BROUGHT THE PEOPLE OUT.
Battery Caused CommOtion on the
Streets Last Might.

Battery A, light artillery, scared the
wits out of about 500 people who were
on the streets at 10 o'clock last night.
The boys took out their cannons on the
corner of Market and First streets.
Bang went a great big charge of pow
der that made the tall buildings trem-
BILE. The attention of everybody was ar
rested. Bang it went again, and every
body ran, boys beating tattoo on the
sidewalks as far north as Oak street.
By the time five charges were fired the
men and women and children in the
reighborhood were out in their night
clothes scrambling for cyclone cellars.
Usually when the boys fire off these
old guns some of their number either
get killed or crippled; last night was
en- exception, as nobody WIS hurt.

Heretofore as our means have been
received only from the county We have
been obliged to limit our work to that
district. But now that we are 10 have
a state appropriation we feel that we
must enlarge our borders and extend
helping hand to the humblest little
CneS all over our state. We are glad
to be able to do this and pray the t'a-
Their to grant us all needed wisdom and
grace and strength to take up and car
fry on successfully this larger work.
The wisdom OF the board in putting
Mrs. Townsend into the presidents
chair last May has been shown by the
able manner in which She has discharg-
ed the duties of her Office. We know
she accepted this position under pro-
test, and with many miSgivingS, being
young and entirely inexperienced in
such work. But the burden seemed
laid upon her and feeling il to be her
duty. she accepted it for His sake, to
whom she has consecrated her life.
Faithfully has she discharged that du-
ty; shrinking no burden, shrinking
from nothing that seemed TO be for the
good of the Home. and convincing all
that she was the right woman in the
right place. OF our good matron we
need only TO repeat what has been
ful to her trust. Truly there is but one
'Auntie Craig Since our last election
a number of changes have taken place
on the board. We have lost some faith
full workers, much TO our regret, but
others have been graciously raised up
to take their places, so that the work
has not been hindered. We have still
one vacancy on the board, but hope to
start the new year with full directory
with this brief backward glance let
us lay our years work at the Masters
feet, leaving results TO Him, asking
only that he viii fcorgive that which
is faulty and bless that which is good.
Then placing our hands in His let us
step out with faith and hope and c0ur-
age into the untrodden path before US,
hoping and asking and expecting great
or things than ever we have done be-
fore. only and always and all in His
name. MRS. J. L DYER.

Midsummer Dizziness.

The week. news is not entirely en-
couraging, but is all the more natural
because of the signs of midsummerdu dull
ness. Wheat prospects are not quite so
good as last week, but still there are
lower prices, as corn and cotton have
been lowered. The exports of gold and
the less favorable treasury returns for
July are not unexpected and mean
nothing as to coming business. There
is perceptible decrease in the demand
for most manufactured products, and
the actual distribution to consumers
naturally lessons in midsummer. Much
of the recent buying was to anticipate a
rise in prices, and such purchases fall
off when prices have risen. There are
still numerous advances in wages, but
strikes grow more numerous and i'm
portant. In part because business was
unusually large in the first half of July,
quiet tone meets reasonable eXpecta-
tions.-Dun's Review.

Our readers are given in another column
the statements of leading local druggists in
regard to a matter which is of great import,
ance to the health of this community. These
gentlemen, who are all shrewd and expert
enced business men, acknowledge that the
sales of Hoods Sarsaparilla are larger than
those of any other blood purifier. Druggists
all over the country say the same thing
This testimony, together with an unequalled
record of cures, is the most convincing evi
dence that could be produced of the peculiar
the people here and elsewhere have found
that Hoods Sarsaparilla is an honest medi

fail and will keep them in good health by

of an article of genuine merit.

Seven Day Adventists.

The Adventists say that no punish
ment and no human power can force
them to work on Saturday, their Sab
bath. If they gain this point the chain
gang will get only five days work in
the week out of them.
Upon the whole, these scrupulous
religionists are very inconvenient citi-
zens to have in community. When
at liberty they want to disregard our
Sunday, but in the chain gang they
will claim two rest days in the week,
Saturday as a matter Of conscience,
and Sunday as matter of law.-At-

WALPOLE.

The Walpole grange is prosperous
society. 1t now numbers 40 members
from the principal farming homes of
the town. 1t proves to be an excellent
stimulus to social and literary improve
ment. Many youth, both male and
female, here finds opportunity for the
display and development of talents
which otherwise would be hidden UNI
der bushel. A few weeks ago the
women took charge of affairs for an
evening and treated the men to a col
lection of good things, both gustatory
and literary, the latter being some
what suggestive of the coming woman's
position. Last Tuesday evening the
men returned the compliment and
showed their ability in presenting
tables loaded with viands and taste
fully decorated, with music and stage
entertainment for large attendance.
1t would be a delicate task to under
take to say which sex eXcelled the
other in liberal provision and general
good feeling. There seems to be just
enough secrecy and ritual in the grange
to serve as cement to unite its men,
bers in society of friends who may
well emulate each other in good works.
