GENERAL NEWS.


Thomas Thurm an, Joe Zins, Miss
Edith Zins, Miss Catharina Cox and
Miss Kate Riddell, were out floating
down the Ohio river at Cincinnati In
yawl last Friday night, enjoying the
river breeze, when suddenly the people
on the shore heard the screams OF
women, and divining the cause put out
to the rescue. An empty yawl, mans
hat, girls bonnet and two handker-
chiefs were all they found. The yawi
had been struck by the barge OF tow
boat, and the treacherous river was the
grave of five people whose hearts but
minute before beat light with hope and
joy.
Frank Melbourne, the Australian in
ventor of the alleged rain machine,
with which he claims to have caused
frequent and heavy rainstOrms in Can
ton, o., in tho last month, has arranged
for a public test next Tuesday. he
will, he says, cause rain TO fall over
10000 square miles. The government
authorities have invited the inventor to
Kansas to experiment.
At Peoria Illinois some time ago
ROYAL Frisby received a notice, signed
aSociety of Justice" and bearing a
skull and cross bones, giving him warn
ing that he was to be killed. Yesterday
morning his body was found on his
farm riddIed with shot. The notice Is
not believed to have been sent by
White Caps, but by friends of his d.
vorced wife. Frisby married Mrs.
Carter, of Marshall County. 1t IS
charged that he spent her fortune. He
also secured a divorce and married hei
daughter. This gave rise to bitter feel
ings which is believed to have culmi-
mated in his death.

nutable white men whose statements
were published.

THE influence of u smart woman
over a man, is just simply wonderful
A good woman can make him, a hac
woman can ruin him. No man hat
any respect for bad woman, and yet
men whom the world has called great,
have followed and been led to their
ruin by them. 1t was Delilah who
sheared Sampson of his locks, and II
was Mrs. O'Shea who led Charles
Stewart Parnell down, down, down,
until he was weak and low enough to
become her husband. Think OF him
as he was, proud, imperious, aggres-
siye, and watch his furtive glances a.
he rises with the sun while his neigh
bors are yet asleep and hurries to
country Registrar to meet and marry
a divorced wife, a disgraced mother,
a shameless, fallen woman. What a
mockery of marriage! They should
both be ostracised from the society OF
decent folks.

other Alliance fallacies. The Pro-
gressiUe Farmer is the property OF
Gel. L. L. Polk, the President OF the
national organization, aud Mr.. Cade
was selected as the editor by Mr..
Polk on account of his peculiar ht-

WRITING on the "Way to get
Money" David Stone, in the July
Forum, says: 1.-THE man who wants
more money will find no royal road to
the wealth he cOvets, no patent
method for it's acquisition. He must
rive something for it to make 1t
honestly his own, and the man who
acts himself earnestly to do this will
find that all financial systems will
bend to his cOnquering will. The
rambler, whether he plays his game
in the exchange, at a faro table, in a
policy-shOp, or with smaller stakes IN
private circles at baccarat and pro-
grsssive euchre, will find the issue
precsriOus and unrewarding. the
way to get more money without any
loss OF peace or self-respect is to earn
it by toll of brain or sinew, and the
funds thus acquired have no gnawing
teeth. All other wealth eats like q
eanker.n

THE wheat crop is large, the sample
fine, but the p'ice low. When q
farmer brings his mule to town II he
is not offered what it Is worth, he
takes it tack home with him and
waits for the market. The sa ne rule
ought to prevail with his wheat. A
farmer ought to study the market
and sell all of his crops at the season
when they command the best prices.
1t is cheaper to borrow money at IL
per cent than to sell wheat now at
20 cents that in December or January
will bring one dollar a bushel. Some
of our mills, perhaps all OF them, will
store wheat for nothing, and with
this advantage the farmers OF Maury
ought to be able TO wait for the
market.
