He Missed Something.

Last evening the steamer Wide
Hest ran up to the o. S. N. Co.'S
dock, where she discharged her pas
sengers, after which she returned to
Ainsworth dock to discharge her
freight. At the landing keen-eyed
little man cried:
"I say cap'n, these here arn't all.
/ have left something aboard, that's
q fact"
"Them's all the plumber you
brought Oh board, anyhow" an
swered the captain.
Wal, l see now; l grant it's all
o. X. accordin' to list; two boxes,
three chests, two band boxes and
portmanty; two hams, enc part cut 4,
three ropes of inyens and tea ket-
Ito. But see cap'n, I'm dubersome;
| feel there's somethin' short, though
I've counted them nine times over,
and never took my eyes off um while
on board; there's somethin' not
right, somehow.
Wal, stranger, time up; thcm's
all know on; SO just fetch your
wife and five children out of the
cabin, cos I'm off. y
Them's UNI! Darn it, them $
UNI! / knowed I'd forgot some
thing! Portland Bee.
The above story is good one
and worthy of publication, but it
derives its chief interest from being
veritablc rri;.' Of an age which
has long siumbered in oblivion
That it was carved in imperishablc
stone previous to tho destruction of
Ninevah, shows likewise that it was
an incident whose narration had ex-
cited the facial nerves of those grim
remnants of departed humanity.
We are glad that the busy little BE,
has gathered this sweet extract and
stored it in cell for the use of pos
terity. May its hive ever be found
stored with such treasures.

Rr,DFR. did YOUR Water-pipe freeze.

READER, did your water-pipe freeze.
If not, you may skip this paragraph,
as you cannot appreciate the SORROWS
of one who has been heating water
and applying it in homeopathic
doses to the stubborn combination
of wood and iron, called n hydrant,
which refuses to thaw even under
the warmest treatment and sur
rounded by the most benign inilu-
ence. We tried it Monday, and a
few drops of the crystal fluid issued
from the faucet. We We're jubil-
liant. What care we for the riSors
of Winter, long as the bark-pile
holds out to burn and the water
which is TO the Blue Ribbon Bri-
gade chief rcliance-docs not cease
TO flow? But alas! The few drops,
like widows tears, soon were gone,
and ell efforts since have not been
rewarded with even this sign of
promise. Yesterday We became des-
perate, and with a strength born of
despair, tore up the the hydrant,
and carried it into the house. And
there it has stood, ever since, behind
q rcd-hot stove, and still the rigid
column of ice within deties the cf-
forts of man, fire and the devil.
What the result will be, We know not.
SO far, the icc-iiend has had the best
of the battle, and it is indeed difficult
to preserve the imperturbable good
humor, for which we are SO noted
under such frigid circumstances.
