1 he Courage of a Boston Girl,
A Boston girl, ret.ring at night,
found a rat in her rcom. She clos
ed the door and Btarted in wild pur
suit of the creaturo about the room.
She was just about to dealjit a crush
ing blow with the French heel of
her shoe when the rat took refuge iu
the spring of her bod, quite out of
her reach. Well. 8Bid she, I guess
after his experience he will stay
where he ha3 found he is safe. And
then she went tranquilly to bed and
slept ali night and in the morning
she got a terrier at a neighbor’s and
the dog ferreted out the rat and kill
e.i it. There have been ablesbodied
:u isealine persons who have leaped
madly out of bed upou hearing
what they supposed to bo a mouse
buriowing in the mattress.

THE NOBLEST ROMAS OFTHEM ALL
A Sketch of Allen tJ. Thurman, the
Next Nice President.
When, on March 3, 1881, Alien G.
Thurman's ; ud term of service as
a United S; Senator expired, the
veteran went d to the practice of
law and to bis studies. About three
years ago ho moved into a new resi
dence at Columbus, the city where
he bas lived since 1856. To obey
the present call of his party, he
is willing to enter politics once
more, although seventy-five years of
age. Allen
It is needless to state that
G. Thurman is held in the nighest
esteem by both political parties as a
statesman of learning,experience and
softy character. He is a native of
the State of Virginia, ami was born
at Lynchburg, November 13, 1813.
Mr. Thurman's father was a Baptist
preacher, who, when his boy Allen
was seven years old, moved from
Lynchburg to Chillicothe, Ohio, and
tnere taught school and started a
small woollen manufactory. Shortly
after this there came to Chillicothe a
fine looking old Frenchman, named
Gregoire, with a daughter about the
age of young Allen, and Allen's moth
er took the little french maiden into
her house to live on condition that
her father should teach young Allen
French. She did not understand a
word of English, and Allen did not
understand a word of French. They
played together and with the teach
ibg from the daughter, the boy soon
became quite a French scholar. He
received a thorough education, stud
ied law and was admittled to the bar
when twenty-two years of age.
After having practiced law for
some years at Columbus. Ohio, he
was returned as a representative of
the Twenty-ninth Congress. In 1851
he was elected a Judge of the Su
premo Court of Ohio, and was Chief
Justice in the court from 1854 to
1856, He was a candidate for the
Governorship of the State iu 1867,
but was defeated. A year iater be
was elected United States Senator,
and took his seat March 4. 1869. He
was re-elected in 1874, and his sec
ond term of service expired March 3,
1881. John Sherman succeeded him
in the United States Senate.
Mr. Thurman bis been a Presi
deutial quantity at recent Democratic
conventions. At that held in Chi
cago his friends wore as their colors
a red bandanna Landkerehief, and
j their cheers were for “Old snuff,” as
' they affectionately cdied him. The
i statesman learned to take snuff from
JJ. Gregoire. Ho has kept ap the

Cut Dowa the Dog Fennel.
The dog fennel growing rank and
filling up our public streets and
crowding the sidewalks is a disgrace
to the city and a crying reproach to
its officials. To a stranger it makes
the town look like a dead village,
such as Barnesville or Forsyth—a
place literally given over to weeds,
and turned out to die.
There is no necessity for this. In
fact, the remedy is very simple. Dog
fennel is an annual, seeding itself
every year like other weeds. If cut
down before the seed is ripe, in a few
years it would die ont. With a mow
er it could all be cat down in two or
three days.
If this is not done, it will become
thicker each year.
Let the city rent a mower, or buy
one if can’t do better. There is great
talk at certain seasons about improv
ing tbs streets, but there is no im
provement more necessary than this,
and none that would be more peyma
nent.
