A Noble Western Girl.
[From the Bismarck Tribune.l

Miss Belle Franklin, a young school
mistress of McHenry county, is the
heroine of the Missouri slope. Miss
Franklin was sleeping in shack which
she had builtupon her claim, when she
was awakened by the cracking noise OF
the prairie fire. Looking across the
plain she saw the dancing flames skim
ming across the prairie. The brave girl
knew that her neighbors, living half
mile distant, were away from home,
and the fire would soon envelop the
house, barn, hay and grain. Jumping
from her bed she hurried away to the
low log barn in which the farmers
extra team was tied. Harvesting the
animals, she rushed them out to the
plow, and before the fire reached the
premises she had turned several burrows
and formed a fire-break which saved
the property. Whata subject for an
artist!

Foraker In Favor of the Re-enact
ment of the Scott Law.

In his inaugural address, speaking of
the liquor question, Governor Foraker
says:
"During the recent canvass one of the
questions that largely engaged the at
tention of the people was what should
be done with respect to the liquor traf-
fic. This question is of the greatest inn
portance, but it is so related to personal
habits and private morals as to renderi it
impossible to make it political ques-
ton i'm the ordinary sense, and expert
ence has taught in our own State and
others that it should not be party
question in any sense. The evils of this
business are of such character that
good men of all parties should stand to-
ge5her for their suppression, and it is
thought the time has at last come when
they may do so. For if anything has
been accomplished by the discussions
we have had, it is that there shall be no
longer free trade for this traffic in Ohio,
either by the absence of all legislation
or by what is equally detrimental to the
interests of the State and the morals of
thepeople, only such legislation as there
is no public sentiment tosupport. Such
was the platform of the parties that pre-
Vulleu at our luSU eleCtiOu. IL WAS ClelT-
" announced and emphatically endors-
ed. There should be, therefore, an inn
mediate enactment of efficient measures
to prevent and suppress the evils of in
temperance, including the imposition
of a tax upon the business wherever
carried on. The so-called Scott law
was a wise provision of this character.
The decision of the Supreme Court, de-
claring it unconstitutional, was founded
ON only one feature of the statute. The
constitutional right to impose the tax
was not, and cannot be successfully
questioned. The difficulty is removed
by simply ommitting the Objectionable
feature. Such measure has the merit
of being practical; no constitutional
amendment is necessary; it is imme-
diate in its benefits; public sentiment
will uphold and enforce it; it will great
ly diminish the number of places where
the business is carried on, and if wisely
administered, it will, in large degree,
suppress the evils of all, and at the same
time yield much needed revenue, and
leave the people free to deal with it
further as they may ultimately see fit"

A Scientific Preacher that Made
Findlay Rich.


Rev. Mr. Davies, q clergyman Of the
Genital Ohio Conference Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, and q gentleman
Iof large scientific attainments, was
stationed at Findlay for three years, at
date several years prior to the gas
and oil discoveries. While there he
made careful study Of the geological
indications of the locality. About two
years since Mr.. Davies, then stationed
at Lima, came over and dilivered before
the people of Findlay popular scienti-
fic lecture, the title OF which was,
1.-THE World on Fire. In that lecture
he told them of the gas and oil beneath,
predicting that Findlay was to become
the center of q vast field of oil and gas
development. His theory was and is
that the gas there is result of certain
manufacturing processes of Nature, the
material for which being inexhaustible,
the manufacture is to go on indefinite
ly: hence that the supply must be last
ing. Mr.. Davies, who has not confined
his observations to Findlay, further
believes that in other localities where
gas has been found, and the supply has
subsequently failed, the conditions
mciO uiucIcue, uiuftcu supply ohiJ Va
the fluid having been stored in "pock-
ets' in the earth, which have become
exhausted and must remain SO for an
indefinite time. Where gas was stored
and the process of manufacture not yet
going on, it is because of exhaustion of
material, just as great volcanoes of his
tory have intermitted their operations
for centuries, or seemingly become ut
terly extinct. The prediction of Mr..
Davies as to Findlay has come literally
to pass; time alone can verify or dis
prove the correctness of his theory as to
supply.

FOURTH OF JULY IN THE CITY.

The fate of a poor fellow creature please pity.
o, rural sojourners, and heave him a sigh,
Ordained to abide In this tropical city
Through all the wild clamors OF Fourth of July;
For me shall no greensward or silvery river,
Or shadowy woodland enrapture the view,
But brick colored cracker instead shall deliver
Its endless and infamous rattat-tattoo!
How pleasant to know that until the day ceases
All round you are deeds being done to dismay;
Little boys rashiy blowing them mselves into pieces
Or fingers and eyes being squandered away;
How pleasant to dream OF the lake clear as crystal,
The mild hammered cow, or the rich petaed rose,
Then hear the bang. hang Of a patriot pistol
And smell Its detestable stencil at your nose
O, wesrisome lot, when for rest vaInly hunting
YouIl readily swear, while your weary head
aches,
That your national nag is q mere strip OF bunting
And Washington too, wasn't any great shakes"
When you re driven to think, in a mode far from
blandiy,
How certain fine fellows, whom death has made
Signed away with flourish, quite gravely and
grandly
The comfort Of whole generations to GOMEZ
Not 70 state my opinion in a style too despotic,
can't bat assert that I'd like to know what
One particular portion Of love patriotic
Is found In the language of powder and shot
or why, when young urchns, like new sorts OF
heroes
Would burn up the town with their horrible tricks
They imagine they honor those dead and gone heroes
Who fought for old flag in seventy
Nav, Joking aside-if by fate It was ordered
That once more earth this brave veteran band.
In their three cornered hats and their boots yellow
bordered,
Their cutaway coats and their perukes should
They would tell us, l fancy. Care less for your
pockets
And more for your country, her rulers. her veal;
Keep her Fourth Of July ess In crackers and rockets
And more In true loyalty. service and zeal"
