Brignoh was 50 careful Of his voice

During the last 30 years Of his life he
lived at the Everett House when not on

quarters Of an hour to go from his room

the changes very gradually. Leaving
the room, he would pace up and down

would say, and from there would 60 to

prodigality Of Life In Ancient Egypt.

The reckless prodigality with which
in ancient Egypt the upper classes
squandered away the labor and lives Of
the people is perfectly startling. In this
respect, as the monuments yet remain
ing abundantly prove, they stand alone
and without rival. We may form
some idea Of the almost incredible waste
when we hear that 1000 men were occu-
pied for three years in carrying single
stone from Elephantine to SAILS. that the
canal Of the Red sea alone cost the lives
Of 120, COO Egyptians, and that to build
enc of the pyramids required the labor
Of 100000 men for 20 years London

Going on for Months.
Thomasville, Ga, Aug. 3i.-F'or many
months the householders Of Townsville
have been plagued with sneak thieves.
The rascals were very slick and evaded
detection until month or two ago, when
the Brandon brothers caught two negro
girls in their home. This led 70 the ar
rest OF the mother ard the discovery OF
many scores Of articles stored at her
house, many Of which we're identified by
the owners from whom they had been
stolen. The stealing ceased. Yesterday
the mother plead guilty in the county
court and was fined the paltry sum Of
Sl4OO including costs, and turned loose
upon helpless people TO continue her
avocation.
The Townsville opera house has been
leased by j. w. Reid. 7. l. Spence is
manager.
The business men of Thomasville are
delighted at the action of the House in
repeating the Sherman law. The repre-
sentative in congress from the Second
district no longer represents the more
Intelligent part of his people on the
money question.
President 5. L. Hayes. of the National
bank said to the News correspondent that
in his Judgment there would be only a
half crop Of cotton made in this section.
We think his estimate too low but the
crop will be short.

Senator Henry c. Nelson, of New York
writes; 'On the 9th of February, 1883,
was taken with a violent pain in the re.
gion of the kidneys. Isuffered such agony
thatl could hardly stand up. AS soon as
possible applied two ALLCocK's Porous

down. In an hour, to my surprise and
delight, the pain had vanished and l was

two as precaution, and then removed
them. | have been using ALLcocK's

my experience believe they are the best

STAMPEDING OXEN,
They VIII Leap Over a Precipice o
Run Until They Die.

They VIII Leap Over Precipice OF
Run Until They Die.
MANY people who have been much
on the plains in the ante railroad days
have seen stampedes of mules and
horses" remarked l.. T. Otero of Santa
Fe, "but by far the worst stampede is
that of terrified oxen. When they are
loose they will, if frightened, run over
q precipice if it cones in their way,
but if stampeded when hitched to
wagons very few will escape. Once
when on the Cimarron one of my OK
teams became frightened, what at I
never knew. The six oxen started off
at a breakneck speed. and the con-
tagion was impaired to two other
teams. The men tried to stop them,
but they might as well have tried to
check a mountain torrent. The oxen
went on right across the country, with
the heavy wagons rattling at their
heels, and ran until nearly half Of
them fell dead from exhaustion. l
used to think that a blooded horse was
the only animal that would run itself
to death, but after my experience 1
learned thai t was no uncommon thing
for frightened OK to do"

New York World: The engagement
ring is worn on the same finger as the
wedding ring, and after marriage Is
worn as a guard to it. The solitaire
diamond is always a favorite, but the
range Of styles and prices is wide, and
tho girls fancy and the youths purse
may combine to make any ring proper.
AS to wedding rings, the square" and
round" ones each have their admirers.
A wedding ring with sharp cut edges
fits Snugly, but being worn constantly
will make in time callous spot at the
base of the finger, which is anything but
beautiful. A ring with all round edges
renders this impossible. and it is more
comfortable to wear. giving with every
motion of the finger. In this country
there is a pleasant freedom allowed en-
gagged lovers. They ride, drive or walk
together unQuestiOned. Her engage
ment is one of the most charming ex-
periences of a girls life, and she is wise
who will not let it be cut too short. The
length of an engagement must depend
mostly upon outward circumstances.
only journey. of which the emf
must come sooner or later. A month
or six weeks is not too short if such a
time is found best. and there are couples
who have waited seven years to see
their hopes realized.

His Wife Loves Him, but He Got Into
Trouble
A young married man at Winnweiler
had got to wondering if his wiley real
ly loved him and whether she would
weep and lament if he happened to die.
Unable to find satisfactory answer
to the problem, he decided to put the
matter to a practical test. His better
half returned one afternoon from d
visit to a neighbor, little dreaming Of
the scene Of horror that awaited her.
Stepping into the room she started
back, uttering a loud scream, for there
stretched upon the bed lay her aus
band with his face all splashed with
blood, and beside him lay the murder
GUS weapon.
At her cries and lamentations the
neighbors focked into the house, heard
the dreadful news and pitied the sor-
rowing widow, says the Badische
Presse. All at once, however, the dear
lamented one sprung from the bed,
"well and hearty" clasped his despair
ing wife in his arms and said:
Here you have me again; am not
dead I only wanted to see if you
would weep when I had gone"
And in order to produce this effect
he had besmeared his face with the
juice Of beet root, laid the pistol be-
SIDE him and awaited the return of
bis wife with Closed eyes and open
mouth. The police are now going to
bring him up for creating a disturb
ance.
