THE other day a gang of boys at
College Mound, Macon county, were
playing the soldier act and perform
ing the military drill, when one col
ored boy named Lon Quinn was shot
IN the face with gun and fatally
wounded. For time Quinn had Q
gun and made the other boys march
around quite lively, when one of
them, apparently tired of being in
structed by Quinn, picked up anOth'
er gun, pointed it at Quinn and or
dered him to fall into line and march.
The gun was loaded and was cooked
and when the boy pulled the trigger
! Quinn stopped marching and fell to
the ground with the contents of the
gun in his head.-LiRRcuS NcIVS.

IT may not be generally known
that Haskell Institute, located at
Lawrence, Kas., is school estab-
lisbed and supported by the govern
ment for the benefit of young Indi-
ans. Nearly all the western tribes
have representatives both male and
female as students in this school.
Similar schools are located I'M Penn
sylvania and Virginia but as these
are located so far from the pupils
that patronize them it IS thought by
some of the leading Western papers
that larger appropriations ought to
be made for the support Of the Rifsts.

ness of educating the Indian children
may be carried on as economically
as possible. The matter of trans
portation for the western pupils to
and from the eastern schools forms

account which should be made as
small as possible consistent with the
public good. At the late commence
ment of the Haskell Institute there
were several graduates of both sexes
who will return to their homes to
mix and mingle with their wild rela.
tives, many of whom will be taught
the ways of civilization through their

treatment at the hands of four viii
lians in June, 1884, the details of
which occurrence are familiar to all

over eight months, and it was through
areporter of Nevada, Mo-, who had
an interview with the husband that the

the Threshing Machines then
in use were almost wholly of
the class known as the Endless
Apron" style. Then it was that
Nichols & Shepard, of Battle
Greek, Mich. ,inventedandbegan
to develop an entirely new and
novel style of Grain Thresher and
Separator, which theyveryapPro
priately named the "Vibrator."
1t was a revolution in Thresh-
ing Machines, and from Il small
beginning of five machines in
1858 they soon reached pro-
duct of 1000 yearly.
Their Vibrator drove the " End
less Apron" machine out of mar
ket, and all other makers copied
it as closely as they dared. To-
day all Thrcshing Machines of
any reputation or merit use the
principles of the old Vibrator.
Nichols & Shepard have con-
tinued in the business without
change of name, location, or
management; and during the
past three years have brought
out and developed another new
Thrcshing Machine for grain and

machines as their former was 10

THE new law which banishes from
the saloon all gaming devices, in
cludirg pool and billiard tables, will
have a tendency TO materially de-
crease the revenue of saloon men.
A great deal of social drinking is
the result of gaming, and many
young men who visit saloons do so
mainly to enjoy games like pool or
billiards, and not from the desire for
intoxicating liquors. OF course the
saloons will lose much of this class
of custom when the new law goes
into effect.
