| pHILADELPHIA-W TO LAUGH
FOR $500.
William Bennett, better known
as Laughing Bill, the champion
laugher Of the United States, is
now visiting New York, and is
stopping at French's Hotel. \
reporter was yesterday introduced
to him, and obtained from him
the following facts in regard to
his laughing propensities and his
wonderful ability as a laughist
generally. Laughing Bills halls
from Philadelphia, where he was
born in 1927. He is 4 stout, thick
set man, with q jolly round face,
fair complexion, ruddy cheeks,
and blue eyes. lie is 5 FEET 6 in
ches in height, ~ inches around
the waist, and weighs 200 pounds.
1t is as natural for Laughing
Bill to laugh and be jolly as it is
for some mvn to be solemn and
melancholy. If his hair was white
and his beard frosted. he would
be the very personiticatlon of San
ia Claus. as he is represented ev-
cry Christmas to the admiring
gaze Of millions of children all
over Christendom.
PHILADELPHIA IN A ROAR.
In Philadelphia, there is scarce.
ly man, woman, or child but
what knows Laughing Bill.
"The first time" said he, "that
l was brought into public atten-
tion in Philadelphia was in 1863.
1t wos the evening Of the day of
election for State officers. Andrew
e. Curtin was the Republican can
didatc, and Henry D. Foster the
Democratic candidate. Chestnut
street was throngcd with thou
sands of people to learn what the
election returns were. As soon
as the result was definitely deter
mined, and it was known that
Curtin was elected, | commenced
laughing, moving at the same
time through the immense crowd
up Chestnut street, laughing i'll
my loudest and most exultant
tones. Ny voice could be heard
three squares in the clear night
air. Ny laugh was infectious, as
you know" appealing to the re-
porter, "a good square, honest
laugh always is, Well, sir, BY
George, it wasn't more than a
minute and a-half before at least
three thousand people were laugh
ing as they never laughed before.
1t amused me to hear the various
tones Of the laughers, which sup

to keep up and prolong the period
of enjoyment. All the various
degrees of a laugh: from the coarse
and loud guffaw to the quick and
spasmodic cackle, could be heard.
What added to my enjoyment of
the occasion was that | knew that
the crowd did not know what
they were laughing it, but only
laughed because others did. This
was something unprecedented in
Philadelphia, or indeed anywhere
else under similar circumstances.
1t was the talk Of the whole city
next day. The age, Democratic
newspaper, ia an article upon the
result Of the election, referred to
the laughing Of the crowd, and
called me a Laughing lunatic,' and
said that the people who were in
duccd by me to laugh in that alb
surd manner were a set of fools. y

A LAUGHING MATCH.


Here the scene and the occasion
seemed to come in their full force
upon Laughing Bill, and he in-
dulged in a brief cachinnation. II
was the first time the reporter hid
an opportunity Of Judging what q
splendid laughcr he is. He lau ghed
all over. His whole body seemed
to Join in it, and yet there was no
apparent effort used by him. 1t
bubbIed up naturally, and music
ally as the notes OF song issue
from the mouth Of Il prima donna.

Bill, some few years ago, | ar
rived at Chambersburg, Pa. You
must know I'm q stove drummer
for a Philadelphia mandatory,
and travel a great deal. l had
heard there was great laugher
in Chambersburg, and therefore
thought I should like to meet
him. By George, as I entered
the National Hotel | encountered
him. l am sorry / can't give his

because he was laughing at the
time, and because there was GER

me that he was a genuine laugher.

DO Nor DESpIsE SMALL Things.
The possibility Of great change
being introduced by very slight
beginnings may be illustrated by
the tale which Lockmann tells of
q vizier, who, having offended his
master, was condemned to pcrpet-
ual captivity in q lofty tower. At
night his wife came to weep be-
low his window. "Ccase your
grief" said the sage; go home
for the present, and return hither
when you have procured a live
black beetle, together with 4 little
ghce Cor buffaloe's butter), three
clews, one Of the finest silk, an
other Of stout packthread, and an.
other Of whlpcord; finally, stout
coil Of rope" When she again
came to the foot of the tower,
provided according to her hus-
bands commands, he directed her
to touch the head of the insect
with little Of the ghee, to tie one
end OF the silk thread around him,
and to place the insect on the
wall of the tower. Seduced by
the smell Of the butter, which he
conceived was in store somewhere
above him, the beetle continued to
ascend till he reached the top,
and thus put the end Of the silk
thread in possession Of the vizlcr,
who drew up the packthread by
means Of the silk, the small cord
by means of the packthread: and
by means Of the cord, Il stout rope
capable Of sustaining bis ow1
weight-and SO at last escaped
from the place Of his confinement.

Convention, these are sufficient to- con-
DENIM in the Judgment Of WeatNrginiR,
For fifty years we have complained Of
unequal representation In the old State.
During all that time we had petlLloned
that our eastern brethren should remove
that brand of inferiority from us We had
sent our ablest men to the Conventions OF
1881 and 1859, who had pleaded and de-
manded that taxation and representation
should be equal and uniform, but the
voice Of a Campbell, Jacobs, and Sum,
mers, was unheard, and the new Consti.
tuition Of each Of these Conventions still
left the sting to rankle and tester in the
sensitive hearts Of the men Of the west.
We had come to look at the old State
seal with the foot Of the victor upon the
neck Of the PROSTATE enemy as q fair repre-.
sentation Of the naughty bearing Of the
East to the West, and that our State mot.
to instead Of reading, "sic Semper Tmdn.
nus" lever SO to tyrants,) should more
truthfully read, "ISic Semper Montant"
lever so TO mountaineers.) When the civil
war OF 1890 came, could itbe wondered at
that the people west of the AIlerhenies
were ready for a separate and independ.
cnt State.
Such assumptions OF political sscepden.

may not cost us, who are agrieved, an ex.
ira dollar in the way of taxes; but it is the
principle of which we complain, tis
that which sends the blood tinrlipp in re-.

Resolutions Adopted by the Baptist
sabbath School In regard to the
Death of Willie Abbey.

AT a meeting OF the Baptist Sab
bath school, Sardis, Miss, August
1872, the following resolutions in
regard to the death OF little Willie
Abbey, aged seven years, wLo died
suddenly Of congestion on the morn
ing of the ninth instant, were read
ard adopted
WHEREAS, The Angel of Death
has entered our school and the seat
of our much loved little Willie
among us is vacant forever. In
view of this painful event, severing
the ties of affection and friendship
which bound us to him, we, the Off
GERS and teachers of the school and
his fellow scholars, deem it proper
to place on record the following ex>
preston of our feelings:
Resolved, That while We lament
his removal from US, it is our priv
llege not to sorrow as without hope,
feeling as we do that tor him to die
must be gain eternal.
Resolred, That his decease should
solemnly aud effectually remind us
how brief our own %soiourn on earth
may be, and at how early an hour
we too may be summoned to stand
in the presence of God, and with
what diligence it becomes us to seek
first His Kingdom and righteousness,
lest the night Of death overtake us
unawares aud u%nprepared.
Resolved, That we tender the
stricken household our heartfelt
coincidence in the sore stroke which
has fallen on them, with the hope
that through the aid of grace divine
they may learn to look on this
affection even now as they will look
on it when He who awaits their
coming in the skies shall greet them
there.
Resolred, That these resolutions
be entered on the minutes of the
school, communicated to the family
of our beloved comparison and pub
lished in the Pamela Star.
