MIGGINBOTrOM's PORCH.

The Peoria REVIEW observes: "There is
nothing so nice as having good porch in front
of your house, unless, indeed, 1t is having the
porch built Mr.. Hiram Higginbottam, Of
Monson street, has Just got new porch com
pleted 1t is a small affair, not over ten feet
long, but it took seven weeks TO build it. The
first week carpenter came to the house, climbed
over the fence, set his tool-bOx down on fine
moss rose-bush, and solemly made some
measurements, put some marks on the house,
and went away.
Nobody cams for a week when another car
penler came up with pair of trestles and an
armful of saws and things. lie carried his tres
tles into the front hal hung his saws on the bat
rack, looked Vacantly around aud mysterlously
disappeared. The evening Mrs. Higginbottam
rather snappishly asked Mr.. II. if he intended
TO get the men 10 work on that porch. lie
sighed gIoOmly and said they would get started
about next week Along toward the middle Of
the week third carpenter came up, jerked
down the SAWS planted the trestles in the ILiddle
of the Oldest OF Miss HigginbOttam'a veFbeRa
bed and began TO saw inI rlOusy.
Two or three dayA HlteT labOrer came and
dur place for the mgsns 10 lay the wall,
and threw dirt all over the gravel walk, and
then a man came and emptied cart load Of
bricks on the tulip bed. Then The masons
came and threw mortar all over that part of
the township, getIiag little OF it everywhere
except between the bricks That was the only
safe place. Finally the lumber for the porch
arrived. was hurled madly over the fence, blot
Ting out the last traces Of flower garden in the
front yard, aud sending the grass plat in -
partial ecliPse. -.
Then there was business. The entire yard
vas two feet deep in Hhavings and sawdust, and
eight-peney nails peTmeated the very hash. One
narning Mr. HigginbOttam opened the front
door. and was Immediately afterward disagree
nblv surprised 10 learn that a short ladder vas
laanlng against that door, with carpenter and a
tool box on the top round. Nobody seemed "a
en;ov the consequent incident 80 much as the
tool box. The carpenter and Mr.. Higginbottanl
held a brief conversation, in which their re-
marks. though filfnl, were earnest, and appeared
10 have reference to the COpperas creek dam, Oh
some ether dam, and Mr.. II. went down 10 his
Office shaking chisels, bits, gOuges, strait-edges
and nails Of various denominations out Of his hair
and sleeves. -
The porch is done now. One day the eArperc
tiers scraped up everything portable about lhf
DFemises and slid away. The porch stan6ssa
lille awTy, Is higher at one end than Al the 9th
eF. and stands about three inches from the hOusS
and The roof leaks, but the Higginboltamses aFS
satisfied and don't want any repairs made. The
var looks as if Mr.. HigginbOttam had been pas
turing three or four streaks Of chain lightning
Ia n ior week or two, and they had been untis
ualIy restiye and prone TO g0uge things. Bal
these are trines compared with ths comfort O.
having anew porch.

ths heasts show all degrees OF intoxication. Then
the negroes appear. The drinkers are too far gone
