The mocking echo my ears did greet.

Well did they know that the wreck was my

We always did tlote on babies. In
fact, we were a baby ouee ourselves.
Or ratlior were babies, as we were
twins. We called our ila Louisiana,
because die was run by a dual govern
ment. Tliere are numerous kinds of
babies. Some are white, and some are
not quite so white, and 6ouie are black.
Then there are doll babies. Rag babies
are the favorites of the Greenback
party. Tben, again, there are wax ba
bies. We were whacks babies, because
our mother w hacked us so much when
we were small. But we are not proud.
China babies do not wear. pig-tail, or
blue shirts, neither do they spin. There
is a vast difference between China and
Chinese babies. Xo one ever saw a
Chinese baby. Perhaps our love for
babies arises from the fact that we never
owned a baby, or ever had a part inter
est in one. A mother always has a
"part" interest in one when she tries to
comb its hair. When we feel lonely,
we just bjrrow our neighbor's baby to
cheer us up, We don't feel lonely long,
then. It is more busy than lonely. It
is a study to sit and watch a twelve
month old (or young) baby enjoying
Itself. There is that utter naivete and
reckless abandon about them that we
cannot but admire. There is no hesi
tation on their part in smearing your
light pants with molasses candy, or the
pulling over of a malachite card-table.
They are imbued with a sort of a don't-eare-a-continental
elemeut that makes
them attractive. We have seen a three
hundred dollar watch ruined in two
secoi.ds by an investigating baby. Both
the baby and the watch rolled down a
flight of stairs. It was our cousin's
liaby, and we were watching it while
the mother was sewing for the littic
heathen. We nevei took a job like that
on tick again. Both the baby and the
watch were sent to the dry-docks for
repairs. A jnior man once told us that
when he was despondent, there was
nothing buoyed (or girled) up his spir
its so quickly as his wife's baby. We
took his word for it. He couldn't give
a note. Babies have many advantages
and disadvantages. They do not
smoke nor drive fast horses. They do
drive last asleep away, however. There
is nothing, as yet, invented that will
more effectually rob "tired nature's
sweet restorer" and a feather bed of
their comforts than a choleric baby.
We used to think we would like to be
chief matron or pa-tron of a foundling
asylum. We have changed our mind
now. A visit to the baby show fixed
mat. aauite, an a lii'nu in uuuiaii ni iu
told us the other day, w ould make good
farmers, as they are soused to sighs and
wrv faces while being cradled bv ner
vous mothers. Some babies are born
with a silver spoon in their mouths
Perhaps that is why some young men
are so spooney. It is to one's advantage
to be a baby during a riot. But when
free tickets to the circus are being dis
tributed it is very much otherwise.
Were there no babies, the cheering
spectacle of a ninety-five pound man
pushing a coach full of twins and fol
lowed by a two hundred and forty
three pound woman, would no longer
be seen on our streets. The soldiers
stationed in cities would, like Othello,
find their occupation gone, and would
mourn for the nurses that were not. It
is wise, therefore, that babies are. We
trust they w ill continue to be. Some
people despise babies. We don't, for
we were taught to "despise not the day
of small things." A baby does not last
more than ten or twelve years, except
in rare cases. On looking over the
causes of death, weekly, in the city pa
pers, we find there is one thing of
which babies never die old age.
Hence, the wisdom of being a baby.
Nearly everylody was a baby once.
The only notable exceptions to this
rule are Adam and Eve, old Bill Allen,
the Colorado stone man, Joyce Hetb,
Cleopatra, Sergeant Bates and old man
Bender. Your own babv is always a
success, your neigh bor's a failure.
"Myles the Masher."
The Enniskillen Dragoons, an Irish
regiment in the English service, have
as giand a record as any similar body
of men In the world. The time of their
formation dates from 1CSS, the year of
the English revolution, when William
of Orange drove James II., from the
throne of England.
The nucleu of the regiment was first
formed of young men recruited in Fer
managh, Tyrone and Cavan, and up to
the present time contains a majority
from those counties, and it is a singular
fact that they make the best and most
efficient cavalrymen In the Britich ser
vice. Their celebrated charges at the
Boyne, Waterloo and Balaklava are
matters of history. Their descendants
were well represented in the federal
army during our late war, and rode side
by side with Sheridan in many a raid
and foray.
But the most dashing trooper of them
all, the boldest and bravest rider that
ever sat in saddle or spurred to death
with a shout of defiance ringing on his
lips, was .uy les tnc niasner.
llaelmora, or llyles O'Reilly, was
descended from a long line of chiefs
who had bravely battled for the cause
of their native land, ne lived in troub
lous times, when he w ho could give
and take the most knocks was generally
considered to be the better man, and
when thews and sinews were held in as
much estimation as brains or genius
O'Reilly, however, was gifted with both.
He was reckoned to be the strongest
man in Europe, and was called the
"Slasher" on account of his surpassing
strength and bravery. A giant in
strength and stature, comely and fair to
look upon, a tried and trusted leader,
an ardent patriot, and a daring soldier
he was idolized by his men and feared
and hated by his enemies. .In battle he
was terrible helmet and skull were
shattered by a blow from his powerful
arm, and but few in the English army
a red meet him alone in single combat.
Many a rugged mountaineer who had
followed the flag of Alunroe from Ben-
lomond, and many a Mosstrooper who
had raided on the borders of Berwick
and Carlisle, met his death, from the
sword of the Slasher. When leading a
charge it was invariably his custom, if
he could possibly accomplish it, of rid
ing into the midst of the enemy's ranks
and hacking and slashing all around
him with his ponderous sabre until he
cut his way through or defeated the
enemy.
In the month of June, 1646, the
English army, ' ten thousand strong,
and commanded by Maj, Gen. Munroe,
lay encamped on the Ulster Blackwater
near the little village of Benburb, in
Tyrone. Gen. Owen Koe O'Xeil, who
commanded the northern division of the
Irish army of about six thousand men,
marched to meet and measure swords
with him, Cn the morning of the 4th
of June the two armies encountered
each other. The battle was long and
stubbornly coutested. The positions
occupied by the belligerents were natur
ally strong and well defended on both
sides.
Owing to their superiority In men,
the English made several bloody but
ineffectual charges. Each time they
were driven back with great slaughter,
while every attempt of the Irish to
force their lines met with a similar
and bloody ending. And thus the
battle raged from early dawn of that
long summer day until the sun was sink
ing low In the West.
Myles the Slasher had remaiued an
idle but impatient spectator of the scenes
enacted before him. He had been com
manded by his general to occupy a
position with his cavalry and await his
orders. The fiery soldier chafed at his
inactivity, for he had been kept wait
ing all day listening to the roar and
swell cf battle around him, hut he was
too cood a soldier to disobey. He
watched the sun as he sank behind him
in the woods, and eagerly longed for the
din and clash of battle. He had not
much longer to wait. Suddenly with a
roar, the English artillery opened, and
under cover of their fire the whole army
advanced to the charge, This was the
decisive moment. Munroe, with his
whole strength, determined to fall
upon his enemy, and crush him at a
blow.
At that moment the Irish general
emerged from the woods, and accom
panied by his staff, galloped In the
direction of bis colonel of cavalry
Their greeting was short and curt.
"Colonel, do you see those troops
advancing on the right?'
"Yes, General."
"They number 2,500 men, and are
the flower of the English army."
"Yes, General."
"Their lines mnst be pierced and
broken and put to route, or else the day
is lost. On you devolves that honor,
You know your duty. Good bye."
A grim smile lit up the countenance
of the Slasher as the general rode back
to his own personal command, and
turning to his troopers he said :
"Men, before the enemy reach yon
der knoll that rises between them and
us. we mnst be upon them. Forward !
and follow me."
Dashing his spurs into his charger's
flanks, be rushed into the open space
between him and the foe, followed by
every man in his command. The on
slaught was fierce and terrible, but of
short duration. The Slasher, with one
fearful blow, clove the English stand
ard-bearer to the chin, and leaped into
the midst of the Enemy's ranks. His
terrible shout could be heard above the
peal of musketry that greeted him, but,
unharmed, be rushed on, scattering
death and destruction around him. For
awhile it was body to body with push
of pike, but brave as the Britons were
they could not withstand the fiery and
fearful shock of Myles the Slasher.
Before his rushing charge they went
down, and, beaten and defeated, Munroe
fled, leaving behind him three thousand
of his best and bravest troops dead on
the field.
Tricks of Drivers.
It was more common years ago than
recently for landlords and stage-drivers
to have an understanding with each
other, whereby, for a consideration
paid the driver, hnngry travelers were
scarcely allowed time to comfortably
seat themselves at the table, w hen the
driver would announce the immediate
departure of the stage, thus cheating
people out of a meal who paid for one.
I remember being one of a stage load
of hungry travelers crossing the Sierra
Nevada before railroads had spanned it,
when a noted judge, still on the bench,
and an equally noted professor of an
eastern college, were of the party.
Our arrival at a dinner station was
hailed with delight by all the ' party.
and we filed into the dining-room to at
tack the savory viands, the landlord,
however, first taking care to collect the
fe for the meal from each of us. We
had certainly not been five minutes at
the table, and some of us. in waiting
to be helped to coffee, had not tasted a
mouthful of food, when our driver
shouted :
"All aboard; I'm behind time and
can't wait a minute longer."
A look of mingled consternation and
disgust spread from face to face, as we
sprang from the table, but the judge re
mained cool, as he touched the profes
sor on the arm.
'Will you see to the bread supply, if
I take care of the meat?" he queried
The professor caught at his purpose
and promptly assented. In another
instant the judge had conveyed a large
turkey and a couple of spring chickens,
ready carved, from their platters to two
napkins, while the professor emptied
the contents of the bread plates into
another, and, led by the judge, they
marched triumphantly to the coach.
Their example was contagious; each
of the passengers hastily confiscated
some article of food meats, vegetables
even pastry until the dining-room was
pretty thoroughly stripped of every.
thing that went to make np the con
comitants of a good meal, and the la
terior of the coach bore ttie appearance,
I imagine, of Sheruian's raid, while
the bewildered and amazed look of the
face of the speechless landlord, as we
drove off, would have proven a price-
study to an artist. The roars of laugh,
ter it caused us proved a good coudi

To destroy weeds, mairy widows.
AGRICULTURE.
It Pats' to Know How. When a
farmer . has a good farm, and fails to
make ft good living from it without
running in debt, the cause must be that
he doesn't know how to manage a farm.
1 annex an illustration from an agri
cultural paper : "One man sows a crop
of beets. He doesn't know much about
raising them, but thinks be will try it.
He gets barely enough to pay for his
labor, and concludes that itdoesn't pay
to raise beets. Another man knows all
about raising them. He has not him
self tried every yariety, nor every kind
of manure and culture, but he knows
what others have done, and how they
have succeeded best. He adds their ex
perienw to his own, and selects the
best seed, sows it at the proper season,
the right distances apart, and covers it
the proper depth In soil manured and
prepared in the best manner. He does
not stop here. He begins early to cul
tivate, weed thoroughly, hoes often
and harvests seventy tons to the acre.
Does this pay fcr knowing how and
doing his work In the best manner?
The man who sows onions without
learning the best way, gets the wrong
seed, puts it in ground that is not suit
able for it, sows it at the wrong season,
doesn't sow it thick enough because the
seed costs too much, doesn't sow it
evenly because he cannot afford to buy
a seed drill, covers it unevenly aud his
crop is a failure. The man who has
taken the trouble to find out bow to
raise onions, and what kind to sow,
raises one thousand bushels per acre.
So it pays in farming to know what to
do and bow to do it, and to make the
best use of the experience or otners.
And w hat is true of onions or beets, is
true in a greater or less degree, of all
other kinds of farm produce."
Gbol-xd Grain. The Wetter Farm
Journal can scarcely be in earnest when
it expresses t'ie opinion that neither
cooked nor ground grain promotes
growth or increases flesh in animals
comment urate with the expense of
grinding; It also claims that there are
many cases in which the feeding of
whole grain has given as great a gain
as when meal has been used ; certainly
such a doctrine will not do in Pennsyl
vania, even with an Iowa indorsement.
The nutriment of the grain is inclosed
in minute sacks of partially indigestible
matter. When the grain is fed whole
many of these escape the action of the
teeth and gastric juice and are lost.
The effect of grinding is to rupture these
and render their contents available.
Steam or heat will make sure all which
may have escaped the action of the will
stones and economise the whole. Theo
retically, each cf these operations is en
titled to a certain amouut of credit for
the work which it performs, and in the
final account must be compared with
the cost. If the latter exceeds the bene
fit, a proper and natural observer of
economic rules will lead to the aban
donment of either cooking or grinding
or both. After fair experiment, we are
ready to give up the former, but not the
latter. So long as the grain can be
ground for one-tenth of its value, the
balance is certainly on the miller's
side, and we think no practical farmer
will oppose the theory that eight bush
els properly ground is as valuable as ten
fed whole.
In England they are adopting a
horse-shoe made of cowhide, anU known
as the Yates shoe. It is composed of
three thicknesses of cowhide com
pressed Into a steel mould, and then
subjected to a chemical preparation.
It is claimed for it that it lasts longer
and weighs only one-fourth as much as
the common iron shoe; that it will
never cause the hoof to split, nor have
the least injurious influence upon the
foot. It requires no calks; even on
asphalt the horse never slips. The
shoe is so elastic that the horse's step is
lighter and surer. It adheres so closely
to the foot that neither dust nor water
can penetrate between the shoe and the
hoot.
THvjuickest war to Improve our pas
tures wnen short of manure is to top
dress them, or to pasture sheep for a
season, as these animals will extermi
nate such weeds and grasses as cows
will not eat. If the pasture cannot be
given up to sheep, pasture as many
sheep as cows, and it will be found that
the pasture will sustain as many cows
as when they were pastured alone,
while the fertility of the pasture will
allow an increase in cows of at least ten
per cent, annually.
Renovati.no Old Teexs. There is a
popular notion that trees get into an
unproductive condition through a ne
glect of pruning, and that a tnorough
pruning is all that is needed to restore
them to a healthful and fruitful state.
This is a mistake. While pruning is
usually needed, this is not the chief
want of the trees. They have been
brought to their poverty by starvation,
and their great need is food. This being
supplied, pruning, scraping and other
treatment may come in to aid.
Statistics show that the American
people ear, more butter than bread at
least the value of the butter annually
consumed is greater than the yearly
supply of wheat. So says an able writer
upon the subject.
Forbidden Fruit.
A good story is told at the expense of
two Western members of Congress,
who, having secured orders for bou
quets from Hon. S. S. Cox, Chairman
of the committee on books and bouquets
in the House, delivered the same, and
while waiting to have the nosegays
made meandered idly through the con
servatories of the botanical gardens.
They came upon a tree having red ber
ries theron, and like Adam and Eve
were tempted to eat. They tasted, and
found the fruit pleasant to the mouth,
and went on helping themselves till
one of the men employed in the place
gave them the law, which prohibited
plucking fruit or flowers. The gentle
men, feeling they were privileged, paid
no attention to the remonstrance until
the man, somewhat irritated, said :
"Well, gentlemen, if you will eat you
had better select some other fruit, for
that is deadly poison."
This was a lie trumped up for the oc
casion ; but you should have seen the
startled faces of the legislative raiders.
They fled in terror from the place,
without standing upon the order of their
going or the order for the bouquets.
They were heading for the nearest
apothecary's shop when one of them
cried:
"There goes Dr. Garnet stop him !"
The popular physician was hailed,
heard the horrible story, and, tumbling
out his colored driver, drove the law
makers to the nearest drug store. He
roic doses of an emetic were adminis
tered, and while the poor Solons were
in intense agony, throwing up their
boots, that canny Scotsman, Smith, of
the botanical gardens, was sent for.
Then the fact came out that the berries
were as harmless as haws, whereupon
everybody haw-hawed but thesuffcrers
who hurried to their hash-houses to re
fill their exhausted stomachs.
Increasing attention is being paid

SCIENTIFIC.
The Immensity of Space. In a recent
lecture delivered in Edinburgh, on the
"stars," Prof. Grant gave a graphic idea
of the immensity of space. He said a
railway train traveling night and day
at the rate of fifty miles an hour would
reach the moon tn six months, the sun
in two hundred years, and Alpha Cen
taurl, the nearest of the fixed stars, in
forty-two millions of years. A ball
from a gun, traveling at the rate of nine
hundred miles an hour, would reach
Alpha Centaurl in two million seven
hundred thousand years; while light,
traveling ot the rate of one hundred and
eighty-rive thousand miles in a second,
would not reach it in less than three
years.
Light from some of the telescopic
stars wou'd take five thousand seven
hundred and sixty years to reach the
earth ; and from some of these clusters
the distance is so great that light would
take half a million of years to pass to
the earth ; so that we saw objects not as
they really are but as they were half a
million of years ago. These stars might
have become extinct thousands of years
ago, and yet their light might present
itself to us. As to the magnitude of the
stars, he noticed that it was computed
that Alpha Lyra was one hundred bil
lions of mllestlistant from the earth, and
its magnitude and splendor were as
twenty to one when compared with our
sun. Similar investigations brought
out the fact that our sun was neither
vastly greater nor vastly less than the
great mwjority of the stars.
Polenta of Planu. The compass plant
or rosin weed as it is generally called,
the cut leaved variety, (si.pliium locina
tum,) has long been known to carry its
younger leaves with their edges north
and south. The older and larger leaves
probably from being swayed and
twisted by the wind, deviate more or
less from this polarity. To determine
the extent to which this characteristic
existed, Prof. C. E. Bessey, of the
Agricultural College at Ames, Iowa,
has Instituted a number of experiments.
The variations, probably due to the
reason we have given, are recorded iu
the American Naturalist.
Out of ninety-three observations, fifty-four
had leaves which pointed more
or less east of north, and thirty-nine
more or less west- Of the fifty-four
which pointed eastwardly, eighteen
were within five deg. of north; eight
more within 10 deg, ; seven more with
in fifteen deg. ; five more within 20 deg.,
and three more within 25 degrees; leav
ing only fourteen leaves which diverged
more than 2j degrees from due north.
Of the thirty-nine which pointed to the
west of north, nine were within 5 deg. ;
five more within 10 deg. ; three more
within 15 degrees : seven more within
25 degrees ; and seven more within 35
degrees, leaving only eight which di-
vergeu mure than Jj degrees from due
north.
The Lake Dwellers of Switzerland: The
ancient lake-dweller of Switzerland
are supposed to be of African origin.
One of the discoveries which point to
this conclusion, is the fact that the flax
tound in their dwellings does not be
long to the species now generally culti
vated, but to that which grows wild in
Great Britain, France and the coasts of
the Mediterranean, and which accord
ing to Prof. Ileer was cultivated in
ancient Egypt. Some of the seeds of
the Egyptian flax are in the Museum of
Bulaq, and it is proposed by means of
them to clear up the doubt which still
remains on this interesting poiut.

Tivw Herring Fisheries are Conducted.
Three methods of catching herring
are recognised in the waters of the Pas
sainnquoddy. Of these, the "driving"
method entails the least expense, but,
as the fish caught in this way are not
always of the first quality, and as they
will not always "drive," this plan is
not extensively adopted. To take her
ring ia this way it is only necessary to
procure a row boat, dip net, and torches.
By placing a light d torch in the bow of
the boat and rowing briskly over the
water to be fished, the herring will
generally collect about the boat in
numbers sufficient to admit of dipping.
Another of these methods is fishing
with nets. The nets are, by means of
anchors aud buoys, stretched in the
water chosen for fishing. Good judge
ment and a thorough acquaintance with
the surroundings are required, in order
to set the net at a proper depth. The
meshes of these nets are so formed as to
admit only the head of a fair-sized her
ring all the small-sized ones pass
through without being strangled. The
gills of the fish assist in preventing dis
engagement. The fish, not seeing the
trap set for them, swim In and are
caught. The third, and perhaps most
important of these plans, is weir fish
ing. Tills requires considerable capital
and a good privilege on which to build
the weir. This weir is constructed of
hardwood spiles and brush; the former
being driven into the ground of some
tideway, and the latter woven through
them. The weir must have a situation
near the entrance of some harbor, and
allow a boat to float in it at low water.
The fish enter at a small passage left for
that purpose, at or near high water,
and when the tide Is out they are
seined.
Great qualities of herring are some
times taken at one tide. Fifty bogs
heads have been seined at "Dinner
Islands" and "Bean's Island Passage"
weirs quite often lately. Others have
done nearly as well. Dinner Island
weir, owned by James M. Lord, has
yielded larger quantities this season
than any in this vicinity. Beside the
largo amount delivered at sardine fac
tories in Eastport, Mr Lord has, from
herrings, manufactured at his factory
about eighty tons of pumice and twenty
two hundred gallons of oil. He has
now stored, for future use in his pumice
factory, some one hundred and fifty
hogsheads of these herring. The pumice
sells from nine dollar to ten dollars per
ton, and is in good demand. As a fer
tilizer it is allowed to be second to none.
The oil, which is used for various pur
poses, is worth thirty cents per gallon.
The herring have been so poor that not
more than a third of the usual amount
of oil has been obtained. As the netted
herring are generally large, they are,
when frozen, shipped to western ports
and in good demand.

Xovex Cure tor Diphtheria. A
woman, whose child had the diphtheria,
was told by the doctor in attendance
that everything depended on keeping
the throat clean. She wrapped a piece
of old linen around her finger, and put
ting a cork between the jaws of the
patient, proceeded to wash the child's
throat with salt water ana aium. inis
mode of treatment, though severe, was
very effective, and has since been re
commended by the physicians as superior
to the use of a swab.

To Remove Threads from a Urcssel
Carpet. Use a clean new broom ; make

As the scholar sees in the vain bat beautiful
BmholoKie of the ancients the embodied ex
pressions of the hungry human soul, blindly
groping after the luflnite, no the physician
sees in that popular myth of the sixteenth cen
tury tbe fouutaia of" perpetual healih and
youth an expression of the longings of suffer
ing humanity for a remedy that should forever
prevent tbe incursion of disease. Tbe wilds of
Europe were ransacked lor this wonderful
fountain, and Ponce de Leon sought for it in
the cypress-swamps and tangled everglades of
sonny Florida. Men have searched for it any
where and everywhere but where it rva ly ia
in the human body itself. Tbe blood is the
real fountain of peruetual health and youth.
When this source is corrupted, the painful and
sorrow-producing effects are visible in many
shapes. The mult farious forms in which it
manifests itself would form subjects upon
which 1 might write volumes. But as all the
varied forms of disease which depend upon
bad blood are cured, or best treated, bv such
mediciues aa take np from this fluid and ex
crete from the system tbe noxious elements,
it s not of practical importance that I should
describe each. For instance, medical autbo.a
describe about fifty varieties of skin disease,
but as they ail rexpure for their cure very
similar treatment, it is of do practical at lity to
know just what name to apply to a certain
form of skin disease, so you know how best to
ours it Then again. I might go on and des
cribe various forms of scrof u.ous sores, fever
sores, white swellings, enlarged glands, and
ulcers of vary ins appearance; might aeecr be
how virulent poison may show itself in various
forms of eruptions, ulcers, sore throat, bony
tumors, etc.: but as all these var.ooa-annear-
ing manifestations of bad blood are cured by I
m uuuurm m sue, a ueem socn a coarse an
necessaiy. Thoroughly cleanse the blood,
which is the great fountain of life, and good
digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirit, vital
strengtn. and sounduess of ejnstitaiion will
all return to as. For this purpose Dr. Pierce a
Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative Pills
are pre-eminently the articles needed. They
are warranted to cure tetter, salt-rheum, scald
bead, St. Anthony'a fire, roe rash or erysipe

HUMOROUS.
a p.itt' sf isrorruirB. Some
years ago when the writer was a re
porter upon an x.asieru paper, re
volved on him to write for the same
t of the presentation
of a gold-headed cane to the Rev. Dr.
Hudge, the clergyman oi me piacc, m
a description of a new hog-killing
ukin. tha fear lust hen nut in ODera-
UlMUiiro , -J ,
tlon at the factory. Now, what made
Mr. Mudge mad was mis: ae incon
siderate buccaneer who made up the
form got the two locals mixed In a
frightiul manner, ana wneu wo wcus w
press, something like this was the ap
palling result:
Some of Mr. Mudges friends called on
him yesterday, and after a brief consul
for irtn th nnaiianectinff- hosr was seized
by the bind legs and slid along the
beam, until he reacneu tne noi wm
tank. His friends explained the object
of their visit and presented him with a
handsome gold-headed butcher, who
grabbed him by the tail, and swung
him around, and in less man a uimuic
the carcases was in the water. There
upon he came forward and said there
were times when the feelings over
for that reason he
would not attempt to do more than
thank those around nun, ior ine manner
in which so huge an animal was cut in
rpMnuntB wa u.&riiiiitiinr. The doctor
concluded his remarks, the machine
seized him, and in less uine mm it
takes to write It, the hog was cut into
fragments and worked into delicious
sausages. The occasion will be remem
bered by the doctor's friends as one oi
the most delightful of their lives. The
best pieces can be obtained for fifteen
cents per pound, and we are sure those
who have sat under his ministry, will
rejoice to hear that he has been so hand
somely treated.
Mad! Well, about nine o'clock that
morning the office had been abandoned
by every man but the advertising clerk,
and he ascended to the roof and robed
himself in boiler iron, so that he could

in the street with his congregation, all
wearing me panopiy oi war, auu crr-
Intr hnrj'hor knivea and things. The
next day we apologized, but the doctor
stopped his suDscripuou.
A Mightt Project. Two ladies:
They were talking earnestly and loudly,
and apparently great interests were at
stake.
"'o," said one, "I do not approve of
your plan. 1 should make it larger anu
cover it with silk."
'That would be the rashest foolish
ness," said another, emphatically, as
she sat down her teacup with a bang.
"I should follow the plan already be
gun upon, and use velvet True, it will
cost more, but one might as well have
a thing right"
"I agree with none of you," chimed
in a third partv. "I have a design.
which, if followed out, would surpass
any of tnose yet proposed."
Thus they talked. What are they
discussing thought the listener as be
caught now and then such words as
"plan." "design." Ac. "Can It be a
new institution of learning, the forma
tion of a new society, or what?"
Xay, verily, they were talking about
a new pin cushion.
A clergyman in Washington being

A max in Kansas City, while feeding

A Disappointed Desperado.
A rain came into Virginia, Nevada,
recently and announced that his name
was Sandy btiggins, from Tloche. lie
was six feet high, had a revolver
strapped to his hip, and carried a for
midable looking ride. After introduc
ing himself he inquired wher the Justice
Mine could be found.
"You see, I've walked all the way
from l'loche to git a sit as a fighter, and
if I can't fill the bill there ain't no man
in Nevada that can."
He was informed that the chances of
getting a job as a fighter at tbe Justice
were rather slim, as the Miners' Union
had discharged the entire gang of both
miners. This information seemed to
strike him like the news of the sudden
death of a bosom friend.
"Yon don't mean to say that they
ain't goin to fight? You don't tell me
that they have drawed off? If they
have It's mighty rough on a man that's
walked all the way from Tlocbe to take
a hand."
"You might not have got a job even
if they did tight," suggested a reporter.
"What, Sandy Stlglns not got a job
as a fighter? The minute they'd hear
my name mentioned they'd begin
biddin' for my services. The crowd
that had me with 'em would feel safe.
I'm a daisy in a fight of that descrip
tion. I'm old Death on a pale horse.

Stiggins climbin' into agang of fighters.
I kin load and fire a revolver so fast
that it gits red and"
Just then Fleabite, a small cur recog
nizing the stranger as a suspicious
character, sprang at his legs with a
series of savage yelps.
Mr. Stiggins jumped about three feet
In the air, yelling. "Take him off! Oh,
Lord, I ain't a dog tighter ! Take him
off!" and disappeared down Taylor
street, leaving Fleabite harking at the
poor.
