For the second time since the
Civil War a Democratic President

This Inauguration, the second for
President Cleveland, will be the
greatest event in thes history of
Democracy. The Baltimore &
Ohio Southwestern r. r. offers an
unexce led service, through limited d
buffet, vestibuled trains with Pull
man sleeping cars from Athens to
Washington. No railroad is better
equipped to transport large bodies
with dispatch, safety and comfort.
Its experience and success in for
mer Inauguration ceremonies, the
Knights Templar Conclave, G.. A..
r. Encampment and similar gath
erings is guarantee that its prom,
ises will be carried out.
The Baltimore & Ohio is the
shortest route to washington from
all points east and west, crosses
the crest of the Alieghanies amid
the most picturesque scener ry of
America and on the Eastern slope
winds it's way along the historic
valley of the Potomac.

Judpe waiter o. Gresham.

The announcement that Presi-
dent-elect Cleveland will select
Judge Gresham, for the Cabinet
position of Secretary Of State,
seems to cause quite a ripple in
newspaper circles, and the propo-
sition meets with very general CEN
sure from both the great parties.
We are of the opinion that the
daily press is engaged in bolster
ing up man Of straw in this in
stance, for the sole purpose of tear
ing their creation to fragments,
yet in view of the facts of history
why should the President-elect
not select the Judge for the port
folio of state or any other place his
judgment may dictate.
No one can, or will deny, that the
selection of Cleveland as our can
didate last year, was due, in great
measure to the popular indorse-
ment of his former administration
as a whole.
The idea of a straight Democrat
ic office-holding class was ignored
if not repudiated at Chicago last
summer, and Mr.. Cleveland was
left free to select such aids and ad-
visers as shall suit his fancy.
Judge Gresham was warm per.
sonal and political friend during
the campaign, and is an able states
| man.

OBITUARY.

Impartial and unreprochable
Death has thrust his mighty sickle
again into the family of Abraham
Cell and has plucked an infant
flower from the Great tree of life
which only beg an to bloom but we
feel that it has gone to blassom
and ripen under the Divine care of
one whose love for little children
far exceeds that of its parents, but
we can symphathize with the be-
reaved parents by experience.
May the giver of all good, bless
the bereaved and afflicted ones in
their loss is our prayer. Earnest,

Yuma County. The children of Israel
were at one time fed by the number OF
quails that focked around them and
mama from heaven. If they were in
Mohawk Valley to-day they could do
equally as we'll. The quail literally
cover the ground, and can be ca-xht by
hand. Those who are proHting by catch
ing them aud shipping to San Francisco
catch more than they can bag. Hun.
dreds Of dozens are shipped daily by ex-
press. They have used up all the lum-
Der for boxes and have about used all
the barley sacks in the county shipping
them in that manner. The children
make from seven to twenty dollars day
catching them, and their numbers do
not seem to diminish. Similar reports
of their numbers come from Aqua Cali
ente and Gila Bend, and their slaughter
goes daily along. You fun-loving

Says the Boston Transcript: "Few
biographies mention the district in the
South known as the Poor Mans Belt
1t is tract of country generally very
sandy and producing little timber save
the long leafed pine. 1t begins not far
south of Richmond, Va, and extends
along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts into
Texas. Its length is not far from 1900
miles, while it is from SO to $50 miles
in width. The soil is poor, but the
forests produce not only lumber in
abundance, but also large quantities of
pitch, tar and turpentine. 1t got a bad
name during anti-bellum days because
no cotton was raised in it, but, since the
South is beginning to look elsewhere
than to the cotton field for its wealth,
the Poor Mans Belt promises to be-
come one of the richest parts of the
Southern States"

A Great Philanthropist.

The new Peabody Institute, recently
dedicated at Danvers, Mass, was neces.
sarily built of wood, but as long as it
stands 1t will be very worthy memorial
of the gift of the philanthropist to his
native town. George Peabody was born
IN Danvers, February 18th, 1898, and
died in London, November 4th, 1859.
In 1856 he donated $40, 600 for an insti-
tute in his native town, and In 1865 he
endowed it with $40, 900, but unfor.
tunately the original structure was
burned in 1890.
The present structure cost but S28, 600.
The architecture is colonial, aud the
dimensions are fifty-two feet in width
and ninety two feet long. It stands in
beautiful park, which is bordercd by
Sylvan and Pond streets and Peabody
avenue, and is flushed in fine woods,
with the usual rooms of such building,
as library, main hall, etc. The latter has
a seating capacity OF HOO, with large
stage fitted up with scenery for plain
theatricals.
The library has shelves for 10000
volumes, and the reading room adjacent
is very cozy and pleasant place. In
one room hangs the portrait, six by 1 inc
feet, of Mr.. Peabody, which was saved
with great difficulty when the original
building was burned. Its cost was
$500. The structure is designed for
library, museum, social hall aud general
gathering place for the Dauversites. =

A Birds Eye View Of Dahomey.

Although previously but little known
to outsiders, Daho,ney has been brought
by tue recent French invasion into the
light of the worlds attention. Il will,
therefore, be timely to call to mind some
of the more important features of this
African State, few of which are here
gwen:
..Dahomey, situated on the western
coast of Africa, com, rises an area of 1000
square miles, and reaches from the Yor-
uba States on the east to Ashanti on the
western boundary, which is marked by
the river Volta. On the north lies the
Wapgera territory. Once the largest and
most powerful kingdom on the slave
coast, it has been greatly reduced by
long and disastrous wars with neighbor-
ing States. Its population is estimated
at $50, 900. The capital is Abomey, In
the interior, and its seaport is Whydah,
seventy miles away.
ssThe monarchy, rounded early in the
Seventeenth Century, is of an absolute
type, King Behanzin maintaining, be-
sides ordinary soldiery, the now famous
body guard of 5000 Amazons, or female
troops, who are we'll disciplined and
formidable warriors. The natives, who
are fetish worshipers and of pure Afri-
can blood, are industrious farmers, pro.
ducing and exporting maize, cattle,
ivory, India rubber and the best palm
oil made in Upper Guinea. The hostili-
ties with France first began in 1890,
arising from the disputed stations, on the
South coast, of Porto Novo and Kotonu.
A peace was concluded in October of
that year, but lasted only until this sum-
mer."
In spite of their extreme barbarism the
Dahomeyans were found by the French
to possess the -.- Of modern warfare.

One of the most remarkable schemes
CT the day, in the opinion of the New
York World, is the plan of Sir Cecil
Rhodes, the Premier of Cape Colony,
South Africa, to build telegraph line
from the Cape to Egypt. Sir Cecil, it
is said, is now on his way to Cairo to
look after details, aud the project, CHI
merical as it may seem, has been indorsed
by many public men in England. Sir
Cecil's proposition takes the British
fancy, because his telegraph is intended
chiefly as the first thread upon which e.
great British empire in Africa is to be
strung. 1t is believed in England that
the Germans will yet get out of Africa
and leave their extensive possessions on
the east coast to the Union Jack. Then
England will have the unbroken right of
way from the Cape to Cairo, by the way
of Zanzibar and the district of the Great
Lakes.

Novel Climbing Device.

A French inventor has devised novel
aud practical arrangement for use by
firemen and others to facilitate rope
climbing, and, at the same time, to per-
NIT the climber to have free use of his
hands. The apparatus consists of two
boards joined by hinge, a hole passing
through both the hinge and the boards,
and the extremities of the latter are pro-
vided with straps. which can be fastened
to the feet of the man using the appara-
tus. The method of climbing involved
in this arrangement is simple. When
the feet attached to the boards arc lifted
the rope is free, but the moment the feet
are pressed down on the two boards the
rope is firmly gripped. 1t is only neces-
sary, therefore, to lift the body with
both hands as far as possible, and it can
then be held by the hinged clamps until
another lift is made. By the use of o
belt to hold the body close to the rope
the hands may be left free for work.

The Society for the Protection OF Birds
appears to be making headway in Eng
land. According to its second annual
report, which has just been issued, the
number of members has increased from
1900 to 2h00. There is evidently plenty
of work for them to do if they wish to
preserve birds of bright plumage from
the annihilation threatened by the de.
mands of fashion. 1t appears that even
so common, hardy and prolific a bird as
the goldfnch is in danger of extinction.
The fashion of mounting whole birds on
hats and bonnets has been peculiarly
fatal. What the society is anxious to
bring about ia the extension of the wild
birds protection act, the operation of
which begins too late and ends too soon
In the year to be of much practical ben
eft. The report points out that it is
not only the direct slaughter of birds
for which fashion is responsible. There
is an enormous demand nowadays for
real winter berries for the purpose of
feminine adornment. As result good
many birds which escape the snare of
the fowler die of starvation for lack of
their natural food. Artificial berries last
longer than the real and look just as
pretty, while the manufacture of them
would provide employment for many
destitute women.

Photographing Vowel Sounds.

At the recent International Congress OF
Physiology at Liege, Professor Herman
demonstrated his method of photograph
ing the sound of vowels. The vowels
were sung out before one Of Edison's
Photographs. Immediately afterward
they were reproduced very slowly, and
the vibrations recorded by microphone.
The latter was furnished with mirror,
which reflected the light of an electric
lamp upon registering cylinder, covered
with sensitized paper and protected by
another cylinder with small opening
which gave passage to the rays of light
from the reflector. BY this means was
obtained very distinct Photographic
traces, and the constancy was remark
able for the different letters. York

like to hear first whether you can re-
member what I said." And Dualla,
with his wonderful memory, repeated
the operation word for word as had de-
scribed it. After that Dualla was left to
himself for the day, and when I retired
for the night had heard no word.
The next morning, while was taking

station, and looking out of the window,
l saw the Zanzibaris rushing frantically
to the beach. They we're shortly after
seen marching in procession to my house
with Dualla hoisted high, and seated like
hero on their shoulders. At the door
I met them, and, gravely taking off my
cap, said, "Good morning, Mr.. Dualla. -
Dualla les ped smartly to the ground,
and salutinl, said, "The boat is at the
beach. SIR"
"Thank you, Dualla; there are three
cheques for you, for &25 each. One is
from Lieutenant -, who was the cause
of the great danger you have been put
to; the second is on behalf of the Inter-

feats, but after six years. service with me

with Captain James in his expe-
