MANY economists in the country see
no use for militia, especially in eastern
states where there are no Indians and
no road agents and desperadoes of var
ious sorts. But the fact is that the
militia are frequently necessary and
generally effective. Who would have
supposed six months ago that there was
any earthly use for militia in Maine?

Fun in Utah.

Mohan and GilGland were well known
in Utah as desperados. They rode into
Eagle Rock in quest of amusement.
They began by compelling temperance
men to drink with them, the alternative
being instant death. Their next diver
sion was repeatedly to cross bridge and
dare the gate-tender, noted athlete, to
come out of his house and collect toll.
Then they shot oil the dogs and hens in
the place. By this time the inhabitants
were terrified, and nobody but the two
marauders was out of doors. Their
crowning exploit was to fire at woman
who was trying to call her pet dog into
the house. Keller and Chamberlain
were cattle-herders, and they got weary
of being imprisoned in a store, where
they had gone to make some purchases.
They carefully loaded rifle apiece, and
went out to rid the town of the nuisance.

A Rov'e Adventure.

Two Louisville lads, having crammed
their little noodles with trash Of the
"Dare-Devil Dick" and "NIidnight Ma
rauders'' order, decided to run away from
home. They had money enough to buy
one ticket. They "fipped up nickel,
and Willie Tucker won. The other,
Alfred Hit, decided to go in trunk.
His companion, having locked and strap
ped the trunk, had it delivered at the
depot and checked for Selma, Ala. He
bought ticket for himself and started
by the same train. The boy in the
trunk was furnished with bottle of
water and supply of bread to subsist
on during the trip, and few holes had
been cut in the trunk for the admission
of air. The whistle blew ond the train
started off with Tucker occupying a seat
in the coach, while the trunk containing
young Hit was thrown topsy turvy in
the baggage Car together with lot of
other baggage. In starting out under
such circumstances the boys thought
for while that their dreams would be
realized. Young Hit, however, began
thinking of the dangers he was under
going and soon forgot his dreams in his
desire to be out of the box. The air
began to stife him and the warm blood
rushed to his head. At point on the
road some additional trunks were re-
ceived and piled up all around young
Hits cage, completely shutting off his
supply of air. This was too much for
h1m and he cried out with all his might,
frightening the baggage master, who
thought that the train bad been boarded
by robbers, The lid was broken off and
young Hit was revealed to the sight OF
the astonished baggage master. The
romance had been completely taken out
of the boy and he wanted to go home.
He told the whole stoxy. Tucker was
found and the precious pair were seht
back to Louisville.
