In doing 50 he moved his revolver,
which he had placed there, and Mr..
Bohning, who was sitting on the
side Of the bed, asked Lee to let
him see it. He took the revolver
in his hand, and saw, ~ he sup
posed, that the barrels were
empty, and then he tried the trig-
ger and the pistol went OF. In the
meantime his wife had returned
with tho backing brush, and stoop-
ed down to pick up her husband's
shoes, just In time to receive the
bullet from the pistol, which enter
cd her back near the shoulder blade. |
Mrs Booming looked At her hus-
band and said, s'Peter, what are
you doing" then reeled and feel
on the floor corpse. Mr.. Bohn-
ing fell back on the bed when the |
pistol went OF, and was overcome
with gr,ef when he saw the terrible
effect Of the accident.
The deceased was to have left
With her husband Wednesday morn
ing for the city, and proceed from
there to Pennington, Miss where
his vessel is now lying, il order to
be With him during his short stay

The Bunkie Blade SAYS that the
school affairs Of Avoyelles are in 9
deplorable condition. Only one
ward in the parish has opened pub
lie school. This is indeed q bad
state Of affairs. The Blade says:
These people are compelled to
pay taxes, and many of them ara
too poor to send their children 10 a
private school. Justic, demands
that All explanation be made to the
public by the school board. This
Is matter bearing directly upon
the general welfare and prosperity
Of the parish, and one in which We
are sorry to say, We are behind
every parish in the State.
Avoyelles parish can hardly re-
sort to an additional exaction upon
the people in order to provide for
schools for the children Of the mass
es, for everything that Is taxable is
already weighted down with the
multiple levee district tax, in ad-
dition to those for ordinanary State
and parish purposes. The ''anti"
orators should afford relief from
those sample funds" which they
boast are lying around loose some
where.-City Item.
The above applies equally As we'll
to St. Tammany parish. We only
know Of one public school open this
year, aud that 10 a small school in
the Second Ward.

ignorance Of how a lace curtain should
be Numbered the knowledge is worth
acquiring. The washers Of nice lace
form a class of labor quite by them
selves, and few people have an idea Of
the amount Of labor involved in the
cleansing operation, and of the skill
and knowledge required. The labor,
Of course, comes in chiefly in drying, for
the washing is but a simple thing in
comparison.
4 table is cushioned and covered
closely with a spotless cloth, and on
this the lace is stretched with an intri
cate care that is amazing. Through
every mesh a pin is placed TO hold it in
place, AID the whole pattern is thus
pricked out till every leaf and spray
and sprig is firmly fastened, so that it
cannot shrivel or contract, a whole day
being sometimes used up in preparing a
single yard of the lace, 50 that when
dry it is lifted off soft and perfect and
unimpaired in the design.-Dry Goods

The listener observed a very curious
and interesting thing the other night.
He had occasion TO wait for an evening
train in a Columbus venue station. As
he entered and sat down there were al
ready eight men and two women sit
ting on the benches, and having moth
ing better 10 do the listener noticed
that every one Of the men had his left
leg crossed over his right knee, while it
was sufficiently apparent that in the
Ease of the two ladies this state Of
things was exactly reversed. As the
Estener was meditating upon the reason
for this curious circumstance a lady
and gentleman entered and sat down,
and Immediately the gentleman put
his left leg over his right knee, while
the lady joined her sisters in the room
IN exactly their attitude.
By and by more men came and
more, and every one of them put his
left leg over his right knee, until there
were actually seventeen men sitting in
that position in the little waiting room
Only one more lady came, but she, too.
followed exactly the example Of the
other Seventeen men and
four women in one room, all with one
knee over the other. but the women's
and the mems crossed in reversed di-
rections. Is there any physiologist
who can explain why this should be so

On meeting strangers.
What a relief for we knew there was
nov food aud rest for our starving and
worn OUT people. We hurried on, and
Hon emerged from the interminable,
hateful bush and came into great fields
of rice and Indian corn, and at b
other end Of the clearing, almost a mile
distant. we could see the Arab village.
This one clearing alone must have been
500 acres in extent. On reaching il we
found Stanley seated on an antelope
skin in the veranda of the chiefs house,
while all the people, men, women n
children. had crowded around 70 hear
our story.
The chiefs name was khamis; he
was a Manyema and a slave of a Ian
Eibar Arab named Abed ben Salim,
whose bloody deeds were a theme Of
conversation in the baZar of Zanzi-
bar. He was now on a pilgrimage TO
Mecca, but before starting had dis
patched Khamis and a large number Of
Manyema slaves. armed with percus-
siOn guns, in search of slaves and
ivory.

There has been discovered about half
a mile west of the Bargytown lodges a
twirling stone of about five tons weight.
1t has always been regarded as a bowl
der. and from the way it is poised on
the rock beneath it no one could see
Why it should not rock. Hundreds
have tried TO rock it in vain, and the
surprise Of the ma who first felt it
move under pressure may be better
imagined than described. II mOves

informs us, round as if it was placed

A couple of gentlemen driving in
Bloomfield had their attention at
eacted to a field near the roadside,
where a couple of crows were engaged
in what looked like a deadly conflict.
The birds flew at each other ~terriically,
coming together with a sound that
could be heard fOE.rods away, the
feathers the while flying through the
air and over the snow. Finally they
elinched, seemingly by the beaks OF
upon each others peck, and they hung
on like a couple of bulldogs, turning
over and over as they houndered about.
Their angry screeches finally attracted
a flock Of crows which were lettering in
the nearby wood, and these fellows
took a hand. some fighting one and
some the other, until the combatants
separated. One of the birds was com
pletely winded and might easily have
been caught. but he must have rallied,
rs when the party returned cityward
only the feathers were left TO mark
the scene of the struggle.-Hartford

Thomas Creamer. an eX-tramp, says:
II think that tramps are never so hap
py as when having what they call a
turkey roast IL consists simply OF
this: When they steal a chicken or hen
they carry il into camp with its neck
well wrung and at once prepare a fire.
The fowl is first well coated with soft
mud and poised on a couple Of sticks
over the fire and allowed to dry. In
fact. the bake is not taken down IN
til the mad has been well burned, after
which il is cracked open. The feathers
adhere TO the mud, leaving the chicken
nicely cooked. The division then fol
lows and no lords ever enjoyed a ban
quet as do they. Turkey roasts' are
most frequent in the spring and fall,
simply because fowl are easier 10 get"
