HAD GONE AFTER WATER.

Greensboro (Ga.) sun.
A story is told on Sunday school
teacher in certain backwoods settle
ment in a neighbOring county which is
worth publishing. She had new class
of young scholars, the parents of whom
had neglected to give them any instruc-
ton in their cateehiSm whatever. Go
ing TO the first boy in,the class, she asked
him who made him. He did not know.
She told him God and urged him to re-
member it. Of the next boy she asked
who was the oldest man. He did not
know, and the teacher told him Meth
uselah. So she went on down the class,
asking each a question and giving them
the answer.
While she was thus engaged the first
)Oy went to the bucket after some
water The teacher returned to the
head of the class. and not knowing that
any one was absent she asked the first
boy who made him.
Without hesitation the boy quickly
replied, ''Methuselah."
No" exclaimed the teacher in as
constituent, "GOd made your'
No he didn't" persisted the urchin.
with confidence, 1.-THE boy God made is
gone after water" The teacher gave
up the class.

STRANGE SNAKE STORY.
A Flock OF Reptiles in q New
and Useful Role.

In Cen trail Dakota there exists one OF
Nature strangest freaks in the shape
of flock of twenty snakes trained to a
remarkable degree of proficiency. At the
blast of a whistle the snakes assemble
on the banks of the creek. The leader
dashes into the water of the creek, leay-
ing only the extremity OF its tail on the
bank. Another snake Immediately
grasps the end of the leaders, tail in his
Jaws, q third takes hold of the second
snakes tail in similar manner, and so
on, extending to the water troughs in
the cattle yards, three hundred feet
away. The leading snake begins to
swallow or pump the water OF the creek
which passes through the long line of
snakes as it would through a hose, and
fells in heavy stream into the trough.
The agriculturist who owns them told
of an extraordinary circumstance which
occurred a short time ago. While work
ing in field near his home he observed
flames issuing from the roof of his barn.
In despair he gazed on the work of des~
truction; suddenly he heard loud rust
ling in the grass, whence issued his
herd of snakes. The leader hurled him
self into the creek, the rest instantly
adjusting themselves, heads and tails.
from the creek to the burning building,
The last snake, standing on it's head,
waved its long, flexible body, from the
tail OF which issued stream of water
that was thrown with terrific force on
the burning building. Within fifteen
minutes the last spark was out.

GEN. BUTLER STOOD TREAT,
Admiral Farragut Warned Him,
But He Risked the Con-
sequences.

Somebody was talking about treating
in the Office of the Brooklyn elevated
the other day, and it reminded tn,
General Manager, Colonel Frederick
Martin, of small story. The Colone
was useful during the war on Genera
Buffers staff, and his tale was of him.
That reminds me, he said, 20
one time when midshipinan and
were following respectfully the heal.
OF General Butler and Admiral Farra-
gut on the Beach of Santa Rosa Bay
| We'd been down to Pensacola and were
bound for the Odd Hartford, which lay
ia the offing.
well, we walked along until We
came to the Admlral's gig. and, climb
lng In. were pulled to the ship. Just a
moment before we reached her-it was
az almighty hot day-the General said
to Farragut:
Admiral, I'd just like to give the
crew drop of something good. It's
warm, this is long pull, and 1t wont
do them anv harm.
AT that the old gentleman fdgeted a
little and SAID: Now, General, really.
cont know about it. The regulations
are very strict. very strict. and really ,
1t wouldn't do for me 10 lend counte-
nance to such thing.
Yes. [ know about the regulations, ,
said Bntler persuasi, ely, but It's warm,
and it'll do them good
The Admirals eye twinkled little,
and we were almost at the ship. then
he said softly: / shall go over the side
and below to my cabin at once, General.
Ot course, l cannot be responsible for
what happens in my absence. Only re-
member, | have warned you. You
know the consequences.
With that he skipped up the ladder
and when he got out of sight tbs Gen
era! pulled a quart bottle of excellent
brandy from his grip. kept and carried
for emergencies, and with it stemless,

glass. 1t didn't hold more than a
thimbleful.
well, he handed the glass end bot
tie to the stroke. big, hairy-mouthed
tar. and it was funny to see him stare
at the little thing. He filed it up,
pitched it into his mouth, then paused
for effect. Apparently there wasn't
any, for, holding up the glass and re-
garding it contemptuousIy. he ex
claimed oh: 10 Neptune with it, and
chucked it overheard. Then he poked
the bottle-neck among his whiskers
and looked happy.
The rest of the men-eigh: or fen of
them did likewise. The Generals
lace fell as he saw the show, and with
reason. He had counted on saving of
one-half for the emergencies. and the
liquor was not stuff to be poured down
that way. II. did not say a word,
though, but think he repented.
what I'D Farragut say ? Oh nothing.

RAISING THE WIND"
Why a Deserted YOnng Man En-
cOuraged His Sisters Admirer.

L have discovered new ay to "raise
the wind" and as it did not cost me q
cent. l will give it to my readers.
There is young and handsome Cir
who lives near my house, that has a
great deal of attention paid her by
young men But I noticed that til
same fellow never went with her more
than two or three weeks at the most.
After noticing this for a long time,
had my curiosity terribly worked up,
ard determined TO find out the reason
for this sudden dropping off.
Pretty soon after making this resolve,
l saw my young friend, Jim" B.,
with the aforesaid young lady. Now,
thinks /, if Jim" drops off like the rest
of the boys, will find out the cause of
it. Jim" stuck it out for three full
weeks. and then missed him. Invent
to see him, and asked him if he knew
Miss J.
Yes"
Handsome girl, isn't she?''
Yes"
"how long have you known herr"
"a bout three weeks"
"How did you become acquainted with
herr"
introduced by her brother"
why is it that you don't visit her
any more?"
Too expensive"
What do you mean?"
Just what cay; she is very nice
girl, and [ like her very much, but |
can't afford to pay twenty dollars a
week for the pleasure of visiting
her."
Explain yourself; how could it cost
you twenty dollars week."
We'll, that is just exactly what it did
cost me for the three weeks that I
visited her. You see this is the way 1t
was done. Her brother is a member of
my club. He invited me to go home
with him one day, introduced me to the
gIrl-who, by the way is as smart as
she is handsome, became smitten;
was asked to call again. The third time
/ went to the house the brother came
into the parlor. while was waiting for
the girl, and asked me if l would loan
him twenty dollars for few days.
"Of course / did so. Well, to make a
long matter short, he did the same
thing three times; then I concluded to
stop visiting the house. Since then [
have found out that am not the only
victim"
do you suppose the girl is aware of
the actions of her hrother?"
well, that is just what l have been
thinking of, and have about con-
cluded that she is, and that they divide |
the money that he borrows I"
"Well, it is quite novel way of get
ting money without working for it. |
ism It it ?''-Washington Republic.

This Mornlnx's Alarm.

The alarm of fire sounded at 1880 this
morning for the Second ward, was caused
by rather threatening blaze at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Ben Carlton on Eleventh
street near Fourth avenue. The blaze
originated from a defective due, which
was in the second story and roof and WAS
exting1ished before the arrival of the fire
department, without extensive loss, the
use of water from the mains and the dis

being happily avoided. The usual exhi

cred around one house and pulled the bell
rope for all they were worth, but there
was long delay before a key could be
obtained with which to open the door.
This is frequently the case and generally
the doors are kicked or battered open.
This calling out the men all over the city
at all hours OF the day and night is
great and often unnecessary hardship
upon the men themselves, and it is cer-
tainly the duty of the city to relieve them
of it by establishing a we'll equipped paid
