Now comes along somebody that
has discovered what is termed mag

Mr. R G Blackwelder reports to
us that be has a number of peach
trees that have a second crop of
peaches this year. He says they are
about the siza of a mau'a thumb
and he thinks will mature well
enough to be eaten. The Stan
dard, would gettJy remind Mr.
Blackwelder that the "proof of
pudding is in chewing the bu " asd
we hope to be further impre-sed
with the, partiality of Nature in giv
ing him two crops of peaches while
many a fellow just as jovial as him
self got no crop at all. I ;

" The Standard Monday told, of
Slr. -I.ee Sapp's. unhappy experience
yith his dog. V The first impulse
under such circumstances is to kill
the dog. We hope Mr.; Sapp did not
Mil his. Under such circumstances
at is better to capture the - ?dog if
possible and see if hydrophobia
exists. If the dog lives " more than
nine or ten days i 1 yer had hydro
phobia and the bitten"- person can
ifeel safe, but if h ophobia deveN
oped in the dog and killed him, then
the bitten person may justly feel
some uneasiness and some unsafety,

fancy that we get in a few thoughts
today m the interests of Jscienc?,
though it may be difficult to discern
just where the science comes in in
the railroad collision. The, fatali
ties were surely not yery scientific,
The communication, we think, may
be classed as "right good reading."
We agree with the writer thiat when
railroad collisions are on hand it is
well to be as far away as possible.

The Discovery Saved His Life.
Mr. G. CaiUoutte, Druggist, at
Beaverville, 111,, says: To Df . King's
New Uiscovery I owe my life. AVas
taken with La Grippe and fried all
the physicians for miles about, but
of no avail and was given up" and
told I could iot live. Having Dr.
King's New Discovery in mystore I
sent, for a bottle and began its use
and from the first dose began, to
get 'better, and after using three
bottles was up and about again. It
is worth its weight in gold. We
won't keep store or hoase without
it. Get a free trial at Fetzer's

. strange Indeed.
An engineer on . the S A. L.j
whose 'veracity cannot; be doubted,
relates a strange coincident, whjcb
happened in this town last Monday.
He says he was walking along First
"street, and jtistliF be goi" oppo'sito
Capt; T F Anderson's residence; he
heard something fall j ust in; front
of him, and upon investigation, be
lound it was a brand new silver
quarter. He looked around and
not seeing any one near, tcould not
imagine where it came from. .
So you see, we are destined to
have free silver. If the American
people will not vote for us to have
it, it will fall from the skies.; Old
Hanna and all his gold cannot
keep it back. It's coming just as
sure as you are living. Weldon

the result : .

A. 400-Ponnd Cone of Gold Bullion.
A cone of gold bullion that
weighed 4,747 ounces was turned in
yesterday at the Assay Office in this
city. It came from the Caribou
Hydraulic mine in British Colum
bia, and was 12 J inches in height
and 9J inches across the base, in the
shape of the vessel in which it was
melted. Officials at the Assay
Office thought that it would assay
at least $18 an ounce, and said that
it was the largest chunk of gold they
had ever received. New York Sun.
