Valuable Hounds Disappear During a
Hunting Trip In New
jersey.

roriaer President Cleveland lost two
valuable hounds while cunning in Gran
bury, n. j.. on Thursday. The citizens
of Cranbury are searching the coun-
try for the missing hounds.
Much to the surprise OF the residen is
Il Cranbury. Mr.. Cleveland accepted
mn invitation from Farmer Robbins last
year to shoot rabbits on his farm Rob-
bins told his ncighbors that he had
asked the former president over to his
place, md they laughed at him. When
Mr.. Cleveland drove over one day be-
hind his spick and span team lie ere
ated sensation among the rustics,
who were all enyious of the honor con-
ferred upon Farmer Robbins.
Farmer Robbins invited Mr.. Cleveland
to come over again this year on the
opening day of the season, Thursday.
He asked several prominent citizens of
the village to enjoy a days sport with
Mr.. Cleveland. 1t stormed so severely
that the guest OF honor was not ex-
pected, but he came, nevertheless. The
citizens, however. were not on hand.
Farmer Robbins and his son started
out with their distinguished guest
and were enjoying themselves slaugh-
tering rabbits when Mr.. Clevelands
prize hounds disappeared. That end
I'd the days sport.

The Chimney Smoked.

In the designing and construction
of houses it has always been the cs-
pecial fad Of Mr.. Willis Polk, architect,
TO build roomy fireplace, where great
logs can burn, and he has always
plumed himself on the fact that the
freplaces never fail to draw.
When he erected his bachelor bunga'
low at Tiburon the fireplace was the
chief pride and glory Of the establish
ment. He told his friends about the
solid comfort he enjoyed sitting be-
fore the blazing logs, and, to still
further arouse their envy, Polk one
night gave a party.
To his infinite chagrin, the chimney
smoked abominabiy, the fire wouldn't
draw. the logs would not burn, aud
the bungalow was filled to sitting. Af-
ter they had thoroughly guyed the
disconsolate Willis, the dlsgusted
guests went home TO cough 1t of.
Next day Polk made q careful ex-
animation of chimney and hearth,
satisfied himself that everything was
now as it should be and then gave
another party to efface the memory
of the former fiasco. He made elab-
crate preparations for this festivity
and arranged to give his guests q
warm reception.
That abominable chimney again
spoiled it all. 1t smoked and smoked.
Willis was in despair, but the next day
Il was all right again. At intervals
after that Polk entertained friends,
and he fin 'ly found that the fireplace
never drew when he had company. al
though at other times 1t worked per
'fectly. So he set little trap, which
finally solved the puzzle. 1t was lit
tie cracker box, p'R'ed over the top
of the chimney. which caused all the
trouble.
Some Of his friends had thus thor
,oughly covered up the chimney every
time the young architect had planned
an entertainment.-San Francisco Let
