recent ones are the following
Some 80 years ago, Adams ThOrnton, resi-
dent of Lyman, and notorious for his rum pro
pensities, used to come up to Lower Waterford
aud purchase his supplies at the store Of Hiram
Cutting On one occasion he came up very
thirsty, and wanted Cutting to gipe him drink.
Cutting, who never lost an opportunity for fun.
told him If he would lie down with his mouth
under the faucet, be would turn into him sl the
rum he could drink and make no charge The
proposition was accepted st once. and in the pre-
sence Of the store louDgers, Thornton dropped
upon his back, and opened his rum hole. Cut
ting turned the stream on gently at irst, il
creasing it by degrees, and giving the Old fellow
all he could possibly do to keep up. At last
he let on the full force of the faucet, which per
fecily deluged the man, filing his lungs, eyes
and nose, and almost strangling him. When he
recovered himself, he thanked Cutting for his
generosity, but told him ne should buy his rum

Dsnville, and left in his cellar, which was Sc
curely locked, full tub of pork. In the sum

Sometime afterwards Philbrick * Smith, oou-

A Western young lady insisted, the other
day, on new right" She went into her
brothers room and Sound pOcket-pistOl lying
on table. She examined ii and her limited
experience told her it was not loaded. She went
into an adjoining room, and pointed the weapon
at a newly married couple They sbiured her
to lover the weapon but she refused to do it, and
then they got out of the room and went head
first down long pair Ofstsirs. The young lady
then went into her mothers room and pointed
the pistol at every person present, frightening
them nearly to death, and once absolutely
snapped the trigger of the weapon She was
finally secured and the thing taken away from
her after which her cheeks we're souudlv
cufed, as they should have been, though she
persisted that the affair was merely Joke.
When her brother came home, however, it was
discovered that the pistol ,cds loaded all the
time ; when the young lady took to weeping and
Mysteries and was put to bed There is Lesson here;
but it is useless to give it. People will plsy with
dangerous weapons, and when they kill other
people nothing will be done toward their punish
ment 1t is probable, however, that the Young
lady in question will never, hereafter, touch
pistol without frat stuthng the muzzle Of it full

MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY ~ lLLINois.-An
extraordinary instance Of this Is thus recorded in
the Chicago Tribune:
At the Central school house, in Clear Creek
township, there has recently been a strange
scene enacted, productive Of much excitement
Three preachers wishing to proftably employ
their time during the long winter evenings, con-
clude1 that protrsettd meeting at that par
ticulsr school house was directly in their line Of
duty. ghe sub-director, thinking that the use
of the school house for such purposes might
materially interfere with the success Of the pub
lie school then in session, refused permission to
so holl the meeting. Not to be deferred by Oh
stacles, the preachers, and the congregation
they had cslled took possession OF the house
The director locked the preachers broke in.
The director resorted to various devices to so
fasten the door 10 keep them out, but the
preachers effected an entrance lie finally went
inside and firmly screwed plank across the door
into the castings. The preachers were members
of the church militant, and equal to the emer-
gency They battered in the door. taking the
casing along with it. The director rather felt
whipped. He did not see how he was going to
keep them out, and didn't try any more The
school is thoroughly broken up. The last that
we heard Of the matter was that constable with
a state warrant was in anxious pursuit Of the
preachers.
