A Corn Crop.

This isn't much of a corn country
but Pat Shanahan has just sold 5000
bushels at White Oak switch for Is
cents bushel, and has 1000 bushels
left. The last of his crop was gath
cred by the renter the first of March,
and instead of getting 5000 bushels
out of the $50 acres they did not get
over fourth of that quantity, as it
had rotted on the ground during the
winter. Mr.. Shanahan has seldom
sold corn In past years, never in such
large quantities, but he lost 100 head
Of hogs and had none left to feed it to
and did not care to buy. This is the
first time the gentleman has ever had
the cholera among his hogs, and he
has raised a great many in years past,
and good ones.

MoULTING OF A TARANTULA.
An Interesting Sight to NaturaiiBts
How the Large Spider Per-
forms the Operation.

An event OF more than ordinary in
terest occurred in my Office the other
day. A large female tarantula shed
its skin for the second time since it has
been in captivity. Those familiar with
insects, spiders and related creatures
are aware that they are encased by a
hard, unyieldingintegument, Increase
of size is permissible only when the old
skin is shed and one that has been
newly formed beneath expands to the
requisite degree. This is process
constantly occurring in nature, and
ever excites interest in the beholder.
| When large spider three inches long
throws off the old integument, it is
thrilling sight.
In the present case the tarantula
had evidently been feeling Ill for some
days, condition frequently preceding
this process among insects, and the
other day she was found lying on her
back and apparently dead, but moved
little upon being disturbed. She lay
thus until quarter past twelve, when
the rustling her movements made ex-
cited attention. The old skin had then
ruptured around the thorax in such
manner that the top could be removed
entire, and through this opening the
giant spider was literally working out
of her old skim, This was accomplished
by the aid of eight legs and the two
leglike palpi. At the end of an hour
the change had been effected. The
spider lay upon her back beside the
perfect skin, resting from the severe
exertion.
This tarantula was unusually large
before she moulted, and is now of still
greater size. She came north in a
bunch of bananas about two and
half years ago, and until last January
was the pet of DR.. J. NJ. Bigelow. While
under his care one skin was shed and is
now in my possession. An idea of the
increase in size attendant upon moult-
ing may be gained by comparing the
dimensions of the dorsal piece Of the
skin shed about the latter part of 1896,
when under the care OF DR.. Bigelow,
and the one just shed. The first meas
ures one inch and the second measures
one and one-fourth inches. Therefore
the present dorsal piece will probably
be proportionately larger when fully
expanded.-E. P. Felt, In Country Cen
tleman.

BUSINESS, HOT POLITICS.
The proposition to force national

The proposition to force national
politics into the municipal govern
.ment of Vinita falls with a dull
thud upon the average citizen. II
has not been explained how the
principles of partisan politics can
be properly applied to the control
of the city administration, and to
the conduct of its schools and 9TH
er public institutions. 1t is small
and narrow contracted ideas that
impel men to follow the dictates of
party bosses where national issues
cannot be applied. The man or
the party that undertakes in Vini-
ia to say that none but those of
some particular political faith shall
govern the schools and fill places
of public trust along other lines
will not receive the serious atten-
ton of intelligent people. 1t
would be just as reasonable tor one
to insist that his grocer, his mer-
chant, his lawyer or his physician
must be of a particular political
faith, as to contend that the mayor,
the alderman or the school direc-
tors of little town must have
their names blown in the bottle OF
some political party. The man
who allows himself to be a slave
to any political party whose lead
ership he feels that he must blind
ly follow through good and evil is
an unsafe adviser.
Then again, it is not in the
province of any man or party to
say that the vote at previous
election shall be the criterion of
faith and party loyalty thereafter,
at once declaring the infallibility
of party and the subserviency of
the individual.
The strength of the American
government is not due to its strong
and we'll organized political parties,
but it exists and grows rather in
spite of them, and it is to the
presence of the great independent
mass which has not adhered to
either, but which has at times re-
mained inertly neutral, and then
again thrown its strength from one
extreme to the other. Dismayed
at the excesses of one political
party it has caused landslide to
the other, but whenever the inde-
pendent note has leaned with its
whole weight in either direction,
that weight has for the time been
irresistible. 1t is like the tides of
the ocean, its very unstableness
puri6es and prevents stag nation.

A Buccaneer Carousal.

The buccaneers lurched up the wind
ing pathways, stamped through the
grim gateway with its decoration of
shriveled heads, and clattered into the
long low hall of the castle, where was
set ready for them feast made up
of coarse profusion. On the black
ened wood of the table were hogs
roasted whole, and great smoking
joints of fresh meat, and joints of buc-
caned meat, and roasted birds, with
pimento and other sauces, and before
each cover was great blackjack of
liquor set in little pool of sloppings.
To a European eye the feast was
rother disgusting than generous; but
to the buccaneers, new from the lean
fare of shipboard, it was princely;
and they pledged the governor with
choking draughts every time they
hacked themselves fresh platterful.
Each buccaneer had brought with him
his bucket of pieces-of-eight, which
he nursed between his knees as he sat,
with loaded pistol on top as make
weight and menace to pilferers; and
after that all had glutted themselves
with meat they swept the joints and
piatters to the floor, not waiting for
the slaves to remove them, and called
for more drink and the dice boxes,
both of which were promptly set be-
fore them.-Pall Mall Magazine.

The features of the House proceedings
was a speech made during the debate
on the Army Reorganization bill, by Mr..
Grosvenor. of Ohio. He declared that
the present situation in the Philippines
was due to the open opposition in this
country of the ratification of the Peace
Treaty. He announced that the future
of the islands was a matter for Con-
gress to decide, and that for the Pres-
dent to announce policy would be for
him to usurp the authority of Congress.
Mr.. Platts maiden speech in the Sem
ate was delivered Friday, and attracted
the undivided attention of his colleagues.
A resolution was offered declaring that
the ratification of the Peace Treaty
should not commit the Government to a
colona! policy The Pension Appropra-
ton bill was passed. In the House the
day was devoted to further discussion of
the Army Reorganization bill. The first

of falling from n ladder upon which he
was standing while taking meas liements

upon which the defendant filed u motion
to set aside the verdict which was denied
and the case comes up to the supreme
Court on defendants exceptions. Tie de-
PENDANT claims that the plaintiff, at the
time of the accident, was acting as the
defendant servant and that the injury,
If occasioned by it's servant resulted from
the neglect of a fellow servant of the
plaintiff. And also because the case show
ed that the accident occurred through the
negligence of the plaintin himself, and
that upon the evidence it was not caused
