Where He Drew the Line.

Ex-Governor Curtin on the stump:
When was in Washington the first year
OF my congressional life, found myself
sitting along side of man l didn't know.
1 turned to him and said: whats your
name?"
Said he: "My names Allen, and I'm
from Mississippi. I know who you are
well enough; you are Governor Curtin,
of Pennsylvania, the great tariff state .
"Well," said Mr.. Curtin, "Allen, as we
are going to sit together, l guess we
might as we'll be friends" and, said the
speaker, we are friends to this day."
Speaking of tariff, though" said Mr..
we don't know anything about it, and the
more think about it, and the more [ read
about it, the less l know about it and the
more confused [ get, and 1 always feel
like kicking man who talks to me about
it. It reminds me of a man down in our
section who was arrested for assault and
battery, and who was relating his story
to the judge.
"a traveller on horseback rode up one
evening to this mans house and asked
for supper, horse feed and lodging, all
of which were cheerfully accorded with
true southern hospitality. After supper
the stranger insulted the mans wife, and
Judge, stood that because he was my
guest. Then he wanted to kiss my
daughter and chased her out in the kitch
en- and back again, and Judge, I stood
that because he was under my roof and
had eaten salt at my table.
''Ihen he ran out into the yard and
heaved stone through the window, and
Judge, I stood that because I was deter
mined to be hospitable. But / went out
to the fellow and says to him: "Now,
see here old fellow, I've given you your
supper and fed your horse, and in return
you've insulted my wife, chased my
daughter, and heaved stone through
my window, but I'll overlook all that be-
cause you are my guest, if you'll only
come into the house, behave yourself and
go to bed. Then I'll give you good
breakfast and send you off rejoicing"
Sand, by thunder Judge, what do You
think he did then? Why, as sure as
you're alive he put his fingers into my
buttonhole and wanted to dicuss the tar
if with me, and then, d-n him, hit
him."

A Brokcn Shoulder.

Mr.. E. l.. Gay, of Alameda, Lane coun.
ty, was Wednesday caller. On being
enquired of as to why his right arm was
in a sling, he explained thus:
A few days before, he was hauling stock
feed on his ranch. In driving over a
manure pile in his stock yard, the jolting
caused the wagon seat fasteners to be
loosed from the side of the bed, and he
and the seat were plunged from the
wagon in sufficient haste to break Mr..
Gays shoulder bone. He has spent his
share of time on the tented field, and new
er backs out for trifles. Otherwise, he
perhaps would not have been up here in
the blizzard with such an affection as
that broken shoulder.
