Why They Laughed.

She entered her husbands Office in the
financial district about 5 o'clock in tie
afternoon, in plenty of time to go out tc
dinner with him, says the New York Sun.
She was young and fair and beautifully
dressed, but it required no second glance
to see that she was angry.
'I think it is abominable," she said
looming down in the open car there
were four creatuers in the seat behind me
who did nothing but laugh and make fun
of my dress, and I know there is nothing
wrong about it. You can see that fol
yourself turning her back.
my DEAR" said her husband, Il will
break the news to you as gently as posi-
BILE. As you say, there is nothing the
matter with your dress. That peek-a-boo
shirt waists simply ravishing. Butt re,
veals about an inch and half of porous
plaster on your back, and it was this, NO
doubt, that caused the creatures to
laugh" :.
He saved the price of the dinner, but it
cost 81 to get them home IN cab.

Politicians and Editors.

Something has been said in reference to
the presence of three candidates for gov
ernor at the State press meeting at White
Stone Springs. We agree with the idea
that their presence there was in bad taste
even if invited. The truth of the matter
is that NJ. L. Smith was invited to be'pres'
ent and to speak, Col. Jno. T. Sloan got
himself "sorter" invited, and Mr.. Ansel
came without any invitation at all
Messrs. Sloan and Ansel seemed to be aT'
fully afraid that Mr.. Smith would get the
ear of the newspaper men and thus gel
an advantage in the race.
We are like our good old friend, Col
Bacon, "agin" the whole lot. However
we must do each of the gentlemen the
Justice to state that politics was not men
toned in their speeches or in private con-
yersation so far as we know. In tact
there was no discussion of politics at the
meeting by anybody, and our only regret
is that the meeting should have assumed
a political aspect because of the presence
of these three candidates.
While on this subject we want to say
that we would be glad to see Elbert H
Aull, our State president, in the race fol
governor. His views suit US, and he'd
make good one.

loaded with men coming at top speed

began to sound.
II climbed into the buggy, and Thur
man began to harness the horse, Of
fering to drive me to Mr.. Hess, but l
told him would drive alone. The In
slant he finished hitching started the
horse at a fast trot. A cousin met me
when I was halfway through the field,
and began to feel awfully weak. Ny
husband joined me few minutes lat
er. I felt sorry for him. he must
have suffered much more than did.
'T felt weak enough to lie down
when they told me to do 50 after tax

hour or SO I was all right So we got
the bananas for Jack-I always try to
remember and keep my promises to
him-and went home"

No Doubt of His Honesty.

1t is only few years since Woonsock-
ct missed for good the familiar face of
Alf Church, for long time deputy sher'
iff and chief of police, man who was
straightforward and blunt in all his deal
ings.
One day grocer went to Alffor infor'
nation about a certain Joe White, who
had applied for credit and book at his
store, and the following dialogue ensued:
"Good mornin' Mr.. Church"
"AIornin'"
"Do you know Joe White:"
"Yes."
"What kind of feller is he?"
"Putty fair"
"Is he honest:"
Honest? 1 should say so. Been ar.
rested twice for stealing and acquitted
both times. ."-Boston Herald.

and Mrs. Hess to go with him to
cabin in the woods. There he held Mrs.
Hess a prisoner until the Judge return
ed with 5000, which the negro, Bob
Witherspoon, claimed the state owed
him for loss of time during the two
years in the penitentiary. He demand
ed that Judge Hess pay the money,
saying that he could afterward re-
cover it from the state. When the ne
gro received the 5000 he ran from the
cabin, and Judge Hess gave the alarm.
The man was captured by posse and
hanged.
IN telling the story Of her experience
Mrs. Hess, who is twenty-seven years
old, said to representative Of the St.
Louis Post-Dispatch:
Il was preparing breakfast when the
man first appeared on the place. saw
he was armed and that my husband
was under some sort Of restraint at
his hands I thought he had got into
some trouble and Mr.. Hess was trying
to straighten it out. When saw him
hitching the buggy I supposed be was
going to drive to the scene Of the trou-
BILE. I took his rubber boots to him
and whispered the question should l
bring him his revolver. He replied for
me to make no sign and not to suggest
a revolver. Bob then ordered Us to
cease whispering, and went back in
to the house. A little later Mr.. Hess
called to me to go with him to town. Il
threw a light wrap over my shoulders
and put a sunbonnet on my head,
kissed Jack, our two-year-old son,
goodby, promised to bring him some
bananas and went to the buggy.
''Mr. Hess got In beside me, and Bob
mounted horse and rode close behind
u.s. After we had started Mr.. Hess
whispered the true story to me. BE
said:
"'Bob thinks the state owes him
some money and that must pay it to
him. He is going to hold you as host
age until get the money, so you must
be very careful III try to outwit him,
but at any rate I'll get you away from
him soon after we get to town
II decided the only safe course was
for me to keep perfect control Of my
self and not under any circumstances
allow him to see I was afraid Of him.
1 laughed now and then as we rode
and frequently peered through the
glass in the back Of the buggy to
watch Bob. He was riding with his
horses nose against our buggy; across
his saddle lay the double barreled shot
gun, with both hammers cooked. Mr..
Hess asked him to uncock the gun, as
it might go off accidentally.
"'Never mind; I'll keep it cooked he
replied. 1T won't go of unless I want
it to-
1--WE passed several persons along
the road, but none Of them suspected
the trouble. They could not have help
ed US had they tried to do so. I am
quite convinced the man would have
killed US at any sign Of interference.
Several times Mr.. Hess asked Bob
if we had not gone far enough. he
replied that he knew where he was go
ing and would tell us when to turn out
Finally, when we were at the edge OF
town, at the Hunter place, he COM
manded Mr.. Hess to get down and
open the gate. Then we drove IN
back Of a barn and house, along the
side Of the railroad track, to the Baptist
church and around that to cabin.
Bob commanded US to stop there.
Mr.. Hess got out, tied the buggy

THE PASSER=BY

Happiness.
In ages past man was given
\ seed to plant in life's domain;
1t was gift fresh from Heaven
To man free from any stain.
For innocent man free from care,
The gem was sown by Gods own hand,
Up sprang in Joys own place-a tare,
Made to grow by foolish man.
Could man have known what he had
From a seed sown to bless,
He with remorse would have torn
Loves habitation from his breast.
But men today yearn for thee
Who hath to realms not ours flown;
We wish for thee, that thou wouldst be
The keeper of our life alone.
But hearts are few where thou dost reign
With uncontested power,
For envious men do intervene
Between US and thee, thou fairest flower,
In Gods garden grown.
When men perceive
That to receive
Is not of life the best,
But that to give
Is to live
Thou wilt return-Happiness
