Simply the Modern City EmDOrIum on

How the old country store used TO

should buy everything at one place
from hsirpIn TO . pound OF sugar
was cause to "clty folks" Of inextin.

Of all sorts and conditions Of things to

OF country stores, and vindicaiss the

most advanced Nineteenth Century
enterprise.
The extent to which the country
store Idea is carried In the cities Is
Impressed upsn rs every once In q
while IN a general way, but few Of us
appreciate that extent when Il comes
down to particulars. The book trade
has undoubtedly suffered the most
from the bargain counter. A city Of
the standing and culture OF Spring.
field, Mass, has no longer any book
store. The last one has succumbod to
the rivalry Of the dry goods store.
Not long ago there were complaints
that the dry goods stores In Brooklyn
were selling liquors, aud there was
talk Of boycotting them by the tenn
perruce people. What the result was
we do not recall. But the matter is
a striking Illustration Of the revived
country store. There was q we'll
known family of Litchfield whose
wealth can be traced back to q coun-
try store, one that made its money
largely by selling rum in addition to
dry goods anc grocers and miscallan-
eous articles. Asd this country store
actually grew to such dimenaons that
II used Itself TO import many Of the
goods 1t sold, and did q considerable

branch of trade In New York to com.

drip goods stores. All OF this goes tc
show that we live In circle. W.

country ideas we left behind us. Then
when our city notions have become
pretty well settled We 20 back to those
discarded ideas aud work them oveI
In new shape. We dsspius the coun

by offering "bsrgains' induces th,

10 Indiana was going through the

mIssisnafy work In the South. He
ssid his heart yearned over the sin
esrfea darkness Of that goddess and
uufegeuerste land, where children
grew up In half savage ignorance ;
where no church spires pointed
hesvenward from the peaceful, pain,
and where murder stalked abread at
all hours armed with smoking revel-
Yer and bloody bowie knife. "Why,
brethren, said the zealous missionary,
al am told that In that sinful land
every farm has great building on 1t
called gin house, where the bevsr-
age Of bell Is dispensed 10 men, women
and children until the maddened
crowd rush forth to deeds of violence

Nov this reverend vilifer Ger
lesped himself eighty In his zeal ;

In q letter received from q promi-
nent aud well known gentleman Of

"You arc doing q good work for the
Delta With false impressions remov'

Wholesale Poisoning.

A warrant was issued yesterday for
A. A. Smith, charging him with hav-
ing administered poison with intent to
kill Edward Laird, Amonico Echeve
ria and three Indians named Dan
Foster Jack and Gene Griswold. at a
place near Deep Hole, in the northern
part of this county. 1t seems that
there has been bad feeling existing
between Laird and Smith for some
time and on the 9Th of October Laird,
Echeveria and the Indians left the
camp to hunt or round up some cat
tie. They returned to Laird's camp
on the 9th instant and soon afterwards
proceeded to get dinner. Bread,
meat and beans were cooked and salt
from a can which Laird had among
his stores was used in the cooking
process. When the meal was ready
and they began to eat of the food they
had prepared Echeveria noticed a pc
culiarly bitter taste and remarked
that he believed poison had been put
into something. At this the others
noticed it and all quit eating and be
gan an investigation. Each article
of food was closely examined and
Echeveria discovered crystals III the
salt, which he was convinced were
strychnine and he carefully selected a
few of them, put them in some meat
and fed the meat TO cat. In the
meantime liberal doses of bacon
grease, lard, ETC., were taken by the
men md the actions Of the cat
watched with interest. The men only
had to watch a short time to satisfy
themselves that the cat was poisoned
and it soon died. The grease the men
had taken acted as an emetic and
made them all very sick, but had they
not thought of this remedy 1t is more
than probable that they would have
all lost their lives.
Officers have gone out after Smith
and will arrest him on suspicion, and
he will likely Oe brought in to-mor-

The Venezuelan Trouble,

WASHINGTON, Oct 22.-As it be.
come more evident the British gov
eminent is disposed to make it appear
that the Uruan incident is parallel to
the Corinto affair and may therefore
be treated in the same fashion with
out leading to international difficult
ties. Officials here are pointing out
the essential points of the difference
in the two incidents and Bayard
will doubtless be instructed to en-
phasize these in further representa-
tons to the British foreign office.
Great Britain obtained indemnity
from Nicaragua on the ground that
her national honor had been outrag-
ed by the summary expulsion of her
representative, even though he was
only humble consular agent.
The United States consented to
stand aloof on this occasion on the
theory that that nation had right to
redress an insult. But in the Uruan
affair it cannot be maintained for an
instant that the British government
has right to demand redress for the
arrest of its officers. 1t shall be first
established they were within British
territory. Nothing but an agreement
upon the exact location of the bound
airy line can settle this point.
