obituary.

blbD -OaVuiudy NAY ~, 1857,
Laura, wife of Mr.. s. f. Kirksey, at
their home on the corner of Fourteenth
and Austin avenue.
Mrs, Kirksey was born in May
field, Kentucky, and was thirty-two
years of age at her death. She was
daughter of DR.. Landrum who was
co nstantly at her bed side for the past
five weeks. The writer of this was an
intimate friend of her family in Ken.
lucky.
Mrs. Kirksey's friends and relatives
in May field will remember her as the
bright, pretty young woman presiding
at the organ in the Christian church
in that Town. She was an ardent
member of that church. Faithfully
performing all the duties connected
with the church as one who loved and
feared the Lord.
When she came to Waco she entered
into the work with the same noble
spirit. la every thing that had
christian tendency she always went
ahead and said "follow me" She
made good friends on every hand, the
rich and the poor alike, as fully at.
tested by the large concourse of friends
at the last sad rite. 1t was one of the
largest funerals ever seen in Waco. 1t
was sense of feeling and profound
sympathy that called out the large
gathering of people. Her last severe
spell lasted five weeks. At times she
would rally and the prospects for her
recovery looked brighter. Every day
scores of friends visited her home to
enquire after her and lend their as.
slstance in whatever their services
were required. DIR. Lsndrum and her
husband, MIR. Kirksey, in converse.
ton with the writer could not find
words to express their heartfelt thanks
for the inestimable services and kind
consideration on the part of these
friends. She was always ready to die
aud during her long illness not moan
escaped her lips but she bore her suf-
fering with that christian fortitude
that characterized her evIey act in life,
aud even up to her last moments she
was conscious of all that was going on
around her. Merely passing her
hands gently over her eyes, calmly
crossing them over her breast and
without moan or struggle passed
over the river to that bright beyond
where al angle mother stood to greet
and the heavenly host to welcome her
to the mansion already prepared.
She leaves to mourn her departure a
husba who has been more than
faithful, little son who is just old
enough to fully appreciate a true
mothers love and relatives and friends
without number. Ana may God in
his initiate mercy and grace tighten
their hearts in this their hour of sad
ness. PARK HEAToN.

The Annle Blossom Meerll.

The British Board of Agriculture is
endcavoring TO arouse the apple grow
ers of England to initiate their French
competitors and take combined action
against the apple blossom wcevil,
which has done incredible damage to
apple crops in recent years The raw
ages of this minute insect are often
enormously attributed to the cast wind
or late frosts, and even when the true
nature of evil i recognized it is use
less for one cullivator TO incur the
trouble and expense to remove it if
his neighbors allow it to increase and
multiply i'll security all around. One
weevil, it is said, will lay twenty
eggs, placing one only in each bud of
an apple blossom, there to be Matched
and nourished upon the fruitful por-
ton of the flower to the destruction
of all hope of apples. In France
apple growers in village form an
association. and, seizing an appropri-
ate moment, make a combined raid on
the invaders of all the trees in tho
parish. n one orchard of about eight
acres, sc--esssst thousands of wcnv,ls
were shaken from the trees and de-
stroyed, and satisfactory crop of
apples afterward was obtained.

A BOy COlOnist.

The colonial fever has seized all the
German nation SO thoroughly that
even schoolboys are infected with it.
John w ke", boy of twelve, was
seized with tho fever and ran away
from his home in the city of Bremen
in August last. lie travelled OH foot
southwestward, saw the cities along
the Rhine and crossed the river going
westward to Paris. From there lie
wandered south all the way through
France, crossed the vast mountain
range of the Pyrenoes in the cold sea-
son, when the whole landscape is
covered with ice and deep snow, and
arrived in Barcelona in Spain toward
New Year. The cold in the noun
tains had caused him SO much suffer
ing that lie was rather afraid with
his tattered clothing that failed to
cover his nakedness, 10 continue his
journey at random. He went to the
German consul and made close in
quires concerning tho best road TO
30 to CAMERON which is q German
colony on the western coast Of
Africa, north of the British possess
sions. The queer inquiry regard
ing a road for walking across
the desert of Sahara was too much for
the consul. lie examined the little
tramp and afterward pretended that
he would show him the road, and took
him to the steamer bound for Ham
burg in Germany. lie gave him in
custody 10 the captain, who took him
back to the fatherland. Johns parents
had believed him dead and were over

was sorry to be compelled to go to
school again, but as soon as he had
finished his studies lie would most
assurcdly leave again for distant Cam

The Medding.Ri Finger.

There are facts connected with the
ring finger, remarks an obscrvant NOR
alist, which render it in a peculiar
manner an appropriate emblem of
matrimonial union. 1t is the only
finger where two principal nerves be-
long to two distinct trunks. The
thumb is supplied with its principal
nerves from the radial nerve, as are
also the fore finger, the middle finger
and the thumb side of the third or
ring finger, while the ulnar nerve fur
nishes the little finger and che other
side of the third or ring finger, at the
extremity of which the two nerves are
ioined in a real union. 1t thus seems
as if it were intended by nature to be
the matrimonial finger. That the side
of the ring finger next to the little
finger is connected with the ulnar nerve
is frequently proved by common ac-
cident, that of striking the elbow
against any hard edge, when, if the
nerve is touched, a thrilling sensation
is felt in the little finger and on the
sarac side of the ring finger, but not
on the other side Of it.-TNew Orleans
Picayuue.
