A Witty Parson.

Scotch clergyman named Watty Morrison
was man of most irrepressible humor. On
one occasion young officer scoffed at the idea
that it required SO much time and study to
write a sermon as ministers pretend, and
offered to bet that he would preach an hour
on any passage in the Old Testament without
the slightest preparation. Mr.. Morrison took
the bet and he gave for text And the ass
opened his mouth and spake." The parson
won the wager, the officer being rather dis
inclined to employ his eloquence upon that
text.
On another occasion Mr.. Morrison entreated
an officer to pardon poor soldier for some
offense he had committed. The officer agreed
to do so if he would in turn grant him the
first favor he should ask.
Mr.. Morrison agreed to do this. In day
or two the officer demanded that the cere-
mony of baptism should be performed on a
puppy. The clergyman agreed to it; and a
party of many gentlemen assembled to witness
this novel baptism.
Mr.. Morrison desired the officer to hold up
the puppy, as was customary in the baptism
of children and said
As am minister of the church of Scot
land, must proceed according to the cere-
monies of the church."
Certainly said the Major; expect all the
ceremony"
C. Well, then, Major, begin with the usual
question: "You acknowledge yourself the
father of this puppy ?'
a roar of laughter burst from the crowd {;
the officer threw the candidate for baptism
away and thus the witty minister turned the
laugh against the infidel who intended to de-
ride the sacred ordinance.

A Sympathetic Judge.

A suit was recently tried before an Indiana
justice of the peace, wherein lady was
plaintiff and hank defendant The evidence
showed conclusively that the fair plaintiff had
no right to recover: of this no one could have
the " shadow of doubt" Her learned coun-
sci knew we'll that, unless he could get the
sympathy of the justice, his client would have
a "lost cause" He therefore labored hard
in applying the sympathetic cause" He
gushed with eloquence of great warmth in
referring to his clients rights, until finally
great tears came trickling down his cheeks,
at the sight of which the justice was a
very tender-hearted individual-was also
moved to tears. This satisfied the attorney that
the sympathy of the Court was on the lady's
side, and he closed the argument by saying:-
ut does my heart good to believe that this
honorable Court, in the exercise of sound
discretion, will not allow the rights of pure
and noble lady to be trampled beneath the
cloven feet of souless corporation" and
took his seat, as confident that he would get a
Judgment as even the poor lady was. There
upon the justice gave the following compre-
hensive and satisfactory decision. He said !:
'sThe plaintiff in this case is a woman and her
counsel has for the last hour touched the
sympathy of the Court in her behalf and am
glad Of it but think, under the law, that
Justice is on the side of the bank. therefore

Driving a Bargain.

Here is story constructed on the same
principle as the one that told of bow man
got the three youngest turkeys in group of
six by telling the market man he was BIB
clearinghouse k-keeper and wanted three of
his t-t-toughest turkeys, and when they were
selected the sufferer walked off with the other
three. The following yarn is from French
paper:
M. c., having broken an indispensable arti-
Gle of porcelain, goes to the dealer from whom
he had purchased the set to endeavor to re-
place it.
Have you any objections to breaking up
set ?' he says. az bought one from you last
week, and one piece is smashed. 1t was like
this. How much'll you take for that sugar
bowl there, without the cover?"
well, the price is fifteen francs with the
cover, but I'll let you have the bowl by itself
for fourteen. You see, the cover doesn't
amount to much-in point of fact may say it
is worthless -but it would look absurd not to
make some deduction, SO I'll knock off one
franc for the cover"
"What-one franc only? Surely the cover
must be worth more than one franc"
"No, sir; in reality it isn't worth more
than half franc, but seeing it's you I'll call
it franc and let you have the bowl for four
teen"
"Why, by Jove, what an ass I've beenl 1t
wasn't the bowl that my wife told me was
broken-it was the cover. How funny of me-
how stupid !! 1t isn't the bowl want-it's
the cover. Here is your one franc-don't
mind wrapping it up"

The "Hawkeye" Man and the Sea Serpent.

As long as am up here want to see every
thing there is to be seen. So / have looked
upon the sea serpent. A few weeks ago you
published St. John dispatch describing the
sea serpent as seen in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
Since then it has been bathing in the Bay of
Fundy. 1t was as long as clothes line, and
had head like -four barrel, and when it
came into the harbor of st. John it had aplace
on its back for band stand and a reporters
gallery. 1t came the day of the vice-regal
reception, and wanted to hire itself out for
triumphal arch, but there was no takers. 1t
propelled itself along drought the waves with
two sets of paddles which it used with great
dexterity. 1t would have swallowed a man
who was bathing in the bay, only the man
was not there. having gone home previous
ly. 1t pursued one of the International Line
steamers for several miles, and seeing the bar
keeper standing on deck recognized him and
called him by his first name, which leads to
the belief that the sea serpent had wintered
off the coast of Texas. 1t finally gave up the
pursuit of the steamer, but afterwards stop
ped tug and asked the name of the daily
papers in st. John, and if they had said any
thing about him. 1t stood up in the bay to
look at the procession, and cheerfully accosted
the Kings's county cavalry, addressing those
much decorated warriors as the Bushmen,"
which familiarity with local customs rather
conficted with the Texas theory, and pro-
claimed the S. S. provincial. But then the
serpent sails around so much that he acquires
the habits and speech of all countries. The sea-
serpent disappeared altar this, and was seen
but once more in St. John harbor. About FIVE
o'clock in the afternoon the monster rose to
the surface up near the boat yards in Court

Green,ile Daily Ne,rs.

HoNEA PATH, S. c., Nov. Is.
Last night, between and 10 o'clock,
Mr.. VIM. Maddox who lives about ten
miles east of this, on Saluda River, was
called to his door by three unknown men,
who are supposed to have been masked,
and shot dead. Mr.. Maddox and family
had retired, and hearing some one at the
door he got up and asked what was
wanted. One of the men answered :
"Can we get to stay all night with you ?'
Mr.. Maddox replied: II haven't room"
or "the house is crowded.
One of the party then asked if he could
get some fire? and on Mr.. Maddox start
ing to the door with the fire, one Of them
said, "We don't want fire; it is your
money we want" Atthis point strug-
gle ensued and Mrs. Maddox fearing
some injury to her husband, jumped out
Of bed, ran out at the back door of the
house and to Mr.. Vermillion, who lives
some two hundred yards, screaming for
help. A little son, about eleven years
old, hearing his mothers screams, ran
after her, begging her to return to The
house; and not succeeding, he himself
went back, and finding his father on the
ground, went in, and taking a gnn fired
it twice, but to no purpose. Tho men
seeing him running, threatened to shoot
him, but the little fellow kept on and
acted as stated.
Mr.. Vcrmillion got up and on going to
the house of Maddox found him lying ON
his face, some six or eight feet from his
door, and turning him over and feeling
his pulse found he was dead.
I forgot TO mention in its proper place
that one of the men asked Maddox to
givo him change for $50 bill. This, he
said, he could not do as he could not see
we'll, as he had but recently lost an eye.
While Mrs. Maddox was away. and after
the killing they went in the house and
took out a trunk in which they supposed
he kept his money. This was carried a
short distance from the house and broken
open. With the trunk was found two or
three articles belonging to the murder
ers, which it may be well not to men,
ton.
Trial Justice Young acting rs Coroner
summoned q jury, and after cxaming oil
from whom any information OF impor-
tance could be obtained. rendered Il ver-
dict that deceased came to his death Ivy Il
gun shot wound at the hands of person
or persons unknown. Dr.. Reid probed
the wound and found the ball had entered
the breast to the left OF the breast bone
and passing into the heart or severing an
important blood vessel, which must have
caused instant death.
Efforts are being made to find the gull
ty parties. Mr.. Maddox was quiet, innf
fensive citizen, and at times uad conSid-
cradle sums of money. This, it is evil
dent, was the cause of his untimely
death. L.,

was certainly negro.-ED. NEWS.
