Geokge D. Meiklejohx. Walt. M. Seelky, Chairman. Secretary. The citizens are becoming anxious to know why the Journal does not turn over the Shattuck fund to the proper persons to receive it. This city was among the first to raise a fund and it is- disgrace to the town that it has not been turned over long ago. A dispatch from aslungton says that the difficulty with the Moorish gov eminent has been satisfactorily settled and the country is now anxious to know the process Secretary Bayard adopted in the humiliation of this country and how much the Moors have gained through his folly and weakness. TnK investigation of the Jackson Miss., election outrages is disclosing facts in which the whole country will be in terested, as they go to show by what processes democratic majorities are ob tained in communities where there is preponderance of republican voters. It is well known that fair elections long since ceased to be held in the south, and perhaps there is no legitimate way to rectify the wrong: but investigations of this kind will at least serve the purpose of keeping the matter before the people. and stimulating public sentiment against the party that profits by such wickedness. , Globe Democrat.

Hence pru dence requires that in manufacturing beams they be made capable of bearing at least six times the greatest weight that could be laid upon them. Globe-Demo crat. lijieno Ayres.

II we know all the methods of approach adopted by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward off the daDger and post pone the moment when surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances the inher ent strength ot" the body suffices to enable it to oppose the tendency toward death. Many however have lost these forces to sail an extent that there is little or n.o help. In other cases a little aid to the weakened lungs will make all the differ ence between sudden death and many years of useful life. Upon the first symp turns of a cough, cold or any trouble of the throat or lungs, give that old and well known remedy Boschec's German Syrup, a careful trial.

There is a good story told of a Wesleyan student, one of the boat's crew that lin ished second in a flotilla of six at Sara togti some years ago. lie was a slim, good looking fellow, without a trace of a pedant in his makeup. He became en amored of the daughter of a well to do farmer, who lived not far from the lake. The farmer objected to him on general principles, and tried to break off the ac quaintanceship; he did not want a minis ter for a son-in-law, and the young man seemed too light waisted for a rough bat tle with the world. Returning early one night he found the pair of lovers seated on the sofa, and at once proceeded to take off his coat. "If your father raises his hand against me, I shall not strike back, but I will pull hi3 nose," whispered the Lothario. Now, medical men pronounce the nose a most delicate and sensitive organ, and anything beyond gentle dalliance with it is provocative of great pain. But? the old gentleman sailed in, and dragging tU student lover to the doorsill ho deposited several pounds of kicking power under his coat tails. This was too much, and true to his word the young atldete seized the old man's nose twixt his fingers and wrung it heartily. In this - unexpected turn of affairs the theologian was revealed in a new light. "Let go! let go! she's yours!" yelled tho pained but discreet father. "You shall marry her at the earliest opportu nity." And he did. Alfred Trumble in New York News. Proud Savages of Patagonia. The Patagonian Indians are a high grade of savages, have more intelligence than the natives of the tropical latitudes, are more honorable and less cruel. It is said that the Patagonian will never keep an agreement with a Spaniard, for the Spaniard has never kept faith with him. But he can be relied upon by every other nationality, A German trader who has had much to do with them during several years' experience at Puenta Arenas, told me that when a Tehuelches chief agreed to bring him skins and feat h ers, he brought them if they were to be found in the country. If the same chief agreed to bring the same things to a Chili trader across the way he was cer tain not to do it. If the Chili trader called him to account he would answer, 'JViauana" (to-morrow), the word tho Spaniard always uses to excuse himself from carrying out a bargain. This prac tice is so universal that the Spaniards have been driven out of the trading busi ness. The Indians would not sell to them till all the other traders were supplied, e-en when they offered - higher prices. Philadelphia Times. 3rflas!n;j a Patient. Here Is a case that happened out west a few years since. The graduating class in one of our medical colleges was advised at the last by the old professor never to acknowledge ignorance, but always, when called, to give some treatment. One of the class settled in a western town, and atier some years the old professor, in traveling, got a piece of bone in his throat iu this same town, and the young doctor being called, failed by every means in his power to dislodge the obstruction, and then having recognized the old professor, stripped him and rubbed him with lard. This so amused the old professor that ho coidd not restrain a hearty laugh, which dislodged the bono, and he asked the doc tor, "Why in thunder did you grease me?" The reply was, "You told me when I was about to graduate always to do some thing, so I greased you, not knowing what else to do." Williamsport Sun and Banner. Tears of " Schweitzer Kasc." Next in popularity with all classes of people is the ordinary Swiss cheese, more familiarly known as "Schweitzer ka.se." Wherever there is Swiss or Germans there is also Schweitzer kase and lager beer. No free lunch counter is fully equipped Without its slices of rye bread and Swiss cheese. This cheese is very compact ex cept for the numerous cavities scattered throughout it, varying in size from an eighth of an inch to a full inch iu diame ter. When the cheese is of the best qual ity a drop of water, sparkling and as clear as crystal, will be found in each cavity. The Germans call these drops of water "tears," and in giving their order to the waiter they usually say: "Bring me some ochweitzer and a tear."; Chicago News. The Data Was Correct.

This is fore-shadowed bv the number of storms we haye already had the most destructive one so far this year having occurred at Mt.
