A Tough Goose Story.

There once lived in Northern town, not
many miles from Conway, New Hampshire, an
eccentric individual, by the name Of Fogg.
whose fame as story-teller was known for
many miles around. Here is ore:
"NIv house is situated in glen, some six
miles distant from the stage road Between
Conway and where l lived was pond six
miles in circumference. l. so happened one
time early in the spring that had been out
late, and in coming home discovered flock
Of geese as they were just alghring in the
pond. Rising carly in the morning, built
my fire in the fire place, and taking down the
shooting iron, started for the pond to try
my luck. Arriving On the shore, I found to
my sorrow that they we're out of gunshot and
to fire at that distance would be sheer folly.
While stood contemplating what to do, fox
came down to the waters edge and stood
snufing the air Ny first thought was to
shoot him. but on reflection [ concluded to see
what he would do. The fox in the meantime
entered the water and was swimming for tie
geese, which were huddled together, about
half mile ON the shore. After swimming
within few yards of them, he suddenly dis
appeared, and in a few minutes goose was
drawn under the water; then Rcynard re
turned on his homeward passage, and landed
his burden on the shore; then, returning
again, brought another, until finally he got
the whole flock; and when he brought the
last one, I shot him. When came to pick
up the geese, found that [ had fifty nice
ones, which l lugged home, together with the
fox and the gun The old woman had not
breakfast quite ready then" But, Mr.. Fosg,
the fox to capture the geese, had to swim a
mile for each goose, and consequently the fox

Autumn Runs Away with Spring, and Spring

Upon the arrival of the Missouri Pacific

No sooner had they touched the platform than
there came rush like the sweep of hawk
upon its quarry, and for few moments all
that was visible amid the furry was a broad
shouldered, jean clothed farmer grasping the
boy aforesaid by the collar and kicking away

The boy never struggled particle, but shrunk

What particular consequences ieht have
ensued to that lad if his treatment had been
kept up much longer, we are unable to de-
termine for fortunately the police interfered,
and it Immediately developed that the ma
troniy looking woman was the wife of the far
mr.. and that she had run away from her
l,rd and master with this interesting boy.
His (the farmers) name was Thomas Houg-
ton, or Horton, and his home was at Carthage,
a town in the suburbs Of Cincinnati, where
he had lived happily with his wife ever since
their marriage, some ten years since.
The boy had been in the employ Of the
farmer for several months, and had seemed an
honest, faithful lad, and rather devoid of
brains. He had never suspected anything
wrong in his domestic affairs until one night
last week he came home from his days labors
to find his wife and the boy gone, with only a
note from the former that she could not love
him any more"
We are unable to learn anything of the
cause Of the clopemeat, but whatever it was,
a compromise was effected, the whole part
