2 EVERLASTING FIRE. Iloiv tlio Parson Lost His Klondike Flock, "It appears to me," remarked the Rev. Mr. Tender Foote to one of his parishioners, "that there has been a sudden falling off in the attendance at our of worship. Have you any idea as to what may be the cause of this defection?" "Wal, parson," replied Chikoot Charlie, the person to whom these re marks were addressed. "I reckon I could make a purty close guess at the reason why the boys hev quit goin' to church. The fact 16 I don't think yer hit It jest right in yer sermon Sunday afore last." indeed!" exclaimed the dominie. "I rather prided myself upon that sermon, l-aihre prided myself upon that sermon. What fault do they find with it? Was it not orthodox?" "You've got me thar, parson. Not boln' a connosoor in seeh things, I hain't exactly say whether it wuz or- Ihydox er homepath, but anyway it SHUCK me ez not beln' pertickler well' suited to thcr needs of this here com munity." "All, I see. I presume I failed to clothe my thoughts iu sufficiently sim ple language." "No, that wasn't the trouble, par son. The boys ain't so slow but what they kin savvy most any kind of talk, even tf they air a lettle ltecrle6s about their own langwidge; but that sermon cZ yourn wasn't exactly the kind that would make 'em want ter fuller the straight an' narrow path, if you'll ex cuse me ter belli' so free. Ye see, yer laid It on purty thick about the Noo Jeiulalcm bein' paved with gold an' a!! that, an' then ye went on ter say that the other place wuz full of ever lastin' lire." "But surely there is nothing wrcng in that." "Mebbe not, parson, mebbe not. I don't say but what that kind of talk might ketch the people in the States, but up here in the Klondike coun try it's different. I licerd some of the boys sayin' after the sermon that if it come to a choice between gold pave ments an' everlasting' fire they'd take the fire ev'ry time. An' ye kain't blame 'em neither, considerin' that the ther mometer is down to fifty below zero an' still a droppin' . " A Klondike ICiilsode. Frcst-Bitten Pete was lounging in a corner of the bar of the Glazier House, taking no interest in the jollification that was in progress. A tenderfoot who I had just eoin6 shivering over the trail was being warmed up by a gang of choice spirits who kept him busy danc ing and swallowing chunks of frozen rhiskey. As the new-comer warmed up and the deadly-liquor began to thaw he became desperate, and with a quick twist of his hand whipped a revolver front his pocket. It was as pretty a 22-calll>re revolver as was ever seen on ! the Klondike. With a blood-curdling roar Frost- : Bitten Pete jumped into the crowd audi i caught the tenderfoot by the wrist. | "Gimme that!" he said grasping at the enamelled toy. The startled tenderfoot made no re sistance. "Here," said the burly desperado, handing over a small repeating cannon that he drew from his belt; "don't ay that I disarmed you. If you wajii* to mix with these gentlemen go on. I just want the loan of this little thing until to-morrow morning, for Ava lanche Sail has agreed to accept a pair of earrings I have made for her if I will pierce her ears for her, and I think this little thing will do the trick toi perfection." This public aonfession that he was in love accounted for his quietness during the first part pf the jollification, and as >he tendering was quick-witted e nough to ask all handß to drink to the pros pective bride, what might have been a tragedy ended in a glorious drunk.— Journal. Wants Ilia Leg Hack. After thirty years of hobbling about the world on crutches, General Daniel 13. Sickles is about to petition the Gov ernment he fought for to give back to hiiu his leg. He lost it in "Bloody Angle," at Get tysburg. It found its way by devious •ways into the Army Museum at Wash ington. Blackened with the erosion of years, stripped ti'wn to th e bare and shatter ed bones, it hangs on two brass rods, cheek by jowl with the articulated skeleton of a walrus. Here every year the old General seeks it out, gazing dumbly at it, with an un utteraole longing to have it buried, as the dead past which it represents is buried. "It is my leg," the old hero argues, "and it belong! to me now just as much as it did when my battaliDn went into action on the second day of Gettys burg." <3 There Is no label upon the leg of the Major General to blazon these facts to the public, for, as a matter of fact, the Army Medical Museum at Washington t> es not encourage amateur investiga tion into either its records or its speci men cases. The leg has no place of special prominence. It is simply in the "shot fracture" case with a lot of oth ers. and only its size and character dis tinguish it. But General Sickles knows | that it is his, and, whether from senti \ . ment or superstition, he wants it. He will, it is said, petition Congress to re- I store the member, if the museum au thorities continue to hold it against his will. Too Grand for 111- Taste. After the failure of Be Grand B.

PAT AND TH*i ADMIRAL Or Uov a Situation Win Saved by Irlsli Wit. A strict rule promulgated by every successive commandant at the Navy Yard prohibits smoking on Mare Island under the moat stringent penalties. Admiral Miller, sauntering one recent afternoon through a distant part of the island, says the San Francisco Wave, came upon an Irish Laborer digging a trench, and smoking a short, blacn pipe* He was puffing away serenely, 1 unconscious of the regulations and with ev.dent enjoymcut. The Admiral, who was in undress uniform, slopped. "iJon't you know, sir, that smoking is absolutely prohibited in tlie Navy Yard?" he said. The Irishman looked up and, with a kindly smile, answered: "In'dade, that's true, but here am I i all be meself. wid not a sowl to say a I wurrud to, and I thought I'd take a puff or two to re'ave the silence." "The regulations are explicit, sir," | rebuked the Admiral, "and the silence i does not excuse you. What's your j name, s'r?" "An' who may you be, anyway?" ask- ; cd the Irishman. "I'm Admiral Miller." "Ah, 'tis the new Armiral y e are. . 'Tis the fat job ye have, Admiral. Bci, careful to kape it. Me name's Pat Mc- j Ginuis." ' Heport at my ofilce this afternoon w' hi.ut fail, McGinnis," said Miller, who could hardly keep from laughing, j At five o'clock poor Patrick, who had made up his mind there would be the devil to pay, tramped over to headquar ters, and the orderly ushered him into the dreaded presence of the Admiral, who "aid: "Sit down, Pat." Pat eat down. Miller touched a bell. Th? orderly appeared. "Bring a bottle of champagne and two glasses," he said. Not a word was spoken until the wine arrived. The Admiral filled the two glasses and pushed one over to ward the Irishman. "Pat," he said, "give mo the pipe. You'll not need it again." j The mystified laborer obeyed. "Now," said the Admiral, "drink hearty, Pat, but you'll keep your job as long as I'll keep mine." Nor is this the first situation saved by Irish wit. i Tim thuiiiplmi Snorer. iL, !

James, during his boyhood days,"Whs what is termed a clever "sidewalk com edian"—that is, he was a great enter tainer and jolly good fellow among his associates. About twelve years ago the idea of amateur nights at the museums, then in their prime, was suggested, and many who had, and many who hadn't, 1 talent were induced to make an appear ance on the museum stage. Cook got i mixed up with one of these assemblages one night, and as he could dance and sing a bit and tell what he thought were funny stories, he decided to give himself a trial. Manager Frank Drew, who on these occasions was more par ticular to secure bad talent, and the worse the better, than he was to have good, readily consented to Mr. Cook's proposition. The act was so bad it was funny, but Mr. Cook thought it was all | right, for alter that he insisted upon gt- , ing on at every performance, there being ' ten or each day. To this ar rangemcnftlr. Drew seriously objected, | but the objection cut no ice with Jim- | my. He went on just the same, and I kept doing so, until he became a per- \ feet pest about the museum; so much 1 EO, in fact, that Mr. Drew was finally J obliged to hire an extra man to keep ' him off the stage. This was twelve : years ago and it is quite different now. i Mr. Drew has to salaam to Mr. Cook in I order to keep him on the stage, and the | green boy with the bad act is one of the leading comedians of the day. Hired Him Over Again. ' The following story from the St. Louts Globe Democrat illustrates sev eral things: When J. W. Sherwood, now general 1 snperintendend of the Clover Leaf, was j superintendent of the Big Four, he had j to discharge a brakeman for violation | of rules. The man hung about the of- j iice, asking for a letter of recommenda tion. To get rid of him, Mr. Sherwood | told W. A. Sullivan, who was his chief clerk, to write the letter. This Mr. Sul livan did. The man went out, and re turned in halt an hour. "What's the matter now?" asked Mr. Sherwood. "That letter you gave me Is all right, isn't it?" "Of course It Is. That ought to gel you a job anywhere." "Well, I wish you would read this letter of recommendation I've got, Mr Sherwood, and give me a Job.', Sherwiood took the letter on which his own name was hardly dry, road it carefully, and remarked: "I am well acquainted with Sher-, wood, and any one he recommends must be all right. You report to the , trainmaster, and tell him to put.you tc . work." ' ;""l THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. | WHISTLED ANNIE LAURIE. ' He Tkeu Proceeded to Clean Out the Clinic.

He is known | as a daring and skillful operator, and : has achieved reputation by his contri i buttons to medical journals on abdom inal surgery. Those who know the doc j xcr say he is as brave ordinarily as j Julius CeaEhr. Yet, like the Styx-dip ped Achilles, he has a vulnerable spot. The story told on the general surgeon I come from his ho<mc, Clncinati. He ! was invited by a fellow physic,an to be present at a peculiarly difficult demon j stration. Rr. Rlcketts was late in ar i riving, and was forced to take a posi- I tlon on the outer edge of the circle of j doctors and students. Nothing had I been said about the condition of the 1 subject, and he supposed it was a cad | aver. The figure was that of a giant) Teuton, and to all appearances was per ! fectly rigid. Not a muscle stirred and j no breathing was perceptible. | The location of the operation was I exposed, and the operator, grasping j his knife, advanced to the patient. As J the cold steel touched the flesh, a startl ! ing thing happened. From beneath tho ' flaxen mustache of the form on tho ; table the familiar notes of "Annio i Laurie," whistled clearly distinctly. ' The effect on the company was electri cal. The operating surgeon's knife fell : with a rattle to the floor, the students ; rushed for the door, and the older phy sicians 6tood transttxed with amaze ment. Clear and sweet came the notes of the old song, even to the last bar. Then the tune was switched to "Die Waeht am Rhein." By the time this | was completed the room was empty of ! students, but the veteran physicians remained at their posts. Suddenly the ' subject sat up. As he gazed over the row. of white-aproned figures a wild light sprang into his eyes. With a yell he leaped from the table, and dealt the nearest physician a stunning blow in the face; then he attacked the others. Chairs, table 3 hook cases were demol ished. j The physicians got outside and wait ed the cooling of the German's pass.on. Gradually be became calmer until at last he sank exhausted in a chair. The medical men advanced in a body aud demanded an explanation. The patient i could give none. For a time he was j crazy. Dr. R'.cketts was informed that the man had been under the influence | of an anaesthetic aud was asked to as sist in the operation. | The patient insisted that the work I go on, and chloroform was substituted I lor ether.

Everybody except Dr. Ricketts j 3ed 10 the stieet. A few moments later he too. had to seek refuge from the huge fist of the German, who was again on the rampage. After this second ; outbreak the demonstration was aban ! cloned. The strange consequences of | the anaesthetic were never satisfacto rily explained by the med.c.il fraternity, but to thi3 day Dr. Rlcketts cannot hear the strains of the old Scotch sing without quaking in his shoes and dodg ing imaginary blows.—St. Louis I'ost- Dispatch. Retrod Up for tlio Winter. Teachers in the public schools of a Ifrge city hear many stories, some of them amusing, some of them pathetic. A young woman who teaches in a kind ergarten in Boston, upon learning that one of her pupils was sick, went to visit her. The teacher had been to Katie's home before, and so had no difficulty in find ing the two little rooms at the top of a tenement house where Katie and her mother lived. The mother was absent, and Katie, well wrapped up, was sitting up in bed. After the usual inquiries and condo lences, the teacher noticed that the lit tle girl seemed to speak with some difficulty, and said: "Katie, I am going to examine your lungs." "Yes'm," responded the child , duti fully, and Miss C. began to loosen the child's waist. After removing it, shd found layer after layer of flannel, which she unfastened with some difficulty. Satisfying herself that there was no danger of pneumonia, she began to re place the child's dress, when Katie be gan to cry. "Mother'll be awful mad at you when che gets home and finds what you've done." "Why, Katie, what have I done?" "You've unfastened all my flannels, and ma had just got me sewed up for the winter."—Youth's Companion. Tlio Ulncovvry of Gold ' Measures are being taken to mako the parade of the golden Jubilee, cele brating the discovery of gold in Cali fornia, the finest pageant ever seen on this coast, says a correspondent in the New York Tribune. Prizes will be of fered for the most artistic floats, and every effort will be made to give a rea listic history of the state. All survivors of pioneer days will have places in tho procession, and there will be a liberal representation of cowboys, Mexican vaqueros, Indians and prospectors. Probably the generation will be a re production of an old emigrant train, with actual "prairie schooners" used by the pioneers, and with real Indians who formerly harassed the emigrants and attacked them when they were careless or weak in numbers. Another feature of the parade that will commend it, es pecially to tourists, is the Chinese di vision. The orientals will turn out in full force, and they promise to furnish a spectacle greater than ever been seen here on a Chinese New Year. A Moimtor Gun.

It is partiailarly appropriate in this age of active, nervous, endless labor. We are living too fast. " Fast as light ning," expresses it, for we talk by elec tricity, cook by electricity, travel by electricity and so on. Its a hurry, hurry, hurry from the cradle to the grave. We crowd too much ; crowd our work, crowd our eating, crowd our pleasure, crowd our sleeping. A " breaking down of the nervous sys tem " is the way of expressing the result. It means a depleting of the nerves in duced by prolonged strain ; overtaxing of the nervous system; a product of over hurry and bustle. It affects all people in all walks of life. It baffles physicians of all schools. No one knows the horrors of such a condition better than Rev. J. N. Mc- Cread/, of Elkton, Mich. For years he labored faithfully and well. He was pro gressive and aggressive; a leader among men, a deep thinker and a hard warker. In his zeal, he overworked; overtaxed his mental and physical strength. The outlook was dark, with health shat tered and recovery apparently hopeless. Many means for a cure were tried, with out receiving benefit. Finally he took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and was restored to health. He says: "In April, 1896, the physicians said I must stop preaching or die. " I had overtaxed myself and was suf fering from a complete breaking down of my nervous system and a persistent stom ach trouble. 11 | Si* SO ORUGGI3T3( ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED '££:! pie and booklet free.
