The Fall Of the PullwyreS.-The Grcedl'
ness Of this Tribe.
CHAPTET /.

l. Now in the last year of the reign
Of the Wise John, him, "who bore a
hard name even as a Stone hewn out
OF the Mountain" the Chaldeans as
sembled together their Chef Captains
to take counsel after what n
they might choose new rulers to rule
over them.
2. And it came to pass that there
arose a mighty tribe in the land which
sought to take unto themselves all
the great places of power which be-
longed to the people.
3. And the name of this tribe was
written Pullwyres.
4. And there were of the Pullwyres
many brothers, and seventy times
sever and many hundred more who
were of kin unto the brOthers.
s.. Now the Pul!wyres were men of
many cubits in statue and wore
b%reastplates of brass and helmets of
brass.
6. And they had each man a voice
OF mighty compass, in so much that
men might know of their coming when
they were yet afar off. And it was
lkened unto the voice of one crying
unto a mule from the pillow handles
out Of a vast field.
I. Now the Pullwyres were a sore
trial unto the people because that the
people had given unto them at divers
and sundry times, yea unto every man,
places of power and places of profit,
and the more they gave unto them yet
the more were they an hungered. And
their bowels yearned for the earth and
the fullness thereof.
8. So when it was nOised abroad
that the Chief Captains of the people
would gather together in the great
city, the Pullwyres came also with
them upon the highways of earth and
the highways of iron.
8. And they said unto themselves,
10, must we pull every man his wire
and rule the Chief Captains and cap
ture the places of the people first unto
ourselves and then unto such as are of
kin unto us, even unto every man as
there shall be places in the kingdom.
10. These things did they deter
mine in their hearts, and they cast
about to beguile the Chief Captains,
and 10. at the heels of every Chief
Captain was there nigh a score OF
Pullwyres.
II. And they beguiled them, pro-
missing many pleasing things unto
them, and in so much that many of
the Chief Captains forsooK their duty
and went about crying unto him that
was chief of the Pullwyres, $50, here
is the mighty n who shall be our
ruler" And they made obeiSance be-
fore him and said, Remember thou
us when thou CONTEST into thy king
DOM"
IL. And the people murmured
against them, yet did they withhold
their wrath for a time.

whose trail no man knoweth whlthe
he goeth or cometh.
.. And he was ring streaked ant
striped withal, as a Zebra.
10. Now this man was not Of tn
Chief Captains, because the peopl'
had set him aside for his evil ways.
IL. But there was Of the Chief Cap
tains one who had love for him, wht
said unto his fellows, so, here is b,
of the Mighty Nose, let us make hin
also one Of u.s."
-. And behold, three Of his fellows
answered yea" and the other twent,
and four, to their shame be it said
spake not.
Is. So the Chief Captains began u
take counsel together, and it was seer
how the promises Of the Pullwyres
had prevailed with them, for seven
teen OF them cried out with a small.
voice, as though they feared to bt
heard, aud said, LET us change the
law" and cast sleeps eyes at the
Pullwyres.
IA. But the other eleven spakt
boldly against this unclean thing,
sought by the Pullwyres because they
were ubiquitous and could pass free
on the highways of iron.
10. And there was one Of small
statue, who dwelleth in a haven close
unto a brook, but Of a head mighty
in the knowledge wherewith it was
filled, and he said unto them, "'This
thing ye would do is not as it is writ
ten in the law"
10. And there was another also
great in wisdom whose words were as
bitter as gaul, albeit there was an
island of honey in the land from which
he came, and this man spake with
such truth as made eve him of the
Mighty Nose bow down in shame and
seek shelter behind the shadow of his
nose.
II. And yet another, he that dwell
eth between the two cities, wen be
side the sea, where the ships come ant
go, smote the unclean thing hip anC
thigh, and also crucified him Of the
Mighty Nose whom the people Of that
province had cast up eve as a dog its
vomit.
IS. And John, better known as PR.
vate. who spake for another and not
for himself, held the unclean thing uI
and spanked it, and made faces at it,
until those who were there assembled
almost burst asunder with laughter
10. But these things availed not
against the promises of the Pullwyres
and behold five Of the Chief Captains
were sent out to prepare a plan where.
by the great body of the people might
be cheated of their will.
20. And the Pullwyrcs followed
also after these men, laid in wait fol
them, and took hold on their garments
saying unto them, "Behold here is the
chamber Of our brother who haiti
dominion over the highways of iron
Enter We in."
q. And they entered in and made
shut the door and abided therein for /;
brief time.
%. And when they came forth anc
went in again unto the Chief Captains
behold, the scroll which four of then
gave in unto them was machine wri,
and sayored of that which had beer
cut and dried for many days,
%. But the scroll of the other wa.
writ in his own hand and was a.

Greenwood Enterprise.
During the recent visit OF the editor
Of the Enterprise to the Press Conyen-
tion, he chartered a sail boat and went
to the scene Of devastation and death
the track Of the storm which killed
so many persons along the Mississippi
Sound last year. A landing was made
where the loss to life was heaviest,
when a CHASTITY sight met our eyes.
1t was the skeleton Of an almost nude
man, lying in the edge of the water,
around which swan myriads of small
fish, sucking his bones. In one of his
pockets the mouth of a bottle, sealed
in the most approved seafaring style,
was discovered. From this bottle a
manuscript containing the following
queer story, being unlike anything
ever heard Of in this country, was
taken:

CHAPTER ii.
The Devious Ways Of the PulIwyres, and
the Company they Keep.

l. Now there came also to battle
for the P%ullwyres many of lesser note,
bringing with them every nan an
ak.
2. or such was even Nebo, the same
who had aforetime been broken as
chief scribe in Chaldca. And likewise
with Nebo came also one who was a
beast of burden unto him, which was
he who had been chief scribe before
Nebo.
3. And this man was an abomina.
tlon unto the people, even more than
NeDo his master, for it was said that
he was not of the people because he
had been pilot unto their enemies, yet
had he fattened upon the Chaldeans
1or many generations, in so much that
there was not n so aged throughout
all Chaldea who could call to mind
when he had his beginning.
4. But there was a tradition of the
people which vas that his hire was
more than three hundreds of thou.
sands Of shekels and would have paid
the chief ruler for four score and six
years.
(, D. And Nebo sought to make this
man a power unto himself, for saith
nc, rs not his voice like unto the
olast OF a rams horn :"
o. Now when the hour was come
LOT the Chief Captains to assemble in
.he Council Chamber, behold the
rullwyres followed after them, and
matted them in the byways OF the city

CHAPTER III.
The Pride that GOe.h Before q Fall,

l. Now the Pullwyres rcjoicet
greatly over the machine writ scroll
and spakc secretly among themselves
saying, $50, this is the work of ouI
hands, and the fruit also is ours. or {
surety shall we now have a place
every man, even unto the third gener
alton"
2. And Nebo %straightway fell upor
the neck Of him that was a beast o.
burden unto him, and the twain wepI
for joy.
B. But the Chief Captains looked
the n at the other, and there AROSE
a murmur amongst them, and they
spakc each man unto himself saying
what manner of thing is this which
is brought unto us machine writ
Peradventure we have performed
sheol."
4. And straightway many of then
seized upon the machine writ scroll
and rent it asunder, and spat upon it,
and trod 1t under their feet, crying
with a loud voice, Let us follow in
the footsteps of our forefathers.n
5. And there answered fourteen of
them "yea," but Of the others thir.
teen answered may" and one was
without, drinking at the fountain.
q. Now Nebo made great haste and
ran after this man, saying in his
heart, "Of a surety he will answer
nay as before"
I. But when they were come to.
gether into the chamber and the name
or this man was called, 10, he cried
out yea" in such a loud voice as NebC
was brought to his knees by the shock
thereof, walked he no more thereafter
IN the manner of the turkey cock, even
while he standeth still.
8. And he of the Mighty Nose bow.
ed his neck until his nose smote the
floor.
8. And when the Pullwyres saw
what had been done they rent theil
garments, and thick darkness having
fallen on the land, they went Oft and
each sat up with the other, for they
were sick nigh unto death.
10. And on the morrow him who

caused 1t to be made known through
out all Chaldea that he had enough.
