Aii HinuMng in. l'lt iii ou.ii/i>il in
one of the courtrooms of tlie of the
courthouse yesterday A cass was on
trial involving the right of the de
fendant to erect a fence between his
property and that of the plaintiff.
The defendant claimed that he wauled
to build this fence to keep his chick
ens out of his neighbor’s yatd, and
the plaintiff claimed that the fence
would mar the beauty of hi* l lace.
There were < xceilent a\vi* on
b ith sides and tho ca*e wa* being
stubbornly contested. It bad al
ready consumed nearly all the day
when the wife of the plaintiff was
placed on the stand. Ihe following
examination was then conducted by
the defendant's lawyer:
“1 understand you claim that you
have a very p ret tv place and that it is
k- pt neat and clean. Is that sot”
‘•Yes sir.”
* Now. I am told you raised several
Jer. ey cows on your place. Is that
eo?”
“Yes, sir”
“And you think you can keep a
place neat and clean when you’ve go
a lot of cattle running around loose,
do you?"’
Yes sir,” was the reply.
“And I'm also told that you keep a
couplo of speckled pomes out on that
place. I suppose they do not hinder
you in your efforts to keep it clean?
‘ No, sir.”
“Then you keep one other animal
on this place of yours—a dog, is it
not?’’
“Two dogs ar.d a purp,” was the
reply.
“Them is mighty smart dogs, ain’t
they?”
There was just the suspicion of a
twinkle in the lawyer’s eye. The fair
defendant noted tins, and she deliver
ed a scathing reply.
“Well, one ef the dogs lias got a
better diploma than you’ve got,”

LIKE A GREAT RAILWAY.
With its brandies running in even

Composition on “Man.”
This composition on “man” is said
to be the production of an old maid:
“Man is a two-legged animal that
chows tobacco and walks on tbe fork
ed end. Most men are born: we
never heard of but one that wasn’t
and he was made of mud fora sample.
Man’s life is full of disapointments,
growls and pipes. He goes forth like
a lion in tbe morning and leaves the
wood for his wife to chop and in the
evening sneaketh home tvitn his pants
ripped and his heels gone and raising
cane about hard times. He has the
grip on road working days and walks
twenty miles to a circus. He will
chase a rabbit four miles through tbe
snow and then borrow a horse to riae
a half mile to the post-office.”

Governor Parris remonstrated with him
for taking his departure on that day
and said, ‘lf you will postpone yonr trip

Trouble
When the yellow flag of quarantine
is hoisted over a dwelling it means disease
and danger. So when the yellow flag
flies in the face —when tho cheek is sallow
and the clear white of the eye is dyed
saffron there is danger. It is liver
trouble. The liver is one of the most im
portant organs of the body. On the
proper discharge of its functions depend
human health and happiness. When the
liver fails of its duty, poisons at once be
gin to generate, and other organs of the
body become involved. Never neglect
the liver if you value health. If you are
Buffering from liver trouble, begin at
once the use of Ayer’s Pills and you will
find prompt relief and permanent cure.
“I was so weakened by liver trouble that
I could scarcely lift my head. While in
this condition I began the use of Ayer’s
Pills, and finding almost immediate benefit,
continued their use until I was cured of
my complaint.”

The Lion of K. 0..
There aro lions and lions, but the
lion of loul is the lion of Hellas, says
Professor J. Irving Marinate in The At
lantic. The lions on guard above the
gate of Mycenas may be older, but they
have lost their heads and therewith
their main majesty. The lion sentinel
over Leonidas’ grave at Thermopylae
disappeared ages ago, though we still
possess the inscription written for it by
Simonides:
Of beasts the bravest 1, of mortals ho,
Upon this mound of stone now watched by mo.
The lion of Chteroneia commemorates
a great and definite event, but lie has
been broken to pieces. Better lnck has
atteued the lion of Keoa Couched here
on bis flank in the living rock, with re
verted bead, 28 feet from tip to tail,
every feature perfect, full of life and
majesty, one can hardly think of him as
a mere image made with hands. He
looks rather as if in some prehistoric
age—tho colossus of his kind—he might
have lain down here alive and turned
to stone, possibly after clearing the
island of its first occupants, for there is
a myth handed down to us by an old
writer that Keos was originally inhabit
ed by the nymphs until they were scared
away by a lion and fled to Karystos,
leaving to the “jumping off place” tbs
name of Lion point At all events tho
monument and the myth make a perfect
fit. Our :• is ibe very beast to strifes
terror into nymphs or any other unwel
oorne neighbors.
Horae. Greeley'. Eccentric Ideas.
Even his eccentric ideas were made
plausible by his treatment. I heard him
say once that what was then thought to
be the Great American desert ought to
be planted with Canada thistles so as to
give nature some sort of a green start,
when other vegetation might be made
to follow. But the trouble is Canada
thistles, like any other thing inspired
by “pure enssednesa,” will only grow
and thrive where they ought not to.
Find a place where their presence would
do some good, and, as in the Humpty
Dumpty case, “all the king’s horses and
all the king’s men” could not fasten
them there. This perverseness suggests
in a certain way the small boys' con
ception of good and bad-—his enchiridion
of nature and life.
"What’s fun,” he said, “Is always
wicked; what we don’t want to do is
pious ”
Organ Music and Oriran Playing.
Organ musio reached its climax with
Bach. It may perhaps be said tbat all
music did. At any rate, one thing is
certain —viz, if there has been any prog
ress in music since the day of Bach, it
has been due to him. Bach’s musio is
polyphonic, and polyphony is true
rnusip. To its foundation upon this
school is due tbe fact that tborG has
been no decadence in music in Ger
many. There has been no advance in
polyphony siuco the days of Bacb. Such
Advance as has been made has been in
originality and boldness of modulation.
For puro organ musio Bach still is
and probably will always remain the
greatest of all composers. Even with
all tho modern mechanical appliances
that have been attached to the organ,
bis works are still very difficult—per
haps the most difficult of organ compo
sitions. He must have been as great an
organist as be was a composer That he
should have been able to play upon the
organ of his day works so exacting in
teehuiquo as his own is simply marvel
ous.
It is one of the phenomena of musical
history that, while orchestral, operatic
and other branches of music were in
their infancy in Bach’s day and have
developed since then, Bach brought or
gan music to its climax. He was not tbe
small source whence flowed a rivulot
which in time was to expand into a
broad stream ; he was tho broad stream
itself. The word “Bach” in German
means a brook, which led a famous Ger
man composer to say pnnniugly that
this great master was not a Baoh, bnt
an ocean.—Forum.
“There’s no use in talking,” says
