From Virginia to Texas,

substantial prosperity every
day. Its fertile fields yield hnr

horses in the world. Mortga
ges are extinct pests, and dis
possessions are as rare as
rocs on dodos. Texas is an
empire larger than France,
and only needs population
to be richer. Alabama would
make tne fortunes of half the
petty sovereigns in aei many

Why worry over the lucu
bralions of some far-off edi-
tor who writes with tpaselsin
his hair and is afraid to go
South for fear of getting run
ovpr by a cabbage van in
New York. Stay at horn;
raise props; anchor your
property, then branch out if
you will. Take a whirl in the
metropolis, sell a few gold
biieks to Wall Street, build a
palace at Newport or on the
Hudson and some day you'll

The war on the negro in In

publication of the names o f

The who'd neighborhood
two mile rast of Newton is
somewhat excited over a re
tnarkable snnke. It is a pop
pt-rheaH three foot and four
inrhe long, with two heads,
'he prongs ontamin the
beads are 11 incheslong.One
is a little larger than the
other, but. both are perfect,
and indicate that the snake
before it was killed, could
have used one mouth as well
astheother. Below the fork
it looked like any other cop
per head snake. This wonder
ful snake was killed Satur
day afternoon by y o u n g
John Moose, son of Mr. (10.
Moose, the blacksmith. 11
went for t he cows late in the
afternoon and took his gun
along to kill a rabbit. He
came across this snake. He
saw the two heads, each ol
which showed fight, were con
nected with the same body,
and shot to hit the snake at
the largest part of the body.
As soon as he had killed the
double headed snake, he look
od around and saw another
snake about the same-size,
but vith only one head, and
shot it.
The news of this curiosity
soon spread over the coun
try, and, and Mr. K. M.Trav
is tells us that the double
hpaded snake was seen Sun
day by at least a .hundred
people. Mewton Enterprise.
"Do not keep thealabaster
boxes of your love and ten
derness sealed up until your
friends are dead. Fill their
lives with sweenness. Speak
approving, cheering words
while their ears can hear
them and while their hearts
can be thrilled and made hop
pier by them. The kind t hings
you mean to say when they
are gone, say before they go.
The flowers you meant to
send for their funerals, st-nd
to brighten arid sweeten their
homes before they leave
them. If my Iriends hava ala
baster boxes laid away, full
ol fragrant perfumes of sym
pathyand affection, I would
rather they would bring
them' out in my weary and
troubled hours, and open
them lhat I may be rt freshed
and cheered while I need
them."
