Ernest Vedel, Paris literary man,
was once a lieutenant in tho French
navy. At one time he commanded a
small warship charged with the duty
of preventing the entrance of foreign
vessels into a Siamese harbor. A Scan
dinavian ship, with a Siamese commo-
dore who called himself Armand Du-
plessis de Richelieu, attempted to en-
ter by the alleged authorization of the
French minister at Bangkok. NJ. Vedel
wrote note in these terms: "If you
don't desist, | shall open fire." Then
he learned that Nine. Richelieu was
with her husband, and he tied the
note to magnificent bouquet. The
commodore with the illustrious name
desisted, and thanked the polite lieu
tenant profusely for the flowers.

Tonti continued his journey with Pom

They descended the river until they
reached the Mississippi, but no traces
of La Sale were to be found. AS they
progressed they could discern the spot
where the retreating Illini had camped
on one side of the stream, while on
the opposite side their foes had kept
a sharp watch over their retreat. Re
turning again. they rested with their
entire force at the site CT Fort Creye-

back to Fort Miami and take up winter
quarters, sending out search parties in
all directions to try and discover any
trace of La Sale and the remnant of
his men.

CONCERNING JAMES ROBINSON
Champion Bareback Rider of the

About.

In the last issue Of the "Theater

the stage and those connected with
the amusement world, is an article by
Charles Stow upon 1.-THE Pioneers OF
the American Circus'' 1t tells much
concerning such well known men as
"Uncle" John Robinson, Dan Rice,
James A. Bailey and P I. Barnum. In
regard to Mr.. Robinson, who has a

says;
"'Jimmie' Robinson, as he is IA

of which the second church building
sprung.
one OF the most interesting anec-
dotes he told was Of certain minister
formerly of this city, Rev. W. A. May
new, and a prominent young physician
OF near here, who were rivals for the
hand Of most eStimable and acco n
piished young lady of Palmyra.
Rev. Mayhem, as the old citizens
will remember, was a widower strong
OF Intellect and immaculate of dress,
more than that he was fastidious.
From the top OF his stylish hat to his
shiny, perfectly fitting boots he ap.
peared to outshine any specimen Of
genus homo in the neighborhood, and
at the time Of this story he was look
ing for a second helpmate.
1t seems that the reverend gentle-
man had heard Of the young lady from
Marion county and accordingly de-
termined to win her regard and affec-
tion. They met at a Methodist con-
ference in Chlllicothe in 1860 and the
minister danced constant attendance
to the object Of his desires, much to
the chagrin of the physician, who had
gone to Palmyra expecting to find the
lady there One particularly beauti-
full evening Rev. Mayhem escorted the
lady home from church, and made an
engagement to accompany her to early
morning prayer meeting, the following
day, but little did he know how the
fates we're consplring against him.
After he had walked a mile or SO
through the dewy grass, and saturat-
ed bis glove-ftting boots they shrunk
so during the night that, in spite of
bis earnest efforts, the following
morning, they would not go on his
feet and the prayer meeting engage
ment was broken.
The young lady and the physician
we're married soon after, and are now
residents Of this city; a happier or
more highly esteemed old couple can
not be found In the country, and the
doctor says he owes his happiness to
Rev. Mayhew'S boots.
