TOMBSTONE, I'LL, Jnly 2i.-The failure of
Willard's bank, which at first was not no.
garded as of any serious character, daily
grows In importance. Willard has ab.
seconded, and appearances now indicate that
the. default Of bank will reach $4,000,
with assets practically nothing. Willard's
whereabouts are kept very secret. The
general opinion Is that he lost nothing by
speculation, but that II is an out and out
case ofrobbery. Some suspicion Is directed
against his family on account OF doubtful
propriety since his disappearance.

KEEP CHERRY One of the most
delightful sights we know of is that
of sunshine in human faces. How
much a man draws Us to himself. See
his large, sunny nature. Nothing
seems to cloud his face. While Others
are gloomy and discouraged he is full
of hope and full of courage He looks
on the bright side he laughs at i'd
versity and snaps his fingers in the
face of discouragements. He tones
up all around him. Soldiers on the
march feel the invigorating effect oi
such mans presence. Tired wor-
kers everywhere are cheered and
strengthened by the sight of such faces
and the sound of such voices.
This is a priceless possession TO a
mother, wife, teacher, minister or
any leader Of men. Think Of the dis
couragement and WEAKNESS of work

she had TO wait on him and listen 10
his complainings day and night. 1t
would have tried the patience of
saint to have been compelled to live
in the same house with a man bur-

as Job was. and it is handly to be
wondered at that. goaded 10 despera-

Not only did the neighbors drop in
continually to see how he was getting
along. each one with q different re-
medy for boils, but relatives came
from long distances and Of course they
had to be entertained and fed. This
made great deal Of work for Mrs.
Job, who on account of her husband .

to keep hired girl. Had she not
been q remarkable woman, she nev :

The SPECTRE OF THE VTcKsBURo
SIEGE.-I remember to have been
standing on knoll in front of my
headquarters on q beautiful night.
listening to the FIRE of batteries. The
moon was out in al its splendor, aud
flashes that cleaned from the mouths
of hundred-guns could be seen for
miles to the right and left. Standing
upon an adjacent hill to my right a
tall figure was seen clothed in white.
It seemed to be that of a man at least
seven feet high. but the uniform was
not that Of soldier In tones never
to be forgotten and that echoed from
hill to valley and from valley to hill,
the words Cease firing were heard
from this unearthly- looking figure, as

The REToRT SARcAsTIc.-Judge
Tarbell tells the following joke on
himself. A short time after his re-
irement from the bench, he happened
to meet an old friend whom be had
not seen for some time. The Judge,
all smiles and heathfulness, eEEeryes-
ced over his friend in such q way as
to provoke the inquiry:
what Office are you candidate for
now, JudgeY
The Judge made q dsprecatory
movement with an outward turned
palm, and said
"For none at all. my dear brother;
I'm simply candidate for the King
dom of Heaven.
His friend regarded him sOrrowful-
ly for an instant, and then, with more
vii than politeness. and more profan-
ity than either. said
"I'll bet you don't carry d-n
township I
Doubtless the Judge lost sight Of
the mans profanity in admiration Of
his sublimely truthful candor.
