that had witnessed the sinking Of the
boat retreated to barracks, leaving
the Fulton and her crew to their
twelve-hour vigil at the bottom Of the
bay.
The rain fell constantly all night,
and at dawn showed no sign of abat.

At nine o'clock the crowd begar

There was furious squirting OF

BE Kind in the Home.

The habit Of treating those who are
nearest and dearest to us with dis.
courtesy, is one that clouds the sun
shine OF too many homes. II you are
young and looking for your prince,
just test his home conduct. Do not
be guided In your choice by what a
young man is in the parlor; find out
what he is in bis mothers sitting
room. Do not Judge him by the way
he can tip his hat, but by the way he
treats the old, especially his parents.
The home where mutual consideration
rules is always a happy one, If it be
the top flat OF cheap tenement or an
abode hut on the prairies. There
should be certain respect observed
in the most intimate relationships.
Wives have no MITE right 10 search
their husbands pockets than they
have to take the same libetry with
an acquaintance. We have no more
right TO rob the baby's bank than to
force the vault OF the national bank.
We may hurt the feelings Of a society
acquaintance ard there is no great
harm done, beyond an cstrangt
of two people who care but little for
each other: but when we stab the fond
mothers heart, that loved US with a
love next In tenderness to heavens, or
wound the sensitive feelings Of a
brother or sister, life is not long
enough to extract the sting from
memory. Loves opportunity will
sOon vanish forever and out through
the sunset Of life, the ones we love
dearest and best haze flown away like
birds to a summer land and our words
of endearment are thrust back like
voices that beat against a wall of rock

Young Men Wanted!

Every young man In this town and
county is wanted! Wanted from the
street corners, from the loafer's rem
devious, from the .idler's promenade;
turnSyour steps into the highway OF
noble aim and earnest work. There
are prizes enough for every successful
worker, crowns enough for every
honorable head that goes through the
smoke Of conflict to victory. There
is within the young man an upSpring-
ing Of lofty sentiment which contri-
buteS to his elevation, and though
there are obstacles to be surmounted
and difficulties to be vanquished, yet
with truth for his watchword, and
leaning on his own noble purposes and
eXcrtions, he may crown his brow with
honorS. He may never wear the war
rier'S crimson wreath, the poets chap
let OF bays, or the StateSmanS laurels
though no grand universal truth may
at his bidding be confessed to the
world, Though it may never be his to
bring to a successful issue a great
political resolution-to be the founder
Of republic whose name shall be "a
distinguished star In the constellation
OF nations, yea, more, though his
name may never be heard beyond the
limits Of his own neighborhood, yet is
his mission none the less high and
holy one. But why do so few young
men Of early promise, whose wise
hopes, purposes, and resolTes were
radiant as the colors Of the rainbow,
fail to distinguish themselves? The
answer is obvious They are not will
ing to devote themselves to the toll
some culture which is the price of
success. Whatever aptitude for par
ticular pursuits nature may donate tc
her favoritc children, she conducts
none but the laborious and the studi-
Gus to distinction.

Didn't Bring II Home.

J. II. Griffin has returned from
his tripto Jalisco, Mexico. When
asked what he thought of the
country, Mr.. Griffin replied, II
didn' bring any Of it home with
me. Ii was quite evident that
he was far from enthusiastic over
the country. In fact, he was not
at all favorably impressed with it.
He states that there is much good
land in that part Of Mexico, but
it will cost $z5 per acer to clean of
the brush. He thinks there is an
opportunity there to make money
in the cattle business. However,
much capital will be required in
any sort of undertaking. Mr..
Griffin says he may go back some
time but for the present he is con
tent to remain in Chickasha.
