Why tho Bread Casne Back.

!, A boy who had been working in d

about to finish his trade. One night
when the boss was gone he broke
the marble slab he nodded his loaves
I on" So he went to the, marble yard
to secure another, but: could not
find one, says .Lippincott's Maga-
zine. On his way bacl; he passed a
graveyard, and as it was very dark
he jumped over. and pulled up a
small theadstone about the right size
and took; it back and finished! his
JOB. The next day after the bread
had been delivered nearly all of it
was cent back. The baker looked at
' It and broke several loaves open, bnt
found nothing wrong. Then he hap
@pened to turn one Of the loaves over
and found on the underside Of every
loaf the inscription: Here lies the

Crushed Shs Y.aSvyor.

Some years ago In Alabama one Of
the most talented lawyers practicing
In the south was the late Colozl5; Grugg,
but he had peppery temper.
- Not only did Colonel Bragg's disposi-
ton Involve him from time to time In
serious differences with his colleagues,
but it also led him to break of AMIGA
BILE relations with q Judge Robinson, O
most estimable jurfst, who while pre-
siding over q suit in which Bragg was
interested had by his decision incurred
the resentment Of the advocate. So
Tor, q long time the colonel declined
even to speak TO the Judge save when
& it was absolutely necessary In the
course of business: = f%s.|'' E, a. ~ 7 :. "
Finally, however,, his better nature

Halfway up the stairs she paused

THE BAGplpE.
!s Is The Only Musical instrument Dis.
tinotiy National.

ss Us ehe Only Musical instrument Dis.
tinetiy National.
The bagpipe of Scotland is the
only instrument Of which it may he
said that it is distinctly national.
The violin, the flute, the horn and
other instruments are common to
many nations, but the bagpipe is Pc
culiar to Scotland, and, although it
does not now occupy the position it
once did, it is found in no other
country:
In the days when the notorious
Rob Roy committed his deprcda-
tions, when the Vich Ian Vohrs lived
securely in their highland fast
ness and kept up their digniticd So
cial position-in the stirring tiEies
of which Sir Walter Scott has told
us-the bagpipe player was one Of
the important personages in the
chieftain's retinue, and these may be
considered as the palmy, days of the
Instrument.
/ Within the region more strictly
known as the highlands It's sllriil
note was the first sound that fell cn
the cars of infancy. IT charmed tie
rude Caledonians in times of j,,'
and. comfortcd them in scenes o.
mourning. 1t animated their he
roes in battle and welcomed them
back from their conflicts, and whcr-
ever their chiefs went it accompa-
MED them, even to the grave.
The effect of this wild instrument
on the Highland soldiers is marvel
ous., Above the rattle of musketry
and the turmoil and roar of the bat
tlefeld the inspiring notes of the
pibroch have spoken encouragement
to the highlanders and led them
bravely forward. At the battle of
Quebec, when tho troops were re-
treating in disorder and the conflict
had most discouraging aspect, tho
general complaint was about the de-
moralization in Frazer's corps.
"Sir," said an. officer, you did
very wrong in forbidding the pipers
to play. Nothing inspirits the high
landers SO much. Even now they
would be of some use." .
'Let them blow, them" said the
general. ......-. 49, -.
So the pipers started we'll known
aiT, and the highlanders rallied and
bravely returned to the charge.
Some say that the bagpipe came
down from the Romans; others, that
it came through the northern na-
tions of Scotland. st any rate, it
seems to have always been one of the
musical instruments of the Celtic
race. :, -. r, ] =: - ...-...
|: The pipe mentioned in ancient
history was simply what is known as
/ the shepherds reed. After time a
bag was added and subsequently the
drones or burdens. There are four
forms Of the modern bagpipe-the
great highland bagpipe, which is
blown by the player, the drones be-
ing placed over the shoulder; the
lowland bagpipe, which is provided
with a bellows, for supplying the
wind; the Northumberland Ia bag pipe,
which5is smaller and sweeter in tone
than the former two, and the Irish
bagpipe, which is a much more com
plicated instrument - st. James Ga

cratic opponent. Mr.. Davis was de-
feated by MIR. Georgen by major

The candidate for clerk of the dis
trict court, is long time resident OF
South Fork township. For mum.
Der of years he taught school, alter
wards engaged in farming, but for
several years past has been and now
is an officer Of the Hopkinton State
Bank. He has an excellent educa-
ton, is splendid penman and ac-
countaht and in every way qualified
to perform every duty pertaining to
the Office to which he has been nom
mated. That he is held in high es-
TEEN where he is best known is evil
denced by the following from The
Hopkinton Leader, republican pa
per. editedsand published by one OF
the leaders of the republican part,
in this county. &c. II. Ricketts,, who
was nominated last Saturday by tile
democratic convention to fill the va
cancy on the county ticket of tina,
party, is one Of the well known citi-
zens Of Delaware county. Mr.. Rick
etts is not man who is an aspiran,
for office, though he has been given
many places of trust in township
and city affairs during his residence
here. He is popular in all circles,
social or political, and if it were not
for the fact that his name occasion
ally appears on democratic ticket,
it would scarcely be known what his
politics is. His competency for the
clerks office, or any other, will moi,
be questioned by those who know
him. For several years past he has
been bcok-keeper for the Hopkinton
State Bank, where his services are
esteemed to the highest satisfaction.
It won't make much difference to
Charley" whether he is elected or
not; he realizes there is great big
majority to go up against. Never
theless he has host Of friends who
can conscientiously wish him sue
