He was a representative citizen. He had killed his man—that in his own quarrel, it is true, but in the defence of a stranger betrayed by numbers. He had kept a sumptuous saloon. He had been the proprietor of a dashing helpline whom he could have discarded without the formality of a divorce. He had held a high position in the fire department, and been a very Warwick in politics. When he died there was a great lamentation throughout the town, but especially on the vast bottom stratum of society. On the inquest it was shown that Buck Fanshaw, in the delirium of a wasting typhoid fever, had taken arsenic, shot him self through the body, cut his throat, and jumped out of a four-story window and broken his neck; and after due deliberation the jury, sail and tearful, but with intelligence unblinded by its sorrow brought in a verdict of death "by the visitation of God." What could the world do without juris? Prodigious preparations were made for the funeral." All the vehicles in town were hired, and all the saloons were put in mourning, all the municipal and fire company flags were hung at half-mast, and all the firemen ordered to muster in uniform, and bring their machines duly draped in black. Regretful resolutions were passed and various committees were appointed; among others a committee of one was appointed to call on a minister—a fragile, gentle, spiritual new fledgling from an Eastern theological seminary; and as yet unacquainted with the ways of the mines. The committee man was put up. Yes—death has. Well, well, we have got to give him up. Yes indeed, it's a kind of hard world after all, isn't it? But pard, he was a ruler. You ought to see him get started once. He was a bully boy with glass eye. Just split in his face and give him room according to his strength, and it was beautiful to see him peel and go in. He was the worst son of a theft that ever drawn breath. Pard, he was on it. He was on it bigger than an Injun." "On it! On what?" "On the shoot. On the shoulder. On the fight." Understand? He didn't give a continental for anybody. Beg your pardon friend, for coming so near saying a cussword—but you see I am on an awful strain in this palavar-on account of having to cram down and draw everything so mild. But we've got to give him up. There aint no getting around that, I don't reckon. Now if we can get you to help plant him." "Peach the funeral discourse!" Assist at the obsequies? "Observation is good. Yes. That's it: that's our little game. We are going to get up the thing regardless he was always nifty himself and you bet. His funeralaint going to be no sloucher; solid silver door platt on his coffin. Six plumes on the hearse, and a nigger on the box, with a biled shirt and a plug hat—how's that for high? And we'll take care of you, pard. Well fix you all right. There will be a kerrdge for you; and whatever you want you just scape out and we'll tend to it. We've got a shebang fixed up for you to stand behind in Na'i's house, and don't you be afraid? Just go in and toot your horn if you don't sell a clam. Put Buck." Not people of any republic. Well some that average. In my opinion, a man thieves personal violence to his ought to— Cheese it pard; you've your ball clean outside the What I was a driving at he never thrown off on him don't you see? No, indeed her house to live in, and t and plenty of money; and he alter her and took care of his time; and when she was do the small-pox, Pm damned not set up nights and nurse self. Beg your pardon for it, but it hopped out to q yours truly. You've treated a gentleman, and Iaint th hurt your feelings intend think you're a square man, like you, and I'll lick any'm don't I'll lick him till he chiself from a last year's corn it there." [Another fratern shake—and exit.] What could the world do without jurors? Prodigious preparations were made for the funeral. All the vehicles in town were hired, and all the saloons were put in mourning, all the municipal and fire company flags were hung at half-mast, and all the firemen ordered to muster in uniform, and bring their machines duly draped in black. Regretful resolutions were passed and various committees were appointed; among others a committee of one was appointed to call on a minister—a fragile, gentle, spiritual new fledgling from an Eastern theological seminary; and as yet unacquainted with the ways of the mines. The committee-man, "Scotty" Briggs, made his visit. Being admitted to his presence, he sat down before the clergyman, placed his fire hat on an unfinished manuscript sermon under the minister's nose, took from it a red skik handkerchief, wiped his brow and heaving a gash of small impressiveness expanatory of his business. He choked and even shed tears, but with an effort he mastered his voice, and said, in lugubrous tones: "Are you the duck that that runs the gospel mill next door?" "Am I the—pardon me, I believe I do not understand!" With another sigh and a half sob Scotty rejoined: Why, you see, we are in a bit of trouble and the boys thought maybe you'd give us a lift if we'd tackle you, that is. If I've got the rights of it and you are the head clerk of the doxology works next door." "I am the shepherd in charge of the flock whose fold is next door." "The which?" "The spiritual adviser of the little company of believers whose sanctuary adjoins these premises." Scotty scratched his head, reflected a moment and then said: "You rather hold over me pard. I reckon I can't call that hand. Ante and pass the buck." How? I beg your pardon. What did I understand you to say! Will you've rather got the bulge on me. Or maybe we've both got the bulge somehow. You don't smoke me and I don't smoke you. You see one of the boys has passed in his checks, and we want to give him a good sand off, and so the thing I'm on now is to rout out somebody to jack out a little chin music, and waltz him through handsome for us." My end, I seem to grow more and more bewildered. Your observations are wholly incomprehensible to me. Cannot you simplify them some way? At first I thought perhaps I understood you, but now I grope. Would it not expedite matters if you restricted your elf to categorical statement of facts unnumbered with obstrucing accumulations of metaphor and allegory? Another pause and more reflection, and then Scotty said: "I'll have to pass. I judge." How? You've raised me out, pard." I still fail to catch your meaning." Why, it at last lead of your name is to many for me—that's the idea. I can neither trump or follow suit." The clergyman sank back in his chair perplexed Scotty leaned his head on his hand, and gave him if up to reflection. Presently his face came up, sorrowful but confident. I've got it now so you can savvy," said Observation is good. Yes. That's it: that's our little game. We are going to get up the thing regardless; he was always nifty himself and you bet, his funeralaint going to be no slouch; solid silver door platt on his coffin; six plumes on the hearse; and a nigger on the box, with a billed shirt and a plug hat—how's that for high? And we'll take care of you, pard. We'll fix you all right. There will be a kerr dge for you; and whatever you want you just scape out and we'll tend to it. We've got a shebang fixed up for you to stand behind in No It's house, and don't you be afraid. Just go in and toot your horn if you don't sell a clam. Put Buck through as bully as you can; pard, for anybody that knew him will tell you that he was one of the whistest men that was ever in the mines. You can't draw it too strong. He never could stand it to see things going wrong. He's done more to make this town peaceable than any man in it. I've seen him lick four Greasers in eleven minutes, myself. If a thing wonted regulating, he warn't the man to go browsing around after somebody to do it, but he would prance in and regulate it himself. He warnn't a Catholics; but it didn't make no difference about that when it came down to what a man's right was—and so, when some roughs jumped the Catholic honeyard and starred in to stake out town lots in it. he went for em. And he cleaned'em too. I was there and seen it myslf." That was very well, indeed—at least the impulse was—whether the act was strictly defensible or not. Had deceased any religious convictions? That is to say, did he feel a dependence upon or acknowledge allegiance to a higher power? More reflection. "I reckon you've stumped me again, pard. Could you say it over once more, and say it slow?" Well, to simplify it somewhat, was he, or rather, had he been connected with any organization sequestered from secular concerns and devoted to self sacrifice in the interest of morality?" "All down but nine—set 'em up on the other alley, pard." “What did I understand you to say?” “Why, you're most too many for me, you know. When you get in with your left, I hunt grass every time. Every time you draw you fill; but I don't seem to have any luok. Let's have a new deal.” “How? Begin again?” “That's it.” “Very well. Was he a good man, and—” “There—I see that; don't put up another chip till I look at my hand. A good man says you? Pard itaint no name for it. He was the best man that ever—pard you would have dotted on that man. He could jam any galoot of his inches in America. It was him that put down the riot last election before it got a start; and everybody said that he Obsequies were all "boys" could desire. Such of funeral pomp had never seen in Virginia. The plume of dirge-breathing brass be closed marts of business, drooping at half-mast, the plodding procession of secret societies, military brace carriages of officials, and civic vehicles and on foot, attractitudes of spectators to town windows; and, for yearward, the degree of gratitude by any civic display ginia, was determined by son with Buck Fanshaw's father. Sketch of the City of A The city of Antioch-or, now called Antakieh-now for the fourth or fifth time, ed by an earthquake, was cient times one of the most in Syria, and at one per even more wealthily and great rivals, Alephe and D. It is situated on the river Ancient Orontes), about 1 miles from its mouth and 3 miles west of Aleppo. It was ed about 300 B.C. by Selector, and named by him of his father, Antiochus other cities; none of which however, so successfully survived attacks of time, enjoying the same period a like di Situated directly in the trac caravans from Mesopotamia, in a beautiful valley atti of the mountains, which rise point from a narrow fringely lying shore, with abundant terra and a singularly fertile city soon became wonderful perona, and the wares of Ba Moshi, of Cashmere and halted in its caravansaries way to the bazaars of B. and the markets of Rox cause of its wealth and was no doubt the energy at try of the colony of Greek enian ancestry, by whom peopled, and who had been from the neighboring city gonium by Selencus. It was for several genera favorite residence of the Princes and became the Another pause and more reflection, and then Scotty said: "I'll have to pass. I judge." How? "You've raised me out, pard." "I still fail to catch your meaning." Why, that last lead of your name is to many for me—that's the idea. I can neither trump or follow suit. The clergyman sank back in his chair perplexed Scott leaned his head on his hand, and gave him it up to reflection. Presently his face came up, sorrowful but confident. I've got it now so you can savvy," said he. "What we want is a gospel sharp. See?" A what? "Gospel-sharp, parson." Oh! why did you not say so before? I am a clergyman—a parson. Now you talk, you see my blind and straddle it like a man. Put it there!"—extending a brawny paw, which closed over the minister's small hand and gave it a shake indicative of fraternal sympathy and fervent gratification. Now we are all right, pard. Let's start fresh. Don't you mind me shuffling a little, becuz we are in a power of trouble. You see one of the boys has gone up the flume—— Gone where? "Up the flume—throw'd up the sponge you know." Thrown up the sponge? "Yes—kicked he bucket." Ah—has departed to that mysterious country from whose bourne no traveler returns." Rathrn? Well I reckon not. Why pard. he's dead." Yes, I understand. Oh! you do? Well, I thought you might be getting tangled once more! Yes you see he is dead again—" Aga'n? Why has he ever been dead before? Dead before? No. Do you reckon a man has got as many lives as a cat? But you bet he's awful dead now, poor old boy, and I wish I had never seen this day. I don't know nb better frend than Buck Fanshaw. I kno'd him by the back; and when I know a man like him I freeze to him—you hear me. Take him all around, pard, there never was a buller man in the maze. No man ever knew Buck Fanshaw to go back on a friend. But it's all up, you know; it's all up. It aint no use. They've scooped him! Scooped him? "How? Begin again?" "That's it." Very well. Was he a good man, and—" There—I see that; don't put up another chip till I look at my hand. A good man says you? Pard itaint no name for it. He was the best man that ever—pard you would have dotted on that man. He could jam any galot of his inches in America. It was him that put down the riot last election before it got a start; and everybody said that he was the only man that could have done it. He waltzed in with a trumpet in one hand and a spanner in the other, sent fourteen men home on a shutter in less than three minutes. He had that riot all broke up and prevented nice before anybody got a chance to strike a blow. He was always for peace and he would have peace—he could not stand disturbances. Pard, he was a great loss to the town. It would please the boys if you could chip in something like that, and do him justice. Here once, like when the Micks got to throwing stones through the Methodis Sunday-school windows, Buck Fanshaw, all of his own notion, shut up his saloon and took a couple of six-shooters and mounted guard over the Sunday-sohool. Says he, "No Irish need apply." And they didn't. He was the bulliest man in the mountains, pard: he could run faster, jump higher, hit harder, and bold more tangle-foot whiskey without spilling than any man in seventeen counties Put that in, pard; it'll please the boys more than anything you can say, pard, that he never shook his mother." Never shook his mother? "That it's—any of the boys will tell you so." Well, but why should he shake her? That what I say, but some people does." people of any repute." all some that averages so so." any opinion, a man that would personal violence to his mother to—" it pard; you've banked all clean outside the string. I was a driving at was that her throwed off on his mother; you see. No, indeed; he gave house to live in, and town lots, enty of money; and he looked for and took care of her all the and when she was down with small-pox. Pm damned if he did up nights and nuss her him. Beg your pardon for saying it hopped out to quick-for truly. You've treated me like woman, and Iaint the man to your feelings intentional. I you're a square man, pard. I am, and I'll lick any man that I'll lick him till he can't tell from a last year's corpse. Put it." [Another fraternal hand-and exit.] obesequies were all that the could desire. Such a marvelural pomp had never been Virginia. The plumed hearse, large-breathing brass bands, the smarts of business, the flags at half-mast, the long progression of uniformedants gradually became exclusively Christian, and in the second, third and fourth centuries it was the principal seat of the true faith in the East, ten councils being held within its walls between the years 253 and 380. When the Latin power waned it suffered greatly from the attacks of Perilla, and about the same period endured three great famines, one of which, in 891, was so severe that wheat rose to the price of 400 pieces of silver a bushel: Between the fourth and seventh centuries the city was three times destroyed by earthquakes. In the sixth century it was made the seat of a patriarchate, which included in its province the Syrian, Mesopotamian and Cilician Churches. It was taken by the Saracens in 630, together with the rest of Syria, and from that time has steadily declined in importance. In 975 it was again annexed to the Western Roman Empire, and having been retaken by the Moslem in 1084, was in 1098 captured by the Crusaders and made the seat of a little Christian kingdom; under Rohémond, the son of Robert Guiscard. It remained in Christian hands for nearly two centuries, and was then taken after terrible losses, by Bibaro, Sultan of Egypt. Since then its histo- you're a square man, pard.

The plumed hearse, large-breathing brass bands, the smarts of business, the flags hanging at half-mast, the long procession of uniformed societies, military battalions, companies, draped engines, ties of officials, and citizens and on foot, attracted multitude of spectators to the roots windows; and, for years after the degree of grandeur attained by any civic display in Vir­was determined by compar­ith Buck Fanshaw's funeral. Ath of the City of Antioch. city of Antioch-or, as it is called, Antakieh-now again, for fourth or fifth time, destroy-an earthquake, was, in anames one of the most famous cities, and at one period was more wealthly and splendid populous than either of its rivals, Aleppo and Damascus. Estimated on the river Aazi (the Orontes), about twenty from its mouth and thirty-four west of Aleppo. It was found at 309 B.C. by Seleneuhs Ni¢and named by him in honor of father, Antiochus, fifteen cities, none of which have ever so successfully survived the days of time, enjoying at about one period a like distinction. Directly in the track of the roads from Mesopotamia and Per­a beautiful valley at the foot mountains, which rise at this from a narrow fringe of low shore, with abundance of wad—a singularly fortile soil, the onion became wonderfully prosperous, and the wares of Bagdad and Cashmere and Senares, in its caravansaries on their bazaars of Byzantium markets of Rome. One of its wealth and greatness no doubt the energy and industria colony of Greeks, of Athancestry, by whom it was led, and who had been removed the neighboring city of Anti­an by Seleneuhs. was for several generations the residence of the Selencidians and became the capital of Seleneuhs. A FABLE — A young man once picked up a sovereign lying in the road. Ever afterwards as he walked along he kept his eyes steadily fixed on the ground, in the hope of finding another. And in the course of a long life he did pick up, at different times, a good amount of gold and silver. But all these days as he was looking for them, he saw not that the heaven was bright above him and nature was beautiful around. He never once allowed his eyes to look up from the mud and filth in which he sought the treasure, and when he died, a rich old man, was for several generations the residence of the Selencid and became the capital of Splendid palaces and baths amphitheatres and temples were by the munificence of its rulers, it was as celebrated all over eastern world for the grandeur architecture as for the wealth luxury and devotion to pleasure inhabitants. No doubt it fairly the compliment of being terAntioch the Beautiful" and Queen of the East."

And in the course of a long life he did pick up, at different times, a good amount of gold and silver. But all these days as he was looking for them, he saw not that the heaven was bright above him and nature was beautiful around. He never once allowed his eyes to look up from the mud and filth in which he sought the treasure, and when he died, a rich old man, he only knew this fair earth of ours as a dirty road in which to pick up money as you walk along. A Greene county farmer recklessly publishes the following challenge: "I will bet $12 25 that my hired man can take longer to go to the harvest field, get back to dinner quicker, eat more, do less, and bear down harder on a panuel of the fence, than any other hired man within fifteen miles of the flag staff in Jefferson." A new telescope, with a twenty-five inch object-glass, has been built at New York, England, but it will be necessary to take it out of the country to give its power fair scope. With every increase of magnifying power, it becomes essential to secure a greater purity of the atmosphere. Don Piart says: "There are said to be three men in Europe who have that great quality, knowledge of the value of silence: Bismarek, Louis Napoleon and the heir of Tichbornes. There are three in America. Brigham Young, Tom Scott and Ulysses S. Grant." A lady writer says if women were as particular in choosing a virtuous husband as men are in selecting a virtuous wife, a moral reformation would soon begin which would be something more than froth and foam.
