present expedition. Lieutenant Peary has also had experience in exploration in the tropics, having twice crossed Nicaragua from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Tlio World Would Bo tho Better for It.

If men cared less for wealth and fame. And less for battlefields and glory If writ in human hearts a name

Seemed better than in song or story If men instead of nursing pride Would learu to hate it and abhor it:

If more relied On Love to guide,

Tho world would bo the better for it.

it men dealt less in stocks and lands, And more in bonds and deeds fraternal If Love's work had more willing hands

To link this world with tho snpernal If men stored up Love's oil and wine And on bruised human hearts would poor

1U If "yours" and "mine" Would onco combine. The world would bo the better for it. If more would act tho play of Life,

And fewer spoil it in rehearsal If Bigotry would sheath its knife Till good bocamo mora universal If Custom, gray with ages grown.

Had fewer blind men to adore it— If Talent shone In Truth alone, Tho world would bo tho better for it. If men were wiso in little things-

Affecting less in all their dealings If hearts had fewer rusted strings To isolate their kindred feelings If men, whon Wrong beats down tlio Right,

Would strike together to restore it— If Right made Might In every fight, Tho world would bo the better for it. -M. II. Cobb.

treatment he will soon shuffle off this mortal coil under the influence of hydrophobia. They offer to give him a sure cure though for S100. Mr. Tapp still believes in the madstone. —Thursday Tully Cra-".-a sprang upon his bicycle and started at a rapid rate for the bank. In some way the left leg of his pantaloons became entangled in his bicycle chain and before he could stop the machine Tully was undressed right in the public streets. He blushingly rode back to the feed store and sent a small boy hustling after his other pantaloons, while he remained concealed in the oat bin. —The directors of the World's Fair want two trustees from eyery county to meet at the State teachers' association next December to appoint a committee to have in charge the school exhibit of Indiana during the fair.

Extravagant fromises.'.

Col. Anderson, late of the Junction House, has declared that he intends to revolutionize the south-east part of town. He says that within a year he will have electric cars running to the Junction, that he will open a street south of the Junction and call it Anderson street, and that he will shortly purchase 70 acres of land just south of the Junction and make a city park of it. All this is very beautiful but the realization of the project would be more so.

A Scene of Excitement.

On Thursday some destructive small boys set fire to the grass in the hollow back of the houses just opposite the Monon station. The grass was burning rapidly and approaching the houses when a gang of men set in to fight the flames. Becky Oatman and a lot of other females ran excitedly around and cheered the men lustily on. Becky was so grateful that she wanted to set the whole crowd up to beer when the fierce conflagration was finally subdued.

When Old Jack Died.

When Old Jack died wo staid from school Cthey said At home wo needn't go that day), and nono

Of us ato any breakfast—only one. And that was papa—and his eyes wcro red When ho came round where wo were, by the shed

Where Jack was lying, half way in tho sun And half way in the shade. When we begun

To cry out loud, pa turned and dropped hig bead And went away, and mamma, she went back

Into tho kitchen. Then, for a long while. All to ourselves like, we stood there and cried Wo thought so many good things of Old Jack,

And funny things—although we didn't smile Wo couldn't only cry when Old Jack died. When Old Jack died it seemed a human friend

Had suddenly gone from us that some face That we had loved to fondle and embrace From babyhood no more would condescend To smile on us forover. We might bend

With tearful eyes above him, interlace Our chubby fingers o'er him, romp and race, Plead with him, call and coax—aye, wo might send

Tho old halloo up for him, whistle, hist (If sobs had let us), or, as wildly vain. Snapped thumbs, called "Speak," and he had not replied We might have gone down on our knees and kissed

The tousled ears, and yet they most remain Deaf, motionless, we know, when Old Jack died.

When Old Jack died itseemed tons, some way. That all the other dogs in town were pained With our bereavement, and some that were chained Even unslipped their collars on that day To visit Jack in state, as though to pay

A last sad tribute there while neighbors craned Their heads above the high board fence, and deigned To sigh "Poor dog!" remembering how they

Had cuffed him when alive, perchance, because. For love of them, he leaped to lick their hands—

Now that he could not, were they satisfied? We children thought that, aa we crossed his paws,

And o'er his grave, Vay down the bottom lands. Wrote "Our First Love Lies Here," when

Old Jack died. —James Whitoomb Biley.

CHEAP AND CONVENIJ,T,

Barn That Can Bo Built for Two or Threw Hundred Dolhrs.

I send plan of a cheap barn, combined with sheep and cattlc shed, with basement omitted. Tlio barn proper is '23 by 40 feet, post's 20 feet, which gives me ample room for storing away hay, etc. The lower barn floor is raised ~}S feet above the floor of the horse stable. There is no partition between the main barn and the horse stalls. The horses face the center of barn, with feed boxes and mangers placed conveniently for giving them feed and water. A double door on hangers opens into the main barn, arranged so that a wagon can be driven into the barn. An open manure shed on the south side next to the horse barn is 12 by 40 feet: the manure from horse barn is thrown into it through windows conveniently placed. A large corn crib occupies the space in northwest corner of main barn. A double granary, with bins for bran, etc., occupies the northeast corner. The space between corn crib and granary is used for storing reaper, drill, horse-rake, plows, etc. The upper floor extends the entire length and width of the barn. Ilay, etc., is thrown down through an opening left for that purpose.

In the subjoined plan, clear openings are doors, openings with one line across are windows.

The latter is 12 by 40 feet, is open on the south (this opening ing is covered by extension of manure shed), with large double doors taking up the entire north end. so that a wagon can be driven through, to put corn into crib and remove manure. The cattle shed adjoins the sheep shed, and is 13 by 40 feet, fitted with stalls, feed boxes, mangers and stanchions for fourteen cattle. Five openings or windows and one door, between sheep and cattle sheds, are arranged so as to enable us to get feed to cattle from main barn. The windows in the cattle shed are placed at convenient distances for throwing out the manure. The space left by extension of manure shed is utilized by building a cow house that will accommodate two cows and calves.

This barn I built three years ago at a cost of about S250, exclusive of cattle shed and cow house the latter I built myself, with help of a farm hand, out of material taken from an old barn which we tore down, except the stanchions, which I paid a carpenter §5 for making. The barn is made throughout of hard wood (unplaned), principally beech. It has proved convenient, aud meets the requirements of 4 to 0 horses, 25 to 50 sheep and 10 cattle it also is not too exacting on a slender purse.—Country Gentleman.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

THE water is a source of disease as soon as a single fowl is sick. LINSEED oil meal can be given daily while the hens are moulting.

INTRODUCING new blood annually is necessary to secure healthy, vigorous poultry.

GIVE a variety of grain—oats in the bundle, corn in the ear and small grain in litter.

IF well managed, poultry can be made to supply a fair proportion of the meat needed for family use.

WHILE care should always be taken in giving salt, as a rule it will be found a good plan to salt all soft feed. 13ECAU.SE the poultry run after you when you go in the yard is no indication that they need feeding, llabit is often the real reason.

USE plenty of slaked lime in the house and yard during the hot weather, especially if the poultry are confined it is a cheap disinfectant.

DURING the summer eggs should never be used for nest eggs there is too much risk of making a mistake that, to say the least, may not be pleasant.

DUI'.INO tho summer, especially, there is no better grain to feed the laying hens than whole wheat. If they are given a good range, however, only a light feed will be necessary.

NEST-EGO gourds make the best nest eggs they are light, cheap, convenient, and there is practically no danger of breakage by the other eggs rolling down against them, as is the case with porcelain.

A Rival to tlie Shetland Pony. There is a rival in the southern horse marts to the Shetland pony. This, explains the Southern Cultivator, is an outcome of the war and called creole. He is a miniature horse, and originated during and since the war in the prairies along the Gulf coast from Mobile to the western limit of Louisiana. Many planters during the war allowed their thoroughbred mares to escape and, breeding in the wild state with the natives, the size has gradually diminished until many of them do not reach thirteen hands, and few of them go much over that. The good blood in them shows in their symmetry, and their better-style and action commend them to-a boy. They are too mettlesome for a child of four or five years, but for the girl from seven to ten they fill the bill. For driving purposes they are not so good as the Shetland, as the Infusion of thoroughbred blood makes them impatient of so ignoble work. The gait is a long gallop.

SEVERAL SHOCKS CAUSE A PANIC.

No One Is Hurt, However, und Property Is but Slightly Dniniigecl— Disastrous Work of Cloudbursts anl LIUMIsliries Out West.

EARTHQUAKE AT EVANSVILLE. EVANSVILLE, Ind., July '27.—At S: O Sunday evening Evansville experienced a severe earthquake shock. The entire city was thrown into a panic, congregations in all the churches rose to their feet in the midst of the service and ran pell mell into the street, women and children screaming and fainting. At the hotels the greatest excitement prevailed. Guests rushed from their rooms into the corridors, then into the office and finally on to the streets. The duration of the shocks was scarcely more than three seconds, but it was long enough to unhouse nearly every man, woman and child in Evansville. i!

The noise accompanying the disturbance was really the most panicky part of the whole performance. It was loud and indescribable. It was not a report like a cannon, but rather like crashing of a big tree in a heavy wind.

At the First Baptist church Dr. Heagle had just given out his tuxt when there was a rumble, a shock and the building groaned. The congregation*^ was thoroughly terrified and the church was empty before one could count five.

Jatncs Seiffert and wife and two ladies were driving along Cherry street in a carriage when the shock came, l'he people pouring out of McFarlaiul chapel frightened the horse and a runaway resulted. All the occupants of the vehicle were more or less injured, but none fatally. At first nobody appeared to be certain of just what was the matter. On Sycamore street, near the chamber of commerce, some one of the excited throng there cried "The courthouse." Immediately there was a headlong rush in the direction of that structure. Its foundation had been' said to be weak and everybody seemed to conclude that the massive pile had collapsed.

The shock was felt more severely in the southwest end of the city. Part of the side wall of the Stock Yard hotel was shaken oflf and the window lights in several houses in the western section of the town were broken. This is the first shock felt in this vicinity for several years. It was much more pronounced than the last.

rv

The distinct report accompanying the shock led many to suppose that a powder magazine on the outskirts of the city had let go. The vibration at Henderson, 10 miles below here, was very violent. Chairs were overturned and several buildings are said to have been wrecked. Reports from other outlying cities tell of no serious damage. Mount Vernon, Newburg and other southern Indiana points and places in northern Kentucky experienced stronger earthquake shocks than those felt in Evansville.

A Fatal Mistake.

I-hysicians make no more fatal than when they inform patients that nervous heart troubles come from tho stsmach and are of little consequence. Dr.Fr mklin Miles, the noted Indiana specialist, has proven the contrary in his new book on

Heart Disease," which may behad free at Nye & Co. who guarantees and recommends Dr. Miles' uneaqualed New Heart Cure, which eas the largest sale of any heart remedy in the world. It cures nervous and organic heart disease, short breath, fluttering, pain or tencerness the side arm or shoulder irregular pulse, fainting, smothering, dropsy, etc. His Resorative Nervine cures headache, fits, etc.
