F." Death Loves a Shining Mark"

These familiar words are forcbly suggested
and emphasized by the death of Ebert E. Morris,
our grandson, and son of DR. G, T. Morris, who
was born july 10, iS75, and died in Paris, Tenn,
June 1, 1891.
1t is usual to eulogize our departed friends, but
we have not language sufficient to do justice to
the life and character of this noble boy Always
obedient, kind and aaectonate; his bright intel
lect, polite department, and happy disposition
endeared him to his school mates and friends
wherever he moved
OH why is it that such a bright and lovely
youth should be taken from his family and
friends, but we must remember that
"God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform.
His purposes viii ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.
Blind, unbelef is sure to err
And sean his works in vain
God is His own interpreter
And He win make it plain."
Farewell, Elbeft, but not forever. Thank God
the gospel assures us that death is not an eternal
sleep, but if we viii live right we viii meet you
again whre there is no more sorrow, no more
pain, no more DEATH nor parting of friends, but
where we viii live forever in our happy home
above Yes thank God
"Faith looks beyond the bounds of Time
When what We now depl0re
Shall rise i'm full immortal prime
Aud bloom 10 fade no more

A Possible Cure For Snake Bite.

It is we'll known to many that
the Indians of Southern California
have very little dread of the bite of
a rattlesnake, as they always have
what they consider sure remedy
at hand. When bitten, they i'm
mediately gather some of the leaves
of the common mock orange-"go-
londrina" of the botonists- vine
which trails on the ground and pro-
duces a gourd which presents an
exact resemblance to the orange.
This vine grows almost everywhere
in Southern California. In appli-
cation, the leaves are macerated
and formed into poultice which is
applied to the wound. The mac
Grated leaves are also placed in
water, and decoction from the
same used freely as a drink. We
have never seen this statement con-
tradicted; neither have we ever
heard of its being verified by any
physician. Here is a chance for
some physician to render possible
service to humanity by experiment.
ing with this plant on some small
animal and reporting the result. If
successful, some way might be de-
vised for preserving the leaves and
preparing a drink which might be
placed upon the shelves OF drug
gists and used in localities where
the plant is not known and does
not grow.-Scienti6c Press.

Can Women Drive Nails?

At the last meeting of the lady
managers of the Columbian Expo
sition it was voted that the presi-
dent of the board, Mrs. Potter Pal
mer, should drive the last nail into
the women's building.
Mrs. J. E. Richards, Montana's
alert snd energetic member of the
ladies board, and wife of Lieuten-
ant Governor Richards, requested
for Montana the honor of furnishing
the nail, the same to be made Of
silver from one of the mines of the
state. A few days ago she received
a reply from Mrs. Palmer accepting
the offer and gracefully thanking
Mrs. Richards for the kindness.
Since then several of her friends
have suggested to Mrs. Richards
the propriety of having the nail
made of copper, silver and gold, the
three metals that have made Mon
tana the wealthy state it now is.
The suggestions have been accepted
and a nail appropriately shaped and
engraved will be ordered and for
warded to Chicago as soon as COM
pleted, to be used in the manner
suggested.-Chicago Inter-O Ocean.

The Tip Custom in England.

The question of tipping servants
in country houses in England is be-
ing ventilated in the London Gentle
woman. A correspondent vouches
for the following:
"a niece of mine stayed q week
with an aunt. On leaving she was
asked, What are you going to give
the servants?' 'Oh, aunt, / am
afraid l can't afford much but 4
chilling to the housemaid and =
shilling to the parlormaid, for you
know, aunt, l always wait upon
myself and give very little, if any,
extra trouble Yes, my dear, but
give them each half Z crown, and
here are three shillings more for it, ,
oh, how kind of you, dear aunt
But what are you giving to my
cook?" Il WAS not intending to
give her anything. But you must,
my dear; give her half : crown,
and here 10 another to add - Il. /
like her to be dealt literally With,
or she would leave.'"

A Girls Wild Ride.

Miss Cora Arledge, a young girl
IA years of age, with her father, ar
rived in town last night from the
forests Of the West and from the
Big Horn basin. Miss Arledge met
with most serious and remarkable
accident at her home recently. Her
father is a ranchman in the Big
Horn basin, and one day last week
cowboy rode up to his ranch on
young horse that he was break
ing. In a spirit of jest he dared
Miss Cora to ride the horse, when,
without thought, she vaulted into
the saddle, throwing her leg around
the horn, and the horse started in
to bucking and pitching at furious
rate, but she stuck to him, quieting
him every jump. Then the horse
began to run and ran for two full
hours over the prairie, with Miss
Arledge hanging to the reins and
three cowboys in hot pursuit.
One of them at last succeeded in
lassoing the frightened animal and
gradually brought it to standstill.
Miss Arledge was told to get off,
but she answered that she could
not, and just then the horse made
another pluge, broke the lasso and
started again on its wild career. 1t
ran for over twenty miles and then
dropped dead, and it's daring rider
was found unconscious by its side.
At first it was thought that her leg
was broken, as she did not appear
to have the use of it, but upon an
investigation it was found that no
bones were broken. but the muscles
of her right leg, from the long and
severe strain in holding to the horn
of the saddle, had lost their power,
and her leg hangs limp and useless
She was sent to Omaha for treat
ment.-Corr. Denver News.

Coffee and Tea.

People are continually calling at
the grocers for Mocha coffee, and
many will take no other. AS mat
ter of fact there are probably not
500 people in the United States who
have ever tasted real Mocha, and l
do not believe there is a single
pound of it to be found between the
Atlantic and Pacific. The Arabs of
Arabia, not those of Africa, are the
most fastidious coffee-drinkers in
the world, and the crop of Mocha
is not large. The governors and
shieks get the pick, the finest and
plumpest berries being chosen for
them. The rich Arabs get the second
choice. The rest is sold throughout
the country and a very little, con-
sisting of the shriveled and broken
berries, finds its way to CONSTANT
nople. Not a hundredweight year
gets west of that city. What is
called Mocha consists of inferior
Arabian growths, at least a little
of it does, and coffee from Cey-
lon and Java, a most inferior
kind. Americans never see the best
tea. None of the finest growth ever
leaves China, and the best of the
export goes overland to Russia, be-
ing known as caravan tea." Some
of this retails as high as $50 a
pound. True caravan tea is never
brought to this country, as it is be-
lieved that a sea voyage affects its
flavor. Some of the Ceylon tea
ranks as high as the best Chinese
growth. A pound of what is known
as "golden tip" grown on a famous
estate in Ceylon, was recently sold
in London for $135 pound.-New
York Letter.

A VALUABLE HEAD.
A Wonderful Incident in the Life
OF Tom Starr.

The remarkable career of old Tom
Starr, the notorious Cherokee des.
perado, which has lately appeared
in print, recalls an incident in his
life, the plainest statement of which
sounds like romance. Bill West
was old Toms brother-in-law, and
the most powerful man in his day
in the Cherokee nation. A blow
from his fist was as deadly as a
Winchester bullet. With this for.
midable weapon he killed several
men, and a law was passed declar-
ing Bills fist a deadly weapon. Old
Tom and Bill had been close com
panions, but one day they quarreled
over the division of the spoils of a
plundering expedition. West struck
at Starr, but the willy savage lodged
the blow and at the same time deity
placed long, keen knife blade be-
tween the formers ribs. This was
the tragic end of Bill West. At this
time there was a reward of $2OOC
offered for Vests head and 5000
for that of Starr. Old Tom was in
need of ready cash and determined
to run the risk Of losing his own
head by trying to secure the reward
on that of his brother-in-law. So
after killing West, he cut off his
head, put it in gunny bag and
proceeded to Tahlequah, the capi.
tai, where he presented his CORY
charge to the chief, with the proo1
that it was the right head, and de
manded the reward. The chief and
the treasurer are both old men, anc
they knew old Toms reputation
They also knew that the reward or
Vests head was only $4,000, while
that for old Toms was $4,000. Blu
Starr was there himself and mean
business. At the muzzle Of a six
shooter the treasurer forked ovel
the $4,000, and old Tom departed
with the money, to the delight ant
astonishment Of the people of Tab
lequah, without killing singh
person.-Globe- Democrat.
