She Did Not Quite Explain.

Even III business so grave as the under
takers ludicrous situations often occur. Here
is a good story told of an undertaken In our
neighboring city of indianapolis.
This undertaken. whom we will call MIR.
2, is a very sympathetic man, and one
who sincerely mourns when it becomes his
painful duty to take charge OF the obsequies
OF his friends or acquaintances.
On freezing cold day last winter young
lady whom he knew well and whose family
he was much attached to entered his office
and seemed to be at once so overcome by her
feelings that she could not speak. MIR. z,
much shocked to think that some member Of
her family had fallen victim to the death
angel, drew her near the CRATE and placed
her in a chair He then thought it best to
let her take her own time TO tell him the sad
news. The young lady sat for some time
with head bowed and unable to retain her
sobs. Finally she drew a note out of her
muff. handed it to Mr. z and went sob
bing out OF the office The note was addressed
to Mrs T. but the affair seemed so curious
Nj. u resolved to read the note 1t ran like
this
MY dear Mrs, z: AS you are il our section
in the church, l am going to ask you to
contribute boiled ham for our social next
Tuesday evening at the church pariors.
Yours, in haste, lirs -"
AfterwYd, when asked why she wept SO
copiously, the young Lady said: I'm the first
place l cried because l was SO cold, and then
just as | went in | happened to think how
dreadful it would be if any of our family
were dead. "-Chicago Times.

ENDED IN A FIGHT.
The Teemer-Gaudaur Single Scull Race at
McKeespOrt, Pa.

MCKEEsPORT, Pa, Sept. 13.-The race
in single sculls between J. Teemer, Of this
city, and Jacob Gaudaur, of@eSt. Louis,
came off here this evening, but instead Of
1t being the exhibition it was expected to
be, turned ont miserable affair.
In the afternoon Teemer went alone,
aud Gaudaur, accompanied by Al Hamm,
his trainer, proceeded to Barmardls grove,
about quarter of a mile from the starting
point Of the race. At 53l Teemer got into
his boat; at 5:35 Gaudaur came to the
starting point and Al Hamm, at
the same time, was seen to enter his
boat a quarter mile up the course and take
position well out from the shore. Teemer
took the lead almost at the first stroke. By
the time they had reached where 1amm set
out Teemer was nearly two boat lengths
ahead OF Gaudaur and soon took the inside
track The referees boat was slow, but
near enough to the OaTsmen before a mile
had been made to see Hamm get directly
in Teemer's way and collide with his boat.
Soon Teemer was seen 10 fall behind.
Both Gaudaur ard Hamm. who rowed
leisurelyaway from him, followed closely by
ali the river craft carrying spectators eX-
cept the referees boat. They reached the
end OF the course at 6:G6, Teemer being at
the turn, although apparently pulling
with all his might nearly half mile be
hind Two OF Teemer's brothers, and
'Billy'' Nickerson, of Boston, made claim
of foul when Hamm was seen to get in
Teemer's way Teemer continued on over
she course, although the waves from the
numerous steamers which had passed him
Were running four feet high.
At7 o'clock the referee, Gaudaur,
Hamm, Teemer and a lew of their
friends met in room in
the National hotel. Teemer claims the
race on foul. He said that Hamm came
on the course and ran into his boat, knock
ing hole in it and causing it to fill with
water. Hamm denied this and intimated
that Teemer was telling talsehood,
,vhereupon the latter rushed Mt him and
struck him fearful blow in the face. The
two men clinched and rolled over on the
floor but were separated. Hamm was
induced TO leave the room. BY this time
a crowd was at the door clamoring for adj
mission and demanding Il decision bv the
referee, while several hundred We're in the
street in front OF the hotel eager 10 know
the result In order to avoid violence be-
ing done here tonight the referee said he
would not announce his decision until to-
morrow afternoon.

4 LITTLE REACTION.

been absorbed, of which none has
gone abroad and scarcely any TO the

enough to prevent monetary pressure
| Then there was known to be more than

the additional money has been absorbed by
speculation IN stocks. Heavy sales OF
stocks on foreign account have caused a
| little reaction and raggedness, but the gen.
eral average OF prices Is still nearly hall d
dollar per Share higher than week ago.

in number and importance The exports
of products are remarkably large Tor Jne

active. Wheat Is half cent higher, with
sales for the week of only 10,000000 bush

An Old Game Revived.

tOne Of the neatest tricks | have neard Of
in some time was perpetrated by pair of
burglars in this city lately" said a police cap
tain yesterday. THE younger Of the two
had entered private residence while the in
mates were at tea, and the elder stood out
side on watch. Tho rifer was discovered and
was soon chased from ono floor to another by
two gentlemen members of the household.
Somebody called police and the outside
burglar, drawing his revolver, responded
There, there, ladies; don't make any fuss
I'll take care of this fellow he said, and,
making a rush, he grabbed his mate by the
collar and gave him cuff on the neck as he
he'd him down the stoop. The family breathed
more freely, and the gentlemen prepared to
go 10 the station hoRse to swear out a com
plaint When they arrived there nobody
had heard of the case. The burglars had
vanished. It's an old trick but I haven't
heard about it in this neighborhood IN many

NERY RISKY INDEED

To tamper with symptoms indicative Of
growing kidney disorder; to neglect for a
brief time needful stimulation of the renal
organs when their inactivity points, as it
always and uumistakably does, to their
eventual permanent disease, is certainly
very risky indeed. This is, however, u
risk that many persons perceptibly drift
ing into Bnght's disease, diabetes, Ca
tarrh Of the bladder etc. constantly in
cur. So those who read, reflect and heed
the lessons OF recorded experience, the ad-
visibility OF using Hosteter's Stomach
Bitters as a diuretic, need scarcely more
than a suggestion. No fact is more gem
orally admitted BY the medical profession
and the public than lit eifacay for the pre-
vention Of serious renal disease. The un-
medlcated eXcitants of commerce, no mat
ter how pure, bear in mind, react

GOLDEN ROD.

The way is long. the lost boy said;
The stars were shining overhead;
The silence Of the deep black woods,
Their dim and death like solitudes,
And unseen dangers round him ky,
Greas shadows rose and barred the way.
Afraid to pass he paused and wept,
Lay down upon the moss and slept
In dreams mother soothed his fears;
The night dews mingled with his tears,
And like forgotten sunbeams there,
About him strayed his golden hair.
a serpent meath his outstretched arm
Slipped by, nor sought to do him harm;
At midnight, when the winds were wild,
An angel came and found the child.
The woods were btghted by the frost,
Dead leaves about the dead were tossed;
Came winter on flying cloud,
And clad him in a snowy shroud;
And spring, maid from holy lands,
Put purple violets in his hands;
And summer sent her birds to sing
Where his still heart lay moidering.
The sun, the snow. the wind, the rain,
Resolved him back to dust again;
TIL autumn, in the wilderness,
Found nothing but sliken tress,
She wound it on a slender rod,
And set it In the withered sod,
And so the lost boys golden locks
Make glory on the lichened rocks.
