In conversation with a prominent planter
of the Fouth District, we learn of a new and
novel way to kill crows. The gentleman's
plan is to catch one ot the birds, tie it to
your body and walk through the field with

The cries of the bird will cause others or its
tribe to flock around you, and tliey can then
be easily shot. This method of extermina

who are so disposed sre at liberty to try it.

An exchange ssys: During a recent storm
in Butler county a thunderbolt struck a tree,
jumped off to a wire clothesline, followed it
to the door of Mr. W. J. Adams' house,
passed from tbe wire to his daughter's head,
burned hef hair and eyebrows, ran down
her right leg and tore off ber shoe. That was
a rather indirect way to approach the task
of taking off a young lady's shoe t and al

The Perry county Advocate says : Mary,
little daughter of Wm. B. Dunn, of Spring

following the lamb was round lying in the
water in tbe field. The little girl took the

front yard nibbling grass.

is a sell. The treasure (f) which consisted
oi a small earthern vessel filled with mud,
was lound at tbe bottom of an abandoned
well, located a short distance from the barn
which stood on the site of the reservoir, and
which for years had been the receptacle for
all the old cans, and other refuse of the
neighborhood.

Washington, gets detailed on somebody's
staff, trades his uniform for a dress suit,
and if the Indians want to see bim they must

The Huntingdon Globe of last week tells
ll.Ttmti t . fy. n. a -, .u cut.
prising young farmer residing near Baker's
Summit, recently discovered lh.t one of his
cows' which until lately gave a few gallons
of milk daily, for some reason gave tut very
little at tbe evening milking. U was at a
loss to know tbe cause of this, but rather
supposed some person during the day had
needed milk and consequently patronized
his cow for it. Until last week when a neigh
bor's boy discovered that tbe cow was be
ing milked by a black snake under a large
oak tree, w hich stood in the pasture field.
Mr. Long, being informed, investigated the
matter and found the boy 's story to bo cor
rect, and also discovered that instead of
there being one snake robbing him there
were three large ones making their home in
the old tree and milking bis cow when the
sought the shsde. Tbe strange story be
came generally known by last Sunday and
not being very picus, quite a large crowd ot
Mr. Long's neighbors arming themselves
with guns, axes and clubs marched to attack
the snakes, one of which was shut on the
tree, but to capture the others they decided
to cut the treeduwn, which thy did and in
the stump, which was hollow, another ol the
snakes, a black one, a few inches over sev
en feet was captured.

We rowed and played tennis together,
We walked on the beach at low tide ;
Ah, me, for the sweet summer weather
When I lingered and loved at her side I
She was kind, but, oh f fact most alarming,
1 could not help feeling cast down
She made herself equally charming
To that terrible Brown.
If I tasted a transient pleasure
Wbon she talked all the morning to me,
It was always subdued, in a measure,
By the thought that Brown was coming
at three.
Though she granted me live dances running,
The roses she wore in ber gown
Made me wickedly long to go gunning
For their purchaser Brown.
When we parted she murmured demurely,
That of course I might write, if 1 wished ;
And I fancied a moment that surely
My rival was thoroughly dished ;
But she said, as my joyful eyes met bers,
She was dying for news from the town ;
I mnst send her nice gossipy letters,
Like my friend, Mr. Brown.
It's a year since my hopes were thus blight
ed ;
Their memory seems almost a myth ;
And I learn she will soon be united
To an opulont named Smith;
Here's the cream-colored, square Invita
tion.
My grief I endeavor to drown
In the thought ('tis a great consolation)

What a whopper ; be nearly broke his

there. He was the first man at the ticket

"Why, my dear boy, I am delighted to

More pleasantly the time to pass,
Essayed flirtation ;
And as they strolled in twilight dim,
While near the time for parting drew,
Asked if she'd like to have from him
A bilUt-doux.
Of French this little maid knew naught,
But, doubling not 'twat something nice,
Upon its meaning quickly thought.
Then in a trice
Upward she turned her pr etty head ;
Her rosy lips together drew
For purpose plain, and coyly said,
"Yes, Billy, do !"
