A Good Man Painted.

1t was on the San Jose train, and two
young ladies-one as serious and good as
a little nun, the other with mischievous
black eye-sat behind the youngest min.
lister In town. The quiet one held in her
hand purple pansy SO large that it at
tracted the attention Of the young minis
ter. While he was still looking at it the
train rushed into tunnel. The black
eyed young woman grabbed the pansy in
the darkness from her companion, and
leaning over dvopped it in the lap of the
godIy man. When the train reached
daylight again the young minister had
turned and with the pansy in his hand
was glaring reproTingly at the nun like
girl between whose fingers he had seen
the flower. Her face was blazing, and her
down cast eyes seemed to confess her
guilt. The whole car snickered, and the
mischievous black eyed girl read her book
unconsciously. That is why the young
minister preached on the iniquity Of
flirting the next day.-Saz Francisco
Examiner.

At the last examination we noticed
that nearly all the teachers failed to
answer satisfactorily the question as to
the importance Of the Samoan Islands to
the United States. This could not be
learned from books, and only those who
read the papers and are we'll posted on
the current events of the day could
answer it, This suggests the thought
that all teachers should take and read
some one of the leading papers of the
day, and not only should they read the
current events of the day, but they should
be discussed 10 the school room, and the
pupils be encouraged 10 take part them
selves, and to take an interest in what is
going on in the busy world around them.
"A knowledge of these things helps to
make intelligent boys and girls, and they
will make intelligent men an women.

Lafayette vas, the people all looked at
Jackson and confined their expressions
of admiration to him.
The duel between Jackson and Sewer
seems to have escaped history and biogra.
ply. Sewer was Jackson's equal as a
soldier, and during his Indian fights of
over quarter century he never lost q
battle, because he always charged into
the natives when in q body, and the
Indian could fight a Tree in front of him.
In 1896 Sewer was the first governor of
Tennessee, and for twelve years. During
the first term Jackson was on the supreme
bench of the State. The two men had a
difficulty about military election, both
being candidates. On the day when
Jackson arrived at Knoxville to hold
court sevier came also, mounted block
in the square and denounced jackson in
unmeasured terms, calling him all the
names in the vocabulary. There could
be but one result, and that evening
Jackson challenged him. Sewer accept.
ed, and then came a question az to
where the fight should take place.
Jackson wanted to fight on the Cherokee
reservation and Sewer in Virginia. AS
s. resul, letters passed between them, in
which the word coward had the most
frequent use. Finally, Jackson started
for Virginia and notified Sewer. He
reached Virginia first and remained
several days awaiting the arrival of his
opponents. Sewer not appearing he
started for home, meeting his rival On
the way. They met in the road, ex-
changed several shots, neither one being
hurt, when friends interfered. They
never forsake each other, and there is
still tradition that this was the most
digraceful episode in the history of the
State.-NashviNe american.

quietly along the track, but later when
the engineer at the dynamo puts on more
power, or, as steam car man would say,
more steam, and the creeping thing on
the ground hastens it's movement until it
fairly flies, and becomes a moving speck

The SITTER has had occasion, here
tofore, to truthfully state that there is
class of political bummers in Yer
mont whose chief study by day and
by night is to circumvent the people
and place themselves in office. These
fellows all belong to cabal whose
grand Sachem holds his levees in the
historic town of st. Albans and can
properly be designated as st. Adams
Kickapoos. They are continually 60
ing up and down the state after blood
less scalp wherewithal to "feather
their own nests" Already they are
on the war pat, and there is not a
railroad town in the state that is not
being worked in the interest of some
of this gang on the strength of their
dispensing post-ofiice. 1t is barely
possible, and certainly to be hoped,
that the incoming administration will
not follow its predecessor in allowing
one man, or one little junta, to con-
troll the Vermont appointments. If
it does it may expect similar disgrace,
and the people will only find them
selves ''out of the frying pan and in
to the fire. just now it is interest
ing to note the struggle, that will soon
be hot, for l.. 5. District Attorney

candidates have arisen of the same

"Did YOU lose this?" inquired little
girl of some strangers who were picnick-
ing near Cypress Point, on the seventeen
mile drive out of Monterey, as she held
up pretty gold bracelet. t was during
the Chautauquan assembly at Pacific
Grove, in 1887, that party was made
up of those who took part in the lectures
to enjoy the ride, which is the great
feature of visit to the Ancient City by
the Sea. To come to Monterey without
making the trip would be on par with
person going to Saratoga and not
drinking at the mineral springs, or
spending vacation at Coney Island
without enjoying surf bath, In re-
sponse to the child's question gentle
man stepped forward and took the orna-
ment, which he discovered bore the name
of one of the young ladies stopping at
Ell Carmelo, together with the further
description that it was presented
to her by admirers during her en-
gagement at the Haymarket theatre,
London. An inquiry as to whether any
thing had been lost brought negative
reply, but the gentleman, after giving
the child some slight reward, carefully
consigned the bracelet to his pocket, re-
serving pleasant surprise for the even
ing, and all were apprised of the fact
that something would occur after supper
which would make at least one heart
beat for joy.
The trip home was made without
special incident, and at last the looked
for time arrived when one of the litter
ateurs present, who had been appointed
to perform the duty, called on Miss
Eleanor Calhoun, the talented young
Californian, and returned her lost keep
sake, which, it then became known, she
dropped the year previous while lunch
ing at the same spot, and there it had
lain hidden in the sand to be turned uI
by an unknown child's foot during the
owners next visit.-San Francisco Bull.

The Woodlands Decreased.

Fifty years ago every farm in the
eastern, middle and southern states had
from five to twenty acres 0. woodland.
These lands not only served many other
good purposes, but were natural resting
places for birds and served them as safe
shelter during the heat of the day. These
primitive forests were the home of many
species of birds. The writer well re-
members the delight experienced in 60
ing to the woods in the spring of the
year and listening to the songs Of the ma
tive warblers as they returned from their
winter quarters at the south. The shrill
whistle of the quail was as familiar to
the ears of the farmers as household
words. The scream of the blue jay rang
through the forest clear and loud. The
many species of woodpecker were
watched with intense interest as
they glided up and down the trunks
of the trees, ever and anon
rapping, with irresistible force, with
their powerful beaks, and frequent
ly drawing forth some huge grub,
that had been sapping the life of some
monarch of the forest While watching
these ever industrious and useful birds,
scarlet tanager, like flash of fire, or
some other bright bird, would fit by,
happy and beautiful, How is it now?
The woodman's AK and the pot hunters
gun can tell the sad story. The birds
have gone-no home, no resting place,
no safety anywhere!
The birds that were SO common fifty
years ago were mostly insect eating birds,
and destroyed millions of noxious insects,
and were of inestimable value to the
farmer and tiller of the soil. Even the
grain eating birds consumed large
number of larvae The humming birds,
supposed by many to ,subsist wholly upon
the florist -Vick's Magazine.

Senator Vance of North Carolina
proposed the other day when the tar
iff bill was under consideration to
move to put Bibles on the free list.
OF course this was voted down and
now this man who is said to be the
embodiment of profanity is indignant
that the Republicans should tax the
word of God. The Rutland Herald
hits the matter off pertinently as fol
lows: ''if Mr.. Vance will contrive
some way by which the 367,S90 per-
sons above ten years of age in his
state who cannot read may be taught
how, we will guarantee that the A
mericaD Bible Society will give every
one Of them copy of the Word OF
God, and the gift will not swell the
surplus a penny, but will furnish
bread to American labor, carrying the
Bread of Life TO hungry souls and in
few years make North Carolina a
