Grim Highlander.

My father had no end of anecdotes about our ancestors, parts of which I remember, though I was only a schoolroom child of under Il when heard him relating them. I was, however, old enough to feel keenly interested in them. One story that impressed me very much was related to account for the origin of the Clan Maointyre. 4 party of Macdonells on one occasion were out in boat when a knot of wood sprang' out, causing 8 serious leak, whereupon one of the party stuck in his finger to fill the hole and then cut it of with his dirk, thus saving the life of the whole party. From this oircum- stance his descendants were called the Macintyres. or sons of the car penter.
 Another story which I heard my father tell relates to the bloody hand which appears in our coat of arms. 4 doubt having arisen as to which of two brothers certain estate be- longed, it was agreed that he whose flesh and blood should first touch the property was to be regarded as the rightful owner. Accordingly the two young men started in two boats for the land in question. One of them, seeing that he was losing the race, when near the shore pulled out his dirk, cut off his hand and threw it on land, thus establishing his right to the property, as his flesh and blood had touched it first Blackwood's Magazine.

4 Young Man From Phenix In JAil for
 Uttering Worthless Cheeks.

4 Young Man From Phenix in Jail for
 Uttering Worthless Checks.
 l.. H. Orr, an expert penman from Phenix, came up with the crowd to celebrate the Fourth in Prescott, accompanied by his wife, a hand some brunette.
 Now, Mir. Orr's expertness as a penman does not consist so much in the beauty of his chirography as in the facility with which he can han dle his pen in drawing checks. He spent several days, or perhaps weeks, behind the bars in Phenix for draw ing a check upon a bank in which he had DO deposit. During his in- generation, his wife remained de- voted to him, and finally succeeded in getting the laws clutches un- loosened from him, and freeing him from jail.
 He thought the game might be successfully played in Prescott, and few days ago he drew a check on the Phenix National Bank for $50, which he cashed at the Cabinet saloon. When the check was pre- sented for payment, it was repu- diated by the bank, and Orr was arrested. He was brought before Justice Moore to-day and applied to have his case continued until Thurs day at 2 p. m., hoping, in the mean time, to be able to hear from his father, who is said to be banker in Ohio. It is given out also that the young man is nephew of Senator Brice. of Ohio.

Railroad distances Which Put Themselves
 More Tn Evidence Every Day.
 'The cur hog is moro and more in evidence every day, said a car con- duotor recently. ''I have counted six different varieties of the breed in week l used to be a raiser of stock in more prosperous days, and I'm good judge. The most con- mon sort is that of the fellow who occupies moro room than be needs, never sees that he could make room for anybody and is evidently the same when he is at home. I'll bet he's the man who gets the morning paper first, reads it to himself, gives no one else a chance and carries it down town in his pocket
 Then there's the fellow who crosses his legs, and when any one seeks to pass simply turns his foot edgeways so that twice as much dirt is rubbed off on a woman s dress and he gets half shine for nothing. If a bigger man stands still and glares at him, he will unfold his legs, but only then. This is the same animal who likes to stretch out in cross seats on the L and clean his boots on the edge of the seat.
 "The third of the species is less bold than his brothers. He is the chap who, when some one gets up, leaving a seat vacant, although there's a tired woman maybe next to him, plumps into the vacant spot for she had her back turned and the opportunity was, and always is, in fact, never neglected by him.
 'The fourth sort is the rooster who reads another man 's paper over his shoulder. saw one the other day who was so interested in one article that he didn't see that the man who held the paper was fur lively and amusedly regarding him. The fact was brought to his atten- ton, however, by the paper being pushed in front of his face and then withdrawn, and when he looked up a dozen smiling faces made his turn fairly sallow.
 'The fifth is really only a pig. He's not grown, but thinks he is. His nose-that's not the word, but it will do-is retrousse, and the lit tie bristles under it are carefully cared for. He likes to crowd close to pretty girl and stare at her with such a yearning look. If he sits op- posite her, his eyes rarely wander from hers. l saw one young woman stare at the feet of one of that sort for five minutes. He pulled them back and fidgeted them about final ly resting on his toes. She kept right on staring, and he became very uncomfortable I'm told that's a sure remedy. He finally got out on the platform.
 'The last of the railroad hogs I know, although there may be others, is the one who opens his newspaper So as to shut out the view of those on either side of him. If he'd fold it down the center of the page-but, pshaw, he won't" - New York World.
