Palestine, March -. If the people

lican state convention on April 10Th.
next, they will be disappointed. East
TaNas will send up much larger dele
cations than ever before, and the split

the Cuney-Nelson crowd, says that
Dick Nelson, whose funds are at low
ebb, has determined rather than miss
the convention To start on fo.t from

"Lightnng," said a tall angular,
red-faced man, who, on a river boat,
had Just witnessed terrific flash.
"Why gentlemen" he continued,
turning to a group Of acqaaintances
who were rather demoralized, "you
don't call that lightning? Well, I'll
be dogged if amt surprised. Over
!onder in Porter county, Geogia, we
have that as a regular thing. Every
man, woman and child is charged so
that when stranger comes TO town
and shakes hands he always gets
knocked down as soon as they grip.
"Yes, it's curious. That's where
they manufacture all these electric
boys, and sometimes they overdo it.
One got so charged the other day, l
see accordin' to the local press, that
when he happened. to reach over and
touch his foot, so completing the cir
cult, there came clap of thunder
that was heard three miles, and when
the folks round about recovered from
shock about four hours after, they ran
in, and all that was left Of the boy
was a couple of glass marbles that lie
had in his pocket. Fact, / kin show

a Kissing Record.

a recently deceased Frenchman
kept record. Twenty years ago he
married, and IN his wedding day
took the original resolution to keep a
yearly account of the number of kisses
exchanged with his wife until their
union became severed by the death of
one or the other.
just before he died he confded
this account to friend for publica-
ton. During the first year OF we'd
ded life the kisses exchanged reached
the colossal figure of 36,500, or 100
a day on an average; but in the fol-
lowing twelve months there was "a
notable decrease, mot more than 10000
being inscribed on his register, while
the third year shows a still greater
falling of, the average number OF
kisses being but ten day. And af-
ter the lapse of five years further
reduction is Recorded, and the account
keepers task was simplifed, for only
two kisses were exchanged during
each twonty-four hours Zone on ris-
ing, one on retiring TO rest" Later
on, during the last ten years or his
married life, they "only kissed each
other on leaving for or returning
from a journey" and he had very lit
tic trouble in making up his annual
domestic statistics.-London Stan
