A POLITICAL correspondent of the Gals
weston Ne,oS, disputes the assertion that
John Wesley Hardin is a bad sleeper, in
the following gitterng sentences
But | have guarded this wild man,
the report of whose bloody crimes has
caused so much shuddering, whose
name was bug bear" to the timid
tourist in Texas. Yes | have guarded
him at midnight, when the moonlight

NY" his little sons name, but in the
main his sleep was calmcr than the
moonlit stream flowing past me to the

The expression of frightening one
to death" is generally supposed to be ms
eXtrayogantas dying ola broken heart.
Perhaps both are within the scope OF
possibility and the realm of fact. In
Cincinnati, the other day, some boys
wanted to frighten oil some other boys
who We're robbing their pigeon roosts.
They blacllened their faces and waited
for the pigeon thieves at night. As the
thieves did not come promptly, the
masked boys thought they would try
the effect of their disguise on little
girl OF twelve years named Katie Graebe,
who happened to be at hand for the exA
pertinent They appeared unto her
with u rush and yell, and Katie fell
senseless and has had no sense since
1t is feared that she has been frightened
into complete idiocy, it, indeed, she
lives over the shock The boys are also
nearly frightened to death at what they
have unwittingly done.

ORIGIN OF the nnse.

Mussulman tradition assigns the
origin of the rose to the night of Ma
hornets journey to heaven. The white
roses sprang from the drops of sweat
which fell from the forehead of the
prophet himself in the toisome ascent /;
the sweat of Borak, the miraculous ami
NAL he rode, gave birth to the yellow
ones; while the celestial drops which
fell from Gabriel were the source of the
red rose.
