y lit Fer Moths.

For moths, salt is the best extermina-
tor. The nuns in one of the hospital con-
vtn's have tried everything else without
success, and their experience is valuable,
IS they have SO much clothing of the sick
who go there, and strangers, when dying
there, often leave quantities of clothing,
etc. They have room full OF feathers,
Which were sent there for pillow making,
ard they were In despair, as they could
net extermlnate the moths, until they
were advised to try common salt. They
sprinkled it around, and in a week or ten
days they were altogether rid of the
moths. They are never troubled now.
In heavy velvet carpets, sweeping them
with salt, cleans and keeps them from
moths, as particles of the salt remain in
the carpets and corners. Salt is not hurt
full to any one, and has no bad smell.
Here isa little hint I add, which, per
haps, every one does not know: For
cleaning wasb-basins, bath, etc, use the
same thing, common dry salt. Rub
little of the salt with your fingers on the
hasin. Of!ea sort of scum Is noticed IN
the basins in marble wash stand In the
bathroom: the salt takes it off easily,
and leaves the basin shining and clean.
Any person entitled to pre- empt and
homestead quarter section of land my
exercise both privileges by taking the
pre- emption first. The goYerement laws
prohibit anyone from leaving any lard of
his own to pre-empt, and if a homestead
or timber claim is desired, 1t can be taken
after the pre-emption has been secured.
By taking this course, man can secure
4S0 acres of land in this locality, but,
timber culture claims" and .'desert land'
are not found in this locality. A pre-
emptlon is obtained by six months resi-
dence and the payment of 81 90 per acre
within thiry-three months from settle
ment. A residence of five years, and the
payment of $22 and other small fees at
at the land office, is necessary to secure
q homestead or it may be commuted on
the terms of presumption. Lands, valu. |
able chiefly for timber or stone, may be |
purchased direct from the government at |
$3.50 per acre. School lands are sold at |
$1.25 per acre, on easy terms, and tie |
amount sold to one person IS limited TO |
800 acres. Tide lands are sold by the
state On similar terms to the school lands.
There is also special provision for sell
ing mineral and coal lands direct from
the government. Land Is to be obtained
under all these provisions in this county
at present, but the influx of immigration
will make 1t difficult to get good locations
after this year.

The Louisville Gourier-Journal, which
Systematically disparaged and derided
Abraham Lincoln during tie war, now
pays this gracious tribute to his charac-
ter: ITO the conduct of public affairs
Lincoln brought all the qualities of a
great mans head and heart. One can
Lot read the public records of that period
without feeling new respect for the
President; new admiration for his sim
gleness of purpose; ior his uDselfish pa-
triotism; for his !ucidity of thought and
evenness of temper; for the c.earness with
which be stated his position, and for the
earnestness and eloquence with which he
appealed to the hearts and consciences of
his countrymen for their support"
Prneville Nens: On Friday of last
week VIM. McMeekin, the sawmill man,
lost valuable team OF horses by tree
falling on them. His hired man was
driving the team through the woods not
far from the mill after a load of logs,
when leaning fir suddenly fell, striking
the horses across their heads, killing item
almost instantly. No blame whatever is
laid upon the hired man, as the accident
was as unavoidable as it was sudden, and
the fellows own escape from death was
fortunate. The team was very valuable
one, and the loss falls correspondingly
heavy on Mr.. McMeekln.

HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES.
Brief of the Constitutions Of the Athletic
Association.


Association.
Percy Klund, chairman, John McGov-
ern, John Martin, Robert Weir and
Edgar Sperry, the committee to draft
a constitution for the Athletic Associa-
tion Of the Boys High School, held a
meeting this morning. Professor George
NJ Warren, of the High School, assisted
them in the work. The report will
be presented at the meeting Of
the association, probably on Tues
day afternoon. The constitution
states the following object: 1.-The object
of this association shall ever be the legiti-
mate encouragement Of outdoor sports
games and contests; the awakening of a
friendly rivalry between classes, and an
increased interest in school life. +" The
officers shall be- President vice-presi-
dent, secretary, treasurer and board
of directors. The board will
consist Of two members from
each class, and will have general
supervision Of all events Officers shall
be elected semi-annually in September
and February Half the total member-
mhip shall constitute a quorum. The sea
son is so late that the association will not
do much in outdoor sports this fsll. The
work will be taken mp early in the
spring A base ball club will be branch
of the association.
Next year a feot ball team may be
organized The idea Of the projectors is to
have two days each year for field sports,
when the usual list of events will take
place. Features Of these meets will be
throwing the base ball and kicking the
foot ball for distance, hurdle races and
tugsof-war.
Benefit is expected to arise from the
organization of this association, and as
it is in the line of the new education,
its progress viii be noted With interest
by teachers and parents, The brightgesi
men in the Universities are those who
have been prominent in the athletics OF
those Universities.

The Job II. jackson, Jr. four masted

the jackson and Sharp Company this
afternoon. The schooner is the sixth
built by this Company for Captain D. S.

pany since 1870.
Captain Edwin Kershaw, who superin-
tended the building Of the Job h. Jack

schooner ready to start. the shores
were knocked away and she glided
swiftly into the Christiana river. The
shore line drew taut and the schooner
struck the soft mud on the opposite side
oflthe stream. AS it left the ways
Henry F. Askew Jackson strewed flowers
across the bow of the schooner, and
christened her the JOB H. Jackson, Jr. y
It was intended that Job II. Jackson, Jr
aged three and a-half years, should chris
ten the boat, but the unpleasant weather
made it otherwise Henry is 10 years of
age. He christened the @'Job H. jackson
a few years ago, and it was ccincident
that as the junior boat was being
launched, the elder was gliding down the
Delaware river.
The launch took place at just twenty
three minutes after l o'clock, and 9
cheer went up from the crowd of specta-
tors, and a toot from the tugs Claudis

shore.

and wealth from Republican politicians
which are still unredeemed. he brought

and received the money from a white
man whom he did not know He said
that since the meeting in Harman Hall
several men, niggers aud ow-down
white men, had notified him to call and
get the money 70 pay his taxes,
Clinton said that IL was no benefit for
him TO vote, He had frequently voted for
the white men whom he did not know
and "got little or nothin for IL. He said
Il did not do him any good to vote and
he did not vote unless somebody else
paid his poll tax. He said he did not
'kere nothin' for none OF EN-, but he
generally voted the Republican ticket.
IL may be a credit to the Republican
party to take an interest in the negro s
