HE DIDN'T DRINK.
Politics and Religion Get Mixed q
Little.


A funny little story comes from
Wheeling which is seasoned with a
drop Of politics. Among the Sam
Jones Moundsville pilgrims to Wheel
ing last night, was man who stands
away up in the local councils, and a
minister of the gospel, who we will
explain was only incidentally party
to the political part of the story. AT
ter the arrival at Wheeling the high
muck-a-muck and the minister took
seats in the rotunda Of the Mcclure
house and were pleasantly talking
over the current news, when promi-
nent Ohio county Republican candi-
date for state auditor approached and
reached out his hand to the muck-a-
muck saying: Hello, D., ! did not
know you were in town. Let's go
round and have drink" The muck
a-muck cast his eyes toward the min
lister, then stammered out, mo,
thank you, | don't care to drink y
Then with lightning return of his
composure &c arose aIa introduced
Rev. M to Mr.. State Prominence
Of Wheeling The muck-a-muck lost
drink, and the candidate for audi
tor lost vote Moundsyille Echo.

A Decidedly Novel Claim.

A claim once made on the explorer,
Cameron, in the neighborhood of Ga
boon, Africa, shows the peculiar work,
ings of the native Africans mind.
Some of Cameron's possessions proved
unduly attractive to a native, and he
determined on transferring the owner
ship to himself. He accordingly paid
another native 5000 to procure for him
the coveted goods.
The assistant took the money and did
his best to earn it, but Mr.. Cameron
had peryersely locked up the very arti-
Giles that the fellows employer had set
his heart upon. The man could not car
~ out his bargain, and neither did he
feel that he could part with the money.
Therefore he ran off with it. What
more logical than hat the man who
wal the loser by 5000 should expect the
explorer to make the loss good? This he
assuredly did expect.
He went to Mr.. Cameron and told
him the story, demanding in the first
place the 5000 which he, Cameron, by
locking up his goods, had compelled the
complainant to lose, and, secondly, the
actual price Of the goods themselves,
which, but for these arbitrary measures,
would now have peer in his possession.
1t is not stated that his expectations
were realized. -Watchman.

Laurence Sterne, the writer, was the
victim of the intensest poverty. A little
time before his death, being in a state

Upon arriving, he heard music and

heard the merry laughter, and, gently
replacing the uplifted knocker, retraced
his eteps.
We never feel our miseries SO keenly
as when contrasted with the joys Of
others, and it is only then that we re-

And homeless aear a thousand homes / stood

Another story Of this writer does not
evoke so much sympathy. It was known
that Sterne used his wife very i'll, and
In talking with Garriok day in fine
sentimental style of conjugal love and
fidelity he said, "The husband who be-
haves unkindly to his wife deserves to

head"

quietly, II hope yours is we'll insured. "
