Beaumont and Fletcher.
BY MATTE sANBoRN rINNIN


Very little is known, believe, OF
these authors. although they were
considered among the most popular
of their time, having held the stage
well into the 18th century. They
were 80 closely associated in their
lives and labors, their names have
become indissolubly united.
Francis Beaumont, the third son
of Sir Francis Beaumont, one of the
chief Justices of the common pleas,
was born at Gracedieu-in leicester
shire, in 1886, ten years after Fletcher,
and died in 1915, ten years before
him. He was educated at Broadgate
Hill (now Pembroke HalD and in
1000 was admitted n member OF the
inner temple. Two years later, he
published certain translations from
Ovid. He became friend of Ben
onson at nineteen and wrote verses
in praise OF his dramas.
At the theatre, which attracted
most of the intellect and wit OF the
time, he met Fletcher. They were
very much drawn toward each other
from the first, their habits and tastes
being similar, they shared the same
rooms, had everything in CON-
mon, even their clothes, until the
marriage OF Beaumont which took
place two years before his death.
Their friendship was considered a
most rare and beautiful thing, as
there was generally considerable
jealousy between authors OF that
time.
1t is thought that Charles Lamb
lad them in mind when he speaks OF
the "nobie practice" when eminent
authors shared each others labors
and fame.
No niche in the temple Of literary
fame has been large enough to con-

arrived about $50 from Delta
bringing over two hundred guests,
all of whom were delighted with
the trip, which for once was made
on schedule time

NIT so exte ended report as we
should like to give OF the affair,
but among the proceedings the
address by Frank Goudy, p. g.,
was attentively listened to by all.
The impressive ceremonies being
finished, over FIVE hundred guests
sat down to banquet that all
describe as complete in every
detail. The Rebekahs are entitled
to the credit for serving ban
quet at which all were more than
satisfied. During the proceedings
the Paonia band discoursed music.
Dancing followed the banquet
and until near morning the large
floor was well filed with dancers.
The train pulled out before
daylight carrying a tired but
happy and satisfied crowd. Paonia
has as usual did things up in good
shape and given fresh evidence of
her ability to handle large crowds
in a creditable manner.

plays, a masque and several poems.
But it is difficult to locate the au-
thorship of these.
Fletcher being the longer lived and
more prolific writer, of course con-
tributed the larger share. He wrote
in conjunction with several Others
after the death of his friend, Rowley,
Massinger and Shirley, and some
critics think the hand Of Shakespeare
can be detected in at least one play.
From all that can be gathered
Beaumont possessed the deeper and
more thoughtful genius, Fletcher the
gay and fantastic.
They have no power of serious
Characterization and their numerous
creations are seldom consistent, but
they say in pleasing way the most
clever, glancing things.
Morally little can be said in their
praise. No audience OF the present
day could sit out the presentation OF
their purest play.

Miss Amy Moller had a runa-
way Thursday evening. While
coming down the hill to town she
noticed train switching in the
yards and stopped her horse and
attempted to hold him by the
head while the train pulled by,
but he broke away from her and
strung the buggy pretty impair
tally over south Paonia. The
conductor of the train appreciat-
ing the fact that the train had
caused the accident took Miss
Moller's name to send in a report.
The young lady imagining that
in some some way she was being
made a party to damage suit
timorously inquired if the horse
had hurt his train any. The con
ductor is yet debating in his own
mind whether she was making
game of him or not.

FEED BUNK FOR MUDDY LOTS.

die lengthwise, dividing it into two
troughs of the length required. If this
partition of boards or Stats is high
enough the sheep cannot well get into
and stand in the troughs and foul the
feed.
AS sheep dislike mud very much and
hate to get wet feet, provision ought
by all means to be made for feeding
them in the dry. A well made shed
facing south is the best way to secure
this protection, but if for any reason
the shed cannot be provided for feed
ing them it is very desirable that the
ground around the feed racks and
troughs should be dry. Where gravel
is abundant raising the ground around
the racks and putting on four to six
inches of gravel will keep the immedi-
ate surroundings firm and free from
mud
If gravel is not obtainable and there
is no other way to provide for solid
standing room around the feed racks
and troughs the best thing is to build
board platform on good substantial sills
of some wood that does not rot easily.
This idea is shown in the accompany
ing illustration, which shows low, fiat
racks. The racks might be better if
made V shaped, with up and down
Slated sides, wide enough apart to per-
init the sleeps noses to pass through
readily. I have used them made in
that way as we'll as like the Illustration
and found that it saved much of the
hay, turnips and other things that fed
them.

Diooinu For Fish.

The natives of Kottiar, in Africa,
are in the habit of digging every
year, in the summer, the dry banks
Of the Vergel river for fish, which
they dig out by hundreds, just as
they would potatoes. The mud
Jumps are broken open, and the fish,
perhaps eight or ten inches long,
will always be found alive and often
frisky, as if just removed from its
supposedly native element, the wa
ter. In the dry beds Of several At
rican rivers a similar practice is Of
ten pursued. A kind of mud fish
buries itself while the bottom is
still moist and remains there all
the summer, waking up when tho
rains commence again.
