An Esthetic Hen.

W Mr. n:a a. Soper, yard engineer on the T. =. q
hen, Sarah which has ideas of her own.
Sarah is a little gray chick of very diminutive
pattern, shading to a partridge brown about the
head, and a short time since determined to raise
a family. Looking about for a suitable place to
hatch her progeny, she espied through the win
dow of the next neighbours house, that of Mrs.
N. M. Suffrin, a handsome little tidy on a cen
t~er-table, on which stood a stuffed prairie chick
en-, on a base covered with lichens. Flying over
the lowered window, she picked the lichens off,
carefully selected a wedding bouquet, dried ana,
pressed, from a ne:sghboriRg wall ornament, and
placed it in the center, and was snugly ensconced
beneath the wing of the stuffed fowl upon the
center table when discovered. She was removed
and the wreck replaced, only to have it occur
the second and third time, ard it was not until
after a weeks persistent fight that she gave up
her chosen nest and ceased to make of herself
the brightest and prettiest ornament in the
lady's parlor.

AS we got into South Carolina we were joined
by a judge from Pittsburg. l forgot just what
court he was judge of, but he had been travelling
South for his health, and had just figured up that
he had paid out $25 in fees to walters, and was
badness that he wouldn't pay another red cent,
and we encouraged him as hard as we could.
When we went up to the hotel the landlord
gave us a big room with three beds in 1t. A big
negro brought the trunks up, and when he was
ready to go the judge called to him and began:
"Colored person, stand up! Now l want to say
to you that | shall expect prompt service with
out fees. You have brought up my trunk; that's
all right-it was your business to. / shall want
water, and may want a fire, and shall probably
ask you to 60 of errands, but If you even look
fees at me III throw you out of the window"
We were there two days, and the waiter was
v~igilant, humble and willing, but as we made
ready to depart the morning of the third, in
comes a constable with a warrant to arrest the
judge for threats of personal violence. It had
been sworn out before a justice ten miles away,
and the complainant was the negro waiter.
1t took the two of us to hold the judge Town
on his back during his first paroxysm, and when
he had cooled off a little the negro slipped into
the room and said:
white man, stand up! Now I want to say to
you that q fve-dollar bill will settle dis yer case
jist as | feel now, but if you goes to calm
names, or puliin' hair, or kickin' III stick fur $25!
Dat justice am my own brudder, an he's jist
achin' to send some white man ter Jail fur six
months!'
We sat on the Judge again for about twenty
minutes, at the end of which time he handed
over the amount and was pronounced sane.
