Jupfter's Lottery

1t is said that the God Jupiter once
made lottery in heaven and allow
ed both mortals and gods to hold
tickets. The grand prize was wis
dom, and Minerva held the winning
card. This caused trouble among the
mortals, and Jupiter, to appease
them, offered folly as a second prize,
which they all drew, and were highly
pleased with it. Ever since that time
folly has been held in high estimation
by mortals. If they wish to- be noted
for wisdom they should buy PERUNA
of the nearest druggist, and use it for
the various ailments which are known
to humanity. Thousands are learn
ing wisdom in this regard, and are
loud in their praises Of this wonder
full discovery OF DR.. S. B. Hartman.
Buy bottle and win the prize once
carried off by the famous goddess Of
wisdom.

J. Crittenden. and James Arnold,
son of Rev. Isaac Arnold. With
physiques 1.-THE and sinewy as the
thoroughbred, horse of that bluegrass
region, with the heritage Of honOred
names and wealth that was lavish
ed upon their schooling, these two
young men and bosom friends might
have climbed to any position of hon
or among a people who love to be-
stow honors upon robust men of
courage and culture. But Tom Crit
tenden and Jim Arnold early took
to drink, in a town that boasts the
manufacture of the finest whiskey in
the world, and introduced the breezy
affiuence of frontier dash into the very
proper society of a staid old village.
Tn word. they painted the town
a sun set-red, and finally made it too
hot to hold them. Arnold drifted
west and became the prince of cow
boys. Crittenden went to Louisville
and took leadership among bar-rOom
broilers. Arnold, while driving cattle
on one of the western trails, in COM
pany with degenerate son of Lord
Paget, was shot and killed by negro.
Crittenden killed negro for testify.
ing against him at misdemeanor
trial before country magistrate, and
has Just been sentenced to cOnfne-
ment in the Kentucky penitentiary

or morther and not less tenacious.

Battleh Id Humor.

The Century.
Many humorous incidents occurred
on battlefelds. A confederate colo
mel ran ahead of his regiment at Nal
vern Hill, and discovering that the
men were not following him as closely
as he wished, he uttered a fierce oath
and exclaimed
"COme on! Do you want to live
forever?"
The appeal was irresistible, and
many poor fellow who had laughed
at the colonefs queer exhortation,
laid down his life soon after.
A shell struck the wheel of fed

engagement at Fair Oaks, and, shiv-
ering the spOkes, dismantled the can.

to the racket in the back yard, and
comes to the same state Of mind as

A Massachusetts Romance.

From Boston Telegram,
A story of a wealthy manufacturer
of Lynn is told to-day which not only
astonishes his friends, but which is
the talk of ali the Boston club-rooms
this evening. The man referred to,
while a poor bookkeeper ten years ago,
married his present wife. While on
their wedding tour a daughter was
born. The fact was kept from the
knowledge of friends and relatives and
the infant was, by an agent, placed
in the care Of a thrifty Irisbman.
For a year or two the child's expenses
were paid by its parents. After that
no more money was received, and the
woman having charge of the child
was unable to get any trace of its
parents or relatives. The only cIew
she had was a handkerchief among
the child's clothes bearing some
initials. She brought up the girl at
her own expense, and she is now
very progressing young girl. Not
long ago she became afflicted with an
affection of the eye resembling to
cataract. Her guardian took her
an occulist, who became much inter-
ested in the case and said that the
only one he had ever seen like it was
that of Mrs. Blank of Lynn. The
Irish woman instantly noticed that
the initials were the same as those
on the treasured handkerchief. An
investigation was begun, and it was
ascertained that the poor bookkeeper
had become the Lynn manufacturer,
worth almost a million. When the
facts were presented to him privately,
he admitted them, and paid $1,000
for his daughters bringing up, and
agreed to allow her $1,000 annually
hereafter. The couple have other
children who do not know that they
have an elder sister. 10 the belief
that the whole story could be kept
quiet, the disowned child is still un-
acknowledged. The facts as above
outlined are becoming so widely
known in private circles that it is
probable that the names of all con.
cerned will soon be published.

valley, his own soldiers thought his
bulletins and orders somewhat strained
in their rhetoric. At one of the nu-
merous running engagements that
marked that disastrous campaign, a
private in one of the western regi-
ments was mortally wounded by q
shell. Seeing the mans condition, a
chaplain knelt beside him, and OPEN
ing his Bible at random, read out
SIMPSONS slaughter of the Philistines
with the jaw-bone of an asa. He had
not quite finished when, as the story
runs, the poor fellow interrupted the
reading by saying:
"Hold on, chaplain. Don't deceive
a dying man. Isn't the name of John
Pope signed TO that?" IA
a column of troops was pushing
forward over the long and winding
road in ThorOdghfare Gap to head of
Lee after his retreat across the PotO-
mae at the close Of the Gettysburg
campaign. Suddenly the signal Off
Ger who accompanied the general in
command, discovered that some of
his men, posted on a high hill in the
rear, were reporting the presence of a
considerable body of confederate
troops on the top of the bluffs on the
right. A halt was at once sounded,
