Indpa Hova,aI.antnra

Judge Howe delivered lecture Sun
day evening, at the Presbyterian
church, to a gUod-sized and apprecia-
tive audience. His subjet was: The
DUTY cf Christians Toward the Prohi-
bitiOn Law The Judge discussed his
subject in manner which showed that
it WIS one upon which he was well
posted, from personal experience as
well as otherwise. lie is squarely in
favor of the enforcement of the liquor
law, is sure that it has not been en-
forced, and believes people should be
educated up by prohibitionists and
Christian workers to see the ruinous
results of the present state Of affairs
and the necessity of enforcing the pro-
hIbitOry law. He also thinks that the
women should lend more Of helping
hand. He believes that the peace Of
ficers should come nearer doing their
duty, but believes the county attorney
powerless TO enforce that law until we
have class of citizens who are not
afraid to make complaint; jurors who
will render just verdicts, and witnesses
who will swear TO the truth. Ills opln-
ion is that the work and influence of
Christians shall be the power that shall
bring about change in this matter.
He said in conclusion, that he. as coun-
ty attorney. had received more COM
plants of illegal liquor selling, since
his lecture was announced, than during
his entire term of office.

About Your Taxes

The county treasurer has the tax rolls
in his possession, and will extend q
most hearty welcome to all who desire
to pay their taxes. He requests. as a
matter of convenience, that everyone
prepare list and description of the
lands on which they desire to pay tax
es. and present the list at the time they
make payment. He also desires that
every one be posted on the question of
penalties. and to the end that no one
may plead ignorance, he wants these
facts remembered: All persons paying
their full tax on or before the 10Th day
of December, will be allowed rebate
of five per cent. on the one-half. Those
paying half OH or before the Goth day of
December, can have until the Goth day
of June following, for the last half,
without penalty. If one-haIf, or all Of
personal property tax is not paid on or
before December Goth, tax warrants
will be placed in the hands of the sher-
if for the full amount.
This is plain enough for anybody to
understand. So, don't plead ignorance
after this publication.

Big Diamonds and Poor Luck.

A leading London jeweler, in talking
with Pail Mall Gazette reporter, re-
marked "A big diamond always
brings bad luck. / would not hold
one, except in the way of trade, on any
terms. If man comes to me with a
diamond worth f100, 000-asa matter of
fact there are few diamonds of that
value-I should proceed in this man.
ner: 1 should look at the stone, weigh
it, test it, and having satisfied myself
of its valne, should hand it to the
vender and ask him to seal it up.
Why? So that he might not show it
to any one else. 1 should then ask
him to call in forty-eight hours for a
reply, and call some friends together,
and should say: Here is diamond
in the market worth 100000; what
will you take? and we should form q
syndicate, buy the stone, and, holding
it for a time, ultimately cut it and sell
it in small portions"

Indian SuperstitiOn.

The Indians believe that thunder is a
huge bird, with green back and gray
breast, and that the tapping of his
wings causes the thunder (some faint
resemblance to the NEUROLOGICAL birds
of Jove who carried the thunder in their
claws. They imagine that the heavens
are supported by four large poles, re-
sembling large trees; that the big bird
lives in the west andi is only heard when
flying east. This is easily accounted for
by the fact of their storms almost in
variably coming from the west. They
have superstitious fear of the aurora
borealis, which they call the medicine
fire." They believe that it has the
power of rendering them good shots
Gan idea arising, imagine, from the
manner in which the rays of light in an
aurora dart about in the heavens), and
consequently worship it. OF meteors
and falling stars they have q great
dread; they believe that they are sent
by the great warriors who are in the
happy hunting grounds, to warn them
of danger.-Queer, quaint, and Quiz

Electricity i'm Engraving.

In new engraving maching
Lieut.. b. Carter, of London, has made
an interesting application Of electricity.
The machine is chiefly intended for de-
corative work upon metals, and rapidly
produces high-finished results. The
words or designs to be engraved are
first furnished by setting of ornamen-
tai types or stereotype plate. A fine
platinum point traverses this, its motion
being responded to by table carrying
the metal to be engraved under the
point of the graver. As the platinum
point is raised or let down by the de-
sign an electric current, acting upon an
electromagnetic, produces correspond
ing movement of the graver, which is
thus made to accurately cut in the
metal an enlarged or reduced copy of
the types
