Comedy in Jail Yard.

Elizabethtown, the country seat of
Essex, in the Adirondacks, possesses
a comedy Jail. It is small, having
windows secured by wooden bars and
a Jail yard Enclosed by solid fence of
three-quarter-inch boards, which a
healthy male could push over with his
shoulder. But the prisners rarely, if
ever, attempt to escape. Some good
stories are told by Judge Kellogg,
Judge Hand and other residents, re-
lated the Philadelphia Ledger. 1t is a
custom to allow the prisoners out on
parole, so that they may cut the grass
on neighbOring lawns, do garden work,
or repair roads for the village or coun-
ty. Recently one prisoner, who should
have returned at o'clock, did not
apply for admission until nearly an
hour later. The warden angrily de-
manded to know the reason, and ad-
ded: Don't let this occur again or
will not allow you to come in. lock
the door at 6 o'clock and won't open
it in the future for you"

IT'S FALL

The foliage is slowly changing hues,
The buckwheat cakes are gently
turning brown,
The grapes are getting purple and
the wise
Are geLung undergarments lined
with down;
The sumac leaves turn crimson in the
woods
And whisky is the beverage on tap,
While pumpkins are a-ripening in the
field,
The football fever creeps across the
map
It's fall.
The apples hang like globes of red
and gold
And candidates are busy kissing
kids,
The golden rod is blooming on the
lea,
The auctioneers is busy hearing
bids;
The nights are growing long ano
cool and still,
And whiskers now begin to sprout
and grow,
A softening haze hangs over hill and
vale;
For overcoats our hard-earned
dough we blow
It's fall.

High Honors for Winchester Guns.

The reputation of the Winchester Re-
peating Arms Co., New Haven, Conn.,,
the largest manufacturers of guns and
ammunition in the world, stands as high
abroad as in this country, as is evidenced
by the fact that most of the crowned
heads of Europe place orders with them
for their hunting outfits. The last addi-
ton to the long list of potentates to favor
the Winchester Company with his pat
ronage is King Oscar of Sweden. He
was so pleased with the guns made for
him by this great company that, without
solicitation upon their part, he appointed
them gunmakers to His Majesty.
