An amateur journalist at Elkhart, Ind., announces that his paper "is to restore to the public its wonted grandeur and prosperity." In the meantime he will receive subscriptions at 50 cents a year. A 7-year-ohl boy, in Harrisburg, Pa., while "playing circus," a few days ago, stood upon his head 80 long, that he was attacked with brain fever, and died in a few hours. Seems like his brains were

About a thousand million dollars of our national debt have been paid since the war ended. France has now nearly treble our debt, and
Great Britain more than double. Their Postmaster is down with the
Pullman Palace Car Company, is about forty-seven yean of age, and is said to have accumulated a fortune of from fifteen to twenty millions of dollars, chiefly in that organization. A few years ago he bought about three thousand acres of land some sixteen miles from Chicago, at a cost of about one million dollars, and there commenced a city bearing his name. He has erected vast shops for making cars, and employs from five to six thousand workers in iron, wood, glass, painters, upholsters, etc. The city is laid out, graded, sewered, etc., in the most perfect manner, and the public buildings, churches, freeschool houses, and a ooe-bundred-thousand-dollar hotel, are models. A prominent feature is the admirable and tasteful style of dwelling built for the workmen. Mr. Pullman bas a palatial residence in Chi
cago, and line summer places at
Long Branca and on the St. Lawrence. An old farmer says that hickory cut in July or August vll not become worm-eaten, and that oak, chestnut, walnut or other timber cut from the middle of July to the last ot August will last twice as long as when cut in winter.
There seems to be a degree of
compensation in all experience. "1
cave no tear of the future." said an
amicted man, "because I have the
rheumatism all the time, and I really mnst be where it is warm." Boston Herald: There may, in individual cases, be risk in vaccination, but the infrequeney of serious results among the thousand's
daily inoculated would seem to indicate that there is greater danger
in choking to death at dinner than
of receiving barm from this single
preventive ot small-pox.
The inconvenience of having
the small pox about has been forci
bly made manifest to the people of
the Pennsylvania town of Grata
THE DOUGHTY DRUMMER.
Even Spain has bigger debt than
that which remains of ours our
country's, we mean. The Progress would -like to get in debt a thousand millions, but can't. The celebration of Daniel Webster's hundredth birthday was made the occasion, at Franklin, N. H., of proving his church connec-
tou. An original register was ex
hibited, in which his membership in a Congregational church was recorded on Sept. 13, 1807. This will be of great advantage to Daniel in case a draft should be ordered.
The fashion in men's hats changes for more often in England, France, and America, than in other countries. The sombrero worn in Don Quixote's time is in fashion in Spain to-day. The fashion in coontry printer's hats never changes they usually wear their old hat or go bareheaded. A second advent preacher made converts of a congregation of United Brethren, excepting two members only, at Isabelli, Midi. One f the two who held out against the movement was the pastor, and liis office was given to the new man, which proves that that theology is right which has might on iis aide;
The practice is common among the engravers aud watchmakers of Germany of harden ing their tools ta sealing wax. The tool is heated to whiteness and plunged into the wax, withdrawn after an instant and plnnged again, the process behig repeated until the steel is toe arid to enter the wax. The advantages claimed for this method are that the steel becomes almost as hard as the diamond, and when touched with a little oil or turpentine, the tools are superior for engraving, and also tor piercing the hardest metals.
. The Roman Catholic priests of the Pittsburg diocese have begun to carry out the policy of their church in the matter of secret societies, against the Knights of lahat, a trades organization of rapid growth aud great numerical strength. In conference on the subject, the clergy agreed to refuse absolution to all members of the order, and formal notice of this action has been given in sixty con-1
gregaUons. Bad enough, but the
wav to make the boys "holler calf
n;pe" is to cut oE their supplies of
tobacco and liquor. Among the many unexpected
developments of electrical science is an application to the hiving of
bees when they swerm, successfully tried by German experimenters. It was thought that by utilizing the electric force the bees might be stu
pefied for the necessary period of
time without being injured, and the result proved the correctness of the idea. The first attempt was made upon the bees that had gathered upon trees, the insects falling open the ground in a kind of trance, which admitted of their being safely handled. The next stage in the experiment was to capture the bees when they were about to swarm. By introducing the ends of two eodoecting wires into a fully occupied honey co nib, art! turning on the current, the bees were rendered inactive for about thirty minutes, while no bad results appeared to follow their awakening. Mr. George M. Pollman, the origiuator of and tnaio man in the
disease, and the people are afraid 'to go for their mails. The department at Washington has directed the Postmaster's sureties to remove the office to a safe place. Jeff. Davis is still hopeful. At a reunion of the Association of the Army of Northern Virginia, held at New Orleans Saturday night, he made a short speech, in which he said the cause was not lost but only sleeping. Alluding to the stirring events of the late war in which those before him participated, he said, "Yon have done your duty in the past, and may God spare you to do it in the future, should ever the necessity again arise."
President Garfield was shot on the 2d of last July, and died eleven weeks and two days afterward, on the 19th of September. The trial of Guiteau began on the 14th of November, or eight weeks
after the President's death, and the verdict was given ten -weeks and
two days after the opening of the
trial, it was twenty-nine weeks
and four days from the day of shooting to the day of convictior.,
and it was eighteen weeks and two
days after Gen. Garfield's deatli
that uuiteau was found guilty.

crossing the Coast Range of moun
tains, whether passing from east to
west or vice versa, the traveler experiences the most sudden change of climate and scenery that can be found on any route of travel in the country. In going toward the Pa
cific coast wc breakfasted on the
last morning of the journey amid ice and snow, with winds harsh and bitter sweeping down from the rugged peaks on every side. Before noon on that day we were among
flowers and grass, while the hum
ming of bees in the trees and the lingering of tired foot travelers in the shade gave token we had reach
ed the domains of summer. On
the day that we started toward the Atlantic coast we stood at 2 o'clock in the afternoon under orange trees
in the open air loaded with ripened
fruit, and at 8 o'clock of the same
evening we were passing through
heavy falling snows, which had
drifted in some places higher -than
the -windows ot the cars. The
change, was of course, due to altitude, and not to latitude, but it was not the less striking. Boston Bul

Gold is His Shoes. A colored man who had just sold his cotton, limped along one mf the back streets of little Rock, Ark., and overtaking several colored women who bad refused to marry him, the old man exclaimed, "Suthin's been burtin' my feet all dav, and removing his
shoes, shook out a $20 gold piece. "Suthia' been a hurtin' dis foot.

The drummer inhabits railroad trains. He is always at home on the cars. He always temporarily infests the best rooms in hotel?. In winter he wears an ulster, with the surcingle bangiug loose behind, and in summer a linen duster. He is usually swung ro a satchel containing a comb and brush, another shirt, a clean celluloid collar, and a pair of cuffs ; also a railroad guide, and a newspaper wrapped around a suspicious looking bottle. That is about all the personal baggage he carries, except a Seaside Library novel, and a pocket knife with a corkscrew in the back of it. He has a two-story iron bound trunk containing "sarables of deni goots," which he checks through to the next town. He always travels lor a first-class house the largest firm in their line of business in the United States, a firm that sells more goods and sells them cheaper than any two houses in the country. He is very modest about stating these facts, and blushes when he makes the statement, but he makes it nev
ertheless, probably as a matter of
duty. He can talk ou any subject, although he may not know much about it, but what little he knows he knows, and he lets you know that he knows it. He may be giving his views on the financial policy of the British government,
or he may only be telling you of
what, in his opinion, is good for a boil, but he will do it with an air and a tone that leaves the matter beyond dispute. He is at home everywhere, and he never seems out of place wherever yen find him, although we do not remember everj to have found him in church. Sitting on his gripsack at a way-statiob, ivaiting for a train six hours behind time, and abusing the railroad officials from brakesman to president, with a profuse and robust profanity that gives the air a sulphurous odor for miles around, he seems in perfect keeping with the surroundings. The scene would be as incomplete without him as a horse race without a yellow dog on the track. When the drummer gets into a railroad train, if alone, he occupies two seats. One be sits on, and on the other he piles up his baggage and overcoat, and tries to looks as if they didn't belong to him but to another man who had just stepped into the smoking-car and would be back directly. Drummers are usually found in pairs or quartettes on the cars.. They sit together in a double-seat,
with a valise on end between them, on which they play euchre and other siuful games. When they get tired of playing they go out into
tne smoKiug-car, wnere the man
who is traveling for a distillery "sets 'em up" out of his sample case,
and lor two hours they swop lies about the big bills of goods they have sold in the last town they wore in, tell highly seasoned stories about their personal adventures.and
exhibit to each other the photo
graphs ot the last girls they made impressions on.
While the drummer is not ostentatiously bashful, neither does he
assume any outward show of religion.' His great love of truth is, however, one of his strong points, and he is never known to go beyond
actual facts, except in the matter of
excessive baggage. Regarding this, he will sometimes stretch a point until it will cover up two hundred pounds of a three hundred pound trunk. He is the only man who dares address hotel clerks by their Christain names. He knows every hotel in the country, and every room in every hotel. When he arrives by a late train; he is first to get out of ihd 'bus and reach the clerk's desk, when lie says to the clerk: "Hello, Charley, old fel, how are you? Got No. 16 for me ?" and the clerk flashes his Kohinoor and a smile on him as he shakes his hand, pounds the nicklepkted call-bell, and shouts: "John take the gentleman's baggage to No. 16." In the dining room the drummer
is a favorite with the colored waiters, although he orders more dishes, ami finds more fault with the fare,
than other guests do. lie does not believe the waiter when be tells him the milk is all out, but sends hiru off to inquire further about the matter, aud while the waiter is gone he fills up bis glass out of the blue milk in the cream pitcher. He flirts-witb the chamber maids, teases the bootblacks, and plays practical jokes on the regular boarders. He goes to bed at a late hour, and sleeps so soundly that the porter wakes the people for two blocks around, and shakes the plaster off
the wall, m trying to communicate
to him the fact that the 'bus for the
4:20 a. m. train will start in ten
minutes.
LETTER Fiy!H TEXAS. CoLMAN DyKS's RANCH, Texas, Jan. 25, 1882. j Friend Gabe: As I havo seen a little more of the great State of Texas and especially of that portion of it designated is tho Pan Handle, by your permission I will give to the friendly readers of thi Progress a faint description of it in my own way from my standpoint. Tbe courttry south and east of Clarendon (which is near the centre of Doubley co ) is generally rolling, with largo flats or valleys ranging from hundreds to thousands of acres in them. The high lands are invariably sandy and gravelly, the higher up tlie more gravel; still all grow fine prairie grass. The ralleys or flats era all a black rich looking soil,' with considerable sand and looks as though it would grow anything, and I know with sufficient rain in he proper time of your it would do so. I have been along lied River for several miles for the last eight or ten days. Along the river on one side or the other you will generally find what they call tbe Sand Bills, running out a short distance from the river, somo two or three miles ; then "the rolling prairie with those large Muskeetee flats set in, usually down to too river on one side or the other,the rich val
leys or thus run. A gentleman with me stepped the distance across the river ; it was just 1,400 yards across and not a drop of water in it where we crossed. Some distances above us there was water, then it sinks in the sand and comes up again several miles below where we crossed. Than there is county after county west and northwest of this (Hull and Douley) county, of what is called Stake Plains, apparently ss level us a floor, covered with tlie finest of Muskeetee grass ; soil very black with considerable sand. It looks as though it ought to grow 40 bushels of wheat to tho acre, still you will very seldom find a stock man who will agree that this county will grow anything but grass and cattle, fur it is to their interest the t farmers keep out. There has not been sufficient farming done in this county to test it as a farming county. Two years ago tlievo was a little done in patches,and men toll me who tried it that they novcr saw it excelled. Last year there was raoro farming ions, but like mcst of our country the drouth ruin cd their crops. Somo sub-irrigated spots raised fine produce, then I am told by all with whom I have conversed that 1 have seen nothing but u fair sample of this Pan Handle country. They have corsidorable nice building
rock in this section but it does not compare with the limostono of Monroe county. Then they have a great deal of what they call gip rock as fine and nice as marble. It makes with a little burning (without any sand mixed in it) a good plaster or cement You see adobe, houses plastered on the outside with it. Timber is scarce ; on the little creeks and ravines you will find some seruby timber, mostly cotton wood, seme hackberry and china, ind in places considerable Muskeotee brush. The flrer seem to keep them down but you can go out with a wagon and in a short time pry and dig up a load of Muskeetoe roots that make a better fire than anything. There are more varieties of water in a few miles travel hero than any place I ever saw. There is a little creek ca lled sweet water,has a peculiar sweet taste to it ; then there is bitter creek in which you would have to cast some of the Savior's remedy for bitter water before you coud uso it. Little Bed River is as salt as brine itself, then comes the gip water, as it is called here, which is used at some of tbe Ranch-, es if it is not too strong, but sometimes it is so strong it will not do to coo' with at all ; after a person drinks it two or three days (if the wind comes in the wrong direction) he will smell as strong as if he had been living on sulphur for three
months. Then there is good soft, water in
abundance, both wells and springs.
The only wild fruits of this locality so
far as I have been able to learn,are grapes
and plums; tnoy grow in abunaance on
vines aira nusaes, from one to two ana a half feet high, fruit of large size and said
to be or excellent quality.
No fishing; near here to amount to any
thing. Some streams have small fish in them. Game not plenty, close, except antelope, deer and turkey, to be found in some localities in good flocks. Buffalo and Indians'all gone ; rattlesnakes laid to be plenty when warm weather comos J prairie dogs jn abundance. I might add that from 30 to 50 and 75 miles, in what is called the Cedar Brakoi, considerable cedar is to be found. Your friend. Mc.

"OZONE Purified air, active state of oxygon." Webster.
Bra bargain house. Leu. S. Field & Co's. New York dry goods store is the great sensation of the day. Crowds of people Mock to it at all hours in search of novelties and cheap goods not cheap in texture, but cheap in prices. The new store room is the talk of the county, and people come many miles to see it. While looking at the new room and the handsome fixtures they very naturally see something that strikes them as uncommonly good and cheap and straightway they purchase it. New goods are coming by every train since the firm moved into the new store room and it is wonderful to note the quantity that can be placed upon the shelves. Up-stairs is set apart for carpets, of which they carry a handsome stock,
and the Ladies are invited to in
spect the new patterns.
This preservative is not a liquid, pickle.
or any of the old and exploded processes, but is simply Ozone, as produced and applied by an entirely new process. Ozone
is the antiseptic principle of every substanco, and possesses the power to preserve animal and vegetable structures from decay. There is nothing on the face of the earth liable to decay or spoil which Ozone, tbe new Preservative, will not preserve for all time in a perfectly fresh and palatable condition. Tlie value of Ozone as a natural preserver has been known to cur abler chemists for years, but, until now, no means of producing it in a practical, inexpensive, and simple manner have been discovered. Microscopic observations prove that decay is due to septic matter or minute germs, that develop and feed upon animal
and vegetable structures. Uzoue, applied by Prentiss mothod, seizes and destroys these germs at once, and thus preserves. At our offices in Cincinnati can be seen almost every article that can bo thought of, prcservd by this process, and every visitor is welcome to come in, taste, smoll.tako away with him, and test in every way tho merits of Ozone as a preservative. We will also preserve, free of charge, any article that ia brought or sent prepaid to us, and rot urn it to the sender, for him to beep nnd test. Fresh Meats, such as beef, mutton, veal, pork, poultry, game, fish, etc., preserved by this method, can be shipped to
Europe, subjected to atmospheric changes, and return" to this country in a state of perfect preservation. EggH can be Ustcd at a cost of less than $1 a thousand dozen, and be kept in an ordinary room six months or more, thoroughly preserved ; the yolk held in its normal condition, and the eggs as fresh and perfect as on tho day they were treated, and will sell as strictly "choice." The advantage in preserving eggs is readily seen; there are seasons when they can be bought for 8 or 10 cents a dozen, and by holding them, can bo sold for an advance of from 100 to 300 per cent One man, with this method can preserve 5,000 dozen a day. Fruits may bo permitted to ripen in their native climate, and can be transported to any part of the world. 1 Tho juices expressed from fruits cun bo held for an indefinite period without fer-j
mentation honce the great valuo of this process for producing a temperance beverage. Cider can be held perfectly sweet for any length of time. Vegetables can be kept for any indefinite period in their natural condition, retaining their odor, and flavor, treated in their original packages, at a small expense.
All grains, flour, meal, etc., are held in their normal condition.
Butter, after being treated by this
Prentiss Preserving Co. "Limited
process, will not become rancid.
. Zhsxa is no change in the slightest par
ticular in tho appearance of any article.
mus preservcu, una no trace or any to. -cign or unnatural odor or taste. Tbe process is so simple that a child can operate it as well and us successfully as a man. Thore is no expensive apparatus or machinery required. A room filled with different articles, such as eggs, meat, fish, etc., can be treated at one time, without additional trouble or expense. S4rln fact, thore is nothing that Ozone will not preserve. Think of everything you can that is liable to sour, decay, or spoil, and then remember that we guarantee that Ozone will preserve it in exactly the condition you want it for any length of time. If you will remember this, it will save asking questions as to whether
Ozone will preserve thin or that article it will preserve any thing and every thing you ean think of. There is not a township in tbe United States in which a live man can not mako any amount of money, from $1,000 to 410,000 a year, that he pleairo. We des'r to get a live man interested in each township iu tbe county, in whoso hands we can place this pnsservative, and through him, secure tho business each township should have.
