To programme lor the Y. M. 8.
C., entertainment to-night will be
as interesting as usual.
Tana will be a Schuetsen (est
at Zionsville on Sunday next.
See advertisement elsewhere.
Monday is always a dull day—
there was a fair amount of cotton
brought in, but trade was none too
lively. |t.
Durham needs the Brazos Va£
ley railway, and also a line run-
ning in tho direction of LaGrange
and Columbus.
■ SO1 '
Cottoh.—The market was a little
stronger yesterday but without any
advanooin prices; good middling
it quoted at 8 6-8 cents.
Lao BaoKSW.—A son of Mr. Wo-
lenta, residing at Latium, was
kicked by a horse at the fest last
Sunday, breaking his leg above
the ankle.
Cotton wobms are not as general
in Uio county as was supposed and
on some farms a protty fair top
crop of cotton will yet be made—if
the worms stay away.
Gulf fish are very scarce in this
market; the fishermen at Galvos-
ton and other points are unable
to catch more than enough to sup-
ply the local demand.
Ths storms or swarms of candle
bags that for three nighls wore so
annoying tailed to appear on Mon
day night; candle bugs wero
scarcer than usual.
Muhstbbis.—On Thursday at the
opera house will open for the first
regular performance of tho soason
with Mclntyre* Heath's minstrels
The Canton, O., Repository, Aug
2,1886 says:
The minstrel performance a
Schaefer's Opera House Saturday
evening was witnessed by a good
audience and was, as anticipated,
an excellent entertainment. The
names of Barlow, Armstrong,
Ward, Howard, Speley, Russell,
Taibert and Gulick were a guaran-
tee, and expectation was realized.
The company will doubtless give
another successful exhibition at
Massillon this evening.
_ _
Tubnib's Fist.—The West Mill
creek Turn Yerein had their an-
nual fest at their grounds near La-
tium on Snnday last. About three
hundred persons Were in attend-
ance during the day and fully as
large a number at night. During
the after#! >on there was prize turn,
ing. Mr. von Bieberstein carry-
ing off the first prize. The Bren-
hsm Progressive band, 14 pieces,
waa on the ground during the day
and furnished some excellent mus-
ic ; at night they played for the
ball. Bretbam was well repre-
sented on the ground. Candidates
were oat in force, the People's
ticket and the alleged Republican
ticket were both represented and
the sovereigns present were treated
to private trlks and beer by the
several candidates, the political
complexion of (ho candidate hav-
ing seemingly no influence on the
beer. There was no public speak*
ing and the best of order and good
feeling was maintained tbrough-
outtbe day and at night. After
dark the dance commenced and
was kept up till JJie small hours
> in the morning.

An interesting calculation has
been made by tho New York Times,
showing how tho steady and rapid
paymont of the public debt incur-
•ea in the war for the preserva-
tion of tho Union, combined with
the reduction of tho interost rate
and the increase of the population
of the country, has affectod tho
debt burden borne by our people
>er capita. In 18o5 tbo debt
amounted, to $78.26 per capita.
Last year It amounted to only $24-
14. In 1806 the per capita portion
of the annual interest oharge was
$4.39. Last your It was but eighty
three cents. The ratio of Che prin-
cipal is now but two-thirds what
it ilten was; that of the annual in
tetwst is but a little moro than one-
fifth. t|
A Georgia paper prints a ro-
markablo obituary notice of an old
negro who died near Lumpkin re
cently: It says: "This old man
was a former slave of J. A. B.
Ward aud lived with the Ward
family nearly fifty yoars. He was
never heard to swear an oath, was
never accuSod of lying or theft,
never bad a whipping during slav-
ery, nor was ho known to take a
drink of whiskey. He was always
faithful and obedient, peaceablo
and reliable. He and his wifo had
sixteen children, and they lived to
seo 120 descendants, who are now
living.
Colorado has 800 miles of first
class irrigating canals, 3500 miles
of secondary canals and 40,000
miles of smaller ditchos, which
haveoost in the aggregate about
$11,000,000, and will irrigate 2,-
200,000 acres.
