A WssssIss Strategy,

~
An incident which occurred near
Santa Barbara, California, illustrates
the sagacity Of tie weasel. L gentle
mans barn was infested with rats, and
he was greatly annoyed By their depre-
dations They had been gradually
disappearing, however, during the past
few weeks.
The gentleman finally discovered the
cause of their probable disappearance
in q very wide-awake weasel, which
WAS engaged at tie time IN a vigorous
combat with an unusually large-slzed
rat
The latter proved too much for his
adversary, and finally chased his
weaselship out Of the barn. L few
mornings later the gentleman found the
same animals gagged IN q similar
battle
The weasel at last ran away. ss be-
fore. and the rat followed in hot pur-
suit This time, however. The weasel
ran into hole ii had burrowed through
pile of hardened compost
The hole was quite large 81 the en-
trance, but tlle outlet was scarcely
large enough TO admit the passage Of
the weasels body
The weasel darted into the hole, with
the rat at his heels. A moment later
the weasel emerged from the other side,
ran quickly around the compost pile,
and again entered the hole, this tiraesin
the enemy's rear.
The gentleman, interested in the
proceedings. watched the place some
time. and found That only the weasel
came out.
Digging into the compost, he found
the rat quite dead and partly eaten.
TIE weasel had arranged his trap 50
that the rat could enter. but, beeoulin z
closely wedged in the narrow portion
! of the hole. could be attacked at dis
advantage and easily killed

Little Helms

There are some little household hints
which seem almost too trivial to give,
but which nevertheless might make
some day more pleasant, freer of annoy
ance, if known. For instance, we all
know how disagreeable Is the odor of
cabbage or turnips when cooking; so
disagreeable, in fact. that many house
keepers dispense with their use rather
than make the house so uncomfortable.
But the evil can be remedied almost
entirely by dropping a lump Of charcoal
In the water in which these vegetables
are boiled. When boiling greens lie a
large hump Of bread (the size of q hen S
egg) up in . clean cloth. and put It
into the kettle 1t viii absorb al often
siYn odor.

General TFner and Guitsaa.

The fact is not generally known that
General Tyner, First Assistant Post
master General, is a relative Of the as
sassin Guiteau. This is said 10 be the
case. Iyner's sister married Guite2u' :
brother, who now resides in Boston.
The First Assistant Postm aster-Gene ral
is Guiteau's brother-in-law. but lie does
not boast of the relationship. The
query naturally arises why Gaileau did
not apply for q place under Tyner-
This IS explained. by the fact that the
assassin despised Tyner as a man Of
very small caliber, and would have
nothing TO do with him Perhaps this
saved Tyner from being shot Instead q

Connecticut has, owing to the small
subdivisions OF land. probably more
miles Of fences than Kansas. The diff
ference IN the hgures are mainly due
to the fact thai IN Kansas large guam
tity of land has been taken up by set
tiers, and that new fences have been
required. while in Connecticut miles of
stone wall have stool many years. and
require nothing but a small amount of
labor to keep them in repair. The

A Marriage That Did Not Come
Oh:

While looking over the marriage
record yesterday morning reporter of
this journal found one which had
been issued the day before returned
%unexecuted and pasted over the stub
in the book. Upon inquiry he learned
that a hack had driven up to the door
of the county court clerks Office dur
ing the forenoon and a little lady in
black handed over the license to the
clerk, with the request to erase it
from his books. This he could not
do, as it was part Of the record, but
agreed to paste it in the book over the
original.
The young lady stated that an offer
Of marriage had been made her by the
gentleman who procured the license,
and she, thinking it in fun, answered
yes. What was her amazement dur
ing the morning when he appeared at
her home with the license and a
preacher to execute it. Startled and
confused, but not hopelessly so, she
peremptorily ordered him to dismiss
the minister and return the license.
He refused and she took the duty
upon herself.
