C0M1UNG THE COLONEL, Tliavo was a great political torment in Stmiison county, Ky., over tlionpproncli ing election of n county jtnlge- The nominating .convention was to meet on Saturday, mid on Friday night two well known politicians oauirht in a vain storm topped nt tho house of old John Perdue. The politicians, Mnj. Uloodgood nuu Col. Noi.x, were sly candidates for the covetod position-'so sly, in fact, tliat neitlior ono knew ot tlio scliemes ol me other. After supper, while old John nnd his guests wero sitting on the porch talking over the coming struggle mid listening to a wet katydid that hold vesper ser vices in a locust treo, old John, getting up and stretching himself, said to the major: "Let mo seo you n moment, please. Tito major followed him to the end of the gallery. "Major," old John whis pered, "I ntn compelled to tell you some thing. You gentlemen nro welcome to stay with me ns long as you liko, but ability to accommodate cannot always be measnred by willingness to do so. Tho truth is I haven't but ono spare bed," But can t tho colonel and 1 sleep to gether?" the major rejoined. ' "Yes, you can, but the truth is the colouol is awfully peculiar." "How so? "Well, ns rational as he appears while stirring about no s a strange man in bed. Our families, you know," urb .well nc nuaiuted, anjj I therefore knownllnbout him. Illspeeulianty comes from u scare ho recoirod when ho was n child. It seeius that a dog onco tried to bite him, and now, just "leforo ho dozes off to sleep, ho begins to growl, nnd unless something is dono to stop him ho begins to bite fearfully." "Humph, the major grunted, "that s odd, but what can be dono to stop him after no begins to growl? "Well, his brothor told mo how he used to work it. He always took a coarse comb to bed with him and would rake tho colonel with it when ho began to growl. As strange ns it may seem, it was tho only tlnug that would quiet mm. The family doctor said that n comb was somehow the only thing that would start tho blood to circulating. That's very odd, And would it quiet him?" Would mako him act just liko a lamb. Why, ho uster insist that his brother should tako tho comb to bed with him. Ho don't liko to havo any one mention the freakish misfortune, as he nlwnys terms it, but it would bo doini him a groat favor if you would tako the cqtnb to bod with you and give him rake in case ho should begin to growl. am telling you this because 1 am your friend, and because I know that you nro good timber, and especially because hope that you may securo his influence if you should over desire any oilico, Don't you know that wo always reaped tho man that understands our peculiar ities before wo are asked to oxplain them to him? no is sensitive that way, and if lie sees that you understand him ho will then know that you have had your eye on him, have held liiin m your mind." "All right. You get me tho comb, ntid I will go through with tho cere mony when tho timo comes." . "Here's one,put it in your pocket. They returned to tho colonel, and after ii while, when, the major stepped into the house to get a drink of water, tho old man said: "You and the major are good friends, I am glad to see. "Yes," replied tho colonel. "I think ho is a first rate fellow." "Olad you like him, for you and he will have to sleep together to-night, for tlid flint la I hi, vu mill Anu filiATA liuil." "Tht will lie all right I reckon," said the colonel. "Yea. but the truth is the major the inoit peculiar fellow you ever saw, "ln what way?" "Am a bedfellow. I am very intimate with his family and know all about mm.. It seems that he hud a nervous trouble when lie wan it boy, and could not go to ileen until some one growled like a dog, I have known him to lie totting in bed for lwnirs at a time, and then when I would go to hi bed and growl he would doze off like a lamb. "I never before heard of an ailliction so ttrmige, said tiie colonel. "1 eltlier, but then It is u very easy matter to relieve him He and a fellow named Davk.Johitfon were oueo oppos' I hk cnuilidttU for pronecutinif attorney, Well, they uwl to sleep together one night- Buck know of his peculiar sUtlio teoti, aud shortly after they went to bed Highest of all in Leavcming Power. I 1 , ' : 1 ABSOLUTELY PURE llnck bognn to growl. The major didn't eny. anything that night, but next day ho withdrew from the race; declaring that ho would not run against so good rt man as liuok. "You don't say sol" exclaimed the colonel. "Yos I do, and know it to bo a fact 1 would advise yon to humor him In the Bnmo way," "I'll do so." "Hush, ho's coming back." "Wo aro going to havo moro rain, I think," Raid tho mjor, as ho resumed hi! soat. "Yes," the colonel responded, "but I hopo that it will not interfere with the convention. If the attendauco is large and tho proceedings harmonious, the result will lie of great benefit to the county." "Who do you think will be nominated for judge?" old John askod. "Neither of tho candidates that have been named. Wo huvo hotter timbet than any of those fellers." "Well, said the major, yawning, "1 reckon wo better go to bed, so ns to be in trim for tho work to-morrow." "I will show you tho room," tho old man rouiarked, arising, The politicians were shown into an upper room, and tho old man, placing a enndio. on tho mantelpiece, bado them good-night and went down stairs. "What noise was that?" tho major, asked when tho old man had quitted the room. "1 didn't hear any noise," the colonel answered." "I did; it sounded like some ono gasp' ing for breath." He might havo heard a noise might have heard old John struggling to sup press his laughter. "oupposo we go to bed, said the major. "All right. V ou go ahead nnd I will blow out tho candlo. They talked for some timo before lying down; then, after a long silence, tho col ouel uttered n tleop growl. The majoi reached over and giwo him a rake with tho comb. "What tho deuce aro you doing?" o claimed tho colonel, (springing up in bed. What do you mean? And in his rage lie began to gruto his teotll. The major, supposing that ho was get ting ready to begin biting, reached ovet and gave lnm another rake. "You infernal idiotl" yelled the colo nel, feeling for tho major's hair, "if I don't wool you I'm a shotol" What are you doing? howled the major. "Let go, or 1 11 hurt youl Cuit, tell youl llavon t you got any sonsor The major had found his hair. "I'll lot you know what it is to rake tho life out of me with a crosscut saw. 1 was doing it to oblige yon, you conlounded wolfl Let go my huuT "Uulige mol uo you take me tor a saw log? Look out I Ir you hit me again I'll pull every hair out nf yout head! They tumbled out on tho floor, rolled over nnd over, and then ovorturaod a tottering old wardrobe that came dpwn upon-thorn witlr-ji crash,' The majot swore that ho was dead, and the colonel yelled for a light, but uo light came, Had they listened thoy might havo hoard another noise1 that sounded as if some ono were breathing hard. The old man was in the hall shaking tho railing ol tho stairway. Tho major was the first to scramble to his feet. '1 will throw you out of this window!" lie exclaimed,. .Vnd if I can kd my pistol I'll shoot the top of your head off!" howled the colonel. This threat to frightened the major that ho gathered up his clothes as bost he could ahd rushed from the room "Why, what'e tho matter?" the old man asked when tho major came down. Nothing, only 1 atn going away to get a cannon and then come back nnd blow that fool into eternity. "Did he try to bite you? "He tried to kill me, that's what he tried to do." "Why didn't you rake him?" "I did rake him." "Humph!" grunted the old man; "he must have lost his peculiarity. What. you nro not going out in such n night aa tins?' "Yes. I am, for if I seo that fool again 1 11 have to cut Ilia throat. (JKiod-by Shortly after the major left, the colonercamo down. "Why, look here, said he; "1 growled just as you told rat to do, nnd I wish 1 may die if that fellow didn't come within one of ripping my llfo out of mo." "Mighty sorry to hoar it. Ho must have changed Mnco 1 know'd him so well." When the convention mot next day the major nnd the colonel fought each other so violently that noither of them could win, aud at an opportune time. old John Perdue stepped in and received tho nomination.

Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1889. Rftf4LW YVlien Iloyiiity Traiels In ,1.V2inn. Thero has existed in Jamil for many centuries a curious law to the effect that whenpver the emperor or nmprosa ap peared in public no other persoi should seem to occupy a higher place than this member of tho roynl family; therefore ou such occasions the shutters of nil up per stories wero drawn, aud the upper parts of the houses tlirough which the royal party moved wero seemingly de serted. This law is still in effect. Three months ngo, when tho empress went into the country for a brief period, an elab orate announcement was posted in con spicuous places along tho lino of her con templated route commanding tho public to observo strictly certain requirements of etiquotto, to wit: When her majesty shall pass along no ono must look nt her from the frame built on houses for tho drying of clothes, or through cracks in doors, or from any position in tho upper part of their houses. Jf anybody wishos to seo her nnuesty ho or she must sit down at tho side of tho ronl by which hor majesty will pass. All children must be taken particular care of that they do not play in the road, and so obstruct tho passago of. her ma jesty through tho streets. ISO ono must look nt her majesty with out talcing off his hat, neckcloth ot turban, or whatever else he may be wearing on his head. Moreover, no one must bo smoking whilo ho or bIio is look ing at her majesty, nor must any one carry a stick or cane. Only women wearing the clothes of foreigners will be permitted to retain their head covering. Although it may rain, no person will bo allowed to put up an tuubrolla while her majesty may bo passing. Dogs must not bo allowed to wandet on to tho road by which hermajesty will pass. Until tho passage of hor majosty, the "route by which sho will como will be kept freo from all carriages and jinri- kashas. Tho roads which she will take must bo completely freo from all traffic, As her majesty passes, no ono must raise his voice, nor must any sound be heard, nor must tho crowd close in nnd follow her carriage, for no noiso must be made. When hermajesty reachesUmedn station thero will be a discharge of fifty fireworks. Eugene Field in Chicairc News. One by One tlio Idols Aro Falllngl Tho papers havo been full of para- gratihs about Edward Grubb, "the Bris tol Centenarian, who is described at having died at tho ago of 109. Ctrubl was not a centenarian, for, according tc his own account, ho was living nt Kings- land, whero ho was born, when th(. battlo of Waterloo was fought, and yet ho went to settlo in London "threo oi four years before ho wns 20." It i3 clear, therefore, that, as only seventy-fivo years have passed since Waterloo, Grubb can not havo been more than 00 when he died. A still" moro conclusive proof is af forded by tho tombstone over his father's gravo in tho churchyard at Klngsland, which records that he 'died in 1809, ni tho age of !); so that if Grubb was s centenarian ho was born when his fathei was 10 years old, nnd if ho was 109 he must havo been born when his fathei was 7 years old!

Tho vessels scud by under full sail, nnd the fishing boats, off on tho banks, rise nnd full like logs on tho long ground swell. Tho surf breaks on tho bench in groat combers, which throw thomselves high upon the snnd and then rush back tc miuglo with tho moro congenial clo mcnt. On tho bluff nt Seabright stands a man whoso oyos, Bhaded by his hand, are bent fixedly upon a small dark patch on tho ocean over which aro clustered excited soa gulls. Now and thou tho patch scintillates with silver spots, nnd the gulls throw, themselves from their lofty height into tho silver kaleidoscope It seems to bo moving nenror shore. The watcher porcoives it to bo a school of bluefish. Soon tho school is inside of tho breakers and ho runs into a neigh boring house. Ho comes out carrying a long flshinc lino, neatly coiled and ending in sir Inches or moro of stont wire, to which is attached it, lead squid. Removing his shoos nnd stockings and rolling up his trousers tho man, carrying tho coil of lino on his ami, wades into tho surf, and catching hold of the lino about six feet from tlio squid begins to whirl tho piece of lead around his head. It whirls fast er and faster. After tho retreat of a wave ho finally runs down almost into the ocean bed aud lets go of tlio line. Tho squid flics out straight a hundred ?,ad1flft? feot ,u?ro wttles into tho breakers. FISHING FItOM THK BIIOKE. Thftn tho fisherman hauls it in hand over linnd as rapidly as ho can. A blue fish jumps from tho water nnd the line assumes a marked rigidity. Tho fisher man hauls yet faster, and pulls up on tho beach a six pound beauty. Ho unhooks the long, powerful bodied, blue backed, whito bellied fish very gingerly, for he is mindful of tho rnzorlike teeth nnd does not caro to lose a finger. Ho throws tho fish liigh up on tho beach and begins his efforts afresh. In half an hour the blue fish, which have been in chaso of a school of menhaden, head for tho deeper ocean, and the fisherman picks up his catch of a dozen or moro and walks back to tho house. Such is.bluefishing on tho Jersey coast. Would you seo tho sport on Great South Bay, go to any of tho bordering towns, and engage for a small sum a sail boat and a captain to tako yon out. If ' you do not become seasick nnd thero is a reefing breeze you will have grand sport. A squid and line can lie used, or a rod and reel yith a squid. The boat keels well over on its side aud rushes through the water with an oxhilaratiug motion. Soveral long lines trcl out from the boat, nnd the squids of bono or metal fly through the water. Now tho fluh strikes ono line, now another, until fingers, pro tected ns they are by mitts, aro sore and arms acho. A morning's sport will often yield cn&ugh fish for n largo hotel. Another method frequently practiced hero is known to fishermen as chum ming. Several hundred menhaden, or "bunkers," aro secured, a portion of which aro ground or chopped tip into n kind of mush, and liberally scattered over tho surfneo of tho water where the boat is anchored. the oirrriT, An oily "stick" is thus formed which floats rapidly to- leeward, and often at tracts tho bluehsli within a radius oi a mile. A slice from tho menhaden's back is put on u largo hook and tho lino Is thrown overlioaril, and as it druts away the bait" is seized by tho voracious fish which swarm about tho boat. Blneflsh tackle is exceedingly cheap, A dollar will purchaso all that is neces sary for hard fishing, whilo nn outlay 'of $0 or $7 will buy a btout casting rod, n cheap, stout reel and line, and tho nec essary hooks and squids. With this out fit tho most fastidious can fish. Small Riiapriers of two pounds weight aro qui to abundant nt Broad channel and the inlet of Jamaica bay, and also at oca waren, Fnneo s bay, the liorso at bandy Hook and at Barnognt. Tho largo fish running from six to fifteen pounds have been found in great quantities all along the Long Island and Jersey coasts. Tho season is usually from the middle of .Tnly to tho first of October, To bo Btiro of good fishing and big fish one should go aboard ono of tho stanch little smacks that supply Irolton market with its Friday's blneilsh. A little tact and tho judicious use of four or five dol lars will securo a berth. Theso boats go out to the banks of tho Jersey or Long Island shore and sail around until fish are sighted. Then they anchor. Small hand mills aro brought ou deck and menhaden are ground up. Dories to tho number often of a dozen, each car rying a man and menhaden, mush and bait, put off from the smacks nnd anchor within a radius or Hair a mile. At tlie end of tho d'ty each dory will bring in two or three hundred large fish.
