ANGLING IN COSTUME,
A Man Who Would Rather Fish Than
Get Married.

"A Man Who Would Rather Fish Than
Get Married.
From Forest and Stream.l
A jolly party was In camp by Lake
Foley, no matter where, having good luck
fishing, catching black bass, croppies and
pickerel. Inasmueh as two barrels of
these fish were caught the last two days,
some of the bass weighing five pounds and
pickerel from seven to eleven pounds by
the scales, it may be accepted as proof of
fine sport.
One afternoon, when The boats were in
and the boys were constructing dinner,
carriage was driven up on the little by
road and out stepped a gentleman dressed
in the altitude of fashion. He proved to be
a friend Of one of the party and was cor.
daily greeted, notwithstanding his silk
hat, swallow-tail coat, low-cut vest. expau-
sive shirt bosom, kid gloves, patent-leaither
shoes, silk umbrella, and a red pongee kerr
chief cunningly showing from a side
pocket. The contrast, glancing from this
pleasing spectacle to our mud-stained APP
parel, SLOUGH hats and bronzed counten-
ancss, was severe, and there was difficulty
In restraining remarks.
The gentleman explained without hesi-
tation that he was going to a wedding, at
the railroad station four miles away, and
happening to hear that we were at the
lake, and having several hours to spare, he
forthwith determined to come out. He
was sorry to appear in polite society in

TWO DOUDLE-GYLIEDER HOE PRESSES

Which We are now using. They are both
in PERFECT ORDER, and will be guar
anteed to do FIRST-CLASS WORK. We
will sell them AT A SACRIFICE, as
they must be disposed of to accommodate
the new press, and one of them can be de-
ivered Immediately; the other must be
retained until our new press is in opera
ton. The sizes of bed-plates are 40x60.
This is an opportunity to secure bargain
that is rarely presented to the newspapers
of this coast. Terms of payments can be
made easy for the purchasers if desired.
Both these presses can be seen in opera
ton at this Office at any time. tf&Su

She sits before the harpsichord,
Her fingers straying DER the keys;
Sure pleasant food her thoughts afford,
Perchance her thoughts are over seas.
"0h, come from dreamla and S misty haze,
And give a word, smile to me ~

Upon my cousin Dorothy.
Sir Joshua and all his ik
Had gladly painted such q face,
And dainty figure, robed in silk,
Ablaze with jewels, soft with lace;
Would that times wheels were backward turned
A century or so. and we
The lesson of to-day unlearned-
Our great grandparents, Dorothy
measure we to tread would choose,
Like squire and dame in ancient tale;
in my wig and buekled shoes,
And you in ruff and far hingale;
And would l, as l touched your hand,
Look down into your eyes TO see
A light only could command,
And know you were my Dorothy?
Alack, the hour cannever be,
1t only dreams in faney's day;
For even while she smiles on me,
l know her mind is far away.
But as | watch her there apart,
In dreams, alas not .faney free"
! know that have lost my heart
To my sweet cousin Dorothy.

Thousands of Southern negroes wear
the cast-of clothing of New Workers.
Such clothing is bought for little or
nothing by peddlers, who sell it to whole
salers in the central European quarter
The wholesalers clean, patch and press
the garments, arrange them according to
sizes in dozens to await the southern mer-
chants The latter come from Washing
ton, Richmond, Charleston, Mobile and
half dozen other considerable cities and
buy as best they may The wholesalers sell
on ninety days credit, and if one mer-
chant does not offer fair prices they
await the coming of others. Nobody's
profits are extraordinary large, but those of
the Southern retailer are probably the

sYoAMoREs IN BLOOM.

sYcAMoREs IN BLOOM.
Like flame winged hearts the seed blooms lie
Amid the shadowy sycamores
The music of each leaflets sigh
Thrills them continually,
The small harps of the sycamores.
Small birds innumerable find rest
And shelter midst the sycamores.
Their songs (of love in warm, soft nest)
Are family echoed east and west
By the red harps of the syeamores.
The dewfall and the starshine make
Amidst the shadowy sycamores
Sweet delicate strains: the gold beams shake
The leaves at morn. and swift awake
The small harps of the sycamores.
o sweet Earths music everywhere,
Though faint as in the sycamores;
Sweet when buds burst, birds pair;
Sweet when as thus there wave in the air
The red harps of the sycamores.

Sin Joshna and all his M


Gently, beneath her perfect rounded chin,
The instrument is clasped, as mothers hold
Across their hearts a much loved child, to
fold
It from the world of misery and sin.
She draws the bow across the strings, to win
To life the tones now soft, now strong and
bold
(But ever breathing some grand truth untold),
That dormant lies within the violin.
Oh, mystery of music, wondrous art
The sympathetic violin but steals
The loves and hates that dwell within the
heart
The very hopes, the vague desires she feels
And at the bows quick touch they rise and start
In melody that inmost soul reveals

AT THE PIANO.

With dropping head and parted lips,
And the moonlight on her hair.
Ny lady sits, while the music drips
From her fingers thin and fair.
My lady sweet, whom | adore,
Though forever lost to me-
Oh, bitter words no moreno more
That throb through the minor key.
The plaintive strains that rise and fall
Are like tears of those who part,
And ever under and through them all
Rings the cry of breaking heart.

YOUR VIOLIN.

YOUR VIOLIN.
Your violinl All, me
Twas fashioned Ger the sea
In storied Italy
What matters where
1t is its voice that sways
And thrills me as it plays
The tunes of other days
The days that were.
Then let your magic bow
Glide lightly to and fro
close my eyes, and so,
In vast content,
kiss my hand 10 you,
And to the tunes we knew
Of old, as well as TO
Your instrument.
Poured out OF some dim dream
OF lulling sounds that seem
Like ripples of a stream
Twanged lightly by
The slender, tender hands
OF weeping willow wands
That droOp where cleaning sands
And pebbles lie.
A melody that swoons
In all the truant tunes
Long, lazy afternoons
Lure from the breeze,
When woodland boughs are stirred,
And moaning doves are heard,
And laughter afterward
Beneath the trees.
Through all the chorusing
hear on leaves of spring
The drip aud pattering
OF April skies,
With echoes faint and sweet,
AS baby angel feet
Might make along a street
of Paradise.

TO YOUNG LADY SINGING IN A CHOIR.
My best wish is that your sweet voice
May never, never die;
But after you have sung through earth
You'll sing up in the sky
With other angels bright and fair,
Who'll be up there along;
With whom you'll join in heavenly praise
OF everlasting song.
And should happen to get there,
Ny happiest hours would be
Spent sitting in an orchestra chair,
A'listening to thee. Charles u Kurt.

She swept the keys with vibrant fingers,
And drove the nervous strain along;
Still in my mind the music fingers,
Sweet as the bard's muttered song.
Then changed it to an icy pealing;
Cold as the prayer was the tone
That came upon my spirit stealing,
Until felt was alone.
Once more it changed. So low and tender
Throbbing with love the music sighed
My arm around her waist so slender
Unconsciously began to glide.
On went the strain, st II more beguiling,
A ditty of the golden age;
Just then her head she lifted, smiling,
Il. And said, ''Will you please turn the page?'

Voters, don't forget Cool's record IN
the county printing matter. He was
determined that his man should have
the contract, fairly or unfairly, and he
did get it.
Alliance voters will do well to guard
against ticket destroyers. We furnish
each precinct six times as many tickets
as there are voters, and there is no use
of letting them give out.

He made good talk for an hour and
half, and gave general satisfaction.
At the close of his speech Mr.. Garrison.
of Sharon, made a thrilling speech of
nearly an hour. He read a choice ex-
tract, and asked the republicans pres
snt If they did not believe the extract
10 be good republican doctrine, to hold
up their hands. Half a dozen hands
went up, and he then told them the ar
ticle was written by John J. ingalls,

appreciated by all except the republi
cans who were sold.

We are authorized to say that the
statement in the Cresset that the post
master at Sharon promised the alliance
to vote its ticket before he was initial
ed is simply malicious falsehood. He
joined the alliance before 1T decided to
put out a ticket. /. Wonder what Sam
Robinson's idea Is in suing Sharon al
lance for damages? Does he want
sympathy or does he expect to bluff
somebody? Some men don't know
when they have had enough of thing.

that Sharon alliance objected to repub

house. The charge is false, for 1 per-
sonally engaged another place for our

Sam Robinson stated, in the presence
of Frank Shell, that he had no evidence
in the alliance. but that it was all out
side. Robson was dropped member
for non payment of dues, and had been
notified of the same. and refused to pay
up, and was expelled from the alliance.
