Miss Falwell offered to secure a nurse from Atlanta, but the patient expired before this could have been done. Conuderable discussion arose over the incident and a report of it was sent to Mrs. J. R.

At least that is the way the certain " j_ young man explained it to the party ' e who informs] the person who.tc.M the ' n '"Titer. n The whole story goes something like this: (j On last Saturday night a party of young men wer% congregated about a ^ e warm stove in Mt. Croghan, drinking 5_ cheerless fizz-water and trying to feel , convivial. So far the evening had not 0 j been a success. There seemed to be a lack of enthusiasm. . 'a n Finally one of the bolder spirits M ? suircested tbsit o?- i-*:? ( ^ or, V..W ??t 1IVV1C r>vi III U I?l t lull v" 0 would be a pood thing. Mis motion 1 was seconded and unanimously adopt- n< ed. dt n m . e But where to secure the stimulant? M ? Now it must be said that these ai n young men were not sophisticated in ^ the art of acquiring "hootch" and so T* - far as they knew Mt. Croghan and its - cnvirins were as dry as the great Am- 'e t erican desert. However, one of the St , number remembered that a certain M young man, whose nose bore a de- ? , cided rose tint and whose gait was v often unsteady, ought to know where j to locate a sightless pig, if such a t>f. j thing existed. Thereupon ensued a ^ j search for the certain young man. V) He was found. *(i ' He thought he could find a half a j gallon jar of the stuff that cheers if j I the crowd would dig up ten bucks. j j Then ten was soon contributed and j the certain young man went forth to | exchange it for "dew" and the bunch ?e ! went back to the fire to wait his re- ?u j turn. j g I After several dreary hours ?fi]? j watchful waiting the chairman of the _ j association decided that the certain _ ' young man had flimmed them out of T ! their ten. Thereupon each and every I j member jof?the- party swore venI geance and the party broke up, each ? | one going his own separate way. When one of the party had about reached his home he heard some one aiipiuauiung out ot tne darkness, singisg lustily and off key. Something familiar in the tones caused him to wait until the singer staggered into view. In the singing, staggering individual was recognized a certain young man, now two hours overdue with the half gallon of "skee." "Hey, you, where is that stufF for which we dug up that ten bucks?" impatiently quoth the sober one. "Shorry, ole man, hie, but couldn't get a drop," answered the inebriated one. ? "Then come across with that tenj spot." | "Shorry again, ole sport, but loss j it, los' it in the dark." This was too much for the sober one and he walloped the certain I young man on the jaw. ? And they went to it. The certain young man became aroused and he seemed to have punch and stamina despite his contents. As the fracas waxed warm others collected, among them friends of both parties, and some of them rudely entered the fight without being invited. Finally a pistol barked and belched in the nipht. Not once but several ? times. A certain younp: man announced that he was shot and the fun ceased. FOR A COMPR1 LINE (
