He II Going to Resign.

In Forsyth, one day last week, . gentle.
man standing in the street noticed two
mule wagon drive mp to ono of the stores.
There wse nothing peculiar in this, but what
particularly struck his attention was the
fact that the drivers colored man-had
IN exceedingly lengthy pair of reins, and
Wa seated in the hindmost part Of the
wagon. When the team stopped the negro
cautiously fAstened tho lines to Q standard,
got out ever tho hind wheel, and made .
circle Of forty or fifty feet to get to the
heads of the mules. This 90 excited tho
gentleman's curiosity that he walked up
and asked:
"Look here, uncle, you are not crazy, are
youY"
docs look like crazy niger. Mars
Tom7"
"Well, what in the name of common
sense are You cutting up these antics for
walking almost twice around the wagon to
get to your mules, and sitting on the gate
to drivep"
The negro looked at the gentleman mo-
ment and then burst into an uncomfortable
at Of laughter.

It 10 true that the accounts that come down

cured by an ode, deafness by q trumpet,
and the pestilence Ia chased away by the
Tyre. Music, says Pope, the fercest grief
can charm. Homer tells us the Grecian
army employed music to stay the
raging of the plsgue and We find David
making use Of his harp to remove the

The Detroft Fsve Ress tells . story about
. certain Detroit lawyer Who was invited to
deliver Fourth Of July oration in On inte-
rior town. Having never delivered one,
and being anxious to distinguish himsolf,
he commenced week ago to 6t himself for
the task. He isn't man to stand up and
read . speech, and no isn's the man who
would break down delivering one. He
planned to spend IN hour in . grove near
Harper Hospital each morning and he
would have hit tho nail on the head if folks
had let him alone. Everything passed off
al right the first morning. He made half .
dozen good hits ut tyranny, got in left.

praised liberty, patted Bunker Hill on the
back, extolled Washington, and sprinkled
cad toars on the memory of the rusting Pill

brought the boys. They had ascertained his
object, and were there ahead of him. When
he mounted . log and asked an imaginary
audience to go back with him to the birth Of
freedom, . boy behind brush heap grOsn.
on. The lawyer went on. With one hand
on tho sacred old bell in Independence Hall,
and the other ON the tomb of Washington, he
said:
"Hark! 'Tis tho thunder of cannon at
Yorktown. IT'S the tread Of your patriot
grandsires marching toward the sunshine of
freedom" "'Tain't neither, its . freight
train bellering for the Wood v ard avenue

The lawyer couldn't get around those boys,
and he had to quit. He went an hour later
next morning. and avoided them. but while
he was getting off beautiful thing
on the happy household of States
an old woman came bawling through
the fence aud wanted to know

ST.. LOUIS, July 8-The eastward bound
train on the Missouri Pacific railroad left
,Otterville, Missouri, . few moments after
ten O'Clock last night, and when two and
one-half miles east of that place, in Q deep
cut, the engineer saw signal light to stop.
Thinking there was some obstruction on
the track he applied air brakes, and after
ties and lumber across the track. He
comprehended the situation, but could
not until the engine had climbed
partly upon the pile that the train
came to stand, and at the same instant q
dozen or fifteen men appeared with terrific
yells, and, discharging pistols, dashed at
tho train. Two jumped on the engine, and,
with navy revOlvers,. covered the engineer
offered resistance. They were then marched
into the baggage car and placed under
guard. At the same time three other rob
ben climbed into the express car by side
door, which Wa open.
Bushnell, the express messenger, how.
ever, had been toaquick for them, and had
dashed through the train to the rear sleeper.
and giving his safe keys to . brakesman,
made him put them in his shoes. Nh.
~~>.e~>9s AssDAA
was In the express car when the robbers
entered, and they demanded tho keys of
the safes. He told them he was not tho
messenger and had NO keys. Two robbers
then put Conkling in front of them, and
with revolvers ct his head marched him
through the train, demanding no should
point out tho messenger when thew
came to him. In this way they passed
through the entire train to the terror of
Women and children, and to tho great fear
of the mail passengers many of whom had
themselves in various ways. Arriving ct
the rear sleeper Conkling pointed out Bush.
nell, and the robbers demanded tho safe
keys of him. Under the circumstances
there was nothing to do but yield, and
Bushnell took the keys from the breakman
and handed them to the robbers.
One of the latter then stood guard over
Bushnell while tho others marched Conk-
ling back to the express car, whore they
opened the Adams Express safe and put
tho entire contents into wheat sack. Not
being able to open the other safe with the
Keys they got from Bushnell, one of them
broke in q panel Of the safe. Its contents
ives aleo put into the sack.
The robbers then took the Missouri, Kan
cas- and Texas railroad letter box and broke
it open; but finding nothing they wanted
they scattered the letters over the floor Of
the car.
They also went to the Adams express
freight car, but z6eund nothing there that
,eemed worthy of their notice.
While these acts were being performed
