drought Up" In College.

One of the most original characters
of the Welsh pulpit was the Rev. Lewis
Powell, Cardiff. While on a visit to
Carmarthentown on one occasion he
called at the college, and the students
were all for the first time to pay him
homage.
Can have the help of two of you,
my boys, for a minutc?" asked Mr..
Powell
Yves, dear Mr.. Powell" answered
half dozen of them at the same time.
"Well, want two lusty boys, if you
please" he remarked, and two of the
strongest students were chosen. Now,
my boys" said the old preacher, let
me lay hand on the shoulder of each
OF you, and you put your arms around
me-"
This was done.
Lift me, boys" said Mr.. Powell, and
the students lifted him until he was
head and shoulders above all present
in the room. Thank you, nay boys"
he remarked. Let me down now"
This was done. Then one of the boys
asked:
what is the meaning of this, Mr..
Powell?'
The answer was: well, some people

BLUFFED BY BEN BUTLER.

Had Booths Diury.

Made General Bingham Believe He
Had Booths Dinry.
General John ~ Bingham was Il
member of the military tribunal that
tried Mrs. Surratt and the Lincoln as
Sassination cOnspiratorS.
After the trial III the subsequent de-
bates in the house General b. L. But
lcr frequently charged that the COM
mission had arrived at an unjust YER
dict and had convicted an innocent
woman. In memorable debate he
boldly proclaimed that if the contents
Of diary which had been found on
the dead body of ]. Wilkes Booth were
rvcr made public it would disclose the
fact that it contained the proof of
Mrs Surratt'S innocence, which proof
had been UNANIMOUSLY suppressed by the
commission. When General Bingham
made Il movement as though he would
repel such an accusation, Butler dra-
matically drew Il memorandum book
from his breast pocket and held it
aloft, but did not utter Il word. Bing-
ham naturally supposed that Butler
had Il copy Of diary such as he had
spoken Of AS a matter of fact the
book contained nothing but blank
leaves. General Butler was just bluff
ing.
The diary was i'll possession Of Sec
rotary Stanton, but President Johnson
finally demanded it. 1t was an inter
esting book. but it threw no light upon
the great conspiracy. Johnson's pri-
vate secretary was W. W. Warden,
who WAS the correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun, and besides was in the en-
ploy of the New York Tribune bureau
to supply it with all the information
he consistently could. To him Andrew
Johnson intimated that he would not
be averse to the publication Of Booths
diary and permitted him to make a
copy of it.
Warden took it after midnight to
James Rankin Young, the Washington
correspondent of the Tribune, and the
next morning the Tribune and the Bal
timore Sun had Il big beat. Sam
BOwle5 of the Springfield Republican
reproached his correspondent for fail
ing to get Il copy.

wanted to grasp him by his hand first.
Eandccken made Il little speech and
told them what the doctor had told him
ali about what Endicott had done and
HOY he had held little Bob Bovine in
his arms the night the child died. They
tried to get Endicott to say something
about it himself. but he merely red
dcned up and shifted uncasily from one
foot to the other and finally blurted
out: "Oh, pshaw! 1t really wasn't any

That evening he sat on the steps with

heartily.

He sat for moment in dazed silence.
He could not comprehend it all. Then
his eyes lighted wonderfully.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

No one likes man who is everlast-
ingly saying Beg pardon"
The man who talks too much, as a
rule, does not talk enough at the right
time.
Two heads are better than one, but
one of them nearly always does the
business.
Most men have the same expert
ences. The only difference is that some
men talk and some don't.
When you are working very hard
take some comfort in this: Those who
are idle don't seem to be having very
good time.
We suppose newspapers do annoy
their readers a good deal. Still news
paper men, as Il rule, do the best they
can. 1t is an annoying business.

FOR Indians
BIG PAYMENT FOR CHoCTAWs
AND CHICKASAWS.
begins first OF june
One Million Dollars to Be Passed Ar
ound-Disbursement Represents
The Second Allotment.

Muskogee, I, T., May 9.-One of
the biggest Indian payments made in
Indian Territory in recent years will
be disbursed in the Choctaw and
Chickasaw nations beginning June |.
II involves the payment Of 81 100000
to the Indian citizens of Choctaw and
Chickasaw nations, and before com
pleting the work, the paying party
will make disbursements in forty-eight
different towns.
The money represents the second
installment of Chickasaw and Choc-
taw townsite funds, which has been
accruing from payments made to the
Indian agency on town lots in the
two nations. These lots were sold
when the government townsites were
segregated, the purchasers paying for
them in installments. Two years ago
a similar payment of about 100000
was made by Indian agent j. b. Sho-
enfelt.
Each citizen of both nations, in
cluding Mississippi Choctaws, but ex-
cepting freedmen, will receive $50,
the payment being made per capita.
The disbursement of $l,000,OOO in the
towns of the Choctaw and Chickasaw
nations during the next few weeks
will be stimulant to business, as the
Indians will spend all this money in
the towns. Two years ago 100000
was disbursed in single town during
the townsite payment. More towns
will be visited this summer than dur
ing the first payment, but the aver
age payment in each town will be over
$4,000
The payment will commence in the
fullblood district at Smithville, in the
Choctaw nation, and the paying party
will move from town to town as all
claimants are reached in a vicinity,
hence no definite dates are set for the
