ANAGENT REPULSED.

Mr.. Timsmith, the lawyer, whose
name is household word in Chica
go, recently moved into a beautiful
suburban home. He is highly
pleased with it in a general way, but
so many agents call upon him that
he finds it rather a bore. The other
day he opened the door to twelve
agents before the afternoon was half
over, and when he was summoned
to the door for the thirteenth time
he was mad enough to fight herd
of porcupines. A tall, sad-eyed man,
dressed in black, confronted him and
started to say something, but Mr..
Timsmith interrupted him:
"You don't need to tell me what
you have to sell, because 1 don't
want it; l don't need a burglar
proof clock, nor bootjack that has
a music-box in it, nor a stemwind-
ing can-opener; don't"
MY dear sir, you are mis-
ooh, you don't need to dear sir
me; it won't work. / tell you
don't want gate that may be taken
from its hinges and used as folding
bed; l have no use for combined
currycomb and moustache cup; [
have full supply of furniture polish,
cough medicine and hair restorer;
and what's more, my wife doesn't
need recipe for preserving Goldfish
or frying bi lard balls"
Really, sir, this is a most ex-
traordinary-"
ooh, of course, it's extraordinary,
but l don't want it. l suppose it
can be used to CRATE horse radish
and tune the piano. Perhaps it will
take the grease spots out Of clothing,
pare apples and chase dogs out of
the yard, but you'll have to go
somewhere else to sell it. l am sur
prised that a man Of your age and
respectable appearance should go
around trying to sell pocket corn
shelters when the whole neighbour
hood is full of wood that ought to
be sawed. What's the use of trying
to sell a man a fire escape when you
can make a dollar a day baling hay ?"
Pm not an agent"
Then what are you ?"
Pm the pastor of the Orthodox
Brethren church, and l came over to
get acquainted, not knowing that
you were running a private mad
house. Good day."-[Chicago Trib-
une.

1T SUPPORTS ALL CLAIMS,

One of the most remarkable cases brought
to the notice of the public is that of Mr.. ]. S.
Beach of Stone Ridge, N. Y, who for years
suffered from stone in the kidney. Early in
August he induced to try DR.. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. By the 18th
of September he voided a good sized stone,
and he has been a we'll man since. DIR.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is not a
mere soother of pain, but by its Alternative
action purifes the blood, disso1ves and
causes the expulsion of gravel and stone
from the kidneys and bladder. The testi-
mony of hundreds vouches for this. 1t will
build up a system run down by ork.

CORBETT-MITCHELL TRIAL.

JACKSONVILLE, February 28.-
The Criminal Court convened this
morning for the trial of Corbett
and Mitchell. The street around
the court house was crowded with
spectators anxious to see the two
pugilists. Corbett was first to ar
rive and was soon followed by Mitch

The trial Of Corbett was first be-

eide the other cases. The cham
pion is charged with engaging in a
fight and meeting in pursuance of
previous agreement one Charles

John &, Hartridge, attorney of
the club, waived arraigned and

Twenty witnesses we're called and
the entire meeting was consumed
in picking a jury, and at recess five
had qualified three white men and
two negroes. The general impress

likely consume several days, the
men eventually will be acquitted.

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY.
It's Beacon Light of Freedom to be
Maintained by a Society.

The conclusion has been reached
in official circles at Washington,
that the Government will, all
probability, soon transfer to the
Sons of the American Revolution,
or some kindred society, the privil-
ege of maintaining a beacon light
on the statue of liberty at New
York harbor. The lighthouse
board, from whose appropriations
this light has been maintained,
some time ago strongly protested
to the secretary of the treasury
against this yearly expense of S1O,-
600 being taken from an already in
sufficient appropriation, and rec
ommend, as a light from apractical
point of view useless, it should be
discontinued. 1t was then that a
number of patriotic societies of
New York proposed to relieve the
government from the expense, and
asked that they be given control OF
the statue, on condition that they
maintain the light This will likely
soon be done. 1t is said by persons
who are in a position to know, that
already the statue shows alarming
signs of dissolution. The thin veneer
of copper, of which the statue Is
made, has already rusted through
in many places so one can readily
see to ascend the stairs without the
aid of artificial light, In order to
preserve the statue and arrest the
ravages of rust the lighthouse
board has been compelled to paint
the statue, and, as this distracted
somewhat from its appearance, the
result has been unsatisfactory. 1t
is not believed, even with the ex-
cellent care the lighthouse board
bestowed upon the statue it can
hardly be expected to last more
than ten or fifteen years longer
The society which seeks to relieve
the government of maintaining the
beacon now runs a ferry line at
Bedioe's Island, and has already ae-
cumnlated about $4,000, which it
is willing to expend in replacing the
electric light plant, which is nearly
worn out, and maintaining the light

Sunny South Planer Burned.

A report from New Lewis
vile, Ark, announces the destruc-
tion by fire, of the planer belonging
to the Sunny South Lumber Com
pany, and situate one mile from
that place. The mills and lumber
yards escaped without material
injury, only the planer, we are in
formed, being destroyed. The loss
is estimated at $4,000, amount of
insurance unknown, although it is
thought that the loss is partially,
if not wholly, covered. The Sunny
South Lumber Company, to which
this property belongs, was thrown
into the hands of a Receiver some
time since, Hon. R. L. Trigg, being
named as such, by the court. Mr..
