Mae of the Cumberland TIMES,
recently took a trip to the coal
mines above Cumberland and stole
a ride back on the Fast Freight,
run by a Fiat Conductor" This
is the way he tells it:
"1he shades of evening were
fallil (, and of course the train ex-
pect,'d did not come, but a telegram
did, informing those interested
that the Accommodation would be
along about twelve that night if
nothing else in the shape of acci
dent interviewed, a freight train
was slowly moving out toward
Cumberland. A rush "a jump, and
our party had surrounded, cap
tured, and held full possession of
the conductors caboose That gen.
tleman was also not at home, and
we were glad of it. When he did
come we had a story cOntrived that
would have moved the heart Of
the Cardiff Giant. We liked the
looks of that conductor. He was
none of your lean and hungry
kind, full of suspicion and all I'M
charitableness. Not he. lie was
fat, good looking, genial, and we
captured him. We believe our
story so moved that conductors
bump of compassion that he would
have divided his evenings lunch
with US if re had not known we
were printers, and unused to the
good thugs Of life. In taking that
conductor captive and using his
eaboOse as a car Of state, we need
not tell Of the straegy we used.
We played it on him IN q way
he'll despise il ever he finds II
out. But we reached Gumber-
Iar q the same evening whole and
sound generally, a little fatigued
and hungry, but perfectly satisfi-
ed as to the vanity OF exploring
coal mines.
The "fat conductor" alluded to
is our clever friend NJ. w. Ne. of
this place. He says he would
have divided his lunch but not
having anything to drink except
water, he knew from theINDEPEN
DENT, that "Mac" would not eat
without something stronger than
coffe to wash it down with.

THE MODEL SHEEP MAN.

The best sheep man we ever heard Of
was soldier, who saw somewhere how
valuable sheep are for renovating worn
out land, and after the cruel war was over
he went home to his poor farm, and bought
thirteen ewes, all that, fortunately. he was
able to buy. He put them in a small field
Of briers and weeds, which they soon de-
stroyed, then he fed them on bran and
meal. In the winter he sheltered them
well, feeding oats and swamp hay, and in
the spring he had thirteen fine lambs.
Saving the manure. he planted the old
brier patch with corn, and harvested a
fine crop. All his spare time was devot-
ed to caring for the sheep. The next
spring he had more lambs; he was able
TO plant more corn then came more lambs,
when he sowed clover and grew turnips
and now, to-day, as the result of such small
beginnings, be has several hundred fine
young sheep free from disease. bringing
him 81, 900 year, while his farm has be-
come extremely fertile, and he is a rich
man. We know that thousands Of poor
young men have free course open to
them to become wealthy by beginning in
the same way. But the trouble is. the
way is too humble and slow they want to
get along faster; they have no patience,
no faith, no pluck. Truly, it does seem
small busint 3; to watch dozen sheep, as
il it were beneath the attention of bright
American youth but il said youth will look
the subject over he will see it worthy Of
all his powers. A young man can well
afford to sit down with q dozen sheep on
the plains, live in dug out, and feed on
antelope meat. rather than undertake to
become independent in city on 4 clerk
ship of 81 900 year.
