a number of friends of the bereaved

Wo are in receipt of another comma-J
mention relative to the Sam Cook mat

is, in substance, similar to the one in
last issue from Mr. Bradley; therefore,
there is nothing to demand its publica

can now aet as jury.
Last Sunday Miss Allie Brock was at

The Jail at Fort Payne, Ala., wa
burned to the ground early last Sunday
morning. In the excitement Sheriff
Franklin lost near all his house-hold
effects, not getting them removed far
enough from the burning ; what were
not consumed were badly scorched.
There were eight prisoners in jail, the
release of whom is stated to have been
cause of the negligence whereby the
Sherifl'lost his honse-holdeffects. The
fire originated by some of the prisoners
atempting to effect their escape by hurtl
ing a window-sill. Tho offence is a
crime that will about break tho culprits’
necks.
Now, we shall not cal! it a prayer
mooting, nor, as wo have often heard it
called, is it a eourting-mecting. It is
not the latter, because a large majority
of tho boys gather as near as possible
one scat, and—mostly giggle and
laugh. Tho girls, wo are glad to say.
are never guilty of such silliness. But
wc are so extremely partial towards
girls that they never wound our sense
of propriety. Some of our most inti
mate acquaintances and school-mates
may not believe this, but not one doubt
of its truth lingers in our mind. To
complete the subject, and to make an
honest and full confession, it has always
been an amazing mystery to ns, how St.
Peter could have the heart and courage
to close the portal of heaven against
one of those fair, beautiful, and inno
cent beings. Though it may bo that
some of them will have to account foi
the poor worshpful spirit ( not toward
the girls ) of some of the boys who at
tend prayer-meeting. Now our prayer
meeting does uot denote the pulse of
the religious spirit and interest of our
town, iorour exemplar. 1 h: Rians and
consistent professors don’t attend. Some
one please toil what we go there for.
DEPRESSIONS
Gathorod from Conversations and
Observations on the Streets.
[r.Y A GTUt. IN TOWN.]
The first slight impressions of tho heart.,
Thufwords are powerless to express,
And leave them still unsaid in part,
Or say them in too great excess.
—Anonymous.
Boys who expect to set the world on
tire will never do it by smoking cigars
and cigaretts, but a number of our
town boys seem to think so They are
simply burning out their energies.
Site made a sneering remark about
your dress and manners! Her taste,
then, was at heavy discount, and her
soul very shallow. ‘ Only pity her in her
weakness, and you show the truest type
oi a noble and dignified lady.
How apparent the difference between
now and when the saloon was here. It
is true, the town is often not “so live
ly,” but how preferable to the enter
tainment and amusement given by the
over free customers of the saloon.
It is those who in early youth realize
their inadequacy to the duties of active
life, who succeed. Boys who feel them
selves capable of assuming any respon
sibility, or prepared to meet any emer
gency, are, tho ones who fail iu the bat
tles of life.
—o—
“ Wanted a boy to work—often nec
essarily hard work; he ran;, give his
attention and time uuilivi led to the
work required to be done.” Don’t you
suppose that the boys that would* be
caught by such an advertisement as this
are scarce now?
When will another wedding occur in
town? This question is not raised by
anything favorably indicating the oc
currence of such an event soon ; there is
■a dearth of signs now; only, there is
a young couple seemingly very happy in
each others company.
Don’t get educated to quick. It was
a custom with our forefathers to serve
many years as apprentice at any trado
or profession before entering upon it on
their own responsibility. Experience
will teach you that it was good custom,
and too much discarded now

Why are not our church houses re?
paired and repainted? Is it solely be
cause there is a lack of money? No
question but that this is too true, but
a Hindoo would not place and worship
one. of Ids wooden idols m a temple in
the condition, especially one, of Tren
ton’s church houses, it is not pleasant
to refer to this, but there must be some
stirring done.
“Don’t use profane language,” you
have been enjoined time and again. Lit
boys often think that the use of such
language is manly and adds greatly to
their importance. If their minds could
only bo impressed as to the true charac
ter of those whom they amuse with such
follies, if they were only conscious that
it is tho manifestation of a cowardly
spirit in those who by taunts impel
them on deeper into such a sin, surely
the innocent spirit of their mind would
assert its loyalty to the divine ordinance
Yon let your boy'or girl gooff on a
visit or pleasure trip. Of course they go
on the ears. You give them a little ex
tra change—spedding money. Do you
notice some of the articles they pur
chase with that money? The relish for
he dime or quarter-dollar novel is too
great to resist purchasing one. How
often we hear the boys and girls discuss
ing the merits of one these books. You
know they soon lose all interest in pure
and wholesome reading matter. A lit
tle Prohibition doctrine may be adopted
on this point.

What Truo Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Bosches s
German Syrup within a few years has
astonished the world. Without doubt it
is the safest and best remedy ever dis
covered for the speedy and elfecaial cure
of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung
troubles. It. acts on an entirely different
principle from the usual prescriptions
given by physicians, as it does not dry
up a Cough and leave the disease still
in Lho system, but on tho contrary re
moves the cause of the trouble, heais the
parts affected and leaves them in a pure
ly healthy condition. A bottle kept iu the
house for use when the diseaso makes its
appearance, will save doctor’s bills and a
long spell of serious illness. A trial will
convince you of these facts. It is posi
tively sold by all druggists and general
dealers in tho land. Price 7. r 'o, largo bo:

In this issue in another column,
Prof. IT, I), Wood lias announ-'- n -I an
outline of the system and terms under
which tho Normal Institute will bo
conducted. His associates will bo an
nounced in next issue.
Prof Wood will bo hero with his
family in the course of ton days—in
time to locate and open school.
So far we have every evidence that
Prof. Wood as principal is more than
interested in an institution of learning
ot the first grade. Fully competent
and equipped tor such a work, hav
ing every advantage in location and
school buildings and school furniture,
it only devolves upon, tho citizens to
lend their efforts freely in that direc
tion.
The faculty, under whoso manage
ment the institution was first organ
ized, held the highest confidence of
the patrons, And here is the primary
element of the'success of such an insti
tution. Every patron can rest assur
ed that Prof, Wood will use his ut
most indeavor to prove tho faculty
worthy i t al confidence reposed in it,
and himself competent to fill every
trust and duty devolving upon him as
principal.

Saturday night the sheriff received
a telegram from Rising Fawn asking
if one Spradling was wanted in tins
county. It seems that Spradling
went to Rising Fawn with an ox
which he sold, and with the proceeds
went on a spree during which ho told
that there was a warrant out for him
in Deli alb. lie was arrested and an
’investigation proved that an indict
ment had been preferred against him
in this county for selling whiskey, and
the sheriff went after him and brought
him back to jail. There are, also,
grave doubts about his title to tho ox
which lie sold, as he began by ask big
thirty dollars for it, hut finally
