RAILROAD BOYS HAVE LITTLE FUN.

A few days since, some of the
Virginia an q Southwestern
passenger boys conceived the
idea of having a little fun by
playing a joke on Ellis Whit
aker, the news butch
While Ellis was in another
part of the train, having locked
his chest SO that the fruit
would be safe, Nat McCroskv
and another trainman, took the
fuse out Of torpedo, and ar
ranged IL SO as to appear shat
some one had tried TO blow open
the chest. When it was time
for Ellis to appear, they fired
some sulphur matches about
the chest and concealed them
selves to await deve opments.
When Ellis came in and smelled
the fumes and looked at his
chest he was very much excited
for a time, thinking that in his
absence some one had blown
open his box and stolen his
fruit. The other two boys
then appeared and allayed his
feelings by telling him that il
was only joke, and with n
"sets up they would call il
square.-Bristol News.

Martins Revenge.

A correspondent tells the story of two house martins nests built against an attic window of a farm, 10 which the birds came for several successive years. Last spring. however, before they arrived, sparrow took up her abode in one of the nests.
 Shortly after the martins returned as usual. and one day the farm people noticed that the hole of the nest which the sparrow occupied had been blocked up. Next morning a boy climbed up to ascertain the meaning of this, and not finding any outlet broke away part of the nest. to find the poor little sparrow dead on her eggs.
 The house martins had walled her up for daring to take possession of their house-Country Life.
