BLOOMSBURO, PA. KENTUCKY ACS ED. THE REMARKABLE OLD WOMEN. MEN AND Tliry llnva Twelve TIioiihiuhI lt lnllr All Areil'ulli'il bjrTlielr Ulven NninnIn lh 1'rlin of Life mt Seventy-right An Apology. The most remarkable family In point of age In the United States lives, moves and run things In the Cumber land Mountains of Kentucky In Let cher county, to bo exact. Webb Is the ame of these old persons, whose num ber is six, and to whom every individ ual of the 12,000 population of the .county is directly or Indirectly related. Three old men there re, and three old women. Their father was the first eonsln of Daniel Iioone, and was, In addition, the earliest settlor In the ragged mountain region In which his descendants are now all powerful. They are all called by their given names, with the prefix "Uncle" or "Aunt," as the case may be. There Is Aunt Letty. She comes first by reason of her age, which is eighty-nine years. She Is growing rather appreciative of the burdens which come with advanc ed years, and she is not so spry as she hit been up to a few years ago. Then, too, the murder of ber son, Wiley W. Craft, a dozen years ago, has had much to do with al rig her. To Archibald Craft, her husband, she presented eleven pledges. Her grandchildren number ninety, her great-grandchildren sixty, and her great-great-grandchildren forty. After Aunt Letty comes Aunt Polly, who Is eighty-five years old In her own right, and who is growing old grace fully at the home of her son. She mar Tied a man named Adams, and ten hlldren were born. It was to visit her eldest daughter that Aunt Polly last year rode one hundred miles on horseback over the roughest of moun tain roads. She didn't mind this ex perience, so unusual for an octogenar ian, and remarked that the Webbs came of hardy stock. She has 110 grandchildren, and seventy great grandchildren and about forty great-great-grandchlldren. Jason Ib next In point of years, be ing eighty, and the moat prolific of the family. He doesn't know tho meaning ef Illness from any personal knowledge ef It, and he says he feels as fine as a yearling. Nineteen children Is the Tecord which makes him the proudest nan In Letcher county. These nine teen have obeyed the Scriptural Injunc tion and have multiplied to such an extent that the old gentleman has 175 jrandchlldren, 150 great-grandchildren and more than one hundred great-great-grandchildren. Ho is one of the two members of the aged six who have aver looked upon the landscape from a car window. It was two years ago that ho first ventured on the "kyars." and that was when be went on a visit to friends In Tennessee. Then there Is Uncle Miles, who con siders himself In the prime of life. Al though ho is seventy-eight years old, h rides his horse all over the rough aelgbborhood and Is apparently as un restrained In his movements as a youngster. With him, too, the storks hare been srenerous. and the children ef his children number 165. his great grandchildren count up to 150 and the last generation ninety. Aunt Sally, with seventy-five mile stones to her credit, runs around her home with as much agility as any of her grandchildren. She is a widow and does her own work, even to shoul dering a sack of corn and carrying It to the mill. She has thirteen children ighty grand chtldren. sixty-live great grandchildren, and more than creat-great-grandchlldren. Dfty'l Tho baby of tho family Is Uncle Wiley, who Is only seventy-three. His eleven children perpetuated the race to tho extent of seventy-five grandchil siren, and he has fifty great-grandcbll dron and thirty great-great-grandchildren. He apologizes for his compara tively small number of descendants ,y stating that his sons married late la life. A mix at Omilurraaii. Tho Arab mode of attack was quaint to a degree; formed In a line, each tribe advanced against a part of the Tillage. When about 500 yards from tho mud houses they halted and com Menced to dance, brandishing spears and swords In the air and firing off rifles. After a few moments they re sumed the advance, dancing and firing all the while (In the air) when sud denly, with a yell, they rushed at the houses, and, having effected an en trance, they slaughtered every one within. - A Cnntly lllbls.

If some line Morning they awake And find they're only cranks. S. O. C. THE HUSBAND'S JEALOUSY. She was only eighteen when Gilbert Amydon married her a biight-eyed little Uilng, with hair like gold, and a complexion like tho pink-and-wlilto of a conch shell. "Gil, you're a fool!" said his plain spoken uncle, who had money to leave, and comported hlnibelf In a propor tionately uncivil manner. "You're like all tho rest of tho worid Infatuated by a pretty face." "I confess, dear Gilbert, I am sur prised nt your choice," said bis cM erly maiden ulster, "after having told you tbut Sylvia Simnierton was In clined to look favorably upon your at tentionswhy, Sylvia has threo hun dred a year of her own." "I'm really afraid, Gilbert," said his mother, "that Florence is raincr young and Inexperienced." "She'll grow older, mother, saia tho bridegroom cheerily; "and there's plenty of experience to be had In this world, If one only lives long cnougn. And Gilbert Amydon and his pretty little wife were as happy as the day was long. Florence cried a little when her husband was obliged to go away on Important business connected with the firm in which ho was a partner. I uey hud been married only a few months. "I wiah I were going with you, Gil bert." said she; and Gilbert Amydon laughed and patted her rose-leaf cheek. Why, what should I oo with a lit tle scphyr of a creature like you? said he. "How would you endure trav eling all night and running about all day? No, no; you muBt stay at homo and keep house till I come back." So Gilbert Amydon went away. He had not been gone many weeks before a long and acrid letter from his maiden sltUer, Druailla, infused a bit ter element into the current or his re flections. "Florence is very well," wrote Miss Druailla, who, although by no meana cither fat or fair, was forty at least, and apparently very happy. She had friends to tea last night. Of course, I was not invited, although most inop portunely 1 called in, about the Dorcas Sewing Club, Just as they wero sitting down to tea. The MlBses Myrtle wero there, with their cousin, Major Dar rock is very bandsonio" theso words were underscored with two vicious dashes of the pen "and, judging from their conversation, Florence and he were old friends before she met you. I dare say It is all right Indeed, Flor- ence told me mat wneu sue inviieu the threo Myrtle girls she didn't know that Major Darrock had Just arrived on a visit to them. But, nevertheless, 1 hardly believe It is well to re-lgnlto the ashes of an old flirtation on the altar of an absent husband s heartn- otone. However, as 1 said before, Florence is very young, and can hard ly be expected to comprehend these things." Gilbert Amydon felt a sharp sting of latent Jealousy go through his heart as he read Ills sister's words, but pres ently he broke Into a smile, and toro up Miss Drusillas letter unceremoni ously into clgar-llghters. "They would shut her up in a nun- aery if they had their way, said he to aiinself. "Poor, dear llttio girl! she et have tome amusement." Uut Uncle t'rawley'B next letter was more vaguely annoying still. "I suppose you have heard from your wife about the fnncy masquerade ball," said ho. "The young folks are all wild about It. Your wlfo is to go as Rowena to Major Darrock's Ivanhoe. Tho costumes are to cost no end of money, I am told. When I was a young man people didn't squander their incomes in that sort of way. But I suppose If you are willing, it's not my business to object. Gilbert Amydon knit hlB brows and bit his Hp, as he read tho words that his Undo Crawley had penned with such malicious plessure. This was quite a different affair from the tea party to which Drusllla Amydon had taken exception. And for the first time In his life Gilbert felt In his heart a strong, surging tldo of anger toward the beautiful young wife whom he had promised at the altar to lovo and cherish. "If she Is really going to this ball," ho said to himself, "I don't know what the consequences will be. She knowf I hate bal-masques, and slie knows, too, that alio has no business to g( with that major fellow when I am sway. Drusllla was right she is too vniinor for a wife. I should have thought twice before I gave up lntc her hands such unbounded power tt sting and torture me. At all events, ) wont stay fcere to he made a fool or. I'll go back home, and Judge for mysell whether she Is losing all her common sense and discretion. He glanced nt his watch. "If I start at once," he thought, "1 can bo nt Dedlington on tho evening ol tho ball. And I'll do HV What a long, dreary rldo that was midnight Joltings through endless stretches of woods and meadow-lands and tunnela of echoing rock days when sleep and waking eeenicd oddly Jumbled together! And the ono per vading Idea that filled his brain was Florence, robed In pale blue silk with her golden hair dressed as In an old picture lie had onco seen of tho beauti ful Saxon Princess Kowena. And all the time his heart was as heavy as load within him. Florence, whom he had loved and trusted Florence, who had grown Into bis henrt ns the clinging Ivy makes Us way Into the erevleca of the gran ite rock Florence, whoso pure Inno cence and singleness of nature he had worshipped what would life be worth to hli.i If she should prove un true? Not that he feared any such misery no. he knew Florence too well for that but a plum with the bloom brushed off was no plum for him. he had told himself, with a hot, fevered anger throbbing through his brain; of what value were the smiles whoso sweetness was lavished liberally on ul alike? And as ho rode along, with folded arms and traveling cap drawn sullenly over bis eyes, GU'iert Amydon felt like one who was already bereaved. The house was dark as he ascended the sti-ps and opened tho door with his latchkey. "Gone!" ho said to himself, wiin bitter smile. "Gone! Well, I knew it. What else could I have expected? Sbo Is no loncor my sweet, homo-loving Florence, but Itoweaa, tho Saxon Princess!" With these thoughts In his mind, he strode up the passage, and opened the drawing-room door. To his surprise, It was neither dark nor deserted. cheerful lire burned In the grate tho shaded lamp threw its circlet of llghti on the red-covered cent re -table and there, all ulono. sat Florence, her check resting on her hand, her soft eves fixed Intently on something in her lap bis photograph! It was the prettiest little tableau In the world. Amydon stood for a sec ond. scarcely willing to disturb it. "Florence!" "O. Gilbert, Gilbert!" And with a low, sobbing cry of Joy she spiT-ng to his breast. "So you haven't gone to the fancy ball, after all," said he, as ho sat down beside her, passing his hand fondly over her golden hair. "To the fancy ball? 1 never thought of going. Gilbert. I knew you did not like balls; and, besides, where would be the pleasure ot going, witn you away?" "They wrote to me that you were going as Rowena, the Saxon Princess," said Amydon, half ashamed of tho words he uttered. "O, I know!" said Florence, laugh ing. "Fanny Myrtle did want me to go. She was to be Rebecca, the Jew ess, you know, and Major Darrock, her cousin, was to be Ivanhoe; and sno thought it would be a nice party. She even ordered a costume for me, but I told her all along I shouldn't go; so Clara Myrtle is wearing it to-night." "While you are sitting here all alone, and studying my photograph?" he in terrogated fondly. "I I'm afraid I was crying a little, confessed Florence, "for I was so lone ly, and I wanted to see you so much." "My own darling little wire!" This was the last of Gilbert Amy- don's brief madness of Jealousy. Dru- sllla's spite and Uncle Crawley's quiet malice had all fallen short of their mark. And Florence reigns undisputed queen at last over her husband's heart. Holluml anil Her Colonies, It Is not the fiercest nations that have been the greatest successes at colonlzinR and getting rich out of gen tle toil. Next to England, little pleg matlc Holland has ths most valuable colonies in the world. She still holds Java. containing 25,000,000 people, and although the natives are Malays they are very loyal. She also has oth er rich possessions In the east, the is land of Sumatra being four times as largo as Cuba, and the island of Cel ebes being larger than all Now Eng land, to say nothing of her six Islands in the West Indies and her possessions In South America. The good-natured Netherlands, like the British, have held on to their profitable territory by keeping the spirit of trada alive rather than the spirit of autocracy, and avoid ing the levy of murderous taxes, with nothing in return to compensate. About Mqilitoo. Mosquitoes, It la to be presumed, ex ist for snmo useful service, but what It Is known only to etomologlsts. To the majority of people there Is no in formation regarding them so welcome as the fact that they are gradually be ing exterminated by the advance of civilization. This being so, it should be additionally Interesting to those who live in districts where mosquitoes abound to know how their departure can be expedited. Permanganate of potash, says a medical paper, can be used against them with deadly effect. Minute parts of the crystal are suffic ient for the purpose. The same author ity Informs us that only two and a half hours aro required for a mosquito to develop from Its first stage, a speck resembling cholera bacteria, to its' active and venomous maturity.
