The brewing and liquor selling
interests of Indiana have com
bined for the overthrow of the
Nicholson law, and have really or
ganized liquor party, which has
caused feeling throughout the
state among the anti-liquor people
that they must unite against the
liquor element.

been reported that Elisha's boys were GO
ing to make a regular spread. Every one
about, excepting the Bunkers, had been
invited in a general way, and, while await
ing darkness, confectionery, fruit, ice
cream and lemonade were served in gener-
Gus quantities.
Elisha was everywhere, and he had never
,, before seemed SO jolly and sociable He
! appeared TO be enjoying everything like
boy, and the people who had known him
as rather quiet, reserved and stern man
were astonished at his manner.
At length the time for the display of
fireworks arrived, and the visitors assem-
bled at the back of the house, where they
could sit on grassy slope and enjoy the
spectacle. The boys had cayried the box Of
fireworks down near the hoodoo well,
where everything had been prepared for
! sending them oil.
The first rocket sailed into the air with
q graceful curve, a cheer breaking from
the lips of the spectators as it burst and
sent forth many colorsd lis that !loated

| Elisha, who had slipped away few mo-
ments before, came back and sat down
| Just in time to be on hand when the an
! vils which he had loaded with an extra
heavy charge, gave roar that shook the
| ground and broke dozen panes Of glass in
| the windows of the house.
| "Hurrah!" cried the old farmer, in
genuine delight, as he heard the jingle Of
the glass as it ratified from his windows,
accompanied by little screams Of terror
from the women and girls in the party

Up into the sky hissed another rocket,
and yet another, and then No one could

Sizing and spluttering right into the well.
The next instant column of fire shot up
ward from the mouth of the well with a
rushing sound, and the invited spectators
clapped their hands with delight, for they
fancied Efsna had prepared an amazing
and novel surprise for them.
The farmer himself however, sat staring
at this unexpected display In utter bewil-
derment, and he did not arouse himself
until one Of his boys, who came running uI
from the field, shook him by the shoulder,

If she had ever been as he described her,
or whether it was but some idea which
he carried in his brain. The person
upon whom looked was tall, it is true,
but she was thick and shapeless, with
ruddy, full blown face and a skirt
grotesquely gathered up. There was
green ribbon in her hat which Jared

THE END.
A Curious Find.

Mr.. Bryce, we'll known as publisher
in Glasgow, relates how the late Mr..
Crowther of Manchester, famous col
lector Of rare books, asked him to re-
publish an old seventeenth century vol
ume called Essays on Several Subjects,
written by Sir Thomas Pope Blount,
London, 1891" The copy which Mr.
Crowther had was SO rare that he be-
lieved only two others were in existence
--one in the British museum and the
other in the Bodleian library. "a
COPY, :" he wrote, is Of priceless value"
and he gave minute instructions as to
the care which must be taken of that
which he was sending. Thinking, how
ever, that Mr.. Crowther might be mis-
taken as to the exceeding scarcity of
the book, Mr.. Bryce advertised, and
after the lapse of several weeks he re-
ceived notice that one could be had for
Is. cd.
When the volume came, he hurried
to compare 1t with that of Mr.. Crow
ther, which he had in his safe, and, to his
delight, he found 1t equally perfect, ex-
cept that the contents pages were want
ing. On further examination he discov-
cred that there were duplicate contents
pages in Mr.. Crowther's copy. So that
the mistake made by the binder of these
two volumes in 1851 was now rectifed
by the chance coming together Of the
two once more-the copy in which the
contents pages had been omitted and the
copy in which the missing pages had
been placed ----Good Words.
