One day last week, Mrs. Hunt procured
for her fve-year-old boy a fishing tackle
suitable for Young America to experiment
with in the art sOpleasing both to boys and

tempting grasshopper. In little while
the mother hearing a shout of exultation
from Willie, ran out just in time to see
one of her best hens fast winding up the

troubled look of his mother, quietly re-

The Russian Army.

The Russian army is now under
going reorganization. A semi-off-
cial Russian journal publishes some
details which, it states, have been OBJ
tanned from the most authentic sour
ces. Henceforth the Russian forces
will be divided into troops of the
line and local troops. In time of
war there will also be formed troops
of reserve, and in case of extreme ur-
gency anational militia will be called
out. The troops of the line will re-
tain, with few variations, their pres
ent org IMITATION. The local tro ops
will be organized upon perfectly
new basis. Until now they have
been composed of very heterogene-
GUS elements. They include regi-
ments, battallions, and companies
for special fortress service, battal-
ions for district service, local com
panies, squadrons, and batteries for
reserve, and others. This diversity
of organization and denomination
will now cease. The chief object of
these local troops under their new or
ganization will be to provide in time
Of war cadres for troops of reserve
infantry and artillery, and regiments
de noarche of all arms. During
peace the local troops will be en-
ployed in home duties, in the in
struction of recruits, and periodical
assemblages of men of furlough and
in the reserve. In time of war the
army will, according to the scheme
laid down amount to 1888 men,
with 50,954 officers of all ranks.

An Old Pioneer Gone.-Mr. Samuel
Haford, who resided at BallvilIe, departed
this life, on Saturday last, at noon. His death
had been expected for some time, owing to his
advanced age, and at the time stated he passed
peacefully away Mr.. Hafford was born in
Massachusetts,, April 9Th, 1870, and he was
therefore in his SD year. In 1888 he removed
to this vicinity where he resided ever since.
He was prominent member of the Presbyte-
rian Church of this place, with which he con-
nected himself by letter, Immediately after
moving here. In lS4l he was elected one of
the Elders of the Church, and continued in
that capacity until the time of his death, hav-
ing served the church over thirty years. Not
withstanding the clustering weather of Mon
day, his funeral was well attended. The fu-
neral discourse was preached by the Rev. DR..
BUSHNELL at the Presbyterian Church, after
which the body was taken in charge by the
Masonic fraternity, and buried with the i'm
posing ceremonies of that order. Brother
Hafford was said to be one of the oldest if not
the oldest Mason in the country, he having
connected himself with the order in 1911, the
night he was twenty-one years of age. He
had therefore been a member of the order for
nearly 81 years. He was one of the charter
members of Fort Stephenson Lodge of this
city, but sometime after the organization of
Brainard Lodge, he withdrew and connected
himself with the new lodge in which he re-
tained his membership up till the time of his
death. He was widely known, much loved
and respected and has passed to his reward at
a ripe old age, leaving a rich legacy in his
good name, to his surviving family.

a Haunted House.-Somewhere in the
neighborhood Of Huron Junction, on the B g.
o. Railroad, some nine or ten miles south of
Sandusky, is an old house, in which until
quite recently resided an aged couple A few
days ago this couple removed from the old
house into one of more recent construction,
taking most of the household furniture with
them. They had left at the old place, how
ever, a few things, which they designed re-
moving at their convenience. Among other
things thus left was an old clock, an ancient
spinning wheel, and some other things, whose
intrinsic value was not great, but which were
considered worth keeping on account of their
being heir-looms in the family. These things
were left as before stated, with full confidence
that they would not be disturbed, the owner
little thinking that evil spirits were to enter
and do mischief. In this he was mistaken,
as the sequel will show.
Last Thursday being set apart as a day, of
Thanksgiving, four sprightly youths from this
city took 1t into their heads to see what they
could do in the way of hunting quail, possums
or whatever game might chance to come in
their way, and shey got on the cars and in due
time were set of at Prout's Station. They hunt
ed around the neighborhood with what sue
cess we did not learn, until they came in sight
of the deserted house, which they entered
without even knocking. We do not say they
naQ deem QTnklnSy IOE We DeleVe Lney were
all eminently sober. But they were in for
spree IL the deserted house, and they very
soon commenced operations. The spinning
wheel went spinning across the room and
landed so suddenly that we think it cannot be
repaired. The 'sippery" boys, one of them,
by the way, being more "slppery" than the
rest, then slipped Up stairs, which at the time
had bannister on them, and seizing the clock
keeled it down stairs inquick time. That clock
wasn't worth much as a time-keeper after it
landed at the bottom. So they went through
the deserted house. They had not quiet fin
ished their work, however, when who should
pop in upon them but the veritable proprietor
Of the homestead himself Of course they
could not deny the soft impeachment, and one
of them offered to deposit his entire pile to
settle the thing, but the old gentleman COR
sidered it insufficient, and learning the names
of the party, ne came to town and threatened
arrest. This was avoided by each one paying
twenty-five dollars. So the thing was settled,
and we opine the hunters consider it a very
expensive Thanksgiving day to them.-San-
dt4Sky Journal.
