Throc FIghting Deacons.

The Cleveland Plaindealer is responsible for
the following;
In a small neighborhood in Geauga county,
live three deacons The first is Methodist,
the second Presbyterian, and the third Bap-
fist. All live quite distance from their re-
spective meeting houses, and as the travelling is
excessively bad at this time Of year they con-
cluded to hold meeting in the little red school
house in the neighborhood. The question then
arose which denomination should hold the first
meeting. The Methodist claimed the privilege
of opening the ball. The Presbyterian demand
ed it, The Baptist insisted upon it. Here was
"a fix"
They wrangled over the matter until the dam
der of each deacon arose to fever heat and each
vowed he would hold meeting at the red
schsoIhouse the very next evening, which hap
pened to be Friday last, aud on that evening
at early candle light, the schoolhouse was
crowded with Methodists, Presbyterians and
Baptists, and several worlds people.
The Presbyterian commenced reading cat
echsm. The Baptist at the same time, arose
and commenced reading tract on immersion.
The Methodist, at the same time, struck up an
old fashioned hymn, shouting it forth at the
top of his lungs. The effect was ludcrous. 1t
apparently struck the mixed congregation So,
for they all commenced laughing. The Baptist
WAS wheezy. lie sank exhausted into his seat,
while the Presbyterian and Methodist continued.
All at once the righteousness of the scene
struck the Baptist aud he INDUCED in pro.
tracted horse laugh. This displeased the Pres
byteran, and forgetting himself he dealt the
Baptist a stunning blow under the right ear.
The Methods. threw bis book down and rushed
to the Baptst's rescue lie arrived just in
time to receive the Presby terian's iron fist be-
tween his eyes. The Baptist and Methodist raj

but he was too much for them. The scene that
ensued beggars description. Chairs were over
turned window glass were broken, women
shrieked, men yelled. We have no wish to
make fun of an affair which has caused so much
profound regret among the religious people of
Geauga. We merely relate the facts; the mat
ter is in litigation. ~

THE Fun OF TIE FIdHT.--A New Yorker who
witnessed the fight between Heenan and Sayeri
was asked, at home, how Heenan acted. "Like
man" said he, 81 think he'd stopped in thai
ring till he'd died. lie took every blow in first
rate humor, and as long as his mug could show
smile, it had smile upon it. He tried to
laugh two or three times after Sayers had cut
him bad, but, 'pon my soul, his face was SO out
Of shape you could not tell whether he was
laughing or crying"
Well, how did Sayers appear?
"Wby. the more knock downs he got, the
better he seemed to fight. 1t didn't appear to
produce much effect on him, for he'd fall with
the blow, and when he was down would kick
bis legs up in saucy way, as lift was all sport;
d--est sort Of fun | ever see."
