Novel Duck Hunting.

An ingenious Minnesota youth is to
be credited with novelty in the way
of duck hunting. He lives at beau
tiful spot known as Rice Lake, from
the wild rice growing on its margin
as thick as wheat in field Ducks
love this rice, and when they have
partaken Of a sufficient quantity their
flesh becomes of o nature to tempt the
palate of an anchoritc. But the Rice
Lake ducks, either from experience,
or an instinct which may be said to
be wisdom intensified, do not like hui
man company, and whom they see q
hunter approaching generally hasten
out Of gunshot range. Dick, the youth
before alluded to, was particularly
fond of ducks, and looked with con.
tempt upon the futile efforts Of his
sire to provide the table with this deli.
cacy. He determined to have some
ducks for dinner If II took all the
morning to accomplish the task. Pro.
ceeding to tho cornfold he selected q
largo pumpkin, cut hole in one end
removed its internal arrangements,
carried it down to the Shore -divosted
himself Of his clothes, placed the
pumpkin over his head and waded in
among tho rice. In q short time the
fat and tender pioneer of flock Of
ducks approached, and imagining the
vegetable to be free from guile, on.
couraged the others to follow. They
were partaking of their matutinal
moal, when astonishmcnt struck them
at the sight of the pioneer Suddenly
diving--not that there is anything
astonishing in duck diving-but this
one dove feet foremost and neglected
to come up. A committee Of one was
appointed to investigate, and ap-
preaching the pumpkin, suddenly made
a backward dive and was gone. This
was enough for tho others. They fed
in dsmay, and henceforth numbered
as among their deadlicst tcrro-s the
ingredient of Now England pics,

Things Generally.

Last Sunday night during the SER
mon in our church the gas suddenly
went out and there was complete
darkness. The minister requested the
congregation to remain perfectly quiet
until the trouble could be ascertained
and other lights procured. Old Mrs.
Smiley it appears was sound asleep
when the accident occurred, but Just as
the clergyman had finished speaking
to the congregation she awoke. At
first she thought she had become blind,
but as she sat by the window she i'm
mediately saw the light in the street
and then she knew that the congrega-
ton had gone home and that she had
accidently been locked in by the sex
ton. Dreadfully frightened at the
loneliness and the horror of her situa-
tion she picked up hymn book and
dashing it through pane Of glass in
the window she put her head out and
began TO scream for help. Her shrek
impressed passers-by with the idea
that the church WINS on FIRE, and in an
instant the alarm was given. A mo-
ment later the engines arrived and
just as the sexton began to light tho
gas again, one gang Of firemen began
playing through the broken window
on Mrs. Smiley's spring bonnet, while
another gang poured o three,inch
stream up the middle aisle with such
force as to wash Rev. DIR. Hopkins,
the minister, out of the pulpit and
down among the high hats which were
floating around by the pew doors.
Eventually the matter was explained
and the fire department shut off tho
water and went homo. But the dea-
cons want 10 know how, if Mr.. Smiley
refuses to pay the bill for repairs to
the church, he can ever look a fellow
worshipper in the face again. DAN

tense excitement by the appearance of
Constable f.. Roberts, having in charge
a character known aS Martha DObbins,
,harged with killing her child, a boy
sbout four wears of age. 1t appears the
woman, who is about thirty years of age,
hs, horne u bad character for a number

=, man named Asher promised to marry
her r ne would get rid OF the child,
,ylirh !. iIlrgitimatr. The child has dis
.,up-sr.d. and she and Asher were mar
riod a few DAYS ago. These, together
with the facts that she has told so many
different stories as To- what she did with
,hr child. and that it cannot be found,
seem to indicate strongly that, to get rid
nfit foul means were used. Squire
Gorhv committed her to Jail to be further
dealt with.

aspirations to subserve. They shall be
sunk out Of sight in my efforts to bring
abouta peaceful solution Of our unfortu-
