The name of Donohoe's Magazine.
founded by Mr.. Patrick Donohoe Of Bos-
ton. in 1879. is known and respected
throughout the Englishspeaking world.
Within the past year it has achieved al
most marvellous success. and stands to-
day peerless in its field, doing splendid
work for greater religious tolerance and
better economic conditions. This success
has been won under the direction of its
new publisher, Hon. Daniel p. TOomey,
who, In addition, is at the head of one OF
Boston's book publishing companies and
is representative from that city in the
Legislature of Massachusetts.
Mr.. Toomey writes as follows in cam
did and interesting letter:

helps tear down the bridge that carried
him over.' Neither do l sympathiZe with
the man who hides facts just because

The Migratorv Crab

The West Indian migratory crab is the
only creature that is born in the sea, ma
lures in fresh waters and passes its adult
life on land. Once a year these creatures
migrate in thousands from the uplands
of Jamaica, deposit their Larvae in the
sea, then migrate to the rivers and
streams, pass through fresh water stage,
after which they follow their parents to
land until the time comes for them to re-
turn to the sea to lay their eggs.

John C. Wood, formerly editor
and proprietor of the Mt. Sterling
Gazette, Republican, having retir-
ed from the editorial tripod, has
entered upon a new field of bust
ness. Insurance, fire and life, real
estate, etc. With the energy
which has been used in journalism
turned into these paths, Mr.. Wood
will undoubtedly meet with great
success.
John C. Wood has edited the
Gazette with ability, and his pen
has been welded in line with his
convictions. AS a politician he
has been bold and fearless, and
never has he lost interest in the
welfare of county and State. Be
ing live and progressive, his in
fuence has been for our own enter
prises. The effect of Mr.. Woods
pen will be greatly missed on the
Gazette, but it is hoped that he
will again resume editorial work in
a field wider where he can climb
the journalistic ladder. He is a
born newspaper man and we know
him well enough to say that he has
few superiOrs as an editor and all
around newspaper man.

On last Saturday it seems that
Henry Barnes and Albert Bondu-
rant, both colored, were down on
the railroad having game of
cards and over the shutting of the
cards they quarrelled and Bondu-
rant attacked Barnes with a knife,
cutting him five times. One cut
under the left arm is serious,
though not necessarily dangerous.
The intentions for murder howev-
er were good and it was no fault of
Bondurant that he did not kill
Barnes and for his intention he
should be promptly punished and
that as severely as it is possible.
This free use of knives and pistols
must be stopped and we can not
begin too soon.

they willingly and with open eyes
threw their money into the pockets of
