Too Previous.

81 went home the other day." said an
old citizen the other day, as he headed
for the police court, "and [ found a man
vanishing my front door. 1, of course,
asked him who sent him up, and he then
claimed to have made n mistake in the
house. He had one of the panels var
nished, and the contrast between the
new and the old was very glaring. How
ever, knowing it to be an old trick, [
ordered him off the premises, and would
not let him finish the door. A day or
two passed, and my wife telephoned to a
house painter to come up and finish the
job. He had just got to work when |
got home, and what did L do but take
take him by the neck and heels and
throw him over the fence. Then, as he
gave me some back talk [ jumped over
the fence and cuffed his ears, supposing,
of course, that he was the same old
fraud. Last night [ had a warrant
served on me from the police court, for
assault and battery, and I'm just going
up there"
"To explain the case?"
"And pay about $40 fine, [ suppose.
That's what an eminent old citizen gets
for being too previous. Detroit Free

She Wanted the Earth.

One of the girls in fashionable society
in New York made up her mind to get
married the other day, says the Press,
and after confiding her intention to her
father, she said: "What do you intend
to do for me?" The father was a
wealthy man, and thought he was show
ing a liberal spirit when he answered.:
"Well, [ will give you 800, 900 to buy a
house and $25, 900 to furnish it with"
'sAnd what will you give me to live on?"
the young lady demanded, with a dissat-
isfied look on her face. ooh, [ will allow
you the interest on another 800, 900"
replied her father. "But my chef will
cost at least 81, 200 n year. How do you
think [ can possibly manage with SO lit
tle?" The father looked slightly
grieved, but only said: THAT must do
while L am living; you will probably
have more when L am gone" The
young man who was interested in hear
ing the result of this conversation be-
tween father and daughter said when he
heard it: "He might at least give me
her two millions" The marriage did
not take p1opa

D.rkey Dream. OF Treasure.

A negro servant of a friend of mine,
says the gossip of the Philadelphia News,
dreampt one night that if he should
visit a certain spot at his home in old
Virginia he would find a hidden treas
ure. The place of his dream was we'll
known to him, an old tree on a hillside.
So impressed was he that he obtained
leave from his master to visit the spot
and search for the treasure, arriving at
tie spot close to the hour of midnight
one moonlight night. When the near
by village clock was on the stroke OF 12,
lie marked the shadow cast upon the
ground by a dead limb of the old tree
and commenced to dig. In a short
time his spade came in contact with
some substance which it refused to pen
citrate. Carefully scraping away the
earth he disclosed to view a rusty old
iron box. Lifting it from the ground
with some difficulty, on account of its
weight, he carried it to his home, feel
ing sure that his dream had been full
filed. Visions of great wealth and III
merous trifes dear to the negro that
could be purchased for the same passed
quickly through his brain. Imagine his
surprise and disappointment when, up
on opening the box, he found that it
contained rusty old nails. His dream
had indeed been verified, but not in the
way he expected.

A Fish Story.
From the Bangor Commercial.

SAS 1872
An ardent sportsman OF Bangor was
cutting through the ice on the pond
preparatory to a days sport, using
a chisel with a handle like a shovel,
which by accident slipped from his
grasp and disappeared in about six
fathoms of water. He mourned his
loss, for it meant harder work to-
morrow to get through the ice with
out it. Nothing daunted, heprepared
his line and placed on the hook a
plump live sinner and returned to
camp to relate his misfortune. Try
ing his line shortly after, his first I'M
preston was that he had hooked a
%Chinaman, SO hard did it pull. but
when he had landed his catch imagine
his surprise to find that he not only
had a fine three-pound trout, but also
the lost chisel. The blade had stuck
upright in the mud, the sinner had
swum through the hole in the handle,
the trout seized him and wound him.

capture possible, providing the line
held as 1t did.

aErtendor Young Wen.

DR.. John H. Vincent, just elected a
bishop of the Methodist church, is a
man with an enormous faculty for ac-
quiring popularity in a perfectly legiti-
mate manner He is especially beloved
by the young people, among whom he
has been thrown by his work at the
head of the Sunday school department
of the church. He is one of the best
''sympathszers" with the young folks
that has ever been conspicuous i'll re-
ligious work. He has an especial fond
ness for taking an ardent interest in
young men just starting ont in life, and
will make occasion to offer them good
advice and encouragement in so evil
IDENTIFY sincere and SO unpretentious and
kindly a manner that there can be no
suspicion of oficiousness about it.
Afterward he keeps an eye upon the
young men, and years a%fterward, when
probably the doctors interest, and very
likely his advice as well, have been for
gotten, he will be heard from in con-
gratulations on some progressive step
or in more substantial assistance in a
different situatiOn.
