ALABAMA’S LOSS.
burning of the agricultural and
MECHANICAL COLLEGE AT AUBURN.
Montgomery, Ai.a., Juno 24.—
The burning of the Agricultural
ami Mechanical Collego at Au
burn to-day was a great calamity.
The institution was established
under a grant by Congress of
lands to found such colleges in
tho several States. The annual
income from this source is $20,000
and $10,000 from the State. The
buildings were given the State
by the Methodist Church and
originally cost $85,000. A splen
did chemical laboratory together
with natural history, geological
and botanical cabinet and appa
ratus of all sorts had been gather
ed through many years and were
exceedingly valuable, main- of
the cabinet specimens being very
rare. Tho total value of tho ap
paratus, cabinets and contents de
stroyed were $100,000. The build
ing, with its improvements, were
also valued at over $100,000. All
is a total loss except a little
chemical apparatus and the con
tents of the treasurer’s and presi
dent’s office.
Tho fire broke out about 4 a. m.
in the State Chemical Laboratory
which had been used the day be
fore. The first assistant in this
department sleeps in the building
and at twelve o’clock last night
made an examination and found
all right everywhere. No doubt
is entertained but that tho fire
was caused by rats gnawing
matches. The insurance is
$30,000.
The building will be replaced
at once. Tho mechanical labora
tory, in a separate building was
uninjured.

The New York Observer is au
thority for the following: The
sentiment of the country is over
whelming against the continu
ance of saloon domination. There
can be no mistaking this fact.
The present movement is not de
pendent upon a wave of popular
excitement; it is not born of a
passing enthusiasm. It is the
outcome of years of wrong and
suffering induced by the cursed
drink traffic; it is a revolt of the
people against a power whose
reign of outrage, vice, and crime
lias become too terrible to be
longer endured.
A Gift for All.
In order to give all a chance to tost It.
and thus be convinced of its, wonderful
curative powers, Dr. Ring's New Discov
ery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,
will be, for a limited time, given away.
This offer is not only liberal, but shows
unbounded faith In the merits of this great
remedy. All who suffer from Coughs,
Colds, Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis,
or any affection of Throat, Chest or Lungs,
are especially requested to call at John M.
Clark's Drug Store, and get a Trial Bottle
Freo, Large Bottles $1.
It seems that tho term “corn” is
not correctly applied to anything
on a horse’s foot. What are
named corns on horses feet start
from inside of feet, while true
corns, like those men have, are
produced by pressure from with
out. The inflamed spots near tho
heels of a horse are the result of
internal inflammation, caused by
concussion as the horse brings his
foot to the earth. With a sound
frog and no calks they could never
occur.

A hoy is something liko a piece
of iron, which iu? its rough state
isn’t worth much, nor is it of very
much use; but tho more processes
it is put through the more valua
ble it becomes. A bar of iron
that is only worth $5 in its natu
ral state is worth $12 when it is
mode into horseshoes; and after
it goes through the different pro
cesses by which it is made into
tiecdles, its value is increased to
$350. Made into penknife blades
it would bo worth $3,000, and into
balance springs for watches $250-
000. Just think of that, boys, a
{ niece of iron that is comparative*
y worthies can be developed into
such valuable material!
But the iron lias to go through
a great deal of hammering anil
beating, and rolling and pounding,
and polishing; and if yon are to
become useful and educated men
you must go through a long
course of study and training. The
more time you spend in hard
study the hotter material you will
make. The iron does not have to
go through near the process to
make horseshoes as it does to
make tho delicate watch-springs,
bnt think how much less value
it is. Which would you rather
be, horseshoes or watch-springs?
It depends on yonraelevs. You
can become whichever you will.
This is your time of preparation
for manhood.
Don’t think that 1 would have
you settle down to real hard
study all tho time without any in
tervals of fun. Not a bit of it.
I like to sco boys have a good
time, and I should be very sorry
to have you grow old before your
time; but you have ample oppor
tunity for study and play, too,
and I don’t want you to neglect
tho former for tho sako of the lat
ter.—Christian at Work.
