These Apaches were only captured

He Was Absent Minded.

An absent. minded Congressman once
lost the yEte of an entire family by his
carelessneSs. lie had way of saying
Il would be glad to have you do so,
and one day constituent, with his
family, p his respect. The Congress
man was hsy, and after some talk the
visitor SAID: 'We'll remain in the city
several days L should be glad to have
you do so,' replied the member of Con-
gress as he fumbled pile of papers on
his desk. I'VE will come in and see
you every now and then,' ehirped the
visitors wife. Il should be very glad
to have you do s0,' said the Congress
man. And bring around our little
boy you haven't SEEM suggested the
husband. Il should be glad to have you
do so,' still said the Congressman.
Then they rose. well, Mr.. Blank
said the visitor extending his hand. I'VE
must'teu you goodbye and 60 back to
the hotel, Il should he very glad to
have you do-so, said the Congressman,
and he wondered for a week what made
his visitors leave so abruptly.

Too Much Imagination.

A recent story in Tue Chicago Ledger
reminds correspondent Of the Second
Vermont VOLUNTEERS of the following
Our officers had givenus strict orders
against, foragh,g. Colonel Randall and
CaptliNhhing, of Company III, were
especially severe. In spite of orders
the boys used to pick up young pigs, a.
bundant in that yioinity, and work
them up into "possum stews." The
Captain ehanced 10 discover that the
boys gspe Of which their stews were
made Nas contrsbanl, and he at once
confscated a fine stew ard had the own
ers arrestee.
Now the Captain was great lover of
poker, and he and his setregarded them
. selves with poker and the soldiers stew.
The boys resolved to get even. In the
natural order this event happened twice.
The second time it was essentially va.
ried, as follows:
Four puppies had been procured.
Three Of them were k lied, their bodies
buried and heads left outside just back
Of the tent. After the officers set had
got the well seasoned stew disposed of,
the little puppy remaining alive was
left ut the officers tent, and began to
whine. They investigated the whining
at once.and found the little fellow with
a card ie Iris neck, upon which was in
scribefSA' You have eaten my three
brothers; now eat me. (Signed)
JEFF DAVIS.
In the expressive language of the col
ored gentleman, there was commotion
in that caWp. Investigation followed,
the puppies heads were discovered
and-and we draw veil over the scene
that followed.
A puppy's whine, bark, or even a
howl was altogether, too suggestive for
long time after. The boys stews
were not confiscated any more.
The disagreeable results of the affair
were entirely the effects of the imagin-
alton, as the stew which the officers
na4cated was entirely composed Of
good chickens and pigs.

Maine campaign, his hippOdTOming In
pennsylvania, and the large Republican
maJ0rltles In those two States, and
especially In Pennsylvania, point un-
mlstakably to Blaine as the Republican
standard bearer for 1883. Had the Re-
publican State ticket Ia Pennsylvania

closely drawn between Cleveland and
Blaine, could not poll ten thousand
votes In New York city, and very few
more In the State. When the record OF

Zealand has proved by actual experiment
that the dust thrown out during the recent
volcanic eruptions is of highly fertilizng
kind. He obtained samples of the dust from
three different places, and sowed quantity
of clover and grass seeds in each. The soil
was kept moistened with distilled water so
that no manurial elements might be impaired
by the water used In all cases the growth
was almost as vigorous as in rich volcanic
soil. The rapid growth OF the plants and
their color show that the dust Is a benefit to
the soil on which it has fallen. = Cleveland

Now that we are to have something that

One of the most recent promotions is that of
