First Man in the Race.

The first name which has come before :he
people of Abbeville county through the col.
umns Of the Press and Banner as Il candidate
for Office is that Of Captain h. Cowan for
school commissioner. 1t will be remembered
that Captain Cowan has filled that office for
one or two terms, and that he, upon going
into Office nearly or quite doubled the school
term. He did this by reducing the monthly
pay of teachers from $1,000 to 5000, and kept
the same teachers at soon to whom his pred
ecesSor had paid Si0.W. The Captain is fully
convinced that the school fund is intended
for the benefit Of the children, and not as a
bounty to the fortunate holders of teachers
certificates. He is also in favor of educating
the poor, ard of giving even the children of
persons who rent land Il chance for educa-
lion. No instance Is on record of his having
refused q school to children because OF their
poverty. He is Democratic in principle, and
will never allow the rich to appropriate more
than their fair share of the public money, nor
will he ever permit local trustees to deny Il
school to poor children merely because they
nre the children Of persons who rent land.
lie Will deal fairly with all the children, and,
in order that the people may be more greatly
benefited than ever before, he will again re-
tluce the present salaries OF teachers TO hg-
ure that will allow, even the children OF
those who rent land as much school priVl-
legeS as are now accorded to the children OF
the most favored school trustee. Captain
Cnwan Is a fair man, who deserves the votes
of the people. He was a faithful and efficient
officer

Unusual Proceeding.

Some time in January last McsSrs. Cunning

made an assignment of their partnership ana
individnnl property for the benGtit OF cre.il-

ham included every dollar OF his personal
property, not excepting the bed upon Whicll
he slept. Mr. Cunningham is widGwer, siN-
ty-four years OF age without immediate, faml-
ly, and is not. under the law, entitled TO any
homestead exemption, but at the meeting, OF
the creditors Of the assigned estate, we be-

Advice 10 Mothers and Fathers.

Iwould advise mothers to study the
laws Of their own being, read books upon
the subject of infants and how to take
care of them 0here are many excellent
works published upon this subject, ask
the advice of your physician insteaa of
your neighbors, and take proper care of
yourselves; instruct your daughters when
they arrive at proper age, and impress
upon their minds the responsibilities they
assume when marrying. Not alone do
we need to advise mothers, but fathers,
also. Your life and conduct have as
much to do with heredity as woman's,
even more so, for if you think you can
persist in drinking, ill-treating your wife
and disob, ying all physical and moral
laws you need never expect to be proud
of your sons and daughters. Your sins
in the past will often produce living
witness to testify against you and here
after. This is so much to be said on the
subject, but feel that if what / have
said will benefit and console just one
dear loving mothers heart will be con.

The Rull Suakn.

The bull-snake lives in holes in the
ground, in logs, rotten stumps, or any
other convenient lodging house he can
find. He is great climber, and has an
Unsuitable appetite for birls. In fact,
his ordinary diet is birds, if they are to
be had at all. The meadow lark, who
builds her nest in the punches of sage
brush and near the ground, finds her
greatest enemy in the bull-snake. Young
sters or eggs, no matter which, are alike
acceptable to the voracious appetite Of
this monster. As b fore remarked, this
species of the snake tribe is a wonderful
climber. Only day or two ago nine
foot fellow was caught climbing the trel-
lis of log cabin here at the fort, evident
ly on foraging expedition after some
swallows who had built their nests under
the caves of the building. When knocked
on the head this enterprising specimen of
his race was some seven or eight feet
from the ground, and just about to gob-
bic up a tender young swallow within
reach of his fangs. -Montana Letter.

Paper is about to revolutionizc another
branch of industry, which is no less a
one than the making of gentleman's
headgear. By new process OF manipu-
lation hats more serviceable and finer
than anything now on the market are
made of wood pulp. They are imper-
vious to water and not wanting in flcx-
ibility. 1t is believed that felt hats will
have to take back seat as soon as these
new hats can be placed in the mlrkct in
sufficient numbers to supply the demand.
They are certain to revolution;Ze the
hatter's trade, as they can be moulded
into any shape or style desired, AMI coll
ored TO meet the taste Of the public.
They can be made to represent a gloss
or nappy appearance.
