Ar THE Bushnell Club meeting in
which the resolution was passed, or
dering the county officials to appoint
no Democrats as clerks or Deputies, a
direct attack upon Judge Weitzel for
retaining Polk Acker, Mr.. Willis Nc
Donald offered resolution that the
Sheriff be ordered not to call any
Democrat in making up Jury. This
is probably the most audacious speci-
men of political partisanship ever
manifested in this county. Sheriff
Ryan is good official, good citizen,
an honest, fair going man, promptly
resented the resolution as an insult
to his official integrity, Mr.Ryan is
a straight Rebublican and when poll
tics is on is at his post, and in open
manly 6ght. As an officer he is i'm
partial, and in the discharge of duty
knows no mans politics. 1t is a
good thing for the Republican party,
and for this county, that such men as
Bill Ryan belong in it.

The Lost Pleiad,

The Se:en Stars in the co iste'la
ton Taurus, are the most noted
group in the armament. u the
sweet influence of this cluster the
husbandman attributes the wealth of
his golden crop, the navigator directs
his bark by the voyage tie celestial
marinrs course the sky and from the
very beginning, TO. the Sisters Seven,
has the poet attuned his Tyre. The
Seven Stars Pleads are the seven
daughters of King Atlas translated
, to the skies on account of their besuty
and their virtues. One, Merope fell
in love with a mortal, and for this
weakness (?) her starry crown was
dimmed and she is no longer visible
TO the children of earth. We can
only see six stars, but poetry and the
gods insist upon the existence OF the
seven. The star not seen is the
"Lost Pl, ild," and to her names, in
varying fancy the poets of all times
have addressed their tunes.
In the late st. Nicholas we dis
cover this very pretty poetic gem
j from the talented pen of Miss Helen
Pursell, of our town, who in the field
of poetry has already reaped many
choice leaflets in the laurel crown.

Home Culture.

There has come to our notice re-
Gently, an enterprise which has been
organized for the purpose of educating
in their own homes, the classes of
of people who either have not had
the opportunity in the past, or who
do not now have an opportunity to
study in the public schools. To this
benefcent organization we are more
thau pleased to extend our hearty
greeting, and wish it all the success
the undertaking deserves. The one
thing which this country needs is a
more general education for the work
ing people. 1t is the idea that has led
many great thinkers to advocate home
study, particularly where outside in,
struction is not convenient. The odd
half and quarter hours, if properly
applied, will give anyone who desires
it liberal education. 1t is the man
that devotes few spare minutes
each day to study, who advances from
day laborer to foreman; who becomes
the master mechanic; the head Of the
Office.
Few persons seem to be aware, in
regard to the subject of education,
how largely willing stu
dent can dispense with external aid
The opinion, also common, that to
learn anything in sience, art, or any
of the higher branches, beyond the
fsst rudiments, the learner must place
himself in the hands of some gifted
professor, and carry on his labor i'll
the atmosphere Of the class room, Is a
mischievous delusion.
While We would not dccry our
magnificent system of public schools,
we believe that some system of home
training is absolutely necessary in
order that men in all classes ard con-
ditions of life may fit themselves for
iife's work. Not only is it necessary
fer our citizens to understand some
thing of what is commonly called the
higher branches of education, but it
is also an essential qualification that
they should have a thorough training
in business methods, including busi-
ness laws, business arithmetic, short
hand, and book keeping. In short
to achieve success in life, it is neces-
sary that men be trained in that which
will prove the most serviceable to
them in their voca,ions.
Within the last few years many
prominent educators haYe endeavored
to devise means which would supply
this great public need. The remark
able movement known as University
Extension, the formation of Chataqua
circles, the establishment of night
schools for laboring men, are all evil
dences of this desire to bring self-ed-
ucation within the reach of every citi-
zen. The most recent attempt to solve
the great problem1of home education
is the establishment of the Co-Opera-
tive Educational Association. at Ann
Arbor, Michigan, the seat of the great
University of Michigan. This Associ-
alton having for its purpose the aid
and encouragement of these who de-
sire to pursue home study, is desirous
of extending its work over the great
er part of the United States, and in
order that it may do so, desires the
hearty cooperation of educators and

THE SILVER TONGUED
BLOWS A LAST BAXOO.

M. I.ucian iiull, local politician
of Ward township, and a somewhat
noted campaign orator among the
Hungarians and Niggers of that dis
trict WAS given Benefit Meeting by
the Bushnell Club at theOpera House
on last Saturday evening.
A large crowd was present, and
good humor prevailed, the perform
ance costing nothing. criticism was
OF course not polite.
Plof. Hull is q good declaimer. He
has clear. ringing we'll modulated
voice, and his gesticulation is grace
full, tender and tragic.
His speech was kind of patch
work, odds and ends of his campaign
harangue stitched together in crazy
quilt style, and Was altogether funny
because there was no point, no head
nor tail to it. Co.,
The meeting though did have some
serious parts.
Judge Bright who was confined and
gagged during the campaign,escap
from his guards, and took occasion to
make his intended campaign speech.
He spoke on labor, the part the Re-
publican party had in advancing the
interests of the men in the Valley.
Singuraly the Judge forgot that the
introduction of the industrial leprosy
in our mining regions was the work OF
Republican management and the
maintenance of barbarian element by
Pinkertons and military was the ac'
of Republican rulers, in accord with
Republican policy. But the Judge
was little rusty, and the question
now is not one of argument.
The best features of the entertain
ment was the part taken by the Gle'
Club. The Club was silent. The Clul
had travelled 26S miles,expenses paid
we think these are the fignres giyer
out, had travelled deadbeating it
travel, and was tired, at least no
having promise of free ride and fret
lunch, and not have political enthusi
asm and did not sing. This silenc'
was indeed golden.
A narrowing subject was brough
up at the close. This was the Flag
business. The Club had promised I
flag to the township making tn
"largest Republican gain" and tn
, presentation wss to have been mad
this evening. Henry Woodwork
; the Recording Angel Of the Club ant
of the meeting, stated that, the calcu
la.ion on the problem had not beer
completed. The case is this: 1t i
claimed that Marion township mad
+ the largest gain, more votes by count
Benton the largest gain, a greater pc
. cent; Coalgate the largest, gain tn
greatest increase in majority. Th'
, Club is in great distraction and do no
know what to do.
1t is our suggestion, made in th
spirit of harmony that fhe question b
, referred to the school examiners. LIE

CONFESSED SHE DIDN'T DO IT.
The Little Girl Disappointed the E1-
pectatfons of Her Guilty Mates.

The Little Girl Disappointed the Ex-
pectations of Her Guilty Mates.
Something dreadful had happened at
the Queensville district school, says
Philadelphia Times. May Greene, the
belle of the village, had smuggled her
Sunday sash out of the bureau, and.
'unbeknownst to her mother" had
worn it to school. Her triumph, how
ever, was short-lived. She had hung
the sash most carefully on hook in the
clOakroom while she ran out at recess
for a good romp. On her return she
was dismayed to find that it had been
cut in two pieces. Every scholar was
carefully questioned, but no one, Of
course, knew anything about it. The
teacher accordingly announced that
when the afternoon session should open
she would lay all lessons aside and hold
a court of investigation. She herself
would be the judge. May Greene should
be the plaintiff and every scholar in
turn should come up into a witness
box, rigged up for the occasion, and tell
exactly what he knew about the mat
ter. She also said that if anyone would
confess his wrong-dcing before the
opening of court he would be pardoned
and all proceedings stopped. Two guilty
boys, discarded beaux of the gay
coquette, were now pale with dismay.
They had told untruths when privately
questioned and now they feared they
would not be able to brave them out
before the awful court ordeal-es-
pecially since it had begun to be whis-
pered around that they knew more of
| the matter than had at first appeared.
They therefore hit upon the following
expedient: The youngest child in the
school. little Annie Cork, was the pet
of the county. If she now could be in
duced to confess to the cutting of the
sash surely she would be pardoned on
account of her popularity. She was
| therefore beset by the guilty young
| sters, who, by dint of dire threats and
lar bribes, and by urging confession
upo her as duty, finally secured her
bew1dered consent ito confess" When
the afternoon bell rang the scholars
came in promptly, looking askance at
the awful witness box and at the mutt
lated fnery floating out from the teach
er's desk. The judge was about to open
court. when in came the criminals
/ triumphantly leading the innocent
child between them. They informed
the judge that Annie Cork had conne to
confess, and, off1ciously placing her on
the witness stand, they withdrew to
their seats. The child's helpless atti-
tude was too much for the tender
hearted judge, who took her by the
hand and said gently, "Wen, dear.
have you really come to confess?"
"Yeth," she faltered, oppressed by
the earnest stiffness in the room; but,
gaining courage from the judges kind
ly manner, 'Yeth, teacher-Ith come TO
confeth-Pth come to confetti that
didn't do it."

A new use has been found for balloon
sleeves, through the ingenuity of an
enterprising inventor, which promises
great results.
s.The hustle inside the sleeves has
up to date been adopted somewhat
wariIy, as hardly filling a long-felt
want. But now a silk life-preserver
is to take its place, which can be in
nated at will, and enables the wearer
to float in perfect ease on the water.
Sailing parties made up largely OF
ladies will leave the man at the helm
very much at ease, with each female
member OF the company transformed
into an animated life-preserver; for if
ones moves carelessly on the deck and
gets blown overheard there is no dan
ger of a tragedy. The balloons will also
add no little to the sail area in fair
winds The life-saving sleeve will
doubtless prove a big thing, and all
that it is puffed up to be.
