Too Much FOR the Devil.

According to the Salem Gazette, this is
Edward Hale's story: A man had sold
himself to the devil, who was to possess
him at certain time, unless he could
PROFOUND question TO his satanic ma
jesty which he could not answer, he be-
ing allowed to put three queries to him.
The time came for the devil to claim his
own, and he consequently appeared. The
frat question the man asked was con-
cerning theology, to which it caused the
devil no trou BILE to reply. The second he
also answered without hesitation. The
mans fate depended on the third. What
should 1t be? He hesitated and turned
pale, and the cold dew stood on his fore
head, while he shivered with anxiety,
nervousness, terror, and the devil sneered
triumphantly At this juucture, the
mans wife appeared in the room with a
bonnet in her hand. Alarmed at her
husbands condition, she demanded the
cause. When informed, she laughed and
said: "I can PROFOUND question which
the devil himself cannot ans wer. Ask him
which is the front of this bonnet" The
devil gave 1t up and retired in disgust,
and the man was free.

the occasion. Senator Tillman and Gov.
Evans were the orators Of the day for
South Garolsna and they had the oppor-
stnnity of their lives to do good days
work for our old State and to bring q
little honor unto themselves. But, as
was TO- be expected. they failed to do
either. They gave South Carolina anoth-
ses stab IN the back and made asses Of
themselves. Out of all the Governors,
United States Senator's and other distin-
guished citizens Of the United States who
have honored Atlanta with their. pres

They Tested Their Lovers.

NEW YORK, Nov 21.-Two young wo
men of Hampstead, L. l., resorted to the
expedient of the ladies OF old on Monday
night, to test the courage of their lovers.
William Cornelius and Edward Van,
derwater, prominent in the village. were
the victims. The young men were on
their way to see the girls about o'clock
Monday night, and the streets were dark.
When they reached the outskirts Of
Hampstead, Vanderwater noticed two
figures crouching behind tree. He
called the attention of his companion to
what he believed were two highway men,
and the twain were debating on the ad-
visibility of an attack, when suddenly
the figures darted out into the road, be-
hind pair of revolvers. The owners of
the reviewers intercepted the young men
and commanded them to "hslt." The
Josephine Beekman, who had donned
their brothers. clothes. The former
commanded Cornelius and Vanderwater
to throw up their hands, which they
promptly did. Cornelius fell on his
knees and at once produced his watch
and money, at the same time begging
piteously for mercy. After relieving
them of their valuables, the fair high
waymen told their victims to move east
ward.
Both were frightened nearly out OF
their wite, and they made haste to COM
ply with the command. Vanderwater
fell PROSTATE on the doorstep of his home
from exhaustion. After consultation
with Cornelius it was decided to keep the
matter quiet But at 10 O'clock that
night the two young women called and
paid their respects. Cornelius and Van
derwater made all sorts Of excuses for
not keeping their appointments and the
girls pretended to be much offended.
Finally Miss Beekman asked Cornelius
what time it was. The young man said
his watch was being repaired. Wander
water made the excuse that his younger
brother had taken his timepiece.
Wb,n Miss Dugan handed Vanderwa-
ter his valuables and Miss Beekman per-
formed similar service for Cornelius the
young men would not have brought
peck Of potatoes between them if pp: up
at auction. They were struck speechless.
The girls broke off their respe tive en-
gagements on the spot, but to-day 1t was
said a reconciliation had taken place
Miss Beekman explained that the young
men had boasted go much that she and
Miss Dugan thought it time to put their
courage to test. Both girls are good

Gallant old Ineendiary.


When Senator John Sherman entered
the dining room Of the Fifth Avenue Ho-
tel lately he was conducted by the head
waiter to the same table and the same
seat occupied for so many years by his
brother, the General. For the first time
in my life I thought saw a slight re-
:semblsnce to the gallant OLD soldier in
the tall, homely, earnest old Senator.
John Sherman is nearly 73. had an
aged friend from the South as my guest
one morning when the General was
break fasting at the adjoining table. Nat;
,urally I whispered that the MIN who
marched through Georgia and ruined his
plantation was sitting within few feet Of
him. He started.

here? Which is the old rascal?"
Having fastened his eye upon the Gem
eral, he kept it there 80 long that be-
came alarmed. begged him gently to
'desist.
"No, no! Let me look at him. II I
Jump up catch me and hold me tight. I
might 60 over there and whip him. As
long as can sit still there's no danger.
Bnt Lord! wouldn't like to have him

longer. If stay here I'll lick him sure"

An Indian Asks Divorce From Four
Wives.

Yellow Bonnet, Cheyenne Indian OF
some note, has applied for divorce from
four wives at Tologa, Oklahoma Terri
tory. Yellow Bonnet gives as his rea-
sons for such sweeping divorce that he
has recently embraced the Christian re-
ligion and his wives have refused to be-
come Christians. He asks for the custody
of only one of his nineteen children.
It was at first thought it was not neces-:
sary to ask for divorce, as the laws OF
Oklahoma forbid polygamy. A few law
yers held to that idea, but other lawyers
held as be was married to four wives un-
der the tribal laws, recognized partly BY
the Government and before the laws of
Oklahoma existed, be could not get sepa-
ration except by process of the laws now
prevailing. This opinion finally prevailed.
There is some question whether the
four divorces can be made in one, but
that is question the Court must pass on.
The wives will only consent to blanket
divorce, for they are afraid to allow the
cases to be taken up separately for fear
Yellow Bonnet after getting rid of three
of them would keep the fourth. AS there
is intense jealousy existing among them
the attorneys could not persuade them to
consent to single suits. The case will
soon be heared in Court.
