stead, OF Little River Blount
county Tenn. where he spent his
entire life Of more than 03 years
dying Feb. 6. 1880 except giving a
few years on or near Bakers Greek.
He was made IA mason in 1852
and for more than AZ years faith
fully kept the obligations of our
sacred order, nobly performing his
part to promote its Interests. Per-
haps no man of his county did so
much to alleviate the suffering OF
the poor as he. For long, long
time he looked after the widows
and orphans OF his community, in
a large measure supplying their
temporal wants from his smoke
house and garner, actually giving
to the Lord thousands of dollars
for the Saviour Himself said, ain as
much as we did e unto one OF tIese
the least of ny brethren We did il
unto me-"
He professed religion when hi

Methodist Church remaining {
member of the same until death.
Owing to the illness Of his paste
Rev. Murphy, the funeral services
were conducted on behalf Of TIN
church by Rev. Jackson of Mary
willie after which his brethren 0
the fraternity took charge Of hi
remains and in due and ancien
form laid him away to rest il
the family bury.ng ground to avail
the resurrection. Although it wal
bitter cold, and diagreable III tht
extreme, still large concourse o
relatives and friends were gather
ed, thereby showing the esteem il
which he was held. Let us die the
death of the righteous and let on;
end be like his.

The republicans-well, you know
the story of the boy who got his
father to get down on all tours to
teach bull pup how to fight. 1t
will be remembered that when the
bull pup grabbed the old man by
the nose tie boy, instead Of inter-
fering, shouted: "Stick to him, dad
it'll be the making of the pupw the
average republican feels about this
fight between the silver democrats
and the gold democrats just as the
boy of the story did about the fight
between his dad and the bull pup
Whichever way 1t ends it will but
add to the certainty Of the election
of a republican President, next
year.

POLITICS AT WASHINGTON.

Mr.. Cleveland has removed the
last vestage Of doubt rs to there
being split in the national demo-
cratic party and has virtually an
nounced himself to be the candi-
date of the sirgle gold standard
wing of the party. This created no
surprise in Washington. 1t has
been foreshadowed in this paper
for months past. Whether both
wings will insist upon calling them
selves the democratic party, or the
silver democrats will join the popu-
lists or the Sibley silver party is
not yet plain. 1t will depend large
~ upon the effect of Mr.. Cleve-
lands declaration upon the rank
and file of the democratic party in
the south, and that effect will in
turn depend somewhat upon the
result of the campaigns now being
waged in the states of Illinois and
Kentucky. Mr.. Cleveland and his
followers believe that if the silver
element in the democratic party In
those two states can be beaten this
year that the bulk of the democrat
ic party in the south will accept
Mr.. C!eveland's financial ideas and
will support him for President
again. I he " hole power Of the adj
ministra ton is to be used against
the silver democrats in those two
states. 1t is already certain that
three members of the Cabinet-Car'
Isle, Wilson, and Gresham-wil
take the stump against silver.

or course the public has long ago
ceased to expect anything bene-
fetal or courageous from the demo-
cratic administration, but it was
hardly prepared for the admission
of absolute helplessness made by
Secretary Morton, when he said:
"If anything is done to bring relief
from beef extortions now going for.
ward the papers will have to do it,"
Can you imagine any combination
OF circumstance that would have
made Secretary Morton's predeces-
sor at the head of the Department
of Agriculture--ihe late lamented
Jerry Rusk, of Wis.-use language
of that sort?

The administration also proposes
to fight silver in tie south. A
southern democratic anti-silver
convention is to be held at Mem
phis, Tennessee, on May q, at
which the principal address is to be
delivered by Secretary Carlisle.
Representative Patterson, of Ten
nessee, who was in Washington
this week confcring with Mr.. Cleve-
land and the other members of the
administration, says every south
ern state will be largely represent
ed al the convention, which is TO
be, he says, made the beginning of
an aggressive campaign against sill
yer in the south.

There is certainly no doubt about
the Presidential preference of Rep
resentative Gillett, of Massachu-
sets, who was in Washington this
week. When asked what he knew
of the political situation, he replied
"Nothing, except that New Eng
land is solid and enthusiastic for
Tom Reed for President. From
the Speakers chair to the White
House would be a natural and mer.
ited promotion for this MAJ, who in
point of Wit, brains and statesman
ship is the peer of any living Amer

Making Sugar from Ga..

According to German "Review of
Science for the Year 1884," there is q
process now under trial in that country
and also in France for making sugar
alphabetically" by means of common
illuminating gas. The gas first enters
box provided with porous partition
upon which platinum has been depos-
tied by some secret process known only
to the inventor. The platinum parti-
cles act upon the atoms of gas and
those OF the vapor which is introduced
at the proper time In close contact in
this manner, condensation ard precipi-
tation occur, the residue being COM
mercial sugar OF great purity and of
highest grade. The cost is said to be
much less than that Of producing beet
sugar, and the owners of the gas sugar
making secret claim that they will
eventually drive all other sugar pro-
ducers out Of the business.

modiste to order gown of the latest
decollete type, and the unfortunate
with lean scapula and sharp collar-bone
gives her gymnastic professor a months
notice, and orders her gown for the
same date.
So much for the cut of cne's evening
gown. The three favorite colors will
be brought into prominence at the bal
poudre, to be given by New Yorks
smartest set on February Is.
These colors are pink, white and yell
low and must be cleverly manipulated
IN order to make them harmonic.
However, the French dressmaker usu-
ally attends to that.
Those shades of pink that have sug-
gestion of yellow in them-apricot,
salmon, and the like, combine well
with pinks, yellows and cream whites.
At any rate the idea is new and start
ling and this delights the Parisienne.
Only French woman would dare to
initiate such combination, but the
American damsel is not slow to follow
her lead. Fancy yellow satin bodice,
with apricot velvet sleeve puffs, draped
with flmy lace, and the whole blended
| with passementrie that combines the
three tints. Even the blonde has
taken to wearing yellow, contrary to
all the old superstitions that only dark
beauties are entitled to decorate them
selves with this glorious tint
Not all Of the new bodiceS show the
odd combination Of which have been
speaking. One that was assigned by o
!, clever Frenchwoman, not a modiste,
shows an exquisite fan-plaited effect in
front, made Of very pale rose-pink lace.
1t starts from one shoulder, spreads
across the top and side of the deeper
rose satin bodice, which is trimmed at
the waist with band of roses. The
balloon-puffed sleeves, severely stiff
fened. are Of stone gray velvet The
| graceful bow, tied at the right shoul-
der, falling in streamers over the skirt,
matches the sleeves.

SCOTCH PATRIOTISM.

ceWney was wee But He Was Also

The Scotch of the present day are
patriotic, but not inclined TO militarism.
The recruiting sergeant goes among
starving crofters and idle workmen, but
he finds few willing to take the royal
shilling and serve their country as SOL
diers- A writer in the Scotch Review
says that this reluctance to enlist,
shown by Scotchmen, is due to craze
for personal independence and to a
rooted dislike to strict discipline.
well no part with oor lubertyl" is
sswney's response to the appeal to fol-
low his country's flag. By way Of con-
trast to this reluctance, the writer tells
an incident illustrative of the martial
spirit which animated the young
Scotch recruit of former days.
The intended recruit was brought up
to the orderly-room for inspection by
the commanding officer of the regiment.
On being measured, he was found to be
q trifle under the regimental standard
Of height.
He was strong built and likely
looking young fellow, and therefore
the colonel reluctantly decided that he
could not be accepted. Expressing his
regret, he told the recruit that he was
too short to be enlisted.

recruit, "yell surely no turn me backl
I'm wee, but I'm tcicked." (''Wicked"
was Scotch for spunky, mettled.)

THE cZARiNA'S FINERY.

She Twists Her Young HusbSI Round
Her Fingers in "a Delightful Way.
We have been hearing some very
pretty stories Of the young czarina's 8
kind heart and benevolent instincts,
and the manner in which she is alleged
to bc twisting the ear round her fin
gers is described as perfectly delightful
frota an English standpoint With all
her graces and virtues, however. Alex
anSra Feodorovna has a woman's love
for finery and trinkets. aud she is Civ
ing evidence of an intention OF indulg-
ing it to the utmost. She has Just
given Copenhagen jeweler a truly re-
gal order for diamond coronet and a
necklace of oriental pearls. The coro-
net, which is to be framed of Greek
crosses and worn in the Grecian knot of
her hair, will cost two hundred and
forty thousand dollars and the necklace
will be worth three hundred and forty
thousand dollars.
Besides the rich jewels that belong of
right to the czarina. presents galore
are pouring in upon the young empress.
The shah of Persia sent her superb
pearl necklace, which has quite his
tory of its own. In reaching the Rus
sian capital, says a society tattler, this
necklace only returns to its original
home. 1t originally belonged to Cath
crime the Great, who was so fond of it
that she used to sleep with it around
her neck
But greatly attached to it though she
was, Catherine for some reason or other
gave it to one of her two Orloff favor
ties, who took it first to Germany and
the 1 to Paris with him. In the French
capital he met with that extraordinary
adventurer, st. German, the magician,
who went into the best circles, was a
great favorite with the king, and, in
fact, ruled the court society of the day.
This brilliant charlatan, who used to
assert that he was over eighteen hun
dred years old and had known the Sa-
yiour in Jerusalem, bought this neck
lace from Orloff and sold it to the Per
sian envoy.
Thus it found its way to the land of
the lion and the sun, whence 1t is now
returned to the land of the bear.

Physical culturists are bending their
energies to the development of those
soft, rounding shoulders which were
the pride of danes and damsels of early
century days. Our grandmothers wera
dependent upon the freaks and vaga-
ries Of nature for these attractions, but
inventive genius has not confined itself
to the discovery of new kinds of flying
machines or new remedies for deadly
disease. Science has stretched out in
every direction, and in its search after
blessings for the good Of humanity it
has not overlooked woman's first con-
sideration-her beauty. For years the
efforts in this direction have been ex-
pended upon means for adding to ma
lures gifts by artificial help. Face
washes, hair dyes and innumera BILE
paddings were the result. But since
women have turned their minds to more
important matters they find very little
time to apply these artificial charms,
and of late the tendency has been to
aid nature in her effort to bring her
subject to its highest perfection. rather
than supplement her work when it has
only had half q chance for completion.
Women have discovered that the body

DAINTY POWDER PUFFS.
Cost the Lives Of Nearly Twenty Thousand
Young swan Every Year.


A new count in the indictment against
woman in the matter of her craving for
plumage ornaIxentation is found in the
way in which it is said the needs of her
dressing table are supplied
An English journal warns the Lon
don ladies that their powder puffs,
those airy necessities of the toilet, are
heavy with the blood of slaughtered in
nocents.
1t is stated that as many as twenty
thousand young swans-cygnets, as
they are called-are killed every year
to supply this dainty fluff, to say moth
Ing OF innumerable young birds of the
elder duck and wild goose variety.
The bulk of these are imported-the
swan and geese from the islands of the
Baltic and from Norway and Sweden,
and the elders from the northern and
more icebound seas
One cygnet will make nearly dozen
average-sized 'puffs, which shows how
many women must be, to greater or
less extent, addicted to the use of pow
der.
The puff trade is highly profitable,
as may be judged from the fact
that the down of cygnet costs a
little more than twenty-five cents,
the poor creature often being plucked
alive so that it may bear another crop,
while the puffs are sold at from seven
ty-five cents upward, nicely mounted in
bone and blue or pink satin, which ad-
tuncts amount to comparatively moth
ing.
The ladies OF Paris and Vienna are
the largest consumers Of puffs, owing
chiefly to their fastidiousness in casting
aside puffs as soon as they lose their
pristine delieacy.
