The Returns from Maine.

Northward to the lake Cheaplawgan

To Mattawamkeag, and to Sabec

Come they; come the G. o. Piers,
With returns that make our party
Sick in myriads of placesl
Not a spruce gum chew OF comfort
Comes to Cleveland or to Wilson;
Not saw log rolls in glory
OF the tariff they have furnished
Us to scoop the voters in with.
Gods and little fishes help us,
II this Maine boom once get started,
II the people get the notion
That our doing is dishonor,
And perfdious is our action,
By the spruce gum oozing slowly,
BY the saw logs In the river,
BY the grim and gray Kathadin,
Will the leaders Of our party
Tell us what the signs are?
If the G.. o. Piers treble
The undoing Of us last time,
And the thing should prove contagious
Where will be our final atness?

Demolished Fifty Houses in Oklahoma
Three Killed and Many Injured.
A TORNADO descended last week without
a moments warning on the towns of Jen-
nings and Mining, Oklahoma. Fifty homes
were den olished in the two places, and it is
known that three persons, young woman
and two children, were killed and several
persons injured. In the town OF Mining the
overturned stoves set fire to the ruins, and
the place was almost entirely destroyed
Farmers from the surrounding country
flocked in and did all in their power to save
property and care for those hurt The in

were internally injured, cannot recover.

How Dash Learned to Take Care of t}is
Mistress Pussy.
Dash was a Gordon setter who had
enj Dyed the full confidence Of all the
ihembers of large household for half
n iifetime-that is to say, half dogs
lifetime. From puppyhood he had been
petted and treated rs person of i'm
portance.
He had many pleasures, but the
greatest was being sent scampering
down the long garden in pursuit of
cats ignorant that this particular piece
of ground belonged to dog.
Dash's master disliked cats almost as
much as the dog, and as these animals
made havoc with his flowers, breaking
down his favorite rose trees and lying
in the midst of his Canterbury bells,
perhaps his dislike was no more to be
condemned than the dogs. However
that may be, the moment q cats nose
or tail appeared at any corner of the
garden wall Dash was summoned to
give chase. Cats and the legs of the
iceman were two morsels that Dash
longed to taste. The man had acci-
dentally hit the dog with piece of ice
which he was throwing away, and on
another occasion he had shaken his
tongs at him.
One day Dash bounded into the sit
ting-room in answer to n call from his
mistress and found her petting a little

From Samson, who slew so many of
his enemies with the jaw bone of an
ass, to the strong man of to-day, who
holds piano on his back, the world
has known many giant of strength.
Among these there lived in France at
one time certain Gen. Favrat, who
was probably the strongest man of his
time. Even in his old age his strength
did not desert him, as illustrated IN n
rather amusing story told concerning
him and his family physician. Feeling
i'll one day he sent for the doctor. As
the latter was sitting by the bedside
the old warrior began to lament: "Ah,
dear doctor, am not the man | was;
you can't imagine how weak ain get
ting; look hero" and with these
words he grasped with his right hand
one of the legs Of the chair on which
the doctor was sitting, and lifted both
the chair and its occupant couple of
feet from the ground. You see it
takes quite an effort"

announced that Prof. Drydapper would
make his first bow-so to speak-be-
fore a Dancing Branch audience on
Capt. Twitchells farm.
About that time Nisby received q
letter by special messenger and
furtively conveyed, that seemed to
put her in high good humor. She
would explain nothing to anybody,
but went about the house as chirripy
and frishy us a squirrel in nutting
time. Previously she had been rather
moody and preoccupied.
Cant see what's come over the
girl" said her father. If that John
Henry was about, should say he was
responsible"
But, though Mr.. Padget had not
been seen on Dancing Branch for, as
some expressed it, "a month of Sun
days" his absence was moro than re-
placed to the captains mind by an
agent of the great Drydapp.r. BY the
time the latter had finished explain
ing and persuading, Capt. Twitchell
had agreed to give up his big barn
down in the Branch bottom for the
purpose of furthering the professors
cloud-compelling operations.
"Mind you, though" stipulated the
prudent captain, If the rain don't
come, that feller has got to pay me for
the use of my barn"
Late one afternoon the great Dry
dapper arrived with q negro, a mule, n
covered wagon tightly closed and a
