he Kiss That Went Astray By JOHN TURNLEE Tho funniest case of saying goodby between a pair of lovers parting for good because they couldn't marry hap pened to n friend of mine, Wlllnrd Sey mour. Wlllnrd met Nancy Hargrove in the sweet summer time In the coun try when neither had anything to do but talk about love, think about love, dream about love, and when any two j;oung persons of opposite sex are In that situation there is bound to be a love affair between them. Wlllnrd and Nancy spent two weeks together and would have made n match If It had not been that neither had the wherewithal to make a nest, and both realized that such was necessary. The time was long enough to cause them ft rfian to marrv. nut not innt mimicii to cause them to do what they consid ered n foolish thing. Wlllnrd might have been willing to take the risk, but Najlcy, who was a sensible, farseelng gil, would not henr of It. Wlllnrd said when the parting time came that Nuncy might give him just one kiss. She said she would see about It Wlllnrd had often as a child heard his mother say when he wanted some thing that she would see about It, and be always got It. So when Nancy said It he felt sure that the kiss would be his. Funny, Isn't it. that fate should have produced a lot of trouble and Anally forced these two to marry on account Of a kiss that was not even definitely promised? When the lovers left the summer re sort, where they had passed two deli cious weeks, they went from the same railway station at 10 o'clock at ni;:!it. Wlllnrd was to go on one train. Nancy on another. When Wlllnrd went to the station he had not received his kiss. He arrived on a dark side of Un building iiikI saw a woman walking back and forth whom he mistook for Nancy. It occurred to him that she was waiting there In the dark to give Im the farewell kiss, Going up to er, he put his arms around her. e woman pushed him away, but Wiy coy damsel would do that, and ,'lllard persisted. The woman cried loudly for help. Tho agent came uround. She accused Wlllard of insulting her. and there was a scene. She was very angry and insisted on the agent's tele phoning for the police. He did so. They came, and on the woman's promising to appear against the prisoner lie was taken to jail. Nancy came up just in time to see her lover marched off. He was per mitted to explain the matter to her. and she believed his story. She concluded to remain over and await the trial. The next morning Wlllnrd was brought up before a judge who had acquired the name of the little red god of war from the fact that his bristling hair and whiskers were of a fiery red hue and his disposition was as fiery ns his hair. It was seldom that a case of any importance came before him. and here was one of a gentleman In nppenrance at least who was accused of n heinous crime. Besides, the pris oner was a summer citv man. no nnir- to n clan that looked down on the enizens of the town. he woman gave her testimony, and Wlllard admitted the fact, but denied criminality, declaring that he had mis taken the woman for another. When he was asked what other he declined to answer on the ground that he was not required to give the other person away. Nancy was in court in a back seat. She longed to save her lover by testifying that she was the person the prisoner had intended to kiss. Hut to do that she must acknowledge their engngemeut to the world. The trial was brief, and tho prison er wns found guilty under Instructions from the little red god of war that did not admit of an acquittal. Then t lie Judge gave 1dm a long discourse on thoo excrescences of society whose wealth led them to believe they could commit any crime with impunity. The prisoner was given to understand that lie could not offend the morals of a town that had suffered only too often from the misdeeds of summer visitors. Since the townspeople made their liv ing from summer boarders, this was, to say the least, unjust to the class re ferred to. Finally he sentenced the dculprit to six months in Jail. i "Your honor." cried n feminine voice from the rear of the room. "I desire to l. ....i .1... ....,! I rpi... j. .1 .1....- 14 ........ -i ill: iiiuju- ucfiiuuu nun u wan iuu thnt he would move for a new trial thnt would cost the county consider able money, and in View of this threat ened expenditure Uie judge consented to hear what Nancy had to say. She took tho stand and told tho story as 1 have told It, or as much of It as was necessary. Tho judge. In order to save costs, directed tho jury to retire again and bring in n new verdict. This they did, and the prisoner Avns acquitted. A number of friends and acquaint ances of both parties attended the trial and at tho end gathered about Wll lnrd and Nancy with congratulations both as to Wlllard's escape from n long imprisonment and their engagement There was nothing for them to do but to acknowledge tho latter, or at least to make no denial of It, and. since they had been thus thrown together before the world by a kiss they had not en Joyed, after deliberation (Including the kiss as Intended) they concluded to accept the decree of fate and were ac cordlngly, after n few months' engage- ient, married. A Curious Illusion. What has come to be called tho Tlrchole" In the Ycllowstono National park Is a large hot spring from the bottom of which, to all nppenrancos, a light colored llnnie Is constantly issu ing, only to be extinguished In the wa ter before It reaches the surface. At times It has a distinct ruddy tinge, and it always flickers back and forth like tho lambent tlnme of a torch. When seen under favorable conditions the illusion Is perfect and the beholder Is sure that he has at last caught a glimpse of tho hidden fires which pro duce tho weird phenomena of this re gion. Hut It Is only illusion. Through a fissure In the rock supcrhented steam escapes and divides the water Just as bubbles do on a small scale. Tho re flection from the surface thus formed accounts for the appearance, which Is intensified by the black background formed by the sides and bottom of tire pool. "The Yellowstone National Park," by Hiram Martin Chittenden. Drigadler General, U. S. A., Retired. , Prolific Fungi. An average sized mushroom will pro duce as many as 1,800,000,000 siores, and n common toadstool shaggy cap has been shown to produce as many ns 5,000,000,000. Fortunately for the oth er Inhabitants of the world, however, tho probability of successful growth of any given siore Is somewhat remote. Tho mushroom or toadstool plant Is formed by line dlmentous threads which ramify beneath the soil, and If we assume that a successful plnnt of tho mushroom or shaggy caps produces as many as ten mushrooms or toad stools we find that the chance against successful growth to maturity is re spectively about 18,000,000,000 and CO. 000,000 to one in the two species men tioned. Even more prolific than tho mushrooms and toadstools proper la the giant puffball, a large specimen of which hns been known to produce as many ns 7,000,000,000,000 spores. Lon don Knowledge. Two Convincing Reasons. Lord Peterborough, who lived in the reign of Queen Anne, was very frolic some, and one day, seeing from his carriage a dancing master with pearl colored stockings lightly stepping over the broad stones and picking his way in extremely dirty wenther, ho alight ed and ran after him with drawn sword in order to drive him into the mud, but into which he, of course, followed himself. This nobleman was once tak en for tho Duke of Marlborough and wns mobbed In consequence. The duke was then In disgrace with the people, and Lord Peterborough was about to be roughly handled. Turning to them, he snld: "Gentlemen, I enn convince you by two reasons that 1 am not the Duke of Marlborough. In the first place. I have only 5 guineas in my pocket, and, In the second, they are heartily at your service." Burned For Thirty Years. Some illicit whisky distillers oce set up their plnnt in the workings of n disused coal mine on u lonely part of the South Sauehic coal field, In Scot land, but an accident compelled tlicni to change their quarters. They discov ered that one of their furnaces had cnused a smoldering fire In the aban doned coal seam, and, falling in their efforts to extinguish it. the "moon shiners" left the place In a hurry with out reporting the occurrence to the au thorities. The fire in the old pit con tinued to smolder until at night the flames. Issuing from the mouth of the shaft, attracted the attention of the in habitants around. Hut It was found that the fire had reached such n point that all attempts to put It out proved futile, it burned Itself out in thirty years. London Mall. Defeated Himself.

Otnntia World-Hornld, How a Clodhopper Made a General's Reputation By F. A. M1TCHEL Johnny Hunker enlisted In 1S01 In an Ohio regiment to "fight for Abra ham Lincoln's daughter," as the phrase had It in those days. Johnny was a farmer's boy and didn't know any more about war than he did about manag ing a circus. It so happened that ho fell under the command of a general who had graduated In the engineer corps at West Point, had been sent nbroad during the Crimean wnr to observe the strategy of Uuroiniau ar mies nnd had written a report which hnd cnused him six years later to be picked out for one of the great com manders of the war between the states, 'n short he wns nt the apex of the pyramid of military intelligence, while Johnny wns one of the many thou sands who formed the bnsc. The force that Johnny served with formed the extremo of the right wing of an army whoso commander was anxious to advance, but a fort so situ ated In a pocket In the hills that It was difficult to take was delaying him. for It Is a military principle thnt nn army must not lcavu a fortification in its rear. The scientific soldier who commanded this wing wns approach ing the fortification In accordance with the principles of military engineering In other words, by zigzag trenches. The only objection to this plan of re ducing the fort was that it took a lot of time nnd delayed nn army of 70.000 men from advancing. Meanwhile the men who composed the army were costing the government Immense sums of money, were dying of camp fever and were getting generally demoral ized. Johnny Hunker, who didn't know enough about military matters to keep himself In camp unless permitted to go elsewhere, one night, feeling restless, stole out without waking his tent mntes, evaded the camp guard and wandered away. He was too stupid to avoid going in the direction of the enemy, and while men were crouching In tho trenches he was stumbling along In the dark toward the fortification they were trying to dig out Presently lie came to a dirt wall. Lighting n match, he saw that it was Inclined and about ten feet high, but he thought he could climb it and ho did. At tho top he laid his hands on something that felt like a log. Hy feeling along it he found that it was a log. Vaulting over It, he proceeded along tho top of the dirt wall, which was some eight feet thick, nnd came to nether log. In this way he discovered a number of logs side by side on top of the dirt wall. Hearing a storm of snores below him, he concluded that they might come from Confederates, and concluded to retrace his steps. Sliding down the in cline, he wns groping his way back, as he supposed, over the same route by which he had come, when suddenly he dropped Into a trench, falling on sev eral sleeping men Angry at being disturbed in their slumbers, they reiorted Johnny's nj pearance among them, stntlng that he was likely a spy from the fort who hnd lost his bearings and fallen into u trap. The result was that the young man was sent to the rear In care of an officer, who was directed, to turn him In as a captured spy. In the morning Johnny's capture was reported to the general nnd nfter breakfast a staff officer was sent to bring him to headquarters. When Johnny appeared the general began to question htm. "Who are you?" John Hunker of Company B, th Ohio." The genernl sent for the cnptnln of Conipnny H nnd went on with his ques tioning. Ho asked Johnny how he hap pened to bo out among the trenches at night, nnd Johnny told the story. When he came to the dirt wall, as he called It. and the logs the general pricked up his ears. He asked Johnny how many men he hnd heard snoring, and Johnny replied, "A hull lot" On being asked what ho meant by "a hull lot" Johnny explained, "There must 'a' been four or five of 'em." While the questioning wns going on Johnny's cnptnln came In and Identi fied blm as a private la his command. Ho was very severe In his manner to the culprit, being mortified that one of his men should have been caught In such n breach of discipline. Within half an hour nfter tho inter view between Johnny nnd his com mander the right wing of tho army was drawn up In line of battle and an i order given to march upon tho fort When the men reached It they clam bered up the sides to tho parapet, as Johnny had done tho night before, without drawing a single shot They found that what ho hnd supposed to be a row of logs were Quaker guns that Is, logs shaped to represent cannon. A few lean Confederates In butternut were seen clambering up the hillside. They had been In charge of tho fort I and kept the guns from falling off their supports. The commanding general wns In formed that a scout had discovered that the fort was practically deserted. The commander of the right wing wns promoted, nnd the nrmy advanced. As for Johnny, ho was killed during tho campaign that followed and never knew thnt he had informed one of the most scientific strategists In tho nrmy that he was besieging a deserted fort. Perhaps It was ns well, since the gen ernl emerged from tho wnr with great honors, and It would bo a pity If It hud ' boon known that a stupid clodhopper I had been nt the bottom of his rise.
