reenly enjoying the cool air and delighting
n the handsome prospect laid out before
Them. Most of the girls had 10 interest in
the scenery. They had come there to have
some fun, and in pure spirit of deviltry
were looking for chance to meet some
'feller'' who'd set up the ice cream or lem
Onade, or, in some cases, the foaming beer.
a crowd OF young men were following the
girls around. making all sorts of silly
speeches to attract attention. The foolish
maid would smoker. and, drawing her
companion along. pretend to increase her
pace, but, bless her, it was only blind.
The boys who were on their track knew
this, and were encouraged to be holder.
The two dudes aforesaid, who lost no time
in taking view of the numerous thrOng
of femininity. soon cast their eyes on
couple of misses who suited them, and they
at once set their net to capture them. One
of the dears had on black jersey and a
white dress, and the other looked
her best i'll an attire almost identi-
cal to that of her companion, except in
the color of the jersey, which was blue.
Each carried green paraSol and wore
jaunty, home trimmed hats. which came
down over their faces like that of har-
vester. AS it afterward appeared, the pair
were trying to pass off as sisters, although
one was a blone and the other not of any
clearly defined type. Both were rather
pretty. Finally the girls parted company
for a moment, and then the dudes took the
opportunity to get acquainted. They had
been pursuing the senoritas for half an
hour, but for certain little signs of recogni-
ton. such as backward glances and the
profuse use of the pocket handkerchief
when the pretty creatures noses did not re-
quire it, the brave youths refused to give
up the chase.
Charley and Gus each chose his partner,
the former bowling to the blonde and the
latter accosting her of the nut-brown hair
Both were adopts at the business, and their

word: Excuse me, miss. but do you want

Washington Capital.
During the terrific thunder storm that
came over the city last week little eight
year-old boy living in the northern part of
the town was awakened and called his
mother, who was sitting in the drawing
room downstairs. She sat with him awhile
and told him he need have no fear, because
God took care of little boys and would not
let the lightning hurt them.
But God is away up in heaven" said
the child.
Yes" replied the mother, shut he is
here, too. He is staying right in the room
with you. He cannot protect you, but
cannot. AS long as God is here you need
not be afraid"
The child was quieted and the mother left
him and went back to the drawing-room.
Pretty soon there came another deafening
clap of thunder. when the boy, crawling
out of bed, came to the head of the Stairs
and called again: ...
What do you want. George?" asked his
mother. ~" p2h Gym
You come up here and stay with God
awhile and let me 90 down stairs" was the
reply. =.

AN IRREPREssIBLE INFANT.

An enfant terrible was travelling to Bos-

car and in company with his fond mamma
and number of other people bound in the
same direction. After scanning the scene
for some time his eagle eye lighted on ain
engaging pictorial advertisement just above
his head. 1t represented, let us say, the
luscious female form encompassed by a
marvellous pair of corsets, and the legend
written beneath that purchasers of the same
could return the article after fifteen days
trial if not perfectly satisfactory Finally,
in the silence of the car, rose the piping
voice of this terrible child: ''Say, mamma,

MAKING

In several of the Northwestern states,
agricultural colleges, or departments of
colleges, have passed the time of severest
trial, and have gained an assured posi-
ton among the agencies that are deemed
essential to the development of the local
In every such case it will be
found that the colleges have had to Gre
ate the sentiment that now operates for
their support and progress. This has
been done through thebersistent efforts
of men who joined to scientific knowl-
edge practical experience Mn farming,
and through cooperation with state
boards of agriculture and other associa-
tons, which brought the schools into in
innate relations with the farming popu-
lation. In Kansas, farmers Institutes
held under the auspices Of the agricul-
tural college, have proved of great adj
vantage.-Farm and Freside.
Perhaps the gentlemen who are
engineering u agricultural col
lege" at Chapel Hill have had to
"create public sentiment" which
may account, in part at least, for the
slow progress they have made in the
work which they have SO much at
heart. 1t is true, this work of "cre-
ating public sentiment" has been
somewhat expensive, having cost up
to date the sum Of $4,000, but we
must not be altogether discouraged.
They have made some progress if not
a great deal. They have after eleven
years and the annual expenditure of
$500, (money belonging to the far
mers and mechanics of the State)
got along so far as to give the Gag
ricultural college" a place in the
Catalogue of the University. Per
haps in the next eleven years, if we
have patience, they may succeed in
introducing a little agricultural and
mechanical instruction" into it. It
is true, every year makes a fresh
draw of $500, and in eleven years
more the total would be 900,
without calculating interest, which
would accrue if this $500 a year
were invested in government bonds
as Virginia did, Or in State bonds, as
Georgia did. But we must not ex-
pect too much all at once. We have
an agricultural college" in the I'm
iversity Catalogue. Perhaps in the
course of human events, under the
present conservative management,
we may possibly have an agriculture
al college that somebody a recog-
nize outside of the catalogue. We
are Of a somewhat sanguine temper
ament and live in hope.

A BOY HERO.

A writer in the Chatham Home,
describing a retreat Of the~command
to which doing picket
duty on the left of Gen. Bragg's
army, near Spring Hill, Tenn, in
the summer of 1868, closes with the
following reference to a cavalry fight
and the gallant conduct of a heroic
but unknown boy:
awe crossed Duck River and
halted for rest and food, feeling per-
fectly secure. But a large force Of
cavalry had been sent out from the
enemy's forces in front ofTullahoma.
This force was upon our pickets in
the direction of Shelbyville, almost
before we knew it. Such a cavalry
fight as followed I seldom, or never
witnessed. For a short time men
fell like hail. Artillery and caisons
were knockd sky-ward, officers and
men We'd with each other in deeds
of daring. One especial case deserves
mention. Accompanying Gen. For
est was a little boy, scarcely II
years old who was serving as a
courier. This little boy had, a day
or two before, dropped into a Ten
nessee battalion, commanded by a
major. Shortly after the fight began
the major was killed in a charge
and the command r~etreated in con-
fusion. But this little boy rallied
the battalion and led them three
times in a charge upon the enemy's
lines, but without dislodging them.
Heroic boy! [ shall never forget
the scene of little midget, scarcely
large enough to guide a horse, lead
ing a battalion of brave and daunt-
less men right up to enemy's ranks!
He came out unscathed. But the
valiant little fellow was, as we heard,
afterwards captured by the enemy,
and shot as a spy" aE #oa

thanks for a fine and handsomely finished
tireman's trumpet; also, to the La France

for a very fine and heavily nickled fire

Both of the above fire engine comph-
mics are well known throughout our cou4-

work are highly priced. 1t is but right
to say that if all the work turned out by
them is as good as hat with which We
have been presented, no one purchasing
anything in their line from them need
have any fear of receiving any otherthan
that which is well made.
To our citizens we return thanks for
their kind support and the liberality dis
played by them in our recent effort TO
raise funds for the improvement of our
organization.
Assuring all that we will endeavor ito
do our full duty whenever our services
are required, and feeling grateful for
gifts received, we remain,
