Col. Cloueh,s Lecture

The lecture last Friday by Col.
Clough upon the characteristics of
John A. Logan was decidedly interest.
ing. and we were sorry the audience
was no larger. Many rich "reminiscences
of the life of that great soldier and.
statesman. incidents that we're new to
many present. were auently and elo-
quently related. Col. Clough vas a
great admirer Of Logan, and delights to
talk of his many virtues. lie said
that Logan possessed more strength
and less faults than any other publ G
man of his time; he was always Truth
full and honest; always fearless and.
outspoken, yet kind and con .iderate;
never guilty of a sly or cowardly act.
The manliness, faithfulness and tender
ness of the great statesman Were forci-
bly, illustrated. Whenever Hot Springs
is again fortunate enough to secure
Col. Cluugh for a lecture he should be
greeted with q crowded house.

The hospital seems almost deserted
since Mckee has gone. There are only
two patients left and they are able to
wait on themselves.
The Leavenworth men are nearing
their exit from our home. and we hear
some of them remark that they would.
gladly nay their board If 1t would Be-
cure them a longer stay.
We hear that another fishing party is
being organized. If it does not include
Captains Megrew and Connors Its fate
no doubt will be similar to the expert
ence OF last spring.
Comrade Concannon of the Leaven.
worth detail has made himself musical
at the home and in town. However, it
was not his auto harp that he missed
the other dav, but his hat.

Tho Centaur,

The dictionaries-even those that are e.
pecially devoted to etymology--decline to
give any derivation of the word centaur,
contenting themselves with 'origin uncer-
tain" cannot help thinking that the old
fashioned suggestion Of kenteo Ito spur,
which gives the noun kenter in the sense
Of stimulator lone who applies the spur or
goad) IL not without reason. In that case
the Kentauri would DO simply the Homeric
'kentores Nippon" ''spurrers of steeds,"
and would designate 4 primitive race of
horse tanners and riders. In Scapula's Lex
icon, however, the word and Its derivatives
are included under tauros Qatin taurus, q
bully, and the explanation makes tho CEN
taurs simply mounted Ok goaders, or. in IA
miliar modern language, Cowboys"
Though tho shape Of the word Is against
this ~etymology, It long found favor with
scholars and has also some share Of proba-
hlity.-Montreal Gazette.

The Pelele.

The women Of q African tribe, the Man

is q lip ring made of ivory, metal or bamboo,
according to the means Of its owner. The
ring Is about an inch thick, and its diane
ter varies according to fancy, three inches
being the ordinary measurement. The two
holes in the upper lip necessary for wearing
these graceful ornaments are made when q
girl is very young, and the wounds kept
from closing by the insertion Of wooden
pegs, which are periodically replaced by
larger pegs till the pelele can be assumed in
all its Observation-Disclosures Press.

Lifs on Lig.tship.

Talk about rolling and pitchingi No vcs-

graceful swaying to the swelling Of the
seas. There arc days, too, when q ferce fog

night. There 10 no constant expectation Of
reaching port, and life soon becomes o
dreary monotony.
In case the lightship should be cast adrift,
II has bcen fitted with sails which will en-
able It to hold its own in storm and stress.
The hold is fitted with spacious storsrooms
and sleeping quarters and . machine for
comprising the air which blows the fog
horn. These foghorns arc what are known
In this country a. 'ssiren'' whistles. They
are called sirens probably because that Is
what they least resemble. They begin their
noise with . very low note and rise rapidly
In a sliding scale to a very thin high note
that distresses the ear. Then they descend
to the low note. and up and down In rapid
succession the shrieking, demonlike noises

How Some Wise and Ingenious Wrcns Got

How Some Wise and Ingenious Wrcns Got
Rid of tho Inquisitive Spsrrows.
The burlington Gazette tells this in
testing bird story, and has three men
ready to sign any number of affidavits
that 1t is true:
At the end of Prof Thomas big barn
are n number of bird houses for the use
of the thousands of feathered songsters
who keep the air alive in that locality.
The place Is close enough to the city
to be infested with the pugnacious and
hoggish English sparrow, and for some
years the sparrows and the wrens have
fought the season through for the pos
session Of the little houses. The wrens,
being the smallest, invariably came off
second best in the encounter until this
year, when the holes, or doors, We're
arranged SO that wren could get in,
but u sparow's body could not pass
through. Still the sparrows continued
their annoyances by sticking their
heads in the doors us far as possible
and worrying the poor little wrens to u
state of distraction. Finally the wrens
decided upon plan of action. They
rugged up horsehair moose directly
inside their little houses In such q way
that any intruding sparrow would stick
his neck into it. AS consequence the
men We're surprised one day to find a
sparrow hanging by the neck from one
of the houses, dead as country town
on Sunday He was cut down, and for
few days the sparrows let the wrens
rest undisturbed. Then another spar
row became inquisitive, and before he
knew it he too was dangling in the air,
unable to save himself These are the
only two instances that came under
the observation of the men, though
others perhaps have happened.
