The Typical Small Boy.
Binghampton Republican.

Binghampton Republican.
One day sat in a car seat on the
Saugus branch of the Eastern road,
behind a pale, careworn lady who
was taking a little boy from Boston
to Maiden. AS the little boy was of
an inquiring turn of mind, everything
seemed to attract his attention, l
could not help listening to some of
his questions.
"What is that, aunty?" the little
boy commenced, pointing to a stack
of hay in the marsh.
sob, that's hay, my DEAR" answer
ed the careworn lady.
"What is hay, aunty%
"Why, hay is hay, dear"
"But what is hay made Off"
"Why, hay is made OF dirt and
water and air."
"Who makes it?"
"God makes it, dear"
"Does he make it in the day time
or in the night?"
Sin both, dear"
"And Sundays"
Eyes, all the time"
"Ain't it wicked to make hay on
Sunday, auntie?"
"Oh, don't know. I'd keep STILL
Willie; that's dear. Auntie is tired
After remaining quiet moment
little Willie broke out:
"Where do the stars come from
Auntie?"
81 don't know; nobody knows"
"Did the moon lay 'em~
eyes, I guess so,' replied the wick
ed lady.
"Can the moon lay eggs, too?"
81 suppose so. Don't bother me-
Another short silence, when Willie
broke out:
Benny says oxins is an owl, aun
tie; is they"
"Oh, yes, ! guess So" said thu
shameless woman.
81 think whale could lay eggs
don't you, aunty?"
"Oh, perhaps So"
"Did you ever see a whale on hi
nest?"
sob, l guess So"
"Where"
81 mean no. Willie you must b.
quiet; | am getting crazy"
"What makes you crazy, auntie.
sob, dear, you ask so many ques
tions."
"Did you ever see little fly ca
sugar?"
eyes, dear"
"Where?"
"Willie, sit down on the seat ant
be still, Or I'll shake you. Now, NO
another word"
And the lady pointed her tinge
sharply at the little boy, as if sh
were going to stick it through hin
If she had not been woman sh
would have sworn.
There are eight million little boy
like Willie in the United States, an
halfas many in England.

and from New Zealand coming here. He
is . man Of wide information, and he
seemed like an anachronism in this Tree
and easy California life. for he adheres
to the Calvinism in which he was bred.
An example of the rigid insistence upon
his creed was furnished last summer
when Baldwin had . party OF friends at
the ranch. The supply Of meat ran out
and the millionaire sent over to old Cam
eron TO slaughter four sheep. The an
swer was returned In broad Scotch !:
There will be M killing of the sheep on
the Saw bath, )" aod Baldwin had to send to
town for his meat.
Baldwin is engaged in splitting up .
portion of the ranch into small tracts OF
from twenty acres upward and selling
them to Los Angeles people for summer
villas and 10 Eastern people Who wish
winter home in one of the most beautiful
valleys OF southern California. A rail-
road will be completed through the ranch
this fall, and then one may reach the city
of Los Angeles in fifteen minutes. The
only drawback to rapid settlement of the
ranch is the price charged for the land.
With perpetual water right, $3.50 per acre
is asked for unimproved land. The ma
jority of those who buy this land will be
wealthy people, who can afford to spend
from SIC. 900 to $50. 900 in laying out and
improving q place.

TERENCE VINCENT POWDERLY,
HEAD OF THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.


Terence Vincent Powderly, head of the
Knights of Labor, is leader of extra
ordinary sagacity and strength. Speak
ing Of himself and his work Mr..
Powderly said in recent interview:
81 was born in Carbonate, Penn, In
January, ls49. Of Irish parents. My
father was day laborer. was sent to
school at seven years OF age, and
continued at school until l was about
thirteen, when / went to work for the

having the care of switch on one Of
their railroad branches. I worked at
this for several years, when / was en-
ployed in the machine shops Of the
company.
In 1870 was invited by friend to
walk with him, and he took me to a
meeting OF the Knights Of Labor. I
Joined that night.
In 1876 we organized q district
assembly Of five or six assemblies in
Lackawanna county, and / was elected
district secretary, an Office which have
held ever since from choice. In 1877,
when the strikes on the railroads swept
over the country, many Of our men, with
others not Knights Of Labor, numbering
in all about five thousand, were dis
charged and went West, settling in the
Western States and Territories. Wher-
ever our Knights went new assemblies
sprang up. Up to that time there had
been no national head to the Knights Of
Labor. The first general assembly Of
the Knights Of Labor was held at Read
ing. Penn, in January, 1878.
"Mr. Uriah Stephens. Of Philadelphia,
was elected the first Grand Master Work
man, and was elected to the next Office,
which was called Grand Worthy Fore
man. We then changed the date Of
meeting from January to September.
We next met In St. Louis. Mr.. Stephens
did not attend this convention, but
wrote a letter, recommending me for
Grand Master Workman. In April,
1878, was elected Mayor Of Scranton.
After that gave my entire time to the
work OF my Office, this being the first
time that had worked at any business
other than my trade.
~ was reelected Mayor two or three
times. In 1884, the Knights Of Labor
had grown 80 large that the business Of
the order took all my time. SO l had
to decline the denomination for Mayor.

Obituary.
The Minneapolis (Kan., Messenger, Aug. s.

The Minneapolis (Kan1 Messenger, Aug. 8.
Franklin F. Fowler died at his home
in Minneapolis, Ottawa county, Kan
sas. July 21st, 1886, after an illness of
about two weeks, of inhamation of the
kidneys turning to blood poisoning.
He suffered extreme pain during his
entire illness though he died without
struggle, and apparently without pain.
He welcomed the grim master death
sent as kind messenger to transport
him from this imperfect, to that all
perfect life above.
Frequently during his illness he told
his friends that his sutferings would
soon be over, and he would be freed
from the cares and anAieties which are
so prevalent to this life.
He called his wife and friends sever
ally to his bedside and requested them
not to weep for him and said he was
just ready to step over on the other
side and meet the loved ones who were
beckoning him there. He left mes
sage for all his distant friends which
was emphatlcally to become reconciled
to God, and prepare for the great change
that so soon awaited him.
Mr.. Fowler was a man who possessed
an unusually cheerful disposition, al
though himself and wife were sorely
afflicted, he trusted all into the hands
OF the Savior, seeming to realize that
"these light affections of the body only
work out for us far more exceeding
and eternal weight of glory"
The funeral services were held at his
residence, July 22d, at half past ten
o'clock, in this city, conducted by Rev.
A. b. Conwell, and were attended by a
large concourse of friends and relatives,
the funeral procession being an unusu-
ally large one.
In November, 1886, he was happily
converted and united with the NJ. E.
church, and has ever since maintained
the faith which characterized him as a
devoted husband and father connecting
the earthly home with the heavenly.
He was boru in Wyandotte, Ohio
January 14th, iS43; he was the son of
Zuriel and Elizabeth Fowler.
He was married to Jennie Leonard
October 18th, 1873, with whom he had
been associated from childhood. Five
years of their married life was spent in
johnson county, La. From there they
moved to Cherokee county, and in Aug
1884, they came to Minneapolis, where
they lived up to the date OF his death
sharing the joys and sorrows of life to
gether.
Three years ago in June, he lost hi
sight and although totally blind he wa!
very energetic in sustaining himsel
! and family.
, Two years ago they were called t,
mourn the loss of their only son, Algie
| age years, who died in Aurelia, Cher
okee county, Iowa.
| He leaves wife and one daughter t
Q mourn his loss, also an only sister an,
f four brothers who were not permitte
to be with him in his last illness. Ma
f they follow his example and be pre-
t pared to meet him in that celestial cit,
: where parting never comes. Mr.. Fow
ler leaves host of friends who wi
deeply deplore his death. His famil
have the sympathy of the entire con
munity in this their sad bereavement.

Does This Hit You?

We often wonder if some of the sub
scribers to the Herald have not got
tired of reading the little items which
occasionally appear reminding them of
the fact that their subscription it past
due and that the money is very much
needed by the proprietor to pay his
debts. This year has been glorious
one for Turner county; the crops are of
the best, and the markets open with a
good price for all products, and that
the proprietor OF this paper may rejoice
with you, try and spare enough from
the noxt load of grain to settle that lit
tle-nnt aiways-balance. and pay the
next year in advance.
