and shortly after messages were sent and
received between the lovers-Laura hav-
ing brought the end of the water pipe
close to her window, and Henry had his
end of the line directly beneath his pill
low, where, after he was 'off tour he
would whisper words of undying affec-
tion that only ended when he fell asleep
and the pipe slipped out of his mouth.
But while 'love giggled at the lock-
Smiths the blacksmith was preparing to
snort right out at love; for one day,
while Laura was at dinner, her father
had, while looking around her room, dis
covered the misplaced pipe, and while
gazing with critics eye at the strange
spectacle, was more startled by the soft
words coming apparently from the cistern,
" Laura, dear, is the old man round 2"
Mr.. Hewitt smelt mouse, he did more
than that; he inhaled the odor of a gen.
uine wharf rat; but saying nothing, he
merely descended the stairs and returned
with a pint of oily-looking liquid, which
he handled with extreme care. Making
a cartridge of paper that would hold near
the whole Of the mixture, he inserted it
in the pipe several feet, and then placing
a long bar of iron upon that, called out
loudly enough to be heard through car
fridge, pipe, and all, "Henry, my dear,
are you there Z" Quickly came the faint
reply, " Yes, Laura" "Place your ear

gine house, in mid air, followed by the
gable end of the Hewitt mansion.
And now for the sequel In his anxi-

remained too near the pipe, and when the
glycerine went off he did also, and was
picked up in Armstrong county few
days later. But where was Henry p
Instead Of applying his ear to the hole,
he had stepped to the derrick for mo-
ment, during which time the explosion
occurred. He was only stunned, and
few moments later met his betrotbed run
ming to see if he was hurt They fled at
once to a neighboring justice of the
peace and were married. They have
patched up the old house and are happy,
though the mysterious disappearance of
their father was a subject of conversation
for months after This is the story as
told by an old man who lives near Henry
and Laura, who heard the noise, and al
so saw where the ground had been torn
up by the fathers vengeful experiment.
If any one doubts the story, the derrick
is still to be seen.

Taken for a Horse Thief.

A young Maine, man, who is engaged
IA in the commercial travelling bust
ness for Chicago house, was recently
travelling out in the far West, when he
was taken possession of on the train by
two men who simply informed him that
they were officers and wanted him. He
expostulated, explained, demanded expla-
nations, ETC., but all in vain. No one on
the train knew him, and there were those
who did know the officers. All he could
get out Of them was that he was the man
they wanted In this way he was taken
80 miles into the interior. Upon his
arrival he had no longer to remain in
ignorance of his supposed offence, the
whole village being out to welcome him
with such cries as Here's the id
horse thief caught at last and Lets
string him up"
The officers made some show of resis-
tance, but the excited mob took posses
sion Of their victim and marched him
into town, near the center of which a
moose was already strung over the limb
Of tree. Our friend thought it was all
up with HIM sure. Expostulation was
received with derision Every body rec
ognized him as a notorious horse thief
whose depradations in the vicinity had
been long continued and extensive. A
horse-thief in that section is looked upon
as something worse than an average mur-
derer. There was not plying eye in
the crowd and the universal howl was to
lynch him. He tried to pray, but the
commercial travelling business had ruined
him for praying. While waiting under
the moose happy thought struck him !
His Masonry! He was a Royal Arch Mason
In all that crowd there must be Masons
He gave the Grand Hailing Signal of
Distress . We are not at liberty to ex-
plain how it is done for several reasons,
the chief one ofwhich is,we don't know it,
But he gave it, and in an instant one of
the foremost citizens of the town sprang
to his side, and he gave some more Ma
sonic signals, and the prisoner was quick
ly surrounded with twenty or thirty de-
termined men, who held the crowd at bay
with drawn pistols, Our friend explain
ed to the leading man who he was they
organized committee of Investigation
telegraphed to Chicago and verified all
his statements; and the brutal mob skunk
away heartily ashamed Our friend was
made as comfortable as possibleby his
Masonic friends, but he says he never
experienced such intense anxiety as he
did when he stood under that moose.
The above is strictly true in all essen
tial points. We have the names of
parties and places. The young man has
one or two brothers living in Chicago.
The man who rescued him proved to be
an old friend of his fathers.

The cable has of late been laden with odd
inconsistencies regarding the Spanish Minis
terial crisis. A new Cabinet appears to have
been chosen at last. Were it not for the fact
that the contradictory dispatches which have
been flashed across now acquire a certain
coherency, we should be sceptic about the
veracity of the latest news.
Sehor Zorrillas Ministerial list is, however,
still incomplete, and the choice of the most
important functionary yet wanting. The Min
lister for Foreign Affairs may prove STUN
bling block to the new combination. Senior
Zorrias Cabinet has in it elements of
popularity. 1t is entirely constituted
Of prog1eSistos or members of the
old liberal party, which upset the throne OF
Queen Isabella and insured the success OF
the revolution. Senior. Gorilla is credited
with honesty of purpose and abilities OF
a high order, even by his opponents, and his
appointment tends to conciliate the rcpubli-
cans, as he is known to be in favor of a libe-
raj policy. 1t is, however, probable that
Serranos party, which is left out, will oppose
the arrangement
