Poor Hubby.

Truly the ways of women are un-
fathomable-at least to mere man.
Take this nice spring limiting
weather for instance. A man has a
healthy, natural desire to quit work,
haul out his fishing tackle, go to the
river, and have nice little heart to
heart talk with nature-or at it if
his luck is poor. Does a woman do
anything like this? Not much. Al.
the first suspicion of spring, when
the birds are returning and the air
is mellow and scented with sweet in
tangible odors, she begins to get
nervous and after a couple Of days
Modern Xanthippe launches a
thunderbolt at her poor I'M
suspecting Socrates by announcing
that she is going to clean house and
he'd better be thinking about taking
down the stove pipes and pulling up
the carpets.
His feeble remonstrance passes
unnoticed and after strenuous
week, during which he becomes
badly battered as result of different
unstable objects trying to take
refuge on his person, the man be-
gins to think that as everything is
quiet now and the Madame apparent
ly content, he will take that little
fishing trip he's promised himself.
He neivously breaches the subject,
after he has sneaked around and
gotten his tackle already. only to
meet with a storm of reproach.
What, go fishing, waste a whole day

A Lucky Dive.

A team belonging to +. Todd,
who resides south of town, had a
narrow escape from being seriously
injured or killed last Wednesday
afternoon. They became frightened
at an Illinois Central train and
broke away from the post to which
they were tied and ran east on
Marion street. At the time, car
penters were engaged in repairing
the floor Of the Marion street bridge
and had several feet Of the flooring
renewed. They saw the runaway
team approaching and did all in
their power to keep the horses of
the bridge, but could not. The
horses dashed onto the bridge and
plunged through the opening in the
floor into the river beneath.
One swan over and landed near
the building occupied by Young 4
Doty, while tho other went VI
stream and came out near the
novelty stables. 1t seems remark.
able that the horses escaped unin
jured, but such appeared to be the
case upon inspection of them shortly
after. The vehicle and most of the
harness was lost before they reached
the bridge.
