 Because, in spite of the daily prophecy that Bogus must bust" soon, or quit such improvident ways, in fact he throve from the day that the blacksmith ironed the big square "sign," and all the town joined in raising the twenty-foot oak beam that bore it aloft, and could as easily have held ton of such ''signs"-so massive was it. It was well known that he had bought large bodies of ''timber" and 'prairry'' land; and my sister Elizabeth told me that she had seen tho deeds conveying ever and ever so many quarter sections to Polly Ann.

One Pair of Gloves for Two.

General Charles B. Hooker, member of Congress from the Seventh Mississippi dis trict, was one of the.heroes of the late war against the Union. He carries an empty sleeve as relic of his experiences on the field. Major Powell, the Chief of the Geo. logical Survey, was in the Union army, and he also carries an empty sleeve. General Hooker's lost arm was on his right side and Major Powell's on the left Their re- maining hands are of the same proportions, and they have mutual agreement under which they purchase gloves in common, Major Powell using all of tho s'rights" and General Hooker the "lefts."> No difficulty ever occurs between them about the selec- tion of these gloves, for they pay little at tention to the perennial changes in modes and fashions.

A ACCUSED INSECT.

How Cockroaches Are Consigned to a
 Living Grave by Wicked Fly.
 Although cockroaches abound inconven- iently at the Mauritius, it was not without pity that a writer for the New York Ledger saw them consigned, as they frequently were, to living grave by wicked looking insect much resembling a Spanish fly. It was impossible to witness his proceedings, combined with his glittering blue and green dress, without imagining the selfish demon of pantomime leading an innocent victim to perpetual entombment in some haunted cavern.
 Let the cockroach be moving ever so briskly across the wall, he no sooner catches sight of the fatal insect-not quarter of his size-than all energy leaves him, and he stands stupidly resigned. The fly then walks up to him, looks him hard in the face, and presently, putting forth some appar- atus that stands him in the place of finger and thumb, gently takes the cockroach by the nose, and leads him daintily along for foot or two. Leaving him there, he con- mences @ thorough examination of the neighborhood, beating the ground up and down like well-trained setter, and not finding wbat he, wants, returns to the cockroach and leads him on a lit tie farther, when the same process is gone through, sometimes for hours, SAASAA Chinks there are ln plenty, but they do not suit him. He has taken the measure of the victim's bulk, and means to lodge him con- modiously. Presently suitable hole is found, and the fly, moving backward, gent ly pulls the cockroach after him into his last home.
 What horrors are perpetrated in this dark recess can not be moro than sur- missed. The object, undoubtedly, is to en- gage him as wet nurse. No doubt the poor cockroach is bored in some part not vital, and eggs laid in nina purpose for which his succulent, motherly frame is peculiarly adapted. And, not improbably, during the vicarious incubation, he is supp piled with food, until the eggs with which he is impregnated, being matched, con- mence, in turn, for his services, to ssgnaw his bowels, their receptacle"
 It is in vain that, during the scene above described, we urge the cockroach to seek safety in flight. The poke of stick is disregarded; he seems dead to all hints: nay, move him to another part of the wall, he waits there with the same stolid indif- ference the return of his tormentor. Prob ably sly thrust is given him in the first meeting of the two, some "leprous distill- ment" dropped into his ear, for he has en- tirely the air of being hocused.

OBITU ARY.

From the Racine, (Wis.) Daily Journal.l
 Judge Philo Belden died at $40 a. m. Sept. 9th, at his home, No. sos Lake Avenue, of old age. Although his death was not unexpected it was nevertheless 8 shock to the community and express ions of sorrow are heard on every side.
 Judge Belden was a remarkable man in many respects, and was prominently identified with the early history of Racine county and its progress. The deceased was born in the town of Canaan, Litchfeld county, Connecticut, October 22, 1915. He was the son of Jonathan and Love Belden. He was educated in the public schools of Con- necticut. In the spring of 1887 he settled in Rochester, Racine county, and soon became prominent resident of that place. He built and carried on saw mlll in 1S4O, and 8 Touring mill in 1844. He was elected to the state legis- lature in 1852; again in 1862, also in 1865 and to the general assembly in 1870. He was elected to the senate, where he served two years. He also served as supervisor for several terms. He was prominently identified in the proposed construction of the Fox River Valley railroad; the grading of the road was completed but the work was dropped.
 The road ran through Waterford, Roch- ester, Burlington and thence south to the state line. He was appointed to the position of County Judge by Governor Rusk in 1884, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Judge Brownson, and he was afterward elected to term of four years without oppo- sition. He served up to last week when he rendered his resignation on account of failing health, and his grandson, E. B. Belden, who was elected to the position. was appointed by Governor Hoard to the une1pired term. He mar ried Miss Mary F. Belden, of LaPorte, Ind, and four children were born to them Henry w., Edward J., Albert O., and Allen H., all of whom together with his wife survive him. He was a member of the Racine County Old Settlers society. In his death Racine county loses one of its oldest pioneer and 8 man who was honored by all who knew him for his honesty and strict business integrity. Judge Belden was 8 brother of Henry Belden, of Falls Village, Conn.
 The funeral of the late Judge Belder occurred Sept l1th. from the family residence 9OS Lake avenue. A shor1 service was held at the house, conduc ted by Rev Arthur Piper, of St Luke's church. The members of the Racine bar and the county officials met at the court house at 10 o'clock and attended the services in body. The Old Settler were also present. and after the service! carried the remains to the St Pau depot, where they were placed on the train and taken to Rochester for inter ment.

FATHERS RIDE IN A SLEEPER,


 DRESSING AND EATING, BUT HE GOT
 THERE ALL THE SAME.
 The old man had just arrived at his sons house from the country.
 "Well, father" said the boy, "I hope you came through in the sleeping car, as I told you to, and had good nights rest"
 The old man smiled sickly, sarcastic smile.
 "O,yes," he said, "I had good sleep, first-rate sleep; went to bed early"
 "Did you wake up during the night?"
 "Only twicet; only went to sleep twicet."
 "Say, father!" said the young man, "you've got two great bumps on top of your forehead. What have you been doing ?"
 "Them's the two times I woke up j; passed another train both times an when I heerd the big engine whizzin' by sn' the bell -ingin' thought twas 8 fire an jumped up slam agin the ceilin'. It's lucky I was awake one time though"
 "Why, how so ?''
 "The high an mighty importer that laughed when I ast to go to my room early in the evenin' was sneakin' off with my boots"
 "Why, he was only going to shine them for you."
 70, go 'way," said the old man. "I never ast him to shine 'em! Anyway, took 'em to bed with me after that an never slep' another wink. Say, Henry, you ain't got an old pair of suspenders, have ye ?"
 "I guess I can find 8 pair for you, yes. !"
 "Busted mine tryin' to put my panta- looms on lain down. Done it, though. Got all dressed lain' fat-boots, panta- looms, coat, collar, necktie-hul busi- ness"
 "Why didn't you get out of the berth to put on your collar and coat ?''
 "Wimmin in the car. Got 8 handy place where I kin wash up, Henry 1? There was we'll O water in the car and I pumped some. but the train was goin' SO fast I couldn't stand up to the sink k. Say, Henry, what times dinner ready l? I'm so hungry I been eatin' my whis- kers."
 "Didn't you get breakfast in the din- ing car as told you to ?"
 70, yes," said the old man. co, yes, but didn't want to go it too expensive, so told the fellers I'd just take a cup of coffee an some buckwheat pancakes. |"
 "Pretty light breakfast, that's so, said Henry.
 "Yes," said the old man, eight breakfast two pancakes"
 "Well, come downstairs and we'll fix up something to eat right away. You mustn't wait for dinner"
 Enlarged me a dollar," continued the old man. "Feller, set next to me eatin' grapes an oranges an oysters an stewed chickens an billed eggs an I don't know what all. When we got back in the bedroom car told him I calcula- ted that breakfast he ct cost SIS. An then he told me breakfast was dollar anyway, whether you ct much or little. You'd oughter wrote me about that Henry"
 "Well, father, man can ride pretty comfortable nowadays after he gets used to it," said Henry, as he started to lead the old gentleman to the bathroom for wash.
 70, yes, O, yes, man can ride all right now" replied the old man, and the smile lasted until he started to wash his face from the faucets over the bath tub.-[ [Cincinnatti Commercial.
