where he has been living for many
years. Mr.. Wallace left York county in
December, 1872. and this is the first
time he has been back to his old home
since. He Is here to see his brother
and other relatives. Mr.. Wallace went
down to see Mr.. John Plaxco's wheat
Monday afternoon. and pronounced it
the best he has seen this year. There
has been q wonderful improvement in
the agricultural conditions of this Sec
ton since 1 left" says Mr.. Wallace.
"but the people in this country work
much harder than they do in mine"

THE big wheat crop that Mr.. John
PlaXco has made on the outskirts OF
Yorkville, gives a satisfactory demon
stration of the correctness of the ad-
vice by Mr.. D. T. Leslie, some few
years ago, that one-half bushel of seed
to the acre is enough. Mr.. Plaxco SOW
ed 2s pecks to the acre, and nobody In
this section claims to have ever seen a
finer crop anywhere.

Shredded Corn Stalks.
Shredded corn stalks have been sold
on this market this season at prices
ranging from $3.50 to SIS ton, owing
to the demand. People who have used
this kind of stock feed say it Is sue
cess.
Deering Harvesting Machinery.
The Deering Harvester company has
the right of way today, so far as adver-
tising space Is concerned. Mr.. M. G..
Willis, the local agent for the Deering
people, makes it quite plain that there
are some people who will also testify as
TO the merits of the machinery he Is
selling. The controversy has grown
rather warm; but people who are inter-
ested in agricultural machinery, will
find not little information in all Of the
testimonials that are being printed.
Communion at Beersheba.
The regular spring communion SER
vices at Beersheba last Sunday, was
attended by one of the largest congre-
cations ever seen at this historic old
church. The people gathered from all
directions, and the church building was
not nearly capable of accommodating
the big crowd. Rev. w. A. Hafner did
the preaching, and his sermon was a
good one. Rev. S. H. Hay, the pastor,
was heard to say after the service that
the outside congregation was unusual
ly well-behaved.

ner quite interesting to the large au-
dience that gathered for the occasion,
and quite creditable to the children
and their instructors. Mr.. P. M.
Grimes, superintendent of the Sunday
school presided, and the exercises were
opened with prayer by Mr.. ]. c. Conner.
There were a number Of recitations by
different children, responsive readings
and singings. following closely the pro-
gramme used on the occasion in the
Southern Methodist Sunday-schools.
During the exercises a collection
amounting to $1O.SO was taken up. Su-
perintendent Grimes made a short but
appropriate address, urging the impor-
tance of Sunday-school work, and es-
pecially the Importance Of proper at
tention and attendance by the parents
Of the children. The best Of good be-
havior prevailed throughout the exer-
cises, and everybody present enjoyed
the occasion

PROMINENT Republicans like Chaun-
cey M. Depew and Chas. H. GrosVe-
nor, of Ohio, are sounding the country
on the idea of a third term for McKin-
ley. Mckinley has been and. is good
president; but we hardly think that
the country is willing for third term.
If the Republicans renominate him, it
will be a good opportunity for a good.
conservative Democrat; but the party
will do we'll not to make the mistake Of
believing that just any kind of a DEM
crat can be elected.

If some statistician could give us an
approximate estimate Of the value of the

AS a result of a lecture given by
DR.. Letuile, a physician at the Bouci-
cault hospital, Paris. in which he ex-
pounded the social dangers of an in
crease of tuberculosis among the
working classes, a committee has
been formed for the construction Of
a sanitarium in the neighborhood Of
Paris where poor people affected by
the disease will receive treatment
free.
1t is a well-known fact that 10000
adults die yearly from tuberculosis
in Paris for want Of proper care.
When erected this sanitarium will
be maintained by charitable contribu-
tions.
Last weeks mortality report em-
phasizes the need of this institution,
as diseases of the respiratory organs
were again on the increase. The
total mortality was 1,lsl which is
above the average for this season OF
the year, the latter being 1,072.
In all diseases excepting those af-
fecting the lungs and respiratory or
gans the mortality was unusually
low Inflammation Of the lungs and
kindred ailments were responsible
for 300 deaths, as compared with 269
during the previous week and an
average Of PIG. OF this number 70
were due TO bronchitis and so to
pneumonia. other diseases of the
respiratory organs caused 14s deaths,
instead of the AVERAGE of 1O7. In
cluded were 25 d-=ths from grip.

A teacher in a Ninety-Ihird street
school relates this series of misunder-
standings as an illustration of the me-
cessity of distinctness of speech when
addressing little children:
Recently She had occasion to speak
10 her class about Nero, says the Chi
cago Inter Ocean. She gave a synop-
sis Of the emperor's interesting career,
and asked the boys if they had ever
heard Of him before. All disclaimed
previous knowledge OF this sanguinary
character except one youngster in the
rear Of the room, who raised his hand
and said. timidly: "lfyou please, Miss
L., I've heard of him.
The teacher was glad to know that
at least one of her brood had received
preliminary home training on hiss
torical subjects, and she smiled be-
nignly. "lndeed," she said; "and who
told you about him2'
1--WE sing about him in our church, /"
said the small boy.
The teacher was puzzled then.
''Why, what do you sing about Nero in
church?" she asked
1--WE sing Nero, My God to Thee, /"
said the small boy, blithely.
Another day the class as q whole
was taught for the Benefit Of those not
receiving proper home training that
when they found it necessary 10 walk
before other persons or discommode
them in any way, it was polite to say:
IL beg your pardon" The teacher no.
ticed at the time that the face Of one
Of her listeners wore a puzzled express
sion, but being pressed for time, she
did not inquire into the cause of his
perplexity, but proceeded with her les
son IN manners, leaving the pupil to de-
velop his own ideas.
A few days later result Of this de-
velopment was made ludicrously app
parent On Friday afternoon several
ladies called There were special ex-
ercises for their entertainment, and
in going from one side Of the room to
the other The boy with vague percep-
tions was obliged to pass directly be-
fore the visitors, TO whom he bowed
jerkily one by one, and said "Bak-
ing powder Finally one of the ladies
sitting near the teacher asked in a
whisper: "What on earth is that child
saying2"
The teacher, who had been cruelty
mystified by the ineNplicable remark
called the boy over for an explanation
willie, what was you saying mo-
ment ago?' she said.
Willie blushed uncomforta5ly
Nothing but baking powder, he
said you told us we must always say
that when passing before anybody"

The Cocopa Indians of the lower
Colorado Din both Baja California and
sonora) are Of intczest partly because
they have practically escaped atten-.
tion on the part Of scientific inyesti-
gators until within few months, and
partly because Of the customs which
distinguish them from most neighbor-
ing tribes. They are essentially an
agricultural folk, though their agricul-
ture is Of the most primitive sort, af-
f0rding. indeed, a better picture Of
prehistoric agricultural methods than
those of any other known tribe says
tie Sew York Tribune Their customs
wel illustrate. too. the dependence Of
primitive industries, modes Of life,
and even habits Of thought. on sur
roundings; for. ike the fellaheen Of
the lower Nile, they are creatures Of
the river along which they live, driven
from the bottom lands BY the annual
freshets. and brought back by ensuing
drouehts to plant anew in the soil fer
tilted by the annual silt deposit.
Perhaps Of primary interest among
their customs Is their disposal of the
dead. They not only distribute the
property Of the deceased among non-
relatives. but burn the body and the
habitation together. A considerable
part Of the tribal lore Is connected
with the mortuary custom; and Gus
tom and lore together afford remarlc
able insight into the esoteric life Of
