Rarnmys Rammy, Ram.

Mollie had little ram as black as a
rubber shoe, and everywhere that Mol
lie went he migrated too.
He went with her to church one day
the folks hilarious grew to see him
demurely walk into Deacon Aliens
pew.
The worthy deacon quickly let his
angry passion rise, and gave it an I'M
christian kick between the sad brown
eyes.
This landed rammy in the isle, the
deacon followed fast, and raised his
foot again: alas. the first kick was his
last.
For Mr.. Sheep walked slowly back,
about rod it's said, and ere the dea-
con could entreat, it stood him on his
head:
The congregation then arose aid

well-directed butts piled them in a
heap.

the door with curses long and loud,
while rammy struck the hindmost man
and knocked him through the crowd.
The minister had often heard that
kindness would subdue the fercest
beast. "Aha!" he says. 'I'll try that
game on you"
And so he kindly, gently called:
"Come rammy, rammy, ram; to see the
folks abuse you so, I grieved and sorry
am"
With kind and gentle words he came
from that tall pulpit down, saying:
'sRammy; rammy, ram-best sleepy in
the town."
The ram quite dropped its humble
air, and he rose from off his feet, and
when the parson lit he was behind the
hindmost seat.
AS he shot out the door and closed
it with slam he named a California
town. | think it was ''Yuba Dam.

Of Rev. Mr.. VOLTS sensational sermon

The theory of the prosecution was
that Stokes sought the minister in his

smoking revolver in hand. and in reply
to a question Stokes said: "Woll shot
