An UunauItcrnted FaI,ehood

The story invented by some colossal ass that
several members of the National Rifles had visited
Cape May and returned to Washington clothed in
the uniform of the Light Infantry Corps Is calcu-
lacd to Empress those who read it that this super
serviceable idiot has just escaped from lunatic
asylum. Three members of tho National Rifles
were ut Cape May-Mr. Keneaster, who spent u
day or two there while ON his way to Atlantic
CITY; Willis Magruder, who ran over for few
hours from Rehobolh Beach, and Mr., Coombs,
tlemen received every attention at the hands OF
the w. l.. |. Corps, aud len Cape May much pleased
with their visit several days before the return O
the Corps, This unmanly and ungcn lemanly
effort to create an i'll feeling between the lnian'
try " aud the " Rifles " meets with the condemua-
ton of all, and those who have been trying tC
promote it will realize that the gentlemen who
constitute these two splendid organizations have
only contempt for such mean business.

"Goodby, papa"
The plump, white arms OF Erica Brown were
thrown about her fathers neck, and the pretty
flee with its rtdnt mouth and cunning dimples
was pressed closely TO the bronzed cheek of the
farmer as he stood In the, kitchen doorway mo-
ment before going out 10 his daily toll
Il am going to plow the south meadow this
morning, my darling" he said 10 the girl, "and
when noon comes you must have my accounts as
treasurer of the church oil arranged because the
building committee viii be here after dinner, and
am to turn over the money III my hands, SO that
the erection of the new church IN the little dell
Just beyond where we buried that mousse colored
heifer two years ago last spring can be commenced
at once"-and, kissing his daughter again, Farmer
Brown took bite of hard tobacco aud went away
INTO the glad sunlight
The petals Of the June roses had fallen like a
pink carpet along the edge of the woods, contrast :
Ing prettly with the vivid green OF the grass and
leaves. Above the hum of insects and the twite r.
ing of the birds rose the sturdy voice of Farmer
Brown, swearing at the off mule. "Get up, darn
It he said. But the mule only waved Its ears in
seDsuous, lauguid fashion, and looked wistfuly
into the next meadow, where the starry eyed kline
were grazing. and the old sorrel mare that had q
splint on her near front leg was quaffing the in.
cense of the new BON day. Picking up Il short
stick, the farmer advance and struck the faithful
m ule cruel blow Just abaft his midship ribs
Stretching out his hint legs in dreamy, listless
moment Farmer Brown was sailing in the far
blue overhead.
The little church in the NOISY dell is not com :
pleted yet and the building committee is auXously
waiting for the treasurer to come down.-Ff0m

WEST VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS.
Constitution Ad opted and Officers Elect.
ed-An Enthusiastic Meeting.


The regular meeting of the West Virginia Re-
publican Association was held in their rooms in
lie Droit building last evening, Major Theophilus
Gains in the chair, and George A. Huntington
officiating secretary. After dsposing of routine
business the committee on resolutions reported
the amended constitution and bylaws, which,
after some discussion, were adopted by the asso
citation. Under this new constitution an eec ion
of officers was In order which resulted as follows:
President, Major TheOphilus Gaines; vice. pregi-
dents, Hon. Charles Davies, Captain ]. NJ Pipes,
DR.. Henderson, and Captain G. c. Cole; cores
ponding secretary, Colonel Frey; recording secre-
tary George A. Huntington; treasurer, Cap ain g.
G. Cole. The appointment of the committees on
documents, transportation, and executive COM
mittee were, at the suggestion of the chair, laid
over until the next meeting. Thomas A..
Gibson, of Grafton, w. Va, was admitted to
membership, and inquiries were then made aS to
the condition of political matters in the State.
Captain Blrrick responded, and said that he had

Gratis heal their party dissensions In this district
1t was evident that it only required earnest and
united work to secure Congressman at this
point. Further remarks i'll this direction were
made by Captain Pipes, Mr.. Murphy, and DR..
King. From the observations of these gentlemen
it may be deduced there is good grounds for p e.
dieting that there will be most decided revolu-
ton in the War State, aud with careful canvass,
especially in the back counties of the first and
omd districts the election of at least two Republi-
can members of Congress may be regarded us
almost un absolute certainty.

THE CHANGE IN MINsTRELsy.
[Fron Me,0 York JournaLs.l


In ministrelsy during the past few years few CON-
panies have achieved greater reput than that
OF Messrs. Barlow, Wilson, Primrose Il West. The
opening of the present season saw a change in the
organization OF the company, Barlow and Wilson
retiring, but their place was taken by MI. Thatcher
and the firm is now Thatcher, Primrose & West.
10 all who saw the company last evening 1t was at
once apparent that the change had not affected the
org aniztun, except to better II, and finer minstrel
show could hot be asked, The company is made up
of artists in their lines and tnough the
entertainment last evening was but the fourth since
the organization OF the company, they worked AS
smoothly as though they had often been together.
The social session going to make up the first part
excelety arranged and shows the yocalists AT their
best Among them are William +, Holmes, Hughey
Dougherty, Frank Howard, VIII Raymond, and
George Edwards. TO say nothing of Thatcher and
West.
Frank L. NlcNish introduc the second part with
his speciality In dancing, and novelties without end
follow. One of the most amuSing-and better act is
seldom seen-is that of the Rankins II is much the
same mus cal melange as OF old, but all three are
comedians and kept the house hilarious. The clog
dancing Is exceptionally fine, many of the tabeauN
being elaborated will great for effect. Thatcher
and Dougheriy make speeches, aud the whole con-
cludes with musical and at the same time original
burle,que, Introducing Mr.. Burt shepard, who has a
soprano voice oil remarkable power and many novel
ties.
