Wanted to Rattle.
(From the Detroit Free Press. ]

From the Detroit Free Press.
Yesterday, after farmers wife had
sat shivering for an hour or more in the
wagon standing on the Central Market,
she got down with look of business in
her eye and began to make inquiries
concerning her old man. After repeat
ed failures she learned that So little old
man, with red comforter around his
neck and sheepskin mitteus on" was in
a saloon near by, rafting for turkey.
She walked straight over to the place
and made her way in to find the report
true. There was lean, lank bird on
the table, and the old man, whose eyes
were red and tongue thick, stood there
with the dice-box, shaking away at ten
cents a throw against an imaginary
person.
Samuel, what you doing here?" de-
manded the woman, as she fastened a
hand to his coat-collar.
''After turk hic)ey, Zuzan," he bic
coughed.
''And have you got one?"
"Noz yet, buz this ere rhrow'L fetch
him, G'way, Zuzan, an gimme show!"
She put the other hand up to his col
lar, and sudden twist laid him on the
sawdust. Then, Selling the dilapidat-
ed turkey by one leg she swept the
counter clear of dice and box and land
ed the bird on the head of the man
behind it.
"Shay, Zuzan-" began the old
man, as he struggled up, but she rushed
to the door, bounced him out and
headed him for the wagon, and then
held the door open long enough to say ::

John Browns Gun.
Iron the st. Louis Republican

lprom tne LOUIS fsepuDl1cdn.J
Many curiosities are owned in ST..
Louis, but none are more highly priced
than the gun of "Old" John Brown,
whose "body lies Wondering in the
grave" The relic is in possession of
Police Officer Tom Allen, who preserves
the peace among the bulls and bears on
change, and he stands ready on all oc-
casions to exhibit it to his admiring
friends. When asked, yesterday after
noon, whether he really possessed the
gun taken from Brown at Harper's
Ferry, he told this story: Shortly
before the close of the war [ was en-
ployed as a clerk at the quartermaster's
department at Harper's Ferry along
with young man named Taylor. The
young man and myself soon became
very intimate friends, and quite fire.
quently he entertained me at his home
in Harper's Ferry. During one of my
visits at his home he brought long
double barreled shotgun into the parlor
and handed it to me to look at, saying
as he did so: THAT weapon is the
Identical weapon that was taken from
John Brown when his gang and himself
were captured at the arsenal or engine
house. Nearly every man who assisted
in the capture secured something from
some one of the prisoners. Some of
the raiders took swords and others
carbines, but it fell to the lot of my
father to take this gun from the noted
Brown. At the time the weapon was
confiscated it contained three balls in
each barrel. Knowing the young man
was man of his word, became very
much interested in the relic, and tried
to obtain possession of it. He refused
to part with it until four years ago when
he presented it to me with his compli-
ments, retaining the bullets it had con-
tanned as "reminiscences of the part taken
by his father in aiding in the historic
capture. The gun is in splendid con-
d1tlon, and no further back than last
Sunday killed several wild ducks with
1t while hunting over in Illinois. II is
quite heavy, and has much longer bar
rels than those of most modern shot
guns; yet, in my opinion, it is one of
the best weapons in the country at the
present time" The reporter, at the
suggestion of Mr.. Allen, visited that
gentlemans room and examined the
weapon. It's stock of black walnut, is
somewhat straight than stocks are
usually made; it's barrels, which are
loaded from the muzzle, being forty
two inches in length. The gun was
made by a manufacturer IN Philadelphia
named Rogers.

Odd London Bets.
[From the New York Graphic.]

From the New York Graphic.]
The. London swelIs are the most in
veterate betters in the world. lime
hangs SO heavily on their hands that in
the excitement of uncertainty they find
grateful relief. a curious bet was
made in one of the London clubs some
years ago that will perhaps point NOR
al. 1t was that certain member could
not in two hours on London bridge sell
100 new guineas at penny apiece. The
man took his place on the bridge with
little tray on which he had the coins.
He informed the passers-by that they
were genuine gold coins from the Bank
of England and that they were to be
had for a penny each. The cartmen
and policeman laughed at him. When
the time expired, such is human incre-
dulity that he had sold but two, which a
maid servant bought to amuse her little
charges. Another peculiar bet made in
London was by well known barrister
for large amount that he could, at a
certain hour, block Fleet Street IL the
busiest part of the day and at the mar
rowest point. Half an hour before the
time appointed he took his stand on the
opposite side of the street from an lnsur-
ance Office which had large lion over
the door. He was dressed like necrom-
ANGER with long cloak and wearing a
tall pointed hat and large glasses over
his eyes. Under one arm he carried an
enormous book and in the other held a
large telescope, which he every few
minutes pointed at the lion after inspect
ing the book. People gathered around,
and he told them that in the Book of
Balderdash it was written that in half
an hour that lion would wag it's tail.
Slowly walking up and down, and every
few minutes taking a look at the lion
through the glass, he attracted the at
tention of everybody, and the awaiting
crowd grew every minute denser.
Then wagons stopped to see what the
trouble all was, and these jammed 9th
ers until the whole street was crowded
and impossible. The barrister slipped
away in the crowd, but most obstinate
jam ensued, and it was more than an
hour before the police could clear the
thoroughfare.

Gently made up his mind to move, and,
as he had become greatly attached to
the frame house In which he lived, he
determined to take the structure with
him, together with the furniture it con-
tanned. Yesterday, according to the
programme he had formulated, he had
the house placed on rollers and started
on its journey. AS darkness closed in
on him before he could complete his
task, he found it necessary to let the
house remain on a side track of the
Missouri Pacific Railway Company
over night. The track was in en- out-of
theway place, and he quite naturally
supposed it had been abandoned by the
company. In fact, he was so well sat-
isfed that the building was perfectly
secure that he and his children went
to bed in one of it's appointments when
the time for retiring arrived. While
the happy family were dreaming sweet
dreams one of the locomotives of the
Missouri Pacific Company struck one
side of the building and came out at
the opposite side, passing through the
parlor and crushing through the floors
and walls. The dreamers, who slept
j an adjoining room, were shaken out of
their beds, and the engineer and fire.

most frightened into spasms, but no
one was injured.

FREEDOM.
BY LORD ALFRED TENNYsoN.

o thou so fair in summers gone
While yet thy fresh and virgin soul
Informd the column'd Parthenon,
The glittering capitol;
Sc fair in southern sunshine bathed,
But scarce of such majestic mien
As here with forehead vapor-swathed
In meadows ever green;
For thou-when Athens reign'd and Rome,
Thy glorious eyes were dfmm'd with pain
To mark in many a freeman's home
The slave, the scourge, the chain;
o follower of the vision, still
In motion to the distant CLEAN,
Howe'er blind force and brainiess will
May jar thy golden dream,
Who, like great nature, wouIdst not mar
BY changes all too fierce and fast
This order of our human star,
This heritage of the past
o scorner of the party cry
That wauders from the public good,
Thou-when the nations rear on high
Their idol smeared with mud.
And when they rolled their idol down
Of saner worship sanely proud
Thou leather of the lawless crown
AS of the lawless crowd;
How long thine ever-growing mind
Hath still d the blast and strewn the wave,
Though some of late would raise wind
To sing thee to thy grave.
Men loud against all forms of power
Unfuruishd brows, tempestuous tongues,
Expecting all things in an hour
Brass mouths and iron lungs!

The WelI-dressed Man.
from the Mentor. I

The golden rule in dress is to keep
clear of extremes. The well-dressed
man never wears anything striking or
peculiar, and his garments are always of
the best material, one suit that cost $50
being preferable to two suits that cost
$25 each-and the tailor's risF, it will
be observed is just the same in both
cases. We are bound to add, however,
that the gentleman who has one suit
instead of two can not escape embar-
rassment when it comes to sending his
trousers to the shop for the purpose of
having the wrinkles pressed out OF
them. The proper cut for coat and
vest is that which makes them fit tight
around the waist and loose over the
chest, as the polite citizen is admonished
at every turn that he will not only look
better, but also feel better if he stands
straight.

An Extraordinary Case.

A young lady living in the vicinity
of North East, named Lizzie Patterson
has been relieved from life of suffer
ing, says an Erie, Pa, dispatch to the
Pittsburg (Pa. Commercial Gazette,
which for fifteen years had not an al
leviating circumstance. When a girl at
the age of 10 she was stricken with
rheumatism. A season of treatment at
the hands of the most skilled physicians
failed to relieve the sufferer. At the
age of Is her muscles became so rigid
that the power of locomotion was en-
tirely destroyed. Since then she was
confined to her bed and chair and was
unable to do herself the slightest serv-
ice. Five years ago the muscles be-
came so hard that the joints of the
lower limbs could not work. The
fbrous tissues of the arms and hands
were next affected, so that they were en-
tirely useless and soon, like the lower
limbs, bore no semblance to the human
anatomy. A year ago the muscles con-
trolling the head and neck were con-
torted SO as to draw the head out OF
shape. The muscle in the face then har-
dened and closed the lower jaw so tight
that teeth had to be removed in order
to make an aperture through which
food could be introduced. To give the
patient even a moderate amount OF
food required three hours work, during
which time the effort at swallowing
caused excruciating pain. Vomiting
and suffocation finally caused death.
Miss Patterson was 20 years of age and
at the time of her death she was actual
" petrifed with disease. The case is
exciting great interest in the medical
profession.
