A UsefuI Electric Plant.

The New York Engineering Rec
ord says that, according to one of
the foreign journals, a German cleo
trio company has constructed port
able light outfit for use at places
where a permanent plant would be
out of the question. The outfit con-
sists of a heavy truck carrying an
upright boiler, engine and dynamo,
covered to protect them from the
weather. The ceiling of the cab is
arranged to hold 1000 candle power
arc lamps. A complete outfit of
wires, insulator, lamp carbons and
all necessary tools for erecting and
maintaining short temporary line
are part of the equipment. Port
able outfits of this kind are by no
means uncommon in the United
States, and are used by some of the
railroad companies.

AN INTERRsTINa CASE.

The case Of r. NJ. King of Ten.
nessee, which has attracted such
widespread attention for tile lsst
year, has just been tried on appeal
in the Federal Court at Memphis,
Tenn.J Judge Hammond prcsi-
ding. 1t will be remembered that
Mr.. King, who is a seventh day
observer, after resting on Saturday,
plowed corn IN his field on Sunday,
for which the court Of his county
fined him s75 and costs. by the
advice and help Of the National
Religious Liberty Association, Of
Which Mr.. King is q member, he
appealed his case to the Supreme
Court OF the State, which affirmed
the decision Of the lower court.
On the refusal of Mr. King TO
pay the fine assessed, he was placed
in Jail, but was released on a writ
Of ha5cas corpus, which was made
returnable in the United States
District Court at memphis; Tenn,
the second Monday in January,
1891. In the mean time, the Re-
ligieus Liberty Association secured
the services Of Hon. Don M. Dick
inson Of Detroit, Mich. to assist
in the case, with the design Of car
rying it, II possible, TO tile Supreme
Court Of the United States, there
TO test the constitutionality of Sun
day laws In the various States Of
the Union.
The argument Of tho case has
just been concluded in the Federal
Court, but the Judge reserved his
decision, which will probably be
handed down in few days. The
decision will be anxiously looked
FOR By many, as it will be one
which will materially affect the op-
GRAFTON Of Sunday laws in that Ju-
dicial District, and probably in aDl
parts Of the United Sfates

I've been out TO my unclcs
AZ the dear old country fatm,
Where they sent me for the summer
To keep me clear OF harm.
I'm As freokled as q turkey egg
Ana as happy AS a clam,
With an sppstite that dotes upon
The sdasgy end of ham.
I've revelet In the hay felds
And tossed amid the corn;
Two wrestlsd with the bramblss
TIL my dresses all ale torn.
I've inspected dusty haymow-.
Where the hens have hid their nests,
And been chased by horrid hornets
And other cnterprising pests.
I've firted with the brindis bull.
And as a consequence
Rave learned to scale with prcmptness
Tho tallsst pasture fence.
With bent pihs caught the minnows
Inths siisory, purling brook.
And from the teening apple trees
TIE unripe fruit shook
Pull many an unripe apple
Did my indiscretlon hide.
And gorgeous palms resulted.
To my much provoked inside.
to water rode the horses.
And they dumped me In the drink,
So many falls I've Cautured
That IL hurts mo now 70 think.
Dut the film had was endless
And tho days were like charm,
That spent this happy Summer
At my uncle's country fern
But my heart I've left behind ms
At that dear old country farm.
They forgot my handsome cousin
when they deemed me safe from harm.
