Several days ago Dr. Alvey, says the Morganfield (Ky.) Sun, of Waverly, drove to town in a huggy. Upon his ar- rival here he discovered that one of his hens had riddea all the way with him in the back end nf the buggy. The doc- tor had to go further down the road, No he "shoved" the hen out of the ve- hicle and left ber here. Dr. Alvey was gone all that day and night and a part of the next. The hen, in the meantime, found her way to Jailer Snodgrass' chicken coop, where she spent the night. When Dr. Alvey re- turned to Morganfield the next day he put his horse in a livery stable, and, of course, the huggy belonging to the mediciae man was only one of a large number about the stahle. But, strange to say. that old ben seemed to know when the doctor returned, and. with a remarknhle display of animal instinel, picked out h's huggy, gol back iuto her place and waited for the doctor to start back home.

A harn in Aroostook, Me., has long gone unshingled because the farmer w ho owned it was too infirm to climb to the roof, while one of his sons had gour to war in the Ph lippines and the other to the Klondike. The uther day, how. ver, the farmer's only daughter came home from the normal achuol and shin- gled the bara as well as any mau in town could have done, and she didn't onre pound her fingers with the ham- mer, either.

FISHING IN THE WEST.

A Favorite Place with Former Presl. dent Harrison for Casting · Line,

Sneb streanis as the Fox river of !!!. ... . the Kankakee, the While or the Tippecanoe of Indiana, afford at times even to-day very good >port to the fly rod.

Ex-President Harrison and a few ch sen friends often take a fly-fishing trip for bass along the T'ppecaaor. which was once a fan us hass water and even vel is aut quite s . ro of ils ancieut g ors. These gentlemen would as soon think of grand larceny or high- way robbery as : enter'ain the idea of using anything but the fly on the small mouths of the Tippecanoe. This stream may he waded oa many of its best reaches, though it is best to take along a boat, and some anglers prefer to fish it from a hoat all the way. The bass of this river are very good fighters, and show the leaping instinct of the small-mouth species, sometimes spring- ing out higher than one's head as one stands plaviag the fish. The average run is a pound or thereahonts, though often one will take a fish very much heavier. The bucktail flies are good on the Tippecanoe, though this seems to be also a water where one may with profit iadnige ia his aotions for hright- colored mil inery in laring out one's day's supply of flies. The Ferguson and the silver doctor are sometimes nsed effectively, and the Seth Green, with a cinnamon wing, has been found good upon occasion, though as to these mal- ters it is not well to set forth dogma. There is no ultimate truth discoverable ja the matter of hass flies in stream fishing. This method we may as well call "broad fishing." since it is followed at all times of the day aad on all parts of the water. This is late spring and summer fishing, when the hass are ly- ing about ia the weedy pockets, under logs, or close to sharp hanks, and this method, of course, ends when the cold weather comes and the bass hegin to congregate in the deep holes.

The Fox river in the summer time of- fers an necasional evening of good fly fishing at such points as the reefs near Clintonville or E:gin, when the bass are taking the natural fly in the cooler part of the day, and oa this river as well as the Kankakee one may now and then pick ont a hass from midstream even ia the middle of the day, while the fish are Iring pretty well down and only look- jag np lazily at the panorama which sa'ls past them ontlined against the sky. This sort of fly fishing, not re- siricled absolutely to any part of the water, hut intended for any fish thal may happen to be lying about loose. is the most common form of fly fishing. and is sometimes very successful when the bass are in the humor .- Chicago Record.

Amt]-ClImax In a Mine. Prof. Weed, the noted geologist, re- cently had a thrilling and hair-raising experience in Butte. He was descend- ing a mine on a ladder and when sev- eral hundred feet down the ladder parted, leaving him suspended in the dark. He hung to the ruund with all the tenacity bis being was capable of, determined to strain the very last drop of his vitality in the hope that succor would come. He cried out for help. but the deep, dark walls returned his voice unanswered. His whole life carac back to him in vivid retrospection ; per. / spiration dripped from his forehead as be realized that only for a short time could he withstaad the awful strain. And then be dropped. Four inches be- low him he struck a heavy body, which afterward proved to be the globe .- Chicago Chronicle.

ACCIDENTS TO BANKNOTES.

tmed .. Gaslighters, Chewed Dogs and llalled with ('nbhage.

"While it cannot he stated that it is an American habit to light Inmps and gus with money," expla urd an official of the redemption division of the irras- nry department 10 a Star reporter. "there are a number who appenr ae- tually to have money to burn, and who 1.ow and then burn it. There are more morey burners, too, than come to the front and demnad a redemption of their partly destroyett money, for some peo- ple lesitate before they are willing to appear in such an indefensible posi- tion. I don't want to be understood as stating that it neeurs every day. for that would probably be strriching it somewhat, but it Is a fuet that it oc- curs many more times Than would be supposed. A case of the kind came to the division last week. where a fel- low lighted a match at the door of his room and from that lighird whint he supposed was a piece of paper which he had in his pocket. Ile started with The lighted paper to find the gas jet. lle found it, und as he hlew out his lighied paper he ascertainrd, to his surprise and disgust, that his taper was a ten-dollar bill. more than half of which had been burard. In his communication to the sverelary of the treasury, to whom he was advised to write. he admitted that he was a fool and deserved n kiek instead of any- thing else, hut said as grass was rather short with him he would have to appeal for redemption. He furnished the nec- essary affidavits which under the law have to be filed in such cases, and a new bill was sent him for the half-burned note which he sent in for redemption. Lots of times people burn money, but make no claim for redemption, suppos- ing that they have no redress in the matter. But the treasury department does not as a rule hunt up trouble, so unless the claim is made none is sng- gested.

"I had a case somewhat in the same dne recently, and there are frequent similar occurrences, as where a one- dollar dog puppy ate up two-thirds of n five-dollar note. "The pup was of a playful disposition,' wrote the man who ownet! it, 'and, though I saw him playing with the note. I did not recog- nize it as money. But he won't play any more in my back-yard.' Later on, when the puppy got tired plaring with it, the owner discovered that the dog had been amusing himself with a note which had by accident fallen on the Hoor. The affidavits in the case were very amusing, but the man got his remnant of a note redeemed at its full value. The lamp and gas-lighting peo- ple are hy great odds in the majority. Out of a number of such cases the per- centage of women sufferers is so small ha; it can almost he said they don't lose money hy using it as lighters. 1 knew of a woman who boiled almost out of existence several hills which hy some means got in the folds of the leaves of a hend of cabbage. The money dropped into the basket on her way back from the market. The notes were pretty well wrecked, for the cnb- bage was being cut up when they were discovered, but there was enough left on which to base a redemption."- Washington Star.
