Wyandotte is most desirable To-

anecdote of the late Mr.. Francis Mac

40 years. the recognized leader Of the
Irish bar:

simple case, or he would nctzhave. sent

touching confidence of the neophyte
took my pen and began:
I" I am clearly of opinion
NOW, it so happened that sat in the

siIken Nestor of the Irish bar, a leader
of unfathomable astuteness. This ED
er CHANGED to glance over my shoulder

Sure Enough Tale.

In one of the private schools here In
town there is a small boy who Is al
ways cheerfully miles behind every
body else. He Is not dull boy, but
learning does not appeal to him as be-
ing a thing especially to be desired.
Recently the teacher told the class In
composition that on the next day she
would expect each of them to be able
to write short anecdote. She ex-
planned with great care the meaning of
the word anecdote, and next day when
she called the class up to write all but
the laggard went at once to work.
''Why don't you write an anecdote.
Rob?' asked the teacher.
81 forget what an anecdote Is" said
Rob, undisturbed,
Il explained to you yesterday, Rob,
and you ought to remember" said the
teacher, a bit out Of patience. IAN
anecdote is a tale. Now write"
Rob bent over his slate and, with
much twisting of brow and writing
of lip ground out his task. When the
states were collected, his was at the
very top of the heap. The teacher
picked 1t up. and this is what she read:

Wheeler's charge at the battle OF
Shiloh was said by General Grant to
be one of the most splendid exhibitions
Of human bravery he had ever witness
ed, and a feat which reused admira-
ton among both armies was when the
intrepid little general accomplished the
destruction of Rosecrans' provision
train after the battle Of Chickamauga.
On Dec. 80, 1868, General Wheeler
attempted and successfully carried out
one of the most daring, perilous and
important duties ever assigned a cav
airy commander. He crossed the Ten
nessee river in the face of division of
cavalry under General George Crook,
drove back and worsted the troops that
guarded the Federal trains Of 900
mules and 1000 wagons and captured
the whole, with 1900 prisoners.
While he was thus engaged Rose
Grams cavalry, 5000 streng, swept
down upon the Georgians. The latter
charged and repulsed the northerners,
capturing the forts at McMinnville,
Tenn, with 600 prisoners and great
stores; capturing the forts and destroy
ing the bridges near Murfreesboro, and
then, as full of fight as at the begin
ming of the engagement, they turned
and put to rout General Hooker and
the Eleventh and Twelfth corps that
came riding down at the moment to re-
enforce the Yankees.-Chicago Journal.

A Faithful Dog.

Many hundred years ago there lived
at Athens a dog whose faithfulness
has caused him to be mentioned In
history, and In the Greeian city his
story is often repeated.
The dog guarded one of the heather
temples at Athens. One night thief
stole into this building and carried off
some Of the most valuable treasures.
The dog vainly barked his loudest to
frighten the thief and to rouse the
keepers as the man went off with the
Jewels. But the faithful dog did not
mean to lose sight of the rascal, and
all through the night he followed him.
BY daybreak the poor animal had be-
come very weary, but still he kept the
rebber in sight The latter tried to
feed him, and as he made friends with
the passersby he took it from them in
stead. Whenever the thief stopped to
rest the dog remained near him, and
soon report went through the coun-
try of the animals strange behavior.
The keepers of the temple, hearing
the story. went in search of the dog,
and they found him still at the heels
Of the thief at town called Cronyon.
The robber was arrested, taken back
to Athens and there punished. The
Judges were so pleased with the dogs
sagacity and faithfulness that they or
dered him to be fed every day for the
rest of his life at the public expense.
