The Snow Owl.

The northern or snow owl that
was shot in TIE Ninth district Il
short time since and of which
mention was made by the MIDLAND
JOURNAL at the time, was stuffed
and mounted by Mr.. George Sol
lers and placed on exhibition in the
show window of Mr.. Eli L. Reyn
Odds. Nature has carefully pro-
vided the bird with ample protec-
ton against the intense cold and
winter storms of his native region.
A heavy tuft of long, fine feathers
covers the birds head and back
of the neck, which completely
sheds snow and wet, insuring com,
fort and warmth. Its feet, on top
and bottom, are clothed in the same
impenetrable, to cold, covering,
only the long, curved, sharp claws
protruding. The bird is almost
entirely snow white, there being
only few gray feathers fecking
its sides.
The great northern snow owl is
in appearance, except in color of
plumage and size, similar to the
large night owl of this region, and
whose "to whit to hoo-hoo," from
the woods on summer evenings is
familiar to every one living in the

Chickens and not Whisky,

The darkies of Elkton are the
disturbing element of the town.
Numbers of them come to town in
the late trains from Newark, and
they were suspected with import
ing whisky from the latter place to
keep the Elkton Sabbath in a
proper manner. In order to break
up the Saturday night liquor I'M
portation business detective w. Il.
Jones last Saturday night boarded
the midnight train to investigate
the matter. He saw negro with
a bag hiding himself on the plat
form of the baggage car, He caught
the man by the coat but the gar
ment parted and the man escaped
leaving his bundle behind. The
bag contained six live chickens and
five dead ones. What became of
the chickens the reporter does not
say.

rluSt Pay i'm Future.

Hereafter the Pennsylvania Rail
road Co. will charge the city pub
fishers for the transportation of
newspapers in the baggage cars
over its lines. The company has
rendered this service gratuitously
for many years, but the increase in
circulation and size compelled it to
make a nominal charge for the
service.
This is piece Of tardy justice to
the country papers. These city
dailies flood every country town
and Village with their papers and
pay not cent postage or for trans
portation. Their agents pace the
streets all day and every day hawk
ing their papers in competition
with the local papers. Their Sun
day editions are the greatest bun
dies of ''literary' trash that the
world never before witnessed.

The Friends Normal Institute.

Miss May Rodney is principal,
present school year, of Friends
Normal Institute of Rising Sun.
A pleasant hour was spent last
Wednesday in witnessing Miss
Rodney putting her classes through
their lessons. From the little tot
commencing to practice making
marks with pencil to the advanced
student in Latin and German, she
led on with the same persuasive
ease and gentle manner. American
history, science of government, pc
litical economy, natural history,
Caesar and Virgil classes were all
guided through those rough or
slippery paths of learning which
try the teachers patience and tax
the pupils brain. Teachers, like
inventor, poets and orators, are
born not made. Many learned men
and women are teaching who are
hardly to be called teachers, but
Miss Rodney is not of that class.
Her scepter of gentle persuasive
power all who feel obey.
Her school numbers twenty
pupils and she could manage ten
more without neglecting any she
thinks. If parents would pay a
visit to her class rooms the absent
ten, there is little doubt would soon
be forthcoming.

The Farmers Institute.

The farmers institute was COM
menced in the Elkton Opera House
Wednesday morning, in charge of
Director w. L. Amoss. The attend
ance at the morning session was a
disappointment, as the lecturers
assigned to this county are among
the best of the staff and the sub
iects interesting. The subject of
the morning session was "Fertil-
izers," and was admirably handled
by Mr.. II. j. Patterson. At the
afternoon session "The Dairy
Herd" was the subject of a dis
course by Hon. Geo. 7. Powell, and
"The Corn Crop" was the subject
of the lecture of Jas. L. Rice. At
the night session Mr.. Powell lectur-
ed on "Nature Study for Children"
and a large audience greeted the
speaker.
The institute was held at Rising
Sun yesterday, Thursday. The
weather was fine and large au-
dience attended the sessions. The
program was carried out as an
nounced and much interest aroused
among farmers in favor of the insti-
tute. We are obliged to close the
forms and go to press before re-
port of the proceedings can be had.

Those Who Endure

The pains of rheumatism should be re-
minded that cure for this disease may
be found in Hoods Sarsaparilla. The
experience of those who have taken
Hoods Sarsaparilla for rheumatism, and
have been completely and permanently
cured, prove the power of this medicine
to rout and conquer this disease. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is the One True Blood Puri-
fer and 1t nrutrali4es the acid which
causes the aches and pains ofrheumatism.
This is why it absolutely cures when lin
iments and other outward applications
fail to give permanent relief. Be sure to
get Hoods.
