6 THE AMERICAS DAILY T1MES-REC0RDER: THURSDAY, JULy23^891^ Notice The patrons of The Timks-Recorder are urged to pay promptly tlie bills which are now due for subscription, .ad vertising and job work for the past month. A newspaper has to pay its labor the cash weekly, and on the first of the month it is necessary for all its bills to be promptly collected. The current expenses of The Times- Recorder establishment arc about $50 per day, which must be paid every Monday without fail or delay. We aro therefore compelled to press collections; and while the small bill; that some owe may cause them to re gard the matter as insignificant, th small accounts aggregate several thou sand dollars, which we aro compelled to collect promptly to meet our obligations. A newspaper can’t run a week with out money; so come up to the captain's office and settle. Times Pirlisiiixg Comi'ANV. For a pleasant shave go to Dr. Elf dridge’s and buy one of those celebrrted Tower Razors which are guaranteed to Win Go to Lumpkin. Tully Bros, have made arrangements to move their feather renovator to Lump kin, where they will open for business.

Call at Thornton Wheatley’s and get bo one of those beautiful lawn we have just opened ows which A New Lodge. A lodge of Knights of Pythias is being organized at Lumpkin.

The other day a young English friend of mine picked np a two and a half cent Columbian silver coin—probably the smallest silver piece in the world. “That’s luck,” said the young man, who has an English syndicate deal on his hands He felt more confidence in the coin as the day advanced, for he showed it to several friends, all of whom curiously examined the piece and smiled with its possessor. He Anally went joy fully home late for dinner, and fonnd his wife fretting and with red eyes He be gan to chccr her np by pleasantly begin ning the topic of his afternoon and ex hibiting his And. "Luck! Luck! Don't you talk to me about luck!" she fairly shrieked, plung ing into the sofa cushions and hysterica. In tho course of half an hour's hard work sho had recovered suAiciently to inform him that sho had her pocket picked while out shopping and lost a dia mond ring sho had been afraid to wear and oil the money given her that morn ing for her summer clothes. Finally she braced up all at once, and said impera- tlvelyi "Gimme that coin!” As she pitched It out of tho window sho uttered tho usual fomiuino oath, “Drat the thing, theret” and both she and her husband felt better.—New York Herald. Chased by a Bullet. It was in a well known hotel in Bangor. A party of gentlemen were conversing on one subject and another. During a lull in the conversation one gentleman noticed a scar on tho hand of another, and inter rogated hi in as to the cause. The other answered that he received it in a very curious way, and told the following story in regard to it: • I got that wound in the battle of Get tysburg. 1 had been fighting all day and felt very tired, and so sat down on a rock and shot from there. I was just loading up my gun when a long, lean, lank fel low darted by ino, making for tho woods like a streak of greased lightning. 1 up with my gun and let drive at him, but he didn’t drop, and as I had shot just D99 and didn’t want to lose the thousanth, J started after him. 1 never saw a man run so fast in all iny adventurous life, and I could see that I was gaining upon him, but every once in a while 1 lost sight of him behind a tree or ruck. I noticed a lull in tho fight, and glancing aside I saw’ that l»oth armies had stopped fighting and were straining their eyes to see tho race. That raised my courage, and I forgot ill about being tired. Just then 1 made i spurt of speed, and as 1 did so I felt something strike my hand which spread jnt like tho fan of a windmill. Well, to make a long story short, 1 sanght up with him and was about to jollar him when he turned about and iried to stab me. 1 dodged his blow, and jnst then something hit him and he fell over dead. 1 sat down beside him to rest, and as I did so noticed blood trickling down my hand. On closer investigation I found that there was a bullet hole in the palm. The dead pian bad a bullet hole in his breast, and 1 am positive in my belief that both wounds were made by tho same ballet, and that it was the same ballet that I had fired at the Confederate. The race w’as so hot that 1 caught up with and passed It at some time during my chase, That i$ why I now wear that scar.—Bangor News. Letter List.

I was walking along a street given over to the smallest of shops and almost the cheapest of restaurant*, when 1 mota good looking ten-year-old boy in shabby, respectable clothes. It was autumn, and I carried a bnne-h of Aaming, splendid maple leaves, stopped, as if the sight of them really took bis breath away. , “Oh, give me one," ho gently ex claimed, in a manner that was more than polite. It lifted our interview straightway into some rare, snperhaman atmosphere, where perfect simplicity became a matter of conrso. Unfor tunately this was not so becoming to me ns to him. 1 said, “Oh, 1 bate tol” lint at the same time I began looking for the mean est little leaf 1 could And. When 1 had discovered and was presenting it, shame overcame mo, and torn with conflicting emotions, 1 said: 1 know I’m being horridly stingy."

The redoubtable Samuel Parr proved as great a bore to De Quineey as the dip lomatist did to Coleridge. The opium eater, sensitive little spirit that he was, did not often pnt himself in the way of being bored. He was completely taken by surprise, on his Arst meeting with the scholar of prodigious fame, to And Lta no better than a slander mongcring “old babbler.” Byron’s method of dealing with the gentry was even noro ingenious than Scott’s, who himself assumed tlie ardu ous task of boring his bore. Byron used to set Monk Lewis (whom be found as great a bore as Scott did) on to some “vivacious person," who peculiarly ab horred the trilic— as, for example, he says. Mine, do Sta. l or Hobhouso—and leave the pair to Aght it out together, while he quietly enjoyed his revenge. Bnt even this was more humane than tho conduct of those who, like Douglas Jerrold, leave their boro in tiio lurch. “Well, what’s going on today'/” asked the bore, lull primed for a siege. “I am,"returned the wit, hurrying remorse lessly past. “Do not dnll people boro you:” one of his companions at the breakfast table asked of the autocrat. “Madame,” was J>r. Holmes* suggestive reply, “all men are bore* except when we want them." —Exchange. BIsa Must Unto » Cook. Man always needs a cook. A college professor, bereft of his wife, who had done his hoosework for years, engaged a cook at greater wages than had been the allowanoe ho gave his wife. Ho bar gained for punctuality. "I must have my dinner at 12," ho stated. “I can’t get it ready till 1 o’clock," she answered. He yielded and changed the hour of his college recitation. The next weok she demanded a now stove, os tho old one was too low. “It costs too much,” he expostulated. “I can’t afford to hart my back," she repliod. Ho knew it was not so easy to And an other good cook, and bought the stove. A week Inter sho desired him to send for the carpenter that tho back staircoso might be chunged.

A story is told of Robert Emmet which proved his secretive power and resolu tion.

Ho immedi ately discovered his mistake nnd knew that death most shortly ensue unless be instantly swallowed the only antidote, chalk. Timid men wonld have torn nt the bell, roused all the family and sent for a stomach prnup. Emmet called noono, made no noise, bnt, stealing down stairs and unlocking tho front door, went into the stable, scraped sotno chalk which he knew to be there ahd took sufficient doses of it to neutralize the poison.—New York World.

An officer on Fulton street, Brooklyn, stopped a man who was shaking his head and Hst as he walked along, anil asked the cause of his excitement “Why, a fellow back there took mo for a fool!" was tlie forcible reply. “How/" “Why, ho offered to lick me for two cents, and tlie only money 1 have is a twenty dollar billl Does ho think fin fool enough to run all over town to get that change ! to give him two cents!’’— New Volk World.
