There are many firm believers in the theory
that most people are crazy at times, and
facts seem to support their belief. The fol
lowing, from u source unknown to the
writer, will likely remind a number of our
readers of some incident in their experience,
which at the time of its occurrence seemed
to them most unaccountable.
"a wise man will step backward off a
porch or into mud puddle; great philoso-
pher will hunt for the specks that are in his
hand or on his forehead, a hunter will some
times shoot himself or his dog. A working
girl had been feeding great clothing knife
for ten years. One day she watched the
knife come down slowly upon her hand. Too
late she woke out of her stupor with one
hand gone. For a few seconds her mind had
failed and she sat by her machine u tenn
porary lunatic and had watched the knife
approach her own hand.
A distinguished professor was teaching
near a canal Walking along one evening
in summer he walked as deliberately into
the canal as he had been walking along the
path second before. He was brought to
his senses by the water and mud and the alb
surdity of the situation. He had on a new
suit of clothes and new silk hat, but though
the damage was thus great he still laughs
over the adventure. Our mail collectors
find in the iron boxes along the streets all
sorts of papers and articles which have been
put in by some hand from whose motions the
mind has become detached for second. A
glove, a pair of spectacles, a deed, mort
gage, theatre ticket, goes in, and on goes
the person, holding on to the regular letter
which should have been deposited. This is
called absent mindedness but is brief
lunacy. n-Scieltitic American.

Owen, of the Port Byron Globe, gets
off the following.
Wednesday evening at about 7:30 the
denizens Of the village were suddenly
lifted out of their boots by the most I'M
earthly noise that 1t has ever been mans
misfortune to hear. twas a combination
of screams, yells, cries of despair, howls
of rage, means of death, hysterical Laughs
ing of the demented-a concentrated in
donation of all the horrible sounds in
the universe hair raising din indes-
cribable. Dogs were terror stricken
and howled; family cats sought shell
ter under the kitchen stove; chickens fell
from their roosts, cows beloved and
horses neighed; chimneys tottered and
houses trembled as by an earthquake;
grass was wilted and fruit buds blasted.
1t was awful-it was sickening. The
cause of all this din and torture is said to
be the little steamer that bears the name
of the proud city, Moline. They have
invented n new whistle for her, and were
aided by the devil in their wicked work.

The observers of the Illinois weather
service have made the following report
for the week ending April %, to
the secretary of the state board of agri-
culture, concerning the condition OF
winter wheat, oats. grass lands, live
stock, etc;
The continued dry and cold weather
during the previous week has reduced
the prospects for wheat in all portions of
the state, and the reports indicate that
much more of the wheat will be plOwed
up than heretofore expected
The prospects for the rye crop are less
favorable than last week and unless there
is sufficient rain and seasOnable weather
to stimulate the growth of the plant, this
crop will be one of the poorest on rec
ord.
Corn planting is progressing very
slowly. the general complaint being
drouth and temperature.
Oats are making but little growth. the
stand is fair and with sufficient rain and
warm weather, this crop will soon dem
onstrate the probability of q harvest.
There has been no improvement in the
condition of grass during the past week.
Pastures have made but little growth and
there is general complaint of want of rain
to ensure growth.
The prospects for grass and grain
crops have not been so discouraging at
corresponding date for many years past.
According to crop Reporter CampbelIs
report to the commissioner of agriculture
for the month of April, the average con-
diton of winter wheat in Rock Island
county today is rs; winter rye. IS;

The first presidency of the church is not a
one man power. 1t is composed of prcsi-
dent and two counselors-three high priests
chosen by the vote of general conference
of the whole church. The next body in
authority is the quorum Of the apostles, COM
posed of twelve high priests, with president
at their head This quorum is equal in
authority to the first presidency, and in case
of the death of the president, which event
discrepancies the first presidency, the twelve
apostles preside over the church. This is the
situation at the present time, no one yet hay
ing been appointed to succeed the late John
Taylor as president Of the church. After the
twelve apostles come the seventies, of which
there are great many quorums, each COM
posed of seventy elders The first quorum
of seventies is equal in authority to the
twelve apostles of the first presidency.
There are many other quorums in the
priesthood, all of whom have presiding
officers, but such officers act only as directed
by the members of their respective quorums.
There is no one man power, but the whole is
bottomed on the people, upon the whole body
of the church membership, each member
having a voice and vote The first presi-
dency must be sanctioned by the voice of the
people.-Delegate John T, Caine.

ing whether rats could and would start a fire
by gnawing matches Three large rats were
placed in wire cage containing a bunch of
matches. The first night four fires were set
by the rats, and others were caused during

showed that only the phosphorus ends We're
gnawed, and that some of them were car

The rats had plenty of good food, but ate the

This is Book Beer" dsy-May land
great aud jolly occasion 1t is in some
parts of the world, With our German
friends is this especially true. Almost
every German is fairly familiar with the
etymology of the term, and will explain
to the inquirer that block beer" contains
more malt than the ordinary lager beer,
and certain quantity Of il will have a
more decided effect than the same guam
tity Of lager beer. On account Of this
"bucking" quality it was called block
bier" the sponsor undoubtedly having in
mind the tendency of goat TO use his
business end.
The custom of brewing "bock beer" is
very old. 1t was first introduced by Ger
man brewers for the purpose Of giving
their customers a treat when what the
American brewers call the winter beer"
has been used, or rather when the term
for this winter" beer had expired. In
Olden times the brewers were in the habit
of brewing in summer, and the book
came on before the lager of the last years
brewing had given out. Book beer is
brewed in December only for the season
which lasts about four week, beginning
on April /. 1t is more expensive and is
brewed as yearly favor to the Gus
toner.
In the "bock beer" signs of the present
day nearly all traces of the old-time sig
nicance are lost. The splendid speci>
men of William goat holding up large
foaming glass of beer, or the illustration

ers, as large as horses, has given place to
the esthetic and buXom bar maid, carry
ing dozen or more glasses, or dash!ng
ladies'. in impossible costumes, cut very
low in front, are pictured on the signs.
They are not wanting people, too, who
hint that with the advent of the more ex~
pensive, highly illuminated posters the
quality of the beverage has deprecated,
and that the "bock" has lost much of his
old-time vigor and strength. However
that may be, "bock beer" is still very
popular, and the votaries of the William
goat are counted by thousands.
