crcle of friends After services at the grave by Elder Gowen the remains were interred in the Lancaster Sunday afternoon at three oclock Unnecessary Delay Since this change in the running of the trains our people are greatly an noyed and inconvenienced from the fact that no mail is put off here from the night trains Mr West the post master has written to headquarters stating the case and if a change is not made right away some one will go to Cincinnati and lay the matter before the post o111 je authorities The people do not want this mail opened at night but it can b3 put off and kept at the depot until the regular time for op3n ng the office in the morning It is said thatBO one meets the night trains but it does seem that in a town of this size that a matter as important as this should not ba overlooked As matters now are our Louisville and other morning mail from the south is taken to Richmond and brought back at 11 10 J here is absolutely no excuse for this delay and if the

that every thing which is beautiful tends to give beauty to character I have had the pupils give a great deal of attention to flowers But even if it should have no refining influence still the time is well spent for when boys and girls become interested in flowers they have something to occupy their leisure moments even though they are alone in the fields or woods Without such interest and hence without such occupation their idle time will be spent in some other way perhaps some questionable way But merely the reason that the is so interesting so fascinating 1 My pupils have found some very things aoout some very com mon flowers and things too that are not very generally known First take the dogwood blossom It is not one blossom but about twenty five blossoms Look in the center and you will find at least two dozen little flowers Next the clover blossom soCjilled is not a clover blossom at all but entyfive clover blossoms The dandelion one of the and most unnoticed flowers is one of the most peculiar There are two hundred and twentyfive in one Each 4 belt vo d printing study thinksuflicient Jf JI interesting perfect se commonest patrons ooo4aoo ooaaoaapaoooooa0ooaooob o0

pretty good clocks as they open about the same time every morning and close about the same time at night 539 a m and 830 p m being the times There is a weed that grows along the wayside usually called white top that is one of the best examples of the composite family the family with many lowers in one Its is four hundred and sixtyfive the highest number we have found but isnt that high enough My pupils have counted all these flowers so they will defend these statements We have all been very much in the study of the violet We heard of a school that had found different kinds Wondering if we could find so many around here we agreed to try and instead of seven we found nineteen The only chance for a mistake is for some of them to be freaks instead of regular types In order to beautify the yard and make the more homelike for the pupils I suggested that all who wanted to could contribute whatever amount he might wish and we would buy flower seeds and bulbs to suit all seasons so we might have flowers all the year round as nearly as possible supplemented the amount the pupils raised by giving several dollars my self The interest they have shown the familylike spirit it has brought about has fully repaid me oven without the flowers themselves only hope the pupils will continue to show the same interest after 1 am gone that they have shown recently Another Case of Rheumatism

all horrors It is butchery wholesale It is murder glorified It is death on a throne of human skeletons It is the coilin in ascendancy It is diabolism at a game of skulls Rut war is here and it is now to preach on its al leviationsFirst find an alleviation in the fact that it has consolidated the north and south after longcontinued strain ed relations It is years since our civil war closed and time

sectional grudges forever dead The name of Grant on the northern side and of Lee on the southern side will be exchanged for the names of Grant and Lee on the same side The veterans in northern and southern homes and asylums are stretching their rheu matic limbs to see whether they can keep step in a march and are testing their eyesight to find whether they can again look along the gun barrel tosuccessully take aim and fire Time old war cry of On to llichmond and On to Washington has become the war cry of On to Ha On to Porto KicoM On to the Philippine islands The two old rusty swords that in other days clashed at Murfreesboro and South Mountain and Atlanta are now lifted to strike down Hispanic ambominations s beside luna aain ana south iv Another alleviation of the war the fact that it is time most unselfish war of the ages While the commercial rights of our wronged citizens will be vindicated that is not the chief idea of the war It is the rescue of hundreds of thousands of from starvation maltreatment A friend who went out under time Hag of the Red Cross two years ago to assuage the suffering in Armenia and who has ben on time same mission the same flag in Cuba says that the suffering in Armenia were a comedy and a farce compared to come on and remember by what process their occupants died It is the twentieth century dying out to have been blasted Or will you let me begin unThr new auspices and turn the island of desolation into an island Edenic It is a war inspired which is an attribute in man im itative of the same attribute of God In no other age of time world could such a war have been waged The of kindness needed to bj recog nized throughout Christendom in tIme European nations are not now banded together against us is because they dare not take the part of that be hemoth of cruelty the Spanish against the crusade of mercy is andmultiform under CubaAt passdown by mercy gospel possible which our nation has sturted hail it government been on our part a war of conquest a war of annexation a war of aggran dizement there would have been by this time enough Hying squadrons com ing to this country across time Atlantic to throw into panic every city on our American seaboard Time wars of the Crusaders were onh to regain an empty sepulcher the wars with their 0000000 slaughtered men were projected and carried out to appease the ambition of wars under Julius Caesar of the ISJ 000000 slain in wars with Turk and Saracens of the 59 000000 slain m wars of Xerxes of the 20000000 slain in wars of Justinian and the 32000000 slain in the wars of Genghis Khan not one man was sacrificed by mercy butt in this war every drummer boy or picket or gunner 01 standard bearer or skirmisher or sharpshooter or cavalryman or artil leryman or engineer who falls falls in the cause of mercy and becomes a martyr for God and his country An other alleviation of this war is that it is for the advancement of the Jewish Napoleonic sif lime priieiple of which will yt

filets the people The liberty of all atioits transatlantic as well as cisat lantic if not already establish nl is on time way null it can not be stopped Napoleon III thought he had sue cessfully

ISrother Not having been able to die in the midst of ni3 troops it only remains for me to place my sword in your majestys hands 1 am Your your good brother Napoleon Sedan 1 Septi 1STO That mon archy having fallen then the French republic resumed its march Another iftluviation is that the war opens with a great victory for the United States It took our govern meat four years to get over the fiasco at lull Ilui A defeat at the start of this resent war woull have been dis heartening to the last degree anl would have invited foreign to stop tIle war bfore anything practical for Gotl and humanity had been accomplished and would have prolonged time strife for which we rite hoping a quick termination In the most jubilant manner let this of our navy Le celebrated With the story of the exploded

followed him let the whole nation utter its most huzza and more than that let us thank time Lord of hosts for his guiding and protecting power Praise 3e the Lord Let everything that hath breath Another alleviation is the fact that in this war the migfit is on the side of the right Again and again have and justice and suffering human ity had time odds against them It was so when I nhidads Syrian hosts who were in the wrong at Aphcck upon the small of Israel who were in the right the IJible put ting it in one of those graphic for which the book is The children of Israel pitched before them like two little Hocks of kids lInt time Syrians filled time whole country It was so in the awful defeat of the Lords people vt Gilboa and Megiddo It was so recent ly when gallant and glorious Greece was in conflict with gigantic Moham medanism and the navies of Europe hovering about the ISosporus were in practical protection of the Turkish government fivsh from the slaughter of 100000 Armenians It was so when in 1770 the 13 colonies with no war shipping audi a few tindrilled and poor lyclad soldiers were brought into with the mightiest navy of all the earth and an army that commanded the admiration of nations It was so when Poland was crushed It was so when Hungary went under It has been so duringall the struggles for Cuban indepond nee Hut now it is 1 is Dewey resounding praise time Lori liberty cam sentences remarkable contest heretofore OUt regimu mitt against a feeble grou of incom petent ships crawling micros the Atlantic ocean to meet our flotilla which have enough guns to send them as completely under as when the lied sea submerge Pharaohs army It is so in these times when a few thousand Spaniards at most can reach out hemisphere and we go out to meet them with 125000 armed men to be backed up s eedily with 5JO000 more if needed We do not have to ask miracle hut only a fait shot at time ships headed this and time enough to demolish tlum This is one of time crises in the worlds history where might and right are shoulder to shoulder Another alcviation is in the fact that such an atrocity as tim destruc tion of 2GG lives in Havana harbor in time of peace can not with impunity be wrought in this age of time worlds civilization The question as to who did that infernalism is too well settled to need any further discussion Hut what a small it was compared with the systematic putting in to their graves of hundreds of thousands of Cubans or leav ing them unburied for the buz zards to take care of If could destroy 200000 men women and chil dren time slaughter of 205 people was not a very great undertaking But Spain from this hemisphere and the overthrow of that government which will soon drop to nieces if it does not emily form way crime Spain theliberation go down under bombardment of nations There was danger that the longcon tinued oppression of our neighbors in Cuba might be continued from genera Con to generation without sutlicicnt protest on our part and the pronounced execration of people on both sides c the Atlantic but that bursting vol cano of destruction in the harbor of Havana fired the nation and shocked the whole civilized world All nations will learn that such an let can not be repeated without the anathema of ill Christendom As individual crim inals must be punished for the public good and we have for them hangman gallows so governments committing high crimjs against humanity must scourged and hung up for the ing after our commercial interests and intending nothing but quietude was prayer were dashed into the insulted penitentiaries Godand b Spanish onboardl f tar nal worl1 t o doom of tii3 reigning house of Spain was pronounced in tones of thunder which that night rolled out OVIT th sea Another alleviation is the fact thatwe immure a God to go to in bihalf of all titus of our countrymen who may be in especial expcsare at the front for we must admit the perils It is no truIng thing for 100000 3onng moil to be put outside of home and sometimes into evil Many of time brave of the earth are not the goo1 of the earth To be in the samj tout with those who have no regard for Gol or
