A Bad Little Boy.

"Like all thoroughly bad boys, he is
named Willie," said DR.. T. Hamilton
Burch in the course of a description Of
one of his juvenile patients, "and I have
had him under my care since his debut
in this hemisphere, some five brief years
ago. A brighter young one never lived,
and while he is always in trouble, his
misdeeds invariably develop an element
ef humor that saves him from the much
threatened, but never applied, conse-
quences. He has vein of cruelty in
him-there's not one child in d thousand
that hasn't-and the one thing that par
ticularly appeals to him is the drowning
of new. born and undesirable kittens.
SIN company with his side partner, an
equally bad little boy whose mother will
insist on calling him Petite, he will
travel any distance tc witness any of
these executions, and what he doesn't
know about the proper disposal of sur.
plus kittens is not worth acquiring. It

knows, that has been really and truly
decided, willed and bequeathed to his Sa-
tanic Majesty. This sometime to be sui.
phuric plot lies four and half miles
South OF Helsingfors, Finland. a few
years ago, Lars Hoularien died in the lit.
tie town of Pielsjarvi, in the above nam
ed country, leaving considerable property
in the shape of real estate. How he had
come into possession of SO much land no
one seemed to know, but as he was very
bad citizen it was generally admitted that
he was in league with Wihtahausa (the
devil) and that they had had many bust
ness deals with each other. This some
what startling opinion was varied when
old Huolsrien died, for, upon opening
his will, the Magistrate found a certi6ca-
ted warranty deed inclosed therein which
decided to the devil all of his (Huolari.
en's) earthly possessions. The will was to
the same effect. The family have tried
repeatedly to break the will, but so far
have been unsuccessful; thus the records
plainly show that his Sulphuric Majesty
has legal right and title to some excel
lent grounds in the near vicinity of both
Helsingfors and PrieliRjarvi. The simple
people of the neighborhood have chang
ed the cou-se of road which formerly
skirted the Huolarien homestead, and
declared that they would not enter upon
the possessions of Satan & 90. for all the
money that three such estates would
bring. Although no living person has
passed the threshold since the old man
died, the mansion is said to be brilliantly
lighted every night, and many curious
stories are told of unearthly frolics the
devils have on this their only known
earthly possessions.

his seat after recess. He had fine, open
manly face. / thought great deal of the
masters remark. What character had

Every boy in the neighborhood is known,
and opinions are formed of him be has
a character favorable or unfavorable. A
boy of whom the master can say, There

will never want employment. The fdel-

has shown at school and priced elsewhere.

Large Wells.

The Scientific american in a recent
number says, respecting tho great wells
at Waco, Texas:
The 'Sampson" is the largest we'll in
the United States, and has few rivals in
the world. 1t is bored with diameter
of 10 inches to the depth of 1925 feet
all the artesian wells of Waco finding
their,sapply at from 1925 to 1850 feet
deep. The sampson" throws up about
100000 gallons daily of hot but per-
fectly pure and crystalline water, at q
tenperature of 13O degrees which is the
highest temperature Of any artesian
water yet discovered, with pressure of
60 fbs to the inch. It will rise in the,
standpipe to the height of 12O feet FROM
the ground. The supply appears to be-
inexhaustible, no diminution of pressure
having so far been felt at the other wells
Besides the Sampson" there are two
other standpipes, respectively 80 by 20
feet, and IS by 20 feet which not only.
supply Waco with pure artesian water
for domestic and manufacturing purpo-
ses, but also for hot, swimming and
other baths. More important, still,
indeed, for the future of the city, these
supply it, in addition, with a motive
power which can be applied to all kinds
of manufacturing purposes.
A correspondent in Dakota says, with
reference TO this article:
Permit me to correct the claims made i'm
your paper of May 7, wherein it is stated
that the "sampson" artesian we'll at
Waco, Texas, is the largest we'll in the
United States and throws the hottest
water. None of the claims made are
supported by the facts. Wells at Colum.
bus, st. Louis and other points are deep.
er than the Waco wells, being over
1000 feet deep. The Ponce de Lson
we'll at Jacksonville, Florida, is larger,
being II inches, and many other wells
are 10 or II inches or more in size. The
Florida we'll has volume of from 7 to
100000 gallons per day, so is four or
Eve times as large in point of volume as
the "Sampson;" and several of the wells
in Kern, Co., California, are twice as
large, while here in Dakota we have
number of wells two or three times as
large. Again, as to being the hottest
having temperature of l3O degrees
the claimant has probably not heard of
the hot water artesian wells at Boise
City, Idaho,. the temperature of which
nspses from $50 TO 40 degrees, the
sws.er being used for heating purposes.
FinailYas to the matter Of pressure, the
Dako:s wslls' with pressures from 50 to
22O pousds per inch, stand, in this re-
spect, at tas head of the List, supplying
the most perfect water powers to be
found in the wosld:. The Sampson" is
indeed giant and smaTEsly but is over
ahadowed in all respects by many other
wells in this country, ss' weld as by 9th
ers in France, Australis, aud 'other ooun'
tries.

But this Was more than could bear;.
To 20 and look without despair;
I STAYED at 9sume with aching heart,
And thought Of friends who haa hs'part-

To kill his wife with his own hanGr
That she might lie beneath the sod
At tho place where she in CHILDHOOD u1oai'
But this might bind Gods own diviaG
To take her home at this set time,
That she might ever happy be
Out of that strife and jealousy.
Soon as he thorght what he had doner
Upon his own throat he begun

He then sank down upon the dirt.
For saphysician then he cried.
At his request some one complied,

WhosheS did find with ready hand
He cam 10 at oifce with hasty speed
To relieve the man who done the deed,
he dressed higwound as he thought best
That he mighE liFJto bear his test
So now the murderer lies in Jail,
Sometime now soorr e-will tell the tale,
On what will then hibrsgntence be,
I hope the prisoner wilHl;t's to see-
IF be good, if it be bad,
I know his heart is feeling sud-,
Not knowing what will be his doomh
For 1t may doubtless come in Jntss~
But if it be his doom to die,
I pray his soul may quickly fly
Beyond this world of sin and strife,
For all he killed his welded wife"
God bless their little children, too,
For they can't help what parents do.

The wealth of the negro population
of Alabama is estimated at S20,0O0,000.
Desertions from the Third Party are
becoming frequent in North Carolina.
One of the latest to make tho announce

no attended, thinking that the Convention
was "gotten up solely for the advance
ment of reform and to further the inter-
est ofthe depressed agriculturlst." But
upon investigation, Mr.. Duke says. he
can see nothing but Republican dodge
TO try and capture the white Democrats
of North Carolina, and in this way put
them back in tho dark days of 1SGS-G9.
Mr.. Duko says he is Il Democrat in the
fullest sense Of tho word, and especially
30 since the party has adopted such a
platform as it did at Chicago. "This
platform" says Mr.. Duke, "will satisfy
every true Democrat. live ever get re-
form I can't see where it will como from
unless it is through tho Democratic par
ty. There are lots of true men who saw
things just as 1 did--thought thoy were

their disgust that it is nothing more nor
less than q fraud"
