QUICK WIT.

A story is told of a colored
preacher who was holding q
meeting in large tobacco barn
in a rural district in Kentucky
An empty tobacco hogshead was
impressed into service as an
elevation upon which to stand
while delivering his discourse.
Warming up with his subject, he
soon became excited. Throwing
his arms into the air above his
head, and elevating one foot, he
exclaimed' "De righteous
shall rise and de wicked shall
fall" AT the word fall he
brought his foot down vehe-
mently upon the head of the
hogshead, and like q flash it
gave way and he dropped out of
sight, Amid the precipitated
uproar he reached up and grasp
ed the top of the barrel and drew
himself into view, shouting,
"Bress God, dey shall rise
again. "--Ex,

THE DRUNKARD'S SERMON.
OFI:z tie Esv orlsan. E::yrls.)

through the streets of the great
city had swept onward, leaving
the strange and almost appalling
sense of desolation that comes
when the noises of the town are
hushed. The electric lights
flared unnoticed on the corners;
the street cars passed at further
intervals; now and then a night
worker hurried by, h is footsteps
ringing out loud and clear in the
stiffness. In front of a saloon
whose lights shone out bright
and ruddy across the pavement
stood a tramp, unshorn, ragged,
dirty, disgusting He watched
with enVious eyes the men who
passed in and out through the
swinging doors, and then he
turned his eyes toward two
young follows in evening dress
who were coming down the
street toward him. They had
been drinking deeply, and they
stopped before the saloon door
and looked curiously at him.
"By Jove," said one, "think
of having a thirst like that, and
not the price of an extinguisher
in your pocket! Beats old
Tantalus all to pieces, eh?
Liquor. liquor, everywhere, and
not drop to drink.
He ran his hand in his pocket
and proffered the tramp a dime,
but before it could be accepted
the other young fellow inter-
posed.
"Say, he said, ''let's do the
good Samaritan and set Hobo up
to a good drink.
The other hilariously consent
ed, and the tramp slouched into
the saloon at the heels of the two
gllded youths. The barkeeper
setbefore them glasses and
liquors, and with a hand that
shook the tramp poured out a
brimming glass and raised it to
his lips.
"Stop," cried one of the young
men drunkenly, "make us a
speech. 1t is poor liquor that
d o e MT unloosen a mans
tongue"
The tramp hastily swallowed
down the drink, end as the rich
liquor coursed throuph his blood
he Strengthened himself and
stood before them with a grace
and dignity that all his rags and
dirt could not obscure.
"Gentlemen," he said, 81 look

Jus ice Bridgers held an inquest and
two Mexican women who live west of

man; that he was a widower and had
| two children living with one of the
women. The women said they thought
the man was working out of town and
that he must have just returned and
| was on his way home when killed.
Nothing WAS found on the body, but
| the women say he must have had some
money as he had been absent for some
| time.
The case is peculiar and mysterious
