I OCT.......7 1867 A dispatcn from Kansas City, Mb'., says: 'The mayor of Ar gonia, Kan., to-day gave birth to a Gee boy. This is the first instance in the history of the world where the mayor of a city has made such a record. It is hardly necessarj to state ihnt thft mavor of Arfruma js a -aww w J Q f woman. She was elected last spring." , The Chicago News says minis ters are so scarce in Idaho that they have to be imported i many cases where people wisj). to get married. 1 rains are stop ped that they may be searched for ministers. - . 4 W Of the 49 delegates who sign ed the Confederate Constitution 37 are now dead. Of generals in the army Johnston and .Beau regard alone survive. Of the lieutenant generals 11 are dead, of the 100 major generals 55 are dead, and of the 480 briga diers over half are said to have passed over the river. Until he undertook his pres ent tour President Cleveland bad never been west of Cleve land. He has never been south of Richmond, north of the Adi rondack mountains or east of Boston He is the best Presi dent this country has had in many a day, nevertheless, and with least regard for sectional lines, and the people honor him and propose to re-elect him ac cordingly, says the News and Observer, As next year is the centenni al of Presbyterianism in the li nked States the trustees of Da' vidson suggest that the church, es and people connected with that institution endeavor to raise $100,000 as an additional endowment by way of a thank offering. The Willmington Messenger very truthfully bays: Keep yonr money at home. Patron ize them that p.itrpnize you. Spend your money among your home institutions, vyhere you stand a chance to get it back. Every dollar you spend with- a stranger is gone forever. Every dollar you spend with a home man may find its way back to your own pocket. Every dollar spent here goes -to help in build ing up our town. Figure the thing down fine and yon lose money by buying away from home if you can get the articles for one half what they cost you at home. ' Remember this and act accordingly. The bones of the discoverer of America are to be once more removed as if vhoy had not yet earned rest. . When -Columbus died. he first found a resting place at Yalladolid. Rut il was not for long. In seven years his remains were taken to Se ville and in 1536 - across the ocean to Hayti, where they were deposited in the cathedral of San Domingo. In 1795 it was thought to be high time that the bones of Columbus were disturbed again, and they weie taken to Havana in Cuba. Now after a further rest of 1 00 years, afresh transfer let us hope the last -is to be made, and Genoa, the . navigator's - birth placo, will finally claim its' own. -Chicago. Times, FRIDAY, J.
