I want to write the many readers of the Snquirsr a letter to day, based on the hard tiroes, and I want to give them my remedy. Many people are disposed to saddle these hard times on the wrong hone. Some blame the alliance, some the merchants, some Congress, others the "bulls and bears," others what they call the money ring, and still others lay the trouble to class legislation. Now, I be Ueve that aU these blames are correct to a certain extent, but there is still another that has hurt the people worse than all the others combined. That is what we call false pride. It haa broken more people than you would suppose. Iu fact I will tell you a big troth when I say that it has broken rp nearly all thai has ever been broken up. I am sixty yean old on the 9th day of next September, if I shoold live nnt.il that date, and I never knew a family in all this time that was proud that did not finally break. All went down to the grave as' poor as Lazarus, except the sores, and if Solomon had been as proud as some people that I know he wonld have died a poor man. But you will say that poor people are notproud, that they have nothing to be proud of. Ton are mistaken. They are all prouder than rich folks. To prove this, I will "He you to the negroes. -$hey are prouder of a mole than white Jttka are of a plantation. I know what lam talking about, for I have been along there.

I rode before, and my wife rode behind, and we thought ourselves somebody. One day my wife says to me, "Willie, let us buy a buggy."

The first year we failed, but the second year we succeeded in getting a second band bug" gy, and you oagh t to have seen us riding ia it.

K Savannah, G?v; February 2 - -David Porter, Deputy Collector ct Customs, at Savannah, was shot and killed by his 16 year-old son at 1 o'clock this morning at Porter's re id en ce. Porter went?home late under the influence of liquor, and being chided by his wife, struck her Her daughter interfered and then young Porter ran to a bureau, and, taking out a loaded revolver, fired at bis father. The father turned on his son and both fell on the floor together. In the struggle for the pistol young Porter shot twice again, the last shot penetrating his father's breast near the heart. He staggered to his feet and into the nest room, fell into a rocking; chair and died. The boy ran Into the street1 and called' a neighbor, saying that be had shot his father. He then summoned the family physician and after that walked to police headqnartere and surrendered. He did not know for some time that he had killed his father, as he left hia boom as soon as he fired the shot. In talking of the a fair in bis cell ha said: s "tfl have killed my father, that is if be dies from his wounds, I have it from his own lips that I did right. A few yean ago, speaking in my presence about a young man. killing hit. father in this city for beating his mother, my father, in reply to a remark that the young man must regret bis crime cot. tin tally, said: 'Never, He may regret the necessity, but never the deed.'" 1 The parricide was cool and collected in all he said. An inquest is being held to-day. The coroner's jury in the Porter in? quest rendered a verdict that Porter's death was the result of accidental shoot? ing, the pistol being discharged in the scuffle with the son. Loving Homes. Nothing appe&n to us so beautiful in human experience as the reciprocal af? fection of parents and children, especially after the latter have attained maturity, and, it may be, formed new relations in life. It has been our privilege to know auch, and as we have witnessed the out? pourings of love and happiness between these devoted and glowing hearts, we have felt that surely much of heaven might be enjoyed here if all families were equally attached. And would that every daughter knew what pure joy she might create in the parental bosom by a constant keeping alive of the spirit of filial devotion, and seizing frequent op? portunities to make it manifest in little acts of gentleness and love, notwith? standing the child may have become a parent. It is always the dear child, and never so dear as when it keeps op the childish confidence aod love of its earli? est yean. _Borne, in her da? s oi pride and pow? er, had a circus that would accommodate if a boy crawled undor the canvas it 159,000 people.

Snake Versus Spider, It is quite- a common thing among the soldiers in Arizona to pit tarantulas against each o the. and bet on the fighting powers of their favorites. This fact donbtless suggested to the clerks in H. H. Tammen's curiosity store in Denver the idea of getting up a fight between a large and lively tarantula and a rattle? snake. Before the fight began the odds wero ten to onein favor of the snake and there were few takers. The proprietor was not in at the time and the clerks had closed the store for the night, so there was not much probability of an inter? ruption. The big snake was driven into one end of his cage and a partition let down to keep him safe, so that the tar? antula could be introduced. The little sliding door at the other end, carefully protected by a closely-woven wire screen, was raised and the tarantula slipped into the compartment. Then the partition was pulled up and eager eyes peered through the glass sides of the cage to witness the result. The tarantula arose and bristled all over like a chesnut burr, the rattlesnake reared its head and thrust forth its forked tongue with the rapidity of lightning. Thus the two strange and deadly crea? tures remained for a moment gazing at each other. Suddenly there was heard the thrilling whirr of a snake's rattles and with the pliancy of a steel spring the snake threw himself into a coll with his head raised in the center and vibrating rapidly from side to side. The tarantula was as im? movable as if carved in stone. Suddenly, with a motion too swift for the oye to follow; the rattler struck, but he missed his mark, for the tarantula, with the speed of lightning, bounded into the air, and, descending on one of the serpent's coils,, .sunk, his fangs in to the flesh. The snake instantly began thrash? ing around the cage and dislodged his foe. There was now a tremulous motion visible in every limb of the tarantula, and it was evident that he was contemplating offensive measures. With the leap of a, .tiger he bounded upon his foe and once more sank his fangs into the body of the snake. This time it was in vain for the serpent to writhe and . flounder, for the tarantula clung to his enemy with the te? nacity of a bulldog. The spider was bruised and beaten, some of his legs were broken, bathe be Id on with desperate courage, and gradually the efforts of the rattler grew weaker, until at last, his coils relaxed, and, with only a faint vibration of his tail, he lay. stretched out upon the bot? tom of his eage dead.. The deadly ven? om of the tarantula had done its work. The fight lasted ten minutes, and was a most thrilling exhibition of ferocity and oonrage. The quickness of motion ex? hibited by the tarantula, was marvelous, and through it he avoided being struck by the serpent The dead serpent was evidence against the clerks, and they had to confess to the proprietor that they had introduced the tarantula to the serpent with a result which none of them bad anticipated. ? Skin Grafts. PPiladkh hi a, January .29.?After suffering for 260 days, Mrs. Mary Beilly, of Port Richmond, was discharged from-' the Episcopal hospital recently a perfect? ly weft woman, jj in the early part Of last May, while lighting a fire at her home, Mrs. Beilly was badly burned. Finally Dr. J. P. Tunis, who bad charge of her case, determined to try a process of skin grafting, Instead of the large grafts, therefore, Dr. Tunis used small specks of skin, which he carefully lifted on the point of a needle from the arm of a healthy person and then with ? sharp knife clipped off and immediately trans? ferred to the patient's wounds. He W33. greatly assisted in his work by a con va lescent female patient who willingly bared her arm to the knite to assist her -sister sufferer. Dr. Hazeltinej-, who-was then on doty ;at the hospital,salso allowed;, numeroua grafts to bo taken from his arm. The husband pf tUB^woman,-who.was unceas? ing in his attention toiils wffe, was also" a willing subject for the surgeon's scalpel. In all about 2,000grafts were taken, and the physicians were highly gratified to find that the minute particles of skin were adhering to the wonnd, thoreby forming healthy centres for a new growth-* Finally the wound became covered and Mrs. Beilly was as well as ever. She undoubtedEy owes her life to the skill of ths surgeon and to the careful nursing whdefa she received. ? There is only a century before us in which to prepare either to freeze to death or provide some kind of fuel, to take iho place of coal. This is the con? clusion of Gen. Isaac J. Wistar, president of the Philadelphia Academy of Sciences, who has been looking into the coal sup? ply of this country. Gen. Wistar paints a doleful picture of what posterity will be without coal, but he need not be half so anxious, before the coal beds are ex? hausted posterity will be keeping warm on preserved sunbeams, or something equally efficient. Posterity will not freeze. & ? That truth vteYs&anger than fiction was illustrated recently at Juno, Tenn. About twenty-five years ago a young man appeared in that community, claim? ing to be from East Tennessee, who said his name was Henry Armstrong and that he had left children back East. Arm? strong has lived there as a farm hand ever since and bore a good character. A few days ago he took the grip and died. When the neighbors began to prepare the body for the grave the dis? covery was made that Armstrong was not a man but a woman. Two physicians were called in and found Armstrong to be a well-developed female who had bore children early in life. She carried her secret twenty-five years, no one over sus? pecting her sex. ? Mr. John Bassard, aged seventy years, a highly respected citizen of Sum ter County, met with a horrible death a few days ago from being gored to death by a bull belonging to him. Mr. Bassard went to see Mr. J. K. McLeod on busi? ness and Mr. MoLeod not being at home he turned his ox into the lot, awaiting Mr. McLeod's return. When Mr McLeod returned and they had finished their business Mr. Bassard went into the lot to bridle his ox when the infuriated ani? mal rushed upon, his owner and catching him on his horns tossed him in the air about fifteen feet. He fell on the fence and rolled back into tho lot, when the bull gored him under the right arm, tear? ing into the lungs and liver, and break? ing all the ribs on that side. Mr. Jenk? ins, who was near by, promptly knock? ed the bull down with a piece.of wood. Mr. Bassard was taken into Mr. McLeod's bouse and everything was dono to re? lieve his suffering and to saye his life, but to no avail. A jury of inquest was empanneled by Justice J. H. McLeod, and the verdict rendered was in accord? ance with tho facts above stated. ? The following story Is from a recent issue of Fort Worth, Toxa3 Gazette: "A. J. Mercer, living near Burden, Kan., has a patch of corn which i?J the rarest overgrown. The patch is small, but tho corn is of a kind that has never been seen in this country before. Last spring Mercer opened a mound on his farm, and in it found a lot of corn, along with pro historic relics, showing that the corn had been put in there ages ago.. It was in a sealed jar, and about a peck In quantity. He gave away about half of it to bis neighbors and others who heard of it and wanted a few grains for a curiosity. When planting time came ho thought it would be a ^ood idea to plant some of it, and prepared a patch of ground near his house and planted about two quarts of the seed. It came up and thrived well under the cultivation given it. The ears came woll. It is now about harvested. The cars are about six inches long and grains were close together, standing up with sharp points. The grains are small, being about one-fourth the size of the ordinary grain of corn.' Mercer thinks this must undoubtedly bo the original corn of this country from which the present has sprung through long and high cultivation. "What is remarkable about it is that the mound from which it was taken has every evidence of being very old, for trees were growing on it that could not bo loss than 200 years old. The relics found witb the corn are similar to those found in the mounds of Illinois and Ohio, and this mound must have been coexistent with these, which are believed to be over 1,000 years old. Mercer has sent samples of his corn to friends in the East and to the government officials at Washington." - ? Nature never provides for man's wants in any direction?bodily, menially or spiritually, in such a form as that he can simply accept her gifts automatically, She puts all the mechanical powers at bis disposal, but he must make the lever. She gives him corn, but he must grind it. She elaborates coal, but he must dig for it. All the products of nature are perfect, bot he has everything to do to them be fore be can use them. So with truth ; it is perfect, infallible.. But he cannot use it as it stands. He must work, think, separate, dissolve, absorb, digest; and most of-these he must do for himself and within himself.
