has added to the real hersism and mar.

THE late elections ara favorable to the
Democrats, Full returns are not In from
the four baby states, but Montana has
come from 5000 Republican majority in
November to a Democratic majority
Of about 500. The Republican ma.
jorities IN the other three states

notable change is that Indianapolis,
the city from which President Harrison
came, has gone Democratic for the first
time since since 1874 II was in 1874
that the Grant scandals were in the full

BROKE DOWN The FENCES.
How n Shrewd Father Disposed OF His Sin
Daughters.
tYouth's Companion. /


In an old book written by a western congress
man, n contemporary of Clay and Webster, con-
tanning "reminiscences of his times, a story is
told of one of his friends. a farmer in Kentucky
named Payne, who had six daughters, none Of
whom were blessed with beauty. The congress.
man knew them in their homely youth, and
when he returned a few years later found them
all married to good, influential men. So great
was his surprise that he ventured 10 ask their
father why they had been all so sought when
other girls remained neglected. The old farmer
chuckled
"Yes, and you may say when they had neither
dover nor good looks. Well, I'll tell YOU
When want my cattle to ear buckwheat stubble
instead OF grass, | don't drive them into that
field; fence il OF from them. They are so
contrary that they always want the thing they
can't get. They break down the fence; drive
them out and put il up. BY the time they fight
for it once or twice they think they like the
stubble.
"Well, ] saw my girls weren't the most
attractive kind, and-I fenced them inl
"You never found them in hotels dancin' or
keepin' stalls at county fairs. Young men to
know them had TO come 10 their fathers house,
When the neighbors saw how the Payne girls
were kept away from the crowd they thought
their value must be high. Young men came to
break down the fences. They like TO break
down fences"
1.-THE story was coarsely told, perhaps" adds
the old narrator, "but there is more in it than
meets the eye.D

Separated by Religion.
TPhilndaInhin Rarord !

Seven young Bradys, ranging from two to
seventeen years of age, stood grouped about
their mother in Judge Bregy's court yesterday,
where they had been brought by their father,
Henry Brady, by a writ of habeas corpus in an
effort to have them transferred to his keeping.
The rest of his children, Brady said. were
grown up. When Judge Breezy heard that
Brady and his wife had separated on account OF
a difference OF religion, he dismissed the case
with the severe remark:
THE sin of this separation has been COM
mitted in the name or on account OF what they
term religion. l think the community might
say that il was the absence of religion. How
ever, they separated, the wife taking seven
children and the husband three. / propose to
let them remain as they selected to do. The
writ is dismissed"

of. These consisted OF provisions of vari-
Gus kinds, including 10000 pounds Of ba-
con, 200 bushels of wheat, and 400 pairs
of socks knit by the ladies OF Martinsville
of tax-in-kind yarn, and ready bagged and
marked to be sent to the soldiers from
Henry county.
On the morning of the 9th of April the
Union troops left Martinsville and took up
their line of march southwark 10 JOIN
Stoneman's command, then stationed at
Sandy Ridge, Stokes county, North Caro-
lima. When quiet had been restored to the
little town, the good housewives began TO
bethink them of the absentees, and mes
sengers were sent to apprise them that all
danger was past. After a diligent search
all save one of the fugitives were discov-
cred. As the day advanced, and no trace
OF the missing man had been seen, alarm
began to be felt lest some evil had befalen
him. Presently, one OF the party came
upon a demijohn with glass turned care
fully over its mouth. An examination Of
this article (the contents of which had been
only partially consumed) proved 1t TO be
the property of their lost comrade.
Hell be on hand soon," said the dis
coverer of the demijohn, quietly. WED
better wait for him here"
His suggestion was acted upon, and, con-
cealing themselves in the woods, the party
prepared TO wait. Soon a slight cracking
was heard among the bushes, and our
hero emerged, walking on tip-toe, and,
peering cautiously about to make sure that
no foe was at hand. His objective point
was evidently the demijohn, but the eager
hand which he placed upon the inverted
glass was arrested by chorus OF laughter
from his hidden companions.

! the exiles again in the bosom OF their fam
lilies, exchanging adventures with those
