The South Carolina method of deal
ing with the liquor question will be
watched with a great deal more than
ordinary interest. All liquors are to be
sold by agents of the state, who are to
receive a salary, and be appointed
wherever a dispensory is desired by tho
community. Liquor is to be sold at a
profit and the profit go to the state. No
sale to minors or drunkards; no treat
ing; in prohibition towns and counties,
no liquors except for medicinal and me
chanical purposes; drug stores to sell no
liquor except alcohol, and this muBt be
purchased from tho state, and presuma
bly sold under close restrictions. Those
who believe that agents of the state will
mako the most conscientious saloon
keepers will keep track of the new law
and its workings.
And now comes another raise in fig
ures in which the state of Nebraska is
concerned; a bill appropriating money
0 defray the expense of the impeach

senate was a more economical body, re
ducing this amount to $15,000, and
sending the bill back to the house in
that form, that body concurring; ir. the
senate amendment. It appepjg now,
however, that the bill which m-m J

have had burdens enough lately from
men sent to Lincoln to work for (instead
of prey upon), the people, without this
$10,000 steal. The Fremont Tribune, in
calling attention to this little ten thou
sand item, says that the mysterious ma
nipulation of the figures seems to have
some connection with an attempt of the
attorneys chosen to prosecute the im
peachment cases, to copiously "bleed"
the state. They have demanded 80,000
each as their fees, $18,000, or $3,000
more than the legislature appropriated
for the entire expense of the trial. The
trial is expected to last two, possibly
three, months. It is not usual that such
large fees fall 60 plumply into the laps
of the lawyers. If the Tribune is correct
in its figures, neither Greene, Found nor
Doane has made more than half of
$6,000 in a whole year ht any time dur
ing the past ten years, and Greene never
a quarter of it at law practice in a single
year in his life.

"BENNIES BOQUET."
Br HIS AUNT, XTBIA1I BAIBD BUCK.
The horses were harnessed.
The farewells were said.
So swiftly the time of
Oar visit had sped;
There were hand-clasp of elders,
And may lie a tear.
And the children with childish
Good-byes drawing near.
When dear little Bennie
Ban oat in the yard.
And found some late blooms
On the fast-fading sward.
Wound their delicate stems
With some binding-twino, and
Laid the sweet parting gift
In his fond ancle's hand.
A wand of the fairies,
To ward off the ills
Of oar long railway journey.
To Northern home-hills;
The mothor stood, smiling.
And other child-eyes
Were bright at the fitness
Of "Bennie's surprise."
The maples were turning
To cream and maroon,
The apples were rosy
From fingers of Jane;
So sylvan the shades
And so sacred the ground.
So quiet and eacef ul
The farm-folk around.
We longed for a yoar
Of each sunshine as this,
There was nothing that feeling
Or fancy could miss:
To list to the blue bird.
And look at the jay.
And breathe tho sweet breath
Of tho wheatlands and hay.
There were meadows and gardens.
And raspberry lanes.
And the bibs of young robins
Were rod with tho stains,
But nothing we saw
Or that happened, wo say.
Is more sweet to remember
Than Bennie's Boquet.

A LITTLE MICHIGAN MAN.
A O Haat
Chirge Lad
by a HO-Pound
Thero were four men in the smok
ing compartment of the Pullman car
on the '.-Flying Yankee" train coming
down from Portland that evening.
Three were drummers and the fourth
was a reporter. One of the drummers
has the reputation of being the
heaviest commercial traveler in Boston,
according to the Boston Herald,
weighing in the neighborhood of 300
pounds. He talked with a little man
who also sold goods.
Now, this little man didn't weigh
over 110 pounds, he wasn't over five
feet in height, and he had one of the
most genial faces imaginable, not
withstanding a sharp, piercing eye.
The big man sported three badges,
one of which and perhaps the others
as well told that he was a member
of the Grand Army of the Republic.
The little man woro nothing in that
line, and he didn't look like a lighter.
The conversation turned on street
car incidents, and each one related a
story of trouble with drunken passen
gers. Then the little man said: "I
don't like to fight, and I don't look
like a fighter, but I had a good one
once ril never forget it Feel that!"
He bared his head and, taking each
man by the hand, indicated a deep in
dentation in his scalp, about two and
a half inches long, just over his right
temple.
That nearly cost me my life, but it
won me a. major's commission," he
said. The members of the party
looked aghast as the little man went
on.
It was when Grant was anxious to
get into Richmond. I was captain of
a troop of cavalry. When the war
commenced I was a second lieutenant
in the regular army and managed to
reach a captaincy during the struggle.
"At the time I speak of I had been
sent out early one morning with two
companies, comprising all told about
eighty men, to tear up a few rails on
the Weldon railroad. We spent the
day industriously, and it would have
been hard on any train that at
tempted to get over the place where
we had been at work when we fin
ished. It was about 5 o'clock in the after
noon when we heard the clatter of
horses' hoofs, and we had just time to
get together before lour companies of
cavalry were upon us.
"It was a trying moment- I toll
you. There were about 180 men to
my eighty. I surely thought we were
caught in a trap, but I wouldn't give
up without trying once, and we went
to work. There was one point in our
favor. The rebels were as much
surprised to come across us as we were
to have them.
"Our bugler sounded the order to
charge. And charge we did. I doubt
if ever eighty men went to work with
more determination. We rode at the
oncoming horsemen as Sheridan rode
to 'Winchester, and with cries that
rivaled in sound the noise of 1,000 In
dians, we went through the ranks of
the gray-uniformed men.
One hundred feet beyond them
the bugler sounded the order to turn,
and we turned in a trice. Back we
went through the ranks and when we
reached the spot where we had first
started, we turned again. Back
through those ranks, with the blood
curdling yells we drove, and with
scarcely the swing of a saber on the
second trip our victory was won.
"The rebels thought there were a
dozen companies instead of two. 500
men. instead of eighty, and they dis
persed and fled. They could not
stand such an onslaught; and since
then, in thinking it over, I don't know
as I blame them. We made a dash to
save our lives, and we succeeded.
"How did I think of making such a
move? Why. I had no time to think.
We had a 'forlorn hope.' that was alL
1 knew that a simple oharge against
such odds as were against us would
have been supine, altogether too slow,
and, in tho excitement of the moment,
I did what came to my mind at first.
"Yes, I won a major's commission
by it; but I wouldn't take another
scratch like the one in my head, or
spend another half-hour like that one
to be a general."
As the little man stepped from the
car in the Boston depot, two men on
the platform met them with, Colonel,
how are you?"
Tho little man won that title later.
He lives out in Michigan now, but
many Bostonians know him. and they
also know that this story is a true one.
Can't Be Done Always.
Some of the Maine coast dwellers
are no better off in respect to school
and church privileges than the pooplo
of tho Aroostook wilderness, who
never see anything much except trees
and bears. A man who lives on Great
Diamond Island,' Portland low harbor,
has threo children of school age. but
there is no school on Grand Diamond,
and therefore he appealed to the mayor
of Portland for assistance in the mat
ter. It has been arranged that tho
children be transported daily, at tho
city's expense to Peak's island, where
there is a school. It isn't overy poor
family who have a privato steamboat
at their disposal daily, as in this case,
and the children enjoy the distinction
about as much as they do the trip.
A Beggar Bog.
Ono of the most persistent beggars
in Portland, Ma. is a collie dog which
is very fond of doughnuts. Tho collie,
in company with its mistress, visited
a bakery one day last fall and, per
ceiving somo doughnuts in a show
case, he sat down and pleaded, by
means of short sharp barks, for a
treat The clerk generously fed the
smart dog, but now he wishes that he
hadn't for every day since the collie
has appeared to beg for more dough
nuts. If the shop door is closed he
will wait outside until some one opens
It and then dodge in to get his regu
lar free lunch.
So Bo the Bade.
Do you believe monkeys talk?"
"No; they chatter."
"But they soem to understand each
other."
Oh. well! What of it? So do
dudes!" Exchange.

Dear Sir: After wearing your glasses threo
weeks I feel I cannot say enough for them, nor
for your special method of skillful fitting.
For the past eighteen years I have been a con
stant sufferer from defective sight (Compound
Myopic Astigmatism). Nothing I could get was
satisfactory until your examination which I
noticed was strictly scientific, and inspired ma
at once with confidence in four ability.
I now have no trouble in reading the finest

glasses I most cheerfully recommend you as a

Castoria Is the best remedy- f or children of
which I am acquainted. I hope tho day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, aad use Castoria in
stead of toe various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup aad other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premntare graves."
