tall and sowed it in timothy, intending
to make a meadow of it. Tbe voluu
tear wheat came up pretty thick and
looked almost as well as It it bad been
regularly seeded. It was left to grow
and at harvest time this year, was cut
and shocked. It wai threshed la it

FATAL LIOHTNINO.
A Ion of Capl. Alloa leiltn'ly Kills sn Mrs.
AIISK SIMMS.
On Sunday evening last, during the
storm, a bolt of lightning struck the
residence of Capt. Allen, who lives
one mile west of St Cloud Springs, in
stantly killing his son, a lad about 12
yean old, and also prostrating both
Mr. Allen and his wife. The bolt
struck the cone of the house near a
flue and divided, one prong passing
west out through the roof the other
passing cast, betwen root and ceiling
to a porch, striking a post near whicb
the boy waa standing, taking a drink
of water. He was killed lnstantly,and
Mrs. Allen, who was washing dishes,
only about three feet from him was
stunned into Insensibility. Mr. Allen
was also knocked down, but soon re
covered. The three were the only oc
cupant! of the porch. Mrs. Allen was
still in a critical condition when last
heard from. Tbe dead boy bad several
wounds ou tbe left breast, leaving the
impression that the electric fluid pass
ed into bis system with tbe water be
was drinking and passed out through
his breast, directly from the stomach.
The dead boy had been lying down on
a pallet In the bouse, and feeling
thirsty, bad arisen, and gone to the
porch for water. Had he delayed a
moment, no doubt his life would have
been spared, ills remains were buried
at Todd's Chapel, on Sunday.
Mr. Allen came here about two years
ago, from Carrollton, where he had
oeen City Marshal, and purchased tbe
farm where the fatal stroke occurred.
He has never been satisfied, and bad
recently sold out with tbe intention of
going elsewhere. Fatal accidents
from lightning seem to be on the In
crease. E. T. Dorton has moved to Kansas
City from this place. Sorry to see him
go as be is a worthy man.

80 feet Tbese gentlemen are first olass
workmen and will do an excellent job.
The contract for tbe additions to the
school building was not let out last
Friday as advertised. As usual the
matter has been bungled again. One
party was allowed to monopolize tbe
plans and specifications so tbat others
who deiired to bid, could not see them
On this account the matter had to be
postponed to give all aihow at it Per
haps the building will be erected in
time for tbe next generation.

In any oounty In the Northwest, they
ought to feel very thankful. He snys
from Information that he has learned
that very little corn will be raised In
either Bucbanon, Platte, or any ot tbe
counties north of St Joe.aud that Kan

crops. Also that their pastures are
burned up and are feeding ail their

Capt John Brown, of Aullville, has
been in town several days this week.
He says the stock law is becoming very
unpopular in his neighborhood, that
as the roads can no longer be grazed
they are growing up In weeds,and that
as a person rides through the country
thinks every farm he sees must belong
to a widow woman. He thinks tbe
restraining of the bogs will do.but that
the putting up of cattle, horses, etc,
does mora barm than good.

PREACHER'S VIEWS.
whal Rev. J. A. Uuarlet Think, About Pro
hibition.
Hev. J. A. Quarles, formerly of Lex
ington, but who uow resides elsewhere
location not af.atrnl. has written aevupla
of letters to the Lexington Intelligen
cer from which we take tbe liberty of
printing two extracts, not that we ex
actly endorse what he says, yet bis po
sitlon is sound aud bis argumeuts
tenable :
Allow me to any that I have no fan
atical or uuciiurltable views on the
question. 1 believe that Christ made
aud drank wiue tbat waa fermented
aud was lntoxicable. 1 believe that
such wine waa used at the Institution
of the Lord's Supper and should be
still usea. i neneve that many a good
man has used and still uses alcoholic
liquors as a beverage. I believe tbat for
medical purposes tiiey are frequently
benellciaL 1 believethat a large num
ber of those who drink such liquors
habitually do so without any damage
to themselves, I believe tbat many
persons wbo sell liquor are good men
kind neighbors, law-abiding citizens. 1
have known a few whom 1 thought
sincere Christians. I have no sympa
thy with the abuse of liquor drinkers.
i nave no ngni sua no desire to judge
those who differ from me on tins mut
ter. Moreover, iu the event of prohi-
uiliuu, i lttvor re-ipiuursing an mose
who have made permanent Invest
ments in breweries aud distilleries for
tbelr losses.
But 1 am a prohibitionist. I believe
in fotbiding the manufacture of alco
bolio dilnks by private parties alto
gether. I believe that men should not
be alloweu to sell them at all for pri
vate gain. It Is all settled in my mind
by this fact that a large number of
men, who would otherwise be good and
useiui memoers or society, are ruined
by these liquors. These men are Doa-
seesed of weak wills aud dominant ap
petites. They cannot resist the temp
tation if it Is in their way. Tbelr only
safety is in complete separation from
all intoxicants. To save these men, we
must either cotidne them or else we
must banish the temptation out of so
ciety. There are many objections to
to the first or these alternatives. We
are thus shut up to the latter.
It is not strange that the
friends of temperance do not agree as
to the best means for securing the end
In view. We differ on other subjects
wny nos ou mis r
The most seiious drawback to the
caiiBh of true temperance is the tn
temiierauce of ltd advocates. The evils
of drink are so great and so many tbat
they snem to. oruu .tbnaa wbo give
them earnest attention. Theu they
mix it up with woman's suffrage and
other abominations, ho that a man dis
likes to be found in their oompany.
I believe lint universal prohibition
is tbe moat eliicient expedient for less
eulug the evils of drink, as they can
not be entirely eradicated. Sincerely
your friend. J. A. Quables.
