DEATH ON A PALE HORSE.
How Gen. Houston Ordered Out the

How Gen. Houston Ordered Out the
Texan Army to Capture n Ghost.
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
One night in January, in the year 1896,
two or three young men. while at a farm
house not far from Old Washington, Texas,
manufactured and turned loose upon the
unsuspecting citizens of the town ghost
that cost one negro the loss of a leg, and
caused the president of the republic to
order out the army, creating the greatest
CONSERVATION a ghost ever caused on earth.
These young men, one Of whom is yet liv-
ing, were spending the night with an old
doctor of the name of Ryan, who resided
on his plantation, about two miles from the
capital. They had been hunting during the
day, and after supper while smoking in
the Doctors office, which was small. iso-
lated building, located in corner of the
'front.' yard, they noticed a skeleton In an
open closet. 1t was the skeleton of q very
large man and perfectly articulated. The
night was a little cold, and one of them
remarked, as he lit a cigar and seated him.

Now, If we had a jug Of Bourbon, we

Well. suppose we send after bottle?'
said another.
To the objection that they had no one to
send, George Wilson said:

The daredevil, never thinking as to the
consequences wroteIa short note to his
friend and placed 1t in a1, envelope. The
letter was sealed and addressed to Mr..
Campbell. and then tied to the bony skele-
tons fingers They Ihen securely fastened
the skeleton to the tWell scinched Spanish
saddle. The old horse did pot much like the
locks of his rider, ana when he was turned

THE GROW AND THE PITCHER.


The late Mr.. Esop, who used to
write small, pertinent tracts with
large, aggressive morals, for the edi-
fication alike of the ancient Greeks
and the modern school boys, is re-
sponsIble for this anecfote.
A certain Grow, who had been
haranguing a ward caucus all the
evening, had contracted large, i'm
Fortunate thirst.
AS he was looking about to find
SONS means OF relieving himself Of
this same thirst, he discovered
pitcher which contained water
But the pitcher WAS very large, and
the quantity of water it contained
was small, and reposed at the very
bottom of the pitcher.
For anatomical reasons, the crow
could not dip his bill into the water,
and drink from the pitcher as it was.
Nor was there any use in trying to
pour out the water, for tbs crow could
not lit the pitcher.
Besides, he had no cup
But he was wise crow, and also
persistent, and he Immediately re-
solved himself into committee Of the
whole on ways and means and Matched
out solution of the problem.
He picked pebble from many lying
around and dropped it into the pit
cher.
He kept on dropping pebble after
pebble into the pitcher, until the
water approached near enough to the
top for him to drink, and he saked
his thirst with ease.
Moral: 1t is continuous advertising
that pays. If the crow had stopped
after one insertion, merely because he
could not see any results, he would be
thirsty yet,-CharIes Austin Bates.
