Rogers to lend him o shotgun so
that he could kill the chicken.
Rogers agreed, and he climbed back
over the fence with the gun in his
hand. Phipps took the gun and
fired. He missed the chicken and
blew the entire cupola off the
smoke-house. Then Rogers said
there were some men who knew no
more about firing a gun than a
tom-cat knows about idolatry. So
Rogers took the weapon, aimed
carefully, and pulled the trigger.
About one shot hit the hen, and
the remainder struck a COW in an
adjoining lot, exciting her SO that
she hooked a boy and threw him
over a fiye-rail fence. The hen flew
up on top of Phipps' house and
cackled as if she had laid 200 eggs
a minute for the last quarter of an
hour. Phipps proposed to fire at
the hen again, but Rogers sarcastic
cally intimated that if he did he
would probably hit Mrs. Phipps,
who was churning milk in the cell
lar. Then Phipps told Rogers to
shoot, and Rogers did SO, with the
result that he missed the chicken
and broke eight panes Of glass in
Phipps' garret window. Then
Rogers said Phipps must have
spoiled the gun by fooling with it,
and he climbed the fence again and
went home. Just as he reached the
house Phipps threw a stone at the
hen, soaring her so that she flew
down, knocked two pitchers and a
teacup off the dresser, and fright
ened the hired girl into Mysteries.
Rogers rushed in, grabbed the
chicken, wrung its neck, and went
out to the fence. AS be tossed the
carcass over to Phlpps, he said:
"There's that indecent, infamous
chicken of yours; you take it and
keep it. And | give you notice
that if you come fooling around
here with any more such diabolical
birds, hens or roosters, I'll blow
your head off if Pm hung for
Then he went into the house, and
Rogers and PhippS don't speak
when they see each other at meet
ing.

was in comfortable circumstances
and wished the boy to pack his
clothes, saying nothing to his
mother, and go with him. The boy
at first doubted his fathers identity,
but alter further conversation and
brushing up his recollection of pic
lures Of his father that he had seen
he acknowledged his parent. Yet
the Impressions he had formed of
his character were unfavorable, and
ne had no intention of accepting
the proposition to leave. He prom
ised to consider the matter and to
say nothing at home regarding his
fathers presence in town, but i'm
mediately upon reaching home told
his mother the whole story.
AS may be inferred, it created
CONSERVATION in the family. and
husband No. 2 was especially dis
mayed, for it was clear to him that
his relations with his wife were
illegal, although unintentionally so,
Of course. AS far as can be ascer.
tained the parties are endeavoring
to arrange for the first husband tc
return West, and consider himself,
as he ought to be for the sake Of
family peace, dead. But two or
three intimate friends are conver-
SAINT with all the facts, and less than
half dozen know the story in a
general way. Hoping that an ar
rangement may be reached, earnest
efforts are being made to keep the
names from the public, and in view
of the fact that only harm would
result to a now happy family, it is
to be hoped that these efforts may
be successful. In fact, the first
husband has long been the same as
dead, as far as the wife is con-
cerned, and for returning at this
time he deserves no better fate
than to be "bounced" out of town.
