Dear Editor of THE BEE: Sometimes when you want scopy" and something
 interesting for the readers of Newtown
 matters in connection with the aNew-
 town Chronicle" and BEE, when both
 papers were struggling for existence,
 you can "set up" this: We met the
 whilom editor of the Chronicle at the
 Central dinner table few days since
 and talked over the time when he tried
 hard to establish & democratic paper
 here. He had the support of our ever esteemed Father McCartan and the democrats generally. THE BEE was bought and sold" three or four times
 while Madigan was hard at work to get upon solid ground. 'sBut when," said MT Madigan, ''I was confronted by Reu- ben H. Smith I knew was sin the soup.- My efforts now were only to dispose of the Chronicle to THE BEE, which was soon successful. 1.-The running of the Chronicle said MT Madigan, "when was not far out of my teens, and with an uncertain assistant, left me to write editorials and supervise every, thing. l was running behind and dis gusted with myself that should under take to establish another paper in S country town" ''oh yes,'' he said, s.I remember being assaulted for publishing your poetical effusion, the sElopement or Ride, was it?" Well,a "loving couple" had run away into York State, and drove "white horse" The author of the ''Ride" knew nothing of their ride nor marriage but happened to describe it nearly exactly. Here is the cause of the assault:

A CARD FROM A. G. BAKER.

Our furniture business in Hawleyville is now so well known far and near that we feel that we may safely for a time at least cut down our advertising expenses. An 'ad" to be ofvalue should be changed every week. We are too busy to do it, besides we heard a man say the other day that that furniture man at Hawleyville who advertises SO much must be 8 fool (queer what big game one out gum. Another more charitable friend remarked to us conndentialiy in an of-hand way that writing sads' out Of business hours is liable to lead to softening Of the brain, mind you he didn't say we had got 1t, and he looked away over into the next county when he said 1t, but. well we are not slow to take q hint if 1t is a blind one. It would be perfect ly awful If we should really get 1t {this soften ing disease we mean) and have 1t get real deeply seated before we kn sw 1t or before we had time to vaccfnate so we are going to stop rightof short, give up our advertising col umps for while pocket the money that would otherwise go into the coffeTs of these grnsping newspaper monopolists, eat brain hardening food and attend strictly to business i. g., selling furniture at Hawleyville.
 Now for Heavens sake don't tell everybody what you think, just remember how sensitive we are to adverse criticism and tell then that we are simply boycotting and playing Debs with the newspapers for a while, don't toll them we are tired or waiting for anything to harden. be compassionate, be just. be con. siderSte, be charitable, be liberal min ded one with another and last of all BE SURE AND COME TO HAWLEYVILLE before you buy your furniture. Please commit this last sen tence to memory and then pin it in your hat

THE RIDE.

saw two lovers riding, In the early morning sun. On shiloh's hill ''they drove to kill" Anxious to be one; The parson lived SO far away, A The horse must speef the live-long day. The buzzing wheels flew fast We heard the long whip snap; We saw the sips of their sweet lips We envy such a chap For Maggie's handsome face was glad, While he in turn piled well the sad-
 Away! awayl on they sped,
 And OCT the State line passed
 The horse Uas zEbi.1- cd nIgnJ,
 They found themselves at last;
 The parson was not far away,
 But would the horse hold out the day?
 The lovers still were strong.
 Impelled by love alone,
 Bat could the steed endure such speeds He reeled-and he was goneI
 Fell headlong on the road to Trov-
 Then Maggle's arms enclosed her boy.
 And pulling him a-down-
 She sighed, Poor horsei now rest
 While we fly on-for the day is gone But we will soon be blest; Hark fathers flying steeds arc herei But Johnny, you are now more deari" And they ran on as fleet of Foot as Hector was at Troy; But horses feet were yet more fleet Than guilty gIrl or boy
 And so they showed their common sense
 sy hining meath a shadowing fence.
 The fathers nursing wrath. Passei all unbeeded by, While Johnny's arms enclosed the charms. That prompted him to fly And when the clat'ring hoofs were gone. They sallied forth. and wandered on. Now conscience gan to chide, And Johnny shed some tears, But Maggie's heart, brave at the start, Was older by i've years; | And love possessed her loving soul, To still press on and reach the goal
 They found the parson ready, And they pledged themselves fore Cod Each heart to heart. and ne'er to part, Till death shall sway his rod
 And then they found-the fathers will,
 Would take them back to shiloh,s hill. -rG. ". B.
