Robert Wtan, an old and eccentric

lad but a few day* preceded him. The
request was complied with. The death
of "Uncle Boh” recalls an incident In
his life that Is decidedly out of the
ordinary. During the opening scenes
of the civil war "Uncle Bob" was anx
ious to Join the confederate artny. Hia
wife was opposed to hit doing so and
used every argument and effort within
her power to prevent it. One cold
winter morning, after “Uncle Bob" had
abandoned the idea, as Mrs. Winn sup
post d. of joining the army, ahe asked
"Uncle Bob" to go to the woodyard
and gather some wood with which to
rekindle the fire. "Uncle Bob” start
ed, but instead of "gathering wood"
be walked to Mississippi and joined the
army and for four long years fought
for the cause of the confederacy. At
the close of the war he returned to the
home he bad suddenly deserted. En
tering by way of the woodyard. be
gathered up an armful of wood and
entering the room he found bis faith
ful wife who had continued to remain
at the old home. Walking up to the
fireplace he carelessly threw down hia I
armful of wood and looking into the
face of hts now dumbfounded wife, he
coolly remarked: "Here’s your wood.”
after which he proceeded to make him
self at home, as of yore.—Louisville

BOMBS FOR THE SULTAN.
As Kiplotloa In th« Koysl I'nlsce st
C'oa*l:intluopl«
Conataxtixopi.k, Aug. .0.—The city
is wild with exeit-ment over the ex
plosion of a bomb in the precincts of
the sultan's palace yesterday.
It lias been definitely learned that
one man was killed and several were
woundi-d in the expliwlon in the pal
ace. The explosion occurred a dis
tance from the royal apartments, but
three other bombs were found in the
vicinity of the buildings.
An Armenian was arrested having a
number of bombs in his possession. It
is supposed they were to have been
used on the Ottoman bank.
It is the general theory that there
was an organized attempt to blow up
the principal government buildings of
Constantinople and to assassinate the
sultan.
Mobs of irate citizens were crowding
the streets when it was learned that
simultaneously with the explosion in
the palace an Armenian had been ar
rested at the Ottoman bank, while in
the act of lighting a bomb placed near
one of the great doors. It was with
great difficulty that th* troops secured
him from the maddened crowd. He
was hustled off to the barracks prison
with great haste and securely locked
up. A guard of soldier.-, w as placed
about the prison.
Three arrests have been made as the
result of the explosions. All the pris
oners are Armenians. The author of
the explosion in the offices of the
grand vizier is a native of Kaisisb.

uii inexhaustible fund of novel idea*.
