Easier to Run Than to Stop.

Quite a number of years ago there
lived in Bennington, VT, several
wealthy gentlemen who weighed over
$50 pounds each. They were very
jolly, and would meet two or three
evenings week to tell stories and
have good time. Finally one OF
them proposed that they organize a
lazy mans club. and that no man
weighing less than $50 pounds could
join It. The vote was unanimous in
favor of this, and rules and bylaws
were adopted.
Two of the heaviest members of the
club were Enos Adams, a prominent
manufacturer, and Oliver Ayres, who
each tipped the beam at 300 pounds,
with James b. Meacheam. a leading
lawyer, close third. One day Mr..
Ayres was seen going down small
hill adjacent to the village in a sort
of shutting trot. He was complained
of by another member, arrested, ar
raigned and promptly tried" His
defense was that it was harder work
to hold back than to run, and he was
at once acquitted.

DRUMMER WAS POOR ADVISER.
Fatal Flaw In Prescription for Cure Of
Rheumatism.

Fatal Flaw In Prescription for Cure OF
rheumatism.
Speaking of rheumatism" said the
drummer as he sagely shook his head,
81 had brother who was afflicted
with It for six years. He tried half a
dozen different doctors and went to
half a dozen different springs, but he
found no relief. At length he deter.
mined to try heroic measures. That
Is, advised him to do something In
that direction as a forlorn hope, and
thought the tip good one"
What did he try?" was asked
"He went into a pasture and faced
a bull that had tossed half a dozen
men skyhigh. We figured that when
the bull started for him with head
down and tail up the scare would
drive the rheumatism out and he
would strike a 2:4O gait for the fence"
And how did it work."
Three minutes after the bull
caught sight of Charley his rheuma-
tism was gone, never to return"
you don't say!"
But | do, and Charley was gone
with II. He never knew how high he
went when the bull got his horns un-
der him, and he never knew what a
hole he made in the ground when he
came down"
Then your-yuur advice"
WAS the worst thing he could have
followed. sir, and Il was a great moral
lesson to me. Since that time have
made 1t a practice to drink alone in.
stead Of advising or encouraging a fel.
low man to wreck his soul, and as this
is my usual time for taking a cocktail
you gentlemen will please excuse me
for five minutes"

Santa Fe Has Bad Smash Up

Train service was greatly de moralized the first of the week, the mail trains arriving most any old time The cause was a bad wreck at Springer, N Mex The Albu querque Journal gives the following particulars:
 Train No ', running several hours late. had orders to meet the Mo- 2 train at Springer. For some reason, the engineers. a double header, pulling the train, ran past the station. Four miles out the engineer of the head engine sighted the electric head Ii ghI of the No 7 train approaching rapidly. Brakes were applied and then began race back to the switch. Fortunately the No 2 train sighted the No. 7 and also slowed down While backing into the station No 2 broke in two, the brakes went down hard on the rear coaches while the tremendous power of the double header engines showed the mail car and two refrigerator cars back against the passenger cars. The result was a pile-up which blocked the track for several hours. Mail Clerk Champ Jamison was the only person injured.
