MLinedn on the Lnmn.

The day coach was well-flled with local
passengers, says the Boston Herald and
among them was woman about 40 years
Of age. who said to the conductor as he
took her ticket:
I'm Twin jest outside of Big Fork
"Yes'm.''
i've got 100 acres of land and a good
cabin UP thar
Il see."
MY ole man got drowned in Bar river
last var, and I'm all alone"
'Yes'm."
I'm powerfully busy when I'm home,
but as it'll be three hours before / get
thar yo' might jest do me a favor"
Il will, ma'am. I understand what
you want. 1 think the right sort of man
is up at the front end of the car, and I'll
speak to him"
Five minutes later he came back, fol-
lowed by a man about 40 years old, who
looked like a farmer, and pausing beside
the woman, he said:
This is the man I was speaking
about"
Stranger. what mought be yo'r name?"
asked the woman as she moved along to
make ROOM
"Harkins ma am he replied.
And mime is Stebbins Hev yo' ever
bin jined?"
Yes; but lost her two vars ago. She
was bit by SNAKE"
And my old man was drowned. Would
yo' jine agin?"
'fMebbe. Would yo'?'
Il kinder think 1 would. What's yo'r
aige?"
"Forty-two. What's yo'rs?'
"Jist Al Yesterday. Ar yo' a hard work
in, good tempered MANI"
That's what they calls me. Reckon
yo' kin run a house?"
Fur shore. Amt that ole reptile I'D
thar a preacher"
Looks to be. Shall we be jined?"
IF yo' say So"
The ''old reptile turned out to be a
preacher, and with the train running at
thirty miles an hour and the passengers
standing up in their seats to witness the
ceremony the twain were duly and law
fully made one, and every man kissed the
happy bride.

Evidences of Better Times.

There are evidences all along the line
of the advent of better times. Almost
every day the dispatches tell OF the en-
/ gagement of gold in Europe for export to
| the United States, Of the arrival OF for
! elgn gold at New York, and Of the grad
ual swelling OF the treasury reserve. 1t
is Of interest to note that while gold is
coming to this country silver is being
shipped abroad. The demand for the white
metal is said to be Legitimate" and when
ever there is a legitimate demand for a
commodity the trade in It is likely to be
| healthy.
With the turn of the tide Of gold to these
shores, and the building up of the treas
ury reserve fund, public confidence grad
ually returns, with the effect Of revving
business. Within the past two weeks for
ty or fifty large manufacturing establish
ments in New York, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut and Pennsylvania, employing
several thousand people, have opened
their doors and resumed operations. A
number OF smaller establishments have
done likewise. In the southern section of
the country matters are looking up. Cot
ton is worth something like ST a bale
more than 1t was two years ago, colec-
lions are being fairly well made, and all
lines of business are feeling the good in
fluences Of money turned loose for the
harvesting moving and sale Of crops.
In deep sea shipping, the times are par
ticularly bright. Freight room is in
heavy demand. Full cargo steamers are
scarcely to be had, and vessels at foreign
ports are stralning their machinery to
get back to this country for freghts.
There has been a rise in grain freights
at New York and Gulf ports. and also on
the Pacific coast. fleet of fourteen ships
that had been lying idle at San Francis
co for months have been chartered to
load with wheat for England. The wheat
will have to go all the way around the
Horn England will have to rely upon
the United States almost wholly for her
grain this year. and there is demand for
carriers from California as well as from
the Atlantic coast. How long the demand
for ships will last is, of course, an open
question. With anything like a general
revival of trade in this country. and with
the mills and factories in a position to
compete with those of foreign countries,
as they have recently been able to do un-
der the operations of the Wilson tariff
law, the demand for ships should hold
up well.
The country lacks a heap of being
swamped with politics. 1t is the greatest
country under the sun, and will grow
richer'and greater, whatever may be the
outcome of the election.

A Springfield, KY, dispatch of day or
two ago says: 1.-THE turnpike mob de-
stroyed five toll gates Saturday night,
and three last night. These two raids
leave only Ave toll gates standing in
Washington county" 1t seems that the
so-caIled mob had a real grievance against
the toll roads. The people of Washington
county are horse raisers, and horse
lovers They had not previously
made any great kick over paying tolls
every few miles while hauling their farm
products or indulging in the pleasing pas
time If driving fino horses. They would
have preferred. of course. in common
with all other communities, that the
roads should be free. But, recognizing
that considerable sums had been expend-
ed in improving the roads, and that the
county was hardly II. a position to con-
denim and pay for them, they continued
to pay tolls.
Latterly, and for some time, however,
the owners of the reads neglected to keep
them in good repair. The people were
charged the regular tolls for the privilege
of travelling over roads that were sue
cession of ruts and badly kept corduroy.
They protested, but the protests were not
given proper attention. Finally they be-
came thoroughly angry, and set about
destroying tho toll gates.
There is. a lesson in this Kentucky Incl
dent that is worthy of application by
other toll road owners. 1t teaches that
the interests of the public must be stud
led and conserved by corporations or
there will be trouble. The people do not
object to paying for value received, but
they do object TO being mulcted for even
few cents when they get inadequate
returns
There are very few toll roads in this
state. There should be mono. The public
should own al, roads, and they should
be absolutely free. Toll roads belong to
past period, when good roads We're not
so much a recognized public necessity
as at present The good roads movement
seems to have awakened general interest
in this state. When the legislature comes
to consider what shall be done with the
convicts after the expiration of the pres
ent leases, the plan Of employing them
in the building of modern public highways
will be strongly urged. And along with
the good roads sentiment win be develop
ed a demand for free roads throughout
the state. The best interests Of the farm
ers require that the roads shall be both
good and free.

He Battered the Coin.

The latest swindling game was practised
successfully the other day at Benton,
Pa, says the Troy Times. Two men,
who appeared to be strong silver and gold
advocates, were in the Central depot and
became involved in a heated discussion
The gold man offered to bet a gold double
eagle that If he hammered the coin into
shapeless mass IT would still be worth 500.
He was ostensibly taken up by the silver
advocate, but when It came to selling the
lump to Jeweller Roth the store was clos
ed. James Hagerty, a strong sound mon
ely advocate who stood by and who had
implicit faith in the value OF gold gave
the man $50 for the battered coin. The
two enthusiasts disappeared shortly after
and then 1t was discovered that the metal
left by them was spurious.

A Courteous Amir.

I don't suppose there was ever a more
genteel and courteous affair on the border
than the little fracas that happened be-
tween Deadwood Bill and Long Jack, in
1868, says the Toronto Mail and Empire
There was bad blood between 'em, and
one day they met in Primrose City.
Let's see" unused Bill as he looked the
other over; haven't we bin introduced at
some time"
we hev." was the smiling reply. "If
I'm not way off, you ar the crltter called
Deadwood Bill, and one OF the best shots
in the west"
"Ah-thanks! And I'm takin' 1t thar you
ar The galoot known as Long Jack, VINO
has allus outjumped outhollered and out
fit everything he bucked up agin in this
glorious kentry."
Precisely. Glad to see you Eli"
And glad to meet you, Jack take it
that We ar a gentleman?'
Fur shore"
80 m 1. That makes two gentlemen Of
us. When dye want it to come Off"
"Oh, any time. That is, I'm goin' inter
game of poker purity quick, and may not
be through before 2 o'clock. Kin We wait
till -"
"sartinly. Make it 3 If YOU say So"
mo; will do. It's mighty kind of ye but
one gentleman never keeps another gen
tleman waitin. Call at the Bucktail sa-
loon when yer ready"
At o'clock that afternoon Deadwood
Bill approached the Bucktail saloon with
gun in either hand and sent a man in
to ask Long Jack If he was through with
the game and ready for business.
'Al ready, and bin waitin' fifteen sec
onds fur him. was the reply as Jack stood
up in the middle of the floor and pulled
his guns. Then, turning to the proprietor
of the place, he said:
Sam, l hope this little affair won't put
We out any,"
"Oh, no, no!' replied Sam, Gust go
right ahead and never mind me-"
Sorry to disturb anybody" said Bill to
the crowd of dozen around him at the
door, but I'll get through with this mat
ter as quick as possible"
Then he took running jump and landed
in the saloon, and there was a rapid popi
pop! pop! for sixty seconds. Then the
fusillade ceased, and the smoke lifted to
reveal two dead men lying on the floor.
Boys" said Sam to the men who crowd
ed in, cit was a fair fout and a genteel
fout. They died like regular gentlemen
The crowd stared at the faces of the
dead and nodded approval
And they shall be buried like gentle
men," continued Sam. Here you Chi
nese heather, take this dollar and go out
and dig two holes and plant these gem
tlemen on their backs and give 'em elbow
room to shake hands in the next world!"

The Driver Was Literal.

The manager of one of the Chicago ex-
press companies tells good story, says
the Chicago Post.
we nave big, strong Irishman driv-
ing one of our teams. Yesterday he was
sent with a barrel of flour to the home
OF a woman on the south side. Arrived
there the driver took the barrel on his
back and started up the stairs, his ex-
press book in his coat pocket
Half way up the second flight Of stairs
the lrishman came upon a woman, scrub
bling.
VIII We be afther tellin' me where
Mrs. MCGOWAN lives?" he asked.
- I am Mrs. MCGOWAN said the scrub
ber-a statement which was Irrelevant
and 1 live upstairs
Where will lave this barrel of four?'
asked the driver.
% Take it up as far as youse can, and
thin put it down. I'll attend to it, re-
piled Mrs. MCGOWAN.
$50 he went up, and when there were no
more stairways to conquer he looked about
and saw ladder leading through an open
scuttle to the roof. Up the ladder he
climbed, out on the roof he stepped, and
then finding he could go no higher with
out balloon, he deposited the barrel and
came down.
ION the stairway-though nearly at the
foot-he found the woman again. and she
signed the delivery book Then he went
about his business, but before he got to
the Office Mrs. MCGOWAN was there de-
handing an explanation. The driver was
called in as soon as he returned.
Where did you put that barrel Of
flour?' demanded the official.
" Where she tould me.
Where did you tell him to put 1t,
madam?
y told him to take It up as far as he
could, an
IAN OF did, interrupted the honest
driver. If she'll look on the roof she'll
find it"

The visit to this country OF Mr.. Marshall
Stevens, general manager of the Man
chester Ship Canal Company who was in
Savannah few days ago. is furnishing
the business people in all sections some
food for thought. The Philadelphia Rec
ord has this comment upon his mission
here: "Mr. Stevens has issued circular
letter setting forth the apparent advant-
age, at least, Of shipping direct to Man
chester instead of via Liverpool. He
claims that with no reduction upon in
land freight in America and with an even
sea rate there will be an average saving
on the whole New York cargo Of Z cents
per 100 pounds, or stS6 per ton, in favor OF
Manchester; and Si.i7 per ton saving on
the New Orleans cargo"
