THE mortality among sheep was
great during last week's storm , espec
ially in the vicinity of Oxford , vrhere
hundreds perished.
BOURBON county , Ky. , was carried \
by the Prohibitionists. There is , as
Mr. Romeo would literally remark ,
much nonsense in a name.
"REFORM is in the air , but it will re
main there if every reformer sticks to
his own little plan and turns up his
nose at all the others. N. Y. Herald.
HOMEOPATHIC doctor : "Smell that
now you're cured. " Patient : "Doctor
how much do I owe you ? ' * Doctor
"Twenty dollars. " Patient takes otv
a twenty dollar bill and says : "Sniel
that now you're paid. "
THE officials of Sioux City , Iowa ,
are getting after the brewers , saloon
ists and the "rummies , " in toto of thai
municipality , in a manner which is
rapidly convincing those law-breakers
that there is a God in Israel , of a ver
ity. Righteous laws in the hands o :
hone'st , fearless , capable officers are al
most invincible.
THE whole country will hear with
sorrow the news of the death of this
gentleman , who , elevated to the Presi
dency by accident , proved himself so
truly worthy of that high position ;
gentleman , a statesman , courteous anc
honest in every capacity , and of the
broadest National patriotism. Times-
Democrat , New Orleans.
A CITIZEN of Brantford , Canada ,
went shooting , got a good bag of crows
and the family cooked and ate the ill-
omened birds. The result was that each
person became violently ill and was
saved with difficulty , by the local doc
tors. The moral would seem to be ,
that none but the politician's stomach
is constituted for a generous dose of
crow. A liberal diet thereon by the
ordinary mortal were suicidal.
THE Atchison Champion says : "There
is no more beauty in a Kansas winter
than there is in a barb wire fence. So
we must even defy Nature to do her
worst. To shut out the wind and vary
the landscape we must plant trees and
still plant trees : we must for the bene
fit of the brute creation build sheds and
barns , and build railroads and push the
coal trains westward and establish be
times the reign of the basc-burn'er. "
BRAD SLAUGHTER seems to be the
only candidate so far for the clerk of
the house. James F. Zediker , who
was his successful opponent last year ,
and who is ajmost as chronic a candi
date as Brad himself , seems to be out
of the race ; and thdse who know best
infer from this fact and frera the very
affecting letter in which Zediker with
drew from the contest for the nomina
tion for Secretary of State and threw
his strength to Laws , that he will occu
py the chair of deputy under Mr. Laws'
administration of the office of Secre
tary of State. Omaha Herald.
CULTURE shows itself in taste for the
beautiful , and conversely taste is in
most cases the result of culture. The
proper method of fostering musical
taste is to secure the best music. The
ear cannot be educated through the
eye. Concerts and opera by trained
musicians and singers upon whom the
cultured world has placed the seal of
approval are the means of elevating
the musical taste. Proper musical in
struction by competent teachers , the
use of the higher class of music in the
home circle and at social gatherings ,
form the foundation upon which to
build up a taste which will not only
contribute to the gratification of the
possessor but add to the sum total of
human pleasure and art education.

Worse Than a Fire Alarm ,
One of the most dreadful alarms that
can be sounded in a mother's ear is
produced by croup ; dreadful , because
it is known to be dangerous ; the more
dreadful because the life of a loved one
! s in jeopardy. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is > a never failing safeguard
against this dangerous disease. Its
reputation as a preventive and cure
of croup is fully and firmly established ,
[ n fact , it is the only remedy which
can always be relied upon. Sold by
