Didn't Know He Was Loaded.

"You will please observe" said old
Mr.. Lambwell, as be led us through hif
school the other day, "that the boyf
are required to display the utmost atten'
ton to quietness and discipline, and In
short time become even divested o1
that most annoying disposition to tease
each other in short, they soon settle
down into the gravity of mature years,
under the wholesome system I have In
troduced." ......r -
We at this moment arrived in front ol
several boys who were standing around
a bucket of water, and one had just
charged his mouth with the contents oi

stopping to recover his pen from the

"Jim Gun, SIR"
"Jim Gun, you rascal, what did you
do that for ?"
Jim, appalled, at the mischief he had
done, muttered out that it was not his
fault, but that Tom Owens had snapt
him.
This changed the direction of old
Lambwell's wrath, and shaking his
cane portentously over Owens head, he
asked:
"Did you snap Gun?"

Character.

The great hope of society is individual
character, because it not alone affects
the individual himself, but also the
society in which he lives. Emerson says
that the characters of men make the
conscience of society in which they live.
BENJAMIN Franklin attributed all his
success among men to the character he
established for himself and not to any
brilliancy of intellect. Character lis
capital in itself. It is victory organ
lied, and does not depend upon birth,
fortune or influence. There is no capital
goes 30 far or pays 80 we'll, and bank.
ruptcy in character is seldom repaired
in life time. To establish character,
feelings have to be disciplined, habits
moulded and controlled in obedience to
reason and moral conscience, and when
properly fashioned make the surest pass.
port through life. We find in everyday
life that when q person of doubtful
character calculates piece of news it is
received with suspicion, whereas when
it is attributed to man of character
people listen with eager interest and
conviction. The best time to test q man
of character is when the tide is against
him. George Washington was true

who showed in times of danger and diff.
Guilty force of will, q tenacity of pur.

It is loss of character that has filled

precious heritage to their offspring

Badly FRIGHTENED Celestials.

A boy, while on his way to the Rich
mond charcoal pile above the furnac es,
yesterday, espied an old wagon wheel on
the hillside. With true boyish impulse,
he stood it on its rim and started it down
the hill. With the usual perversity and
cussedness of all inanimate things, it
took straight course for Chinaman's
shanty, and, gathering free and veloci.
ity by the momentum Of its downhill
revolution, it dashed with great force
against the Celestial residence, and tore
it from its moorings, carrying wreck
md destruction to the interior. A doz-
en- terrified and scared Celestials tumbled
ont of the back window and sought safe
on the fiat below. The boy had taken
to his heels and disappeared over the
crest of the hill, and there was no visible
cause in sight to account for the appar-
ent earthauake. After long consulta-
tion, the bravest barbarian cautiously
crept back, peered around the corner Of
the shanty. and finally ventured to the
doorway. His companions joined him,
and the gesticulating, outpouring OF
choice speech, and the testing of the ca
pacity of their native language in the
way Of profanity, was wonderful. The
boy forgot to return that way to explain
the cause of the accident.-Eureka

Shocking Scene in q Church.

A resent dispatch from Richmond,
Ind, is to the following effect: City
Marshall L. Schafer, has just returned
from Knightstown, reports that himself,
Park Page, from Richmond, and Officers
Kehoe, from Indianapolis and Haynes,
of Knightstown, took Harry Foxwell,
the Knightstown saloon keeper, arrested
on suspicion Of being the murderer OF
John W. White, to Carthage to-day, and
arrived at the church just as the funeral
services over the murdered man were
completed. They took the prisoner into
the church to look at the corpse. He
evinced such agitation that the murdered
mans sister screamed in alright. In.
stantly the crowd in the church made q
rush upon the prisoner, whom they
tried to force from the officer. Revolvers
we're drawn, the women screamed, the
preacher leaped upon a chair and ex:
horted the crowd to keep the peace, and
only owing to his influence were the
officers able to remove Foxwell from the
church.
Upon the street the mob of sew.
eral hundred made another rush
upon the officers, demanding the pris.
oner, and crying, "Shoot the murder
er," "Hang him." "Stone him te
DEATH" and such like expressions. The
officers forced their way through the
crowd with their revolvers, and took the
prisoner to a Justices Office, privately
secured hack, drove rapidly from towr
and took the prisoner to Rushvile
across the country nearly twenty miles
Arriving there, they were met by Large
crowd, but had no difficulty in locking
up the prisoner in jail. Foxwell is

tation. It is the general belief that HI
is guilty, and he would have been lynch
