A Bad Scratch.

AS this is leap year the girls have
been advised to "look before they
leap" But here is a case of q man
who should have looked before be
scratched his hack:
"a railroad man named Beals, en-
ployed on the Baltimore & Ohio, near
Hyndman, Pa, was sent to q tool
house to bring some powder. The
can, covered with board, stood on
the floor close to the wall. Right
above the can, on little shelf on the
wall, o lot of matches were lying.
Beals entered the house, removed the
board from the can and then turned
round to scratch his back by rubbing
it against the wall. The motion jolt
ed some of the matches from the shelf
and they lodged between his back and
the wall. The same motion ignised
the matches. and when Beals straight
ened up they fell into the powder.
An explosion of course followed.
Beals was hurled through the door
and across the track, and be would
have fallen over the bluff had he not
succeeded in grasping one of the
rails"
Beals will likely turn around and
look before he scratches his back an
other time.

Daughter, if Not Mother.

Miss Mary Jamison, pretty Is
year old girl, whose home is near
Philadelphia, Clayton county, Ga,
departed day or two ago for Waco,
Tex, where she will become the wife
of Mr.. Simpson Mann, one Of the
wealthiest planters of that section.
This is the outcome of romance in
real life which needs no coloring. In
1868 Mann was one of the most pop
ular young farmers in the county. He
was engaged to be married to the
daughter of neighbor. whose hand
was sought by many others. The day
for the marriage was set and the
guests invited. Unfortunately for him
Mann espoused the cause of the Re-
publican party, which was in much
odium at the time. Not only did the
lady's father object to the marriage Of
his daughter with Republican, but
the young lady herself declared her
purpose never to wed one whose sym
pathies could be with the party in
power. When the wedding day came
it was rival. Henry Jamison, and
not Mann. who stood up IS the groom.
The rejected suitor sold out his pos
sessions and removed to Texas, where
he has grown rich, while the lady
who was to have been his bride has
become the mother of an interes ting
family, the eldest of whom is Miss
Mary.
A year ago Mann revisited the old
scene, still single and susceptible to
love. He saw in Mary the image of
her mother when he last saw her in
1869. He conceived the singular
idea of having his old sweetheart for
his mother-in-law. The daughter
consented, and the marriage was to
take place this week. A telegram
from Texas told of q serious accident
TO her lover, which prevented his
coming to Georgia and asked her to
90 there. The brave girl ct once de-
cided to go, and is now on her way.

The Time 10 Hate

I have friend-I mean, foe
Whom cordially l ought to hate;
But somehow ] can never seem
To lay the feud between us straight.
When apple boughs are full of bloom.
And Nature loves her fellow-men
With all the witchery of spring
How can you hate fellow then?
And then when summer comes, with days
Full of long and languid charm,
Wien even water-lilies sleep
On waves without thought of harm,
When underneath the shadiest trees
NV hammock hangs in idlest state,
/ were an idiot to get up
Out of that hammock just to hate.
Then harvest come. If mine is big,
am too happy with my store;
If small, is too much occupied
With grubbing round to make it more.
In dim recesses of my mind;
/ have no idle hour to spend.
In hunting up the bitter foe
Who simply ought to be my friend.
In winter? Well, in winter-ugh!-
Who would add hate to winds tina,
freeze?
All love and warmth that / can get
want in such dull days as these.
No, no, dear foe; it is no use;
The struggling year is at an end;
l cannot hate you if would,
And you must turn and be my friend.

LESSON BUTTER.

A little maid in the morning sun
Stood merrily singing and churning-
"Oh. how / wish this butter was done,
Then off to the fields I'd be turning''
So she hurried the dasher up and down,
Till the farmer called with half-made frown:
"Churn slowly"
'Don't ply the churn so fast, my dear,
1t is not good for the bu tier
And will make your arms ache, too, | fear,
And put you all in fiutter;
For this is a rule wherever we turn,
Don't be in haste whenever you churn-
Churn slo wly,
"Ifyou want your butter both nice and
sweet,
Don't churn with nervous jerking,
But ply the dasher slowly and neat,
You'll hardly know that you're working;
And when the butter has come you'll say,
Yes, surely, this is the better way
Churn slowly
Now, all you folks, do you think that you
A lesson can find in butter
Don't be in haste. whatever you do,
Or get yourself in fiutter;
And when you stand at Life's great churr
Let the farmers words to you return
"Churn Slowly"

Mr.. Dalzell arose and tried to mako
himself heard. At last he caught
Mr.. SCOTS eye and asked: "Does the
gentleman wish me to answer"
NO" shouted Mr.. Scott, ~ don't
want you to reply"
Mr.. Farquhar attempted to reply
to some of Mr.. Scott's statements,
but was met with: II won't listen to
you. You are q general interroga-
tor"
"How many workmen has this
gentleman from Pittsburg on his pay.

ed Mr.. Scott in highest falsetto voice.
"I'm not millionaire. calmly re-
sponded Mr.. Dalzell amid shouts from
the Republican side.
YOU'D like to be, but can't for lack
of brains to get there" squeaked the
employer of cheap labor st Scott Hs-
ven. This reply disgusted even the
Democrats. and there were cries Of
"Oh! no. Oh! no."
SCOTS WILD ASSERTIONS.
Mr.. Scott then said the price paid
labor for making q ton of steel rails
at the Edgar Thomson Steelworks
was 81 96. He asked whether Mr..
Dalzell denied this.
Mr.. Dalzell-Certainly.
Mr.. Scott-Then / say he states
what is not true.
Mr.. Scott was willing to abide by
the results of tho examination of
special committee which would go
out and examine his books and those
of the Edgar Thomson Steelworks.
Such an examination would show
that he was the friend of the lsboring
man and not an Andrew Carnegie.
"If I ever" hs continued, "have been
the oppressor of labor; if l ever eject.
ed a single lsborer from his home; il
L ever attempted to put one laborer
in the place of another; If ever en-
ployed detective to protect my pro.
perty against men working for me,
or who had ever worked for me; it
any or all of these things can be prov
ed against me. II resign my seat and
leave this hall"
"How about the coal and iron po-
lice?" asked Mr.. Brumm, of Pennsyl-
vania.
II never gave cent to them in my
life" answered Mr.. Scott, land defy
you to prove it."
II can prove it," shouted Air.
Brumm.
"Your statement is as false ss hell,
and I'll make you prove it," shouted
the now thoroughly-infuriated Mr..
Scott. "I'll have you brought before
the Bar of this House, sir, to prove
your Infamous charges. Whom l
start out to rob anybody, it shall not
be the money of the wage-worker l
take"
The gavel of the Chairman fell,
and the hottest debate of the sessi on
was closed.

Husbands Give Bonds.

1t is such an easy thing, says the
Philadelphia Times, for stranger to
get married in Louisiana. In the
first place, q license costs $3.50. and
before, ,the ceremony can be performed
the prospective bridegroom has to
give a bond and security to the
amount of 50, 500 for the proper main
tenance of his bride through married
life. Imagine the dilemma of the
man who arrives in the night, knows
nobody except the girl, and wants 70
get married at early candle-light aud
take the next train. He has got TO
20 out among strangers, who very
probably have all been apprised be-
forehand of the nature of bis mission
and are more or less jealous Of him,
and make q So, 500 bond before the
ceremony can proceed. This is pret-
ty hard, but everybody will agree
that it better than our Camden sys-
tenn as it is now being carried on.

They Disliked Dogs.

Alfred de Musset, the French poet.
cordially hated dogs. When can
didate for the Academy, he called
upon a prominent member, as custom
required. At the gate of the chateau
an ugly and dirty dog received him
most affectionately, and insisted on
preceding him into the drawing
room. The academicisn entered, and,
in due course, invited NJ. de Musset
to the dining.room, whittier they
went, with the dog at their heels.
Seeing bis opportunity, the animal
placed his muddy heels upon the
spotless cloth and stole choice bit OF
meat.
1.-THE wretch wants shooting" was
De Musset's muttered thought, but
he politely said:
"You are fond Of dogs see."
Fond of them," retorted the host,
~ hate them"
"But this animal here?" Queried
De Musset.

thought it yours."

thought that it was yours kept me
from killing it," :.

Mr.. Scott's temper was not shown
until he arose to reply to Mr.. Dalzell,
His face was white and his voice full
of tears. He claimed that Mr.. Dal.
zell was not representative of the
American people, but the attorney
for certain interests. BE said there
were 9 900 men at Scott Haven who
who were paid every three weeks in
cash more money in proportion than
the Edgar Thomson steelworks. He
claimed that he never hired foreign
labor in any of his mines and dared
the gentleman from Pittburg to deny
the statement.

European vessels, and crafts of every
sort anchored as we were and now
preparing for the storm.
A fine Portuguese merchantmen
lay between us and the sharp rocky
ledge of little island hard by, where
tall lighthouse stood like q silent
sentinel. The merchantmen was so
near indeed that her people on board
had listened to our music in the even
ing, and now we could scan her decks
and count her crew.
She seemed to have taken in pas.
sengers and cargo, intending to weigh
anchor with the morning tide. and be
off on her voyage to the. Mediterran-
can.
Her preparations for the coming
storm were made with more anima'
tion and ado than ours were. Long
after ev cry rope and screw were in place
on the Monocacy, agile seamen were
scaling the masts and rigging of the
Portuguese ship, clearing the decks
and shifting the cargo. We heard
the sailors csdenced voices, calling
"beave to!" and "pull my lads, to
gether!" and by the help of oul
glasses could see that the brave fel
lows, gay perhaps with the hope OF
the homeward voyage, made light oi
the coming storm.
1t was now six o'clock. The sky
had darkened to the color of umber
and the air was loaded with brine. A
suffocating brown mist by degrees
shut out the shipping, the island, ant
the lighthouse from our view. We
no longer saw the ships length, and
her breadth was lost in the mist
Finally we could not see each other
though we sat close to the mainmas

Beach & Bowers MInstrels.


Beach e. Bowers Ministries were
greeted with a crowded house last
evening. In Justice to the company
we will state that the show was first
class in every respect. The singing
was good, and several new features
introduced were encored until the
house fairly shook. The first part
does away with stale gags and gives
refreshing opening consisting Of
singing by the Starlight Quartette,
which is an exceptionally good one,
notably SO the singing of Mr.. James
Mclaughlin, who has bass voice
hard to beat. Bobby Beach in his
artistic dancing was immense, and
responded to four encores, while Otis
Bowers makes fun enough to keep
the audience in humor for week.
Hake, the contortionist, and Harry
r. Vokes in his Fun on the Quiet
are artists of superior ability. The
latter does some of his work quite
as well as the famous McNish. and
in the opinion Of some is even ahead
of that famous artist. Dick Rich
ards with his banjo and budget Of
songs was brought out Ave times in
response to the calls Of the audienc.
The entire performance was good
and the boys will play to a packed
house should they come here again,
