with him. but that all the seeds should
go to the old man. In cutting up the
melon some of the seeds fell on the whisky
soaked ground, and no sooner had they
touched il than each and every one of
them began to do the greatest stunts in
tumbling l ever witnessed. Well, that
just made us all wild for the seeds. but
Johnson had about all of them In a big
bag, and only about three of us were able
TO get any. and no kind of threats, plead
ings OF brides would make him give up.
With the end OF the melon all the city peo-
pie began to leave. and the boom kinder
left the town. There was nothing else
talked about for months but Johnson s
melon, and he was elected Mayor and was
pointed out TO all the new drummers who
struck town.
The incident rather died out until the
next spring. when johnson built a ten
foot board fence all around a ten-acre lot
and posted ii all over with signs about
trespassery. We just knew what that
meant and it wasn't three days before
all the boards in the county had been
bought up and on every farm YOU see
a fenced lot, and knew right off what was
behind that fence. That spring there was
suth call for whisky that the price just
doubled and the whole county smeled like
a mash pot.
ne men IOlkS just seemed to dlSap-
pear, and when you did meet with one he
just pulled his hat down and pretended he
didn't see you. 1t just nearly disrupted
the whole community. Every single one
of them was 50 afraid that his neighbor
was going to get a little ahead of him
that people who had been friends for
twenty years got so they didn't speak
and each blamed the other for trying to
take the bread out of their mouths
Farming went to the dogs, and there
wasn't enough raised to feed the chick
ems. And when melon time came you'd
have thought that the people were all
crazy. Something had surely gone wrong
for every mothers son of them had Just a
field of ordinary everyday watermelons
They were such a drug on the market
that no one would cart them off, to say
nothing bout buying them. All this time
johnson had kept pretty quiet but one
day he came into town with half a dozen
big melons. Now, would you believe it?
Every one of those melons when left alone
would roll and tumble around Just like
they were possessed. You bet those mel
ons were bought up quicker than scat at
500 each, and for one week the whole town
was melon drunk
To sum up the whole affair, johnson
seems to be about the only one who can
raise those melons He has become rich
and has made the town rich We have got
dozen hotels now, but still We are crowd
ed. We are getting people from all over
who want to try a melon spree, and If
the temperance people don't dig up some
old law covering the case, we will all be
milllonaires before five years"

AT THE ENGLISH LEGATION.
Lady MncdonaId's Home I'm Peltn.
Her Chinese Servants.

From the New York Tribune.
The English legation is one of the most
important in Pekin. It stands in the midst
Of nearly six acres of land, the fine trees
affording plenty OF shade in summer while
in the skating season the lawn tennis
ground at the club not far off is flooded
and the members of the legation staff dis
port themselves daily on the ice, untrou-
bled by fears of sudden thaw. The min
ister's own house Is built in Chinese fash
ion, having formerly belonged to a native
prince, yet the European furniture and the
thoroughly English air which Lady Mac
donald has contrived TO sive that one is
almost beyond the bounds of civiiza ton
The reception rooms-all on the ground
hoor-are large, lofty and handsomely pan
eled with oak. the richly decorated cell
ings being respondent with huge green
and gold dragons. Lady Macdonald's bou-
doir is a cosy room. with it's deep low
chairs and sofa, while above the taste
fully draped mantelpiete a mirror reflects
some favorite pictures and Chinese en-
broideres. other native curios collected by
her being also in evidence with many
photographs of friends. A piano is a con-
spicuous object. In short the house Is
completely furnished in English style ma
tive work being merely used for adorn-
ceedingly popular in Pekin, and. despite
the comparatively small European popu-
lation Speaking from a social point of
view, she entertains constantly. and has
a succession of visitors from far and near
staying at the legation. Winter, however
Is always the most sociable time with Sir
Claude and Lady Macdonald, as they Then
give frequent dinner parties, with men de-
Cidedly IN the majority. Nor are outdoor
&c ftr,lg
year races are held, at which capital sport
is the order.
Lady Macdonald is present at all social
gatherings, of course, and between these
and the numerous duties associated with
her prominent position she never finds
time hanging heavily on her hands Nat
uraly active, she manages her household
herself. She thinks that the Chinese
make good servants There are few ma rts
of the world of which she has not had
at least some slight personal experience
from the Persian Gulf to West Africa
where with Characteristic pluck she ac-
companied Sir Claude when he was con-
sui general at Old Calabar-a most IN
healthy town. Her years at the British le-
cation in Pekin are the longest time she
has resided In any house.
There is one American woman in China
who has no fears for her safety. IL is
Mrs. Annette Thompson Mills, famous as
the founder and teacher of the only school
for deaf mutes in all China. Before her
marriage TO Dr. Mills a missionary ply
stefan, Annette Thompson was teacher IN
the deaf mute institute at Rochester n.
Y, and when she accompanied her hus-
band to China she began TO work imme-
diately for the relief Of the same class
there.
In the Flowery Kingdom the deaf mutes
were despsed and almost disowned by
their families, and were sent out to sit ~
the roadside and beg Mrs. Mills took sew
eral Of these beggars into her own home

at Che Foo and began to teach them what
was possible. Without knowledge of the
Chinese language she was obliged 10 use
English in conveying oral lessons for a
time, but soon acquired a sufficient Chi
nese vocabulary to impart instruction in
their own tongue. Her success was so
great that the families of her pupils look
ed upon her with unbounded reverence,
and new applicants constantly appeared.
She invented a Chinese manual alpha
bet, i'm addition to teaching use of the vo-
cal organs, and trained the native teacher
to assist her The work increased so that.
through contributions from Great Britain,
France and other countries a large build
ing was erected for the school, with dor
mitories for the pupils and apartments for
Mrs Mills, now a widow, and her sons.
A stepson, who was born in China is now
in this country, and says that Mrs. Mills
is SO beloved that she would be safe in
the most dangerous outbreak of fanatic
opposition to foreigners.

AN ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY.
Illinois Central Train Thrown From
the Track.

Louisville, July 18.-Train No 102 of the
Illinois Central left the rails near Hall
side, rs miles from Louisville, at 1880
O'Clock this afternoon and the road Off
Gals are inclined TO believe that il was
the result of another attempt at train
robbery. Luckily, only the engine and
mail coach left the track, and as the train
was not running at a high rate OF speed
no one was injured.
A sardine can filed with rocks had been
placed on the track. and when the engine
struck it 1t ran into the ditch.
John Devinney was at the throttle. and
after applying the airbrake he jumped.
The engine was badly damaged, and car
ried with it the mall car, which Jared even
worse. The front end was knocked in
and mail was strewn all over the ground.
The car was pulled to Central City and
sidetracked.
The only damage resulting to the pas
sengers was a shake-up.
