THEY ARE WRoNG.-Those of our cit
liens who are asserting that our late
trouble with the postmaster was caused
by jealousy of his place on our part are
doing us a grave injustice. True, we
were a candidate for postmaster, and
true also we are a mighty sight better
man for the place than the present in
cumbent, but we are not jealous.
The trouble began as soon as this man
entered the postoffce. He held back our
mail and made us weary in many other
ways. We pounded him half to death
one day and for two months he was
model postmaster. Then he got sassy
and shot at US, and we left the bullet in
his shoulder. That lasted him until the
other day. He then got on his ear and
tried to prick us with bowie knife, and
in sheer self defense we shot off part
of his left ear and banged him with the
butt Of the revolver 1t was in the in

Could Not Promote Him.

1t is well known that Charles XII Of
Sweden was n man who united Co an in
vincible obstinacy restless energy and
indomitable valor. 1t is not so well known,
however, that he was equally distinguished
for his love Of truth. His biographer,
Lundblad, tells the following anecdote of
this last characteristic of his royal hero
The king had issued most stringent or
ders against dueling and major who had
disobeyed and had killed his adversary in
SO called ''affair of honor fled the eoun-
try.
During the absence of the monarch in
Turkey, however, he returned to his native
land, and again received an appointment
in the Swedish army.
When Charles escaped from captivity
and resumed command of his troops he
met the major by chance and recognized
him at once. He said nothing, however,
for he had need of efficient officers. A short
time afterward the major distinguished
himself in battle and Charles desired to
promote him, but was unwilling to let the
officer suppose that he had not been recoc-
nized
One day when reviewing his troops he
suddenly approached the major, and put
the question to him If he were not the man
who had kille1 Il comrade in duel.
The poor fellow, thrown into confusion
by the sudden accusation, denied his guilt.
whereupon the king turned to his general
and said: "It's too bad. The man lies and
lean reward him. Youth s Companion.
