HOW THE GAME ENDED.

HOW THE GAME ENDED. Mir. Quest entered tho house by side door, and, having taken off his hat and coat, went into the drawing room. He had still half an hour to spare before starting to catch the train.
 "Well," said Belle, looking up, "why are you so pales"
 "1 have had trying day." he answered.
 "What have you been doings' Nothing in particular" Reading the Bible see" ''How do you know that2" she asked, color ing little for she had thrown a newspaper over the book when she heard him coming in. "Yes, l have been reading the Bible Don't you know that when everything else E in life has failed them women generally take to religion" "Or drink" he put in. "Have you seen
 Mr. Cossey lately2' ''No. Why do you ask that? I thought
 that we had agreed to drop that subject" As matter of fact, it had not been alluded
 to since Edward left the house "You know that Miss de Ia Molle will not marry him after all3' 'Yes, I know. She will not marry him be- | cause you forced him to give up the mort gages." "You ought to be much obliged to me. Are you not pleaseds' 'No. no longer care about anything I | am tired of passion, and sin, and failure l care for nothing any more." Ut seems that we have both reached the | same goal, but by different roads," "Youp she answered, looking up; Eat any | rate you are not tired of money, or you would not do what you have done to get it.''

 Perhaps there arc excuses to be made for

SOME RARE OLD BONDS,

They Were Yellow From Age, But Proved
to BE Worth @7o, 900 in Gold.
1t was while Judge Folger was Secre-
tary (said an old Treasury Officially One
morning an old man came in to me who
was from a New England State. He
said that about twenty years ago he
found some old stocks or bonds among
the papers of an uncle mentioning his
name); he had been man of National
reputation for ability, and had COM
Portable fortune for those days-that is
from 1880 to 1840-and he had come to
the United States Treasury to find out if
they were worth any thing, as they
seemed to be United States bonds. I
looked at them. They were ten of tho
''old debt" bonds, and were indeed curl
osities. They were old and yellow from
age, but were worth, principal and in
terest, in gold $4,000, for there were
ten years interest due on them. You
can imagine the old mans amazement
when l told him this. "Why, would
gladly have taken IS, 900 for them," said
he, ''and / offered them to Boston
banker for less than that, but he rather
superciliously and contemptuously de-
clined to buy them at any figure" I
took the old man in to see Judge Folger,
who was very much interested in the
matter when explained it to him. He
had never seen any of the cold loan"
securities, and after these were paid
and cancelled believe he directed that
one of them be framed and preserved.
Well, in less than half an hours time
the old New-Englander walked out of
the building with check in his pocket
on the New York Sub-Treasury for $7O,-
600 in gold. How that s'smart'' Boston
banker must have cursed his own ignor-
ance and stupidity when he learned
what he had thrown away."-St. Louis

One of the most wonderful of fishes
is the one bearing the name of chiasmo-
don niger, or the great swallower. Tho
body is elongated, of nearly uniform
thickness most of the length of the fish.
The jaws are very long and fitted with
sharp teeth, some of which seem to be
reversible. The manner of feeding is
to grasp fish by the tail and proceed to
climb over it with its jaws. AS the cap
tive is taken in the stomach and integu-
ment stretch out, and the distended belly
appears as a great bag. The fish will
swallow another one six or twelve times
his own size. This rapacity proves his
own destruction sometimes, as the gas
formed by the process of digestion makes
. balloon of his stomach that brings the
dsh to the surface.

suggestions for Appropriations for
several towns.

HARRISBURG, July Z Joseph s.
Edwards, a member OF the State
Board of Health who was sent out
by Governor Beaver to investigate
the sanitary condition of the flooded
towns in the Susquehanna region,
has sent In his report He suggests
that to give Jersey Shore $4,000;
Tioga, $4,000, and Lawrenceville,
s 900 for the purpose of improving
the sanitary condition, would be a
wise move.
He says the condition of the dug
wells in Jersey Shore is very bad
and that they are practically pollu-
ted in the most foul manner. Tioga
he found to be in a worse condition
than Jersey Shore, and Lawrence
vile he found to be equally as bad
as far as the purity of the cellars
and wells were concerned.
He advocates the abandonment of
the polluted wells and the driving of
new wells and the thorough cleaning
up of the towns in order to avert an
epidemic.

would include the borough of South
Willlamsport and DuBoistown and
the townships of Clinton, Brady,
Washington, Bastress, Armstrong,
Susquehanna and Limestown, and
there are three townships in Union
county that would be willing to join
the new domain. The agitation
springs from the feeling on the free

II Means Another Rranch-
From the Muncy Luminary.

From the Muncy Luminary.
A corps of engineers are making
a survey on this side of the river,
from the Pennsylvania bridge, below
Montgomery, to Williamsport.
What this means no one here can
tell for certainty, but it is gener-
ally believed the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company intends to lay a track
on this side of the river to Williams
port. This woufd do away with the
rebuilding of the railroad bridge at
WIlliamsport, and would certainly
be great benefit to Muncy's bust
hess men and manufacturers as well
as to the travelling public, and would
bring a large amount of business to
that popular road, which it now loses
by being so far away from the town.

The action of the Ohio Republi'
ran Convention on the subject of
pensions arouses considerable criti-
cism among Democrats. 1t declar-
ed in favor of the passage by the
next Congress of a general pension
bill for honorably discharged SOL
diers and sailors of the Union during
the late war. Such law is certain
to come. 1t is only a question of
time. The survivors of every war
In which the United States took part
have been pensioned, not from the
close of such war but when the thing
could be done without imposing an
extraordinary burden upon the
Government, There ought to be no
objection in this case to following
the precedent already established.
1t is simply question as to whe ther
the time has arrived for such an ex-
ercise of generosity on the part Of
the Government toward the patrio-
tic defenders of the Union. 1t may
be added however, that the
Democratic organs do not take this
view of it. They are unalterably
opposed to rewarding the survivors
of rebel charges and rebel prison
pens in this way.

A dispatch from st. Paul states
that the first trial by an Indian jury
that every took place in the United
States, occurred at Red Lake Falls
recently. 1t was not trial, but a
preliminary examination of a sup
posed murderer, also an Indian, to
ascertain If there was probable
cause FOR committing him for trial.
He was held and the jury seemed to
be very much impressed and de-
pressed with a sense of great respon-
sibility. Perhaps this experiment
has discovered way to avoid very
much Of the troubles heretofore ex-
perienced on account of arresting
Indian criminals. If the Indians
sense their responsibility they may
be equal to it.
