Mrs. ugh Bell, wife of a brother of
the defendants, said tliat Uriah and
Sherrill had a room at her house which
they occupied occasionally, that on
Taursday night week before the mur-
der (the night Credle said they met at
Brantley’s) Uriah came chere, dressed,
put on his slippers and left about 7:30
o'clock fora dance. After the dance he
came back and stayed all night. On
cross examination she said it was as
near to go by Brantley’s to the dance
hall as any other way. Witness also
said in her direct testimony that on the
night of the murder she beard a tap on
the window and her husbant got up,
put on his clothes, went out and came
back late, he said he had been at work
at the stables.

Several other witnesses testified that
Uriah was at the dance on Thursday
night from 8 to about lo’clock. LL. T.
Thompson testified to the same facts
us to his being at the dance, but stated
that Uriah changed slippers in his store.
This contradicted the statement of Mrs.
Bell that he put on the slippers at her
house. Thompso: also stated that

onthe night of the murder. He said

s Ignorance Not all in the Rural

Districts.

‘The following from the New

‘ork Herald of recent date

roves conclusively that all the

morance in this country does

}find Jodgment in the rural

tricts. Louis Gordon, a shirt

anufacturer, was a witness in a

t for arsou, and one of the at-

torneys, Mr. Davis, asked him if

his business had suffered from

the passage of the last tariff law.

Gordon replied that he had

ver heard of the tariff law and

idn’t know what the word meant.

“Do You read the newspapers?”

asked Mr. Davis.

No, sir.”

“Do you know what city is the
apital of this country?”

“No, sir,”

_ “Do you know what is the cap-

l city of this State?”

“No, sir,”

“Do you know what Congress

?

_ *No, sir.”

“Do you know who was the last’
mayor of this city ?”

“No, sir.”

“Are you a citizen?’ finally
asked Mr. Davis.

—*Yes,” answered the witness,
and Judge Fitzgerald, the jurors
nd spectators looked at him in
imazement.
Gordon previously testified that |°

And the Band Played Dine.

The morning after the battle of
Sailor's Creek the Confedefite
prisoners were ordered to fall in
line. Soon Gen. Custer and staff
appeared on the scene, and this
was the signal for an uproarious
applause, The sky was fairly
darkened with caps thrown in the
air, and band played “Yankee

| Dvodle,” and altogether it was a

sight to sadden the captive Con-
federates.
Gen. Caster seemed to realize

| this, and with a delicacy of feeling

and magtanimity of spirit which
only true chivalry can appreciate,
ag s00n as the applause had gub-
sided and jthe band ceased, he
said “Give the boys [meaning the
prisoners] Dixie.”

As the sweet strain ofthe Con-
federate war song rolled in waves
of liquid gmeiody through the
air, Gen. Custer took off his hat
and waved it as a signal and the
applause was deafening. The
Union hurrah and the rebel yell,
blended into one and shook notes.
as well as hearts and hands,

across the bloody chasm.
Years afterward, when the cniv-

alrous Custer rode gallantly to
his death in his last charge, it
sent w thrill of pain throughout
the Jength and breadth of our
land, for in his death one of the
most daring and unselfish of men
had perished, nor can it be doubt
ed had he been spared, be would

“GOD BLESS YOU.”
The phrase is trite; the insincere
And heartless glibly use it,
And often hypocrites austere
To aid their projects choose it;
But when ’tis spoken from the heart,
While griefs and cares oppress you,
The eun appears, the clouds depart—
That common phrase,“God bless you!”

Life often is a dreary road,
Where thorns and briers beset you,

And while you stagger neath your load
Small troubles sting and fret you.

It lights the eyes and dries the tear,
When all these ills distress you,

If from a friendly voice you hear
The common phrase, “God bless you!”

And often when the heart would speak
Its impulse sweet and tender,
And other words are all too weak,
Its meaning deep to render,
Or gratitude a medium secks
In which it would address you, :
Then in the phrase a volume speaks—
The common phrase, “God bless you!’
All of Which Proves.

Grim Jokes.

The foolkiller often makes a
bad mess of his work and over-
looks many good chances. Just
imagine the sense of humor pos-
sessed by that young Southerner
who, asa joke, told the wife of
his hunting companion that her
husband had been accidentally
shot and killed. Accepting the
story as true, the frightened,
horror-striken woman screamed
aud fell dead. Thére is no éx-
cuse for any such “joke.” At
Chillicothe, the other day, one
youth bet another that he could
shoot the hat off his head. In-
stead of yelling for the police,the
foolish man accepted the wager.
The first named lost his bet and
the other lost the best part of his
head. ‘The belief that a fool is
born every minute is Strengthened
by such occurrences as these. —

The economic value of birds is un.
told. This fact might be placed be-

prepare two tables—one .showirg
how many wireworms it would
take to destroy amile of turnips,
how- many grubs to ravage the
wheat harvests of a dozen farms,
how many insects, to strip thp leafy
blades of a forest bare. how many
to spoil the fruits of wide orchards,

| the other recording the fact that

these very numbers of insects are
eaten by a few humble birds in the
course of the year. That the result
would be conclusive evidence of the
birds’ value may be safely foretold
by a glance at a few facts which
have already been brought to bear
upoh the question.

In the spring, when there are clam-
orous young birds in the nest, the
house sparrow returns every three
or four minutes, each time bearing
spoils in the shape of insect food.
Calculated at its lowest possible val-
ue—that is, allowing only one insect
to each journey—tbis thankless task
represents tens of thousands of vap-

of birds in one month. Swift fliers
like the swallow that hawk for food
in the air may rank higher. They
slay hundreds of thousands. —Fort-
nightly Review.

 

May Be True of a Boston Woman.

A south end woman who was due
at home at a certain hour, but
couldn't possibly get there because
she became stalled in an electric car
blockade on Tremont street, whited
and waited until patience ceased to
be a virtue or even half way com-
She arose and stalked
from the car with kindling eyes and
swelling heart, said by poets to be
evidences of anger, but paused at
the platform long enough to offor
the conductor a nickel. ‘Why,
madam,” said the conductor, “you
have already paid your fare.”’

The American Father.

In what I have seenof English
home life it has seemed to me that
the English father is on terms of a

that the American father is much
cauyiadl with his business,
tho Amé¥ican daughter bas more of
self reliance in her disposition,
which renders her to acertain ex-
tent more independent and capable | _
of looking after her own interests.
In a certain sense, especially as re-
gards monetary and matrimonial
matters, it might be said that the
English father acts for his daughter,
while the American father allows
her to act for herself. Those who
have made a study of the American
girl can have little doubt that this
independence is good for her in both

does not follow that the same course
of treatment would be good for the
English girl.—Philadelphia Times.

Well Timed Puns,

A well known clergyman in a
southern state is an inveterate pun-
ster. He often says that while he
is well aware that puns belong to
the lowest order of wit he is soldom
able to resist the temptation to
make one when opportunity offers.

On one occasion after preaching
an eloquent sermon he was met by
two friends, one of whom began to
praise his discourse in enthusiastic
terms. When he paused tor breath,
the other man said, with a laugh:

‘‘Well, doctor, can you stand as
much soft soap as that?”

“Indeed I can if there isn’t too
‘much lye in it,” returned the min-
ister quickly.

At another time he was present
at the marriage reception of a young
‘oouple of the name of More. The
occasion was somewhat stiff up to
the time of the minister's entrance,
and he qkickly discovered the state
of affairs.

“Madam,” he said, with bis radi- |

ERR Rae ee RRS ae NN cs ah The bearskin hats of some British

regiments were at first devised with
the.idea of striking terror into the
hearts of their enemies. The same

| principle is shown in the dreadful

figures worn by the knights on their
helmets and sometimes emblazoned
on their shields. The ancient Ge-.
mans wors horned helmets to in-
spire terror in the enemy and cur.
ried figures of strange animals as
standards.

 

Perish the Thought!

A man named Smith killed a man
named Jones at Niagara Falls.
us hope that this is not the begin-
ning of a feud petween the Smith

-, and the Junes families.—Rochester

Union and Ad¥ertiser.

 

Most Wonderful City.

The niost wonderful eity within
the limits of the United States, and
whigh has no existence whatever
durtag the summer months, is Fish
City, Mioh. This municipal oddity
is built on the: ice of Saginaw bay
regularly évery winter and is occu-
pied by men aud their families who
are engaged in catching, cleaging
and packing lake trout and white-
fish for the market. Fish City is
situated in the same cove nearly ev-
ery winter and is built of rough
pine boards. In the winter of 1893-4
it had a popalation of nearly 3, 000,
and in 1994.58 almost twice that
number.—St. Louis Republic,

Proved Case.

The building blocks had been hay-
ing a dispute in the nurgery.

‘I’m worth just as much as you
are,’ oxglaimed the letter H.

‘‘No, youre not,’’ replied the let-
ter G. “If you were worth anything
at all, the English would never drop
you.’’— Washington Star.

The Signs of the Times.

The office boy, with his legs curled
round those of the chair, was tilted
back in the corner gloating over
“The Midnight Murder; or, The
Milkman’s Mystery,’’ whena visitor
entered. The boy had heard his step
through the passage, and was oalm.
ly expecting him when the door
opened,

“Is the guv’nor in?” asked the
visitor. ;

The boy looked at him with an al-
most contemptuous expression, and
was slow to reply.

‘T said,’’ snapped the visitor, ‘‘is
the guv’nor in?”’

*“That’s a pretty question to be
askin me, ain’t it? Don't you kfiow
he ain’t?”

“How should I know?” inquired
the astonished caller.

‘By lookin at me. Do you think
I’d be tucked up here readin this
book if the old man was in? Well, I
should say not—bardly. Come in
again tomerrow.”’ °

And the boy once more plunged
into the amazing adventures of the
mysterious milkman.—Strand Mag-

azine. .

The Tie.

‘Help!’ he shrieked.

He clutched wildly his throat.

‘Help! © '

He clutched his throat until his
wife came and tied his four-in-hand
for him, after which he quietly fin.
ished dressing. —-Datroit Tribune.

Au Ape’s Superstition.

Chief Utan, the auburn. haired
orang outang at tho zoo, is very\su-
perstitioys, and his convictions with
regard to straws are not limited to
the mere fact that they tell how the
wind blows. The chief believes that.
chewing a.straw with certain super.
natural qualities will bring his din-
ner hour around before 1 o'clock, the
regular time, an he daily tries te
put this theory into practice. From
among the heaps of strdw in bis
cage he selects with great care the
longest and strdightest. and after
having placed it in his mouth he
goes to the glass front of, the cage
and shading his eyes with his hand
peers to the rigiit and left in scarch
of the kecper with bis dinner. If
