One of "Uncle Eds" Yarns.

Uncle Ed. Seeley being in remi-
nescent mood recently "spun few" Of
the days Of "auld lang syne," one OF
which follows:
A friend and neighhor, a very worthy
man, whom we will call Col. pumpkins,
because that was not his name, had
been losing his wheat from where 1t
was stored, and was greatly puzzled, as
we'll as very wroth thereat. After
many bushels OF the precious bread
stuff had gone, an imperious thought
came to the Col He. forthwith, pro-
cured lot OF shot and mixed it up in a
pot OF red paint, then spread the little
bits OF carmine tinted lead on q board
to dry, when that was accomplished he
placed the painted shot In his grain
and mixed it all up together. Ere long
more Of the wheat surreptitiously dis
appeared and the Col. then started out
on the warpath, with blood in his eye.
He visited number OF his neighbors
and told the story Of his loss, where up
on he was freely shown what each and
every man possessed until he came to
one who was reluctant to let his wheat
be seen, finally, upon pressure, he OPEN
ed up his bin, when, behold! the little
leaden messengers told their own tale
OF theft and meanness.
The once thrifty, yet, withal, dis
honest farmer lost his farm, his home
and friends and was given long term
In the penitentiary for his baseness.
