One item in the will reads as follows:

I most, earnestly desire and direct that no conspicuous or costly grave slono or monument be placed at niv ,'rave---nothing but the simplest stone to mark the place.

Tho will is dated January 18, IK.HK, and was made at. Grinnoll, Iowa.

v-'. Late, But Good.

Charles Boechlor. the famous ideologist, was the victim of a cruel April fool instigated by Ale Levinson. It was in this wise: Shortly before the eventful day Abe notified the Prof, that ho would soon receive somo curious pebbles from an eastern friend and on the morning of April first called his victim into his dry goods emporium, lie then exhibited to Charles stones of various brilliant colors that fairly took his breath away. While lost in admiration, what was the scientist's consternation when 1 he foxy Abe indifferently cnvoyt-.l one of the stones to his mouth and commenced munching in seeming delight. -They were tiijc candy and tin- pride of the oehinoilcriiiS has boon duped. Charlie made his escape in double quick time greatly chagrined at Lovinson's inability to appreciate the infallibility of science. ,.

Y. M. C. A, Anniversary,

The second anniversity of the Crawfonlsville Y. M. C. A. will occur on next Thursday. April '.I. It will be celebratin a fitting manner, Hev. (i. W. Clokev D. I)., of New Albany, will deliver the address at the auditorium, his subject being "The Outlook for the Twelve Million Young Men." Kveryliody is invited out, but es|ecinlly business men and parents. The President, the General Secretary and the Treasurer will submit, their annual reports, and it is also probable that State Secretary Stacv will be present. Music will be on the programme too.

Matters of the Fair.

The directors of tho fair association mot at the- small court room this morning. John S. liiowii was instructed to repair the fence ail around 1 lie ground by putting in new locust posts. Jas. AMount was instructed to call a meeting of the Indies for the purpose of revising the ladies' lists. The Superintendents were instructed to report 'their expert judges by May 1. The committee on seeing Cal Barnhill and John llutton about retaining their places on the fair grounds committee asked and wore granted more time.

Tb« Horse Show Postponed. On account of the? extremely bad weather the third annual horse show has been postponed from to-day until Saturday, April 18. There are quite a number of blooded horses in the city while their owners are exhibiting but no procession occurred, the band was not out and no awards were mado. The ]H)Stponement was a wise move made in the interest of horsemen, visitors and merchant. Remember tho date of the horse show, April 18.

The Union Township Contest. Two young ladies and one boy spoke nt the small court room this afternoon for tho honor of representing Union township at the county contest which takes place April 18. Tho judges were Will Maxedon, Will White and Will Hunt and they awarded the first places to Miss Lizzio Groves, of Beech Grove, and Gregory Kelly.

Thou {lust ull wusons tor thine own. death!" Louisa Florence Young, only daughter of Lizzio and John V. Young, born May 27, 18(14, died March 28, 18!)]. Louie was the precious jewel of the home circle. She was a joy and comfort to her mother. Around his only daughter, clustered a fond father's affections. In a kind sister centered the love of brothers. Daily in the home was manifest, for parents and brothers, the love of a daughter, the kindness of a sister. Her presence and kindness brought sunshine and gladness to the homo. Her life was a model of gentleness, kindness and sympathy. No unkind word, or act of hers, over offended even tho most sonsiive lint urc. I hiring her long sickness, lasting mole than ten months from the aged down to little children, all manifested their tender sympathy and love for one who had been so kind and con. sidcrate to all. She was free from os|vet tentation: modesty, kindness and gentleness of spirit characterized her life. While attending the public school in Crawfoi'dsvillo. her gentle demeanor, her careful deportment, won for her the high regard of both teacher and associates. liev. Dr. McMillen, of Alexander College. Kv„ said to the writer: "Miss Louie, by her kind actions, her exemplary life, her bright mind, won for tho esteem of all in the college.-' For fifteen years the writer was her teacher in the Sunday school, which enabled him to bear the most positive testimony that her lile was one of the brightest examples of modesty, respect and indnet-s that it has ever fallen his lot to meet. As a high regard lo her worthy life, and to pay the last tribute of respect to lu precious no inorv. one of the largest assemblages that ever congregated in Shannondale was present nt her fuller ,!. The pastor of her church. Kev. ij. H. MeMaster, culidticted an appropriate service. "Her mime shall live

Loueks. Her Christian life was worthy of emulation. Her gentle spirit, has been transported to the realm of eternal day. but the example of her beautiful life still lives to bless her memory. To each member of the family, her parting words can never lie forgotten. They were tender entreaties to meet her in Heaven, and jerfoct there the dear home circle. By the most tender words she sought to lighten the burden of sorrow that filled the hearts of the grief stricken family. "Mother." she said, "the memory of the happy hours in our dear home will be left you until we meet in Heaven." Tenderly she loved her parents, to her youngest brother.

RARY NOTES.

1 lie executive mansion, the "White House, always tin object of interest to the jieoplo of the I'nited States, and one of the first points to be visited by those who go to Washington, is inscribed in the current Cosmojiolitan bv Mr. George Grantham Rain, the Washington correspondent, while the interior is illustrated with many views tnki '.i ir. pi riiiission of the President.

In his .article on "The Fatooftho Election Rill." in t.ho April Forum Senator Hoar declan

that measure would turn its back the essential principle that has made Republicanism what it is: and he vigorously scores those Northern busino.-s men who, lie says, by refusing adherence to the party, have played into tile hands of the opponents of honest money.

One of the most striking features of this issue of The Arena is I rof. Jas. T. Bixby' contribution on "Ruddhism in the New Testament." It is a reply to

Har/ierx Young Pcujtlv litis something attractive to offer to young gardeners ill the way of a ••Cotton Contest." proposes to give one hundred prizes to those who prove tho best cotton "planters." Anybody may compete, whether subscribers or not. and schools are especially invited to do no. Cotton, it is said, will grow in the North if properly cared for.

It is with peculiar interest therefore that one reads Lewis (4. Wilson's article "llopcdale and Its Founder" in the AV?r Eitnlait'l Maijii'itti' for April. Adin Ballon was really a more notable socialist than any of the members of the Brook Farm community. lie strikes one as being more in earnest than the Brook Farm trancendentalists. and his remarkable friendship with Tolstoi shows how highly his work was regarded by that great ltncanting visionary. The llopcdale community lasted longer than tiny similar experiment either on this continent or in Europe.

MIGRATORY BIRDS.

The Order In Whlrh Tlicy Roturn to XnrClirrn Wood* In Sprlnc-. The first bird to return is the robin. The robin is known as a wanderer on the face of the earth. Mo usually makes his appearance early in February, when the ground is still mantled In snow anil ice, and when, it would seem, lie could find nothing to eat. The robin visits every part of the union. Res makes his mud-spattered uest on an apple bough in the1 orchard. The eggs are usually of a blue-green color, and from four to six in number. 1 he second bird ,.o return is the binebird. Familiar to all must be this cheery bird, one of spring's earliest vis'tors, and oner of tho most welcome ones withal. All of us who have ever been in the country can recall finding the bluebird's nest, usually in some hollow stmnp or other artificial retreat. A dainty nest it is, too, lined with horsehnir and the depository for, perhaps, half a dozen pale blue eggs.

Then comes back again, next in order. the meadow lark. This bird i*. clumsy in form, though of rich yet subdued plumage. Its general aspect is brown, with streaks of ash over its crown. Tho meadow lark llios low over tho fields, its wings rustling much of the startled fashion of the quail started from cover. Its nest, is a rude affair, loosely constructed of small twigs, dead wood. etc.

he song sparrow follows the meadow larlc. This uheer.v songster is with us the year around. It comes tirst in the early springtime. Who does not know the song sparrow? A modest bird, of simple, unadorned plumage, this bird is the lifo of our hedges and groves, whistling a soft, subdued note, sweet and tender in its melody. I 'I he blackbirds next return to their old. old haunts. There are many species Oi this family of birds, such as the crow blackbird, the red-winged black-bird, etc. The blackbird is much in demand at the hand- HI the amateur hunter or sportsman, who lnnl- this ,.asv

The sudden changes of temperature and the carelessness of people generally who are apt to expose* themselves unnecessarily to wet and cold arc? fruitful inducements to this disease, the statistics of which shown fatality of about, thirty in one hundred cases. The malady. says the Chicago Tribune, was formerly known a-~ lung fever. It tin infiainination or congestion of Unkings. and there arc four distinct classes —the lobar, lobular, fibrous and caseous or tubercular pncnuionia.

When this brownish color gives way to gray the malady Ins reached the third stage, that of "gray hepatization." Thi* is the stage ol "absorption" in favorable eases. \vh"n convalescence ensues. In unfavorable easesthe disease parses into tin* purulent stage, when death is likely lo on st'ie within a very few days, somet-.inc.--in a few hours.

The first symptom is usually a pro nouneed chill, followed by a sharp pain within a circumscribed space at or near the nipple on the affected side. A rucking cough and expectoration soon follow. This is the stage in which the oval bacteria is found in the sputum. Then follows high fever, pain in the head, loss of appetite, severe thirst prostration, increased respiration and pulse varying from sil to l'Jtl.

In the second stage pain may cease, but the cough may continue, though less hard and painful. In the third sta::e the patient, if the symptoms arc* f::\. rable. will cough less: respiration will resume its normal condition, appetite will return and pain will almo-t. not entirely, disappear. One oi the peculiarities of pneumonia is that this third stage in the intcmserate may load to delirium tremens. Once convalescence begins in eases of pneumonia, however, recovery is almost certain Fatal relapses are very infrequent Pericarditis, or in'J.unmation of the membranous sack Avhicli incloses the heart, is a very grave com] '.icaiion in ncumonia.

The Italtimore oriole returns to nip the opening cherries. This bird is the prince of migratory songsters. In plumage it is of dazzling beauty, its breast glowing like a ilame. with back

THE BREEDING OF TROUT,

The Work Done lit the Vurlnus I'lsli Hutcherh»*. Some idea of the work accomplished at the various fish hatcheries in the state of New York which are under the

control of the state board of fish com-

Some of the streams to which tho brown trout were sent arc the Willowemae, Reavcrkiil, N'eversink, Unadilla, Sauquuit creek. Lake Keuka, Silver creek, Otego creek, Calicoon brook, Twin lakes, Hemlock luke, Chittcnuugo Ci'ok, Curenovla lako, Greoa river.

missioners can be gained from a glance at the figures representing the fish fry that have been distributed during the past year.

Thirty-nine million nine hundred and thirty thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight is the number. Of this

number more lake trout than any other fish were sent forth as a basis for a I great growth of fish, in all S,9«r,00U fry of this varioty of trout having been distributed, and yet enough old trout remain in the hatchery ponds to furnish more than enough spawn to supply all orders that the commissioners may have during the year.

The fish commissioners are unanimous in their feeling that special attention should be paid to the feed fish, and that such varieties should be propagated as will furnish a fish supply to poor people residing in the state. The brown trout is agamy fish, and it makes just as good eating as the native brook trout. 11 takes to the cold-water streams of the state just as readily. At the Caledonia hatchery, whore in 1834 the first of the variety were hatched, there are now breeders which weigh from four to six and one-half pounds. The brown trout is hardy, and the shipments from the hatcheries show that the young stand a journey well. These trout are being distributed all over the state.

Taking all tho trout varieties outside of the lake trout and salmon. 5,R:it,4S0 are fry and eggs were sent out They have been scattered in streams all over the state and almost every trout stream has received a supply. Most of this work is done by private parties. Persons having a desire to plant fish in their streams have only to pay the expense of messengers to care for tho fry and the transporUction of the fish to gratify their desire. The amounts distributed vary in lots from 5.00U to 150,000 fry.

The real Brazilian pebble is a kind of rovk crystal, found in many parts of tho world, but in great profusion in lirazil, .nd hence the name. There is a pet superstition that the.

labor anil care required to grind the crystal to the proper shape. The only real advantage the erjstaA lenses have? over those of glass is in the hardness of the material, which renders them much less liable to become scratched and so dimmed, but otherwise the glass is as good. There are several tests by which to distinguish the genuine pebble from tin* glass imitation. but the most easily applied is that of touch. Tile real pebble will feel far colder to the linger or tongue than the glass, so much so that, after touching a glass lens and then one of crystal any one will be able to detect the liitTcrc""!'.
