A Mighty Hunters Triumph.


sThere was one incident in the woods
this season." said North woods guide,
(which was amusing, to say the least.
A wealthy Albanian, who spends his
summers in the vicinity of Lake George,
and who, by the way, enjoys military
title, came into the woods with great
pomp when deer was in season, and re-
quested that deer be captured for him.
This was done and the animal tied to a
tree. Then the military gentleman, vino
is member of a society for the protec-
ton of fish and game, brought his gun
up and blazed away at the tethered ami
NAL. 1t required six shots fromthe gun
of the Albanian to mortally wound the
deer. What do you think of that for
hunting? The guides in the woods when
they heard of the affair vowed they
would lynch the man if he came up
there again. Albany Journal.

Surprise at a Surprise Party.

A surprise party was given J. O'Don-
nell and wife, of Beaver Falls, by lot
of his neighbors. Mrs. Bridget Donavan
was one of the guests. She weighs
about 230 pounds, and when she essayed
a skirt dance it truly was a surprise
party. The floor was weak, Mrs. Dona-
van was heavy, and in the middle of a
difficult figure the floor gave way, and
the fair dancer disappeared into the cell
lar along with the kitchen stove. She
was quickly extracted from her perilous
position by the men of the party by the
aid of levers and ropes, and was found
to be but little injured. The stove,
fortunately, contained no fire, and did
not fall upon her.-Cor. Pittsburg Dis
