A Debate in Kentucky.

A debate was held in tho school-house Ut Barboursville, ky, the other even- ing, the proposition being: Resolved, that fire is more useful than watcr. :" After heated discussion of two hours the matter went to the referee, who, being Q married man with largo family, declined to decide the question. Then revolvers were drawn, and there was every prospect of a lively time until a eool-headed person moved that con- ference committee of two from each side, with'the referee as the fifth mem- ber, should adjourn to the hotel and en- deavor to arrive at Q settlement. This carried, the committee withdrew and in half an hour returned, presenting the following paper: "As compromise your committee has unanimously determined in favor of fre-water."

made. Blake conducted tho investiRae Non with the sharpness of . thorough business man, and how his eyes glis- toned with tears of real joy when, among the papers of the late Tom Thorpe, were discovered the shares of the supposed aefunct mining stock, which wefe worth ninety-eight cents with an upward ten- lency.
 Ten minutes later, after satisfying himself about the stock, Walter Blake was in the parlor of the little widow.
 Jennie, do you remember what hap pened about ten years ago?" he asked as his chin quivered and his voice grew husky.
 Her eyes filled with tears, and she covered her face with her hands. "I do not mean to reproach you, Jennie, for you too have suffered, but it does seem to me that the suggestion to go and saturate my head was somewhat superhuous, SO to speak," She sobbed convulsively, and her whole frame shook with emotion. "Jenne," continued Blake, as he took her little hand in his, ''you were never more To yely in my eyes than you are at this moment, but, that remark of yours about how mournfully my coat-tails duttered in the breeze as lscooted away through the front gate like beautiful dream, seems to me to have been a little dc trop, t9 use Latin quotation. l have even gone so far as to forgive you for saying that you would have married me if my nose had not been So cold"
 "Walter, don't reopen that subject she said piteously with an implorine 1 gesture.
 "If was in your fix would not care to talk about it, either; but, as said before: God forbid that l should say aught to recall the past. Will you be | mine?''
 N. B. His mind was probably run | ming on Golden Gate mining stock when | he said: "Be mine."
 A sudden oarmine flushed into Jennie's cheeks, and her heart throbe6 violently, as she murmured some indis tinct words. He took her in his arms held her close to his beating heart unti she had promised that they should share each others woes and joys. Then the long confined passionate love burs from it's imprisonment, and with tor rent of fond words he kissed her, anc cice oersa, until little Walter came in te see who was shooting off fire-crackers in the parlor.

tered the whole course of his life.
 The object of his youthful passion was Jennie Jones, the daughter of the wealthy editor of the local paper, the Weekly Bugle. She was the richest and tho prettiest girl in the village, and young Walter Blake had reason to believe that she loved him. Their re- lations were SO intimate that he had frequently scratched his wrist on the pin in her apron string. Time and again had she picked lint of his coat, which is said to be an unfailing sign that the young lady takes an abiding interest in the owner of the coat.
 Unfortunately for Walter, his love was not reciprocated. Jennie was much addicted to flirting, so, when Walter asked her to allow him to fill her name into his marriage certificate, she laughed him to scorn, and bade him go and saturate his head.
 It was cruel blow to Walter. In his case, fate not only pressed 8 cup of pois- on to his lips, but made him drain it slowly drop by drop. He made VOW never again to invite another girl to play first spoon in an ice-crea m duett. He was nauseated with the entire sex. and hurriedly settling up his affairs, left for New York. He had good head for business, and in a short time, rising from the brokers clerk, he became one of the boldest and most successful spec- ulators on Wall street. He worked in- cessantly, not for money but to dispel the vision of the fair young girl who had so abruptly fired him out of her warm affections into the cold outside world of realism.
 A year later and his bitterness in. creased by reading in marked copy o1 her fathers paper long, lurid account of the marriage of Jennie Jones, Sour talented and lovely daughter" to Thomas Thorpe, the village dude. Wal. | ter Blake sighed and swore a little, but

Entirely Out of His Course.

A Florida steamer got in dense fog while on her way down the river. A tourist, anxious to go ahead, went up to the captain, who was at the wheel, and asked why they had stopped.
 "Too much fog; can't see the river, replied the cautious captain.
 .'But," said the tourist, ''you can sec the stars overhead"
 "Yes," said the captain, "but until the boilers burst we are not going that way"

finally his love changed to utter loath ing for the tickle creature who had urged him to put cold applications to his head after she had told him she could not even be sister to him. He plunged moro recklessly than ever into the mael- strom of speculation, but he did not lose his head. We have noticed that when man has his nose held to the grindstone of misfortune his wits are sharpened by the operation. So it was with Walter Blake.
 One day not long since, while Blake was playing game of billiards in an uptown hotel he was accosted by 8 ountrifed-looking man, who said;
 "Why, Blake, old chap, how do you do? seen you for more than ten years. Let's go somewhere where we can talk quiet ly about Slowburg and old times. Why don't you come up and see us once in 8 while?"
 The speaker was none other than Jim Dobson. the old playmate and chum of Blake, when they were boys together in Slowburg.
 "Glad to see you, Jim," said Blake; ''come with me and have some lunch, and then we will go to my office and talk over old times."
 An hour later Walter Blake and Jim Dobson were seated in the cosy private office of the latter, smoking couple of thirty cent cigars and exchanging "reminiscences.
 They talked about their native town and the people, many of whom had passed away. Finally Blake remarked carelessly:
 "How is that tspindle-shanked thimble full of alleged brains, who married Jennie Jones coming on? Is he as much | of chump as he used to be?" "How can tell how he is coming on? He has been dead six months," replied l Dobson.
 "Deadr' exclaimed Blake.
 "Yes, dead as a can of pressed beef. Dead as the Panama canal or New Yorlk's chance for the worlds fair.'
 "Has the disconsolate widow married | again?' asked Blake with sheer. 1 "You must not be hard on the widow, even if she did go back on you. You are not the only man she fooled. Your humble servant was also victim. After she married that rich snipe used to sit out in the moonlight and cry by the hour," said Dobson.
 "She not only tilted me" said Blake, bitterly, ''but she made fun of me be- sides. She said after left that the only pleasant recollection she had of me was the poetic way in which my coat tails mournfully waved in the breeze as l went out the front gate, after she had advised me to go and saturate my head. '
 ''That's the way girls are," remarked Dobson, philosophically. "Forty girls will run after snob with gold-headed cane where one will shy up to fellow
