Mind Your own Business.

An old custom once prevailed in re- mote place of giving a clock to anyone who would truthfully swear that he had minded his own business alone fol year and day and had not medal , with his neighbors Many came, 1ut few, if any, gained the prize, which was more difficult to win than the Duu- now fitch of bacon. Though they swore on the four Gospels, and held out their hands in certain hope, some hitch was sure to be found somewhere; and for all their assertions the clock remained stationary on its shelf, no one being able to prove his absolute i'm munity from uncalled-for interference in things not in any way concerning himself. At last a young man came with perfectly clean record, and the clock seemed as if it was at last about to change owners Then said the cus- todian: 70, a young man was here yes terday, and made mighty sure he was going to have the clock, but he didn't" !" Said the young man seeking the prize: And why didn't he get it?" What S that to you?" snapped out the GUS todian, that's not your business, and you don't get the clock. Home Jour nal

FISH YARNS.


 TIE fish in the Aroostock region are attacked by a skin disease which is killing tn em off rapidly.
 NICK ELMERs and Dick Brooks say that while bluefishing in Jamaica bay their boat was tipped clean over by 6 sudden bite from big one" The fish got away.
 DURING a heavy thunderstorm at Middles esborough, Ky. the other day a large number of fish dropped from the clouds The fish were perch and from one and a half to three inches long Where the fish came from nobody could guess, but the colonels never tell lies.
 CALIFORNIA salmon, or quinnet, are rare sport. J. P. Whitney. of Monterey is high line" this year with one thou sand pounds of fish. One weighed twenty-seven pounds. The biggest fish of the season, thirty-six pounds was caught by Thurlow McMullen in the McCloud river. It was twice as long as the basket and nearly as big as Macs own waist.
 J. A. ERCKSER, of Aransas county, Tex, swears before Notary P. II. Tan sey that he, John Gray and Nick Cos grove caught, within one hour, seven Junefish, weighing altogether eight hundred pounds. The heaviest was two hundred and twenty pounds But this age of incredulity has cosne to a pretty pass when such a little one as that doesn't go with an affidavit.

ONE of the greatest enemies of this republic is that destroyer of happiness known as the classical music teach CT" No agent has done more to per petuate our form of republican gov ernment than popular music. It has won battles, made happy homes, civil ized the savage, and in a thousand and one ways added to our greatness. All of our great inventors were lovers of popular airs. No mother ever raised a child or rocked it to sleep with the discorjant sounds of a modern selection" The child would cry itself to sleep over such music. De Konski, the musical pu-- veyor to the Austrian court, could not draw 8 paying house throughout all of the United States, and took pack to his native country only a few weeks ago poor opinion of Amer jeans, whom he characterized as "toO sympathetic to appreciate music" Music is the art of inspiring the soul to better deeds, but music must have melody as it's groundwork to inspire anything,

 His Bisbee wife is at present in Sonora in the vicinity of La Morita custom house south of Bisbee.

A Busy Doctor.

Dr. Liddell's morning levees were crowded beyond description. It was his pride and boast that he could feel his patients pulse, look at his tongue, sound him with stethoscope, write his prescription and pocket his fee in a space of time varying from two to five --i-utes.
 One day an army man was shown into the consulting room and underwent what might be termed the instanta- neous process. When it was completed the patient shook hands with the doctor and said:
 ''I am especially glad to meet you, as l have often heard my father, Col. Forester, speak of his old friend Dr. Liddel,."
 "What!' exclaimed the doctor, ''are you Dick Forester's son?''
 'I am, sir"
 My dear fellow!" exclaimed the doctor, fling that prescription into the fire, will you, please. and sit down and tell me what is the matter with you?" -Waveriey Magazine.

A SMALL FAVOR.
Pats Funny Request Put a Stop to the
 Duel.

Duel
 Although it is familiar saying that an Irishman is always spelling for a fight, still there is one kind of fighting to which even the brave sons of Erin are sometimes averse. This is dueling. A story well Illustrating this fact has recently come to us.
 4 certain Irishman, having been challenged to fight duel, accepted the conditions after much persuasion on the part of his friends, who felt confident of his success. His antag- onist, lame man, walked on crutches. When the place for the shooting had been reached the lame mans seconds asked that he be allowed to lean against milestone which happened to stand there. The privilege was al lowed, and the lame man took his stand.
 The Irishman and his seconds drew off to the distance agree,l upon, one hundred feet. Here Pats courage sud denly failed him and he shouted to the lame man:
 live small favor to ask of ye, sorr' What is it?" asked the cripple.
 Pat answered.: T tould ye thot ye might lean ag'in the milepost, and now would like the privilege of lean in ag'in the nixt one"
 The laugh that followed spoiled everybody's desire for fight, and the whole party went home without shot having been nfired.-Youth's Companion.

An n,m portant Decision.

The supreme court has decided e case from Pima county which is simi- lar to the Dunbar case.
 The defendant was sentenced to pay fine of $l0 and serve ten days in the county jail. In default Of paying the fine he was to serve until the fine was paid.
 He sought to get out on writ of habeas corpus on the same ground that the judgment was void.
 The supreme court held that the judgment was not void and that the prisoner must first serve cut the part of his sentence upon which there was no controversy, namely, the ten days, before the question of habsas corpus could be considered.
 MT. Dunbar was sentenced to jail for sixty days and to pay fine of a certain amount or go to jail until 1t was paid. Under this decisiop he should have served out his sixty days before the question of habeas corpus could be raised, but Judge Rouse thought otherwise and decided that because one part of the sentence was void that it all was.
 This is an important point and it is well that decision has been given for future guidance.
