CANNIBALISM.

The doctrine of heredity has long
been of interest to students of med
ical science in particular, and al
thinking people in general way.
The instance of youthful cannibal-
ism which recently took place in
Georgia can only be attributed to the
inherited taste of the little negros
for human flesh.
Perhaps four generations back
their naked ancestors killed and ate
some unfori innate missionary in the
wilds of Africa and hankered for
more. The taste remained latent all
these years to at last develops in the
persons of two children, Mark and
Lena, aged eleven and nlne years.
These little fends were left by
their mother in charge of the nine
months old baby. Mark, it seems,
soon after the mother left, killed
and mangled the baby with an axe;
then he took fork and gouged out
the eyes of the little one, which
he roated, and taking slice of flesh
out of either jaw of the dead child,
he and his sister sat themselves down
and devoured the flesh.

DEAR Ma: Harrison has
never done a thing for the West, and
if any man knows of reason Why the
people of Colorado should aid in Sc
curing his denomination | should
like to have him tell what it Is. |
do not believe he has ever said he
was in favor of the coinage of the
American silver product; do not
believe he would sign such a bill if it
passed | have consulted Allison,
Morrell and Sherman and other op-
ponents of free coinage, and they say
they will rfot support free coinage
of silver, and Allison, and Sherman
said they would rather support free
coinage than the free coinage of the
American product. They said |
might use their names in connection
with this matter.
We could not hope to secure
single snti>free coinage man for
the free coinage of the Ameri-
can product unless it is War
ron of Wyoming, and We would lose
the votes of all the Southern silver
men and | think all the silver men
outside of the silver rroducins States.
Bnt if the President is favorable to
such bill it cannot pass the House
of Representatives and could not
even secure report from the Com
mittee on Coinage in the House.
Talk of the free coinage of the
American product is all bosh, and
if we do not get the free coinage of
all silver we will get nothing. The
free coinage of silver would add
to the value of Colorado's annual
output of silver not less than S,000,-
600 per year. We can pass fres
coinage bill through Congress, but
we know that it cannot become a
law while Harrison is President; yet |
such is the cowardice or party zeal
that men who fully recognize the
great importance of the silver ques-
ton abandon it rather than antagon-
ize the proposed nomination of a
candidate that they think has che
lead in the Presidential race. 1t
cannot be because it is supposed that
he is especially strong, for his most
ardent supporters admit that he is
not as strong as some other cardi
dates. This expression in his favor,
in my opinion, arises out of desire
to be with the winning party, and
partly, because it is thought that it
is not good policy to say anything
against possible candidate.

President Buffers Address.

Mr.. Marion Bntler, President OF the
State Farmers Alliance, delivered An ad-
dress at Williams Bali last Friday and,
despite the fact that the weather was very
disagreeable, be had good audience, in
Guiding several ladies and number OF the
business mon OF the city.
Mr.. Butler spoke for something over
three hours, and his line of thought en-
braced graphic picture of the accumula-
tion of wealth at money centres, . par
allel between the wealth producer and the
wealth-accumulator, comparison Of the
absolute and relative wealth creator, and
remarkably lucid and well.considered
exposition of the duty Of Congress to con
troll the instruments of commerce on the
telegraph, interstate transportation and
the currency of the country.
Mr.. Butler has plainly given much study
and painstsking attention to the vital is
sues which naturally challenge his inter
est az patriotic citizen, and which come
within his purview as the chief officer of
great organization in the State-snd b.
discu sses these issues in . broad and cath

4 Bonnet Party.

A very charming Bonnet Party"
was given last Thursday evening BY Mrs.
DR.. ftevens, in honor Of her guest. Miss
Matte Hadley, Of Wilson, who has been
visiting her for several days. The deft and
skillful manipulation of the digitals of the
young gentlemen quickly enabled. them
to present their Aonnets, fully trimmed
and ready for inspection. The genial
Capt. Hodges, of Wilson adorned the oc-
casion with his good looks and equally
good judgment and rendered his decis-
sion on the merits of the work.
To Mr.. Preston Stevens was accredited
the glory of victory and the prize for
the best trimmed bonnet WAS awarded
him by the able arbiter.
Mr.. Albert Beaman distinguished him
self no less abundantly, but, having been
somewhat unfortunate in his selection Of
a model-it is presumed, from its ap'
pearance, that the style was south Afri
can-he was decided to be the least sue
cessful of the aspirants and was the re-
cipient of the handsome BOBBY prize.
The guests, after RECALLING themselves
from delicate AID delightful menu, de-
parted with many pleasant memories Of
Mrs. Stevens hospitality and Miss Had
lsy's charms.

Miss Mamie Highsm'th. Her death was
greatly lamented by all that knew her.
She had been sufferer for about four

she was called to 60, and departed this
life in perfect ease. The funeral GER

ing and consoling sermon was preached
by Rev. Love Cubreth. The remains
were then conveyed to their last resting
place. Messrs J. W. White, Thomas
Owens. G. T. McLanb, r. Bltler, Rich

A Curiosity.

Allex Rhodes, a Colored servant OF DR..
L. NcKinnon, showed US the other day
something that is to say the least of it,
remarkable. Within the liver of beef,
which when slaughter ed, was apparent
ly perfectly healthy, was imbedded the
greater part OF a peanut, and from the
appearance Of tho aperture, which it
made, it must have been there for some
time. The shape of the peanut was pre-
served perfectly, and We think that an
investigation might prove of interest and
benefit to science.
