The Preacher, The Dam and
The Fish.

"You must be on your good behavior
this evening, George, for the minister
is to take dinner with u.s." said fourth
ward lady to her worser half as he got
home from his Office in the city last
Thursday.
"What have you for dinner" quer-
led the husband.
"Well, know he is fond of fish, so
/ bought a string of small fish and sew
eral larger ones from the DAM"
"I'm not much at doing the honors
when we have minister at the table"
said George; "but guess we can get
through with it all right"
Half an hour later they were seated
at the table, and a blessing had been
asked by the minister. A little ner-
vously the head of the family began
dishing out the vegetables, and, turn
ing to the guest, said:
"Will you have some of the little
river fish, or would you prefer some of
the dam big fish?'
The warning kick under the table
from his wife was unnecessary. He
knew he had Numbered, and cold
beads of Precipitation started out on
his forehead. II mean" trying to re.
pair the error "will you have some of
the dam river fish or some of the big
fish,"
Worse and more of it. His daugh-
ter slyly pulled his coat tail to bring
him to his senses.
"That lie, would you like some of the
river fish or some of the other dam
fish?'
The deep carnation spreading over
the good lady's face didn't mend mat
tiers bit, and, with gasp, he plung-
ed in once more.
"Aheml Which of the dam fish do
You prefer, anyway"

Snake CoIIs About a Woman.

aurora, Ind, July 27.-Yesterday,
while picFing blackberries in the
woods, Mrs. John Yeager was at
tackled by a snake of the viper spe-
cies. The reptile coiled itself about
her leg and bit the limb three times
before the plucky woman could pull
it loose and hurl it against a tree
with her hands, where it lay stunned
until she escaped to her home. A
physician was summoned immedi
ately, but the bitten limb has swoleI
TO twice it's size, and fears are euter
tanned that she may not recover.

History In Novels.

Save i'll one or two of Coopcrs novels,
says Paul Leicester Ford in Tho Atlantic,
it would be well nigh impossible to find a
romance dealing with Revolutionary his
tory which does not mako the Wing Of
that war the patriot and the Tory the dis-
loyal and usually evil acting man. Yet
the student of history knows that the
loyalists, if II minority, were largely COM
posed of the gentry and educated classes
of the country; wcrc in fact, the equiva-
lent Of what today are termed the better
element, and We're superior in character
to many of the men who opposed them.
No American novelist has vcnturcd to
write of John Hancock and Jonathan
Irumbull as men suspected of smuggling,
or of samuel Adams Us public man who
sought, rs other officials have done more
recently, to vindicutc himself from the
charge Of dofalcation by an appeal to the
ballots of the masses.
Would any American author, striving
TO write popular fiction, dare TO picture
one signer Of the Declaration as selling
the secrets Of his country to the French
ministry for paltry pension, or another
taking advantage of information of the
need Of the continental causo for wheat TO
corner the supply NJ once so far rs he was
nblc! In one case alone have our writer's
dared to draw an Approximately faithful
portrait of IA man who came TO the front
in early Revolutionary days, to describe
tho bounty jumper descrter smugglcr
and drunkard, who nevertheless rose to
high honor in the American cause, and
the reason for this exception is explained
when the name of tho man is given AS
Benedict Arnold.

The Railroad Worm.

The railroad worm has done vast deal
of damage to the apple crop. 1t is often
mentioned, but rarely described, and
many people are not aware what this mis-
chievous creature is or of what his work
consists. Some day they may pick up an
apple beautiful, smooth and bright on the
outside. 1t is cut open, and numerous dark
lines appear in it. These are what may be-
called underground channels of this pest.
1t would seem that tunnel worm" would
be better name for it, as its progress is u
serics of chambers burrowed through the
best part of the apple, sometimes going
around and around the core and often APP
preaching the outside, but only OCCASION
ally touching the skin. 1t is almost inn
possible to find any amount of good in
some of tho specimens examined, the
whole space between core and skin being
traversed by the worm-New York
