SPOT CASH.
Owing to other dealers adopting the cash system, and thereby selling goods at a smaller profit,
I will sell for Spot Cash only. You have no doubt heard a good deal lately about cheap sugar and clothing, but not a word about cheap drugs. The tariff has been reduced on a good many things you need in the drug line, and having taken advantage of the low prices we can give you better and closer prices than ever by the spot cash system. Call and sec our prices, and vou will be benefitted by our new departure.

THE county officials are perfecting their organization and will move on the Legislature. They want the old fee system again. Let county officers be given salaries and then not extravagantly high.
CARLISLE'S currency plan may be beaten in the House. In addition to the Republicans there are eighteen Democrats and four Populists booked for speeches against it. It is a oill that deserves to be beaten and in case it should pull through in the house it will be killed in the Senate. 1

Last evening at 7 o'clock occurred the handsome wedding of John L. McNew, of this city and Miss Ada Blanche Braddock of near Willow Branch.

Ward Cook, of this city and Mr. Joseph Ed Thomas and wife, ©f Indianapolis. The house had been beautifully and artistically decorated by Forest, the florist, in his best style with cut flowers and flowering plants. At the appointed hour, the bride and groom entered tha room to the strains of the wedding march,as played by Miss True Alter, of Cincinnati. They were followed by two sweet little girl pages, beautiful in face and apparel. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. W Bowen, of the Charlottesvill M. E. church the pastor of the bride.

BOUGHT FREEDOM WITH DEATH.
Ncz Perce Horses Followed Their Leader Over the CliiV.
The hardy little Nez Perce horse is quite well known in a way, but few people know what remarkable courage and sagacity he has. When the Indian war swept the Nez Perce country, the Indians gathered about 5,000 horses into a valley that fronted on the steep bluffs of the Columbia river, and there, with the great white mountains at their back, prepared to make their last desperate stand
In the battle that followed they were defeated, and the small fraction of them that remained unkilled put to flight. The horses, shut in by the steep mountains on the one side and the steep river bluff on the other, had to be left behind.
When the battle had closed, the soldiers of the volunteers (for only a part were regulars) made a rush for tho horses, but they could not la}* hands on one of them or approach them.
And now for the first time it was noticed that they were under a boy herder. The boy was unarmed, entirely naked and as red as copper.
The boy had no bridle, but wove his hands into tho mane, and thus guided his black horse at will at tho head of the ht-rd.
Tiie volunteers drop-pod on their knees hero and there around tho edge of the circle and began to lire at the boy. At last a bullet .'-truck him. His body fiew high into tho air and then foil and rolled in the dust.
Tho horses how divided as they camo by. Their nostrils were distended at tho smell of blood, and their eyes ablaze at the sight of their young keeper in tho dust.
On tho second round, after tho boy fell, the black leader seemed to run sidewise, his eyes fastened to his little dead master until they looked frightful from under the black mane.
He plunged on around and came to the very edge of the beetling basalt bluff. Then there was a sight as of a sculptured image of a liorso poised in midair, and a mad, wild cry, such as a horse makes but once—a cry indescribable—that filled tho valley.
Men looked away, and when they looked back tho black statue was gone. Then, faithful to the leader, over tho bluff into the foaming wliito water went another horse.
And then 10, 50, 500, the wholo 5,000! Not one of all tho herd was left to the invading victors, and the stream was literally choked with tho dead.— Joaquin Miller.
PORTLAND'S SMALLEST HOUSE.
Three Koonis Crowded Into .Space Tfot l^arge l' One.
For upward of 10 years Portland lias had within its corporate limits one of the smallest dwelling houses in this broad land of ours. At first glance it might be mistaken for a pliiyhou.se, as it stands alone in tho center of the block on Northrup street, between Nineteenth and Twentieth.
The place has a history, and many of Portland's residents have made themselves familiar with it by personal inquiry aud investigation. About 10 years story goes, a seafaring man the northwest portion of the city before streets had been opened and graded, and, struck by the beauty of the surroundings, determined to build himself an abode in which to pass his declining years.
the I ago, so tho happened
I
Tho builder endeavored to make his home as much like ships' quarters as possible, and in this he succeeded admirably. Tho house contains three rooms—kitchen, dining room and bedroom—and occupies a patch of ground about 10 by 12 feet. It stands about feet in height. The kitchen is just largo enough to accommodate a cook stove and table, and the dining room is sufficiently large to allow two persons to move about. The parlor and bedroom combined contains a couch, two chairs and a table and resembles the stateroom of an ocean steamer. The bed, or berth, is located three or four feet above the floor on a chest of drawers and is hidden from view by handsome lace draperies. By lowering a panel on the opposite side of the room a bright array of chinaware is exposed to view, and the panel itself may bo used as a table or writing shelf. —Portland Telegram.
L-a&t May Outshine Her Mother.
The little daughter of Harriet A. Ketchum, tho late Iowa sculptress, is said to already display marked artistic ability. Unlike her mother, however, her sensitive nature finds its best expression in music rather than clay and marble. This little girl it was who was born to Mrs. Ketchum shortly after the completion of the famous statuo of the "Peri" in Rome, and who thus has every right to share in her mother's love of art. Her name is, romantically enough, Roma Beatrice, and it was her small fingers that unveiled the "Peri" at tho World's fair last year, the loyal Iowans having loaned it to adorn their state building. Mrs. Ketchum's last and largest achievement—a magnificent design for a soldiers' monument, completed just before her death in 1890—is one of the "sights" of Burlington, la.
The Hoy Agassiz.
Louis Agassiz was so export a fisherman when a little boy lie could catch them iu his hand, fascinating them first by strange motions of his fingers. Ho kept a number of pet fish in a stone basin behind his father's house and was clever at taming field mice and all sorts of little animals and insects. Ho was an expert littlo cobbler mid cooper, could make water tight barrels as well as a man and manufactured pretty shoes for his sisters' dolls.—Chicago Inter Ocean.
