Webster

The Webster tract lying little to
the northwest of the city and at an
elevation Of two hundred and ten feet
above the river which sweeps around
| it on the south and west, is truly a
paradise. 1t is here where one can
gather beautiful bouquets in the early
spring time, and truly can say that
flowers have been gathered every
month in the year. The land slopes
gently towards the south and to the
| river. How much one enjoys the long
summer days out at Webster as one
pauses beneath the shade of some
shapely pine, Qor they are scattered
here and there), and takes casual
glance around him. The river two
hundred feet below on the south, here
flowing quiet and smooth with its
beautiful mirage Of the fieecy clouds
in the sky above; then, the channel
narrowing, flows on with ferceness
over low ragged and rocky channel
with such noisy splashing and DASH
ing which seems to say we cannot be
quiet again until we flow far out on
the bosom Of the mighty Pacific.
Just beyond and above the ever
changing and magnificent view of the
bluffs which range extends as far as
the eye can reach, far away to the
westward. TO the north and east the

towering here and there, the pure white
snow capped mountain peaks, and

The Game rs Il table fowl.


The game fowl is superior to all
other for the table. Being strictly a
thoroughbred fowl, it has been con.
S%equently bred true for more than a
hundred years, and AS it has been
used for the pit, the objects sought
by breeders to fit it for such purpos-
rs have been the cause Of its superb
GRITTY for the table. Hard, compact,
but light bone YVES required, and
therefore the offaI is %lessened. Strong
muscular developement became
prominent, and the bones were thus
heavily covered with flesh of a rich
juicy character, the thighs p%articu.
Iarly so, and the breast full. There
is an old pr0verb that the game pos
srsses more meat for its weight than
any other fowl, which is true. Those
who have used the cOarse-grained
fowls, no matter how fat they were,
will at once distinguish the flesh Of
game fowl if a comparison could be
made. The game grows slowly; but
they are solid and firm, for it seems
as if nature intends to pack every
ounce OF 1esn on uHpnl trtv the small
est space. For market they are per-
haps not as profitable as some other
kinds, but in places where the chick
an must supply the place Of the tur-
key, the game comes nearer to that
desideratum than aything else

The most contemplate, unjournal-
isiic thing We we have seen in a long
time il the treatment of squib in
in this paper last week. by that sour
rilous sheet, the Memphis Appeal,
We mads editorial mention Of Mrs,
Kells losing her position In the In
dustrial Institute and College as fol-
lows.
The Meridian News states that
because Mrs, H. B. K"Ils, saw TT Ia
criticise some act of Governor Low.
ry, she lost her position in the facul-
ty of the Industrial Institute and
College at Columbus, 1t il hard to
believe this but if ii il so, IT Ia the
littiest, meanest act we ever heard
charged to any official. 1t is a fact
she il no longer connected with the
college, but from what cause we have
never heard any reason advanced,
except the above"
The Appeal in its desire to belittle
Gov. Lowry changes the phraselogy
Of the article entirely. Here il the
revised version, aud credited as com
ing direct from the Enterprise:
The Meridian News states that be-
cause Mrs. Fl. B. Kells saw fit to crit
icise some act Of Gov, Lowry she
lost her position in the faculty OF
the industrial Institute aud college
at Columbus. 1t Is hard to believe
this but it is SO. 1t is the l~ittlest,
meanest act we ever heard charged
to an official. IT is a fact she is no
longer connected with the college but
from what cause we have never heard
any reason advanced except the
above.

has in plain, unvarnished English,

TALKING IN CHURCH.

Some people. either through
thoughtiessnes or wantonness, or
want of better training, or perhaps
want of better sense. will go to church
to do their talking. or big part OF
1t at least. To all such we wish to
say q few lines.
The house Of God was designed and
erected for His worship! for His hon
or. for His glory. 1t was never in
tended for a pleasure resort, for A
place of amusement, or for Il place OF
recreation. Therefore, people who will!
go there fortheir own selfish purposes,
with no thought of their duties to
society and their God, would much
better subserve the interest of all
concerned by staying away! To talk
in any audience, while the audience
is being addressed, is a very grave
and uncalled or insult to the speak
er. But to whisper and giggl" in the
House Of God on the Holy Sabbath
day, while Gods servant is deliver
ing His message, is a sin almost un-
pardonable. There certainly is no
earthly excuse for such II gross
breach of propriety 1t prevents
others from hearing, it humiliates
and emharrasses the preacher, and
finally it shows a want of proper re-
spect for the Great God who created
US and by whose sutferance we are
allowed to live. Therefore don't,
Don't make such a public display OF
your ll-breedlng; Of your wanton-
ness; of your impiousness.
