ing the dense fog and mist this
morning, which has been prevalent
along the Spanish coast for the
last two days. the steamer Buda
clashed with the Ariaine while
going at about one'half speed, and
ten minutes afterward the Buda,
which was cut almost in two, went
to the bottom, only nineteen of
her crew being saved by British
steamer which happened to be
near. The Ariaine had about 200
passengers aboard and was kept
afoat, although panic ensued.

From BelIeyieW.

Farmers out here have been pretty
busy the past week cutting hay, stack
ing wheat, etc.
While we are needing rain very
much, corr looks fairly well, and with
a few more good rains the yield of
corr in this valley will be the largest
in years.
Millet hay was never better nor
earlier. In many localities it has
already been harvested-two weeks
earlier than usual.
Health in this valley was never bet
ter than now; while | am told that
there is considerable sickness in many
other localities.
The following persons visited us IN
the afternoon of the second Suuday:
Misses Pearl Edmonds, Reota, Ethel
and Emma Hawkins, Maud Sloan,
Letha Meyer and Mr. and Mrs Meyer,
The writer attended the barbecue
and picnic at Sawyer's on the 4th inst :,
and as usual on such occasions, kept
both eyes and ears open to the move
ments in general connected with the
whole affair. Not in years have I ex-
perienced such an excellent time on
such an occasion. The fact is that
everybody really appeared to he hav-
ing a good time. No discord occurred
to disturb the peace during the whole
day. At noon the Messrs Sawyer an
~nounced that loaf bread and beef
would be given to all; and nearly
every person, if not all, received an
ample supply, which they took to
their respective "tables," and with the
various other good things they had
brought with them, a dinner was set
good enough for a king. In the after
noon the various kinds Of amusement
were resumed, and all "went merry as
a marriage bell' until night came and
put an end to the merriment.
On the second Saturday in this

My Flower.

A flower that grew in my garden plot,
watched from day to day;
From the time the tiny bud came forth
Till blossomed the flower gay.
Its sweet smelling beauty was most profound,
Twas admired far and wide;
l plucked the flower, and all too soon
1t withered, then it died.
In the short life of this gentle flower,
So modest and so pure,
1t seemed to shrink from the sinful world
And earth's v~anities endure.
The mission this simple flower performed,
Though humble I'll be bound,
Was just as proper in its place
As feats of arms renowned.
Though not in the foremost ranks you may
stand,
Though you do not shine with the bright
est,
You have a mission like the flower,
So do it with hearts of the lightest.

and on Thursday, accompanied by his
sister, Leota, made a trip to the
vicinity of Goodland, where / under
stand Miss Leota will teach school the
coming year. We wish her much sue
cess with her school.
Nearly all Of the schools in this part
of the country have employed teachers.
The following named teachers will
teach at the places named below: Mr..
Robson, at Thorn Grove: j. G. Hart
man. Cayton's Creek; Thos. Warren,
Imboden; B. Burnham and Jettie
Sloan, Belleview; Jno. Edmonds, Sa-
bula; Chas. Fitzpatrick, L~esterville;
Oertie Fitzpatrick, Red Point; Letha
Meyer. Elm Grove; Levie Edmonds,
''Henpeck;" Ava Sloan, Pepper
Street," Jno. T. Patterson, Sawyer's
Mill; Phil. Hartman, Des Arc; o. j.
Buford, lear Sabula. The school at
Cedar Grove has not yet employed a
teacher, so | am informed.
1t has been said that the teacher is
an exponent to the intellectual and
moral status of this great Republic,
and if that be true, let every teacher
try to magnify his Tor herr position.
Rev. j. H. Calvert, pastor of the
Second Baptist church at Belleview,
now has the care OF a church in South
ern Illinois, at which place he breaches
once a month. Bro. Calvert came
from Illinois a few years ago, and now
that he has been called to take charge
of the same church which he had
charge of when he lived there, surely
speaks well for him. While Bro. c. is
not a pulpit orator, he is a logical
talker, and nearly always does his sub
ject justice. Very often we mistake
oratory and rhetoric for religion; and
while oratory and rhetoric will carry
one through this world pretty well, it
will take something more to take him
to that land to which most men hope
to enter. p.
