That Dr. Cook and Mr. Lucius Price have re-
ported corn tassels. They expect to begin feastng
on roasting ears in n short while. Owing to tho
uncertainty of tho later seasons al early maturing
variety Of corn is desideratum with the farmer.

Gus anliction is going to follow-viz. the candi-

ing houses in our community;
That party Of twenty-five boarded the train at

The New York Evening Sun says
that when man actually has rabies, he
cannot be cured by a maidstone or any
thing else. But Pasteur's discovery that
the incubation of attenuated rabid virus
will indefinitely check the onset of fatal
rabies is q boon to thousands. Already
the average mortality in France in cases
of persons bitten by mad dogs has been
lowered from fifteen to three per cent.
Fortunately, in many instances, the
poisonous saliva of dog is wiped off by
the clothes of the person bitten.
"A Leayenworth man proposes to
wager any sum. between $4,000 aud

road or railway.
- Murder seems to be the least peril
Gus of all the felouious pastimes known

atty oftheir crimes by yielding their own
lives to the law.
"A novel way Of raising money to

are that this will be most successful

ginning, the thorough preparations SO

called together large concourse of people,
many more than the house could hold.
All the windows and doors were crowded
from the outside, and even then many
wsre unable to hear the sermon. A little
after 10 o'clock the Sunday School was
called together, and lessons dispensed
with. Mr.. Columbus Wardlaw, who was
there at the request of the Superinten-

ing them some thoughts on whom and
what to teach. This is good Sunday
School, in fine working order, under the
