pig they proved a delusion and a
snare. He belittled them, took lib

fensive to them, and was caught by
them. @-
1t was after 2t%o clock when the
hog was first displayed to the eager
eyes of the colored "gemmen" who
were to strive for his fine hams and
his chitteriings.4 Many started in the
pursuit, and for twenty minutes all
sorts Of gymnastics were performed.
Most of the contestants Sought to
overwhelm the pig by falling upon
him, but he was too elusive4-the
lard Of some. OIL dead ancestors
had been cakedE too carefully on his
back. - 'a.." -.
Others, thinking men, endeavored
to grasp him by the tail and hold
him firmly by the curl, but there was
no chance, for this, too, was creased
Some grasped at his ears, but did not
stay him. ',~- ...'..
The pig was enjoying himself. He
charged at bevies Of pickaninnies and
drove them, screaming away. He up
set fat women with lunch baskets,
and discom mdaed dignifcd men. He
had no respect for station in life, and

was = mainly instrumental In arrang-

AT last the bow-legged man took
off his coat and Jumped into a, pair

more determined when the pig stop

his tail derisively.. ( d" - '~'r
But the man with the hoop-like
diaphragm was undaunted, and wad-

flash he was upon the pigs back, and
hung Like grim death. when the fat
fellow rushed madly about the field.
twas futile, however, for the col
ored mans fingers were entwined
around the pigs ear, and soon the
contest ended.
Ursus, who conquered the bull in
"uoh Vadis," was not given a great
er demonstration than was the bow
legged man, for it was realized he
had done a deed which would revo-
lutfonize the science Of pig-catching
and forever remove the foulest blot
on the escutcheon Of bowed legs.

CAUGHT THEM IN THE ACT
Wood County Jai!er Just In Time to

y. ~. Prevent Delivery. =.
Parkersburg,. W.. Va, Sept. s.
BY clever ruse Jailer Gabbert, his
wife and his efficient turnkey, Ed.
Callihan, ,foiled Jail delivery which
was on the fire. ard ready to be
pulled off in a very short time at
1880. o'clock Monday, morning The
work of four convicts and prospec-
tives was nipped inst in time,
though they possibly coNld not have
made all preparations this morn
ing.
For the past three or four nights
Jailer Gabbert or some member Of
his family has been awakened dur
ing the night to hear what seemed
to- be the work of the prisoners with
saws. JaiIer Gabbert remained up
all Of Sunday night in order to de:
tect them If possible.
After midnight noise from the
cells convinced him that operations
we're on and he summoned Mrs. Cab
bert and the turnkey, who, with MIN,
crept stealthily to the corridor door.
Without having made a bit Of noise
they turned on the lights full, and
then Mrs. Gabbert swung the door
wide.
There were four men at work with
saws, in the full glare of the stream
ing light. They we're utterly surpris-
ed and dropped their tools in confu-
sion. Meantime the jailer, Mrs. Cab
bert and the turnkey were making a
survey Of the situation. 49,"
The four actively engaged at work
were Charles LAWN, convicted Of
shooting Mike Sheeli; Robert Ar
mour, convicted Of forgery; Rev.
Graham, the preacher-horse-th
Who is awaiting the action Of the
grand jury, and Jim Wilson, charg-
ed with breaking into a&hox car.
They had four Of five saws, each
about eight inches long, and a half
inch wide, wt1icfr-the ei4er said must
have been passed in from the out
side and which he believes came
from Marietta.
The men were at work saving off
the heads Of bolts which held in po-
Ition an iron plate which covered
the place Of a missing bar, which
had been left out to make room for
pipe, connecting with a sewer from
a toilet room.
When the room was torn out and
the pipe removed the iron plate had
been fastened to the bars by means
Of bolts.
1t would have required probably
another day. to remove all the bolts
and then the plate, and it would
have been very easy then TO escape
from the jail through the main cor
ridor.
The jailer's idea In catching them
at work was to make sure % the
presence Of tools. He has made re-
peatcd inspections and has failed 10
find any tools in the possession Of
the convicts and he doesn't know
where they were 50 successfully con-

business Shows Contraction Only SO
Far us Money In Short.
NEW YORK. November 1.-Dun's
weekly review Of trade Tomorrow will
say: Contraction has followed the
financial crisis Of last. but only to the
extent compelled by inability to raise
money. There is no evidence that con-
ndence has teen permanently impaired.
On the contrary, qualification Is felt
that the nation was so strongly for
tined by dread of unexampled pros
perity that the severe strain made no
deeper impression. Many contemplated
developments have been postponed. and
merchants fined rates for commercial
paper almost prohibitive. yet retail
trade is stimulated by more seasonable
temperature and at interior cities COL
lections improve with the movement Of
the crop to market. Textile manufac-
turing plants are not reducing activi-
ty, although there is more caution re-
sarding future business. In certain
lines some accumulation Of stocks is
noted but these are In strong hands
that are not likely to urge sales at the
expense of values. Moreover, there are
exceptional instances, most lines being
sold unusually far ahead. Cheaper raw
material and tight money indicate that
some adjustment in pieces may be nee
cssary. and that It would establish the
market upon healthier basis, but the
present time Is not propltious. Much
Satisfaction Is expressed In the dry
goods trade over the manner in which
last weeks stress was sustained Civ
ing most encouraging prospect Tor
the future. Prices are still well above
the views of exporters.
