A True Sketch of a Koble Boy.
(From the Boys and Girls of the South.)
‘What a splendid looking boy! strangers
would say, as Ltwrence Benson passed tLem
with elastic step, erect carriage, fine, open face
and beaming bine eyes—the impersonation of
yontbfnl grace an i beauty.
‘Ah ! that s young Benson,’ would be the re
ply. ‘A fine boy, a noble fellow—a born Chris
tian I call Liui. He j >ined the Church here iu
Atlanta at t >n years old; seat never been va
cant at Church, Sunday school or prayer meet
ing since, that I know of; at the public school
here bis name ha; stood on the roll call of hon
or the past six years. B al mother's boy. I
never saw such tenderness as exists between
them. Lawrence is polite and kiud to all, hut
for that mother of his he will make any sacri
fice. He loves play—all healthy boys do—but
he’d give up the most fascinating g one in the
world for his mother s pleasure or comfort.’
S .» he would, and hold it no sacrifice, so ten
derly did he regard his mother. It was a sad
thing when he bad to part from her. The beau
tiful home at L ke W.er, Florida, the fishing
and hunting, the company of the brother and
f ther he loved so well could not counter-bal
ance the pain of parting with the dear mother
on whoso neck ho clung.
‘But it will only be tor a little while,’ be s iii.
‘If yon do not get well enough to join us there,
we are coming back here, Charley and I, and
slay with you and go to school.’
The mother was compelled to stay in the more
bracing climate of Atlanta, for a trial of the new
home had shown her that with all its soft skies
and fragrant airs, Fiorica meant disease and
death for her, so she could not enj >y the pretty
lake side home, the yellow fruited orange groves,
the birds, the fl iwery plains and blue, emerald
encircled waters. But Lawrence and Cuarley
thought it splendid, and in their merry compa
ny his father felt young again. That was a glo
rious holiday time—those Indian Summer days
in that lovely land—the hunting in the woods,
the fishing in the Lake, the delicious f.uit,
fresh gathered and juicy, tue occasional exout-
8ions to the river Ocklawaha, a few miles d stant,
whose current was plowed by a little steamer
that brought freight and mails from Jackson
ville. Lawrence was fond of bunting and was a
good shot. He was now fourteen, supple and
active and finely formed. He and his brother
were a splendid looking pair. Their father ex
pressed his pride iu them in his letters to their
absent mother. Letters flow to her as fast as
even her loving heart could wish. Lawrence's
were fall of descriptions of his work and his
play; how they were helping father and what
splendid times they had; how fat and well they
were and how happy they would all he if only
dear mother was with them. But they would
see her soon.
‘Yes, soon,' echoed her yearning heaTt as she
busied herself preparing clothes for her boys.
They should have now suits ready for the com
ing winter. She would send them in a box
packed with other things they might like.
Wben the clothes were ready, the box was
packed; many nice things went into it beside
the clothes to tell of a mother's thoughtful ten
derness. The tri > of loved ones at Luke Wier
received word th«t the box bad come—had been
pnt off the steamer a* the landing on the river
three miles .rom their home.
‘And we will go after it ourselves Charley,’
Lawrence said to his brother. ‘We ll take the
wagon and the ox^n; you 11 drive and III carry
my gun along. May be, I'll get a chance at a
duck.'
Oa the day after the box arrived at the Land
ing on the Florida river, Mrs. B uson at her sis
ter's in Atlanta received a letter from Lawrence
—a letter full of affecti in and cheery hope. She
read it with brimming eyes and kissed the
f ank, boyish lines. Could she have seen
the hand that had traced them as it then lay !
But she foreboded no evil to her boy. Y it she
was strangely restless that day. Was it a vague
presentiment stirring within her ? She insisted
upon s ttiug her room, her trunks and drawers
all in order, and she felt while doing it as if s ie
were preparing for something—for some nnex-
pec ed guest. A as ! it was for one whoso shad
ow darkens many a heart and hearth. That
evening as she sat by the fire, there came a ring
at the door-bell, and her sister went into the
hall and opening the door, found Dr. Spauld
ing, the beloved pastor of their Caarch,
A visit from him wsb not unusual. He was of
ten a welcome guest at me house; but now his
face and his manner bore witness to an agitation
be could not control. Ho drew Mrs. S - into
the parlor and handed her a te.egram he had re
ceived.
‘We must break the news to her,’ he said
huskily. ‘Our poor sister; it will boa crushing
blow.’
Bat she did not wait for it to be broken to her
gradually. The restless feeling that had been
struggling within her all day prompted her to
follow them. Taeir low voices increased her
anxiety. She came up to them and besought
them to tell her what was the matter. Ia & lew
minutes she knew the purport of that dreadful
telegram:
•Lawrence Benson accidentally shot through
the heart.’
Oae must needs draw a veil over the agony
that followed. None but i heart that has had
its hope, its pride, part of ils very life torn from
it by one BUdden wrench oan understand the
anguish the mother suffered. That she had not
Been him, had not held him in her arms iu his
last moments and cungbt upon her lips his flat
tering breath was added bitterness to ter cup.
Ai soon as mersages coaid come, she knew the
details of the dreadful accident; kmw her two
boys had started out that evening, happy and
expectant, to bring home ‘mother’s box,’ that
their father had watched them move ofl side by
side and thought to himself he had never seen a
fiuor pair than those two boys, nor a brighter
face than Lawrence’s. Lawrence carried his
gnn swung lightly across his shonlder&nd leap
ed with it into the wagon; Cuarley taking tin
lines. Bat the oxen were nnraly and started in
a run down the hill, with their heads turned to
wards tue woods. Liwrence jumped from the
wagon and rnn around before the refractory an
imate to check them and tarn them into the
road. Having succeeded, he was hastening
back to his place, and had reached the wagon
and with his hands on its sides was about to
spring in, when the oxen again started, the trig
ger of the gnn that he had left in the wagon
caught in something and the whole contents of
the barrel were discharged into his breast.
Wnen his brother reached him where he lay
bleeding on the grass, he was speechless and
dying. Half wild with grief, Charley ran back
for his father and the two bore the insensible
form to the house. Not till he looked at the
closed eyes and deathly face and at his own
body drenched with the boy’s blood, did the
6‘ficken father realizithat his boy so lately full
oi splendid life and vigor was no more.
Ko more! The words are too mnch like the
knetl of all hope. It cannot be. Even if there
were no revelation from God, it would seem im
possible that such a mind and heart as Lawrence
Bens >n’s could be deniel their fall unfolding
under happier and higher auspices than this
w -rid hff <rds. . ,
Lawrence Benson s remains were brought to
Atlanta by bis uncle aDd in the beautiful Cem-
terv at Woodlawn Dear Augusta they sleep well
beneath the tnrf that now grows green under
the soft touches of Spring

Captain Boyton Arrives at Memphis.
‘Captain Boyton was in Memphis last night,’
said one ; ‘He’s up hereon the river bank,’ said
another ; ‘He has s b >at with him that he rides
in,’ said another ; ‘No,’ replied another person,
‘he has no boat, he swims all the time.' ‘Bat he
sleeps at night on shore,’ pnt in a stranger ; ‘O
coarse he does,’ chimed in several ladies : ’Not
at all,’ answered a would-be wise man, ‘be sleeps
on the water ’ ‘But he has to oomi on land
sometime,’ suggested a pretty and innoc- nt-
looki g girl. And so the conversation wagged
nut 1 the ‘to w bead’ of the ‘Old Hen’ hove in
B'ght. At this point some one exclaimed,
‘Yonder he is! People rushed to the forward
part of the boit and s'rained tlr.-ir eyes at a
speck up the river close to the Arkansas shore,
but a man with an opor - -lass said it was a snag,
ana then everybody became disgns'ed and felt
at if they hud strnc't a snag and sunk. In a
f jw minutes the Pierson’s commenced swinging
the bend around the tow-head, when a d( z n
voices exclaimed, T see him ! yonder be is! and
sure enough it was
CAPTAIN PAUL BOYTON
h e maritime floating turtle, who appeared like
a black ball far away up the river in the shadow
cast by the Arkansas woods. A couple of skiffs
were seen palling from the shore in the direc
tion of the adventurous voyageur Everybody
kept silent, and all eyes were directed at the
floating object. Soon the rise and dip of the
pad.ile could be seen, and then hope changed
into certainty, and a rousing cheer went np
from the excursionists, the General Pierson
blew her whistles load &Dd long, and th9
Parrot gun belched forth a fiery greeting. As
Captain Boytoo approaohed, the wheels of the
General Pierson were partially stopped, and
the boat was held in inid-stream. S ion a
tram pet was heard eound/ng over the waters,
and Captain Bay ton’s musical response was re
ceived with cheers and waving of handkerchiefs.
Captain Boyton looked like a sea-porpoise,
rol.ing along on the waves His paddle ros e
and fell with the regularity of clockwork, as he
propelled himself feet foremost d »wa toward
the Pierson. He was Boon alongsile, an 1 was
surrounded bv skiffs. He received many con
gratulations from those on board.
The life-saving dress which has become so fa
mous, and with which he has aooomplished
such great results, was invented about seven
years a’O. The suit is formed of two pieces -
tnnic and pantal ions. The pantaloons are com
posed of air chambers, and terminate in a circu
lar steel band at the waist, over which is run
two square-3 .lotildered rings or ridges of soft
rubber. The tunic contains three air-chambers,
one in the back, breast and head. The j ointure
at the waist is made by looping the tnnic over
the ridges in the pantaloons waist, and a belt
then drawn over all makes the j >int perfectly
w iter-tiyh . The face is the only part of the
body exposed, an 1 the air-chamber, when in
flated, furnishes an excellent pillow, raising the
head slightly. The suit is inflated through
tubes leading to the chambers, and inflation
can be dene at will in the water. The dresi is
made of purePera rubber, and although of del
icate construction is calculated to withstand the
most tempjstnous seas.—Memphis Times.
Things Worth Knowing.
That fish may be scaled mnch easier by dip
ping irto boiliog water about a minute.
That fiih may as well be scaled, if desired,
before packing down in salt; though, in that
case, do not scald them.
Salt fish are quickest and brs‘. freshened by
soaking ia sour milk.
That milk which is turned or changed may
be s vetenad and rendered fit for n->e again by
stirring in a little soda.
That salt will curdle new milk ; hence, iu
preparing milk porridge, gravies, etc., the salt
should not be added until the dish is prepared.
That fresh meat, after beginning to s mr, will
sweeten if placed out of doors in the cool over
night.
xnat clear boiling water will remove tea-staiDS
and many fruit stains Pour the water through
the stain, and thus prevent it from stealing
over the fabric.
That ripe tomatoes will remove ink and other
stains from white cloth, also from the hands.
That a teaspoonful of turpentine boiled with
yonr white c’othes will aid the whitening pro
cess.
That boiled s arch is mnch improved by the
addition of a little sperm, or a little salt, or
both, or a little gam arabic dissolved.
That beeswax and salt will make yonr flat
irons as clean and smooth as glass. Tie a lamp
of wax in a rag and keep it for that purpose.
When the irons are hot rnb them first with the
wax-rag, then scour with a paper or rug sprinkled
with salt.
That blue ointment and kerosene, mixed in
equal proportions, and applied to bedsteads,
is an unfailing b <d bug remedy ; and that a coat
of whitewash is ditto for the walls of a dog
house.
That kerosene will soften boots or shoes which
have been hardened by water, and render them
as pliable as new.
That kerosene will make tin tea-kettles as
bright as new. Saturate a woolen rag and rnb
with it. I will also remove stains from clean
varnished furniture.
K ep salt in a dry place.
Kuep yonr yeast in wood or glass.
Keep fresh la.*d in tin vessels.
Keep preserves and j dlies in glass.
K»ep meal and flrnr in a cool, dry place.
Kuep vinegar in wood, glass, or stone ware.
Sugar is an admirable ingredient in curing
meat or fish.
Crusts and pieces of bread should be kept in
an earthen j ir, closely covered, in a dry, cool
place.
L ird for pastry shonld be need as hard as it
can be cut witb a knife. It should be cat
through the flour, not rubbed.
In boiling meat for soup, use cold water to ex
tract the juices. If the meat is wanted for itself
alone, plunge it into bailing water at once.
To prevent meat from Bcorching during roast
ing. place a basin of water in the oven ; the
s earn generated prevents scorohing and makes
the meat cook better.
Broil steak without salting. Salt draws the
j uices in cooking ; it is desirable to keep these
m, if possible. Cook over a hot fire, turn fre
quently, searing on both sides ; place on a plat
ter ; salt and pepper to taste.
Beef that has a tendcooy to be tough oan be
made very palatable by stewing gently for two
hours with pepper and salt, taking out about a
pint of the liquid when half done, and letting
the res 1 , boil into the meat. Brown the meat in
the pot. After taking np, make a gravy of the
pint of liquor saved.

He Runs Down and Captures Alive a Big
Black Mountain Wolf.
S. L. Kirtley, the proprietor of the hotel at
Brownington, was the hero of a wolf-chase on
Friday last, which for bold, dare-devil rackless-
n8 8, would do credit to a Comanche banter. Mr.
Klrtly had started out to subpoena witnesses
who lived down on Hillegras prairie, in the
southeastern part of this county, and while ri
ding leisurely along be espied a large black wolf
in a wheat field close by* Then an exciting race
commenced —a race for life. Spurring his horse
to its utmost speed he at onoe ^ava chase and
for miles over prairies and through fields, witb
here and there a skirt of timber, on they sped,
the wolf in the lead, but the brave rider and
dauntless little horse alvays in sight, and of en
close upon his heels. It* was a reckless ride
over fences and throngh farms, with never a
pan83 for breath. As they passed farm-hous< 8,
the heroic rider shouted for help, and others
joined in the chase, until the number of pursu
ers was a dozen or more; still the brave little
horse kept the lead, as one after another the
fresh steeds fell to the rear. After a race of
twenty or twenty-five miles, and when within a
quarter of a miie of Lowry City, a small village
in St. Clair county, the race ended, and ques
tion of endurance was determined in favor of
the rider and his gallant little steed, which ran
directly over his wolfship, knocking it down.
Kirtley was unarmed, and springing from his
saddle grasped the vioions animal by tLe
month, pinioning his j iws with a death-grip.
In a few minutes others came to his assistance,
and a strong cord was bound aronnd the wolfs
month, rendering it harmless. In their excite
ment. however, the parties drew the cords so
tight that the animal died of strangulation and
exhaustion, shortly after being captured. I
proved t > be a lull-grow black mountain wolf
fully three f e high, and wo lid weigh probably
one hundred founds, ana even looked mnch
larger.. Mr. Kirtly brought the carcass to town
on Saturday . an! it was on exhibition at Hirsch
& Co.’s hide ana fur store, where it was an ob-
j j ot of attraction to all passers-by. It was cer
tainly a vicious looking animal fora man to
tackle unarmed.

I IThe warm days we have had already filled the streets
with short spring suits, made in the prevailing style,
princess skirt, long jacket, with rolling collar and but

The vest, collar, cuffs and pocket, are usually of black
velvet, and the eut-a-way jacket is no longer masculine
with square coat tails, but is cut round like an ordinary
basque.

Cathartic Pills
Combine the choicest cathartic principles
in medicine, in proportions accurately ad
justed to secure activity, certainty, and
uniformity of effect. They are the result
of years of careful study and practical ex
periment, and are the most, effectual rem
edy yet discovered for diseases, caused by
derangement of the stomach, liver, and
bowels, which require prompt, and effectual
treatment. Ayer’s Pills are specially ap
plicable to this class of diseases. They act
directly on the digestive and assimilative
processes, and restore regular healthy ac
tion. Their extensive use by physicians in
tlieir practice, and by all civilized nations,
is one of the many proofs of their value as
a safe, sure, and perfectly reliable purgative
medicine. Being compounded of the con
centrated virtues of purely vegetable sub
stances, they are positively free from calo
mel, or any injurious properties, and can he
administered to children with perfect safety.
Ater’s Pills are an effectual cure for
Constipation or Costiveness, Indiges
tion, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite,
Foul Stomach and Breath, Dizziness,
Headache, Loss of Memory, Numbness,
Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheumatism,
Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Dropsy,
Tumors, Worms, Neuralgia, Colic,
Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Gout,
Piles, Disorders of the Liver, and all
other diseases resulting from a disordered
state of the digestive apparatus.
As a Dinner Pill they have no equal.
While gentle in their action, these Pills
are the most thorough and searching cathar
tic that can be employed, and never give
pain unless the bowels are inflamed, and
then their influence is healing. They stimu
late the appetite and digestive organs; they
operate to purify and enrich the blood, and
impart renewed health and vigor to the
whole system.
