s'Parceling Out De People"

Fishing, two boys strung their big
catch on the same string. Passing a
grave yard they entered the gate to
divide the catch, dropping two tlsh
just as they went into the cemetery.
Passing, an aged negro heard the
boys: 'tI'll take this one, you that
one, you that one," etc.
The negro listened in dismay and
ran away as rapidly as his old legs
could carry him. He met his negro
minister, who called:
Deacon, why you run in such ter
ror?"
Declare, parson, been down yon-
der by de graveyard and over de
fence heard de devil and de Lord
parceling out de people atwen 'em:"
The parson laughed at the old
mans fright and made him go back
with him to the graveyard to con-
vince him of his error.
The boys were still dividing
"You take this I take that" etc.
Finally one boy asked. what you
going to do with them two at the
gate?"
This was more than parson or dea-
con could stand, and both ran pell'
NELL, neither wishing to take any
further chances, no matter what was
going on just over the fence.-Au'
gusta Chronicle.

Crank Saws He is Gods Angel.

Spokane, Wash, Jan. 2.-Stark
naked and apparently deranged,
Frank Mays, a strapping laborer, rs
wears of age, in the Billy Sunday Tab
ernacfe last night attempted to
mount the pulpit to deliver an ex-
hortation on "The Devil" The man
was prevented from carrying out his
purpose by ushers, with whom be
fought like tiger. Wrapped IN q
blanket, he was taken to the city JAIL
bound hand and foot.
At the station Mays declared ne
had disrobed to prove that he was an
angel from God. Still manacled, the
laborer was locked up in a strong
cell, where he squirmed out OF the
blanket and began to shout that he
was the devil, come to put Billy Sun
day out of business. He varied those
statements by singing hymns. :.
Before making his spectacular at.
tempt to enter the pulpit Mays went
into a waiting room where he dis.
robed, He was half way to the pulpit
when he was discovered. His hercu-
lean strength enabled him to fight his
captors for several minutes before ne
was overpowered and bound.

Kentucky Feudists Disperse.

Jackson, KY, Jan. 1.-Fearlng
that the governor would send troops
to Breathitt county to preserve order,
the Callahan and Deaton factions to-
day agreed to truce and disbanded.
Both bands left Jackson late to-day.
The compromise was the result OF the
dismissal of the warrants against
Former Sheriff ED" Callahan and
seven of his adherents, who were
charged with the shooting of Rash
Sebastian, and those against Govan
Smith and two of the Deaton faction
for confederating and for shooting
up the Callahan home shortly after
the presidential election. Judge
Taulbee's action in dismissing the
warrants, it is said, ives taken on th\
recommendation of some of the most
prominent citizens and leaders in the
law and order movement in Breathltt
county When the cases were called
this morning Judge Taulbee was
about to order the summoning OF
armed men to take the place Of the
troops which the governor has been
asked to send. Then the proposal to
dismiss the warrants in the interest
of peace was made and to this the
court agreed.

Aiken-Augusta New Road.

The Augusta-Aiken Highway AS
sociation has already raised i've
thousand dollars for the construction
of the highway between Augusta and
Aiken, and work is now in progress
on the portions of the highway which
will have to be built through the
woods and fields. There are about
five miles of road that will have to
be constructed outright through the
territory between Belvidere and
Langley, and the association wants
this portion completed before any
others. The greater part Of the road
between Augusta and Aiken is IN
good condition, and therefore does
not require working, but the portion
which must be constructed will be
begun at once. President J. G. La
mar, of the Association, states that
before the end of the tourist season
there will be splendid road between
Augusta and Aiken, although they
will not be able to equip it as thor
oughly as they would wish, but by
