interesting character.
The decorations were not gaudy or ex-

In rear ofthe recess in letters sufficient
ly large to be read from any part of the
church was the motto: "Crown Him with
many crowns" aud Grown Him Lord OF
ALL"
In place of the pulpit was beautiful
cross to which was clinging evergreens
and flowers. On the cross were the
significant letters:

On the steps forming the pedestal of
the cross were the words:

Nature H;i'i';;;::: cously Violated Iastead Of
Being Shown Mirror.

Being shown Il Mirror.
A French dramatic critic, with some
show Of medical knowledge, represents
that ncarly all actors and actresses
outraGcously violate nature in their
limitations of death, says the Baltimore
Gazette. He cites, in corroboration of
his charge, the customary theatrical
death Of Camille, in the younger Du-
mas favorite emotional play of that
title. According to the author, his
heroine is effected with pulmonary con
sumption, and an incidental attack Of
hemorrhago of the lungs distinguishes
her lie. There is absolutely nothing
dramatic to be made out Of this mode
OF dying, if fidelity to fact be obcvcd.
The gushing OF stream of blood fro,n
tA2 mouth would be realistic, but the
imitation OF such a phenomenon is
never made by actors, male or female,
nor would any discreet manager toll
crate such a piece OF stage business.
Again, the overwhelming suffooation
which produces the rapid death in
Camille'B case is never atcompanic1 nv
commissions, such as her dying repre-
sentatives on the stage almost ALWAYS
assume. In natural death from this
cause the sufferer simply collapses from
failure of the vital powers.
Theatrical poisoning scenes are also
usually untrue to nature. It is popu-
larly believed that when q fatal dose of
laudanum or morphine is swallowed
the victim Immediately sinks into a
deathlikc sleep, as is commonly seen on
the stage, whereas the first effect Of
this poison taken in like quantity is in
variably to excite and enliven. Nor is
the mode of dying after the haclSneyed
cardiac stage stab in conformity with
the laws Of nature. The actor simplv
falls at full length, or in heap. where
as the everyday member of society
gives n spring when the heart is strucl.
before entering eternity by this un-
happy gate. Even the modern Othello
has not inherited enough of Shakes
peare's wonderful fidelity to truth to
die naturally after stab through the
heart.

THE PIsGAH PROGRESS.
How the Editor Of That Journal
is Progressing This Cold
Weather.

From the Pisgah Progress.
We wish to refute the base slab-
der circulated by the secret enc
mics of this journal to the effect
that we had starved to death We
nave not done so, and will not. as
long as black birds and chippy
sparrows are fools enough to enter
4 trap he have in the back
yard, at the rate they have done
for the past week. We can almost
feel our pin feathers a sproatin'
and are nearly ready to begin eat
in Chinaberries like the rest OF the
feathered songsters.
The Lord will provide.
We have frequently been asked
why we don't devote more edlto-
rial space to politicks. In reply
will say we don't give a darn for
politicks. We are after the al
mighty S. Besides the people care
about as much for the political
views OF a country editor as they
do about the warts on the nose of
the man in the moon.
We are an exception to the gen
eral rule. We like poems on
Gentle SPRING and the "Beauti
full Snow" Every person i'll the
county is trying to write on them
subjects, and they send the results
to NY. Let the good work contin-
ue. They make tha finest sort of
fire, and our office stove is red hot
all the time with the burning man
uscript. It's a great saving in
fuel.
We have inaugurated a relief
committee for the suffering poor,
and have put our application on
the list first. This is most noble
work, and we hope our subscribers
will respond literally.
Now is the time to subscribe.

CURING HAMS.
SO They Will Taste Like the
Bought Article,

Can you give me a method of
curing hams, by which al ordinary
farmer can have hams that will
taste like those putt by the large
packing houses?" This inquiry
comes from one of our subscribers,
and we are glad to be able to give
him the method by which Smith
field hams are cared. These hams
are SO well and favorably known
that they command the highest
price in the markets Of this coun-
try and Europe. The following is
the method given by an exchange:
"Sprinkle lightly the surface
with salt,peter, don't rub it in,
but let it lay on the surface. Then
pack it in ordinary (blown) salt
not in ground alum salt,) and the
third or fourth day take it up and
re-saIt with fresh salt; don't rub in.
Let a ten-pound nam remain in
salt from twelve to fifteen days. a
ffteen-poQnd ham twenty days, a
aeven-pound ham ten days. When
taken out Of salt, wash it in warm
water thoroughly clean, then pep

According to the Eupora Prog,
ress, populistically speaking, there
IS a queer state of affairs up III
Webster county. The Progress
says:
The executive committee of
the peoples party OF Webster
county has indorsed the Eupora
Times as the official organ of the
populist party. At the same meet
ing this committee passed a reso.
luton requesting no populist to
announce for nomination. In the
Progress opinion this is very
ungrateful step, in the committee.
toward its official organ. How the
editors of the Times can reconcile
themselves to such music we are
unable to see. They are first non
ored with "oflicial organ" which
IS purely an empty honor. Next
they are cut off from the public
patronage which ought to 90 to the
paper. 1t is rather astonishing
that Brother Harris don't write an
editorial on this subject, instead of
devoting so much of his time
about that great and good
man, Mr.. Grover Cleveland.

Governor Budd has inform ed Foreman

pear before that body without being sum-

When the governor takes the stand it is
thought probable that he viii be asked
some sharp questions. The reports that
he has received Will be obtained from
him if possible. Considerable time will
be given to questioning the governor con-
ccerniDg what led him to commence an
investigation which ended in a declara-
tion that the foundation is all right.
The investigation into the acts of the
'solid eight" supervisors will also be be-
gun today, and this work may take some
time. Supervisor Dimond recently gave
the grand Jurors some information in re-

The matter will be thoroughly investiga-
