of him:

honor which Dana has pronounced so es-

desirable IN technical Journalism. Ever
conscious of the duty imposed hy this re-
sponsibility, no labor was too ariuous in the
verlhcatlon of facts, and no care too great in
the preparation Of editorial matter, that it
might give rise to no wrongful interpreta-
tons on the part of readers oftentimes too
busy to more than cursorily examine it,
with him carelessness in these respects in

"REWARD OF VIRTUE"

There was funny little comedy
In town one evening during the
past week, the sequel to an event
dating back over month ago,
when the Green's Run Mission
Chapel was dedicated. That night
an occurrence took place not down
on the programme, in which a fast
young man, a giddy girl and a
stern and watchful grandmother
were the leading characters. The
facts in brief were about as follows:
The gay young man, "Prof." John
Gidley, who is said to be a great
ladies' man, wanted to escort home
that night, certain young lady
present and was about to start with
his girl when her grandma, Mrs.
Isaac Teets, very estimable old
lady, found out the state of affairs.
and being terribly opposed to John
as a grandson-in- law, sailed in and
gra bbed the girl, entering forcible
protest the mean time, and when
John interfered, the old lady
whacked him vigorously over the
head with her umbrella breaking it
IN pieces, so that John beat an un-
dignified retreat. Some of the
citizens of town concluded that as
the umbrella bad been broken in a
good cause, it ought to be replaced,
aud subscription for that pur-
pose was started at once. Every
body wanted to contribute to the
fund and the amount raised was
sufficient to purchase the finest
nm brella in town and an elegant
dress pattern besides. Then Harry
Potter, the joweler, made hand.
