looks like an QAsophistieated and near

Three men entered our sanctum Monday,
and not content with saying ''good morn
ing" insisted on shaking hands with every
one, from the main guy to the assistant
| devil. They were dusty and travel stained.
There was look upon their faces, not such
as ''hmners give to loved disciples" but a
mixture OF desperation and resignation.
The elder OF the three took seat, crossed
MS legs, drew murderous-looking revolv-
er, placed it on his lap, and said:
II reckon you're the editor"

eyes"
swell, mister, me and my friends have
ecme to town to see you. We never saw a
We editor before, and last night we lain in
chuck enough to last US for day and start
ed to town to see you. You see, mister,
me and my friends read the papers We can
get hold of, and we have had several argu-
ments as to whether everything is true
what's printed in the papers. Now look
here, mister, want you to tell me the Gods
truth. Do editors ever lie?"
He fondled his pistol when we caught his
eye, which may have influenced our answer,
but we don't think it did. Anyhow, we
put on q bold look and answered him:
" No sir; editors never lie. They con-
slider it beneath them to descend to such
petty meanness, for you know it is base for
ordinary men to lie, let alone such moral
reformers as editors, lawyers, preachers and
stage-drivers."
Our rapid flow Of language stunned him
for a while, but recovering, he cooked his
revolver and proceeded;
"Mister, don't spin any more long story.
Do editors ever lieY'
'sNot in"
GWhst?"
81 was going to say"
''Cut her short"
er that revolver. / was going to say that
owing to the strain upon an editors intel
lect, he might at times unwittingly prevar-
icate."
''Look here, l want you to answer my
questions and stop chinning."
He raised his deadly, uncivilized pistol.
His two friends who had been silent. grin
ming partners, looked as silent as the grave.
A pause Of about two seconds followed, it
may not have been quite two, when we re-
piled very family:
"Yes, some of them lie.
The fend was not satisfied with that an
swer, which was certainly broad enough for
anyone but wretch who does not know
how to respect the keen sensibilities Of an
editor. He placed the muzzle of his bar
barrie baby cannon under our left ear and
whispered:
''SomeY'
"All of them" we yelled.
A change came over the Villains features,
smile meeting at the back of the neck,
engnlfed his whole face once in a while,
and rising to his feet he said:
"Psrd, shake; hope you wont bear any
ill-will agin me. I've been thinking about
going into the newspaper business myself
me and my friends here. I'm some on the
lie myself knowed if come to you and
talked the matter over I could get satisfae-
ton. Pm satisfied and 1 hope you are.
I'll write to you letter from our neighbor
hood. tn be all the truth. Goodbye.
After he and his friends left the office
we thought the matter over, and have come
to the conclusion that & forced confession
don't amount to much.

Seven Hours az the BunashOle.

Joseph Hammersehmidt, an eccentric
wealthy German Of Montrose Ave-, Brook,
lyn. gets his wine from the fathaFland in
casks; and when q eAsk arrives looks him
self up in his house all alone to spend the
day in bottling the wines. He allows his
favorite dog to stay with him, but no other
creature is permitted near. Last week,
when his cask arrived from Germany, he
ordered his housekeeper to spread for him,
in the cellar, a lunch, comprising Bologna
sausage, sandwiches and pretRels, to put
his dog in the cellar, and then to leave the
house Tor the day. He went out ON an er-
rand, and returning sometime afterward
found that his dog had eaten all the saus-
age and was nOsing about the other food.
He first threw hatehet at the dog. and
then, catching him, tied him to the spigot-
Of the cask with rope, and raised club
to kill him. The dog made a desperate
bound, and jerking the spigot out Of its
place, ran away. The wine spurted out,
and Hammerschmidt, crying "Mein Gott :
Mein Gottr hastily elapped his hand over
the bung-hole to keep it back. The dog
and the spigot were in the far corner
of the cellar. the cask could not be
lifted on its end. and there was nothing left
for Hammerschmidt 10 do but to call for
aid or lose his wine. No one was in the
house 10 relieve him, and the cellar walls
deadened the sound Of his voice to the,
neighbOrs. For seven hours he held his
hand against the bung-hole, screaming for
help as long as he could find strength. At
length, late in the afternoon, his cries we're

These heroes are dead. They died for
liberty-they died for us. They are st rest.
They sleep in the land they made free. m
der the flag they rendered stainless, under
the Solem pines, the sad hemlocks, the tear
tui willows, and the embracing vines. They
sleep beneath the shadows Of the clouds
careless alike of the sunshine or Of the
s5oun, each in the windowless palace Of rest
Earth may run red with other wars-they
are at peace. In the midst Of battle, in the
roar of conflict, they found the serenity Of
death. "a voice-''GlOTy.'9 l have one

a sailor, or his tent to a soldier on active

most of the little is at home.
