IRVING COLLEGE, April 2, 1885,
We too, had last week high waters,
but l have heard of no great damage.
OF course there was loss of few
rails and water-gates, but 1 have
known much greater losses. The
principal damage was the wetting of
the ground. Much soil has been
carried "from hill high to valley
low" but G. M. Rutledge says that
is a matter of little consequence so
far as he is concerned, as he can pillow
up plenty more soil just like that
which washed away.
The oat crop will be light in this
section in consequence of the freeze a
few weeks since. The oats which
were then sprouting were thinned
out by the freeze so that the stand is
not sufficient.
Complaining is in progress this
week.
The fruit is still safe, but if l say

Please Explain.

Louisville Courier-Journal.
Will somebody please tell us what
this means? Here are S450,643, 503
worth of foreign merchandise imported
in 1887, belonging to the category of
which the tariff barons and their Cos
pellerS are so dreadfully afraid that they
added to their cost at ports of entry
47.1O per cent of the said cost, before
permitting the ''wage-earners' to buy
and use them. Very useful articles
are those; clothes and clothing
for men and women, blank
cts, medicines. mechanical and farming
implements, and, in word, the very
classes of merchandise which people
are bound to have at any price. They
added to the cost of those 1850, 643, 500
worth of merchandise S214, 232, 309.65 be-
fore they could go into use, making the
cost that much higher in first hands on
this side-that is. S669,S75, S12.65, in
stead of $3.50, 643.5O3. Then the gospel
ers and barons tell us that addition of
S214, 232, 309.65 to the cost of the stuff
makes it cheaper to the people
who buy it, and also makes cheap
er the home product of the same
classes. And that is what we want eX-
planned by somebody. Why is it that
S2l4,UUO,UUO duueu W tie cOSG VI Ulle
goods, except to make it dearer to the
prices of American goods to the con-
sumers? And yet they keep on telling
us that the high tariff really makes
things cheaper. What fraud is it,
then, to be sure. Rise up, somebody,
and solve us this riddle: How does the
increase of the cost of things 47.10 per
cent make them cheaper to buyers, or
cheaper other articles of exactly the
same class?

but tie officers of the boat refused to
carry him. The Ben Hur arrived at the
Wheeling wharf about O'clock on the
morning of April 5, and as Willis
was lying asleep on pile OF
freight, his Winchester was taken
from him and secreted by some
of the deck hands, while others went in
search of the police. They returned
with Officers Shorts and Wilkie. One
of the deck hands led the way to the
spot where Willis lay, and, pointing
him out, said: THAT'S him." and at
once skipped out for the stearn Of the
steamer, where the rest of the crew had
gathered out of reach of the bull
lets they expected to hear soon
whistling through the air. Off
Ger Shorts stopped over Willis
and gently raised the edge of his
sultation with Wilkie resulted in the
latter suddenly throwing his arms
around the sleeper, pinioning his hands
to his sides, while Shorts simultaneous
ly grabbed a revolver which peeped
from his hip pocket. Thus rudely
awakened, Willis saw that resistance
would be useless, and surrendered.
On the way up town to the city hall
the murderer suddenly stopped, and,
putting one hand into the bosom of his
rough flannel shirt, pulled out bulldog
revolver and handed it over to the Off
GERS with the remark: ''You might as
well take this one, too" A search at
the city hall revealed two bone
handled hunting or clasp knives,
about pint of Winchester
and revolver cartridges, and S14
in money. He freely admitted killing

self-defense, as was also the shooting of
Thornton in the Jackson county woods.
Of the Point Pleasant tragedies he
would say nothing. He was brought
to this place by Wheel
ing officers two days after
his capture, and has since remained in
Jail awaiting trial for murder. His
pleading guilty to murder in the second
degree saved the court a long trial, and
he was sentenced to twenty years and
taken to Columbus, as has been stated.

WILL GO BLIND.
Over Indulgence in Gum as Hurt
full as Too Much Drink.

Philadelphia Record.
eff the girls only knew that their
eyes are being ruined by chewing gum
they would shrink from 1t as they would
from VIPER" said Chestnut street Op-
tician yesterday. "We all know to
what an extent this chewing gum is
carried on and what a nasty habit
it is. l would advise the girls
to- stop it at once. If they have
a big wad in their mouths while
reading this interview let them throw it
out and swear off, as the drinkers say,
for in one respect these dainty girls are
like drunkards. If they are chronic
gum-chewers they are heir to all the in
firmities that afflict the chronic whisky
drinkers. have three girls who were
addicted to the habit, but broke them
from it after great deal of persuasion
and some triflihg punishment. The
oldest girl has evidences of the habit,
though, and will carry them to her
grave"
''How are the eyes affected?"
swell, the muscles of the jaw connect
with the spine, and from the spine
there are little fibrous tissues running
in all directions. A number of these
extend to the eyes, and are called the
optic nerves. Now, if you will watch a
person eating you will notice palpita-
ton of the temples when the lower jaw
moves up and down in the process of
mastication. This is caused by the
working of the optic nerves, which keep
the inner part of the eyes in motion and
exercise the nerves as much as is need
ed to keep them in a healthy condi-
ton. These nerves are more tender and
sensitive to degree than one would
imagine. When they are OverwOrked
they become shrunken and enfeebled,
and then the process of deterioration
III the eyeSight begins. Of course, the
shrinking of the nerve draws the eye
back into the socket, and as it is con-
nected by slender threads of tissue to
the pupil of the eye this also becomes
affected. The consequence is that the
eve becomes weak and loses its color;
it becomes an mountaineering gray,
and the vision is so much impaired by
it that eyeglasses must be resOrted to.
"One of my girls wears glasses Just
because she cheWed SO much gum. Her
eyeslght is practically ruined, and she
has crow-feet wrinkles about the outer
corners that were caused by the flesh
of the cheek being forced upward by
the action of the jaw. She is also
troubled with indigestion from the same
cause. These are all symptoms eXhib-
tied by a person who drinks whisky
beautifully, and hence the comparison.
Parents ought to take this matter in
hand and see if they cannot rid their
girls of the habit. 1t is filthy one out
side the terrible effect it has upon the
human system. If the parents keep
from their girls some of their little per-
quisites until they stop chewing. gum
they would soon give up the habit"

Smoking and Throat Diseases.

Manchester Examiner.
Smokers are not easily frightened.
They have been warned so frequently
of the perniciOuS consequences of the
filthy habit" in which they indulge
of the paralysis, premature decay and
early death which result from excessive
smoking-that they have grown a little
hardened and smoke stOlidly on, grimly
awaiting their fate. 1t is hardly likely,
therefore, that they will be very
seriously affected by the letter of
"Medicus" which appeared in yester-
days Times and is dated from Middle
sex hospital. In that letter we are in
formed that there has been latterly a
great increase of malignant throat dis
eases, almost exclusively confined to
males. This set the doctors on the track
of the tobacco and induced them to &C
cept the theory that smoking was in
most cases the cause of the ailment.
Smokers will perhaps breathe little
more freely when they find that the
chief suspicious of "Medicus" rest
upon certain cigarettes imported from
Turkey and Egypt, which he believes
are made attractive by mixture of
opium and an unclassified alkaloid
which the writer detects in them. SuS-
piciOn is, of course, not proof. But to
be forewarned is to be forearmed, and
smokers who suffer from throat troubles
may do well to bear these statements in
mind. The genuine smoker is no bigOt,
and though he may have his fayOrite
vanity he would sooner smoke any,
thing-black Shag, cavendiSh, or the
finest Turkey-than smoke nothing at
