“When the hurried shadows gather
Over all the starry spheres,
And the melancholy darkness
Gently weeps in rainy tears,
What a joy to press the pillow
Of a cottage chamber bed
And listen to the patter
Of the soft rain overhead.”

It makes a poor fellow feel mighty
good, and causes him to experience some
very curious, though sweet sensations,
to have some fair creature smile lovingly
on him as he travels along with a weary
footstep down the rugged pathway of
this transitory life. Is’nt it so ?

APAIRSVILLE.
fo*of. Cain closed the fall term of his
school last Friday. And as a testimony
of a teacher’s tender solicitude and the
faithful discharge _of every duty that
makes a good scholar, a pleasant occa
sion was offered the members of this
school and their friends on the evening of
the day above mentioned. In response
to a very cordial invitation, though
couched in a modest way as to the na
ture of this entertainment, your knight
of the quill wended his way up to the
academy under the rays of a bright
October sun and a desire to be a specta
tor on this occasion. Long tables, on
whose margin plates were laid, and the
owner of this stoneware familiarizing
the coat of arms stamped thereon that
they might not get misplaced, made an
interesting picture. Further on we no
tice the steaming boilers, from which a
large spoon was lifted in the hand of
some pretty maiden fair with serious
intent, then the merry voices from little
children with all exultation, was conclu
sive evidence that a veritable candy
cooking was now in progress, and that
the pulling time would be determined on
when the future destiny was read through
the “drip” from that cooking b,y some
expert. This crystalline vegetation was
then in trim to knead or pulled out into
sticks, and most every one went at it
with a will until it looked a monogram
of gestures, with a good picture on the
line of calesthenics. Some pride was
manifested by the younger in getting
their candy to a more decent color, and
an occasional challenge could be heard
“that mine is \Vhiter than yours.” A
young American would then let fall his
treasured stock, and with grievance and
anger look around to see who was watch
ing, then proceed with all precision the
pulling of candy and everything else that
was mingled with it from the mishap.
Everybody enjoyed themselves. Every
body had candy enough and ate Q. S. as
the doctors say, without any medical
assistance. The incidents of the day
were furthered into a masquerade party
given in the academy at night, and at
seven o’clock the doors were thrown
open, and then entered subjects fit for
Easter decorations. Again the seven
colors were proportioned off on lad and
lassie. Those in costume mingled with
each other with an occasional prome
nade. After the sign of recognition was
made, an end man was seen now aud
then in his comical looks with an attempt
to kick a tumbler of water from the
mantle. Games were indulged in until a
late hour. Every known device in a
quiet way were resorted to in making all
have a nice time, and we are confident no
one was disappointed. Prof. Cain and
his good lady, with the assistance of the
generous young ladies, deserve especial
thanks for their efforts in making this
occasion so successful.

PAUPER HOME.
The wind is blowing ver, unpleasant
this morning for cotton pickers, but
most of the fields are snow white, and we
will have to bend our backs and go at it.
Mr. John Hunter aud wife, of Cobb, are
visiring their nephew, Mr. W.. B. Vaughan,
much to ids delight.
Some of our people attended the fourth
quarterly conference held at Miller's
Chapel last Wednesday. In Cue morning
we heard an excellent sermon from ihe
Presiding Elder Lowery. The clever peo
ple of that place had dinner on the
ground and we heartily partook of it.
The conference then met and were until
very near sun-down getting through
with the business.
We had two sermons yesterday instead
of one; in the morning by Rev. E. J.
Shaw, and in the afternoon by our clever
brother Rev. W. T. Hamby; he then an
nounced that he would preach again for
us the first Sunday evening in next
month on “Moses' Choice.”
Most of our young people went to the
singing at Miller’s Chapel yesterday. Mr.
\V. T. Goode and Mr. Jim Jordan were
among them, accompanied by, well we
will not say who. Billy Jones,
Sail Scenes at the Wreck.
Rome, October 22.—A dispatch from
Patenza says that there was 4,000 pas
sengers on the train which was crushed
by the landslide a few days ago. One
hundred and fifty dead and wounded
have been identified. Many of the vic
tims are unknown. Scores continue to
be unearthed. Soldiers are working hard
at the wreck. The work is impeded by
the cold and snow. An entire theatrical
company was killed: Several headless
and armless corpses have been found in
the neighboring river. A mother who
had been driven mad by the catastrophe
refused to release from her embrace her
two dead children. A youug priest was
buried for two hours, and when extricated
it was found that his hair had turned
white. An entire family, consisting of
six persons, was killed.
A dispatch from Nebraska City, Neb.,
reports that a heavy snow, lasting near
ly all day and covering the ground to
the depth of three inches, fell there Sun

Twin Rabies.
This is the heading of a large three
column advertisement which recently
occurred in the Courant-American.
Those who read it will no doubt be anx
ious to know whether it is true that all
of the articles named in the list of pres
ents are sent in each box of the “Sweet
Home Soap.” Yes, it is true, and the
firm which makes the offer is reliable and
well established.
“Sweet Home Soap” is of an extra
ordinary fine quality, and no one is dis
appointed who uses it. It bears no
comparison to the cheap soaps with
which our markets are flooded. The
method of selling the soap is a novel one
and readily commends itself to every
one-, since those who buy 'it get all the
profits usually paid out for traveling
salesmen, wholesale and retail grocers,
etc. Besides, no payment is asked until
the goods are received and have ei on
trial in the house for thirty days.
The soap is delivered right at the door,
all freight charges prepaid and arrange
ments made so that if one is not satisfied
after seeing the presents and using the
soap, the box will be taken away without
expense or outlay of any kind. A postal
card sent to J. D. Larkin A Cos., Buffalo,
N. Y., will bring a box on trial.
Macon Telegraph: Germany sent 5,-
500,000 gallons of gin and rum to Africa
last year, and, if a published story about
the quality of the liquor is true, it cannot
be doubted that Bismarck, in trying to
conquer the country, is employing an
agency more powerful than Krupp guns.
The story, told at a church congress,
was to the effect that the body of a go
rilla, put into a barrel of the German
liquor for preservation during transpor
tation to Europe, had the hair burned off
as with aflame. It must be acknowledged
that this is doingjust a little better than
the best American forty-rod, and the
Africans are no doubt falling thick aud
fast. Bismarck is a man of gin, as well
as of blood and iron. It strikes us that
this is not a civilized and Christian
business.
The firm of Nathan Corwith A Cos., of
Chicago, went under to the tune of $2,-
000,000, because they tried to corner
the entire out-put of lead and it wouldn’t
corner.
Hit ’Km Again.
The following resolutions have been
unanimously adopted by the Farmers'
Alliance of Thomas county:
Whereas, The manufacturers of jute
bagging have entered into a combination
by which the farmers of the south are
deprived of thousands of dollars of their
legitimate profits, and,
Whereas, We feel confident that cotton
can be substituted for jute, thereby cre
ating a home market for thousands of
bales of our poorest cotton, for which
there is but little sale now, and also
keeping at home millions of dollars,
which are now sent out of the country
annually for tire purchase of jute, there
fore,
Be it resolved, Ist. That after this
season, we will not use any more jute
bagging,
2nd, That if cotton bagging proves to
be effective, we pledge ourselves as farm
ers and as members of the Farmers'
Alliance of Thomas county, (la., to use
no other bagging but cotton after this
season, and ask our brother farmers and
alliance men throughout the south to
co-operate with us in trying to protect
ourselves.
3rd, That we put all parties interested,
on notice of this fact; and further, that
we ask our home manufacturers to give
us cotton bagging at a reasonable profit,
and pledge ourselves to patronize them
in preference to all others.
Public Cost of the Squeeze in Wheat.
Washington Craftsman.
On Monday next, it is announced, one
cent will be added to the price of every
loaf of bread sold in this city. Ao doubt
this will also be done in every other city
in this country where the value of one
cent is not taken from the size and value
of the present loaf. Estimating that the
60,000,000 inhabitants of this country
are grouped into 12,000,000 families and
that each family will consume two loaves
per day we ’have the sum of 24,000,000
cents, or $240,000 per day levied upon
the American people.
The Lane mills lire now manufacturing
15,000 yards a day of the new cotton
bagging. The fabric was curiously tested
by representatives of the board of under
writers. Bales covered with it and with
jute, part of them comprised, were
sandwiched in a heap in rise -turret and
set on fire. The jute burned quickest.
