The unusual proceedings so impressed the ranchman that he felt that something was wrong. Could it be that Galena George?as the- miner and owner of the horse was called?had- met with some mishap? Maybe he had been mnrdered In, his lonely cabin by "rustlers," or had accidentally fallen into the shaft of his mine w itho u t means of escape. The strange conduct of the horse indi? cated that something unusual had happened, and that was enough to prompt the ranchman to speedy action. Calling one of his assistants, the men quickly saddled two of the best horses on the place:- and securing their revolvers to guard against danger, and providing some medicines'and stimulants to use in case of emergency, they* rode rapidly away' in the direction of. Galena George'a cab. in. ? ^.George's horse observing this movement manifested great pleasure, and started on ja gallop towards his home.

One' evening about two months ago, while-Charles Dickens, Jr., wss giving a reidingyjin the First Congregational" Chnrch^pf San Francisco; a tall, finely , for med . lady, with patrician features and a dignified gait, entered by tbe left door and-walked up the aisle.. She was ac-, "companied by her husband, whose mili? tary bearing ; added i effect' to tbe aristo-' I cratic appearance of bis better hal f. , v;Cnrireaching-.a5seat yards from >;&te?^ her; dress as shfc attempted to sit down grace* ^nB^^But^erif?ot canghtin th"eicarpet,-; ?and^he stumbled and^ell jhe?vily 'onthe ? jsj5alj;;w Asshe^did soalBj.nffled report "was heard,1 and tbe lady was observed to col-. ! laspe with a lurch." Her face turned deathly pale, and then a carmiue hue,, and she sprang to Her feet in great Con? s' fU8rbn, '/?;!?; No one dreamed that this story would be the subject'of a civil suit, but unhap pily this^has been the result,. The ;Iady broughVsuitagainstherdreKm?ter.who bad manufactured; the' unfortu?ate .bus ? tiefend the case-was brought into court laBtweek. In the trial-the dreKsmaker stated that i her fair customer had ordered ? her to : make a dress (with all the additions thereto appertaining) which should be a perfect fit and entirely satisfactory, to the wearer. Upon cross-examination the ? witness swore that to the best of her ? ^dwledgeiand^belief h*er customer -bad varied in size from day to day, and aev eral boa ties" bad to" be "especially manu? factured before one could be found that was of the proper size. At last the dress was finished; and the purchaser agreed, on behalf of the second part of the con? tract, not to. sit -down suddenly, and in all respects to observe the cautions set forth by the unfortunate dressmaker. This,.as it appeared from the evidence, she had neglected to do, and with the disastrous result as above chronicled.' ... ' The rubber .bustle had collapsed, to the injury and disgrace of the plaintiff. The judge, in giving his decision on the merito- of- the- case, spoke as follows;:? "This is a most peculiar can." I have read, of bustles being made Of horse hair, muslin, newspapers^ pilbws, bird cages, and tven -quilts. I have hoard alarm clocks striking the hour within the folds a lady's dress. Smuggled cigars, jewelry and brandy have also been brought to light, but I never heard before of an air-, tight bustle exploding in church, and then being made the subject of a civil suit. Not being married yet, tbe situa tion is somewhat perplexing to me; but still, looking at the -case from a legal standpoint, I think we can adjust matters satisfactorily. Were a non explosive bustle used this' suit might never have been brought." His Honor then deducted $8 50 from the dressmaker's bill,, as the defendant "set up a claim for damages for the explo? sion trouble. He then rendered judg? ment in favor of the plaintiff for $1150. The ?egro Problem.. . Atlakta, Dec. 14.?The " Georgia Legislature was yesterday treated to a genuine surprise. In response to a joint resolution, the Hon. j. L. M. Curry, late minister to Spain, addressed the Legis? lature on education.. He was introduced by President Du Bignm. The part of his speech which attracted so much attention was as follows: "I want to say to you, in perfecttrank ness, that the man who thinks the negro problem has been settled is either a fanatic or a fool. Tstand aghast at the problem. I don't believe civilization ever encountered one of greater magni? tude. It casts a dark shadow over your churches, your government of the future. : It is a great problem which will tax your.] energies. Georgia was once Shermaniz ed. Georgia with the South Africanized, as it may be, would be a thousand times worse than Sbermanized. But you may make the outlook as black as possible, and yet say that ignorance and poverty are not remedies for tbe situation. Bet? ter have them cultivated, better have 'them intelligent preachers, intelligent industry, improved homes. Which is better, to brutalize and pauperize, or humanize, civilize and Christianize ? I leave it to you to settle the problem. "There are people who say this ought to be a white man's Government. I am not prepared to contest that proposition, but I beg you to remember that tbe negroes, and I am glad of it, have friends at tbe North who are befriending tbem. Bnt they are not coming to your relief. You must help yourselves if you are helped at all. I know tbat the indica tionsare prophetic of a race conflict. God save, us from it. I know that dark shadows of the future ore flung across our pathway. It is idle to shut your eyes. It is better to meet such dangers half way, even though they come no further. Now, there is notbingjocr te in a white skin unless behind tbat skin lie tbe hereditary experiences of centuries of good government. I now tbat tbe negro of Africa has no invention, no discovery, no law, no literature, no government, no civilization. Why? "If you put the Caucasian under the same environment, and keep him there ten or twenty centuries, there will be no, !. invention, no science, nor diECo\ery, nor I history) nor civilisation among Os?cft- < sians. Your ancestors and mine a few years ago were cannibals and pagans. Tbey have become what they are, not by virtue of white skin, but by improving government and good laws. You let the negro children get an education where yours do not, let the negro be superior to you in culture and property, and you will have a black man's government Inprovement, cultivation, education is the secret, the condition and guarantee of race supremacy. I will astonish you, perhaps,- by saying tbat if the negro develops and becomes in culture, proper? ty and civilization superior to the white man, the negro onght to rule. Yon see to it that he does not become so. The responsibility is with you."?New York YSun. - _ Take Your Hands out of Yonr Pockets, Young Man, . .? To begin with it does not look well ..when a young man crooks his arms.aud thrusts his hands into his pockets; mak? ing a figure 8 of himself, and then stands np ?gaioBt the sunay side of the house.

The bridegroom was a I man of wealth, and before be presented himself before tbe bridal altar, he placed a one^ bundrejd^ dollar greenback. in .Jus? vest^ pockVt to,vgive the parson for 'the marriage-fee, and did pay it to him, as he supposed. While crossing the ocean/ be discover- ? l ed , greatly to his astonishment, the bill in the pocket where: he placed it, and could account for its presence there only, on the theory that he must have another bill of a different denomination, which; be bad donated to the clergyman by mistake. /. I On getting back to this country, he de? termined to solve the mystery and"waited upon the reverend gentleman, who did not recognize him, and inquired if, on a certain date, he did not marry a certain I conple. The clergyman remembered, the' occasion perfectly. "I know I am about to ask an imperti? nent question,'' said tbe visitor, "but I should like to be informed 'what fee you received for performing the ceremony?" I The clergyman recognized the man as the. one he married, and said that he would, of course, gratify him since he was so anxious to know. . "I received,"- he then went on to say, "a very small quaa ?tity-of fioe .chewing tobacco, folded in a very'small piece of paper." 5k^& The only thing remaining to be done was to apologize for the curious blunder, laugh heartily, and make the one hundred. dollar deposit good. - v Worth Remembering. ?I. For a sore throat cut slices of fat, bone less bacon, pepper thickly, and tie around the throat with.a flannel cloth.

At the first sign of a runaround lake a cup of wood ashes, put in a pan with a quart.of cold water, put the pan on the stove, put your finger in tbe pan, keep it there until tbe water begins to boil, or as long as it can be borne. Be peat once or twice if necessary. I ?.- , ?< i ?-r Evil Speaking. ! Is it a part, I wonder, of tbe fruit of that "forbidden tree which brought death into the world, and all our woe, that so many of ub are too ready to say of others tbe thing which is unkind, to attribute the wrong motive to our fellow beings, to* judge unfairly ? It is not, in troth, ore of its worst effects, since no one can think of Eden, peace and beauty, in a world where it is possible for one person to speak with anything but gentleness and' sincerity of a neighbor? "Charity think] eth no evil'" says the best of books, linking tbe sweet elaboration in a golden chain, on which several descriptions of charity or love are strung like gems which glitter and flash at every turn. "A lie that is halt truth, is ever the worst of lies," is the conclusion of a poet who sees deeply in the hearts of things. Bo we remember tbia when we permit in ourselves tbe license to speak doubting ly of some friend whose good fame should be a sacred trust; when we listen to the inuendo, or fail to resent the slur cast upc n tbe character of tbe absent; when we happen to know something concerning an acquaintance, which our inner consciousness tell us would be better left to silence than whispered in a confiden? tial corner, thence presently to be bruited on the bouse tops? Should there not -be cultivated in every child a delicate sense of honor, which should act as a guard on the door of the lips, barring the way for censorous, evil or untrue speech ? "By thy words thou shalt be justified. By thy words?condemned " Would not society be better, our borne 'life happier, our friendships stronger, our I own souls nobler, if we were, God help ing, determined hereafter to speak in kindness only of the absent, therefore tbe defenceless? And in cases where such speech is unfortunately impossible, it is not a Christian duty to bear.in mind that silence is golden ??Margaret E. Sang ster.. : . ... . ? i .

It is surprising bow everybody rushes at a fainting person and strives to raise him op, and especially to keep bis head erect. There must be an instinctive apprehension that if a person seized with fainting or other fit, fall into the recum? bent position death is more imminent. I must have driven a mile to-day while a lady fainting was held upright. I found her pulseless, white, apparently dying, and I believe that -if i had delayed ten minutes longer ehe would really have died. I laid her head down on a lower level than her . body, and: immediately color returned to her lips and cheeks, and'she became conscious.- To the ex? cited group of friends I said: Always remember this fact?namely r Fainting is caused by a want of blood in the brain; ?the heart ceases to act with sufficient force to send-the usual amount of blood to the 'brain, -and hence the person loses con? sciousness because the function of the brain ceases. Restore the blood to the brain and instantly the person recovers. -No^', though the blood is propelled to all 'parts of the body%by: the action of the heart, yet it is still Under tbs influence of the laws of gravitation. In tb? erect position the blood ascends to the head againBt gravitation, and the supply to the brain is diminished, as compared with the recumbent position, the heart's pulsation being equal. If, then, yon place a person "sitting, whose heart has nearly ceased to beat, nis brain will fail to receive blood, while if you lay him down, with the head lower than the heart, blood will run into the brain by the, mere force of gravity; and, in fainitng.'in sufficient quantity to restore consciousness. Indeed; nature teaches us how to manage the fainting persons, for they always fall, akd fr ? quently are . at once) restored by the raj ?umbant" position iftto which they are thrown.?Medical Journal, ?

Af? ter the latter date it will be too late to get the change made for the said year 1889* And another important matter in making or taking returns, is where the Tax Payer owns land to insert the Post Office as their place of residence, and where they own no real property to mention the owner's land that tbey live on as being their place of residente, which assists the Tax Payer as well as the County Treasurer in making the collection, and save costs and pcnaltiss, too. Every male citizen, between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years, on the first day of January, 1889, except those incapable of earning a support, from being maimed, or from other causes, shall be deemed taxable polls. Tax Payers return what they own on the first day of. January, 1889. All returns that are made after the twen? tieth day of February next, have to be placed on the Additional List, and fifty per cent penalty added thereto, unless pre? vented by sickness during the time of list? ing, or out of the County at the time. Not knowing the time of listing is no ex? cuse, and is the reason that the landowner has to get two receipts when he makes his return - after the twentieth of February each year. Each landowner famishes the names on the back of their Tax Beturns of all par? ties living on their land who are liable for taxes, and in comparing these names with (he Tax Duplicate, find a good many who have forgot or neglected to make their re? turns for 1387 and 1888, and we hope every one who is liable for the said vears 1887 and 1888 will attend to it at once. After the 15th of Dicdmber it soon falls into the Sherifl'a bands, and of course the costs aud penalties have to be added, which is a pretty smart, item. .. THOMAS J.
