THE RESOURCEFUL MOLE.
ll* G*t« Away With Kan* Wlifa You
Think You ll«Te Him.
"Speuklug of quick and reHourceful
animals, the mole lends easily so far at
my experience go. s," saufia man from
the country, •'and 1 dare say there are
many men who have made observa
tions tlint will confirm my couteution.
As you probably know, the mole plows
In the surface of the earth, generally
making a small ridge anywhere from
two to three Inches high. He moves
with remarkable rapidity even when
the ground in which he is burrowing la
hard. When operating In soft ground
he moves along at a surprising gait.
But this Is not the point I wanted to
make. I was thinking of the remarka
bly good hearing of the mole and the
ease with which he can get away Just
ut the moment when you think you
have him cornered. Of course now an.l
then you can drive u spike through the
mole before he Is aware of It. If you
do you will have to walk as light as a
cat and will have to act as quickly us
the same anLuial wheu the time comes
to act. In nine cases out of ten the
mole will hear the first footfall. At
once he will quit plowing, lie Is gone.
Search as you may, you canuot find
him. 1 have see:i men dig for fifty
yards, following the ridge and Its off
shrots, without finding any other trace
of the mole than the ridge. The mole's
hearing Is pe>-u!larly keen, and I sup
pose this Is so because he cannot see.
But even more wonderful from my
BtaudiM)iut Is the ease and quickness
with which he gets away. llow does ho
manage It? Where does he go? You
kuow, the element of superstition In
my makeup is slim, and I don't believe
In ghosts, but somehow I have always
Inclined Just a lilt to the ghost theory
when thinking of the mysterious antics
of these blind borrowers. The mole Is
more like a ghost In his conduct than
anything I have ever known, though,
of course, the mole Is a reul and not an
imaginary ami mythical thing."—New

A MEMORY OF LEE.
lie Hud >lu «*li lHjrnlty of lleurluu
ami llonut)' of l-'uee.
Soon after the Confederates began to
enter the town (Elizabethtown) 1 met a
friend of mine, the sou of L>r. Doyle,
who told me that his father had just
been sent for to see Lee and that I
might go, too. If I run us fast as my
small legt coul 1 carry me, aud we
found the doctor Just starting. Dr.
Doyle was a man who had been lu
communication with the enemy from
the Ix'glunlug of the war, but had so
far managed to escape the fate of
many innocent men. Two of his sons
had beeu arrested u short time before
and were lying lu Jail when their
friends arrived and set them free.
The doctor was In his old gig and.
lielng an Immense man, left no room
for any one else lu It, so we two boys
sat on the springs behind. It was on
the Wllllamsport pike, about half a
mile from the town, that we met Gen
eral Lee. He had dismounted und was
standing by his horse, a small sorrel
mare, which, I was told, It was his cus
tom to ride on the march. Ills staff
was brilliant Ing >1(1 lace, but he was
very simply dressed. No one could
have seen that man without being
greatly Impressed with the dignity of
his bearing aud the beauty of his face.
His hair ut this time was almost en
tirely white, and those who had seen
him the year before said he had aged
greatly In the short space of time which
had elapsed since the battle of Antle
taiu. I could not help thinking of
Washington us I looked at thut calm,
sad face. It has been said since by
those who were near him that he had
uo expectation of conquering the north
und thut ut the most he only hoped to
win u great battle ou northern soli lu
order to affect public opinlou In Europe
and lead to the recognition of tho
Southern Confederacy. However that
may be, there was nothing about his
beuring which looked like a great hope

A HINDU WIZARD.
Hl* Trick '!'»» at I'uailvd nu Occiden
tal Matter of Mnvli'.
801110 of the tricks of the Hindu wiz
ards are past understanding, according
to an occidental master of magic who
WUM speaking of IIIH oriental rlvula.
This IN what he says he saw a Hindu
wizard do In a club In Lucknow:
"lie took a board and placed It on
four gluss goblets, thus elevating It
from the tloor. A youngster sitting on
the board was requested to place his
hands together, palms up. Then the
Juggler took a glass of water and pour
ed It Into the outstretched hands of the
boy. 111 the meantime the boy had been
mesmerized, and his attention was fix
ed on a point indicated by the magi
cian. Cruduully the vratjv turned green
In color and then developed into a Jelly
which Increased in density until It be
cume as solid as a stone. Out of the
center of this appeured the head of a
snake, which gradually developed un
til in the place of the water there ap
peared a hissing reptile. I was amazed,
I can assure you, but the trick was not
yet completed. Hitting the reptile upon
the head with his wand, the Juggler
took It up carefully and placed It back
lu the gluss. As we looked It became
transformed Into a Jelly, which in turn
melted iuto a greenish colored water.
Clearer and clearer became the fluid
until it was of Its original color, and
then the Juggler placed It to his lips
and drank the entire contents. This
was the most wonderful trick I ever
saw performed, and It Is as mysterious
to me today as it was then."

The following account Is given In

Is dug !u tl.e ground, at tbe bottom of

A. funnel shaped wedge of paper is
then inserted into tbe bole, tbe upper
edge of tbe paper being coated witb

Heroism la Aafmala.
Animals are capable of what we
■bould call heroism In nan. In one
field was a donkey, In another a horse.
Through tbe first went a mastiff and
made for the ass, seized him by the
throat, pulled blm down, and that so
suddenly that the donkey looked like
ly to be killed. The horse In tbe next
field leuped the hedge dividing tbe
two pastures, collared the dog with
bis teetb, swung blm and like a base
ball player caught htm on tbe fall—
with his heels. Tbe mastiff was whisk
ed over the hedge which the horse
bad Just crossed, and tbe donkey wus
left In petc« to recover from hi*
wounds.

well filled with the good things people

('bailee in bis confession told how
be aud Alousou got the oil cm when
bin mother had left it t utside the
house and bad then opened the wind
ow and poured oil wlnrever tiny
could. Tlieu they threw in mate bet
aud set it ablaze. After the fire bad
spent itself Charles claimed Bigler
said: "They're done fur, she is out
of tho way aud 1 won't hav>t to pay
lier six dollars a mouth anymore."
Tho motive was the estraiigemeut
existing between Bigler Jo usou aud
his wife. They separated some time
before the tragedy aud iu the proceed
ings which followed the court ordered
the hushaud to pay to 1119 wife the sum
of $A a month. He obeyetl tho man
date, but reluctantly aud one mouth
before tint murder, as he wan paying
the money he stated that th.it was the
last bin wife would vet from him.
Charles Johnson was the flrxt to be
placed ou tiial and after several days
were consumed with the otTeiing of
testimony, tie was found guilty of
murder of the first degree. Tho jury
was out but a short time.
Bigler was next culled for trial aud
ho plead guilty aud threw himsolf up*
ou tho mercy of tho Court. His at
torneys were confident of gettinu a
ife sentence, but Judge Farming
promptly condemned him to death.
The mother aud two childreu were
later released from jail, the common
wealth having little hope of finding
them guilty with tho testimony in
hand. It is belioved by the people of
this town that the mother will be re
arrested, as it is said detectives are
still working on the case.
Tho attorneys for Charles Johnson
are still fighting hart) to sa\e his life
and the date tor bin execution has mt
yet'hoeu fixed. Bigler Johnson has
made so many < onfushions that little
credeuce is placed hi any of them.
He now states that after diinking a
pint of ulcohol on the way to his
wife's homo, he killed her and his
niece aud burued the house. He mfn
utuly describes his movements before
the crime but that says he hi.s uo
knowledge of bow ho committed the
murder, although he is quite ceittin
he killed them both, aud th.the was
alone at the time.
An effort will be made upon the
strength ot this confession to save the
life of Charles.
Tho uiau who died ou the Bradford
county gallows today is a descendant
of the Johusons of the Hevolutionary
fame, who wielded such influence
among the Mohawk Indians. *1 lie
