who is UP with the times
for he knows that the
people cannot pay cash
down for the furniture
and other things which
are needed to make home
comfortable and conve-

makes it possible for the
poor man to procure his
things, and pay for them

SAVED by HIS TOES,
Unpleasant Experience of Manatee
Merchant on a Trip North.
From. The 7ampa (Fla.l Tri6une.

From the I01aDd (Ftd.) Tribune.
Capt. John W. Harlee, of Manatee, had
a peculiar experience on his recent trip
North. He had gone to Little Rock, NC,
to visit his young sons, who are at school
there. By way of giving the boys a treat
he took them on an excursion trip to Will
mington, n. c., and thence to SmithvilIe
and back. The fret night they were in
Wilmington, as Capt. Harlee was walk
ing with a friend named McRAe, a we'll
known citizen there, they were accosted
by detective and Capt. Harlee was at
once accused OF being Sam. b. Roberts, a
telegraph operator and manager OF the
Pacific Mutual Telegraph Company at
Kansas City, who is fugitive from JUS
tice. accused of embeZzlemelt, and for
whose capture reward OF $3.50 is offered
by the American Surety Company of
New York.
The ely cop" took Capt. Harlee by the
arm and under bright gas light con-
fronted him with the reward circular,
where there was portrait OF the alb
sconding man, which resembled Capt.
Harlee as much as an alligator resembles
a knocking bird. But the description,
though describing Roberts as being feet
7 Inches high, while Capt. Harlee Is a
slx-footer, also described him as having a
right stiff leg, in which the resem blance
could not be denied This satisfied the
detective, who led his captive to a police
officer. The latter appears 10 have been
an intelligent man, and at once released
Capt. Harlee. Afterwards Mr.. McRae
went before the Mayor OF Wilmington and
made affidavit as to Capt. Hairless iden-
tity and mis- personal knowledge Of his
good standing in social and commercial
circles. This was supposed to be the end
OF the matter, but events proved the con-
trary.
Next day, just after landing from the
steamer from Smthville, Capt. Har1ee
was arrested again. He protested against
the lndignity; called attention 20 the
movement tened affidavit; vowed that be

The Goats Got the Water.

From the 4 niericus (Ga.l ReDu6Eicdn.
The Primitive Baptists had a three
days meeting at Harmony church, IN
Sumter county, last week. Peace, har-
mony and "good will to all men" pre-
vailed for a season. The spirit OF God
seemed to linger with some; but old Sa-
taD-not, as typicslly pictured, a snake,
but devilish goat-destroyed the Eden
like pleasure of some. The last day had
come for the meeting. Dinner was over,
when lady requested colOred boy to
| get bucket of water. Ebony complied,
| put the bucket of water convenient, and
| went to learn the story OF David and
| Uriah. All through the services a Sir
| William Goat had pensively watched the
| proceedings of the meeting, and seemed
to enjoy them. Seeing the bucket, he
| poked his nose and beard into Ii and took
a long draught, then turning to the lady,
winked his off eye and seemed to say:
t"We're having devilish good time; let's
have a romp." "Shool you old goatp'
| and she ran him with a stick, and the
| goat ''shooed." While this episode was
| transpiring a thirsty gentleman stepped
up to the bucket and drank some OF the
water, knowing nothing of the goat hav.
ing used 1t. The lady did not see him, but
said: "Ebony, bring me another bucket
OF water; this old goat has drank from
this one" The man heard her and his
wrath was terrible, but he kept his jaw,
for a thirsty preacher approached the
bucket for drink, but the woman said,
NAY, for the sheep drink not with the
goat" and explained. The wrathful man,
knowing that he was sinner, thought
| himself alluded to, and sought his wife
and left. He told his wrongs to his bosom
partner, and mentally vowed IL he was a
goat, that was better than such sheep. A
feeling OF antipsthy toward the Baptists
was taking root in his heart, when his
wife met the lady who "shooed" the goat
and wanted to know why she called her
husband goat Explanations followed
The wife is satisfied, but the butting pro-
clivities of that man are reaching out toI
| something to butt,

match. Saturday John F. Taylor. OF
GAINESVILLE, and the groom's father, re-
ceiVed letter from his son saying that
ne would reach there with his intended
sunday morning at O'Clock, and to have
minister awaiting them. The services
Oh Rev. Robert j. Wiliingham were ac-
cordlngly bespoken. But the brides pa
rents bad gathered an inkling of the con-
templated elopement, and Mr.. Taylor de-
clded to steal his betrothed from the pa
rental mansion in the night instead of fol-
lowing out his original plan. He accord
lngly drove close to Mr.. Woodward's
house Saturday night at II O'Clock, and
then proceeded ON foot to apprise Miss
Matte of his visit. He stuck
his head cautiously over the
back yard fence with this
end in view, when there sat one OF her
stalwart brothers on a log with a shotgun
in hand, vigorously guarding his sister.
Mr.. Taylor very rapidly withdrew and
proceeded to notify his inamorata from
different route. She was awaiting him,
and together they started for BarDesvllle.
They arrived at 2:30 O'Clock a. m. and
sent hastily for Squire 81. T. Jennings,
who pronounced them man and wife just
as the brides father and his three sons,
including the stalwart one with the shot
gun, drove up and demanded Matte. She
told them that she was now Mrs. Taylor,
whereupon they babe her goodbye and
started for home. Mr.. Taylor is young
man ~ years of age and engaged IN a
prosperous business at McKibbon, Butts
county, and Miss Woodward is II years
old aud one of the bellies of the neighbor-
mood,

graphy; assured the officer that he WAS
no emheZZler, but a merchant OF Mana
tee. Fla, but all in vain. He was dragged
before the Mayor, E. d. Hall, and there
compelled to strip. In the descriptions OF
Roberts, the embezzler, 1t was mentioned
that the latter had lost the toes of the
right foot. Capt. Harlee showed up ten
as handsome toes as are usually worn by
man. The Mayor put on his spectacles
and counted the toes carefully, calling In
an officer to keep tally as he counted.
Again and again were the toes counted,
but in spite of all that could be done they
would persist In footing up ten, and at
length, after much veXation and long
questioning, the Wilmington Dogberry
gave up the case with sigh and ordered
the final release of Capt. Harlee, who
came near missing bis train and losing
bis limited ticket. This is probably the
hrst case on record where man has been
saved by his toes. The next step will
probably he to make some one smart for
their stupidity. An action for damages
for false imprisonment will most likely
be the resultant the Captains toes ought
to be awarded $1,000 apiece for the good
work they have done.

THE FIRST DAY OF LENT.

Ash Wednesday--HSVv 10 Is Deter
mined i'm Church Calendars.
To-day is Ash Wednesday and the be-
ginning of Lent according to the church
calendar. This period of forty days, OBJ
served by the Catholic and Episcopal
churches, is movable and depends upon the
date of Easter Sunday. The custom of
observing Lent is obtained from the
Jews and according TO them Easter
day was the 14th day Of the lunar
month which either fell on, or next
followed the veTnal equinox. But because
the first day of the week was ChriSt's res
direction Christian churches celebrated
Easter, and different factions of the old
church quarreled over the method of fixing
Easter for over three hundred years, until
ii was finally settled by the council of Nice
In 325 as follows: Easter day must be on
the first Sunday after the full moon. which
happens upon or next after March 21-the
day of the vernal equinoX-and If the
full moon happen on a Sunday Easter
day is the Sunday after. By this
arrangement Easter may occur as early as
Mach %, or as late as April %, and this
year it is the latter date, the very latest
possible. The March moon is full March
49, and this is before the usual equinox,
and consequently the next full moon must
govern Easter. This occurs April Is, on
Sunday, and hence Easter day is on the
following Sunday. During Lent social
amusements are prohibited by the churches
alluded TO above, aud it is a general season
of fasting and prayer.

Documents as tO the Good Charac-
ter of Hon. w. NJ. Campbell.

ter of Hon. w. NJ. Campbell.
Hon. p. H. Kelly, on his way to Wash
ihgton, showed Chicago News reporter
the charges preferred against Mr.. Camp
bell, the recently appointed marshal. These
have been published in the GLOBE, namely
that Mr. Campbell was lobbyist for the
Jim Hip system, and that his connection
with the MankatO, Austin " ST. Cloud
Railway company had not been square.
Mr.. Kelly also gave ont to the News re-
porter that he had in reply to these accusa-
lions letters that would satisfy Mr..
Edmunds or any other intelligent
man that Mr.. Campbelrs record was clean,
and his conduct above reproach. Mr..
Kelly took with him evidence from Gov. l..
+. Hubbard, ex-GOv. c. K. Davis who
seconded Blaine's nomination at Chicago;
State Auditor w. w. Braden, David Day,
postmaster at st. Paul; State Senator Il.
b. Langdon, who championed Senator Ed
munds in the Chicago convention; State
Senator 5. G.. COmstock, j. IL. Baker, j.
w. Bishop, and Senators ID. L. Sabin and
S. j. Il. Mcmillan. Lieut-Gov. G. A.
Gilman wrote that he had been i'm the
legislature several times with Campbell and
knew him to be honest and incorruptible.
]. III. Howard and w. Ii. Greenleaf. state
senator, political opponents OF Campbell,
made affidavit that they had never known
or had reason to suspect anything affecting
his integrity, and believed him incapable of
attempting to influence legislation in a cor
rupt way, and as a public man he was
above Teproach.
1t will be remembered that at the last
session of the legislature commission was
appointed TO investigate the affairs of the
Austin. Mankato 81 st. Cloud railroad and
after hearing statements from all sides,
submitted o report in which they eXOner-
ated the directors of the road from any uu-
fair or unjust dealings in their transactions
with the construction company. The COM
mission showed that no bonuses had been
contributed by the towns along the pro-
posed lines, and that when the directors
who turned over the stock to the construc-
ton company for $40, 900 they did so in
good faith, believing that the road would
be built. In the same report was
a communication from Gen. Bishop
in which he stated that S., had been
expended under his direction in the survey
and definite location of line for the road.
and that the actual building of the road had
been delayed by the difficulty of procuring
means in the depressed financial condition
of the past year.
Mr.. Kelly will present these documents
to the judiciary committee, and expressed
himself as confident that Mr.. Campbell will
be confirmed at once.
