PETTY JEALOUSY.

Most folks have been inclined to in

between the people of the north and
the south because of the Civil war
had been well nigh obliterated-that
they were now little more than I'M
pleasant memories which the men and
women in these sections of the coun-
try were even loathe to call to mind.
That this is not so, unfortunately, is
evidenced by the following paragraph
which appeared in a recent issue of
the Texas Farmer:

If there's really tickle thing on the
face of the earth 1t is a river. Not so
long ago the Ohio was cutting up all
sorts of disastrous capers and now the
water in it is so low that 80 per cent
of the coal mines along the Monon-
gahela river, one of the tributaries of
the Ohio, are idle and thousands of
miners are out of work therefore.
Most of this coal is shipped by water
and the river is so low that the barges
can not be handled
