Some farmers are now sowing fall

Uncle Peter Selbe's friends are
reioiced to see him up again after
being confined to the house several
weeks.
Jasper Peterson started this week
for Frontier county Neb. on a pros
pecting tour
Mr.. Clark lost a nice colt one
night lately 1t became lame and
died in a few hours
There viii be no scarcity of feed
this winter In addition to the fine
hay that has been cut, many are pre-
pairing a gOOdly amount of the ex-
cellent corn fodder that IS so plent;-
full. There IS no better prOvender
for cattle than fodder cut in season.
If the eXcressence on humanity
who stole eight of our best hens will
call on US we Will be glad to give him
a cordial reception. We have, al
most, found out who he is. He IS,
probably, like the old darby whom
we read about lately. He had prayed
for the Lord to send him turkey for
a week, and the turkey had not come
Then he prayed to be sent after the
turkey and, said he: '.Dat Job was
finished befo' daylight" Now we
wish TO be understood when we say
we are praying to be able to use our
shot gun effectively. We can bear
to be defeated for Office; to be called
hard names, to have our hair come
out, until we are bald as a billiard
bal, and suffer calamity and loss of
crops, but when it comes to having
our Plymouth Rocks carried off bod
lily, we draw the line And, in draw
ing the line, we shall draw as good a
bead as we know how, and, if the
parties interested get their corporal
being filed full of No 4 shot, they
will have the satisfaction Of knowing
that they ''fOtched it on themselves"
The Republican convention did
itself proud by nominating the ticket
which it placed in the field last Sat
urday. With a man who is a true
representive Of the masses to head
the ticket, we feel that the man who
lends money while he curses money
lenders, viii be obliged to give up
the gun" The ticket is composed
wholly Of labOring men, and is one
worthy the support OF every fair
minded man. We do not believe it
could be improved upon, so up goes
our knob kyer'' for the whole ticket.

Mr. Nose Witham's oats deserve
especial mention; from late sowing

TIE New York EVENING PosT will
begin on the third of May to issue a
weekly edition, having for its principal
aim the promotion of Revenue Reform,
which has become the paramount issue
in national politics. The existence of
surplus in the Treasury estimated to
reach S140,000,000 on the 30th of June,
1883. and the further increase thereof
under the present laws. are a menace
to all business interests, and a direct
incentive to wastefulness and corrup-
tion IN the appropriation of public
money. The attention of the people
having been strongly drawn to this
subject by the President in his last an

and popular enlightenment on the
questions of revenue and taxation has
been increasingly felt in all parts OF
the country.

A coon COUNTRY FOR JAGUARs.

Let one travel on foot through the
most populous district in the United
States, and one would not see a single
house dog or eat where we saw three
jaguars along the Orinoco. There
was not one hour during daylight for
period of three months, writes n
member Of a party which recently cx-
plored that stream to the New York
Sun, that these creatures were not
around us, and most of the time were
In sight. Whenever we ran along
close to the banks we saw them crouch
ed down on nood-wood or moving
through the forest and whenever we
came to a sandy beach over which the
turtles crawled u jaguar could surely
be counted on for every half mile.
In the three months we killed upward
of 200 of these animals, and in almost
every instance saved the skin. In only
one case was any Of US in danger from
the cunning and fcrocious beast. The
steamer had been tied TO the bank
and we had been making excursions
from that spot for three or four days,
when one afternoon, when only one of
the young men had been left behind
at the fire on the bank, jaguar crcpt
up and sprang upon him. II was a
wonderful spring, ms we afterwards
discovered. From the spot where the
beast crouched TO the place where he
alighted on his victim was just twenty
six feet. The young man was kneel-
ing down and bending over speci-
men which he was examining, and the
jaguar fell on his back and seized him
by the right shoulder. The man
weighed about 15O pounds and was
muscular fellow, but the jaguar trotted
off with him as If he had been a shoul-
der of mutton, not lifting the body
entirely clear of the ground, but drag
ging 1t along. Fortunately for the
victim the forest was dense just there,
and the beast had to take one of the
several paths leading through it. lie
had not gone above 300 feet when he
met one of the party on his way back
to the boat. The jaguar sprang for a
limb ten feet above his head, still hold
ing to the man, and such was his mus
cular power that one of his forepaws
actually touched the limb. When he
dropped back it was to receive a bullet
in his head. In dying he inflicted sew
eral severe wounds ON the young man
with bis claws.

DR.. NJ. s. Craft.

The people of Jackson mourn the
death of prominent citizen, very
eminent physician and surgeon-a loss
to any community. These distinctions,
however, were not the cause of the I'M
usually large assemblage of people of
all classes to share in the sad ceremo-
nies of his burial. 1t may safely be
affirmed that If, when this free hearted
and kindly man became conscious of
the approach of death, he had been
asked what manifestation of regard he
would have preferred, he would hayc
answered, if he could have foreseen the
spectacle at his funeral, just such mani
festation as was then witnessed.
DR.. Crafts death is universally la
mented, not more because a great light
in medicine and surgery has disappear
ed, than because a most valuable.citizen,
a man who could always be relied on
for any friendly Office, who could be
thoroughly trusted, whose sympathies
were warm, whose temper was genial
as sunshine, has gone from us. The
value of man of this stamp cannot be
overestimated. In showing just ap-
probation of him the community hon
ors itself
While DIR. Craft spent the greater
portion of his life in the practice of
medicine at jackson, that brief period
spent upon the battlefield should not
be forgotten. In the earliest days of
the battles, and until the close of the
war, he was upon the blood-stained
fields Of Virginia, early taking the
medical charge of that historic Brigade
commanded in succession by Griffith,
Barksdale and Humphreys.
His papers on the surgery of Missis-
sippi justly rank with the best in the
land.
When first touched with the symp-
toms Of the terrible disease which
quickly carried him away, DIR. Craft
recognized the danger at once and
placed himself in the hands of the best
medical skill in this country, but
science was unavailing, and for some
months his death has been but a qucs-
ton of Observation-Disclosures.
DIR. Crafts death is mourned by
thousands beyond his home communi-
ty. No one knowing him could but be
acquainted with his exalted qualities of
head and heart which shone through
a genial, kindly nature, carrying cheer
and warmth to all. lie was one of n
noble band the surgeons Of the Mis-
sissippi regiments of the confederate
service. lie with others of those most
conspicuous, Holt, Boyd, Smell, Meares (;
have passed away, leaving loving mem
ories with those who suvive.

erroneous as to DIR. Crafts assign

was DIR. Gilmore of Columbus And

The Memphis bridge bill has after
many crosses and relapscs passed both
houses. As passed 1t provides for a
wagon-way; which is just little more
than the railroad folks bargained for.
But it is made condition absolute,
and the public are the gamers. That
this modification is effected is in great
measure due to Capt W. X. (Hustler)
Harvey; who met the misleading as
sertions as to its impractibilIty by p'ah
fishing facts and figures.
