AD@OLUgEEY PURE
Bad Drinking Water.

Too much stress cannot be put upon
the necessity Of pure drinking water.
Not only is it important for villages
and cities, but too eften the location
OF the we'll on farm has been a -=..at.
ter of indifference. Either from care
lessness or ignorance it has been made
where It will take surface drainage or
from some underground fssure re-
cei7e water from the barn or, worse
yet, seepage from the kitchen slops or
other house drainage.
The following sad experience affords
q warning: Mishawaka, little vii
lsee near South Bend, Ind, had been
visited annually By contagious disease
causing many deaths. Three months
ago an epidemic Of diphtheria broke
out, which quickly spread over the
entire village, and caused e number Of
deaths. Workrien engaged on an
electric plant were obligel to shut off
the water yesterday and drain the
reservoir from which the water mains
of M;shawaka are supplied. The bed
OF the pit was found covered with
dead Esh, snakes, eels, cats, dogs, and
other animals. The vorSmen who at
tempted to clean the pit wero over

All of the water used in Mishawaaa

FREE SILVER.

Free Silver seems to be the popu-
lar side for politicians just now. 1t
is impossible to tell what turns may
be taken but it is extremely probable
that the Free Silvcritcs will carry
the election next time by large
ma ority. OF course it is all too
soon to commence the national cam
paign as it is how about eighteen
months before the election, but the
people have taken the subject in
hand and the press will no doubt
TEEN with Il war Of words until the
next election.
Speaker c. +. Crisp is Free
Silver man and makes no secret Of
it. lie says that it is the great issue
before us. In Il recent interview
given to the Associate Press he says:
1T will be the great issue and
must be settled directly, not by sub
terfugc or evasion, but openly, so
that the people may understand it.
1t will not down. The fact that
progress i'll silver rehabilitation has
been slow should not be discourag-
ing. This is big country, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, with
probably 7o,UOo.UOU Of the most
civilized people in the world. The
basis of all law with us is the will OF
the people. When after years of
discussion and often contrary action,
they Madc up their minds for tariff
reform, there was no power on earth
strong enough TO resist it. The sill
Yer question is going through the
same course Of pubic discussion.
1t is meeting with defeats and victo-
rcs Just in the same ratio rs charac-
tcrizcd the tariff fight. Just as i'll
that fight, the silver men will have
their battle royal: then the -Amcri-
can people will award the victory.
The majority Of tic american
people in both political parties are
IN tavor of the restoration Of the free
coinage of silver. They are con-
scrvatIvc people, respecting all rights
and moving slowly that they may
not disturb them. They may DC re-
pressed once III while. but once
hey take up apucstion, there will
be no cessation until it is brought to
a elimination. The american peo-
pie are today behind the free silver
and they will push it on
to success and have siivv: rc-c>iab-
i>heI 10 its old equality with gold.

BELLE BOYD.
The Famous "Rebel Spy"
Now a Resident Of
South Carolina.

puDllc the tact that the celebrated
Belle Boyd is now living at Ca amden,
s. c., and recently lectur ed in York
vile, entertaining a large audience
with highly realistic and dramatic
narrative Of her adve ntures and
achievements as scout nd spy for
'"Stonewall' Jackson in the famous
Shenandoah Valley campaign.
The speaker commenced her story
with the occupation of Martinsburg,
sVa., her native town-now in West
Eyirginia-by the Federal troops.
She managed to slip out Of the town,
gave Jackson information as to the
numbers and intentions of the enemy,
and got back without being suspic-
ioned. Later, the Federals discov-
cred her identy as spy, managed TO
capture her, and sent her to the Old
Capitol prison ut Washington, where
she remained for nearly seven weeks,
and was finally exchanged as pris-
oner ofwar. Twice she was sentenced
by the Fcderals to be shot, and both
times her life was saved by threats
of retaliation on the part OF the Con-
federates. lin 1861 she was sent by
Jefferson Davis on an important mis-
sion to London: but the blockade
runner on which she sailed WAS cap
tnrcit by Federal cruiser. and she
was brought back to New York. In
the meantime, a Federal lieutenant
named Hardin had fallen in love with
her, and she agreed to marry him
if he would effect the escape Of
her captain, give her copy OF the
signal book of the Federal nav, and
iom the Confedcracv. The lirutcM-
ant accepted the conditions, carried
them out and the two escaped to
London; where they were married il
;hc presence of the Prince Of Wales.
Shortly attcrward. her husband died,
and after the proclamation of Il zen
cral amnesty. She returned to Amer

married to Maj. Hammond. After

Food provision is the objects for which birds
periodically change their dwelling places. The
soyereigns, the bishops, the barons OF old and
medieval times when they had exhausted the
resources of one estate moved on to another.
This was the reason of the constant journeys
of our ancestors in the days gone when each
district provided for its own needs. The fash
ion among birds still prevails. Hence the great
wave of bird life constantly ebbing and flow
ing high up in the ocean of air; hence the reg
ular migrations so wonderful in the distances
and dangers little birds compass in their long
fight over thousands of miles; hence the titful
fittings which, on small scale, distinguish
even the birds that are classified as stationary
species.
There is no food at all left for the birds in the
higher arctic regions in winter; plants, fish, in
sects are killed or buried in the ice and snow;
the vast hordes of JENNINGS, little creatures
near akin to the voles that have made such
ravages on the sheep farms OF Southern Scot
land of late years. leave these high ATTITUDES;
there is nothing left even for birds OF prey
In the summer, wild luxuriance of forest,
field and fen, shoals OF fish in the great rivers
and the deep blue sea- swarms of insects flying
in dense clouds over field and ford and steppe
and birds in teeming multitudes-sea birds,
river BIRDS sand birds, hill-loving birds, wood
haunting birds, field birds, birds big and birds
little, myriad hosts OF birds. In the winter,
frozen seas icebound rivers, iron hills snow
clad forests snowy fields, no fish no insects, no
seeds no berries no worms visible even to
sharp bird eyes; therefore, no birds.
In the countries bordering on the polar seas,
where the changing seasons bring alternately
the two extremes of dearth and plenty, birds
are more numerous in the short summer than
anywhere else all the world over, and in the
winter absent altogether. All are migrants
there by force OF circumstances.

dispatches give further details of the

noon, on January 18th. This was fol-

the town WAS in ruins. Eleven thous
sand persona persisted, it is stated. Most
of this victims were crushed TO death by
falling buildings, but many were burned
to death, the ruins in which they were
entangled having caught FIRE; 600 were
entombed in mosque while engaged in
prayer. Six hundred other persons per-
ished in the various baths. The eur
vivors could obtain neither food or
water for three days. Many who ea'
capped being killed by the earthquake
persisted from hunger and exposure.
The weather was very cold. Not sim

Since January 18th the shocks have
been repeated daily. One shock on the
evening OF January 22d was as severe as
the one which destroyed the city, and
was followed By three othere at inter-
walls OF from one TO four hours.
