"Then git off'n my squat! You all can't build no railroad yere. I don't want the hootin', and l won't have it."
 The men laughed at him, and he went to the cabin and got his gun and threatened them. For this he was ar rested and given three months in jail. His old wife and his son Joe took it philosophically.
 "Got him in jail, hev they" queried the wife when she heard the outcome of the trial "Waal. he won't git his feet wet in thar, and mebbe the whis- ky II be better"
 When Pop came out of jail they were building the roadbed across his land. He sat down in his old place in the sunshine and glowered and muttered. and his son Joe came along and said:
 "No use, Pop. Them railroad folks are too hefty fur you. That hooters bound to cum along fur shore"
 But have I ever done anything to the railroad?" demanded the father.

A Salt Sea Tale.

He was in the throws-beg pardon the throes of sea sickness. "Oh, oh! for terra firma!" he moaned, gazing down upon the writhing, restless ocean.
 Aqua squirma Is good enough for me-" returned his chipper friend. But the quip fell upon unheeding ears, for just then the ship heaved and the other man felt called upon to accom- pany her.

 Pop went down to where they were that if work did not cease at once he would kill man. A constable was at hand to arrest him, and he was taken to town for another trial. This time he got year in jail.
 What fur?" he asked the judge.
 For interfering with the railroad and making threats.'
 But didn't the railroad interfere with me first?'
 AS to how?'
 'As to bustin' up my chance fur thinkin'. Jedge, I'm man what thinks. I've got to think. I've got to sot down with my back to the cabin and think a mighty heap. I've allus had to do 1t. and now if this dinged hooter is comin' along yere to bust me up 1 might as well hang myself"
 What do you think off"
 "Of how to git whisky and terbacker and bacon and meal" When the boy came home from the trial the wife and mother asked no questions for an hour Then she care lessly queried:
 How much this timeY
 "A year"
 "Shoo! Pop is gainin' on it.'
 When pop had served two months of his sentence he broke jail and came home. He arrived at night. As he en- tered the cabin his wife awoke and called out:
 That you. pop?"
 Yep"
 What ye doin' outer jail?"
 Busted out"
 "Goin to hide away in the woodsY
 Cant say. Don't talk to me any mo, fur I'm dog tired" Powerful hefty for your size, pop," said Joe as be awoke, but ye hain't hefty huff. Better let 'em alone"
 When morning came pop ate his breakfast and said little. Then he de- parted for his thinking log in the woods It was almost noon when he returned to take down his rifle from its hooks.
 Better let it alone, pop" cautioned Jim.
 ''Shoo, but how cantankerousw whis- pered the wife.
 Pop walked down on the tracks on which trains were running regularly. He took his stand between the rails in full sight of the cabin, and his wife and son came out to see. No word was spoken between them. After ten min utes they heard passenger train whistling at the highway crossing a mile below. Then came the rumble of wheels and sight of the train itself. As 1t came into view pop drew his rife to his face and stood like a rock. The "hooter" hooted at him. As the engine drew nearer the engineer whistled for brakes. The train had only slightly reduced its speed when pop was struck and hurled thirty feet high and off to one side. The mother and son walked down to the spot as the train passed on. When they gathered about the old man the mother said:
 "Dawg gone 1t, but why didn't he have sense?"
 Mighty hefty man, but not hefty huff fur railroad" added Joe as he turned to look after the disappearing train. NJ. QUAD.

hot Iut1ospeCtlve.

The minister Of a large parish
in a certain western diocese had
for some time been much troubled
by the scandalous gossip that
seemed to be occupying the minds
of a portion Of his flock, and,
after exercising a great amount
| of tact and perseverance, at last
succeeded in running to earth the
originator of most of the settle,
ment's society SANDER. The gull
ty one was a regular attendantat
the schoolhouse services and the
minister knew thatshould he take
him to task personally and indi-
vidually he would inevitably lose
a sheep-albeit black Que: so
he decided to sermonize him. Ac-
cordingly, especial discourse was
prepared and, the following Sun,
day afternoon, literally hurled at
the offending member as he sat
on desk in corner Of the
schoolroom. Everybody present
appeared to fully appreciate the
situation, and, at the close of the
service, departed quietly and
somewhat thoughtfully for home.

of love letters. After a hasty
glance at them, the husband said:

The (. Habit.

According to Tennessee man
there was once a judge in tn:
eastern section of that state, a
man well versed in law but
entirely self-educated, who had
to contend with the principles OF
orthograpby ali his life. In early
life he had lived in Knoxville and
for a long Time he insisted upon
spelling the name Noxville.
Finally his friends educated
him up to the point of adding the
K:so thoroughly, in fact, was the
lesson learned that when, a few
years afterward, he moved to
Nashville, nothing could prevent
him from spelling it Knashville.
Then, some time later. the
judge moved again, this time to
Murfreesboro. On the day that
he began to write his first letter
from this place he scratched his
head in perplexity and finally ex-
claimed:

can they spell the name of this
place with a K?:'"-Philadelphia

1T CLEANS THE SHIPS.

Sailing Through a Volcano Crater In
the Aegean Sea.
In the Aegean sea 4 vessel may sail
into the top of crater, and, though 1t
is hard to find anchorage there, yet a
mere sail through is appreciated great
" by captains, because it cleanses the
bottom Of the ships from marine
growth.
More than 1000 years ago the isle Of
Santorin was split in half by an earth
quake. with the result that what was
once the crater Of volcano is now a
crescent shaped harbor. Two glisten-
ing white towns Of Thera and St,
Nicholas are perched on the summit OF
the steep cliffs, whose dark and dismal
hue is similar to that OF the top of We
suvius. Standing out against the sky
are large numbers Of windnills, With
many sails. arranged in a perfect cir
Gle. These are evidently employed for
crushing the olives. which, along with
the terraced vines, are the staple prod
uct OF the island. Inc SlnlOrln Wine Is
Of excellent quality and is highly ap-
preciatcd in tho Levant.
Between the main island on the east
and the smaller. Theresa, On the west,
are the three small Naumene Islands,
all of which have come into existence
since the original earthquake, while the
largest OF the three was "born from
the sea" less than POO years ago. show
ing that the center Of the old volcano
has still a certain amount Of activity.
The water in the harbor into which
the sulphurous streams from this vol
canic island rain has peculiar prop
erty which completely cleans of
growths Of every kind from the bottom
Of any ship.

The Man in the Rain.

you would think, now,
wouldn't you" she said, to a New
York Sun reporter, "that lordly
man would defy the weather and
not permit himself to be disturb
ed by such a little thing as rain?
But my! I think men are more
particular about their fine clothes
than women are.
"Take a man who is out, for
instance, in a light gray suit and
let shower come up. Does the
man in gray go blithely on and
let the rain fall upon him as it
will: Very much not, sir. He
seeks the nearest shelter and
there he waits for the rain en-
tirely to cease before heventures
on: more careful Of his raiment,
surely, than any woman would be
Of hers.
;:But it is what a man does with
his straw hat in the rain that in
teresvs me most. Why, | have
seen a man take off his straw hat
in the shower and carry it under
his coat. so careful is he about it
and isn't a man going along the
street hatless, with his hatclutch-
ed in that way under his coat, a
iunny figure: Did you ever see
a woman do that?
"It's a common thing to see a
man caught in a shower carrying
his straw hat sort Of casually
down at his arms length at his
side, as if he was just sauntering
that way. but really to protect
his hat so much as he can. And
do we not even see men in the
rain holding newspapers over
their hats? Who ever saw a wo-
man do that:
:'Womeu seem somehow to be
able to go through a shower with
out making conspicuous figures
of themselves. They are always
serene, never troubled: and dsome-
how they never seem to get as
wet in the rain as men do"
