The Signers.

The oldest of the fifty-six signers of
the Declaration of Independence, at the
time that historic instrument was adopt
ed and signed, on the 4th Of July, 1776,
was Benjamin Franklin, of Pennsylva-
mia, who was in his list year. The
youngest was Edward Rutledge, of
South Carolina, who was in his 9th
year. Three of the signers we're over 80
years of age when they died, ten were
over 80, and eleven over 70 years. The
last survivor of the signers was Charles
Carroll, of Carrollton, Md, who died on
the 14th of November, 1882, in his Goth
year. John Adams and Thomas Jeffer-
son died on the same day, July 4, 1926,
the former in his 91st year, and the lat
ter in his Saith year, and when they were
gone, Charles Carroll was the only re-
manning one of the band of patriots who
signed the Declaration.

the altar, "gittin' married."

Is the Red Man a Humorist ?

They had dispute in at Barham's one
day, over the assertion that the North
American Indian has no humor. Moody
said he'd investigate the subject while
ola his approaching trip to Colorado, and
would send home an account OF the re-
suit. On his way out there the party
stopped one night at Sioux camp, and
Moody thought he would undertake his
experiment. He led one of the chiefs
aside, and said to him confdentially
Why is lame dog like an inclined
plane9" The chief retained passive
countenance, and shook his head, and
then Moody said: because it's slo-
pup" and then Moody laughed vocifer-
ously, but the noble savage scowled and
went back to his supper of baked dog.
Moody tried that conundrum on sixty
four braves, seventy squaws and pa
poose, without inducing smile, and he
was about to abandon his theory, when
he happened to remember that the
Sioux have not yet learned the English
language.
He felt then that perhaps something
in the nature OF a practical joke would
be more likely to develop the aboriginal
sense of fun; and he got two candle
boxes out of the wagons and placed them
on the ground about two feet apart.
Then he spread blanket over them and
put bucket of water between them.
Then he sat on one box and the driver
of the mule team on the other, and he
invited Kicking Horse, the head chief,
to take seat In the middle III the soft
place. Just as the Indian sat down,
Moody and the other man got up, and
Kicking Horse went sousing into the
bucket Moody was surprised to. OBJ
serve that the ch1eftain did not laugh.
On the contrary, Kicking Horse arose
with great dignity, and approached Nh.
Moody. That gentleman thought may
be he was coming to ask how the thing
was done, so that he could play it upon
some of his friends. But Moody was
mistaken. The chief tangled Mr..
Moody's hair among his fingers, whipped
out a knife couple of feet long, and
snatched off Mr.. Moody's scalp. Then
