" Safe At Rest"
TO MRS. MINNIE NASH.

Weep no more sad mother,
Shed no more those briny tears,
For your "Babe" is safe in Heaven,
From the long and weary years
Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe in the Saviour's breast,
Little Lizzie is safe from sorrow.
And her spirit is now at rest.
Safe from earth's tolls and SORROWS,
Safe from its daily snares,
Little hands so soft and dimpled,
viii never struggle with Hfe's cares
Those little feet so fair and tender,
Shall never tread ifes thorny way,
Little lips so pure and precious,
Sings Gods praises night and day.
Would you have her back, sad Mother,
Back to this pooc world of strife,
Back from the bliss of Heaven,
Back to sinful, mortal life y
Nay, she is safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe in the SaviOurs breast;
Your little Lizzie is safe in Heaven,
And her spirit is at rest

Foley, who ordered the Banner
Office closed August 3, 1865, and
a guard from Company K, 61st q.
3. Infantry, Capt. G. r. Riggs CON-
handing, was placed over the es-
adjustment. This order was soon
revoked, however, and the Banner
appeared on its regular publication
day.
During the many years Of our
journalistic life we have had many
discouraging things to contend with,
We had for while proscriptive
Radical Printing Law. Then hard
times set in which lessened the
amount of work for the paper and
made collections difficult. But we
have worked steadily on through
every adversely. Some days the
dark clouds of adversely have how
cred over Us, almost shutting out
the bright sun rays of hope for
success. Again bright sky spread
its blue arch above us and we took
courage and pressed on. Whatever
of success the Banner has attained,
is due to the indulgence, assistance
and liberal patronage of a generous
people and our own persistent eff.
forts to make it a paper worthy of
support. We have endeavored at
all times to make it a clean, pure
paper, fit for any home, studiously
emitting everything immoral, or
anything that would tend to corrupt
the public mind. Our position on
political and public questions are
well known to those who have been
reading after us. Our course shall
continue in future as it has been in
the past. We have devoted many
columns of our paper to talking
up our parish and State. We are
identified with and interested in the
welfare of our fellow.citizens and
we trust they will interest them
selves in us. The latch-string is
out at all times-come and see us.

STAGE STRUCK CANNES.
An Old Dog Trainer Tells Something
About Canine PeculiaritIes.

An Old Dog Trainer Tells Something
About Canine PeculiAritIes.
"Dogs are worse than boys for hanging
around circus" said Mr.. E. G. Cullen,
the manager of the dime show, yesterday.
The remark was Occasioned by the autics
of a small canine, which persisted IN try
ing to take part in the performance of
Prof. SamWelps trained dogs. The "Pro-
lessor" is an old trainer Of animals, and
has, in his time, broken in pretty much
every sort OF an animal found in meHag-
erie, from a Rocky Mountain bucking
brOnchO, to full-sized man-eating lion.
He comes of a family winch has been in
the business in this country and England
for many years, and they have their pro-
fession "down fine" to use a common ex-
preston.
fAfter the performance the professor got
TO talking about training the tour-footed
families. ''It is hard to teach an old dog
new tricks" he observed, sand the best
performing dogs, and in fact the best per-
formers Of every kind of animal, are the
ones that were taught young. Old dogs,
for instance, never get as proficient as the
puppies, and it is no use to waste time on
'em.
"Where do ! get my dogs? Oh. there is
never any trouble about that. We have
to drive lots OF 'em away, Just like
theatre manager mas to turn off young
girls and young fellows who get stage
struck. Dogs are just the same way.
They get stage struck, too, when they see
the trained dogs performing, Why they
Will follow a circus out OF town
for miles. In the old days
when railroads didn't run everywhere and
a circus had to hustle around over the
country on foot I've seen more dogs in
the procession that escorted us out of
town than ever / saw boys. 1t is more
trouble, too, TO keep them from slipping
in under the canvass than it is to keep the
boys out. We can always get our pick in
dogs from the ones which come to us, and
by their actions say they want to join
the company. That is the way l got
"Martinelli," my little brown Spaniel,
the dog clown. One day, when he was a
little puppy he jumped up on the plat
form among the dogs and tried to do
everything they did. Everybody noticed
the puppy, but they thoughth he was on the
bill, and they laughed and got the little
Spaniel so excited that he almost barked
his teeth loose. He made such bit that
! took him along with the rest, and as he
couldn't leap like the others l made a
clown out OF him, and he Is dead stuck on
his business"
