were a terror to young girls going into
the bank. The terror rather amused
the lordiings, and the diversion became
standard one.
A good deal of complaint was made to
the owner of the bank, but that shifty
soul wouldn't have dreamed of remon-
strating with such personages. One
memorable day, however,,,a young Bos-
ton girl tripped into the bank as the: dogs
and their masters came up for the rem
devious. The princes hound was re-
strained by long string, and as the
lady came out of the door the dog was
at one side and the prince at the other.
Before she could retreat the dog re-
turned to his master and her ankles were
encircled by the cord. She tripped:: and
fell. The company rushed forward to
help her to her feet, but the prince, as
she stopped over, received O ringing cuff
on the right ear that sent him whirling
against the door. The frightened girl
screamed, and the dog made as if to lacer-
ate her. The hand that had hustled the
prince aside seized the cord, pulled the
dog away from the victim, and then and
there choked the beast until it lay expir-
ing. Then, knowing the code of uni
versity town, he flung his card in the
princes face. The scene passed with
such rapidity that the clerks in the bank
had hardly time to get out. The noble
companions were helpless until the card
fell on the sidewalk.
An hour later the next friend of the
prince came to the American quarters
and laid the challenge before him. The
young man was from Missouri, an in
veterate practical joker, and he gravely
accepted the prefer. He said he would
notify to the prince the weapons ana the
hour as soon as he had consulted a
friend. The friend was merry blade
of the same sort. He solemnly visited
the prince man, naming O'Clock in the
morning in neighborlng valley; wea-
pons, double barrelled shotguns, muzzle
to muzzle. ''But," exclaimed the hor-
1ifed German, "that would be murder"
"Exactly," rejoined the other. "My
friend is bound to have the princes life
for his insult to Miss -" "But we
dare not fight this way in this principal
ity." ''Well, that's the way we fight in
America, and if the prince don't fight he
must apologize or take a thrashing."
The same day the prince drove up in
state to the Americans lodgings. He
was received by that jovial warrior in his
shirt-sleeves, with a long briarwood pipe
smoking plac;dly. Ct have come, said
the stammering youth, "to acknowledge
that [ was in the wrong and you we're in
the right"
eyes" said the other grimly, "that's
good as far as it goes, but you must
write it out and send copy to the lady,"
"But that isn't usual"
SIN our country it is usual, and you
must do it or fetch on your shotguns."
The wretched little prince WINGED, and
retreated helplessly. The apologies
were sent, and the University was de-
prived Of that princely sprig.

PosT FEscEs. The durability of fences
is the first consideration. The most dura-
BILE wood should be selected for posts. such
as red cedar, white cedar, locust, white
oak and other kinds which resist decay q
long time; but the selection Of the kind Of
timber merely is not all. Its durability
depends much on its preparation and the
way in which il is used. II, for instance,
posts are cut and set before seasoning the
moist soil may prevent its drying for a
long time, until it becomes sap.rotten. IL,
however. the soil is porous aad happens to
be very dry this bad result may not occur.
On the other hand. if the timber is cut at
midsummer, when the air is warm aud
drying, and placed where evaporation may
rapidly take place the wood will become
hard like horn and such posts, set in
grosnd that has perfect natural drainage
or even an underdrsin, will remain dry
and last number Of years. Posts set in
wet ground or where they become thor
oughly wet every spring and dried every
summer will soon decay.
