They tht-renpon decided to jiawn t Watches which were in their m.-m-sm :. and by attempting to do this they into the clutches of the law upon m picion. At the police station they ail their sweethearts, Minnie Perry and Hattie Dailey, of Canasbota, had ifivt-n them the watches, and Chief of Pi lice Dajwell nsed the telephone to find u! whether the 6tory was true. The yov.ir: women immediately swore out warrant -for the arreht of the young men. claim ing they had himply loaned them the watches, and United States Marshal J. E. Stimson came to Utica Tuesday an 1 took the twain back to their native town. They were arraigned before Justice Northrop, and the yonng women w-re not able to establish their charge of lar ceny. It apieared, however, that while they had given their hearts freely and wholly to the young men, they had only loaned them the watches, but the crime of larceny was not proven, and the young men were discharged from custody. At this point of the proceedings a con sultation took place. Ilemorse was dis played on both sides, and some oik of the four proposed that the whole affair conld be nicely arranged in a few mintitt by a couple of weddings. The part it s most interested agreed to this ple'isant way out of the mess, and Justice North rop tied the double knot with dispatch. Miss Dailey became tlie bride of Mr. Jones and Miss Perry was wedded to Mr. Smith. Utica Observer. Ho Kept Hi Youth. There was one man in New London before the college boat races had ended who was a refreshing treat to those who were in the Connecticut town. He ha 1 a son who was rowing in one of the big university boats, and he was an example ef the paternal college spirit which may gTOW old. but which seldom dies. Here was a man sixty years old, who sjient three weeks in New London following college oarsmen from one end of tii town to the other. Yon might see him with a couple of young men whose arm were locked in his. No years could r l him of the sentiment which hung arout . i his memory of his college days. He was an undergraduate again with the undergraduates who were classmates of one of his sons. Whenever he saw a college man whom he knew, whether the youngster were 100 or 500 yards av::y. the old man would hurry off, crying after the other. "Halloa, old man, wail a minute." That college boy forty years a graduate was one of the most popular men to be found near the famous oi four mile course on the historic Thames. New York Tribune.

A email terrier which accompanied them was bitten, and almost instantly swelled to twice his size. Mr. and Mrs. Beiia fled and called for Mr. F. to follow, but he stood his ground, and the snakes, which appeared to gather from every quarter, began to huddle round his feet and act as if they had found a long lost F. now picked up one and ordered Mr. B. to get an old barrel at a house near by. This was procured and Mr. V. put the reptiles into it and brought tliem back to English.

Indianapolis Sentinel. A Statue of Andreas Tlofer. The emperor Francis Joseph has vis ited the sculptor Natter's 6tudio to in spect the 6tatue which he is completing of Andreas Hofer, the heroic Tyrolese who defended his country and was 6hot by the French in 1809.

The emperor was very much pleased with the statue of the popular national hero. London News. A Companion Hero. A da j- or two before Frederick Brokaw lost his life there was enacted at Wash ington, Pa., a scene more tragic and not less heroic than that. Wulter Jones, aged fourteen years, and three young' i companions went in bathing and got be yond their depth. Jones could swim the others could not. But, instead of saving himself, as he could easily liav? done, he set about trying to rescue hi. drowning companions. He succeeded in piloting one of them safely to shore and was in the act of landing the others when the death grip of the boys about him bore him down and they all three perished together. Pittsburg Commer cial Gazette. A Cow's Motherly Lore Betray' Her Calf. In a pasture on a farm in East Hart ford, recently, one of the cows had a calf which no one of the farm hands was able to find the day after its birth. A eearch proved a failure until some one suggested a novel scheme. It was to bring a dog into the lot, when, in all probability, the cow would return to her calf to defend it. The dog was brought, and sure enough the cow started for a clump of bushes, and among them the calf was found, where the leaves had k concealed it.

Pall Mall Gazette. Venerable Prelates. The announcement that Bishop Ilrmt ington at the age of seventy-two asks for assistance because the duties of his dio cese are beyond his ability to discharge them, reminds us that this active a:.! indefatigable prelate is one of our ven erable men. Bishop Clark, who is thv acting diocesan in Massachusetts today, is over eighty and exhibits but few o.' the marks of old age. Bishop Coxe is already several years beyond threescore and ten. and is still a vigorous and active man. Bishop Williams, of Connecticut, the present primate of the Episcop;;; church, is very nearly seventy-five and is still in charge of his diocese, thou-'.: his duties fall heavily upon him. Bish . Littlejohn, of Long Island, is not f;;r from seventy, and must be classed amon.. these older men. Boston Herald. New York Produces the Most Beans. "Can I tell you something about beans?" said B. B.

About the acreage it is larger in New York state than it has been for the last ten years, and the Empire State pro duces practically all of the beans pro duced in the United States. Last year the domestic crop was small, and tin foreigners made a handsome thing by sending their beans here. But this year I think the New York farmers will get the benefit of the market." New York Tribune. A Carious Freak of Lightning. To strike and shatter into splinters a dozen telegraph poles, one after the other, is rather curious. Lightning did this on Cemetery Hill road, near Coates ville.
