WHEN flies become troublesome in a house they pan always be expelled by a very simple mixture. A half teaspoon- ful of black pepper, finely ground, should be mixed with double the quantity of brown sugar, and the compound be moistened with cream. The flies will gen­ erally eat greedily of this ^roixture if placed where they can get it, but it will be their last meal, for the least taste of it is to a fly rank poison. . THE Geneseo News gets off the follow­ ing: A farmer near Green River Station \yas making the morning family prayer in the kitchen in the place of the sitting room, the morning being chilly and damp. His eyes were rolling reverently heavenward wheu he suddenly branched off with "there's that goldarned sythe- stone that I've hunted the premises over for, stickin' in the raf ter next the eh imbly, forevermore, amen!" AN exchange says that the Methodist Conference at Aurora developed this queer idea that if the World's Fair is kept open on Sunday it will be a sin to attend it any day in the week. All the railroads at Aurora run trains on Sun­ day, and "by the same token" it is a sin to ride on them any day in the week.

"'V- A ifanraw Dming the thunder storm of Tuesday afternoon Jacob Hauprish and Walter Wright, who are at workforW. A.Cristy, together with the two young sons of Mr. Cristy, had a narrow escape from death by lightning. They were out with a horse and buggy south of this village, and as the rain commenced took shelter under a large tree near by. Lightning struck the tree and Haupri«h, one of the boys and the horse were knocked sense­ less and Wright knocked down. Young Cristy was considerably burned about hie neck and down his side and leg, while Hauprish was burned more or less on side and arm, but no serious result is an­ ticipated to either. It certainly was a very narrow escape, and an experience that none of them would care to go ^through again.

THE Elgin Every Sa turday says: "Died, suddenly, at West Point, of heart trouble, Mary, daughter of C. B. Curtis, of Spring awetst, June 9, aged 16 years. She had gone to West Point with a party of friends to attend commencement exer­ cises and was taken suddenly ill Thurs­ day in the night and died next morning. She was an only child and her parents are crushed by the suddon blow. She was one of the brightest of the academy pupils and was much beloved by a large circle of friends. The funeral was very large, her schoolmates attending in a body." Ohioftffo, the Fair and the Fire. One of the most remarkable facts no- ticable among the Great influx of visitors to the Fair is their keen interest in the great city, her past history and present wonderful growth, and the marvelous re­ building that has taken place since Chi­ cago was swept away by the flames of the fire ot 1871. This is nowhere more manifest than at the Cyclorama of the CHICAGO FIRE, Michigan Avenue and Madison Street, where the beautiful effects that the artiBts have secured in painting the great conflagration are like nothing ever yet shown in cycloramic work; --the burning embers, hurled through the air by the hurricane that was blowing on that memorable October day, the toppling walls, portions of which are shown in mid air, blown there by an explosion of giant powder, clouds of ruddy hue, tinted by the flames, the shadows of which are dancing on the doomed buildings--all so realistic as to be startling in their effect, and one can almost imagine the work of destruction to be at the moment going on. The visitor to ^hicago will find this one of the most interesting exhibitions in the city. . Announcement. . Mrs. Chas.

Children's Day was observed hers Sun­ day, June 18, in the M. E. Church, in a most interesting and appropriate man­ ner. The program was Columbia's de­ fenses. The preparations were most elaborate, the church being decorated with flags and bunting, beautifully ar­ ranged in every part of the room. Flowers were also profuse and alto­ gether the arrangements excelled any­ thing ever before made here. There were between 30 and 40 young ladies and gen­ tlemen who took a part, and they are entitled to the approbation of all, for the excellent manner they performed thfir several parts and those who made the preparations, who did the decorating, trained the children and young people, and who did so much to make the occa­ sion one of more than ordinary interest, are entitled to special mention. While all done much in this way it is always necessary for some one to take the lead and have the responsibility of these en­ tertainments. M?te, Jennie Hartman, who has always taken an active part in everything pertaining to church enter­ tainment, and is acknowledged as the leader in all such arrangements, had the management largely of this children's day exercises, assisted by a number of ladies and young gentlemen. The enter­ tainment was evidently appreciated by all present, and the children enjoyed it very uiuch as was shown by tha they performed their parts. way A Singular Reunion. • romantic story in which a young lady who has been living nearBlacklick, Indiana county, is a prominent charac­ ter comes from Curwensville, Clearfield county. In the spring of 1870 Isaiah McDonald of Grampion Hills, Clearfield county, married a young lady from Michigan. After a few short months of wedded life the young man got into trouble. A separation followed, and the young wife returned to her western home. A short time afterward a daughter was born. The mother's death followed swiftly on this event, and the child was taken in charge by its grandparents. It was years before the father knew he had a daughter. After discovering it he spent a great deal of money in a fruitless endeavor to locate her. About the beginning of last March the daughter, now a young lady of 22 years, learned of her father's residence. She wrote to him, giving her address as Blacklick, Indiana county. The father was overwhelmed with joy and wrote, giving undeniable proofs of his relation­ ship. Arrangements were made for a meet­ ing. Father and daughter met at Cur­ wensville, and an affecting scene fol­ lowed. They are now living together at Grampion. The girl is described as fine looking. She has been reared tenderly and possesses a good education. --Indiana Gazette. T f Commencement Days. Commencement days are with us once again. Along the streets go closed car­ riages, through the drawn curtains of which one catches glimpses of smiling young faces, dainty diaphanous gowns and a veritable forest of blooming flow­ ers. In all the colleges and seminaries parents and friends are gathering to wit­ ness the graduation exercises of those in whom they arc interested, and to the fair participant the day if one that marks a new era in their lives. As we look upon such sights, how viv­ idly our own commencement day comes back and with it all the hope and prom­ ise of the future that was budding in our breast that day! School days over, our greatest troubles left behind be­ tween the closed covers of "Virgil" and "Sallust," we looked forward to days of no more study as to a dream of bliss about to be realized. - Dear graduates, you wilH&nd, as we have done, that there are lessons to be learned after the college doors have banged to behind your retreating forms, and the great halls cease to echo to your wonted footsteps.
