A COUNTRY COUSIN
Unable to Resist the Charms of a
Woman Infatuated With
His Gold Watch.


Woman infatuated With
His Gold Watch
A large, full grown, but decidedly
immature country creature, with hay
seeds, figuratively speaking, cropping
out all over his actions, rushed into
the Office of Justice Anton Adam, this
morning, with large, penitent tears,
swiftly coursing down his cheeks,
complaining over the loss of his watch
and chain, of which he said he had
been robbed. by one of the tickle
lights that cast their radiance ON the
bald pates of the audiences in one of
our variety shows. The woman was
brought into the room, the watch and
chain returned to the countri-
fled citizen, and no affidavit
of theft was made, as the justice
concluded that Mr.. Hayseed had
given the woman the watch and
chain under the influence of liquor
and her winning ways. The Judge
kindly gave the visitor from the
cowpens and hay fields, a paternal
bit of advice, by which he tearfully
promised to profit in the blessed
hereafter, and then sent him home to
the more unsophisticsted maidens
that grow up with the calves and
daisies Of his neigh nOrhood.

without knowing anything Of the science

morning saying i would never see him

evening papers,"
"Yes'm."

'After you have put it M he'll want a
glass of soda water to take it in, and he'll
stand and stir it with his finger and tell
You that Pm quick tempered, extravaganza

will be that bell walk out and leave you
