A sensational story is going the
rounds which must soon become pub
lie property. A young gentleman in
love with two different girls recently
became very i'll, and both ladies felt it
their duty to take care of him. as they
were engaged to marry him. They met
at his bedside, for the first time, and
while they were glowering at each 9th
er, the man thought out a plan of ac-
tion-he would pretend to be out of
his head. and put off the dreaded ex-
PLANTATION. So he raved and talked
over vain things, and the ladies took
the greatest care of him, each one be-
lievlng that he would indicate her
when he recovered his head. But he
did not dare te recover his senses. he
began raving on Sunday, and has been
att ever since, although he is not out
of his head. and is very much better.
He don't know what TO do, for both
girls watch him night and day, and he
cannot get word to his frieLds. If he
could induce the girls TO go to sleep at
the same time, or leave him together,
he would pack few of his things and
run away, but they pay him so much
attention that escape is impossible.
The explosion is bound to come in a
few days, for he is getting hungry, and
eating entirely too much for man out
of his head; his appetite will finally
give him away.-Atehison Globe.

PRIVATE DALzELL did great deal
OF bowling before Tanner was boun-
ced, and threatened to take the scalp
of any man who would touch a hair of
his head. Since Tanner walked the
plank, nothing has been heard from the
clustering and scalp-raising private.
Is he going to let his threats of vio-
lence against the administration fall
into innOcuous desuetude?

THE cold and disrespectful way in
which Corporal Tanner referred to the

troduced in large numbers, Snding
employment chiefly in the harems

blockades have, practically cut off

ct the slaves now imported are
Gialla and Abyssinian girls, who
