There is no book so cheap as
newspaper, none so interesting, be-
causes 1T consist of variety, measured
out in suitable proportion as to time
and quality. Being new every
week or day it invites to a habit of
reading, and affords an easy and
agreeable mode of acquiring knowl-
edge, so essential to the welfare of
the individual and the community.
1t causes many an hour to pass
away pleasantly and profitably
which would otherwise have been
spent in idleness and mischief. :

Last Saturday J. Barker laid in
wait on the roadside near Peyton,
Boone county, and shot Alt Barker
through the body with rifle. The
trouble was caused by the latter
coaxing the formers wife away from
him. No arrests. There has been
a feud among the Bankers for some
time, and at intervals they have
come together, but not with fatal
effect until Saturday.

a SHOOTING ScRAPE.-On Thurs
day last ex-marshal Hoover, being
somewhat under the influence of
liquor was accosted by Policeman
Smith, and requested to go home;
this angered Hoover, and he struck
Smith, whereupon Smith retaliated
by a lick from a cane, when Hoover
drew revolver, and comenced fir
ing at Smith, who returned the fire.
Nine shots were fired altogether,
five by Hoover, and four by Smith.
Hoover defied arrest that evening,
but Friday morning went before
Justice Boiler and confessed, who
fined him So and cost, and also went
before the Mayor, who assessed a
fine of IS and cost. These things
are to be regretted, and we hope the
town authorities will make it severe
for any repetition of such an offence.
This indiscriminate shooting en-
dangered the lives of innocent citi-
zens. When such occurrences hap
pen again, and citizens who are
called upon by the officer to make
an arrest and refuse, we trust they
will also be dealt with severely.
This town cannot Oxford to have
such lawlessness go on. 1t must be
stopped.

THE NEXT STEP IN EDUCATION,

with that state of chaos which is some
times dignifed by being called ''our
system of higher EDUCATION" is per,

it necessary to unite the legitimate
work of universities with the legitimate
work Of secondary education; our uni
yersities are doing everywhere not a
leges and universities alike are doing
much of the work that should be done,
and indeed is done, in the high schools
and academies. Before any other
movement can be successfully made,
