The States says "wheneyer there
is State election in the South and
the Democratic ticket is elected, the
Republican newspapers raise the howl
of intimidation. When Vermont and
New Hampshire, however, go Repub-
lican, nothing is said about it, and yet
those States are carried by the same
means as the States of tue South,
namely, the intimidation of the major

The anti-administratIon papers of
this State appear to be hard up for
material to harp upon. Under the
leadership of the Picayanethey are just
at present accusing Governor McEuery
of interfering in the Fifth Congress
sional District, and using his best eff
forts to have Gen. King defeated all
of which is bosh, as the Governor, like
a great many other sensible thinking
people, knows full well that it is only
a question of time when King will .fiz-
zle ont without any outside assistance.

Beer and Kidney Disease.

In the last quarterly report of the
Washingtonian Home at Boston, Mass.
DR.. Day, the superintendent, says ''that
of the one hundred and sixty-fve new
cases admitted thirty-four had delirium
tremens. The increase of patients each
year brings a larger number of cases of
diseases of the kidneys. Formerly not
over one in six cases which came under
treatment had disease of the kidneys.
Now, one in every three has this affec-
ton, which believe to be owing to the
great increase in the use of beer. Many
of these cases try to substitute beer for
stronger spirits, and in this way tax
the kidneys severely. Those who have
used beer for years always have dis
eased Kidneys l am also confident
that phases of insanity were more COM
mon in the cases which came for treat
ment during the last four years. My
experience sustains the views of DIR.
Crothers and others that inebriety is
increasing, and the insane types of in
ebriety are also increasing, This l be-
lieve is due in part to beer-drinking and
increased nervousness. Nothing can
be done, practically, until society rec
ognizes the physical nature of ine-
briefly; then its cure and prevention
may be expected"

Example and Precept.

A very fashionable wedding took
place recently in town not far from
Philadelphia The bride was the
daughter of a wealthy mill-owner, who.
employs about three thousand work
men. No money was spared to make
the occasion one of joy and festivity.
The mills were stopped, and the work
men formed lane through which the,
bride, groom and attendants walked
from the brides home to the church,
and as many of them as possible
crowded into the church to witness the
ceremony. There was one thing alb
sent that is considered almost es--
sential in these days on such occasions.

never allowed liquor to be sold in the
town, and said that he would not al
low it to be used on this occasisn-his,
example in his own home should
harmonic with his precept outside of
it. When the bride drove away, men,
women and children waved and wished
her all Joy. Christian Union.

Luminous Printing.

An Italian has. it is alleged, invented
luminous printing ink that renders it
possible for newspapers to be read in the
dark. What a luxury it will be, when
one is restless at night to take up a

into a somnolent condition, without the
trouble or danger attending other
lights! Luminous cards are not I'M

prised Mt some future time TO find him

DUDES GLASSES.

"Will you let me look at some of
those dudes glasses9" asked a re-
porter.
The obliging attendant drew out a
tray which had on it a number of diff

lar.'

now"
"Whv?'
Because certain English society
man who has been in this city has been
wearing them, and now there is a good
demand for them"

them adjusted to the sight?"
Hardly any. 1t seems to be simply
question of taste or preference"

would be offended at the wording of

glasses under the impression that it

''Do ladies ever wear them?"

to three young ladies living on Fifth

will wear them in public or not; but

THE THRUSH.

The thrush sings high on the topmost bough-
Low, louder. low again; and now
He has changed his tree-you know not how,
For you saw no fitting wing.
All the notes of the forest-throng,
Flute. reed and string, are in his song;
Never fear knows he, nor wrong,
Nor doubt of any thing.
Small room for care in that soft breast;
All weather that comes is to him the best
While he sees his mate close on her nest
And the woods are full of spring.
He has lost his last years love. / know
He. too-but It's little he keeps of woe;
For bird forgets in a year, and SO
No wonder the thrush can sing.

TRAINING FLEAS.
Circus Composed of Two Hundred In
telligent Little Insects.


telligent Little Insects.
A flea circus, composed of about two
hundred of the most distinguished and
intelligent fieas in the entire family,
was exhibited a few years ago.
Who first discovered that the flea was
susceptible to education and kind treat
ment is unknown; but the fact remains
that on their small heads there is a
thinking-cap capable of accomplishing
great results. In the selection of fleas
for training, however, the same care
must be taken as with human beings,
as the greatest difference is found in
them. Some are exceedingly apt
scholars, while others can never learn.
so it is that great numbers of fieas are
experimental with before troupe is
accepted.
One of the first lessons taught the
flea is to control its jumping powers,
for if its great leaps should be taken in
the middle of performance, there
would be sudden ending to the cir
Gus. To insure against such misfor-
tune, the student flea is first placed in
glass phial, and encouraged to lump
as much as possible. Every leap here
made brings the polished head of the
flea against the glass, hurting the in
sect back, and throwing 1T this way
and that, until, after a long and sorry
experience, and perhaps many head
aches, it makes up its mind never to
unfold its legs suddenly again. When
it has proved this by refusing to jump
in the open air, the first and most inn
portant lesson is complete. and it
joins the troupe, and is daily harnessed
and trained, until, finally. it is pro-
nounced ready to go on the stage or in
the ring C F. Holder, in 81. Nicholas.

us to believe that there Is no ques-

comes to us. shows that Nancy did
not tell half that is 10 be told of
that place. She tat.d positively
that Mr.. Nixon whipped a blind
woman, an inmate of the Iufirmary
without cause or reason.
There has been no denial of this
story. and it would be Interesting
to the people if the Directors would
state whether they:indorse such.work,
