FRANK IlsSSIOtN'S ABLUTIONS.
The Wayfarer has never had the
pleasure of the acquaintance of Frank
qIession, OF Second and Van Buren,
streets, but he has heard OF him occa-
sionally, and newer to his detriment
Frank drives a wagon for Owen J.
Hession during the week and rides a
wheel on Sunday, so that, it viii be
sees, his time is pretty wen taken up.
On Sunday he and Homer Friet,
young friend, defied Old Sol and went
out for ride. They rode through Els
mere and Marshallton to BrandywinD
Springs. AFTER enjoying the shade and
beauties OF Richard w. Crooks domain,
they started home. Across the New
Road" ait the second bridge, wagon
was standing, leaying only about four
feet OF space between Vt and a ditch
filled with water and lined with maud.
Hesslon has always been known as a
reckless sort OF fellow, hence 1t became
him to make dash between the wagon
and the ditch. He says THAT the man
who wrote that little piece about for
une favorlng the brave" lied, and the
truth was not in him. The front wheel
struck stone. and Hession, with a
COmanche Death song in his throat,
plunged headlong into the compound OF
mmd and water. lie said "Uh!" but no
body heard him. When he got out he
discovered that his white shirt was a
sight. It would never do to return to
town ih THAT condition, for there were
many "lddders" in the neighbOrho5d
of Second and Van Buren streets and
they would make his life misery for
days to come. AT Union Park there
was a clear, limpid brook, He rode
TO It, removed his Clothes, washed
them, hung them up to dry, and th-n
washed himself AT the conclusion ci
his ablutions the brook was not ai
clear and limpid as usual. First went
ON and left Hession there, and when
the unfortunate young man reached
home Is one OF the many mysteries
which are locked in the breasts OF un.
willing Witnesses.
SHE SURPRISED HER HUSBAND
A bright young m2tron Of this towl
was one of the many persons intense,,
interested in the case Of Senator Ken
ney, and The outcome of the de,ibera
tions Of the jury. just before the con
clusion OF the case she went to Oceai
Grove, and there one Of her occupa
tdons was TO search the newspapers Il
quest of Kenney news.
She returned home just about th
time the jury was discharged. AT Broay
street station she told her husband sh
intended to ask "the bureau Of infor
nation" if the Kenney jury had reach
ed verdict. The man laughed at her
telling her it was a ridiculous thin
to do, as the information emanatin
from the bureau related to railroa
matters only. His ridicule seemed bu
TO strengthen her determination, an.
approaching the bureau man with he
pleasantest smiie, asked il he could be,
her whether the Kenney jury had n.
turned a verdict.
''The jury was unable to agree an
has been discharged" returned tn
obliging and all-wise official.
Cordially thanking him, the youn
matron returned TO her husband. VIII
had refused to go near the bureau wit
her and he has yet to hear the last {
the matter.
