[iene ‘ am told a story of an itinerant Georgia preacher, who had one horse and a large family, was 60 confident of Bryzn’s election that he said to one of the members of his congregation : ‘I don’t bet, an’ I ain’t agoin’ ter bet; but if anybody would jest make believe that they wagered a hoss agin that air creetur o’ mine that Bryan won’t be elected, an’ then keep their, counsel erbout it, it would be all ‘right with me, ap’ I'd jest consider—between me an’ him—that my hoss is stakes again his’n.”’ eS _ “Ali right, brother,” said the member, “we'll jest look at it in that light, an’if McKinley is elect- ed I’ll have two horses an’ you none,” * “Tt, was a go,” but the following Sunday the congregation was- amazed to see the preacher tramp ing to town, where he arrived: wayworn aad mud-begpattered, and mounting the platform Struightway began preaching against the evils of betting. “Yes,” he cried, “there are men in this here congregation so lost ter right an’ jestice that they would bet again the one hoss of & peor man, take it from him and make him walk ter glory for the balance of his days! If such a man is ir the hearin’ 0’ my voice today, let him tremble! He can’t’ take that election hoss ter heayen with him. If he could ride it plum in the pearly gates the Angel Gabriel would holler ‘Whoa! a’while the tremblin’ wretch dis- mounted he would hear these words like the knell o’ doom, ‘Wher did you git that hoss? ” After the sermon and the bene. diction some one took the parson by the arm and Jed him out in the grove, and handed him a bridle (and there was a horse connected with it) and said: “Here's yer darned old hoss!

Allan Bolling, colored, met his death as the penalty ofa practical joke at the house of Zdmund Charlottesville, Va. Bolling dress- ed up ip the garb which he thought an accurate description of the devil. smutted his face and called at Scott’s cabin. In response to his knock Scott asked who was at thedoor. Bolling assured him that he was the devil and that he had come for Scott. He demanded entrance, which Scott refused at finally opened the door. As he did so Bolling, seeing the shot gun in his hand, attempted to make his escape. Scott fired, killing him almost instantly, A coroner's jury inyestiyated the causes leading to the tragedy and returned a verdict to the effect that the shooting was justifiable, inasmuch as Bolling went to Scott’s cabin in disguise. Scott was dischorged from cusiody. Baptists, See Here ! fhe Southern Baptist Convention meets this year in Wilmington, N. C., May 8th.
