The Scioto Gazette relates that once during
the Fremont campaign of 1856, when flag
raIsiugs and mass meetings were the uni

parents left him aud his older sister at home
while they went on week's visit several
miles away. The ten-year-old boy seized
upon the opportunity to have u flag raising of
his own. So he went across Rocky Fork and
prospected around until he found tall,
straight sassafrass pole that exactly suited
his ideas. With borrowed hatchet he
feTled the sapling and trimmed it,
and then started to convoy it

knew no backing out. Having conveyed it
laboriously TO tho edge of tho Fork, he swan
across, pushing his prize before him. Then
came the tug of war, The bank up which
the pole had TO DO taken was long steep, and
rugged little short, in fact of cliff. His
sister was enlisted in the cause, and with her
help Ben" finally got the troublesome stick
where he desired it.. Taking u couple of
child's petticoats respectively red and blue,
and some white muslin, he evolved flag,
fastened ii to the top of the pole, called in all
of the neighbors' boys, and raised it. The
enterprise cost him weeks hard work, but
he did it, and when his folks returned Free

as the best--hoated in triumph over the yard.

while at the antics of the squirrel and cat. An
Older son of Mr. Glover's then took shotgun
and killed the squirrel, whereupon the cat
became strangely distressed and would not
be comforted. She walked around mewing
and calling, but the poor little squirrel did
not go'to the cat. Her playmate being dead,
the cat hid in the barn and kept out of sight.

Strange Creatures in n Buuoh of Ban anas.

The consumers of bananas will do well to
inspect the fruit before eating it, less they
may have queer things pumped from their
stomachs, A fruit dealer in Emira found u
number of curious little animals in bunch
of bananas received from Jamaica. An
examination disclosed nest in the center
Of the bunch, and seated in it was an
animal resembling mouse, though diff
forcnt from it III many respects.
The young ones arc mouse colored,
with large, bright eyes, and their tails are
fully as long us their bodies Tho mother is
of reddish color, with unusually large
luminous eyes for so small an animal. Her
tail is lengthy and bushy Under her breast
is u sac or pouch similar to that of kangaroo
in which the little ones take refuge at the
slightest approach of danger. The young
ones sit ON her tail and are carried about.
The AduortiSer says several scientific gentle
men have viewed the little ones, but no one
could properly classify them in the catalogue
of animals.

"What do you drink with your turtle P'
asked Harry Gumbloton, after the applause
had subsidized.
Brandy is considered the right thing"
replied the register.

Gentlemen, there is only one juice of the
grape that is the correct thing to drink with
turtle, 1t is not brandy neither is it sherry,
1t is burgundy, and the brand should be
Chambertin. Few people know what con-
comitants are appropriate to this delightful
meat but try Chambertin and you will never
drink brandy with your turtle or terrapin."

IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER MEN.

The most important newspaper
men OF New York city are the report
ers and "copy" readers. 1t is the re-
porter who collects all the live news
Of the day, and the 'copy" reader
edits it and decides what shall be
printed and what shall go into the
waste basket. The editor reads the
results, and puts in the shape of an
editorial his opinions, which, by the
way, are not always read. At the best
these opinions are second hand, as
the editor gets his impressions OF an
event from the tone of article he reads.
The reporter writes up tine case as he
sees it, and the editor has no choice
but to view it in the sane light.
Hence, the editor but amplifes the
views and opinions of the reporter.
Most people buy newspapers not for
the editorials or advertisements, but
for the bright and newsy stories
written by the reporters. The most
successful newspapers are those which
have capable staff of reporters who
are able to write what they see in an
intelligent and attractive style.
Through some confusion OF ideas the
editors get all the credit and most of
the pay for the good work done by the
and hereporter's only hope
"a vain one-is to become an editor
some day and gain the credit OF the
work OF other reporters.

WHAT's IN A NAME?-A Washing
ton colored man who had applied for
500 pension, the other day received
an envelope from the Treasury De-
partment containing 500. An ac-
auaintance in the department identi-
fed him and he drew the money. A
few days afterwards gentleman ap-
peared at the Treasury inquiring
what had become of the money which
had been promised him. He was
shown the check with the indorse-
ment of his name, but accompanied
by cross. The gentleman was nat
urally indignant, not only at the loss
of the money, but at this accusation
against his literary attainments. In
yestigation showed that his and the
colored mans name were the same
even to the initial. The colored cap
italist was not found until he had
spent nearly half the money. His
friends raised the deficit and he re-
turned the full amount. He was
blighted being. however, after these
few short hours of luxury.

two miners were at work taking down
the coal in the splint seam at the
Ferniegare Colliery, at depth of
nearly 100 fathoms from the surface,
a frog leapt from the face Of the coal
in quite lively state. The coal,
which was very hard, showed cavity
that had been the singular abode of
the frog. The animal at the time OF
writing was still alive, but much at
tenuated. 1t measured eight inches

Droop now your lids and hide from me

And gaze and gaze my heart away,
And lose myself in finding you.
