10th, which was well attended, and the DR.
made very interesting talk-all good, SCUM,
! Alliance doctrine and was cheering to thos
who belong to the organization. T he +.
at that place is prospecting.
The church ut Campground that was shor
on preachers Gas T. G. informed you) called
the Rev. c. I. Fortune to the care of the
church. This makes years for him. He
received 40 votes, being all that was cast.
this is not encouraging to Mr.. F. it should
be, having been serving the people years
and not one against him. There were two
| accessions to the church ON Sunday and one
baptized.
The county f. A. in Reynolds county meets
at Centreville 4th of July, and the citizens OF
that place intend to have picnic in connec-
ton with the county meeting, and a fine time
is expected. The people of Centreville will
| do all they can to make the occasion an en-
joyable one.
| Miss SalIie Hartman will teach school in
the Webb district, four miles west O; Black,
Reynolds county, Mo.
Mr.. g. w. Hawkins is a candidate for
sheriff of Reynolds county, and, if elected,
will make good one. We wish him success,
as he is one of Reynolds county's best farm
ers. If part of lion county could go down
they would give Mr.. III. little lift.
The Belleview High School will close Fri
day. An exhibition will be given at the
close. The school has been a success
throughout, and am informed that Prof.
Scott will hold forth in our town again this
year. Miss Hattie Brown will teach the
urinary 1anartfnopt ho T
hope the school will be a success again.
Mr.. E. W. Mathews returned from the city
where has been for time. He will soon
go back again.
Miss Emma Paullus, who has been attend
ing the high school at this place, will return
to her home near Cold Water, Wayne coun-
ty, next Saturday.
The institute to be held at this place is to
commence the 18th of June, and we hope to
see good attendance of teachers. Every
teacher should attend so as to make them
more familiar with the work before them,
and then there will not be so many failures
in school teaching. There are plenty of per-
sons qualified to teach who make failures,
simply because they haven't the governing
power and don't understand managing their
schools. so would say to those just start !
ing out in the pedagogue business, come to
Beleview Institute at X Roads four weeks, |
and there school management will be taught |
and all young teachers that have had but |
little experience will gain valuable informa-
ton.
A petition is being circulated oyer our
valley to try to get more money appropr
ated on our roads, and, Mr.. Editor, it needs
it badly-1f you ever travelled them in winter
time you would say so. The road that has
been impas sible, aud that so many didn't
know was county road, has been made all
k.-I mean the road running between
Mrs. Mathews farm and Mrs. Buford's,
north and south. Mr.. l.. G. Ruddock, our
'oad supervisor, makes some good roads
where he goes.

From BeIlevlew.

Ed. Regaster-We have had plenty of rain
at last and vegetation of all kinds is growing
very fast; but it was too late TO help wheat.
The wheat crop will be almost failure in
this section of country. The chinch- bugs,
cut worms and other insects are doing their
work, and they seem to be putting in full
time from the way they get away with cab
bage, potatoes and other vines and plants.
Farmers are very busy blowing their corn.
1t is small vet; there has not been quite
enough hot weather to make il grow lively.
Married, Mr.. John Bess to Miss Lizzie
Ellis. M. Bess resides in Wayne county,
and Miss Ellis was one of Belleview's fair
ones. They were married May Goth in
Wayne county and have been spending few
days in our city. May they live long and
their future be as happy as their present.
am reliably informed that G. W. Buford
will teach school on Ottery Fork of Black
river this fall.

When we sent forth our article on the
modern st. Paul and Lucinda, his wife, we
did not expect so much glory as "X" gives
us this week. We feel quite refreshed. ''His
majesty, )" ''his highness'-you do US honor
overmuch! We were simply undergoing
conversion, and, like all new converts, were
making ourselves as numerous as possible,
Growing to herald the dawn of new ideas.
We intended malice toward none, but find,
dear Mrs. Lucinda "X," that, manlike, we
blundered. 1t demonstrates that "Many a
shaft at random sent, hits mark the archer
little meant" We did not aim at you: so,
please accept our apology for the blow, and
we will "sin no more"
Now Lucinda, dear, please permit us
word, and allow us to say that for many
years we were governed by the old fashioned |
Ideas of our ancestors. We admired the
gentle feminine qualities of Ruth. We low
ed to see neat housewife; a home well |
kept, tidy, sweet as the honeysuckle IN full |
bloom; wife who met her husband |
when he returned from daily toll with
cheerful smile, and invited him to a chair by
the Jingle side," where the evening would
be passed discussing the joys and sorrows of
l1fe's pathway.
Or late we have undergone conversion,
and now see much to admire in those women
whose "feet abide not at home" In the eX-
cess of enthusiasm we spurned st. Paul and
bis teachings. We note the paragraph you
refer US to in Paul's writing-Eph. 5, %
and advise you to ignore those sentences
lust preceding. Cut them out and "burn
them." You dub us wlseacre for calling st.
Paul bachelor. You may be correct IT
we were now single after your lecture, and
after hearing the Hoffmans and the Cairnses,
We would eXcaim in the language of st.
Paul 81 say therefore to the unmarried and
Widows, it is good for them if they abide
even as l."

A Simulated Suicide.

An exciting scene was witnessed by
the people who were walking along
the guays in the neighborhood OF the
Pont de rAlma in Paris the other after
noon. just as the crowd was at it's
thickest poor man suddenly jumped on
the parapet of the bridge and threw
himself over into the Seine. As he was
struggling in the water another man
jumped into the river after him, and
succeeded in bringing him safe to the
shore. The spectators of this thrilling
incident clustered round the poor fellow
and his gallant preserver and asked him
why he had taken 80 rash step. Want,
he said, had driven him to suicide.
Moved to tears by the affecting nara.
tive, the man to whom this victim OF
circumstances over which he had no
control, owed his lite, put his hand into
his pocket, and, producing all the cash
which he had about him, presented IL to
the sufferer. Inspired by this bright
example the crowd, which had mustered
in force, pressed silver and copper coins
on the poverty stricken individual who
had sought watery grave. Soon very
fair sum of money was in his possession,
and, with many pr0testations OF graft
tude and promises that he would en-
deavored in future to take the ''ups and
downs" OF life more philosophically, he
slowly quilted the spot in company with
the man who had SO calamity res.
cued him. Now, it so happened
that police inspector had
found his way among the throng. and
having less confidence in human nature
than the worthy holiday makers who
had been pouring francs and half'francs
into the pockets OF the would-be suicide,
betbought himself of keeping an eye on
the couple. The pair walked on until
they reached a public house outside the
beaten track, and into this place Of
refreshments the inspector followed
them. oddly enough, their arrival ap.
peared to be expected with some I'M
patience, for quite an assemblage OF
their friends greeted them with en-
thusiasm. Drinks were ordered by the
poor man who had just been fished out
Of the Seine, and as they we're being
discussed he gave the company graphic
J account nf his adventure: but the story
was very different one from that which
the horror stricken spectators OF the
thrilling incident would have related.
| Instead OF eliciting ordinations OF
sympathy and congratulations, ii was
received with peals of laughter, in
which. strange to say, the rescued man
and his gallant preserver joined heartily.
The whole thing had been gotten up be.
tween them. One man threw himself
into the river TO attract the attention Of
the crowd; the other followed, and the
tale of suicide was trumped up. The
accomplice gave his money to the friend
whom he had pulled out, in order that
the bystanders might be induced TO con.
tribute freely. The ''little game. how
ever. was entirely spoiled by the police
inspector marching the two rogues oil "a
the nearest station. There are many
such impostors in Paris.
