scenes of the day and locality from which
ii is taken as to read more like history.
The common places of existence in north
ern New York in the forties and fifties are
so woven into charming story as to make
the tale appear more as a reality than as
well-written bit of fiction. 1t is a book
of many sides. The curious tales of Uncle
Eb, with which he was want to amuSe his
little orphaned nephew. is a side that APP
peals to the children. The descriptions of
the methods of living, of the incidents
which brought to the hardy sons of harder
pioneers their Joys and sorrows is of in

growth, while Uncle Eb, with his quaint
sayings and his good American sense is as
clever characterization as it would be
possible to find
The following extract from the book de-
picts the scenes at the county fairs of that
time and locality, and at the same time
gives the reader glimpse of Uncle Eb:
AIE in August Uncle Eb and |
l. took our Black Hawk stallion to
the fair in Hillsborough and showed
him for prize. He was fit for the
eye of king when we had finished
grooming him, that morning, and led
him out, rearing in play, his eyes
flashing from under his broad plume,
so that all might have last look
at him. His arched neck and slim
barrel glowed like satin as the sun
light fell upon him. His black name
flew, he shook the ground with his
hoofs playing at the halter's end. He
hated a harness, and once in it lost
half his conceit. But he was vainest
of all things in PARKWAY when we
drove off with him that morning.
All roads led to Hillsborough fair
time. Up and down the long hills we
went on a stiff jog, passing lumber

was entitled 'Iago," and the produc-
tion was declared tc be a masterpiece.
He graduated in 1879, and six months
later passed. an examination for ad
mission to the bar. In the fall of 1880
he was nominated and elected district
attorney of Dane county, and was re-
nominated and reelected in 1882. In
1854, when only 80 years old, he was
elected to represent the Third Wiscon-
sin district in congress, being the
youngest man in the Forty-ninth con-
gress. He was three times renominat-
ed by acclamation, being reelected
twice, but failing of the third.
AS member of the committee on
ways and means he drafted the tariff
schedules on farm products, tobacco,
linen and silks, and he was member
of the subcommittee which framed the
iron and steel schedule.
Upon his retirement from congress
in $780, Mr.. La Toilette reentered upon
the practice of his profession at Mad
ison, as senior member of the firm of
La Toilette, Harper, Roe & thinner
man. This partnership was dissolved
in 1894, and he has since practiced
alone. He was offered the comptroller
ship of the treasury by President Nc
Kinley. soon after his Inauguration,
but declined it.
Mr.. La Toilette was married to Miss
Belle Case, a classmate at the univer-
sity, in 1880, and his family consists of
one daughter and two sons.

ers, but they, believing that they were
invulnerable to foreign bullets in time
of war, laughed at each report of the
gun. Realizing that their supersti-
ton made them fearless he found it
his duty to shoot into the crowd.
This had the desired effect, and be-
fore another attack the missionaries
had sufficient time to escape over the
walls of the compound, and after sew
eral hours reached the German mines.
Tired and exhausted by their trip,
several of the missionaries decided to
return to America for the present.
Miss Charlotte Hawes, of Pittsburgh,
one of the missionaries at the Wei Hei
station at the time the attack was
made by the Boxers, has arrived
home. Little Miss Chalfant accom-
panied her and will remain with her
uncle and aunt in Pittsburgh until
her parents either arrive here or send
for her to return to China.
Rev. Charles Chalfant, of Ashtabula,
o., is an uncle of Margaret's. Her
papa has been chosen by the Presby-
terian board of foreign missions to re-
turn to Wei Hei as soon as practicable
and ascertain the loss to mission prop.
erry and missionaries.

WAS NOT ASKED AGAIN.
One Occasion When the Piety of q
Michigan Politician Was Not
Conspicuous.

M E. Chittenden, the Michigan politician
who died recently, dearly loved joke. His
own initials, m. L. c., - he always insisted,
stood for Methodist Episcopal church, which
organization, could it have secured him,
would have acquired very lively member.
Mart" as Mr.. Chittenden was familiarly
called, relates the Chicago Chronicle, par
TALLY lost his hearing some years ago and
communication with him thereafter was one
Of the fine arts. Being the agent OF
the Standard Oil company for large terri
tory, he travelled considerably, and on GER
tain occasion fell in with couple of friends
at Hillsdale, who invited him to go with them
to dinner at the house of resident ac-
quaintance. One of them quietly said to the
host: Mr.. Chittenden is an exceedingly
pious man and likes to have the food blessed
before partaking You must invite him to
ask the blessing.
Accordingly, when all were seated, silence
fell upon the company, while the host turned
to Mr.. Chittenden with "Will you ask the
blessing?"
Up went Chittenden' hand to his ear, with
his usual quick, nervous gesture, as in a
listening attitude he responded in a tone
more decided than unctuous:
I've grown so ALFRED deaf lately that il
you've got anything to say to me you'll have
to say it devilish loud"
A roar from the two friends disclosed to
Chittenden and the astonished host that
they had been the victims of a practical joke
But Chit" enjoyed it amazingly when he un
derstood what had happened.
