The towns and cities of Southern Ohio
are catching the "boom" fever. and each
place, from the city of ten thousand down
to the hamlet of one hundred and fifty, is
branching out and telling the world of
the wonderful advantages of each locali-
ty. The laying off in town lots of large
tracts of ground is as common in these
booming days as the ploying of furrow
in corn field. Jackson has been slow
to catch the excitement, and it is better
thus. The town has all modern improve
ments--at least all that are needful or
desirable, and the man who invests in
property in Jackson knows just what his
taxes will be and what his prospects for
a comfortable and desirable home are
This town is growing steadily, growth
that will stick. Let every citizen of
Jackson use the best endeavor possible to
further the interests of his town-uot by
decrying other towns, but by calmly and
confidently presenting the undoubted and
undisputed claims of Jackson upon the
attention of Capitalists.

EaRaetOus Cats,

Albany, Ga, has the wisest cats in the
State. A deaf gentleman had large
white cat which at certain hour would
wish to retire, and would rub himself
against his msster's leg and cry piteously
TO go to the house where it slept It's
master could tell by the appearance OF
its month when it cried, and If he was
not ready to retire would reach down
and give it slap, when the cat would
become perfectly quiet, and take its seat
until its master took down his bunch of
keys, when it would arise and
prepare to follow him to the
house. The same family owned two
cats of the female gender. Once
one Of these animals, which had litter
of young kittens, brought the other cat
to them, showed her the kittens one by
one, purred, and made queer noises over
them, and went of, leaving the other cat
in possession of the kittens. The mother
cat paid no more attention to her Off
spring, and in ten days she was dead.
She must have realized that she was
about to die and called the other cat with
the request that she take care OF her
young. The adopted mother raised
them, and they became some of the
most famous mousers in the place. An
other cat had just weaned her kittens,
when, shortly after, she was blessed
with another family. Her good sense,
more than instinct, taught her to make
the elder kittens useful. When she
wanted to 60 out on a foraging expedi-
ton she would bring one of the older
kittens to watch the younger. 1t took
considerable cat language and several
slaps to make them understand fully the
duties required Of them, but, when fully
comprehended, all kittenish desires to
frolic were restrained. and the young
cat on guard became as demure little
nurse as possible.

the field, is looking about to find an
available name TO place at the top OF it.
The man upon whom the distinction
is most likely to fall is Henry Smith,
of Milwaukee, who is the only member
of the House Of Representatives at
Washington elected by the Labor party.
His vote was more than thirty-seven
hundred larger than that cast for the
Republican candidate in this district, and
more than 5000 larger than that for the
Democratic candidate. DR.. McGlynn,
who must now be considered supreme
in the party to which he belongs, speaks
OF him as "the Abraham Lincoln type
of the American citizen" Whatever
this may mean, there is no question OF
the prominence into which dissension in
his party at headquarters has brought
the name of Henry Smith.
The probable presidential candidate OF
the United Labor party was born at
Baltimore, Md, July %, 1888. He was
but an infant when his parents removed
to Marshallton, Stark county, 0. In lS45
the family removed to Milwaukee, in
which city Mr.. Smith received CON-
mon-school education. he afterward
learned the trade of millwrieht. When
be was about thirty years old he
began public life as a member of the
Common Council of Milwaukee. After
four years service in this capacity he re-
sumed work as a private citizen. In 1878
he took his seat as member of the
Wisconsin Legislature. He was again a
member of the Common Council OF the
city OF his residence from 1880 TO 1882.
The next two years he was city comp
troller at Milwaukee. From 1884 to
February IA, 1887, he was for the third
time member of the Common Council.
His election to the Fiftfeth Congress was
the succeeding step in his Advancement.

appears, has been determined upon, has
more than usual interest. The Marquis
of Lansiowne, Governor-General CT
Canada, will shortly vacate the honor,
for, it is reported, the even create
dignity Of succeeding the Earl Of Duff
fern as Governor-G General of India, and
his successor will be the fine-looking
nobleman whose portrait-made from a
recent photograph-we print with this
notice.
Frederick Arthur, Lord Stanley OF Pres
ton. G. C. B., is brother OF the present
Earl Of Derby. He was born in London
in 1871, entered the Grenadier Guards in
1853, and retired in 1865. AS Sir Fred
erick Stanley he entered the House OF
Commons in 1865, the Conservative
member for the borough Of Preston,
Lancashire, and his services in Parlia-
ment have been continuous since that
date. His first Office was that Of Civil
Lord Of the Admiralty, given him IN
1868. In the years l874-'77 he was FL
nancial Secretary to the War Office. He
became Secretary to the Treasury In
1877. In April. 1878, he was made Sec
rotary OF State for War, with q seat IN
the Cabinet. He left Office with his
party in 1880. In the Ministry of 1885
and 1886 he was Secretary of State for
the colonies. The chief incident OF his
administration was the recall of Sir @.
Warren from Bechuanaland. In August,
1886, he became president Of the Board
OF Trade and was raised to the peersge
as Baron Stanley of Preston. During
his entire career as public man he has
consistently maintained his membership
with the Conservative party, OF which
his father, it will be remembered, was q
leading ornament. The present Earl
of Derby and head of the Stanley family
is counted with those Liberals who, on
the Irish question, refuse to follow the
lead of Mr.. Gladstone.
