the report says: 1.-THE ore has proved

"Talk of cheekr observed the proprie

most alarming instance / ever yet heard
of came under my own observation Sat
urday. A little after noon handsomely
attired young woman entered the store.
She might have been % or Whereabouts.
Walking up to the manager, she said,
with knowing little smile:
"Would you please give me piece Of
paper in which to wrap my rubbers?'
"Certainly, miss was the answer,
and he handed her two large sheets OF
wrapping paper, which she took, and
then stood hesitating and looking at her
feet.
"And would you mind taking them
off for me?' she added, indicating the
rubbers with little movement of her
foot.
"The man looked surprised, as well he
might. But being a young fellow an6
quite gallant, he promptly replied:
"Certainly, miss-if you wish me-
"He stopped and she put her right fool
on stool to assist him in the operation
Then the left foot was attended to. A
small hole was visible on the point OF
the left shoe. and the white hosiery
peeped through.
"tO' she exclaimed, L forget. Have
you any ink in the store? The heel and
TIE are white, but the rest isn't. / want
you to fix it for me-
AN ink bottle was procured, and 8
paper wad soaked with ink was prepared

Ono, you de it, she urged, in pretty
authoritative way. 'Daub it well in
won't you? There, a little more neal

Now, that will do very nicely. Ever Sc

picked up the parcel containing her rub

Douglass Lincoln Story.

Senator Douglas, who served in the
Black Hawk war with President Lincoln.
used to tell good story about "Old
Abe's" military exploits. He enlisted
in cavalry company, which started off
in line spirits to engage in the daddy
tray. Arriving at a point on the prairie
about two hundred miles from the In
dian lines the party bivouacked for the
uight, picketed their horses and slept Oh
their arms. The method of picketing
their horses was that in Common use
fastening huge rope, some eighty feet
in length, to a stake firmly planted, and
then using smaller lines OF considerable
length, one end attached 10 the animals
neck and the other to the main rope
During the night the sentinel imagined
he saw the Indians and immediately
discharged his old fusee. The camp was
aroused in an instant and each sprang to
his saddle. "O!d Abe" shot out in the
darkness on his charger, until the 70 es
"hove taut," when over he went, horse
and himself, headlong. Thinking him
self csugst n an Indian ambu h, he
gathered up, mounted, and putting spurs
to his horse took the opposite shute, buI
soon brought up as before, borse anC
rider tumbling headlong. "Old Abe
got up. thinking he was surrounded, and
shouted: Gentlemen Indians, / SUR
render without a word. l have not ;
word to f.r. AL Iwant Is q la,t,r."
