HE SURPRISED ELIZA"

John Roberts, of Tucker County,
is farmer well enough to do, but
he had always been eccentric about
his clothes. Until week or so
ago he had not been known to buy
new suit of clochcs for years.
The ones he wore had been go often
patched and repatched that no bit
of the original warp and wool was
visible. This personal slovenliness
on the part Of her husband was a
source Of constant annoyance to
Mrs. Roberts, who is woman of
exceptional neatness. She long ago
became so ashamed Of his appear
unce that she would not longer ac-
company him to town to do her
trading. This singular character
Istlc OF the farmer was not owing to
pennriousness, for he is liberal
man in all his dealings. A few
days ago he went to town to do a
little trading, and, to the utter
astonIshment OF the town he pur-
chased new suit of clothes for
himself. His new clothes were
done mp in package, and he
placed the package on the wagon
seat beside him when he started
home that night. Farmer Roberts
had got half way home when a
brilliant idea struck hlm. lie
stopped his horse on bridge where
the road crosses the east branch.
"Ill do it, by gum J" he said.
"lil do il and surprise Liza -
Thereupon the farmer rose up in
the wagon and began to take off
the patched and rcpatched clothes
he had worn so long. AS he re-
moved garment he tossed it into
the creek until he had tossed them
all IN, and bad nothing on but his
shirt. Great Apple sass ~ he
exclaimed. "But won't Eliza be
surprised ~ Then Farmer Rob
erts reached for the package that
had his new clothes in. II wasn't
on the seat. Farmer Roberts got
down and reached under the seat.

he felt all over the bottom Of the
wagon. The package wasn't auy.

Roberts rose mp in the wagon and
looked back along the pitch dark
road. Then he climbed back i'm
his seat, and'away the horses went
for home. The night was chilly
and there was three miles to 20.
When Farmer Roberts reached
home ar Il climbed out Of the wagon
he paused. "The hull idee didn't

clothes hanging by its string on
the brake handle at the side Of the
wagon he was little surprised

al free fight took place, when long

ed the crew. The patrol wagon with
reinforcement arrived and the arrest
ed sailors were taken to jail. The

when the crowd clamored for his life,
aud he was rescued with difficulty by
another officer in a buggy. Robert.
