Poverty and Conceit.

| have heard a great many things
said in my time against poverty, but
never till the other day, when a clever
woman made the suggestion. did it &C.
u TO me that poverty tends to make
a mar couceited. Her argument was
AS follows: A poor ma has 10 earn
his living, and the mere fact that he
does 50 leads him To think highly of
himself, whereas the rich man, who
lives on the interest Of money acquired
originally by an ancestor near or re-
mote. makes no living. snot even Ger.
tain that he could make one. and con-
sequently remains in a humble, or at
least in a modest. state Of mind. Bos-

Difference Between Hair and Wool.

IN hair OF the negro, with its ten
dcncy 10 kink or curl, is mockingly
jailed wool" because it To thisextent
resembles the hair of the sheep. Curly
hair is. as "A matter of fact, less perfect
than straight hair. But through all
this range-of the human plant. "nat's
hair, and Sleeps ~wool-nature shows
such close gradations that il would be
difficult to draw AN exact line between
hair aud wool, or in this respect to
separate the sheep from the goats.
Witness the Angora goat, whose fleece,
known rs mohair, is reckoned a supe.
rior wool. and the Peruvian alpaca, or
llama. The microscope distinguishes
very clearly, however, between wool
and silk. the fiber Of which is an even
double iilament of gum exuded by
the silkworm: and between wool and
the vegetable iibers. such as cotton,
which, growing AS "A tube, dries into a
half twisted ribbon. having no barbed
edge.
The root of the hair has a natural
tendency 10 dry up as warm weather
approaches, allowing the hair TO fall
free from the skin; thus animals
shed their coats" But when hair Is
cut, as with human beings, or the
fleece sheared, as in the case Of sheep,
nature adapts itself to the demand
upon il, aud growth is continuous.

The school Election.

Two weeks from yesterday occurs the
election for two members of the board Of
education. While the question of candi-
dates has been quietly discussed of late,
there is a general vagueness as to ticket
of any sort. The general desire ex-
pressed by the friends OF the schools for
the return of Director Thomas, has led
that gentleman to the consent to the use
of his name and he will undoubtedly be
reelected. Director Knowlton is also be-
ing urged to return, and it is said that he
is a candidate. DR.. Carl Bernhard is
said to be agreeble to a movement look
ing to his selection as member of the
board, and DR.. G. B Kinyon and David
Sears are probably not adverse to being
considered in the same connection. There
are number of other gentlemen. how

AFTER the work of the republican
county convention yesterday. no one will
deny the excellence of the minority plan
of representation in our state legislature,
and the necessity of 1t is more readily
conceived. While the primary object oil
the law was to avoid the evils of a large
majority by either party, it is apparent
that it is essential in other ways. Not
withstanding majority of 5000 in the
district. the republican party can hardly
afford to endorse the work of yesterdays

IN the liebt of Yesterdays convention

In the light of yesterdays convention,
i. is the undoubted duty of the demo-
cratic senatorial convention to nominate
two candidates for the legislature-men
who are qualified to represent the district
if elected. And the same convention
will be called upon to nominate a cam
didate for state senator. If wisdom is
displayed in this selection, the district
will be happily delivered from four years
of Crawfordism. and that is a good deal
to contend for. Either Hon. +. w

repulsed them with volley from his Win

returned the fire with interest, and finally,
after threats of cremating the messenger
in the car, he surrendered. The safe was
opened, and the robbers secured about
1000.
Torture of the Messenger.
Neolin, the express messenger, and the
fireman and engineer were then taken
into the woods by the robbers and tied to
trees. They then shot the messenger in
the hand and arm, and shot one of his ears
off, to revenge themselves for his resist
ance, and threatened death to all three If
they ever resisted another train robber.
All this time the passengers were pre-
vented from giving any assistance by one
of the robbers, who guarded them with a
Winchester. After the robbers rode of
