AnecdOte of the Wah

Captain H., formerly of the Massat
chusetts Volunteers, was noted for being
a wag, and fond of his Joke. He relates
the following anecdote of his hotel ex-
perience in Washington. Anybody who
visited Washington during the late war,
and had the good fortune to secure
quarters at the great canavansary known
as Willard's," must have experienced
the remarkable aptitude and ingenuity
which "mine host or his clerks dis
played in the matter of "piling on the
extras " when making out the bills.
Captain H. was about taking his de-
parture, and therefore called for his
bill. The bill was brought to his room,
where he was busily engaged in the not
agreeable occupation of packing up his
traps" Among the items " on the
bill appeared one for three bottles of
champagne, while orr friend could only
plead guilty to having ordered one pint
of porter. Requesting the officious and
astonished contraband" to send the
landlord to him, he continued his pack
ing. After much delay the indignant
Boniface presented himself, greatly in
censed at being summoned to wait upon
guest-something quite unusual for
an American landlord to do. On enter
ing the room he found Captain H. in q
state of profuse perspiration, trying his
utmost to force very large pair of
cavalry boots into very small valise.
"Well, sir, what do you wish with me p
quoth the irate Bonitace. 81 wish you
would show me how to get these boots
into my valise," replied H. What
have I to do with packing your luggage,
sir? That is not my business" y" u
suppose not" quietly replied the Cap.
tain "but since you are SO successful
in crowding three bottles of champagne
into pint of porter, as appears on my
bill, I thought you could snow me how
to get these boots into this valise."

Regarding the assertion thatthe mur-
derer, James Pickett, whois to be hanged
in Idaho for the murder of an Indian
woman, is the first white man who has
been legally tried and executed for the
murder of an Indian, a correspondent
of the Missouri Republican recalls a
previous case of this kind. The writer
saws that in 1924 a man namef Hendson
was tried, sentenced, and hanged for
the murder of Seneca Indian at the
town of Pendleton, in Indiana.

WHAT IS THE MATTER?-Last
winter a Lyceum was gotten up in
this city, AID meetings were held all
winter. There were many interest
ing debates and essays, and some of
the members seemed always to enjoy
the meetings. At the commence
ment of the warm weather, the meet
irgs were adjourned over for the sum
mer months; this fall, meetings were
appointed, but a quorum has never
assembled, aud it seems as if it is De
termined to let the matter go by de
fault.
Some weeks ago a Young Mems
Christian Association, was formed
which seemed destined to take the
place in some measure, of the
Lyceum. A number Of gentlemen
enrolled themselves as members, of
fcers were elected, and matters seem
cd to start along briskly, but the
meetings have always been sllmly
attended, and there is very little in.
terest taken in the matter, compared
to what there should be.
We happened into the meeting Of
the Association on last Monday
right. and found not more than half
dozen members present
Why is ibis? Is there so little
intellect amongst the young men OF
Huntington, that no literary or
christian Association can be support
ed? 1t may be answered that it was
dark and rainy on Monday evening.
So it was, but what excuse is that Tor
men?
There are two or three b undreG
young men in this city, who as a
general rule, spend their evenings in
idIeness, or something worse; will
they not listen to the call for mem
bers of the ciaiion, and attend
the meetings CT the Christina As
sociatiou. 1t will do them good.
1t is proposed to open free Read
ing room, that shall be open day and
ui ght, and to fu nish other innocent
mems OF amusement

Those Sidewalks.
TO THE EDITOR OF TIE npErKspKsr.

TO THE EDITOR oP THE INDEPENDENT.
My attention has been attracted by
q communication in the last Argus
signed Citizen which oensures our
city fathers, for some regard to the
interests ofthcse who live in the sub
urbs of this city.
notice also, the very non-com-
initial comments of the editor Of that
paper, who performs very credilabiy
the feat of sitting 90 two chairs q,
once. But | think there are always
two ways in which to consider ques-
tion,-ope from our side,-and one
from your side.
We iu West Huntington have the
misfortune to be within the corporate
limits Of the city; VIC pay school tax
and all other city taxes, aud unless
our children have d way to 90 to
school, what do We get in return?
There are no streets in our part of
the town to be taken care of; there
is no police officer here there is re-
ally no expeo dilure for us, and yet
parties are mbling because The
council gives us means by which
We and our children may get to the
settled part Of the town, without get
ting knee-deep in the mud.
1t is the same way 10 the Eastern
part Of the city; and the same reasons
apply there.
But where is the great harm done
The expense Ct these walks. two sin-
gle planks, side by side, is not very
heavy; of that expense, one half falls
on the property owuers,-the Central
Land Company,--and the other half
on the city; as the Central Land
Company pays SOD eNhcrc about half
Of the taxes, it follows that the citi-
zens really do not pay more than one
fourth Of the cost; this amount will
be much more than repaid in the ad
vlntages derived generally from
these walks; their use IL attending
to business; the tendance Of the
children at school, aud the benef =.

LOST! LOsT!-It is reported at
this writing that the hunting party
that started from here last week,
came very near being lost in cave
on the Alleghanies. They went 10,
so the story goes, and found large
cham Der in the cave, that seemed
empty; they built fire, 1t being
cold day, and sat down to eat their
snack. While they we're eating, they
heard a chorus of deep growls, and
on looking around, they found the
had made their FIRE in the hyberna-
ting place of some bears. There were
seventeen full grown bears, and
eleven cubs, and some Of them were
between the party and the entrance
to tie cave. Our informant, when
he saw what a tight place they were
in, jumped on the backs Of the bears
and scrambled over them, and made
his escape, He could not tell wheth
er his companions were torn to pieces
ornot.
LATER, We lrpr0 that they w"rc
not bears; they we're some kind Of
cats. the KIDD that have q peculiar
scent, and run up poles. The Cats
we're not considered fair game, 50 the
party consented, to let them slide.

THAT PAY OARl-It is a splendid
thing to have a scapegrace, on which
20 blame our short comings. Every
body who cannot pay their debts now
blames it on the pay car; the pay car
hasn't come, is the excuse for all
sorts Of things; if you pitch into q
shoemaker or a tailor for not getting
his work done, be blames it on the
pay car.
If a trader asks too much for a
pair of chickens, he says he can't af-
ford to sell them for less, for the Pay
car hasn't come.
When the children get too late for
school, they say they can't help it.

goes.
