ployes had a free bath. Hetis a veter-

There was no way to get the water
turned off except to go straight into

many trials before he managed to
throttle the %impromptu fountain. And
when he had made it tapsthe mat, and

said-"Ach, Donal, nevert mind; it'll

Pitched Battle With eypsies.

Some gypsies infesting the forests
in the neighborhood of Fulda, Prussia,
who have been hunted for weeks past,
by the Inhabitants and the military,
have continued their nocturnal incur
sions into villages and lonely farms,
where they lay their hands on any
thing they can take. A few days ago
the population of Hunfeld, led by
Baron Schenk, a local landowner,
went in hot pursuit of the thieves,
and, tracing them to the border of a
forest, surprised them whilst feasting
on the spoil of the farm yards. A
pitched battle ensued between the two
parties. One gypsy was wounded.
by a shot from Baron Schenk's re-
%volver, but some of the band took him
on their shoulders and ran into the
forest, while the rest covered their
flight with a steady fire. Then, turn
ing, they fled in their turn and were
lost in the forest. The whole country
side is now searching for them.

Old Charcoal Burner,

The charcoal burner may still be
found, and that within 80 miles of Lon
don. This writer knows a charcoal
burner who has carried on his ancient
trade for 40 years in Surrey and Sus-
sex. You come suddenly upon the
piled dome of fine earth on hearth or
in woodland and near it is his neatly
constructed hut of withes, fern and
heather, with its rough corner posts
and little door.
There he lives during the whole pc
Rod of the calcining process, keeping
a sharp lookout to see that inquisitive
~passersby do not push an injuring
stick into the mound which might re-
suit in a sudden burst Of fame and.
the ruin of that particular lot of wood.
This ma mis- his own master; he knows
his markets and he makes a decent
living. a curious, solitary life-but
he knows all about the birds.-London

WRATH CAME IN VERY HANDY
So Mad After spat With Sweetheart,
That He Whipped a I
Bandit.

Sam Jones was mad clear through,
He had just had a quarrel with his.
sweetheart, and although he had con-
cealed his anger until he left her
home he was now boiling over with
rage. AS usual, Sam had got the
worst of the little spat, for in spite of
his 6 feet 2 and his great strength
his diminutive lady love had wound
him around her finger like SO much
ribbon.
As Sam alighted from the elevated;
train at his home station his cheeks
We're still flushed with helpless anger
and he was just spelling for a fight
or almost any kind of q chance to-
even up matters on some one. His
wish was destined to be granted
sooner than he knew, for when he
descended the elevated steps to the;
street a figure blocked his path, a re-,
volver was held a few inches below
his nose, and a gruff voice command
ed, Come on! Shell out, Jack!"
Without a seconds hesitation Sam
smashed the would-be robber full in
the face with his brawny fist and sent
him Keeling several PAGES backward
and stunned him so that he dropped
his weapon. Both Sam and the thief
were so surprised that they merely
stared at each other for a few sec
onds, then the latter remembered that
he possessed a good pair OF legs and
started to run at express speed.
Here's a good one" Sam laughed
grimly as he set out in hot pursuit!
of his assailant. "This fellow intend
ed to hold me up and now I'm going
to hold him up just to balance things,
a trile." Sam was soon forced to
give up the chase, however, for he
was burdened with a heavy ulster
while the holdup mar wore a light
sweater.
Gee chuckled Sam, 'if / hadn'tj
been as hot under the collar as I was,
as a result Of that little fuss with
Alice, I'll bet I'd have shelled out like.
a little lamb when he presented the
invitation. I'll go up there tomorrow
night with a big box of chocolates:

A special to the Sioux City Jour
nal gives a thrilling account of the
way in which a company of far
mers at Kaylor held up a freight
train and proceeded to confscate a
car load of binding twine. It
makes a very interesting story, the
only error in the report being that
it is not true. The foundation for
the story seems to be that a mer-
chant at Kaylor had q shipment Of
Irvine on the train, and in the same
car was a shipment for a merchant
in Trip. Kaylor being a flag sta
ton, with no agent, the shipment
for that place was not unloaded
there but was taken On to Trip,
the next station. The Trip mer-
chant there proceeded to unload
and sell not only his portion of the
shipment but that billed to the
Kaylor merchant as well. The
Kaylor merchant followed the train
to Trip and demanded his Irvine,
which by that time had been part
ly disposed of, and that was where
the trouble came in.
