The Southern Alliance Farmer:
Suppose member of the church
would consort with sinners. and at
every opportunity proclaim the fact
that religion is on the down grade,
and that the day is not far distant
when every tabernacle of God in the
country will be closed That the
church, as first organized. was right;
but the preachers are all hypocrites
and since they have got to meddling
with the affairs OF sinners and saying
that man must believe and be hap.
tised before he can be saved, it is high
time that it went to pieces! Now,
would you not denounce that so-called
church man as wolf in sleeps cloth
ing, and decide that the sooner he is
dismissed the better? Would you not
say that if he can not believe In the
creed of the church, and have proper
respect for its officers he has no bust
ness to claim membership? This is
just the way with those Alliancemen
who are consorting with politicians
and enemies to our order who delight
to abuse and SANDER our leaders and
ridicule the Ocala platform. They
have no more business in the Alliance
than has scoffer at religion or an
infidel in a Christian church.. You
can always tell man by the company
he keeps and when you find an Al
lianceman cheek by jowl with the old
town politicians you may just set him
down as an enemy to the Alliance at
heart

MADAM, said the street car conductor
to young lady in a blue calico frock,
''you have o dog under your shawl, auG
you must leave the car.
WHAT Leave the carl" vociferated
the woman. IL have paid my fare and
I'm going to stick right where l am"
"Then / shall put you off," replied the
1isciplinarian in blue.
All at once a law point came into the
womans head. "Give me back my
fare" she said, IL got in here in good
faith, and when l paid my five cents q
contract was completed. You must
either carry it out or return my cash.
I'm not responsible because your cranky
directors don't like dogs"
The street car official stopped the car
and hailed a policeman. The point was
stated, and the thief catcher, after pom
dering for q few moments, observed;
81 amt no judge nor / amt no jury,
but l claim to have some sense.
"Under your system you might make
rules that passengers mustn't wear red
neckties or red noses or three dollar
trousers, and after they had paid fares
show 'em the rules and put them Off
"There is no end to the rules you
might make to buulSo folks out Of their
ride, and every time a chap looked cross
eyed you could turn to rule No. 1924,
providing that he mustn't look crosseyed

Two visitors to Trinity churchyard, in
lower Broadway, attracted a large share
of public attention Wednesday after
noon. One was a well dressed blind
man and the other was a boy of sixteen
or eighteen years of age, probably a rel
ative Of the blind man. The boy led his
sightless companion to the grass bor-
dered slab that bears the name Of Char
lotte Temple Dropping on his knees at
the side Of the grave the blind man
passed his hands eagerly over the face
Of the stone and an expression Of SUI
preme qualification came into his coun-
tenance when his fingers touched the
sunken letters of the name. The boy
called his attention to that part Of the
slab from which all of the original in
scription except the name is said to have
been cut
There is hollow place there at least
IL inches deep. 1t forms a basin to catch
water for the birds to drink and bathe
in. 1t was nearly full Of water on
Wednesday afternoon, and the blind
man dabbled in the little pool gently.
He lowered over the grave for several
minutes, and became an object Of curl
Gus interest to at least II hundred per-
sons who stood on the sidewall; and
watched him through Lee fence. New

If the portrait of some grandam who
lived in the early days of the century
could 'materialize, and, stepping down,
take her place beside the tailor made
girl" of today, the difference would be
no more marked than that between the
good ship Constitution and a modern
ocean greyhound" Nevertheless, in
spite of the topheaviness Of the old ship
as compared with the new, if the two
sailed down our harbor there would be
no necessity for an order of "Hats off D"
and our heartbeats would tell us for
which rang out the "three times three"
Well does this great foremother of
ours command both love and reverence.
Stanch was she with the strength of oak
from the forest primeval; unwavering
ever as the pole star in the path of duty,
and like a true woman Of the olden
time, ere rights and suffrage" had
lifted their heads from the neither chaos,
she obeyed her master, while he, true
and brave man of the olden time that he
was, loved and honored her,-Jane de
Forest Shelton in Harpers.

1t will be remembered that Mr..
Whymper, who had a severe succession
Of falls once in the Alps, without losing
his consciousness, declares emphatically
that as he bounded from one rock to an
other he felt absolutely no pain. The
same thing happens on the battlefield;
the entrance of the ballet into the body
is not felt, and it is not till he feels the
blood flowing OF a limb parulyzed that
the soldier knows he is wounded.
Persons who have had several limbs
broken by fall do not know which limb
is broken till they try 10 rise. At the
moment Of a fall the whole intellectual
activity is increased TO an extraordinary
degree. There is not a trace Of anxiety.
One considers quickly what win happen.
This is by no means the consequence of
presence Of mind" it is rather the
product Of absolute necessity. A solemn
composure takes possession Of the vic
tim. Death by fall is a beautiful one
Great thoughts FIJI the victims soul;
they fall painlessly into a great blue sky.

Amos Lane is at work ON an invention
which cannot fail to be one of the at.
fractions of the town when completed.
1t consists Of a large clock, the figures
of which can be seen from the hotel, the
motive power for which will be the
ever boiling geyser. The clock will be
erected in some spot where it will be
prominent. The geyser bubbles and
rises every thirty-eight seconds, as regu-
lar as clockwork would require, and
every time it does so it will raise lever
that will move the clock exactly thirty.

There are two ways of preparing tea
in Cashmere. The first is to put the tea
in pot with cold water and boil it for
half an hour, when more cold water is
added, after which it is boiled for
another half hour. Milk is then added
and it is ready for drinking. The second
is to place the tea in pot with a little
soda and water, and boil it for half an
hour as before, Milk, salt and butter
are then added, after which it is boiled
for another half hour, when it is ready.

The reins changed from right to left
as he entered the mist, ana his right fell
upon the protruding butt Of a revolver

The government is planting at
Washington, beds which will be de-
voted to depicting, in flowers, the va
rious designs representative of the
badges worn by the different corps,
from 81 to '65. The most conspicu-
Gus or central design will be the g.
A. R. badge with flag and pendant
star, crossed cannon and musket
worked out carefully in flowers that
will duplicate all the original colors
precisely. The bed is to be sixty feet
long and fifteen feet wide. Some Of
the designs are more simple, but 9th
ers are very intricate and the artistic
skill of the gardener will be taxed to
the highest degree.
