A good story is going the rounds con-
corning our esteemed superintendent OF
the county poor-house, Mr.. Geo. Gould.
Taking his wife he made q trip to Mo-
bile, combining business with pleasure.
Now, his wife kept her usual watchful
care I'VE her much beloved spouse and
started On the return trip with n satisfied
heart, that he had gone into that wick
ed little city and was returning again
pure and indebted from the terrible
temptations that assailed him. About
half way home, Mr.. Gould made a dis
covery. She had kept a watchful eye on
him, but how had it been with her?
Turning in her seat she reached back
and clutching her George by the hand,
half whispered: "Look, a flock of wild
turkeys, get your gunw Not waiting
for further remarks he leveled his gun
in the direction indicated and blazed
away. Two victims fell under the fire
Of his deadly weapon, but the rest of the
flock did not fly. This caused some sur
prise, and elm bing down to gather his
spoils his face came in unpleasant con
tact with a wire fence. More surprise
Then being an honest man he followed
up the clew and when he returned to his
wagon he brought two turkeys, but his
pocket was lighter by two shining sill
yer dollars, which he left In payment
Query: Were it Mr.. or Mrs. G. who need
ed watching?

sentative of Messrs. Kohn, We'll II Co.

nous Falcon brand hats, was in tow

The signs point to q large number Of
visitors from the North and Fast this
winter, and what better investment
could be made here than in the erecting
of a first-class hotel situated either in
Scranton or at Pascagoula. We have a
few elegant sites for a hotel, and it is
the lack of a tirst-class hostelry that
sends so many guests, who would much
rather stop in our midst to the pretty
hotels situated in our smaller, but more
enterprising towns.

The English are justly meeting with
disaster in their war on the Dutch
Republic in the south of Africa. A
more unprovoked and unjust war was
ever began. The rapacity of that
government to rob and pluEder weak
er nations in possession of what it
desires was the sole cause of the war
though concealed in many plausible
reasons. Venzuela was not thought
worth its while until the discovery of
vast quantities of gold. That govern
ment then claimed large section of
that country. The prompt interven-
tion of this government. the one
commendable act of Grover Cleveland,
saved that state from dismemberment
to crafty the Unsuitable greed of the
English government. The Beers es-
tablished colony at the extreme
south of Africa at Cape Colony. When
this Industrious and economical people
had built up Institutions that the
English coveted they took possession,
the Beers vacating their homes and
going in the wilderness farther to the
north. There they had surrounded
themselves with comfortable homes,
built cities, established churches and
public schools, and came in possession
of the general thrift that follows the
industry of the Germans as people.
The discovery of vast quantities of
gold was the reason sought to take
possession of their country and Joe
Chamberlain found plausible excuse
for the war aruponthatp people. Another
reason, probably, is the natural antag-
onism of monarchical government
to the establishment of a republic on
the eastern continent. The English
people as a rule are all right but their
government has existed as one of
rapine and robbery upon all weaker
nations throughout its entire exist
ence. The monarchies of Europe can
hardly be expected to intervene in
behalf of a Republic. But what about
Mckinley and the American Republic?
Oh he, kinglike. is making war in
behalf of empire as are the English.

the home of j. B. Mitchell one of

In Iowa marriage makes girl of age,
even though she is not 1S. The board
of control recently discovered that it
has in the institution at Mitchellville
certain girls who had been married be-
fore commitment, though when COM
mitted they were within the ages be-
tween which girls can be committed,
it being evident that the court was not
aware of the marriage. The board
asked the attorney general if it had au-
thority to detain these women. The at
torney general in an opinion filed, says
that the board must detain them, for it
cannot reverse the court which COM
mitted them to the institution.
