A Forbidden Topic.

"There Is one topic peremptorily for
bidden to all well bred, to all rational,
mortals," says Emerson, namely,
their distempers. If you have not slept
or if you have slept or If you have
headache or sciatica or leprosy or thun-
derstroke, I beseech you by all angels
to hold your peace and not pollute the
morning, to which all the housemates
bring serene and pleasant thoughts, by
corruption and groans. Come out OF
the azure. Love the day."
The quotation suggests that, hard as
it is to be an invalid, it may prove al
most as painful to be an inValids

NeWberry Court Adjourned.

NEwBERRY, Nov. 10.-This morning
when the Jurors for the court of common
pleas assembled at the court house they
found that the clerk of court had been
ordered by a telegram received on Sunday
to adjodrn the court sine die. 1t seems
that Judge Buchanan who was presiding
does not now reside in the circuit for
which he was elected and this is required
by the constitution. He knowing this,
and after consulting with the lawyers
here, thought best to adjourn the court rs
questions might arise in the future which
would make the business transacted null
and void.

Look Out For Your Pate.

A contemporary says pate is slang
for head. It is, eh? Wherefore7 Sure
" the word Is used in a trivial or de-
rogatory sense. as noddle, noggin, era
mum, brainpan, etc., but its origin Is
eminently respectable. Shakespeare
says 1.-The learned pate ducks to the
golden fool" Pope's epigram is good:
You beat your pate and fancy wit Will
come;
Knock as you please, there's nobody at
home.
We have "bald pate" and "shave
pate" Why, the word is used once IN
the Bible, and by David, In Psalm vii,
16, His mischief shall return upon his
own head. and his violent dealing shall
come down upon his own pate" Ac-
curately, pate does not mean the head,
but the crown Of the head.-New York

CLEVELAND, Nov. "a special to The
Plain Dealer from Pomeroy, o., says:
Harry Allemang, a ball player, who
pitched in the Southern League this
season and who has signed with Cincin.
natl for the coming year, was shot and
mortally wounded at Mason, W. Va, his
home, early this morning. Allcmang had
been out with friends and was returning
home at 3 o'clock. He found burglars at
work in the postoffice. A sentry on the
outside ordered Allemang to halt. No
attention was paid to the command and
the sentry fired on Allemang, the bullet
entering his back and lodging in the left
lung. Physicians state that the wound is
fatal. When Allemang had fallen to the
ground the robbers took 1880 from him.

Harmless Pleasure.

At the railway stations in Russia books
are kept in which passengers may enter
any complaint they wish to make. That
is good idea. 1t should be adopted by
the railroads and the coal trusts in this
country. Of course, it is not to be sup
posed that the complaints would do any
good, but people like to complain, and we
don't see why we shouldn't have this
privilege in the land of the free and the
home Of the brave when they have it in
despOtic Russia.

A THANKSGIVING Dinner.

Heavy eating is usually the first cause
of indigestion. Repeated attacks inflame
the mucous membranes lining the stom-
ach, exposes the nerves of the stomach,
producing swelling after eating, heart
burn, headache, sour risings and finally
catarrh of the stomach. Kodol relieves
the inflammation, protects the nerves and
cures the catarrh. Kodol cures indiges-
ton, dyspepsia, all stomach troubles by
cleansing and sweetening the glands of
the stomach Bamberg Pharmacy.

BARNwELL, Nov. 10.-In the case of
State VS.. Kirkland, for murder. the jury
was unable to agree, having been in the
room for 50 hours, so Judge Gage ordered
a mistrial last night.
Yesterday morning the jury was per-
mitted to attend church in a body under
a sworn bailiff The jury is said to have
stood ten for accquittal and two for con-
viction. The jury was most representa-
tive one, several of them being men Of
the highest character and having the con-
fidence and respect of every one in this
community.
Civil business was commenced this
morning and the first case taken up for
trial was that of Jennie Brown VS.. Caro-
lima Midland railway. The plaintiff wants
$4,000 for the burning of her canning

Court in BarnWell.

BARNwELL, Nov. Sat the opening of
our court of general sessions Monday last
eighteen prisoners were in Jail awaiting
trial After this weeks work of Solicitor
Davis, who, like a travelling salesman,
has been offering justice to the various
iuries, of which they have purchased
freely, laying in both winter and summer
stocks, resulting in quite a delegation to
our penal institutions-thej Jail, changing
and penitentiary.
The case wherein most interest was
manifested was that of the State VS.. Geo.
D. Kirkland, for murder Practically
three days were consumed in the hearing
and, at this writing, the jury is still out,
not having agreed upon verdict. This
case is the deplorable Robbins tragedy"
of one year ago, where three Dunbars
and one Bennett were killed, besides the
wounding of Mrs. Dunbar. The solicitor
was assisted in the prosecution by R. c.
Holman and Col Robt. Aldrich, while d.
S. Henderson, leading counsel for the de-
fense, was assisted by r. A. Ellis and W.
II. Townsend. The speeches were strong
and measured up to the expectations of
friends on both sides.
