Modest Beneyolence.

Two very pretty girls in this town
recently attended service in a church
where they were strangers. When the
time came for taking up the collection
they found to their dismay that they
had but one cent between them. And
there, coming up their side of the aisle
with the plate, was a lovely young
man with whom they were slightly ac-
quainted. They simply couldn't put
that solitary cent in the plate, and to
put in nothing was not to be thought
Of. Then n Of the girls bethought
her pocket. She pulled it out, dropped
the coin in it, sealed it, and when the
lovely young man came along she
dropped the envelope in with an air
that made the collector think it con-
tanned at the very least a SIS note

Now, the Deacon was ono of the kind

with half-c!osed eyes, his thoughts wan
dered to the approaching Thanksgiving
dinner, and then, by an easy transition,
to other peoples dinners. Few dinners,
he felt sure, would surpass his own, while
many would be far inferior in lavish
n%bundance; some people even, and the
Deacon sighed Us he thought of them,
would have very scanty dinners indeed,

times during the long winter to come.

A Remarkable Compositions,

A school entertainment was given
in n of the rural districts, not so w
full far from New York City, in which
a prominent part was taken by q young
daughter of a well-known New York
business man. The young miss was
to read q story of herow composition,
and as a special mark of confidence she
was allowed to prepare it without any
assistance. and it was exempted from
the usual scrutiny of teachers and
parents.
On the evening of the entertainment
the room was crowded with the elite of
the village. The young authoress was
given the post of honor on the pro-
gramme, and us she read her story it
was received with generous applause.
1t was a story of the love and trials of
q young couple in the country, and de-
picted the customary scenes supposed
to ecu in such cases. In heconclus-
ion she told of what became of almost
everything on the farm that was there
when the hero and heroine were young
and suffering. The following was the
way she disposed of the oxen:
"And the dear old oxen, Billy and
Bess, they continued to work patiently
for many years, and their children,
which were little calves when George
and May were young, are the oxen now,
toiling as patiently AZ their father and
mother used to-"
This part of the story had a remark
able effect on the elders in the aud
fence, and the poor little authoress
could not imagi inc why her father look
ed SO stern and her mother flushed up
so. :
Hereafter her compositions will be
edited before they are read in public.

Captain Merredith's Courtesy.

When Captain Meredith took charge
of the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing, says a Washington correspondent,
he found that on but one day of the
week were visitors permitted to go
through the establishment, which is
one of the sights of the capital. Dis
corning no good reason why this Office
should not be open every day, as other
Government concerns are, the Captain
ordered the doors opened from 9:3O to
2 o'clock, and provided q corps of
guides to show visitors about. For
this he is being savagely criticised by
some Of the mugwump organs, though
most people look upon the change as .
proper and most welcome improvement.

Potatoes a. Missiles in q Duel.

The sermon was concluded with a
terrible denunciation of q bully who
had threatened him, and then the
preacher concluded the service in the
usual way.
On the following day Bill Bowman
received . challenge to meet Bully
Brown, in open combat to settle the
matter and remove the stains from the
bully's wounded honor.
Brother Bowman was not backward
in the least particular, and having the
choice of weapons, he selected them at
once.
Through his second he notified Bully
Brown that he would meet him at a
specified time and place. and that a
half bushel of Irish potatoes, selected
the size of q mans fist, should be the
weapons. These were to be picked up
one at q time, and the duelists were to
throw thom at each other, at q distance
of fifteen PAGES, until the potatoes
were exhausted or the duelists were
satisfied.
This selection Infatuated Brown. He
considered that it was heaping insult
OH indignity, and he fairly raved
over it.
But he was compelled to accept, as
Brother Bowman vas firm in his po-
sition.
OF course such q unique affair at
tracted a great crowd, and on the day
appointed there was all immense gath
ering at the place appointed for the
fight.
Bowman was an expert hand at
throwing, and when the principals
took their places and the word was
given, Brown threw at Bowman with
all his might and missed.
Bowman had reserved his fire, and
as Brown stopped to pick UP another
potato. Bowman let drive and the mis-
sile went straight to the mark. It
raised q knot OH Brown as large as the
potato.
Then the fight became hotter. Brown
was wild with anger, and his potatoes
We're thrown ut random. Brown was
cool and self-possessed, and he made
every shot tell.
For five or ten minutes the battle
ragged, but about the time the sixth
potato raised its lump on Browns body
the latter cried enough.
He was badly beaten. He was
bruised and bunged up to such an ex-
tent that he had to be carried to his
bed anda physician was summoned to
attend to his wounds.
When he got up again he was the
worst cowed man i'll Grayson County,
and after that he was never known to
offer a challenge again.-Atiaut0 Con-

A Gamblers, Trust.

The Inter Ocean says that Chicago
has u tiger trust composed of twenty
five gambling houses allied Extensively
and defensively. The chief of the
avowed gamblers is Geo. Hankins,
whose games netted him SAB, 900 in the
month of October. Hankins prefers
faro to tho turf, with good reason.
Mike Mcdonald is the power behind
the scenes who gives force and effect
to the wishes of the trust in public
matters. The trust is powerful in local
politics because it a and hes raised a
