Nothing Slow About Him.

when the swell riding club from the city
went way up into Galoon township to ride
TO nc unds and n t1entally follow the course
or the fox, it arranged with ola Josh Par
kens to provide the fox. He was offered
liberal Cav to attend to this preliminary,
but he declared that he was something of
fox chaser himself and would call it
square If they'd let him zine" in the sport.
There was no good reason to offer for
barring him. and the committee satisfied it's
conscience by telling him to be on land half
an hour later than the time really fixed for
making the cross country dash.
Sure enough, the hounds were giving
tongue, and the ladies' and gentlemen in
their gay attires were just beginning to
form procession which grows from the
bunch in which they start, when old Josh
burst with WhOOp from a thicket on the
side. He was on a raw-boned mount that
had a wonderful gift Of shutting over
ground, and carried a six-foot rifle of the
Olden times. He went after the fox at an
angle that compelled 1t to cover about two
RODS to his one, and before the riders could
prevent he had ended the sport by putting
an ounce of lead through the game
There was some vigorous protests against
this mode Of fox hunting, which put a stop
to the fun just as it commenced, but Josh
only said :"What was them city swells

knocked him over cold afore all them Wo-

this be true what they live upon is a mys-

The scheme proposed last year to drain

and thus ends another Of the countless
projects advanced as a cure for the Jersey
pest. 1t is thought that by digging num-
erous canals the swamp land would be we'll
drained and made valuable for manufacture
Ing purposes and at the same time untenable
for mos luitoes. Apparently the legislature
has not shared the enthusiasm Of the state
engineers, as no appropriation has ever been
made for the preliminary work of surveys.
The dead grass on the swamp section Is be-
ing burned, and the spectacle of long lines
OF fire presented each night to those living
on either side OF Newark bay Is extremely
pretty. 1t Is claimed that the burning over
OF the mosquito territory tends to keep
down the yield by destroying the larvae,
but the averaging Jerseyman is extremely
skeptical and fear the mosquito will ever be
resident of the state.-Cincnnati Tribune.

Hiram Burt, Who Left His Wife in
Wartime, ReclRimS Her.

More than 60 years ago Hiram Burt and
Minnie Kinney were born in Hague N Y
While in their teens they became engaged,
but quarrel arose between the families
and the young lovers were forbidden to
meet. OF course they at once eloped, were
married and settled down in Benson, VT.
When the war came Hiram enlisted in a
New York regiment. His young wife went
to Washington and Joined a hospital corps.
In way each became convinced that
the other had been killed in the war, the
mistake keeping them apart from July,
1864, until January, 1882. In the latter
year Hiram learned that his wife was
living and he at once wrote to her.
Mrs. Burt had heard that her husband had
been killed at Gettysburg and after two
years of waiting she had married Isaac G.,
Knowles, a surgeon in the regular army.
In order that there should be no complica-
lions in the future, legal separation free
ing her from M. R;.rt was secured. In 1876
DR.. Klowles and his wife and their children
went to Rochester, where they resided I'M
til 1891. In that year DR.. Knowles died.
At the close Of the war Hiram Burt re-
ceived an honorable discharge and sought
about for his wife and children. He re-
turned to his former home in Benson VT
and to the village of Hague, on Lake George.
but could find no trace Of them. Then he
went to Casseville, Grant county, Wis.,
where he met Mrs. Margaret Riggs a
widow, with two children. He believed his
wife dead, but In order to be on the safe
side, he secured legal separation from his
first wife, If living, and in 1866 Margaret
Riggs and Hiram Burt were married and
they lived happily together until last March
when the second Mrs. Burt died. 1t was
while in correspondence with his daughter
that Mr.. Burt learned Of the existence of his
first wife; and, after death had removed
all barriers to a second honeymoon, he went
east on his unusual errand.
When a suitable time shall have elansed
after the death Of his second wife Hira m
will bear to Cedar Lake. Iowa, the bride OF
his youth.

THE LANGUAGE OF COLOR.
What the Different Tints Tell to the
Knowing Ones.

There is a language OF color as we'll as OF
flowers. White expresses power, wisdom
purity, candor, chastity. Red is symbolical
of power, passion, riches. Kings ana rulers
on earth have always worn red nantes, and
SO have the executiOners of old, SO that this
color also stands for cruelty and hardness.
Blue denotes fidelity, sweetness, tenderness,
loyalty, a spotless reputation. Aerial dlvlnl-
ties are invariably clad in blue. The an
clients allowed yellow to stand for glory and
fortune. Now it is called the color of in
fidelity and shame Green Is emblematic OF
hope and joy. 1t is the emblem OF youth,
because spring verdure is green. Jealousy
does not have any showing In discussing
this color.
Black stands for sadness, for deception,
for disappointed hopes. Internal deities are
painted black. Legand says that Apollo
turned the raven black because 1t 1t had be-
trayed him. Hence the raven is called the
bird Of misfortune. Pink denotes health,
love- youth, pleasure. Violet is the tint al
lowed faith. Orange means divine inspira-
ton and poetry. The muses. are represented
as draped in orange-colored draperies.
Orange was once the color OF hymen.
Brides in older times wore orange-colored
wells called flammeum. Even now brides
wear orange blossoms on their wedding
