BuDgtt Of Fun.



The White Pine Neus, of the 18th ult.,
says: .-.....-.
Yesterday morning a young man named
John G. =, living near Treasure city,
in tit OF dependency threw himself head
foremost into thirty-foot shaft. At noon
two men happened along and discovered a
coat and hat at the edge If the shaft. On
looking into the shaft they discovered the sore
headed young man trying to come to the sur.
face, and scratching gravel like the mischief.
They procured rope and hauled HIM up.
Strange to say, the only injuries he received
were sprained ankle and few scratches on
the side of the head. The young mans rea-
sOl for the rash act was the receipt Of letter
from Harrisburg, Pa, announcing the mar
rage of his first love to another TELLER. He
forthwith few to saloon aud: commenced
throwing in the gin-slIngs. For two days he
practiced before the bar trying to forget his
first love. Yesterday morning he awoke and
found himself in his own cabin, with nothing
to cheer his spirits-not even a cocktail in
sight.

A gentleman in northwestern Missouri be-
came the father of fine boy, which he natur-

Here was a chance to win a reputation for
generosity without expense. So he offers q
premium of 800 for the prettiest baby to be
exhibited at an approaching fair. There
were nine entries, comprising seven whites and
two negroes, and one of the negroes car
ried off the prize.

dler kept one for pet, who usually sat on the
counter. A COuntryman came in one day. the
proprietor being IN the back room. The Gus
toner, seeing saddle that suited him, asked
the price.
Monkey SAID nothing.
Customer SAID, 'Il give you $50 for IT,
laying down the money, which monkey shov-
eled into the drawer.
The man then took the saddle, but the
monkey mounted him, tore his hair, scratched
his face, and the frightened customer scream
ed for dear life. Proprietor rushed in and
wanted to know what's the fuss.
"Fuss q said customer, Fuss! l bought a
saddle of your son sitting there, and when I
went to take it he wouldn't let me have it."
The saddler apologized for the monkey, but
assured him that he was no relation.

TankIng a Swim.

Out in Ohio, last week, twenty Bap-
tist clergymen, who were attending a
Convention, went down to secluded
spot on the river bank, in the after
noon, for the purpose of taking a swim.
These score of brethren removed their
clothing and placed it upon the rail
road track close at hand, because the
grass was wet Then they entered the
water and enjoyed themselves. Pres
emily an express train came around
the curve at the rate of forty miles an
hour, and before any of the swimmers
could reach dry land, all those under
shirts and socks and things were hut.
tering from the cow-catcher, and
speeding onward toward Kansas. II
was painful for the brethren-exceed.
ing painful-because all the clothing
that could be found, after careful
search, was a sun umbrella ard a pail
of eyeglasses. And they do say that
when those twenty marched home by
the refulgent light of the moon, that
evening, in single file, and keeping
close together, the most familiar &C
quaintance with the Zouave drill, or
the part of the man at the head, with
the umbrella, still hardly sufficed tC
cover them completely. They fell
conspicuous, somehow; and the situa
tion was made all the more embarrass
ing, because that night all the Dorca:
societies, and the woman's Rights Con
ventions and the pupils at the female
boarding school, seemed to he pranc
ing around the streets, and running
across the route Of the parade. Most
of the brethren are now down on i'm
mersion, and altogether in favor of the
use Of water only in sprinkling.
