Removal.—
I now occupy the old stand of
R. L. Daughtry. The in
creased space gives me an
opportunity to display the
many goods I have hereto

of room to store away.
For the convenience of
the people of Brunswick, I
have purchased an electric
clock, connected by wire
with the Naval Observatory
at Washington. Every day
at i i o'clock a. m., standard,
1 want all who carry watches
to call at my store and get
Washington time.
This clock is daily cor

1 IB9OJ LUDDEN I BATES,
FREMONT’S CARAVAN PROJECT.
Across the American Desert BeAr«- tho
Iron Track Was Thought <m
Mrs. M. A. Bingham, widow of the
late Gen. Bingham, met Gen. John C.
i Frem ut in Lansas City in the days
I before tin war. and has many incidents
to relate of tho Pathfinder. One of
the most interesting refers to the meet
ing of Senator Benton and Gen. Fre
mont in this city forty years ago to
discuss Ute establishment of a caravan
route to California.
“I met Gen. Fremont along in the
fifties,” remarked Mrs. Bingham. ‘‘He
came here and stopped several days at
the famous Gillis house. I remember
taking dinner with him. He was re
garded as a brave, adventurous, daring
spirit. We looked upon him very much
as people of today look upon Stanley.
At the time Gen. Fremont was in Kan
sas City planning for a caravan to travel
across the great American desert. His
right hand man bi this project was
Lieut. Beale, a civil engineer, educated
at West Point. The father-in-law of
Gen. Fremont, Senator Benton, was
also here, and regarded the caravan.,
srflieme withfavor. They proposed to im
port camels from Africa and use them in
transporting goods overland along the
route known as the Santa Fe trail. The
camels were imported at a considerable
expense, but the trip was found im
practicable. The camels could not
stand the climate. It was proposed to
winter them in Texas or Southern Cali
fornia, but the project fell through,
and the promoters of the scheme lost
considerable money.
“I shall never forget,” continued
Mrs. Bingham, “how one bright sunny
morning Gen. FremonJ rode away from
Kansas City on his way to California,
looking every inch a soldier in his
handsome uniform and military trap
pings. Reining his steed to one side, he
said lauglungly to me; ‘When I come
back, get your saddle ready and I will
give you a ride on one of my camels.’
I never had the privilege of taking that
ride. Gen. Fremont soon forgot the
camel scheme, and went off to new
fields. The camel idea seemed perfect
ly feasible and practicable, but the idea
of a Pacific railroad seemed preposter
ous. While discussing tllfe caravan pro
ject Senator Benton said to me: ‘You
are young, but you will live to see the
iron cars start from Kansas City and
cross the mountains to the Pacific slope.
I am old. I shall never live to see it.
But I have confidence in the country,
and I believe in the future of the rail
road. This little town of 300 inhab
itants will yet become one of the great
cities of the world.’
"j could not comprehend such a
project. < was surprised at its magni
tude. Visions of my school days of
tlie great American desert, second only
to Sahara in size, the geographies said,
came flitting through my brain, and I
remarked: .
“ ‘But, senator, how about the great
American desert ( How can they ever
cross it?’
“ ‘That is nothing,’ he replied.
Standing in the moonlight on the por
tico of the famous old Gillis house,
impressive and majestic in manner, the
aged senator has seemed to me ever
since a prophet. The caravan, which
seemed so plausible, a failure—tiie Pa
cific road, which seemed so far away, a
success. Who can tell what to expect?”
—Kansas City Times.
The “Potato Cure.”
The removal of foreign bodies from
the stomach by the so called potato
cure consists in requiring the patient to
eat large quantities of potatoes, which
have the effect of proportionately dilat
ing the whole intestinal canal, so that
the foreign body is enveloped and can
not cling tonny part during its passage.
Dr. Salzer showed at the clinic of Pro
fessor Billroth several foreign bodies
which in this way had been removed —
one of these being a weight of five and
a half drams, wliich had been swal
lowed by a chiltT; the second a set of
artificial teeth upward of five centi
meters long and tliree centimeters
broad, and the tliird was a needle.
Many gastrotomies could be obviated
by this method in the case of swallowed
foreign bodies.—Exchange.
Diplomacy.
“Papa,” said the young mother, “I’ve
decided on a name for baby; we will
call her Imogen.”
Papa was lost in thought for a few
minutes; he did not like the name, but
if he opposed it his wife would have
her own way.
“That’s nice,” said he •presently.
“My first sweetheart was named Imo
gen, and she will take it as a.compli
ment.”
“We will call her Mary, after my
mother,” was tho stern reply.—-Har
per’s Bazar.
The Dor in Humane Literature.
Every now and then we get a letter
from one of those unfortunate people
who would bo glad to have all the dogs
exterminated. To such we would say, :
you might as well attempt to strike out t
tho gospel of St. John from the New I
Testament as the songs, stories and
pictures of the dog from our humane
literature. The world has settled that
matter long ago, and through the ages
the dog will occupy a high place hi the
regard and affection of millions of hu
man beings.—Our Dumb Animals.
Misleading Street Car Signs.
A victim of the ingenious system of
misdirection by signs upon tho street
cars has related to mo lus adventures i
in making an economical transit across
tlie dty. His itinerary consisted of a
trip to the New York and New England
railroad station, where he was to pick
up a gripsack and umbrella left at tlie
parcel room in tlie morning, and thence
to take a train out of town on the
Eastern railroad. This was to be done
at tlie small cost of ten cents, by avail- >
ing himself ot the admirable facilities
in the way of street car transportation.
He tells me that lie first boarded a cut
on wliich the name of tlie New Eng
hind railroad station was prominently
’ displayed, and sat in peaceful cunfi
deuce until he found himself in the
lieighlx>rli<sxi of the Maverick btuik,
I when u question put to the conductor
drew out the information that me route
named on the sign board of the car
woidd not l>e followed until “some
time in the fall.”
He took a heiidio arid thus made Ilia
first station. Securing Ills gripsack he
thought himself fortunate in finding a
ear just passing whose signs told that it
was on its-i.ay to the “Eastern depot.”
When some point in the South Cove
was reached he learned from the con
ductor, on inquiry, that if he should
get out and walk to the next block he
would find a car going in the opposite i
direction which would take him to his
destination. lie then hired another
herdie and managed to catch his train.
—Boston Post.
Paid Off in His Own Coin.
A remarkable case of “diamond cut
diamond” occurred in Boston recently,
not far from the Providence railroad
station. A druggist had fitted up a
neat corner store and had established
at once a fine trade. One day another
druggist entered his store and said: “1
want to buy you out. How much will
you take!” “Ido not want to sell,’ ,
jwas the reply. “I expected that an
swer,” said the encroaching person,
“and I am prepared for it. Now, it
you don’t sell out to me I will open a
drug store in opposition on the oppo
site corner. How much will you take?’’
The druggist, offended at this species
of browbeating, said he would sleep on
it and report the next morning. At
the appointed hour the aspirant was
in the store and a large price was named.
The bargain was bound. The druggist
who had been thus ousted from a cor
ner which he had fitted up with a view
to years of peace and profit sought the
owners of the opposite corner which
had been held out to him as a threat,
secured from them a long lease, worked
night and day, and now has a drug
store in which any community might
take satisfaction and repose confidence.
What is more, lie is doing a .better busi
ness than he did in the former locality.
—Boston Saturday Gazette.
A la Mother GuoNe.
The Nawab Vicar ul Omrah recently
tendered a breakfast at his magnificent
new palace near Hyderabad to the En
glish viceroy of India and his staff.
Whether he borrowed an idea from
Mother Goose or his imagination was
inspired by the same muse that inspired
her we cannot know, but certainly ap
preciation is due him for making “a
true story” of that fascinating rhyme
about the “four and twenty blackbirds
baked in a pie.” It all happened at
his breakfast.
“Large, but not suspiciously large,
cakes were handed around,” writes one
of the guests. “As they were opened a
little amaduvad, or wax bill, flew chirp
ing out of each and alighted on the
Howers and shrubs with which the ta
ble was covered or flew about the room.
“There were sixty guests, so that
when the pies were opened no less than
sixty birds began to sing.”
Changes in the “Big Dipper.**
One of t’ l most notable examples of .
the constant and yet almost imper
ceptible changes taking place in the
heavens is to be found in the motion of
the seven bright stars collectively
known as the big dipper. Huggins,
the noted astronomer,, is now engaged
in proving that five of these stars are
moving in the same direction, wliile
file other two are moving in a direction
directly opposite. Prof. Fliuuuiarion
has reduced Huggins’ calculations to a
system, arranging them upon charts.
These ingeniously constructed heavenly
outlines show that 100,000 years ago
the “Dipper” stars were arranged in
the outline of a large and irregular
shaped cross; and that 100,000 years
iience they will have assumed the form
of an elongated diamond, stretching
over three or four times the extent of
sky now occupied.—St. Louis Republic.

Maj. Ford H. Rogers tells an amus
ing anecdote of the late Gen. Clinton
B. Fisk. The general was addressing a
Sunday school convention. One of the
speakers had reminded the children
that it was Washington’s birthday.
“Children,” said Gen. Fisk, “you all
know that Washington was a general.
Perhaps you know that I am also a
general. Now, can any one tell what
was the difference between Gen. Wash
ington and myself?”
“I know, sir,” piped a small boy in
the back part of the room.
“Well, what was the difference?”
said Gen. Fisk, smiling at the lad’s ea
gerness.
“George Wasliington couldn't tell a
lie, sir,” cried the boy in exultant tones.
Screams of laughter followed, in which
the general joined as heartily as the
rest. —Detroit News.
The Art of Fast Walking.
Persons who have never been trained
to walk fast generally quicken their
gait by bending forward and lengthen
ing the stride, at the same time bend
i ing the knees very much at each step.
! It is pretty safe to say that no one can
' possibly adopt this style and keep a
fair walk at a faster gait than six miles
an hour. The fast walker must keep
himself erect, liis shoulders back and
chest thrown out. He must put down
liis forward foot and heel first, and
with the leg straight. He must hike
strides so quick that they look short.
He must, if he expects to get a good
stride, work his hips considerably, over- .
coming the sidewise tendency of the
hip movement by a compensatory
! swinging of the arms. The length of
stride in fast walking is astonishing to
those who look at it. —Harper’s Weekly.

In commenting on the changeof baae of Murat
Hal h ad, the famous editor of t>ic Cincinnati
"taudard I iduu, an afternoon paper, the Times- [
Star n inarks that “the superior ircrits of an J|
evening paper when compared with those of a
morning issue have long been i.cknowledged. , B
The one is a histore of to-day, the other a history
of yesterday; the one is current, the other is a i
back number. The cumber of triumphs of the
evening paper is legion. For the issue that
comes out witii the crowing of the cock the busi- J
ness man has no time save that which he steals
as he bolts his breakfast and gulps down his cos- " j
fee. lie glances at headlines, notices latest quota- |
lion of the prices of the products he has to sell
and then abruptly exchanges the paper for his
hat Fora critical reading of the news he de- :
• pends upon the hours following his (> o’clock •
meal. Then, with his slippers on and his feet
mounting the back of a chair or the mantel, he
settles himself for double digesting :
his supper and the day’s history. Nothing In the
evening papers escapes the reader’s eye; tele
graph, local, editorial, miscellany and advertise
ments are devoured. It is not a lunch of news,
but a veritable banquet. The morning paper is
only nibbled at, the evening paper la devoured. i
The advertiser is awakening tj this expensive •
fact. The man who has been pilloried in the
