There was a "nigger" show in town
last week. 1t consisted of white men,
blacked with burnt cork. They had a
band of music with them, had a canvas
put up. and they showed on Thursday
and Friday nights, and a large audience
patronized them. They probably carried
from our town several hundred dollars
and yet our people complain of hard
times.

Ansedote of George Washington.

A cheerful view of Washington is
given in a story once told by Mrs. Mad
ison to a little girl, who now repeats it
in Lippincott. Zone day in Philadel-
phia,'a said Mistress Dolly Madison,
81 was sitting in my parlor with a very
dear friend, Mrs. r. B.. Lee, when in
walked Payne Todd Their SOM, dressed
in my calico bed-gown. While we were
laughing at the figure he cut, the ser
want threw open the door, and an
nounced General and Mrs. Washington.
What to do with that dreadful boy l
didn't know. He could not face the
President in that garb. Neither could
he leave the room without meeting
them, for the door they were entering
was the only one. l made him crawl
quickly under a low, broad settee on
which l was sitting. l had just time
to arrange the drapery when the WASH
ingtons entered. After the aourtly
greeting, and the usual compliments of
the season, there came from under the
settee a heavy sigh, which evidently
attracted the Generals notice. How
ever, 1 only talked and laughed a little
louder, hoping to divert his attention,
when-oh, mel-there came an cutlery
and a kick hat could not be ignored.
SO l stopped down and dragged Payne
out by the leg. General Washington's
dignity left him for once. Laugh!
Why, he fairly roared. He nearly went
into commissions. The sight of that
boy in that gown, all so unexpected,
coming wrong end first from under my
seat-it was too much.''

A Kentucky Love Story.

A very sweet story of love CONES
from Cincinnati, whence very sweet
things ever come, and probably we
never should have had this enchanting
tale had not the hero and the heroine
been imported for the occasion from
Kentucky, a State which is abandoned
to the raising of heroes and Democratic
majorities, and heroines and superior
whisky. Professor Pie has Taught
school across the river from Cincinnati
for many years, and devoted his even
ings and Saturdays and Sundays, and
much other time, to Huldah, who was
a school marin, and this pleasant thing
went on till the Professor was so and
Huldah was 40. After ten or eleven
years, Huldah's folks, beginning too
think they were going to altogether to
much expense for iire-wood and coal
oil and extra dinners for the Professor,
and feeling that there never would he
any wedding after all, began to tell
naughty stories about the Professor.
This made IIuldah cry and love him
the more, and the strategy failing, lie
was forbidden the house. Then he
climbed in the parlor windows, and the
boys pounded him with fence-boards as
he went through. And then they fired
blank cartridges at him in the still
darkness of the night, and finally loaded
their guns with beans and afterward
with b%ird-shot. The Professor endured
this exciting amusement n few weeks
and then he got mad, stole Huldah out
of the house, ran away with her to Gin
%cinnati, and they were married. Young
Kentucky strategy has succeeded with
the invaluable aid of fence-boards and
shotguns in bringing a prolonged and
weary courtship to happy termination.
The Professor was forgiven, and in
vited back with his bride. The affair
was n little novel and sensational, even
for Kentucky, but in spite of its pro-
nounced success, it would hardly be
desirable, perhaps, for every lady with
a h~esitating lover TO start n lot of I'M
tanned nephews oil the war-path with
s%hot-guns and fence-boards.

Origin OF lynch Law,

In Campbell county, Va, on the
Roanoke river (then called Staunton
river, during the old Revolutionary
War, when there We're some Tories of
obnoxious character still remaining in
the county not reachable by any statu-
tory law, Colonel Charles Lynch, sup
ported by Captain Robert Adams, his
brother-in-law, both farming on adjoin-
ing plantations, and-Calloway, de-
termining to rid the country of such
dangerous enemies, seized on different
occasions three of the worst of them,
tied them TO a tree and logged them so
severely as toprompt an unceremonious
departure from the State, as they were
ordered. This sort of procedure on the
part of Lynch and his friends, proving
so effective in Campbell, was quickly
followed in other countries, where
loyalty TO King George sometimes
provoked summary punishment, and it
was called Lynch law" and has been
to IL day.
The snatch of an old song of the time
is still repeated in the neighborhood:
"Huzza for Captain Bob, Coz Lynch and
Galloway.
Never let II Tory rest I'M lie cries outliberty."
John Lynch, the brother of Charles
Lynch, was the founder of L%ynchburg;
Only n few of theirdescendants are now
living-none in Notwithstanding the
family name, so far as is known, the
last of the males, Charles Henry Lynch,
and his brother, John Pleasant, having
died in Campbell county since the War
of Secession; their sister, Mrs. bearing,
and her daughter, Mrs. Faunt lie Roy,
now occupy the old homestead, where
still remains the stump of the walnut
tree to which the three Tories were tied
and whipped-life was never taken.
Webster, in his unabridged diction-
airy, says of Lynch law" that it was
the practice of furnishing men for
crimes or offenses by private, unau-
thorized persons, without Il legal trial.
The term is said to be derived from a
Virginia farmer named Lynch, who
thus took the law into his own hands"

Leaeh's Pursuit Of the u. r. Train Robbers.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Journal gives the following description
of u long and exciting chase:
During my far western trip last
Summer, Iimade the acquaintance at
Ogalalla, Neb., of a young man named
NJ. F. Leech, from Pennsylvania, who
had seen very much frontier life, and
narrated to me many thrilling incidents
which, for want of time, I did not, as
was my intention, send : the Journal.
He had acted as guide-interpreter for
Indians, etc, and was then keeping a
hotel at ogalalla, to which point the
Texas cowboys drive their cattle every
season, preparatory to their being ship
ped to Chicago and other eastern mar
kets. AT a place to which many des-
peradoes would naturally gravitate,
the man who would keepa public house
must have more than ordinary nerve
and courage. These Leech possessed,
and he was almost every week cou
tering some adventure or another.
To-day 1 have received a letter from
him, dated Mitchell, Ind, November
10, wherein. he says he left home tOgal-
ALA September 10, TO find, if possible,
the gang OF robbers who stopped the
train on the Union Pacific railroad, and
carried off a large amount of booty.
His many experiences among the Indi-
ans specially fitted him for the work of
traversing the wild region of Western
Nebraska in search of these train-rob-
beers. After leaving the scene of the
robbery big Spring., a few miles from
Ogalalla, he struck the trail of the bold
brigands, headed by Collins and Berry,
and followed it over the prairies, across
rivers and through mountain Businesses
for 200 miles. Think of a young fellow
being out all alone on such a mission
as this. l went over n portion of the
region last Summer with a party, and
with their companionship found the
journey lonely enough l can assure you.
Both Berry and Collins had traded at
his store in Ogalalla beforet the robbery,
and Leech knew them well. Day after
day he followed on the trail, until ..one
night he suddenly came upon the gang
sitting around a campfire. He crept
up closely in the bushes until he could
hear the conversation. 1t seemed that
they had learned through some source
that a squad of Government troops had
been detailed to find them is possible,
and having such a large amount of
booty, they were suspicious of one an
other. Following some general con-
versation, Collins, by general consent,
administered a solemn oath to each one
of the robbers, beginning with Berry,
that they would neither betray one
another nor be taken alive. After
hearing this, Leech, who is a light
built, sinewy man, crept back to his
hiding-place, and stealthily followed

following day. Nearly midnight, when
all the band were asleep, he crept into
their camp and found the stolen funds
(se0, 900 in gold in a bag made of
blankets, and with long straps, which
fastened it to the mule conveying the
precious burden through the country.
Leech endeavored to lug away the bag,
but its weight prevented. He then
tried to open it and abstract a portion
of the contents. While he was doing
this one of the robbers awoke and he
was compelled to decamp. The subse-
quent separation Of the band, the shoot
ing of Collins and Berry, and the recov-
cry of the booty have been published
Leech closes his letter to me as follows:
Gam on trail of another robber and ex-
pect to bag him in a few days.
Tourists who visit the Far West
should stop off at Ogalalla a day ortwo
and employ Leech to take them across
the Platte at that point to the herds
of cattle on the south bank. There
were three of us who crossed on horses,

the third gentleman. | swan n pony

which a Sioux warrior had been shot 4

about on the plains. II was one of the
most novel experiences l enjoyed in my
s, 900 miles of travel.
