Became a Hebrew for Love.

BALTIMORE, MD,, April 13.-The
Hebrew circles of this city are considera.
bly, agitated by the announcement Of the
marriage of Emanuel Straus and Miss
Williams. The young lady was in the
employ of straus Brothers, lage whole-
sale dry goods concern, of which the
groom's father is partner. Young
Straus met Miss Williams and it was a
case of.love at first sight, but the groom
belonged to one of the strictest of the
orthodox families and the bride was a
Methodist. To overcome the obstacle the
young lady entered long probation to
become convert to the Isrealitish reli-
gion. She studied Hebrew for six months.
After the usual demands "Tbe House OF
Judgment" admitted her to the faith.
She then underwent the ceremony OF
passing through the "Aliboah" or bath,
and her name was changed from Lille tc
Rebecca. Then they we're secretly mar
ried. The marriage was not announced
until last week, and the parents in the
case refused their blessings. The couple
however, went away on bridal tour ant
are now in Chicago. II is the first CASE
of its kind ever known in Baltimore.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by ocalapplicatious, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure Deafness, aud that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an innamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Euitachian Tube.
When this tube gets inlamed you have q
rumbliug sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its

A Cigarette Smoker.

New YORK, April 2O.-"Let any boy
who smokes cigarettes look at me now and
know how I have suffered, and he will
never put another in his mouth" These
were almost the last words of Samuel
Kimball, sixteen years of age, who died
in ward at ST.. Johns hospital, Brook
Ign, Friday. As he lay upon his cot he
was indeed a sad spectacle, and q glance
at him undoubtedly would have been a
forcible warning to millions of youthful
cigarette smokers. His body was of
deadly yellowish hue, the face, arm,
and trunk were emaciated, and his legs
were swollen to twice their normal size.
His sunken, cheeks, livid lips, dull eyes
gave ghastly appearance to his face,
more like the face of the dead
than the living. The fresh air
came through the hospital window
and played around his head. but every
breath that be took cost an effort, and at
times it seemed as if he would strangle
to death. Nc nourishment had passed
his lips for hours. and his life was rapid
ly ebbing away. A faithful nurse sat
beside MIN chafDg his hands and trying
to cheer his last hours. His case at first
puzzled the physicians, but an examina-
tion showed that he was suffering from
q dropsical condition of the legs. He
experienced great difficulty in breathing
and the action of the heart was extremely
weak, though there seemed to be no
structural break. His system seemed
completely filled with nicotine. He
experienced great difficulty in taking
nourishment, saying that it burned him
like fire.
From the first his case was considered
hopeless one by the physicians, and he
was kept alive only by the inhalation
ofoxygen. The boy realized his condi-
ton, and until within a short time of bis
death retained his consciousness. "Young
Kimball, perhaps, smoked no more than
many other boys who were not SO serious.
ly injured as he was" said DR.. Royce,
the home surgeon of the hospital. "But
he was naturally nervous and delicate,
and should not have smoked at all. The
simple smoking of cigarettes deposits a
greater or less quantity Of nicotine in the
throat or mouth, but when the smoke is
inhaled into the lungs it is deposited Oh
surface that is aeperated from the blood
only by single membrance and admits
of more rapid and complete absorption
1t is therefore especially injurious to per-
SONS of nervous temperaments and dan
gerous to those whose hearts are weak
Young Kimball's case is rather an inter
esting one, and it will no doubt attract
much attention from the medical profes.

Profitable Farming.

The Atlanta Journal mentions Mr..
James B. Hunnicutt, of Coweta County,
as one of the champion farmers ofGeor.
gia, and the figures produced seem to
warrant the designation. MIR. Huunicutt
farms on an intensive plan, and last year
his clear profits from fifty acres Of land
worked with two mules were $4,000. The
figures are as follows 500 bushels of
corn, % bales of cotton, 700 bushels Of
oats, G2 bushels of wheat, so bushels of
barley, 500 bushels Of rutabaga turnips,
- tons of clover hay, and little of
everything else. For instance, from q
half acre be made 205 gallons of ribbon
cane syrup, sold $50 worth ofcane aud put
5000 stalks away for seed. On FIVE acres
in cotton he used four tons of CONNER
cial fertilizers and gathered seven bales
(aIthough the crop was considerably in
iu1ed by hail stormy and made clear
profit of S122--laud and mule, rent and
wear Of machinery being counted in the
expenses. Altogether he had thirty acres
in cotton. He gathered the 500 bush.
els of corn from seven acres of thin land,
heavily fertilized with compost. For the
last seven years Mr.. Hunnicutt has farm
ed on the intensive system, and during
that time he has never made less than
forty bushels of corn to the acre. This
is certainly good showing for two

Elmore County, Ala, also comes forward
as successful farmer. On 500 acres o.
land he raised last year 500 bales o1
cotton. His other crops were in like
proportion, and he raised "hog and
hominy" enough for home consumption
and had some to sell.

A Coined Romance.

CHARLESTON, S. G., April 20.-Deputy
United States Marshal w. T. Roark has
brought to the city some0hat famous
man iu Pickens County, Asa Patterson,
who for years has basked in the moon.
shine of the Blue Ridge. he was not a
bandit by profession, but he was most
daring mountaineer who fouted the
Federal laws and sold mountain dew by
the gallon or gill just as he desired. He
did more than that. He took the noun
tain dew around from door to door, and
but for the fact that people called him
peddler be might have gone into history
as an Ernani or Fra Diavolo. He,
however, never killed a friend, or even
an enemy, as his whiskey was said to be
exceedingly good. 1t had not the brand
of Cain on it.
Mr.. Roark says that Patterson was
brave fellow and a perfect gentleman in
bis way, with warm welcome at his
6reside far all, except deputy marshals.
After his arrival here, this Blue Ridge
whiskey bandit was taken out on the east
porch of the custom house, where he was
shown the sea for the first time iu all
his thirty FIVE years of royal freedom.
"Do you think you could Hwim across
that?" asked Mr.. Roark.
The bandit shook his head mourntully,
as it recalled to him thrilling episode
in his life when he was once hunted to
death almost by the deputy marshals.
Asa Patterson was convicted of the great
whiskey crime about eighteen months
ago at Greenville, and in a most
discourteous way, in his absence.
Since then he Las had the officers on his
track. He slept out at nights, and never
in the same place ony two nights in sue.

away River, near the North Carolina
line.
Early on very frosty morning the
deputy marshals made descent on this
cabin, in which lived the young wife and
children. While he was eating very
frugal breakfast of potatoes one of the
children shouted "NIarshals !" and Pat
terson endeavored to escape. There was
only one way not invested by the enemy,
and that was the icy river. Patterson,
like Julius Cesar at the Rubiccn, pulled
out his dice box, made throw of three
aces and pair of jacks and plunged into
the roaring Toxaway. The marshals saw
they were foiled The current swept
Patterson diagonally over to the left
bank of the Toxaway, where he Chamber
ed up the escarpment of rock. He
quietely sat down and raised his right
hard, which contained baked sweet
potato to his mouth and ate itin dcrision
of his pursuers.

Patterson has been a fugitive, until he

surprised alone in house by two mar

Six.MiIc Fishlines.

They fish with fshlines six miles long
in Wipnebago Lake, Wisconsin, and use
10000 hooks on every line. If they
don't haul up 1000 fish every time they
lift line they don't think they are hav.
ing very good luck. And every fish will
weigh from twenty to seventy pounds.
That's the way they fish for sturgeon out
there. One of these fshlines will reach
half way across the lake. 1t is rope en-
inch in diamteer. 1t is stretched out into
the lake by means of boats, large buoys
being attached to it at intervals to keep
it on the surface. The 10000 hooks,
baited with pieces of meat or fish, are
lowered to the bottom of the lake by
sdoods of the proper length which are
fastened to the main line. 1t takes
twenty boats, with two men in each, to
look after this iishline. Each boat has
1,GOO of the snoods in its charge. These
are tied to the main line Is inches apart,
and to bait all the hooks once requires
not less than 1000 pounds of bait. 1t
takes the forty men and twenty boats ten
hours to set the line for the first time.
After that the fishermen are employed in
going over the line, hauling in the stur-
seon that have been caught on the hooks,
and rebating where it ia neeessaTy.
To haul in seventy pound sturgeon
from the bottom of the lake is an excit-
ing piece of work but it requires more
strength than skill, as the fish always has
the hook several inches down his throat,
having sucked the baitand all down with
out any regard 10 consequences. There
is no danger Of losing the fish unless the
hook breaks. When the FISH is hauled
to the surface gait as big as meat
hook is thrust into the boat and knocked
in the head with heavy maui. The
hook that captured it is cut out of its
throat, rebaiLed, and thrown back into
the lake. The average catch ofsturgeon
is one to every ten hooks. When a boat
is loaded with all it can carry of sturgeon
the fishermen row back to shore, where
others lake the fish and dispose Of them
The fishermen know the particular Sec
tions of the line OIL which they work by
the arrangement of the buoys. These
are placed ten feet apart, aud one in 15C
of them is painted red. The space be-
tween the red buoys contains 1000
hooks. The sections are numbered anc
the boats are numbered. The boats
work the sections, as their numbers cor
respond with the section numbers.
While the average catch is one sturgeon
to ten hooks, it is no uncommon thing
for the fishermen to find but one or two
on an entire section of 900 hooks. Tht
very next section may contain the full
average of 100 and perhaps more.

TEA6HERS'GoL,UMN.

The 10th of May is the time set apart
in this State for decorating the graves of
the soldiers of "tbe lost cause" and we
pen this to suggest to those teachers
whose schools will then be in sessions,
the propriety of observing the day by
some sort of exercises. If there are no
soldiers graves near by to be decorated,
let some sort of exercises, such as recita-
tions of some of Father Ryan's war Tyr
les. be prepared for the occasion, and if
the teacher cannot do it, let some one be
invited to pay tribute to the memory
of the dead Confederate soldiers. The
boys and girls who are now in our schools
are the children and grandchildren OF
Confederate soldiers, living or dead, and
we ought to be quick to impress upon
their minds the great historical fact that
these men fought for principle, and
illustrated upon the battlefield, in camp
and in prison, the highest type of SOL
dierly manhood, and that they were in
no sense traitors to their country. AS
our school, histories are now being writ
ten and taught to our children, there is
danger that they may grow up with the
feeling that there was something about
it of which they need to be ashamed.
Let US, as teachers, bear some humble
part in teaching the children of the State
that they have a priceless heritage of
glory in the undying fame of the men
who marched beneath the folds of the
Conquered banner" Their names
appear upon but few sculptured shafts,
aud they are not the recipients of the
pensioned bounty Of paternal Govern.
ment. then let US do something to for.
ever enshrine them in the hearts OF
their living and loving children, and
make them feel proud to know that they
are the children of Confederate soldiers.

One of the most pitiable objects in G
school room is the drudge, the teacher
who feels that she has no heart in the
work, and who feels that she is simply
paid so many dollars for SO much time,
and aims to put in the time 80 as to draw
the money at the end of the month, and
who day by day does nothing but hear
classes recite. Hour after hour the call
is heard "come aud SPELL" !" "come and
read" and when the recitation is ended
no pupil in the class has taken in an
idea, there has been no step forward in
the process of mental development and
growth, in fact, the pupil has been rather
hindered than helped, aud as between
such a school and such teacher, we
should prefer to leave him alone to the
teachings of nature. From such teachers
may the good Lord deliver us.
