Reformed by the Lash.

Although Mr. Dmcan’s whole course has been calculated to win the love and confide nee of the Metlakahtla Indians, his rule has been firm, One of the firstjpublic buddings erected was a jail, and the whipping-post beceme an established institution for the punishment of those who threatened to take life. On one occasion it became necessary to whip a desperately bad man, and the constables were afraid that he would kil ; the one who applied the lash. Mr. Duncan told them to blindfold him so that he would not know who did the whipping A handkerchief was tied about his eyes, and the constable took the piece of rope, but he was so nervous that he began to talk. Of course the man recognized his voice. Thereupon Mr. Duncan took the piece of rope from the constable, and going to the criminal said: “I will tell you who is going to whip you; I am going to do it myself; do you understand?” Then he whipped him. The culprit is now one of the best men in Metlakhatla.—The American Magazine.

General Fairchild, at a Grand Army meeting in New York on Wednesday evening, made use of the following|wrords, applying them to I. resid?nt Cleveland: “May God palsy the hand that wrote the order! May God palsy the brain that conceived it, and may God palsy the tongue that dictated it!” These words evince the spirit that caused the assassination of President Garfield. But after all it appears that President Cleveland’s hand did not write the order. It was written by Adjutant General Drum, a native of Somerset cou ity, Pa., and a republican all his life. We do not know whether General Fairchild is concerned in what appears as a general movement among republican politicians to take every opportunity to cast opprobrium on the President oi the United States for the purposes of lessening his char ces for re-election, should he be a candidate, but the words quoted are unworthy of a man occupying the position of General Commander of the Grand Army. Presid’n. Cleveland’s manly course in countermanding Gen Drum’s oruer was known to Commander Fairchild when he made another attack on the President at New Haven on Thursday evening.— Altoona (Pa.)

To cure a felon, saturate a bit of grated wild turnip the size of a bean with spirits of turpentine and apply/ to the affected part. It relieves the pain at once and in twelve hours or less there will be a hole to the bone. Dress with sticking salve and the finger is well. So says an exchange. Unthinking people frequently throw large pieces of paper on the streets, sometimes an entire newspaper, little thinking of the serious results that may ensue. Nothing frightens *he average horse more easily than to have piece of paper Mown in his face from the road. »

Summer Normal Institute.

The Jasper County Normal Institute will open in the Rensselaer Public School Building, J.dy 18, 1887, and will continue five weeks. OBJECTS OF THE NORMAL INSTITUTE. (1.) The object of the Normal shall be to give the teachers of Jasper and adjoining counties an opportunity to thoroughly review the common school branches. (2.) To inculcate correct principles as to school governmntas well as th<» impartatiou of knowledge. (3.) To form habits of regularity and punctuality in attendance. (4.) To encourage rapidity of work, clearness and accuracy of expression and fidelity to duty. TUITION.-For full term, in advance, $4 50. Per week, SI 00. INSTRUCTORS. J. F. Warren, County Superintendent; 1. W. Reubnit, Sup’t. Rensselaer Schools; Bailey Martin, Prin. Franklin High School; A. O. Warren, teacher Rensselaer schools. All teachers who expect to teach in Jasper county should make it convenient to attend the Normal during the entire term, as the work done will be of great value to them. The work will be performed in systematic, logical order, each recitation to be a link in a continuous chain of academic work, which instruction, it is to be hoped, will be of incalculable value to them in their winter’s work in the schoolroom. Good board and comfortable rooms can be had in private familins at from S 2 50 to S 3 00 per week. Rooms can be rented and arrangements made for students to board themselves, thereby greatly reducing expenses. The annual County Teachers’ Institute will be held the week imr mediately following the close of the Summer Normal, and further announcement of which will be made in due season. If further information is desired call on or address

J. F. WARREN,

Senator Sherman’s letter declining the invitation to attend the reunion of the survivors of the Philadelphia brigade and Pickett’s division of confederate’s at Gettysburg shows that he Inis been considerably affected by the comments upon his Springfield speech. In it he says: “There should be no enmity or prejudice between union and confederate soldiers, and now that all alike feel that an indestructible union binds us together there should be a cordial and hearty fellow ship between the blue and the gray.’’ This is quite in the dulcet key of John’s mellifluous chin music at Nashville, but it will do him no good, for his shifting assertions have proved that he it a dem >gogue and unworthy of confidence.

The New York Tribune answers its own conundrum, “Why are thos rebel flags like President Cleveland?” with: ‘Because they . are not to be returned.” And yet the proper and correct answer is: “Because they will remain where they are.” , As Ben Butler made no fuss over the return of tho-e trophies of is valor, the “rebel spoons,” it is rot easy to see why he should make any fuss over the return of rebel flags in whos capture he had no interest.
