Not Any I'm Ours.

While on business trip to Florence
last week We had the privilege Of a close
inspection of a vehicle called a bicycle
This was the first time We ever saw one,
except at a distance. After we had fin
ished our inspection the owner showed us
how the old thing worked. and suggested
that we try 1t. We had never met with
anything on wheels which we could not
get on to and stay as long as We pleased,
and 1t was with a great deal OF self-con-
fidence that we tackled that bike. We
know how We got on. but as to how We
got OF will ever be puzzle to us. We
can't make out whether the thing buC ked
with US or ran away. but when We came
to we had scalp wound five Inches long,
cur nose was badly warped. and we had
a mouthful OF dirt and grass to chew on.
Some men might have tried II again, but
We didn't. When we want anything more

shall take all precautions to protect our

The story floating around town to the
effect that Capt. Kennedy, late arrival
from the East, was a horsethief who
had to cut sticks from Indiana is a base
canard and should be trampled on by
every respectable person The other
day, when the captain came TO this Of
fee to subscribe for The Kicker he re-
ferred to the scandal and produced doc
uments to prove his character. Instead
OF stealing a horse he drove on and sold
three cows which he supposed belonged
to an estate in which he had an interest.
He was not chased out of the State, but.
being all ready to go. he happened to
take a train just ahead of the Sheriff.
He didn't come here as a skulk from jus
tice, but TO see IL the pure air wouldn't
help his catarrh. He viii remain for sew
eral weeks yet, unless the Indiana Of
ficers come along and get his identity
mixed up. and We bespeak for him the
and good will OF all our people.
The day he arrived in town he was
asked to subscribe to the miserable apol-
ogy issued by the bow-legged critter
down the street. and his refusal to do
so probably set this vile calumny afioat.
We are glad that it is in our power to
put this matter right with the public.

nearly all Of October were wintry
and cold. but the year was brought
to close by remarkably mild De-
cember weather.
That the earth or the sun was cool
ing off were the favorite explanations
to account for that summerless year.
This theory was all the more firmly
held because the phenomena seemed
to be general, and in France all the
crops. except potatoes. were destroy
ed by the cold. In America the crops
were also vrey scant, and a famine
was escaped by only a narrow mar
