trees the winds have the same wide and fearful
with destructive force.
several letters have been received here by
relatives and friends of persons residing in the
district visited by the tornado. Some Of these
relate singular instances of the freaks Of the
bodily out of bed and along with a mum
posted unhurt several hundred yards
distant. The wind had carried away the roof of
her house, and SO far as she was able to tell she
was found after the tornado had spent its force
on the outskirts of the town stripped of all the
hair which nature had provided for its coat
one man who was aroused from sleep jumped
from his apartment to a roof below fust as the
lower roof was lifted bodily and carried away.
He was killed -
