TWO UNBELIEvERs.
They Refused TO Trouble Their Loved
Ones Religious Convictions.

The following story ID told Of Littre,
the great French savant: Legouve says
that shortly after Llttre's daughter was
born he (Llttre) said to his wife:
my dear, you are Q good Christian.
Bring up your daughter in the ways OF
religion and piety which you have al
ways followed; but must exact one
condition, and that is that when she Is
Is years OF age you will bring her to me.
I will then explain my views to her and
she can choose for herself" ..s4rr
The mother accepted the condition.
Years rolled on, the fifteenth birthday
ofthe child soon came, and the mother
entered her husbands study.
itYou remember what you said to me
and what / promised p said she.
"Your daughter is Is years old to-
day. She Is now ready TO listen to you
with all the respect and confidence due
to the best OF fathers. Shall bring her
in?" ''. ,f'i.". .irf
"Why, certainly" replied Littre.
"But for what special 'reason?" To ex-
plain to her my views! Oh, no, my dear;
no, no: You have made of her good,
affectionate, simple, Straightforward,
bright and happy creature. Happy
yes; that Is the word that in apure be-
Ing describes every virture. And you
fancy that 1 would cover all that hap
piness and purity with my ideas!
Pshaw! my ideas are good enough for me.
Who can cay that that they would be
good for her? Who can say they would
not destroy or. at least damage your
word? Bring her In SO that / may bless
you In her presence for all that you
have done fol- her, and so that she may
love you more than ever."' 211tCI
II too," added Legouve, at the close
of this little anecdote, shave around
me believers whom / love, and 1 would

doubts and my objections, especially

convictions nothing but Joy, consola-
ton, and virtue" e,t 1o'f7E.

-
ERIE, Pa, June 30.-Miss Ida Wake
ly, the handsome young night telegraph
operator at Swanville station, on the
Nickel Plate railroad, was the heroine
Of terribly thrilling encounter Satur-
day night. When Miss Wakely took
the position at the little out-of-the-wav
country station, she realized the dam
gers to which she would be exposed
from the horde of. nomads who follow
the road from east to- west, and not on
ly armed herself, but practiced until
she became an expert with the pistol.
Shortly after midnight and at an
hour when there were but few trains,
the young woman heard some one at
the door and a second later q villainous
face appeared at the window. The fell
low demanded admittance and was re-
fused, whereupon he came back with a
large lump of coal and threw 1t against
the window, crashing it against the
lights and then made a dash for the
opening. Just then Miss Wakely pull
ed her revolver and ordered the villain
to retreat. He stopped to parley, say
ing, "You wouldn't shootp and Just
then the brave young woman took de-
liberate aim. =, t...,.7,,i-t A,o,,, E-e.5
The burglar withdrew his head from
the opening in the window, but did not
leave. While the young woman held
at bay the desperate, who drew aknife,
she used the other hand to call the next
station, where train was side tracked.
and to her joy, after a long while. she
caught the operator, whom she inform
ed other dilemma. The engine was de-
tached, and with the crew aboard ran
to the young woman's rescue. oP9la
While the crew was coming to the
young woman's rescue the burglar
tried to induce her to hand out the con-
tents of the safe, and made blood curd-
ling threats, but when he heard the
engine coming the burglar ran away.
The night of terror was too much for
Miss Wakely, and when relieved she
fell In dead faint.

How Some Persons o btain Pensions.

How Some Persons Obtain Pensions.
John Dean was mustered into the
service of the United States February
25, 1858, but never got any nearer the
seat of war than Staten Island. While
In camp there he contracted q shame
full disease, on account of which he
went to the hospital and never rejoin-
ed his regiment On the 7th of April,
1864, he was discharged from the SER
vice for disability, the surgeon of vol
unteers in charge Of the hospital GER
Trying that he had lost his eyesight
through this disease and taking the pre-
taution to add to his official record,
mot case for pension" In 1877 this
rascal had the impudence to apply for
a pension, on the pretence that his mis-
fortune was due to disease contracted
in the service, but the board of sur
geons who examined him In June,
1878, made short work of his case.
Ten years more have passed, and his
impudence having grown with his
years he applied to congress for the
special mark of honor implied in the
passage of private pension bill for his
especial benefit, and such bill was
rushed through both houses. Presi-
dent Cleveland, however. interferred
with his veto, and saved the honorable
men on the pension roll from the
shame of having such q person in their
company. A few months later new
president came In, the bill was again
passed, and the congressional record of
June announced that BENJAMIN Har-
rison, who was evidently familiar
with all the facts Of this history, had
allowed the bill granting pension to
John Dean to become a. law without

You? At Kokomo in 1886, by actual

spring opened up there wasn't more

The snowfall at Kokomo is general v

November, 38 inches; December, 81 in

inches; March, 70 inches; April, % in
ches; May, II inches. Making q total
of 20 feet and ten inches. About eight
.tenths of this snow fell during the
night time, and nearly one-half of II
was very damp, settling rapidly as II
