BEAUTY ON A SEER.
Interesting Adventures of an EIoping Co'
 pie Down In West Virginia.

pie Down In West Virginia
 PARKERsBURG, w. Va, Sept. 25.-On Saturday morning couple appeared in Welch, Mcdowell county. They were Miss Carrie Goats, a pretty country damsel of I7, and Sandy Johnson, a tall, good look Ing mountaineer of 22. They had travelled all night from the brides home on Ground Hog creek in order to elude the obdurats Eather of the girl. The giE was riding on the back of a digniied spotted steer, and Sandy was walking by her side. The un- usual sight soon drew crowd, and half dozen hurried off after a magistrate or preacher Unluckily for the lovers, no offi- cial could be found who would marry them, on account of the girls age. When the couple learned of this, they broke down and cried, the girl sobbing as if heart broken.
 The tears of the pretty girl brought about determination on the part of the specta- tors to see them through in some way, and one suggested that they take a train for Bristol, Tenn, where they would find no difficulty in getting married. This propo- sition changed the tears of the bride into smiles of joy and Sandys less apparent grief into open mouthed delight for mo ment until he thought of the expense. Some one in the crowd, however, anticipat- ed the young man and proposed that the crowd pay all expenses, and in less time than it takes to write it pocketbooks were out, and enough mouey was contributed to carry the couple through, with a souvenir left over for the bride.
 Neither of the couple had ever seen a train before, and when it pulled in they got on the platform between the engine and baggage car. Their sponsors soon rem edied this mistake and had them conducted into a ladies car, where the conductor was expressly charged to see them safely through

Concerning Iicrobcs,

One would by no means be willing to set himself against science, but may it not be possible that the professors are getting the microbe question a little struck in on their brains, as it were? We ask as one desiring information. If they do not stop microbe seeing or ere ating microbes out of the thought ether, they will begin to drive the common mind to madness.
 We are now told that every time we take bite of bread and butter we eat q microbe population equal in number to that of the whole United States The microbes are m the butter, We are told, and the pleasant information is added free of charge that they fall froA the body of the COW during the process of milking, no matter though she is the sweetest Jersey that ever took a Worlds fair prize. If you eat q pinch of cheese, it Is still worse. You dare not take a drink of unboiled water either without swallow ing microbes enough, if they were dol lars, to pay off the national debt and all the United States pensioners besides. Most maddening of all is the informa- tion that from the hands, nails and lips of our dearest friends issue billions and billions of fiendish, wriggling, horned monsters agape and ready to devour us night and day. Really, is life worth living any more?

 The Buffalo Courier says the word flake" as applied to newspaper lying, is the worst sort of slang. The Courier is mistaken. It is word that exactly strikes home to the purpose for which 1t was intended, and no other word. will do. As long as newspaper writers will lie and impose on the public that trusts and believes in them, flake" must stand to fit their case. If. however, any other term can be invented that sounds meaner and more low down than "fake" bring it on. and we'll drop flake and use that.

Information Pertaining to Their Proper
 Location and Construction
 In section of country which is not broken up by deep ravines or traversed by numerous water courses the road should be laid out in as straight line as practicable, preferably along a section or township line, which will save cost of construction and time in travel, but when these conditions are reversed it may be found more economical as well as more convenient to go around a hill instead of through or over it, and there fore the location should be made with due care and skill by the same rule that is followed in the location of a railroad.
 After the road has been located and correctly plated levels should be run over the line and grades established, the width of roadway determined, provisions made for surface drainage by the proper location and construction of culverts or drains, besides under or suhdrainage where necessary. Tho question of sub drainage is of special importance, as no road, no matter of what material or how we'll constructed. will give satisfaction unless tho sabsoil under its foundation is free from spring or ground water, since this, if not conducted away by proIer and sufficient drainage. will keep the roadbcd sot; and sICngy. especially in the spring after the frost go-@ out and during cont .uuous wet weather

AMERICAN civilization is being foully outraged before the world in the scenes so frequently witnessed to-day in the south. The lynching of negroes is now almost an every day occurrence, and in many sections mob law is supreme. Reading of the con- tinual shooting, hanging and burning of colored men with all the accessories of fiendish brutality, one is forced to ask himself whether all the atrocities are the work of Americans. But such men are a living libel on the honored name of Ameri- ems.
 \ PECULIAR condition of affairs has eN- i,ted in New York during the past six weeks. There have been more emigrants leaving the port than immigrants arriving. While immigration has largely decreased owing to the reports of hard times sent out to other countries, emigration has largely increased. The foreigners who are going back to the old country are largely bound to Italian and German ports, The drnin on the foreign element of the country and the decrease in immigration will serve tc relieve the hard times and quicken the boOm
