"OuR HAT.''-Mr. Slang had just married new
wife. On the day after the wedding, Mr.. Slang
said:
al mean to enlarge my dairy
'You mean our dairy, my DEAR" replied Mrs.
Slang.
"No," quoth Mr.. Slang; % l say shall enlarge
my dairy

the wife, emphasizing each "our'' with blow of
the poker upon the back of her cringing spouse.
Mr. Slang retreated under the bed. In passing
under the bed clothes, Mr. Slang's hat was brushed
off; Mr. Slang waited under cover several minutes,
waiting for calm. At length his wife saw him
thrusting his head out of the bed, much like tur-
tie from his shell.
What are you looking for Mr.. Slang?' said he.

The struggle was over, and ever since the above

A CLERICAL ATTEMPT TO g FORCE VoTE. Some
years ago, celebrated Methodist minister aud re-
viyast, well known for his eloquence and zeal in
converting souls, preaching in Louisville. The
feeling had got pretty well up, and night, after
very powerful" sermon, he came down from
the pulpit for the purpose of receiving the mourn
ers while the good old hymn of 5a4
.Canaan Oh Canaan I'm bound for the land of Canaan "
was struck up and chimed in by hundreds of voices
The hymn was concluded, but there were no pen-
tents at the altar. In vain he exhorted-his words
and appeals fell upon the of his listeners with
out exciting any emotion. At length he concluded
to make bold stroke and follow it up with test
and resuming the pulpit, after few words of ex
hortaton he solemnly announced that he would
put question, upon which he expected all to vote
III view of the estimation they placed upon their
souls. With finger raised most significantly, and in
a most solemn manner, he announced: An those
in favor Of Christ will please rise to their feet"
Only some eight or ten responded to the announce
ment; and while the minister was watching in
tensely for others to signify their position by rising
a worthy member who was on his feet, interfered
and suggested that the reason might be that the
true disciples were too modest to vote" At this
juncture loud voice was heard in the gallery: a
say, brother H, its no use talking or trying to
force this vote-this congregation is for the deuaby
at least twenty-five hundred major1tyt"

A FIGHT AND HIGH FALL.-The Grand Rapids
(Mich) Herald relates the following incident:
We have just heard that during a dance on Sat-
urday night last, in the town of Painfield, two men
by the name of Filkins came into the Hall and
wished to dance in the set then on the floor but
was told by one of the Post boys, who was acting
as hoor-manager, that there was not room for him
then, and he must wait until the next dance. To
this Fikns objected, and insisted on dancing then
and there. High words ensued, followed by blows.
The parties were separated, when another of the
Post boys interfered, one of the parties threaten
the other replied that /" they would both CO. them
They clinchad and, sure enough, they both did go
out of the third-story window, Post falling to the
ground. the other on top of him. Both are badly
hurt and ii is hardly expected that Post will live.
FiSins has been arrested, and is in Jail await
ing examination.

FIGHT BETWEEN A CENTIpEDE AND SHANGHAI
We were amused the other day at hearing an ac-
count of fierce battle between centipede, over
six inches in length, and Shanghai chicken, on the
premises of Mr. Carter, in Dallas. Both the belliger
ents showed pluck and fought well, but the shang-
hal was too much for his adversary, and after whip
ping him out in fair fight, swallowed the disgusting
insect legs and all, at effort, gave prolonged
crow, tapped his wings and walked offas proud, if
not pronder, than Napoleon after the peace of
Villafranca. The Shanghai has been closely watched
since that time, but shows no symptom of going
into decline. These insects are thought to be
very poisonous, and the one swallowed by the
chicken was an unusually large one. Mr. Carter
will vouch for the facts, was an eyewitness and
tried to separate the combatants, but could not.
Shanghai was fighting for his breakfast and not for
glory. dallas (TeN.) Herald.

How THE SHARK SHELTERS IT'S YoUHG.-The
young sharks, upon the sight of danger, slip in
thr danger is over, issue forth to their element
again. This assertion has been treated rather I'M
tremendously by some who are nothing if not
critical, and who have, with an expressive shake of
the head, limited their doubts whether, granting the
facle descent of the young into the parental stom-
ach, they ever get out again alive. For the benefit
of such sneerers, we beg to produce evidence
which none will gansay. For acute observation

miral Smyth against the field He relates how the
vast Maize Bank, the heads of which form the
dian Ocean, is surprisingly infested with sharks,
blue, white, tiger, hammerhead, and the rest of
them.
In January 1906, an enormous female monster
was taken in Maize Bay, while crushing round the
Cornwais with others Of her kind, and surrounded
by numerous progeny. The weather was SUI
perb, the water clear as crystal, and the vessel
seemed to sleep at her anchors, so that We saw
unwieldy fish was actually caught with a small
hook, which had been baited for rock-cod; and it
is surprising that her attempts to escape should not
have dsengaged her. except, perhaps, that the Pc
culiarity of her situation in measure prevented
full exercise of strength. On the first perception
of danger, and while she was being gently drawn
along side, all the young ones entered her mouth
to seek safety. With some difficulty and much
was the weight of the quarry, that it required the
fore and mainyard tackles to hoist her on board.
After giving sundry violent flaps on the deck, she
was oyerpowered though still exhibiting that as
tonlshing tenaety of life common to cold-blooded
creatures But now came the proof that what we
had seen was no deceptio eisus. On large cash
being made on the fore part of the belly, we saw
no fewer than thrty-eight young sharks tumble out

their mouths admitted mans head with ease,
