At picnic near Griffin, Tenn, Bob Hobbs,
a policeman, approached a lemonade stand,
over which Phil. Morris was presiding for the
the ladies. young farmer and a desperate
sort of a man named Tom Sullivan stood near.
Hobbs had arrested Sullivan one time for dis
orderly conduct while in town, and upon seeing
him approach, began cursing him. Sullivan s
sisters requested Hobbs not to hurt their
brother, as he had been drinking. After fur
ther talk Sullivan finally exclaimed he would go
home and get shotgun and shoot Hobbs and
Morris when they went home. As the above
named gentlemen approached the residence of
Mr.. freeman in buggy, they saw Sullivan
leave a crowd of ladies and gentlemen with a
shotgun in his hand, and approach them.
When within twenty feet he raised the gun to
fire. Hobbs threw up both feet and received
the full charge in his hips and groins. Sullivan
then turned and walked leisurely away. Nor
risp pulled out revolver, and, pointing at Sulli-
van, emptied five chambers. He then drew
another weapon and emptied three chambers of
that all without effect. Hobbs wounds are
fatal.

There are great many people, in their
religion, that remind meof "Uncle Phil, I"
pious old darky of the old times in
Texas,
Well, Phil was fervent Christian,
with great gift of prayer. He attend
ed all the Saturday night prayer-meet-
ings on the neighboring plantations, and
could pray louder and longer than any
of the brethren. But Phil had one weak
ness, he dearly loved money, and, differ
ent from the negro generally, loved to
hoard it. s s4
Near by us lived man who, not troub-
led by any scruples, would pay Phil a
dollar to work in his fields on Sunday.
One Sunday night Phil came home after
dark. I Iaccosted him with: s13.s T. i.
'Where have you been, Phi1?" s-s b.
tsOh, Jest knocking about, massa."
'eYou have been working for Miller"
'Well, you see, massa, the old fellow
is in weeds, and he jest showed me sill
yer dollar and Jest couldn't stand it.
'.Ain't you afraid the devil will get
you for breaking the Sabbath"
Phil scratched his head minute and
said: aa7 s @s.ts '-.-'
81 guess the Lord'n 'scuse me, massa. !"
'tNo. He says, remember the Sab
bath day and keep it holy" ....z,
Phil went off looking pretty sober,
and it was not long before I heard his
voice in fervent prayer back of the barn,
SO I thought I would slip down near
enough to hear.
"Oh, LordF I heard him say, 'I have
this day ripped and feared, cussed and
sweared at them confounded oxen of Mil
ler's and jest broke the Sabbath day.
Oh, Lord, please forgive me; please for
give me, for You knows Use nothing but
miserable heather anyhow. If You'll
Jest forgive me this time I'll never do it
again as long as I live, 'cepten he gives
me $3.50 day. syi
At this point I was obliged to beat a
hasty retreat, but am thinking that
poor Phil isn't the only $3.50 Christian
in this world.

Curious Antipathies.


Being, through an afaiction, very much
confined to my house, take delight in
being surrounded by domestic pets, and
have been much amused by what 1
thought the whims and affections of
my acquaintances. Some start and are
Ill at ease while my mastif (who is as
gentle as lamb) lies under my table !;
some tell me they have an aversion to
my parrot-its sometimes startling ap-
ropos answers to words that curiously
fit in the conversation terrify them,
and they think it g uncanny;" others
and these are many really cannot sit
IN the room unless my cat (who is a
great pet) is removed. This all seemed
SO mysterious to me that I searched an
old work on the Affections and I'm
aginations of the Mind" for solu-
ton, and was rewarded by the follow
ing extract, which send, thinking it
may be interesting to your readers.
Mr.. Chevraux, celebrated French
writer. observes =" How exceeding
whimsical some .antpathies appear
have known people to faint on smell
ing the delicious fragrance of rose,
and yet experience pleasure in smell
ing jonquil or a hyacinth. A GER
tain Governor of one of the frontier
towns could not bear the sight of fish
spawn, and lady whom I knew went
into convulsions on seeing q crawfish.
Erasmus, who was q native of Rotter-
dam, had SO great an aversion to fish
that he could not even smell it without
being IN a fever. If we may credit
Ambrose Pare, man of some celeb
rity, he says he could never sit
at table where eels were served up
without fainting. Joseph Scaliger never
drank milk, Garden could not bear eggs,
Julius Caesar Scaliger had an antipathy
to crosses; Uladistas Jagelon, a Polish
King, hated apples; and when Du Ches-
ne, secretary to Francis l., smelt them,
they occasioned his nose to bleed. Hen
ry Ill. could not remain in room where
there was cat the same aversion was
observed in Marshal Shomberg, Gov
ernor Of sLanguedoc.. The Emperor Fer
dinand introduced a gentleman to the
Cardinal de Lorraine at Inspruck, whose
fear of cats was so powerful that when
he heard them NEW at distance blood
spurted from his nose. M. de Laucre
says that he knew gentleman whose
fear of the hedgehog was excessive, and
who believed that that animal had act
ually been preYing on his entrails for
more than two years. He also relates
another story, equally singular, of a gen.
lepan whose bravery none disputed, but
who was so nervous when mouse ap-
peaTed that he could not take out his
sword to destroy it. Mr.. Vaughneim,
the Kings huntsman in Hanover, tainted
when he saw a roasted pig. The philos-
opher Chrysippas hated bows SO much
that when he was saluted he fell down.
There are persons who cannot tolerate
the sight Of spiders, and there are those
who eat them for amusement. A friend
of mine, a gentleman brave as the best,
tainted when vaccinated few months
ago. He could not account for it, he
said, as of course there was no pain,
neither did he feel any repugnance."

life and property almost beyond estimate was
destroyed by its forces. In Ohio and Indiana
particularly were the results disastrous. The
storm passed over the latter State in south
easterly direction, unroofng property-leveling
much of it to the ground-and almost totally
destroying the growing crops. In Ohio the
storm spent most of its force in the Miami
Valley, and in the vicinity of Cincinnati the
destruction to property is without parallel. Al
most every building in its track was either
leveled to the ground or unroofed. Streams
overfowed and swept fences, buildings, and
crops down their currents. Whole forests were
laid to the ground, the telegraph disabled, and
railroad travel fmpeded by land slides and wash
outs. Throughout the State of Indiana num-
Der of persons were killed and perhaps not less
than one hundred, all told, were more or less
injured by falling houses and flying debris.

A London correspondent says: "If the COM
mittee in the case of Bradlaugh report in favor
of permitting him to affirm at his peril,
Woolf 0iberaD will move in the House of
Commons that such course exceeds the powers
Of the committee, and sets aside the report of
the former committee, and he will oppose
Bradlaughs admission. A bitter contest is
anticipated. Bradlaugh is said to have de-
clared that if the House refuses to. permit him
to affirm, he will go to the clerks desk and
swear and take his seat anyhow, and only be
elected by physical force.

Texas.

Though we talk of Texas being an
empire" about the vast territory en-
bracing 374 1906 square miles about; its
17,000,00 of acres, we do not in all this
get so clear and definite an idea of its
extent as we shall if we take thin
piece of paper, with a map Of the United
States before us, lay the paper over the
State of Texas, mark out its bounda-
ries, trim the paper down to the bound
ary lines, and then put one end, say on
Chicago, and swing the other end of the
paper out to the vicinity of Boston or,
with one end of the paper on Chicago,
swing the other down to New Orleans |;
or still further, holding one end on at
Chicago, swing the other out to Denver,
noting carefully how much territory,
how many States it covers completely at
each move, and we begin to get by this
process some correct idea Of how much
land there is in 1900, 600 of acres -

1t is ascertained that the discipline on the
steamer Narragansett was of the worst kind
or that there was no discipline at all. A deck
hand, named Timothy Murphy, has stated to an
officer Of the Stonington Line Company that
the crew were never drilled either in the use of
the fire apparatus or in the use of the life
boats. 1t is therefore. not difficult to under
stand why the conduct of the officers and crew
was 30 inharmonious and altogether outrageous
when the terrible crisis came. An official in
quiry into the disaster will be made by the New
London Board of Steamboat Inspectors.

AHerrshIe Accident.

terrible accident occurred near Republic,
Mo-, the past week. Owing to the scarcity of
harvest hands the wife of John L. Summer was
driving the reaper in the wheat field, when by
some means she was thrown from her seat to
the ground in front of the sickle, which man
gled her most horribly. Her right arm was cut
of below the elbow, her left arm nearly sew
cred above the elbow, and the left side of her
breast horribly cut. Her injuries were so seri-
ous that, despite the attendance of surgeon,
death ensued on the following night. Mr.. John
L. Summer was at work in another part of the
field, and unaware Of the nature of the acci-
dent, after considerable difficulty, captured
the team. He did not suspect the disastrous
consequences of the runaway until he saw the
blood on the sickle Mrs. Sumner leaves five
children, one small infant.
