The Use of Metaphor.

A speaker who attempts to use nauti-
cal metaphors should be thoroughly
familiar with the sea and the working
of a ship or he will strand his speech.
A Clergyman was supplying pulpit by
the seaside. Thinking to impress the
truth more distinctly upon the congre-
cation. many OF whom were seamen,
he drew the figure of a ship trying to
enter harbor against head wind.
Unfortunately for the success of his
metaphor. he knew little of seaman
ship. After putting the ship into sew
eral singular positions. he cried out in
a voice intended to be emphatic:

A DRAWING-MAsTER IN TROUBLE.
L. F. Shuford, who was arrested and
committed to Jail here by Magistrate Eas-
terlin of High Springs. on the charge Of
assaulting one Of his pupils in drawing, was
interviewed by your correspondent yester-
day. He expressed wish that the News
would do him the jnstice to say that he in
dIgnantly denies the charge She herself
admitted under oath that after she had
been assaulted, she visited and received les
sons from Mr.. Shuford on three subsequent
occasions, and that she also subsequently
invited him to a sociable and to
take breakfast at her fathers house.
Another affidavit has been made by Miss
Robertson of High Springs and warrant
issued upon the same for Shuford, charging
him with an assault upon her also. The
case was to have been tried here yesterday
at 10 a. m, but the prosecutors did not put
10 an appearance. Shuford made oath be-
fore Justice Easterlin that he could not get a
fair trial in his bailiwick, but TO this East
erlin gave no heed. Upon this ground Shu-
ford will ask to be brought before Judge
Finley OF the circuit court, the offense being
a felony, upon a writ Of habeas corpus, and
ask that the action Of Justice Easterlin be
set aside and an examination given him at
Gainesville. He Is from Whigham, Ga, and
no charge has ever been brought against
him before. All the parties are white, and
the father of the girl is well to do and has

DIssIPATED CONNECTICUT COWS
Sad Experience of the President Of the
PrOhibitory Legislation Society.
From the Ne1o York Tribune.


From the Ne1O York Tribune.
While the most advanced Connecticut re-
formers are denouncing dogs it would seem
that they ought to include their COWS. The
best thinkers of the Nutmeg state now class
the owning of dog with the use of strong
drink, but no Connecticut dog has ever
been reported drunk and disorderly, while
this is precisely the news which comes from
the Connecticut cows. Long association
with Connecticut men has demoralized the
COWS at last, and they have taken to rum
AS everybody knows, this is good sea-
son for apples. Thousands of bushels of
this fruit are scattered about on the ground
in the orchards all over the state. Now,
these apples, being dumb, inanimate things,
and not understanding what q pernicious
substance alcohol is, and still less, OF course
being unable to realize that there are very
proper laws against alcohoi-these poor ap-
PIES we say, have largely turned into cider
of an excellent but highly Intoxicating
quality. They have looked Innocent as they
lay on the ground, but in reality each has
been a sorG of an alcohol dumpling ready
to bite like serpent and sting like an adder
To these apples the low Connecticut
cows have turned and actually made men
of themselves. The other day a cow be-
longing to Mr.. Hanson of North Haven
went out in the orchard and began eating
apples. She was soon staggering about and
making sickening spectacle Of herself, es-
peceially for several young calves that were
in a neighboring lot. AT last she stumbled
against fence and broke her leg, and a
state humane agent came along and shot
her. Yet. If you will believe it, those very
calves that had seen it all, the next day
themselves got drunk and tried to play leap
frog. Thus we see the fatal example OF the
dronkard.
But an even worse case is reported. AS
the reader may know, A. J. Doughty of
Southtield is n strong advocate of total abb
stinence aud president of the Connecticut
Society for the Promotion of Prohibitory
Legislation. One day last week his cows
went on e tear in the orchard. They had a
wild time all the afternoon, bellowing, kick
ing at the treetops, running foot races, fight
ing, etc, but were pretty well sobered up
when they came in at night SO that the
stableman suspected nothing and MIXED
them as usual. Now, the fact is, a large
part of the alcohol had gone into the milk.
1t happens that Mr.. Doughty is fond
of milk, and that night at supper he called

people present, and he embraced the oppor-

WASHINGTON, Jan. l5.-Mr Holman had
under serious consideration yesterday the
advisability Of Withdrawing his resolution
declaratory of the sense of the House on

its wording less stringent. The opposition
which developed to the resolution was
unexpected by Mr.. Holman, who had

Mr.. Holman found, however, that the
detection was not as serious as had been
feared, and that the proposed amendment
to the resolution would rob it of much of
its force, and permit in the future a very
liberal construction of its purport as applied
TO specific objects. 1t is thought that even
