A little old womau with a sharp noso

grocery store buying supplies. Among
other things she brought iu from her
curt was u battle scarred jug, which she
ordered to be filled with treacle.
At last, when her parchaeoa were
completed, she began looking over the
account, item by item, before paying.
“What’sthis?” shuexclaimed. “You
have charged mo for two gallons and a
half of treacle.’’
“Yts, ma’am.”
“But that jug holds only two gal
lons. ”
“You must bo mistaken. I measured
the treacle carefully, and it took two
gallons and a half to fill it.”
“Well,.” said the old woman with a
sigh, .“x don’t so much mind having to
pay for the treacle, but I do object to
having the old jog strained by your
putting in half a gallon more than it
will hold.”—Strand Magazine.

/ Written From Wilhe,
Willie, 8. C., July 9.—War is per
haps a drastic measure by which to
bring about national prosperity, but
there is hardly any doubt but what
we will, after this war is over, have
an area of prosperity unprecedented
in the history of nations.
Spain will most assuredly have to
pay to our government an indemnity,
at least, to the amount of the actual
expences of tho war, and while at
first glance, it would seem that that
would be only reembursing us for
what we have spent, it will, in reality
be adding just that much to the fi
nances of our country. From the
fact that the money paid out in war
expences, is, to a great extent, paid
out to the people of oar own country.
Why the government has run the war
so far without having to go in debt
one cent, that is if the maxim, that
the people are the government is
true. It is true that the government
has issued bonds to the amount of
two hundred millions of dollars, but
the entire amount of them has been
subscribed for and, taken up by the
people, and is also true that they
will get 3 per cent, interest on their
money, but we think that the benefit
derived by the country, at large will
very much over balance the small
amount of interest paid on the bonds.
I invariably believe that it would bo
a capitol plan, even in time of peace,
when even the money market become
stringent, or in other words, during a
“panic,” for the government to issue
bonds to be subscribed for solely by
the people, thereby drawing the
money of the country from saving
banks and putting it into circula
tion.
Bill has decided to volunteer to go
to Cuba, just us soon as they get all
of the Spaniards killed out, but he
will have to be sure that they are all
dead, he would be afraid to face, even
a wounded Spaniard, you know he
might happen to get hold of a gun.
Bill.

(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Grovek, N. C., July 12.—The cool
and refreshing breezes are still blow
ing from the north. It seems this
morning as if autumn was upon us.
The thermometer stands at 08 de
grees, which seems very low for mid
summer.
The picnic at King’s Mountain bat
tle ground was quite a success. There
were just plenty of good things to eat
and a large crowd to eat them. The
people were not so generous with
their dinner us usual. They had no
public table as had been their cus
tom at that place, but all who wished
went out and spread dinner together.
I hope all who deserved dinner got
it. I believe those who failed to get
dinner got a plenty of corn cider.
Rev. Mr. Bally, of Cowpens, de
livered an excellent address on “his
tory.” Quite a large crowd gathered
around the stand and listened atten
tively while he spoke of tho great
battle fought on that glorious old
hill, aa well as a number of other
battles fought elsewhere.
Mr. J.E. North, depot agent of this
place accompanied by hia family, will
make an extended visit to Atlanta
soon.

The burglar who doea goveral “jobe”
and eludes the officers of the law is a
keen observer, a man of forethought,
and ono whose executive ability is un
questioned. Houses are not entered be
cause they have brownstono fronts, nor
are stores broken into by the profes
sional thief without an investigation.
When the skillful burglar is to do a
“job,” he studies the habits of the resi
dent or proprietor. In a case in Troy a
few years ago a jewelry store was rob
bed. Apparently there was not a clew.
Detectives were placed on tho case and
named the thieves by the method em
ployed in getting into tho store, and
subseqnently the thieves were convicted.
Certain burglars always enter a cellar
and coma up through stairs, floor or
trapdoors. Others have skeleton keys.
Others go above and come down stairs.
Some break in rear and others front
doors. In the robbery above referred to
tho two thieves had been iu Troy three
successive Saturday nights. They had
fastened a silk thread on all entrances
iu such a way that if any one entered
or left the store the thread would be
broken. Thns tho bnrglurs learned that
the proprietor and olerks did not visit
the store after closing Saturday night
until Sunday. The fourth Saturday
night they “cracked” the safe. Except
for their methodical way of entering
(by the cellar) no snspioion would have
attached itself to them.—Troy Times.

A Diai-UHted Hero.
The story of Sergeant Walker, who
was kept prisoner for six weeks by the
Afridis and was court martiuled for
being “absent without leave,” reminds
me of an Indian tale of 1757, when a
man-o’-war’s man, Struhan by name,
captured almost single banded one of
tho forts on the Hoogly. The fort,
which was strongly situated, was in
vested by the admiral, and Strabau,
during the time of midday repose, wan
dered off “on hia own” in its direction.
Gaining the walls without discovery,
be took it into bis head to scale a breach
made by tho cannon of the ships, and
on reaching the platform he flourished
his cutlass and fired his pistol ut “the
niggurs,” shouting, “The place is
mine!”
The native soldiers attacked him, and
ho held his own with indomitable pluck
till re-enforced by one or two other tars
who had straggled out of camp and
beard his huzzas. The enemy, unpre
pared from this ill timed attack and
fearing farther invaders, fled from tho
fort upon the opposite side, leaving 20
cannon and a large store of ammuni
tion. Mach to Strahan’s surprise, he
was lectured by the admiral for his
breach of discipline, and be was dis
missed with bints of future punish
ment. “Well,” said Strahan, “if I’m
flogged for this here action, I’m d d
if I ever takes another fort as long ns I
lives!”--London Sketch.
