"The good old summer time" ar rived promptly with the 1st of July. Being a trifle late it is naturally try ing to wgke up for lost time, and ie succeeding remarkably well. King Edward has been saying some very nice things to the jolly American tars in the European squadron, for which the tars gave his majesty a lusty three and a tiger, Isn't it about time to discover some Civilized way to celebrate the Fourth? Of course, giant crackers and toy pis tols mean business for the undertak ers, but there are other things to be considered once in a while. Mrs. Eliza Boardman .Burnz, who r. died in Pennsylvania recently at the r advanced age of eighty, was general- ~ ly known as the "mnother of women g stenographers," and as such, will e doubtless long be held in grateful re- t membrance by the yearly increasing s army of wage-earning women.

A Alichigan paper says that in Ohillicothe they are telling a good story on a young man who holds a humble position in a printing offico, says the Kansas City Star. The young man is very fond of the daugh ter of a minist6r, but his devotion to her is comparatively new. The other Sunday he wont to church to hear the father of his inamorata preach and un fortunately set down where every body could see him. The text was: "My daughter is grievously tormented with a devil." The trouble in Evansville, Ind., in which a mob attempted to take a ne gro prisoner from a militia company; and were soundly trounced for their trouble, only emphasizes the necessity of having the military force of the state at all time in condition to meet any emergency that may arise. Cap tain Blum, the commander of the local company, seems to have been entirely equal to the emergency, and as 'a result a dozen of the mob are under the ground and fifteen or twenty are nursing their wounds. We applaud the sentiment of the South Bend (Ind.) Times when it Btates that one of the most successful businessmen-of Tiis country says he alwafs made it a point to sell any propertv h ou iron clad rule can be applied to nuoney-prod ucing deals and transac bions. A cool head, a good brain and perseverence are all that is needed. Steamship companies have numer :>us agents scattered over Euro~pe whoso business it is to drum up im migrants to this country.

Colonel E~d ward E.

It is aTn mentable fact that in a majority of in ses when a mob becomes ugly the it vil authorities become timid and sa eir eyesight is suddenly impaired. many eases they openly side with e lawless element. It is a shame id disgrace to our country that such rharlty exists in the greatest of all Pm tions, and the only way in which it lam n be checked is by promptly callin~ieI on the state troops to suppress all 2 ch dlemonstrations In their incipi- j cy.

Walker Mauldin was shot 6a dIled, at a house in which Lethia mud Came Aiken, two notoriously owd women, were living, from a gun ihot fired by one M. B. Moore, near )alton,'postoffice, in Pickons county. From the best information obtain ible at the inquest on Tuesday, con. lucted by Coroner D. F. Parsons, the Ividence shows that Moore had left Ais home-quit his wifo-and bad Laken up with tho Aiken women. On ;he night of the homicido some five )r six citizons of that community, at ,he request of Mrs. Moore, that they alk to her husband and get him to ry and do bettor, had met at the chool house near the scono of the dilling and had gone to the house of ,he Aiken's and asked for Moore. An inintelligiblo answer was returned hen by one of the women, and im nodiately a doub~le barrel gun was Ired, both loads of shot taking effect n the body of Mauldin, some of the ihot piercing his liver, lungs and ieart. He fell, arose, walked about ivo or six stops, s'aid "boys, I am killed," fell again and was dead whon Iiis friends reached his side. A pair of shoes, hat and violin, found in the house was identified ae Moore's; as was also a sack of flour which J. S. Bowen had let him have that evening. It seems Moore ap prehended trouble, for; from the state ment of the Aiken women, he was 'estless . and kept listening and re. marked to them, "Liston; hear them .oming." These women testify that they iever saw no gun and that the shot Yas fired from the side of the house. Right now, it is only circutr stantial widence that Moore snot. No posi. tive testimony was taken that any one law. He -was brought to jail Tuesday norning. The Aiken women was odged in jail that evening on the iharges of being accessories and reeping a nuisance.
