Expensive Fox Hunting.

Lord Marlborough, the owner of the
North Lincolnshire pack of foxhounds,
in furnishing some statistics relative to
fox hunting. states that there are $50
packs of hounds in England, Scotland and
Ireland. Assuming the cost of foxhounds
to be 1850 for one day per week for the
year, staghounds to cost $3.50 and har-
riers e20O, keeping up hounds in the
United Kingdom causes the expenditure
OF e414, $50, and estimating 100 men
hunting with each pack, each man hav-
ing three horses, that means that SO, 900
horses are engaged.
Putting the cost of each horse at fif-
teen shillings per week, this comes to
considerably over e3, 500, OOO So, main
tains the noble lord, the cost of keeping
hounds and maintaining the hunt in the
United Kingdom comes altogether to
"a 500. 900, independent of the expenses
of carriage horses, cover hacks, travel
ing expenses, etc.-Pan Mall Gazette.

The Story of a Dream.

There was a group of business men
who had met at their club and were dis
cussing some of the serious and meta
physical questions of the day. One of
them was middle aged man with a
thoughtful visage and iron gray hair
He heard the others specializing Oh.
transcendental theories with close atten-
ton, and finally remarked:
Il had a strange dream last night-a
very strange dream. If you promise
not to laugh at me will relate it. AS
general thing | do not believe in dreams.
but this was very convincing-very.'
''Let us hear it," said his friends
unanimously; dreams often mean more
than we can understand
The dreamer stroked his chin thought
fully, and finally began in the manner of
a man who does not expect to be be-
ieved.

Neither of Them Got Licked.

Dan Moody was a raftsman on the
Susquehanna river, and it was his boast
that he could lick any man on the river
from the mouth of the Chemung to
Havre de Grace. Dan lived at Towanda,
in Bradford county, and finally grew
old and rheumatic. In his old age 1.-The
boys" used to put a stranger up to ques-
ton Dan about his many fights, and after
the old man got thoroughly interested
and was boasting freely of his youthful
exploits this question was sprung on
him:
'sBut, Uncle Dan, didn't anybody ever
lick you?''
mo, sir, never got licked in my en-
durin life
The next question was: but, Uncle
Dan, you came near getting licked once,
didn't you? Seems to me I've heard that
you came awful near getting licked just
once. Tell us about that, won't you?"
The old man had to be pressed to get
the story out of him, but he would tell
it occasionally, and here it is: 'sOnce |
was haulin load of boards along the
road from a mill up on Sugar creek. 1t
was an awful hot day, and goin past
piece of woods when the shade only
came half way across the road | met
Teller in buggy. Turn out, says he.
Turn out yourself says |. See We fur
Their first says he; drive out into the
sun yerself.' Well, l didn't drive out,
and | did tell him what | thought of
him, and bimeby we KEN to blows. l
jumped down often the load and he got
outen his buggy, and we went at it, and
we fit and fit and fit, but neither of us
seemed to get the best of it." Here the
old man would pause moment until he
was asked:
''But which Of you turned out, Uncle
DAMP" Then he would reply:
''Oh, / did; we fit so long that the sun
went down, so that there was shade
clear across the road, and l turned out
l didn't care then, of course, and that's
the nearest | ever came to getting
licked. st. Louis Republic.

NUMBER 27.

Newtown is little given to patriotic ate that the bell in the Congregational steeple is to be rung on Sunday, the third of July, as it was hung July 3, 1767, as ex-Town Clerk Peck points out, 125 years ago. It was not the first bell in Newtown, however, though part of the first bell was in it. This first bell, of about 300 pounds weight, had been given the Presbyterian society at legal meet ing, September 6, 1762, by Capt Amos Botsford and MT Nathaniel Frisco, ''for ye use of sd society so long as there shall be Presbyterian society to meet in ye above sd meeting house; that is to say, if ye above sd society will go on to Cum pleat ye sd Steeple, fix ye outside of ye meeting house and cutler it and cutler ye pulpit" This bell was apparently hung. for January 9, 1764, Abiah Botchford was appointed bell ringer to ''ring sd Bell on ye Sabath & all other public times & at Nine o'clock at night" But this bell was not satisfactory, though the first and on- ly one in town. A public 'signation" of f27, 4s, I'd was raised; tallways to be understood that ye inhabitants of ye Church of Ingland Society in Newtown Signed of ye above sd moneys and pro- vitions ye sum of five Pounds, 12s, 9d.'' This is the quaint testimony of the an- cient church record to an act of Christ ian union and mutual helpfulness. It goes on: "Part of ye money & proyitions being gathered on about ye first Day of July, the Committee for ye Bell took ye old Bell and conveyed it Down to Fair field, Got it Run & Brought up ye New Bell & delivered it up & it was Hung on ye Sd Day of July, A. D., 1767." It was a new bell in new steeple, just built on the east end of the church, which then stood on the site of the liberty pole, the Church of England church being located farther south, somewhere in front of Dicks hotel or whereabouts. Rev David Judson was then the Presbyterian pastor and venerable Rev John Beach was still the Church of England missionary sta- tioned here and at Bedding.
