THEY FOUND AN HONEST MAN.

Last April John FLETCHER, farmer
Of Blooming Grove, Pa, quarreled
with his neighbor, John HOLIDAY, and
finally shot him, inAicting a severe
wound. On the following day Pfetch-
er was arrested and held to await the
action OF the grand jury on charge
of attempted manslaughter The fol-
lowing month FLETCHER escaped from
Jail in Milford, Pike county, went to
his home, where he remained two
weeks, and then returned and gave
himself up, giving as reason tor
running away that he wanted to plant
his spring corn. At the June term
Of court he was found guilty of assault
in the second degree. When asked
by Judge Seeley if he had any reason
to offer why sentence should not be
pronounced, he arose and said.
"Your Honor, | have. You see |
have 20 tons Of hay out in the field,
and it will be worth $40 a ton next
fall. wish you would let me 90
and get it in, and then | will come
back in the fall and stand any SEN
tence you may pass upon me.
This proposition struck Judge See
ley as decidedly original, but after
consulting with Associate Judges
Baker and IIornbeck he allowed him
to depart on his own recognizaL ce,
telling him to be back at the October
term to receive sentence. Promptly
on the opening of court FLETCHER was
on hand, and, Judge Seeley sentenced
him to Imprisonment in the Milford
Jail for sixty days and to pay fine
Of $3.50. His term was up last Mon
day, and then new difficulty arose.
He had only $50, and therefore could
not pay the fine FLETCHER sent for
Judge Baker and offered to give his
note for 800.
81 have no objection" said the
Judge, providing the county COM
missioners will accept it.
The commissioners were summon
ed, and, after being assured by
FLETCHER that 'there was no danger,
he would pay it if he had to work his
finger nails off," they accepted his
note without an endorser and Pfetch-
er was a free man once more.

A FABULOUS STORY STRICTLY rRrE

Last Thursday night three or four
colored men plotted to break into
the store of Mr. Davis, of Lincoln, in
this county finding it difficult to do
so without making noise enough to
be detected, they decided that Stir
ling Sanders should climb to house
top, go down the chimney and after
getting in himself he could unbar a
door or window and let the others
in. Stirling went down headfore-
most and reached a point in the
chimney where he could 90 no fur
Their, and, in fact, could neither go
up nor down. In that condition he
was left by his accomplices. 1t is
the custem of the clerk in that house
to start his fire by first putting kero-
sene oil ON the fuel and then putting
match to it. On Friday morning
he started his fire in that way, and
the fire and smoke and flames went
up into the negro's face. He scream
ed at the top of his voice but was not
heard for some time ; and in the SUI
per-human exertions of the terrible
moment he succeeded in turning in
the chimney and got his head up and
his feet down, and thus saved his life
but got his feet also badly burnt.
He finally succeeded in making him
self heard, and after his locality was
ascertained the fire was extinguish-
ed, and he was taken out by rope
at the top of the chimney, and was
brought to town ana lodged in jail.
He is badly burnt. This is his only
story as to how it occurred. We
saw and conyersed with the poor boy
as he went to jail. We never saw
more pitiable object in appearance.
We suppose him to be about 20 years
old. He says that he went into the
chimney at II at night and was taken
out at Z in the morning. He was in
the funnel of the chimney seven
hours. Other darkies can do as they
please, but Sanders don't think that
he will ever try it that way again.
He would advise all men that going
down the funnel ola chimney head
foremost is not good way to enter
store at midnight, and he thinks that
his comrades treated him rather bad
ly. We agree with Sanders about
this. = TdLIddega Mountain Home.

The New York Mail and Express
says: How few Northern men real
ize, for instance, that in the first six
months of last year S70,000,0OO were
expended in the erection and extern
sion of Southern factories ? Yet this
is the undoubted, verified, marvellous
fact. How few in this region are
prepared to learn that the accessible
values of the South have increased
s640, 100000 in the past four years.
Yet these are trustworthy figures.
How many of our people dreamed
that the South had 307 cotton facto-
ries, with 900, 00G new spindIes ? How
many knew that in Alabama, Geor-
gia, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee.
and West Virginia, the output of coal
was increased from 100000 tons in
1879 to 100000 tons in 1880? How
many knew that in Alabama, Geor.
gia, Tennessee, Virginia and West
Virginia the output of iron ore rose
from 10000 tons in 1870 to $1,000
tons in 1880?

A CLEVER GAMBLER.

A story about Charlie Ransom, the
recently deceased New York gam
bier; about u years ago young
fellow came down from Litchfeld,
Conn, with $4,000 in his pocket. 1t
was his entire fortune, and with it he
was going to buy dairy farm out in
Orange county, and then get mar
ried to a girl he left behind him in
Litchfeld. The first hight he was in
the city he happened to stumble into
Charles house. The next morning
he came out with just enough to buy
his ticket back to Litchfeld. He
bought it, went back, saw his girl,
told her the story, and then babe her
goodbye. He was going, he said, to
California, and would never return
until he got together again the So
600. The girl was one of those wo-
men who will do anything for men
they love. She told him to wait
there in Litchfeld for two days be-
fore starting for California. Then
she put on her cloak and came on
alone here to New York and went
straight to Ransom. In few quiet
words told him the story. Charles
shook her hand, said he wouldn't part
her from her lover tor the world, ask
ed how much had been lost, took
$4,000 out of the safe and gave it to
her, together with a valuable dia-
mond pin to fasten the baby's bon
net-strings together. She blushed
and went back home. They got mar
ried, bought farm, and haven't been
in the city since but the happy hus-
band always sent brace of big tur-
key to Charlie every Christmas and
Thanksgiving"

If the bills now before Congress
granting pensions should become
laws, the country might as well go
into bankruptcy. Even that most
radical of Radical sheets, the Phila-
delphia Press, grows tired of the pen
sion business, as witness: owe do
not believe that the able bodied men
who fought to put down the rebellion
want to be billeted on Uncle Sam as
pensioners for the rest of their lives.
The pressure for more pensions,
which.is reflected in the bills offered
IN every Congress more than
In the present one comes not from
soldiers, but from the politicians,
who think that there is no surer way
OF winning the hearts and votes of
the soldier element than by catering
to their supposed appetite for pen
sions." Bills are now on the lists to
pension those who served only sixty
days and the widows and children of
such of that class as have died.

that the widow of the ex-king Ferdi-

Boston to live. Years ago there was
in Boston a Miss lIensler, who was
noted for her beauty and musical tai

met King Ferdinand, who was then
fifty years old. The King took fan

and took his wife to beautiful pal

until Ferdinand's death. The ex-
