Col. Balm is Eloquent.

The fifth and last lecture in the pub
lie school course was delivered by Col.
George w. Bain, Of Lexington, KY, in
Assembly hall last Friday evening to a
large and appreciative audience. In
Prof. Lenkerd's Introductory remarks
he said, "like the wedding feast at Cana,
the best of the wine has been saved
until the last" to which all agreed at
the close of the lecture. Col. Balm is q
master Of pathos, ,humor and word pictur-
ing. His flights Of eloquence were fasci-
mating and the beautiful thoughts ex-
pressed tended to elevate his hearers on
to higher plane Of existence. The
only complaint made Of the lecture was
it's shortness, one hour and ten minutes.
An hour longer under such q lecture
would have vanished only too quickly.
His subject was, "The Traits Of Human
Character Among the Masses"

Want a New Postofice.

Congressman Robbins has recon-
mended the establishment OF "a postoffice
at West Falls Creek, Jefferson county,
with David G. Smith as postmaster.
While there is no doubt that Mr.. Smith
would be willing to accommodate Uncle
Sam by taking care OF postofflce,
yet is hardly probable that he will be
called upon to perform such a duty.
The Falls Creek postoffice, however,
ought to be moved nearer the center of
that village. The citizens have right
to have better postoffice accommoda-
tiOns.
