Old Sam Johnson, who lives down in a Kennebec county town, is about t he sourest and most straitlaced fellow you ever aw, says the Lewiston Jour nal. The other day he heard an awful clatter out on a long hill near his house. He got out to the scene just in time to see his son Jed mount the ox eart. hold up the tongue ami coast down the hill with a thunderous roar and a cloud of dust. The old man started on the trail down the hill. pick ing up a club on the way and yelling for Jed to come back and take a lick ing. Hut the nearer he got to the trembling Jed the more the real nov elty and humor appealed to him. When he got to the foot of the hill he was grinning like a "chessy cat," as Jed afterward declared. "What in timenation you doin with that ox cart, Jed?" "By gorry, dad. I'm a-slidin' down hill in er, dad; and it's more fun 'an de Injuns. Jest help me toost 'er up hill and take a ride," said Jed, taking courage from his father's grin. "You sassy imp," sputtered Sam; "I'm a good mind to welt you." "Oh, dad, come on; it's slather9 of fun." "Not by a darned shot! And 'sides, some one may see me." "(lit out; they won't neither. Take holt here an1 well run 'er up hill." The old man couldn't resist. Chuck ling, he helped push the cart up hill; chuckling still, he crawled in, and he tittered as he told Jed to "hold tight an' steer straight." Away they went. But they had just got under headway when a team came jogging around a bend in the road at the foot of the hill. The old ox cart roared down in its headlong rush. A wicked smash-up seemed imminent. The frightened Jed, bewildered by a volley of squawks and yells, yanked the tongue about, and the Hying eart sheered for the fields. It careered wildly, hopped the highway gutter, crashed over a stone wall and came to a wrecked standstill, bottom upward. Jed and the old man were beneath. It was six weeks before Johnson got the crick out of his back and recovered the use of his battered members. His first duty at the end of those six weeks was to lick Jed, not passionately or in temperate!', but thoroughly, consci entiously, earnestly, according to a carefully matured plan and determina tion. LEFT HIS VOICE BEHIND. It Fell on the Floor, but He Picked It t'p (iood as Kver. The curtain wa down, the house was empty, the last few patrons were struggling out of the California Theatre, and all the lights were out. Chief Usher Williams was coming down the main staircase when a figure darted past him in the gloom, says the San Francisco Examimr. "Where are you going?" he called, anil he grabbed the stranger by the coat tails. The man struggled madly, but never uttered a sound. "Where in thunder are you going to?" again asked Williams. "Don't you know the show is over and we're lock ing up the house?" And he dragged the man down a few steps into the light of the lobby. Meanwhile the intruder gesticulat ed wildly; his eyes rolled like marbles and he hissed at Williams like a snake. Suddenly he bent over to the usher. "1 lost my voice," said he in an al most inaudible whisper; "left it up stairs. Goin' up ter find it!" Williams gaped in amazement, let go his grip on the man and followed Uim uo-sta' Alter a iew moments rummatniif among the seats the stranger stooped down and picked up something. "Found your voice yet?" called Wil liamft. "Yes, I'm all right now." The chief usher nearly dropped. The voiceless stranger spoke with all the metallic resonance of a bassoon. "What the dickens is your" voice made of. anyhow?" he asked, as he piloted the stranger down-stairs. "Silver," replied he in the same stentorian tone. "See; here it is. I must have jerked it out with laugh ing, and I never missed it till 1 "0L outside." He pointed at an orifice at the side of his tnroal. The metal lips of a canula were gleaming there. Without the metal tube he. was silent as the mummy of Kauu ses 11. of iigypt. lii!rt't Walt to !$.- l;setiarsed. "There va-- a in'-take in that last order that Sellers sent in from the road." said the proprietor, scowling at one of t he clerks. "Was there?" asked the clerk eare-les-!y. l us. sir. there was, and it wasn't Corrected." "No?" said the clerk pleasantly. "No. You shipped the goods accor ding to that blamed fool order." "Why, of course. I supposed that Sellers " "You've no right to suppose any thing of the sort!" exclaimed the pro prietor. "He makes more mistakes than anv man on the road." "He does?" asked the clerk. "Certainly he does. lie's one of the most careless men I ever knew." "And I'm supposed to correct them?" inquired the clerk. "Of eotue you are." "Tin supposed to be absolutely accu rate?" The clerk was getting excited. "Ceriainlv." "And know all about his business?" "You sinnild delect his errors." "Well. why don't you pay me for it?" "v hat?" The clerk dropped his pen in his ex citcinc at. "Look here'." he said. "You hold me responsible for his errors, and vow pay him more for making them than you do me for correcting them, (rood day!' He left without waiting to be ais c h a r ge d . (Jlticayo Tribune.

"The first time I ever saw Samue Sullivan Cox, known as Sunset Cox was in 1850," said Thomas Kuick to St. Louis Chronicle reporter. "I was then superintendent of bridges on the national turnpike in Ohio and Cox was making a tour of taverns on the road delivering political sueechs. "The turnpike in those days was the great highway between the hast and the West. It was thronged night and day with teams from every part of Ohio, and country taverns, with big wagon yards, wern located ten miles apart. "Every night these taverns were crowded with teamsters and travelers and Cox spoke at every one of them, beginning at the Indiana line and end ing at the Pennsylvania border. "Mr. Cox was a young slip of a fellow with realdudish ways, but his speech es were so inexpressibly funny that he captured the hearts of the rough team sters, who carried his fame to every part of the state, and as long as he lived they were always his solid friends. "Kx-Oovernor Allen once mane a tour of those taverns and made friends that stood by him for vears. and I have no doubt but that that inlkience still existed and aided in electing him gov ernor thirty years later." A Dog That Tells the Hours. Col. F. N. Barksdale of the Passenger Department of the Pennsylvania rail road has a dog that can tell the time of tne day. Col. Barksdale has a very line cloc k that strikes only on the hour and then very slowly. The Col. got in to the way' of making the dog tap with his foot at each stroke of the clock. He got so he would do so without being told. Just before the clock strikes it gives a little cluck, and whenever the dog heard this he would prick up his ears, raise his paw and gently tap his paw at each strike without being told. After awhile he got so that wnen anyone clucked like the clock he would get in to position and wait for the strokes. He was for a long time confused at not hearing the clock, but after av. ' H : began tapping his paw anyway. The remarkable point is that after a while he remembered how many strokes were due at each succeeding hour, so that now when the Colonel clucks he gets into position and taps the num ber of strokes the clock should make next time. Thus, at any time after 10 o'elock h taps eleven times; after 4 o'clock, five times, etc. Some learned scientists are fxoinr to investigate the matter to see whether the dog actually possesses reasoning faculties. Col. Barksdale will not part with the dog under any conditions. BMfonic (Pa.) Vc7j(. Too Old to Be Interested. Not long ago, in a public school ex amination, an eccentric examiner de manded: "What views would King Alfred take of universal suffrage, the conscription and printed books if he were living now?"
