Business tact and unceasing energy
are crowned with success; as is exem-
plified by the immense propositions to
which the Minneapolis Supply Associ-
alton, has attained under very faith
full, and far seeing management of
President McWilliams. Only few
years ago, they began in small quar-
tiers, by faithfully, and honestly serv-
ing their patrons, business increased
to that magnitude, which necessitated
more room, more goods, and more
help, to meet increased demands.
This Supply House, is now located at
21-23 and % North Third Street, where
they have three floors, giving over
forty-two thousand square feet for
business. The second floor is filed
with boots and shoes, clothing, dry
goods and notions. Third floor is de-
voted to hardware and groceries. with
commodious accommodations for re-
ceiving and distributing goods.

Grizzly Bend was the name borno for
many years by that portion of the county
lying along the Sacramento river south
easterly from Chico and embracing the
Parrot ranch and other lands in that vie
entity OF course it is long years since thi
grizzly held possession there as, like thu
Indian, he was forced to give way before
the pioneer settlers of that vicinity
a place, however, so we'll calculated for
the home Of the grizzly could not long DO
without its representative, even if it had
to BIO an animal SOMEWHAT less wild and
more domestic in its habits. Hogs turned
loose in the swamps and lnorasses soon be-
came so wild that it was dangerous for a
person to DO caught unawares by one of
tho patriarchs of the herds that infested
the district
So large and vioi0us had one Of these
fellows become that no was known and
feared by all the residents in that vicinity,
and for his wild nature and ferocious con-
duct generally had become known as ''Old
Grizzly, who it was claimed, was bull
let proof and couldn't be slain. Recently
lie fell victim to a party of hunters who
sought him with tho avowed purpose Of
effeoting his determination.
The bOur was an Immense fellow and
weighed $50 pounds His tusks wero
long, one of them being partly broken Off
The hide was over an inch thick, and
the shields ON the shoulders were = inches
thick. He had never been injured by dogs
or gun before. -Orovllle (Cal.) Mercury.

An irish peasant once complained to tho
Catholic priest Of his parish that somo
person had stolen his best pig and suppli-
Gated his reverence to help him to the dis
covery of the thief. Tho priest promised
his best endeayor, and his inquiries soon
Lending him 70 guess the offender he took
the following amusing method Of bringing
the matter home to him Next sunday
after the service Of the day be called out
with a loud voice, fixing his eye on tho
suspected individual, "Who stole Pat Doc
lans pig9"
There was long pause and no answer.
He did not expect there would be any and
descended from the pulpit without saying
q word more
A second Sunday arriving without the
pig being restored, his reverence, again
looking steadfastly Mt tho stubborn pur-
loiner and throwing deep note OF anger
Into the tone Of his voice, repeated the
question; who stole Pat Doolans pig?
say, who stole Pat Doolans pig?''
Still thoro was no answer, and the ques,
ton was loft as before to work its effect in
secret on the conscience OF the guilty indi-
vidual The hnrdihood Of the offender,
however, exceeded all tho honest priests
calculations.
a third Sunday arrived, and Pat boo
Ian was still without his pig. Some
stronger measures now became necessary.
After service was performed his reverence,
dropping the question Of "Who stolo Pat
Doolan's pig?" but still without directly
accusing any one of theft reproachfully
exclaimed, "Jimmie Doran, Jimmie Do
ran, you trate me with contempt" Jim
mic Doran hung down his head and next
morning the pig was found ut the door Of
Pat Doolan's cabiu,-Household Words.

The last time was at tho fortress OF

through the outer gate, intending, as US.

called Well of Blood, into which an Ar.

q number of ianizaries were thrown when
Mahmoud the Reformer destroyed the
corps. The well is deep and black, and
there is water in it, and probably no bones
at all by this time. In passing through

More had followed, but the stone was
broken of at that place.
There was an odd pathos and pity about
it, as though the unhappy woman, who
ever she had been, buried long ago outside
the walls, had come back, knocking once
more at the gate of the garden of this
wQrid, asking for little Of that kind
ness of which she had found none in this

oouR1lNa A QUAKER MAID.
The Agreement Entered Into by Two Ar
dent Maryland Brothers.

The Agreement Entered Into by Two Ar
dent Maryland Brothers.
The lator Assemblies" of Annapolis,
Marlborough and Chestertewn were hardly
more in vogue" than the yearly meetings
of the eastern shore Quakers. Their ouri-
Gus quaintness, and the picturesque con-
trast they presented to tho radiant attire
and libertine manners of the worlds peo-
pie who minueted and coquetted in
MINOR houses and oaroused and rullled in
oockpits and bowling courts, drew no
manists and English Catholics to the
doors of their sober conventiclo and filed
its loafy approaches with profane chariots
and chairs and praneing steCplochasers
and sidesaddled palfreys. So it happened
that to the yearly meeting, held at Third
Haven, near Talbot Court House, in the
year 1900, there came by opposite ways,
through groups of booths erected by the
graceless and irreverant for tho sale Of
trumpoFy and tlppe, a Quaker maiden
mounted on a pilliOn behind her father,
and two plumod and rapiered cavaliers
gayly curveting The wimpled maid,
whose overcoming charms still bloom in
tradition, was Sarah COvington of Somer-
set, and the prancing cavaliers were the
brothers Edward and Philemon Lloyd,
sons Of Nine. Henrietta Maria. Immedi
ately the pretty lads, with @ sudden equal
passion, loved the wlmpled maid and
yoarned for her, and each conceived cum
ming purpose, proper to tho country and
the time, and shrewdly held his peace
When the meeting was over, the BROTH
ers, each taking his cunning scheme in
hand, mounted and galloped away, taking
different ways, and they rode hard, laugh
ing as they rode for joy Of their boyish ar
tillce. After lingering for awhile in places
remote from the highway where was no
fear of discovery by any chance acquaint-
ance, and so that the slower Quaker folk
might have time TO regain their homes,
they roda on into Somerset and met at
their eharmers gate, First they swore,
then they blushod, and then they laughed
loud and long. Phil said, "Bet her be for
whichever, you or !, did see her first, and
Ned, the elder and the heir, assented.
Then said Phil, "No sooner had 1 taken
my place in the meeting than / beheld the
girl and loved her. 4" And Ned said, -
passed the night before the meeting at the
Peach Blossom farm, and at tho foot OF the
hill, summing into the cato ct the wator
mill, saw this girl on a pillion behind
her father, and they inquired tho way to
the meeting house, and / loved her"
Then Phil rode baok to Talbot, and Ned
dismounted at the gate and led his horse
to the porch Thus 10 1903 Sarah Gov
ington became the wife Of the heir and
mistress Of Wyo House. Sbe it was who
in 1888 built with English" brick the
house of Readbourne in Queen Apne's
county, that typical colonial mansion still |
in excellent preservation and showing an
impnslng pile fitted with materials |
brought over feom England where the
noble hall and THO broad stairway of the |
period confer q characteristic distinction. |

There was one feature Of an entertain
ment eivon 40 prominent club in Chioa-
g. wliol was not down on the bills and
which created not LITTLE excitement
II is thus described by The Record:
There had lately beon taken into the club
a one legged man. He wore an artificial
limb Of improved make and there was
hardly limp in his gait to show that be
had not two sound legs under him, OF
those who attended tho entertainment on
" few knew thas he had a wooden leg
Aate in the evening, when the entertain
ment began to take on a varied hue, a
member arose and said he would do lit
Ito job OF amputation just to please the
crowd He brought the new member up
to tho coffin table and stretched him out
on it. Then lie produced a saw. At this
there was laugh, because that was sup
posed to be the end Of a rather mild joke,
However, the surgeon began TO work, and
as tho teeth Of tie saw began to bury
themselves in the leg some Of tho specta-
tors groaned others were too amazed to
move or speak and few attempted to in
terfere and stop the operation.
The surgeon shook them of and sawed
on until the leg fell off. By that time ev-
cry one began to sec the "joka The sub
ieot had put in an old leg for tho occasion
and didn't mind having it sawed In two.

The approaching marriage of ex-Prosi-
don't Benjamin Harrison recalls to mind
the extreme Difference with which the gem
eral has alwaas regarded the gentler sex.
No moro striking illustration Of this char
~aeteristic could be desired than the manner
In which no conducted himself toward the
defendant in the case Of Nancy z. Glenn,
charged with murder, in which he was
one Of tho attorneys for the prosecution.
TIE time intervening between her arrest
and final discharge was % littlo over eight
years She was charged with having
killed Jacob Young and wife, at Indian-
apoiis, Sept. ~, 1858, and tried four times.
Twice tho jury hung, and twice she was
convicted and sentenced to life imprison-
ment, but each time the supreme court
came to her rescue and reversed the case.
After the second trial tho case camo here
on a change Of venue. Marion county
spent over $50, 600 in the prosecution, but
refused to contribute further after the ver-
dict of guilty rendered at the fourth trial
had been reversed by tho supreme court. [
and the case was dismissed.
General Harrison made the closing ar
gumant for tho state, and continually re-
ferred to Mrs. Glenn as 1.-THE unfortunate
defendant" After he closed, Senator Voor-
hees, whowas essociated with the defense, !
asked him why he had boon so easy in his
remarks against tho defendant. Dan,
he replied, mo matter what she may hayol
done, she is still "a woman, and / won'bl
abuse her." When the jury had retired, |
he went over to Mrs. Glenn, who was cry
ing, and asked her forgiveness for any
thing he said which might have injured
her feelings AS he turned away be said
to Judge Palmer, who was trying the ease,
Judge, I'll never prosecute anotberi
woman" He has kept his word -Leb- /
