An Ancient Story Of the Anglers.

Three fishers went gaily out into the North
Out into the North ere the sun was high;
And they chuckled with glee as they sailed forth
Resolved to capture the trout--or die
For men will fish, and men will lie
About the trout they caught on the fly
Their sunday school lessons scorning.
Three fishers lay under the trees at noon,
And blamed" the whole OF the fnny race:
For never a nibble had touched fly or spoon,
And each sighed as he wet the hole in his face
For men will fish and men win lie
And the the way they catch trout when nobody's
nigh
Il something to tel-in the morning.
Three fishers came into town at night,
And their "speckled beauties were fair to see !;
They talked OF their sports with keen delight
The envy of all the fraternity.
But men will fish, and men will lie,
tAud what they can't catch they're sure to bny,)
And never repent in the morning.

An earnest effort has been made this
year to reduce the number of grades in
the First Primary department to the
proper number (two). 1t seems, how
ever, that this intention must be de-
feated by the entrance of large num-

to enter either one of the grades Par
ents little realize how much they in
crease the work and hinder the plans
of graded school in this way. Next
term these children, who are now at
tending for the first time, could enter
regularly and fall into the proper grades
without increasing the number of
classes.

The Educational Reporter says: "The
school textbook of our fathers may still
be found on the dusty shelves of the old
bookshops, and it is strange thing to
look upon. To examine it, is to realize
that it belongs to another, and an al
most forgotten age. The crude methods
and cruder arts of early days have gone
TO the limbo, and no one cares to recall
them to sight again" After residence
at Lancaster the Reporter would prob
ably revise its opinion.

DEATH OF WILLIAM b. BAXTER. 1t
would hardly be possible to convey an
idea of the shock with which the COM
munity was startled, Monday morning
last, on learning of the sudden death of
VIM. b. Baxter. Mr.. Baxter was IN
apparent health, and in his usual cheer
full spirits, up to 6 o'clock on Sunday
evening; but while sitting at the supper
table he suddenly raised his hand to his
head, uttered the one word congestion
and very soon became unconscious.
He never spoke again, nor regained
consciousness, though the machinery of
life did not cease its functions until 10
o'clock. Medical assistance was soon
at his bedside, but all efforts of the ply
sicians availed nothing. Mr.. Baxter
has for many years been leading mer-
chant OF Lancaster, having settled here
in 1855 and carried on the drug trade
from the time of his first coming. His
genial social nature was his distinguish
ing characteristic, and society has lost
by his death one who was gifted with
the happiest powers of entertaining
He was born in Blenheim, n Y, and at
an early age removed with his parents
to Saltwater where he spent his child
hood, obtaining at the academy in that
city and later at the Schoharie academy,
his education. After finishing his school
life he went to Fort Wayne, Ind, where
he was engaged in business up to the
time of his coming to Lancaster. Mr..
Baxter was the oldest of four brothers,
all of whom have resided for many
years in or near this city.
He was 81 years of age, having been
born Sept. "a, 1888, but his cheerful
lightheartedncss had so far combatted
the encroachments of time that he
seemed almost a young man. He leaves
widow and three sons, besides large
circle of friends who mourn his death
with a deep and sincere sorrow. The
funeral services were held at the family
residence on. Tuesday at ? p. NJ, the
Rev. Mr.. Eaton officiating. Testimony
to the sterling worth of the deceased,
and the high esteem in which he was
held, was afforded by the unanimous
action of the merchants in closing their
places of business Tuesday afternoon,
and in the throng which gathered to
pay their respects at the funeral

COM M ERCIAT,.


The markets have been excited
throughout the entire week. The report
that actual hostilities had begun be-
tween Russia and England. also the very
bad winter wheat reports from all sec
TONS. has caused a sharp advance on all
produce. The receipts are also light at
all country points, as the farmers are
now busy with their spring work.
Wheat has had the largest boom, being
about &c higher than week ago.
Should war be actually declared it would
no doubt be the cause of a further adj
vance in prices. Corn advanced SIC,
and oats about PC. The hog market
comes in with an advance of 15(d2oc for
the week, the receipts being about Co.,
600 head at Chicago. Lancaster buyers
paid about 400 for common light hogs,
and the receipts were about 25.
