"THE CHOIR IS BUSTED. I'm
Deckerto IN the pastor of a church
being absent the divine who filled
his place did not know about a
difficulty in the choir. BE gave
out his hymn selected for the open
ing and read it through. There was
no musical response-no sound OF
praise-from choir or congrega-
tion. After a moments embarras-
sing silence, brother arose, and,
walking up to the pulpit, whisper
ed in the preachers ear. The
preacher nodded his head and
smiled. He thought the brother
had said the wrong hymn had
been read, SO he turned the leaves
again and gave out another. 1t
was a long one, and he read it
through, closing with, "Please
omit one stanza."
A dead silence in the congrega-
tion again. The preacher looked
uneasy, was about to give out an
other hymn when another brother
arose and spoke from the gallery !:
gallery:
"You see, our choir is busted.
Some Of 'em thought the bass
sung too low, and some of 'em
thought the spranpy was too high,
and others thought we ought to
have a better alto, and there
wasn't many that liked the tenor,
and so the rest got mad, and they
won't be any singin' to-day"
And 80 the services were ended
without any ''singin'."

THREE GOOD HANDS AT DRAW
PokER.-It was good, ,old-fashion-
edset down at draw poker. There
were three Of them-Ulysses,
'Childs and Murphy.
II tell you what, it's q jolly
game" remarked the poet laureate,
"when you know it's played on
the square,"
II could never sec any pleasure
in cards where there's cheating
going on" added his excellency,
Tipping another chunk of ice into
the glass that stood on the. table
beside him.
"Faith, you can depend upon it"
said Murphy, "that a man who
would cheat his own friends amt
got the right sort of nature in him
at ALL"
Finally there was a 'Fcall,' and
all threw down their hands simul-
taneously. Childs had three aces,
so had Murphy, so had Grant |!
Nine aces and only one deck |!
Then they all got up without say
ing a word, went out, and walked
forth in different directions.

Nor THE FAULT OF THE TOBACCO.
One day last month, when the
trade was dull, a grocery clerk
procured piece Of sole leather
from a shoemaker, painted it black,
and laid it aside for future use.
Within few days an old chap
from back in the country came in
and inquired for a piece of plug
tobacco. The piece of sole leather
was tied up and paid for, and the
purchaser started for home. At
the end Of the sixth day he return
ed, looking downcast and defect
ed, and walking into the store he
inquired of the clerk:
"Member that teroacker T got
here the other day."
eyes,"
"Well, was that a new brand ?"
"No-same old brand"
Regular plug terbacker was
it?"
eyes"
"Well, then, it's me; it's right
here in my jaws" replied the man.
II knowed that I was gittin' pur-
ty old, but I was allus handy on
bitin plug. I never seed a plug
afore this one that I couldn't
tear to pieces at one chaw. I
sot my teeth onto this one, and
bit, and pulled, and twisted
like q dog arter root, and I've
kept bitin and pulling for six days,
and thar she am now, the same
as the day when you sold her to
mel"
"Seem to be a good plug" re-
marked the clerk, as he smelled
of the counterfeit.
"Sbe's all right; it's me that's
failing!" exclaimed the old man.
Pass me out some fine. cut. and
I'll 90 home and deed the farm to
the boys, and git ready for the
gravel"

sional persons. Some idea of this
almost invisible space may be OBJ
tanned from the fact that the
threads of Wamsutta muslin are
are about one hundred to the inch;
divide these threads into ten again
and we have thousandths, three
Of them indicating the depth of
a modern rife groove. Fine as
this appears the ball or projectile,
rather, follows them accurately,
and never leads or fouls the bore.
For heavy work in rough countries
the grooves are made deeper, for
the reason that long ranges are
seldom used, and also that sand and
grit getting in would soon destroy
the shallow rifing used in target
rifles.
THE CARTRIDGE
is a brass she'll, centre fire, and
contains for the A calibre 95 grains
Of powder, much coarser than is
generally supposed. It was a
revelation to the writer, for the
general opinion is that rifle powder,
Of all others, is extremely fine.
The powder for long-range rifles
is like fine gravel used in bird
cages, and it was remarked by the
manufacturers that it was q ques-
ton whetherit was still as coarse
as desirable. The. weight of the
ball is 545 grains patched, and to-
gether with the powders is in length
81 inches. After each discharge
the shell is elected in the act Of re-
loading, and the same can be used
over and over without injury for
long time.
Take it as a whole it is difficult
to see in what respect the stan
dard American rifle could be i'm
proved. The writer has certainly
never had any intention Of COM
peting for membership in the
American team, but since his re-
cent experience has become con-
7inced that it is now a foregone
conclusion. At one hundred
yards a circle no larger than 23
inches diameter was struck cen
tre every time, and all that he
did was to look through the sights
and pull the trigger.
II never saw such gun," said
Mr.. Wrinkle, as his charge. went
skimming along the ground for
the third time close to the tall
gamekeeper's logs. "It a0iz do it.
1t goes off of ITSELF" and so it may
be said Of the American rife, that
if the marksman only holds it
somewhere in the direction Of the
spot be wishes the ball to 60, it
will do it; it will "shoot CENTRE"
as the plainsman say, every time.
