PERSONAL AND LITERARY.

--Puvis de Chavannes, the famous
French painter. Is tall, erect, broad
shouldered man, with snowy beard and
close-cropped hair. He Is seventy years
old. His studio at Neuilly is an inn
mense, barn-like structure, situated in
the rear of deserted garden. Tho
paintings in IL are almost its only fur
niture. De Chavannes comes OF an old
and noble family.
One of the most prominent of the
ex-baseball players in congress is Rep
resentative Wadsworth, of New York.
He was one of the champions of the
western counties of the state when he
was a young man, and shows broken
index finger on his right hand and a
left hand the palm of which is SCARED
In all directions, where it was splitIn
stopping hot liner from the bat.
Gen. Lew Wallace denies the re-
port that he had advocated the estab-
lishment of a college of Immortals"
on the plan of the French academy.
The report arose from his suggestion
that a room in the new congressional
library building be set aside for the
exclusive use of a few men who have
been especially distinguished in the
fields of literature or science, as place
where they could conduct their re-
searches without disturbance.
AT the recent sale of the library of
Edmund Yates the writing desk used
by Charles Dickens when he died, and
presented to Yates by the family was
sold for Sa25. The original letters of
Dickens to Yates brought $3.50, and
Yates's collection of autographs S3a5.
The books, which included first edi-
tions of Dickens and Thackeray,
brought only fair prices, though n pre-
sentation copy of the first edition of
"A Tale of Two Cities" was sold for

that was made up by Una Hawthorne,

Hawthorne relics in Salem. 1t is
faded little volume of eighty pages,
containing flowers, leaves, even blades
of grass, gathered at historic spots by
Miss Hawthorne, sod or leaves from
Keats and Shelley's graves, an olive
leaf from Casa Guido" in Florence,
and a sprig of grass from Petrarch's
house.
-Rochefort returns at sixty-four
from an exile that was rendered as
agreeable to him as enforced absence
from ones native land can be. London
received him Hospitality and made much
of him, while he drove one of the finest
turn-outs in the park, lived comforta-
bly, and in some style, and had books
and friends about him. To go back to
Paris now without a cause to cham
pion, with no Boulanger to assist, with
out even political duel in prospect,
may seem to the fiery editor humdrum
and tame. The poor of London viii
miss him, for he was prodigal in his
charities. =

Its moorings with these earthly ships,
For the seal OF death IL on her lips.

When the tide goes out
She may lay her treasures at His feet,
He who made her life complete;
Who sailed away when life was sweet,
When the tide went out
Life itself must begin at last,
For them when the harbor-bar Is passed:
And the anchor OF death Is surely cast,
When the tide goes out
For the fiotsam OF life shall come drifting In
Beyond the rocks OF doubt and SIN,
And Gods sweet peace shall enter In.

A BIG DEAL.

Hon. w. f. Bricker of this city and
Chas. G.. Loase of Smyrna consumated
an important real estate and personal
property deal Tuesday, involving about
ga, 200 worth of property. The papers
were drawn up by Attorney H. l.. Van
Benschoten by which Mr.. Loase deeds
his farm south of Smyrna and all per-
sonal property on the place to Mr..
Bricker who in turn conveys to him all
of his Sunfield property which includes
a fine house aud two lots and a general
stock of merchandise with all outstand-
ing accounts.
Mr.. Loase will Immediately take
possession of the Sunfield property and
as soon as arrangements can be made
to leave the farm, will move his family
to that place. He purchased it about
ten years ago, and although he claims
to be no farmer, has kept improving it
until it is now as fine farm property
as any one could wish to own. During
their residence in Smyrna they have
made many friends, who while they will
regret to see them go, wish them a
large measure of success in the new
home.

A NOTABLE EVENT.

Next Monday night, our citizens aud
all lovers of good laugh will be given
treat by the appearance at Bedding
opera house of Gillette's roaring COM
edy-farce, "All the Comforts of Home, y
which is now playing at Grand Rapids.
This comedy is one of the best ever
written and was greater financial
success than the other plays of William
Gillette. The company numbers fif-
teen acting people and is without doubt
the best theatrical organization that
ever visited Bedding. The scenery for
the play is carried complete by the
company. This company began its
season in Brooklyn, August 26th, and
plays mostly in week stands and Beld-
ing is certainly fortunate in securing
. date.

The entered apprentice degree will
be worked at f. & A. Nj. hall, Friday
night, and on next Monday night will
occur the regular communication for
the election of officers. The presence
OF every member is earnestly solicited.
Men who are all the time trying to
get out OF town will never build up the
town or their own business One of
two things must be done-run the town
for all it is worth, get up steam and
keep it up or quit the whole thing,
slide out and let nature take its course.
Do you want trade? Bid for it. Do
you want a prosperous town where
people can come who are disposed to
take homes? Then do away with per-
sonal feeling, and view a man on his
merits, whether he is day laborer, a
lawyer, or a clerk; bury from sight all
spite work: work no more for the in
terest of few individuals, but all
work together for mutual benefit.
Don't work with fear and trembling
but take it for granted that blood will
tell.
