Mr. Daniel E. Offutt, President of the
Garrett County Bank, aud one of the
largest tax payers in this county, has had
repared and forwarded to Senator Getty

court house. The vaults in the present
building are not large enough te protect
the records of the county, and shonld it
continue to he used they will have to be
enlarged at a hdavy cost. The old build:
ing needs repairs every year and it is ar-
gued that the amount that must be annu-
ally expended on it will more than pay
the interest on the bonds for a new
building. The old building can be util:
ized for public school purposes and save
the rent of buildings for that purpose.
The Kicker.
Once upon an evening dreary, while]
. brooded blind and beery, thinking of
the city's future, as I'd often thought
before; while I nodded nearly napping,
suddenly I heard a rappiug, as of peo-
ple wildly scrapping, scrapping near
my chamber door. 801 threw aside
my packet, and I cried “O, cheese that
racket!” But the pounding still con-
tinued till it shook the oaken floor,
To the door I walked, and twisted, on
the door knob. which resisted; then
there came a double-fisted kicker of
the days of yore. Not s word he said,
but squatted, on a yellow sofa spotted,
with queer dots of red or crimson,
Inoking like some daubs of gore. Bat
_ his eyes were at me staring, and their
steady, sullen g.aring sent a chilliness
to my bosom, striking coldly to is
core. ‘Tell me,” cried I, “tell me.
kicker, have you filled yourself with
liquor, that yon come without a snick-
er, uninvited to my door?”
“Take thy cane and little bundle, and
from out my chamber tumble, or by
all the crimson demons I shall wal-
low in your gore!” But the kicker.
never blinking, sat upon the safa
thinking, never smiling, never wink-
ing, as he answered ‘‘Nevermore.”
“Kicker,” said I, “spring is coming—
don’t you think booms will be hum-
ming, don’t you think this town will
flourish as it never did before? Think
you it will be a saving, now we have
a decent paving, and the people have
quit their raving of the mud and ruts
galore?”
But the kicker; never flitting, on the sofa
still was sitting, saying while my teeth
were gritting, that sad answer, ‘Never:
more.” “Don’t you think we'll hear
about ns, huilding, with its din and
roar?! Even though the chumps are
sighing, grunts protesting, kickers cry-
ing? Don’t you think we'll soon be
flying to such heights as eagles sonr?
Don’t you think that man and woman
should make efforts superhuman to im-
prove the city’s future? Quoth the
kicker, ‘*Nevermore.” :
**Kicker,” then cried 1 in fury. ‘I'll be
judge and court. and jury, and your
sentence is to wallow in your own
disgruntled gore. For your answers
make me weary, and you'll spoil a pros-
pect cheery by your sniveling so dreary
as you oft have done before. Take
your hat from off my bracket, take your
bundle and your packet, and make
tracks from out the valley, or Ili slug
you till you're sore.
This town would have been soaring
where the solar rays are pouring, but
for kickers and their roaring. which is
all their stock and store. Take away
your dismal body, with your smell of
weed and toddy, for you make my sys-
tem weary. ‘Quoth the kicker, *‘New-
ermore.” And the kicker, never fift-
‘ting, on my sofa still is sitting, and the
lamplight on him shining, casts his
shadow on the floor. At the carpet he
is staring, with that steady vacant glar-
ing, and his answers to my swearing.
is his dreary ‘“Nevermore.”
This he winspers when I'm raving on the
beanties of good paving or the prospect
of more building than we ever had be-
fore. Ihave filled him full of liquor
and then tried to bounce the kicker,
but he only gave a snicker, as he an-
swered *“Nevermore.”—Ex.
