other boy were hunting near this city, the
latter having killed bird, when Bert re-.
quested to be allowed to shoot. The gun
was double barreled shot gun, both trig-

chance to do soms heavy kicking, which
it did. In the course of its backward ac-
ten the hammers struck Bert on the up-

wound was properly dressed, and the vic

Los Angeles Times.
When Hancock was stationed in
the city in 1861, as Quartermaster
OF the Southern District of California,
he was an athlete of no small pre5en-
tons. Among the animals used for
transportation over which he had
charge were a number of camels,
some of which were the possessors
Of vicious tempeHs. One a large
buck, was a continual source of
trouble, and he generally made it
lively for the unlucky individual who
had occasion to go within the enclos-
ure i'll which he was confined. On
one occasion Hancock went into the
corral on some matter of business.
but as soon as the old camel saw
him he started on the dead run for
his uniucKy victim, and soon a

most approved style was taking
place. The hero of Gettysburg.
wlth-a hayea't-got-long- to- live ox-
presi5or on his face, was first thrown
into the air, his heels pointing
straight toward the heavens, aud the
next moment hurled VITA irresistible
force to the earth. Several rounds
were fought without Hancock loos
ing his grip, but the camel was just
getting into the right trim for an all
day fight, and being within few !eot
Of the fence, Hancock watched his
opportunity, and suddenly released
his hold and started for the house.
How he got over the the-foot fence
has neverbeen satisfactorily settled,
as Hancock was always ret!cent on
the subject.

The liz Fated Ship.

In speaking OF the recent wreck of
the City Of Columbus at sea, the
Atlanta Journal describes the scene in
the following pnngant paragraph:
Nowhere in the history of disas-
tiers at sea can details be pointed out
more sad and horrible than those
which have been chroniclei by the
press relative to The wreck of the
City OF Columbus. The pictnre is
one too terrible to be contemplated.
The shock, the panic, the budding
women and chillren, reused from
their slnmber5 only to be swallowed
10y the ravcnOus waves; the freeznp
men dropped one by one from the
rigging into the jaws Of death the
binding darkness, the bowling storm
the rush and roar Of the breakers
the despairing cry of the drowning.
all these and the uninaginable hor.
ror OF the situation make up the de
tails Ola tragedy whose memory will
IonS haunt the hearts If all.
Through the dark picture. like stray
beams Of wintry sun, shines here
and there the spIendor Of some hero
&c deed; some act Of superb chiyalry
in the face Of death, proving that
mans soul can rise superior to every
adverse circumstance and asset. in
disaster and death even, its divine
di~lity.
10 the hearts in our own city who
are now mourning the death Of
loved one, taken from them in such
an awful way in the bloom of her
life, the Journal extends It's sinccrest
sympathy. May God strengthen
them in their need"

Payment Of Debts.

: A large number Of people seem to
fancy, whenpaying bill, that they
are confering great favor upon the
man who has entrusted his goods to
their home for weeks, even months.
They act as if they had receiv-
ed actually nothing in
return, and were simply
doing work of charity. The
man who buys commodities of any
kind usually does so OF his own ac-
cord; ordinarily there is nothing com
pulsoEy about the transaction. He
makes his purchase and gets the
worth of his money, presumably. in
goods of whatever kind. This places
buyer and seller on an equality. If
the buyer could make better bar
gain elsewhere, very likely he would
do it-for in trade, when dollars and
cents are involved, friendship doesn't
count for much People so where
they can get the most for their mon
ey. Having done so the seller con-
fers a favor upon the buyer, at least
equal to that which the former re-
ceiVes in payment of his bill. Then
why should collector be subject to
SO much discourtssy? A well-brel
man, one who has a proper apprecia-
ton Of what is due to others, is new
er guilty Of such impoIiteness. The
collector who calls for his money is
treated with as much respect and con-
sideration as is shown the buyer when
he makes purchases. This dcport-
ment should be universal, and the
man who departs from it and who
pays the money he honestly owe
grudgingly and with all marked ex-
pressions of illwlll toward the re-
ceiying party is lacking in one of
the most Important essentials of fair
and more than that in business tact.

\ Romantic Episode iii the
Lives OF Two Lovers.

romantic episode III the lives Of
two lovers is at present exciting
great interest in the vicinity of Coal
town, Pa. William Craig, a young
farmer, and Mary Barker, the eigh-
teen-year-old daughter Of William
Barker, also farmer, were to have
been married Con Christmas day,
1863. Ga the evening Of the 7th Of
December, in the above named year,
there was a social party at farmer
Bankers house, and among the guest
was a young man from this village.
Miss Barker dlnced with him twice
in succession, and young Craig re-
proved her for such marked attention
to another, and told her that he did
not wish her to dance again with the
young man in question. This arous-
ed the spirit Of the young lady, aad
she replied t.as she would dance with
him or any one else she chose and as
many times as she liked. Craig then
informed her that she might do so,
but she wouldn't see him again for
twenty years. To this she taunting
y replied that she couldn't stay a
way from her twenty hours if he tried
ever so hard" Craig went home
and the next day he was missing.
He lived with his parents, who were
unable to find any trace of him.
Miss Barker vowed she never would
60 into or receive company again un-
till he returned. As years passed by
no trace Of the missing son were re-
ceiyed, his parents came to lcok up
on him as dead. Miss Barker, howey-
Ell, had singular faith that he would
come back some day. She kept her
vow as to living u secluded life, and
few people eyer saw her after the
night she hal quarrelod with her low
er.
Last Friday evening, which was
the 9TH inst, a stranger knocked at
the door of oil Mr.. Barker's house
and asked to sec Mss Barker He
was large fne-looking man about
forty years ofage. He was admitted,
ana when Miss Barker appeared he
held out his hand said:
"Mary Barker, didn't tell you that
You wouldn't see me again in twenty
years."
1t was William Craig. He return
ed to his parents home in the after
noon. Both his father and mother
were still living. The secret of his
arrival was kept and when he appear
ed in so dramatic manner in the
presence of his old sweetheart she
tainted in his arms.
Craig story of the disappearance
and long absence was that he hal
gone straight to Philadelphia after
leaving home, and there enlisted in
the army under an assumed name
He served until the end Of the war
and was mustered ont at PHILADELPHIA.
He longed very much to return
home, but lie permitted his determi-
nation to remain away twenty years
10 control him, and lie went directly
to Nebraska. There he took I'D a
tract of land and went to farming
remaining there until the twenty
years were up. lIo resolved to time
his return and the meeting Of his old
sweetheart, if she was still alive ana
unmarried, at as near the hour of his
leaving her as 1t WAS possible to do.
lie came back with an ample fortune,
and found matters much as he had
left them. Tie wedding that did not
come of twenty years ago will be eel
ebrated at the approaching Christ
mas,
