Prof. 8. J. Cokiuoan, of the Qood
soli Observatory, lias scooped the
other astronomers. He has recently
discovered that the sun is forming
new planet which will sooner or later
be hurled into space, causing great
disturbances and perhaps the total
destruction of all animal life 011 some
of the other planets should
it happen to collido with one of I hem,
Territorial Squibs.
The adjacent Creek country is full
of human skeletons, mostly those ot
Indians. It is a common thing to
see a pair of feet or an arm protrad*
ing from some knoll or pita ot stoue.
These graves are jealously guarded
by the live relatives of thj defunct
Indians, and some ot them are said
to contain considerable treasure; as
an old custom among Indians is to
bury with the deceased a large por-
tion of his earthly possessions. A
yrhite man who lingers long in the
vicinity of these graves, or dead
houses, is almost sure to be confront-
ed by an Indian, who will signal for
him to depart ip a manner that is
unmistakable.
A Justice of the Peace in one of
our neighboring townships, found
himself in 9 very embarrassing posi«
tion a few days ago. During the
campaign he had announced that the
only fees he would demand from the
first couple he married would be to
kiss the bride. I* or some reason
Cupid has been very inactive in that
neighborhood and tho matter of col-
lecting tees from the ruby lips of the
blushing bride was almost entirely
forgotten. A day oj so ago a big,
black negro, accompanied by a
wench of like proportion and ebony
hue, called on said Justice and ask*
ed him to marry them. After the
ceremony had been performed, the
bride, who seemed to be spokesman
of the charming duette, spoke up
and said:
"We's de fust couple you's eber
rmarried, ain't we Squire.'v
The Justice unthoughtedly answer-
ed in the affirmative.
The wench, without further cere-
mony, caught tho surprised Justice
in a pair of arms from which there
was no escape, and with lips that rr*
sembled two huge slices of water-
melon, gave bim a rousing smack
which couid be heard all over the
premises.
The Justice first felt angry and
thought of fining the wt-nch for con-
tempt; but wisely took a tumble and
ttl^o^sd the couple to depart in
peace, and is now hoping that his
twitt)Bg friends may soon forget the
occurrence.
There is great rejoicing among
the Indians living on Snake creek ,
in the creek nation. A few days ago,
Running Buck, one of the tribe, dis-
covered and killed a two-heade^
rattlesnake. Tradition states that
years ago, when this tribe were en-
gaged in bitter war-fare with another,
'ribe and fate seemed against them
one of the braves found a similar
snake, killed it and brought it to'
camp. The wise men, after examin-
ing the dead reptile, decided '(hat'
the slaying of this double-headed
enemy of mankind was an omen of
good luck and presaged success tor
them in their present strife. They
then attacked the enemy with renew
ed courage and w ere victorious.
The killing of this scoopd tpake!
freak by one of their tribe is greeted
with great religious enthusiasm, and
Running Buck is looked upon as one
chosen by the Great Spirit to lead
this remnant of a once powerful tribe
back into the paths of glory and
grestness,

The ice-cream supper given by
the Methodist people on last Satur-
day evening, was a highly appreciat
ed and stycceflotul affair. Ihere
were about two bundled persons
present and all enjoyed the occasion
very much. The lyone Oak Band
were out in full force and plaved
several very fine selections.

suggest that some provision be made
for holding it In a grovo instead of
the school house, as tho house, commo-
dious as it is, cannot accommodate
one-half of tho Sunday school admir-
ers of this vicinity, which fact wan
demonstrated at the last convention.
