THOUGHT THE QUN BEWITCHED.
Old Ncuro Threw It Away mid Would
Not Touch It Auuln.
A story Is told of Undo Washington
Harris, one of "Murse Clay's niggers
aforo do war," who remained on tho
plantation after ho was free. He was
considered u power among the negroes,
being somewhat of a local preacher,
but lie said, "I'se Jlst a exortlouct
'uiongst tie congregation."
Once w'hen Uncle "Wash" was "ex-
ortlonlng 'inongst do congregation,''
tho Ku Klux came after him, and as
tho old man hurriedly beat tin exit
through a window one of the Kit Klux
Hot the tall of his Prince Albert coat
that "Murse Clay" had given him and
which tho old darky was very proud
of. From that time Uncle "Wash" nl
ways carried an old long-barreled shot
gun. Tho neighbors wore In the habit of
meeting at night at "Hob" Clay's coun
try store to tell yarns and talk about
tho crops. . Uncle "Wnsh" and several
other old colored men wore always
present, sitting on noil kegs n respect
ful distance behind "do white folks to
hear do yarns." On those- occasions
Undo Wash" always left his gun In
the roar of tho store.
One night "Illicit" Allen, who novel
was tired of playing Jokes oh the old
man, got his gun and, after drawing
the shot from It, loaded It "with pow
der and phosphorus wood as wadding,
then another load of powder and mora
phosphorus wood, repeating this till
tlinrn leurn snvornl hinds of imwilor I
mid wood In the gun, ramming down
the last charge of powder with an ex
tra long piece of wood.
"Itnek"
dropped a coal on It nnd went back to
his sent.
If phosphorous wood Is lighted tho
lire will eat very slowly through It and
act ns a fuse. Undo "Wash" took up
his gun nnd started home, and was
several hundred yards from tho storo
when the Hpnrk reached tho llrst
charge of powder and exploded It,
which greatly perplexed the old man,
but ho attributed It to an accident.
When tho second explosion occurred
ho fell on his knees and prayed, but
when tho third came he threw the gun
from him Into the bushes nnd ran for
dear life. As Undo "Wnsh" burst In
tho front door, to the consternation of
his wife, and fell sprawling on tho
lloor, hysterically praying, ho heard
tho last charge explode.
Undo "Wash" never went lmck for
his gun, and could never be convinced
"sperrets" were not In that "ole ttirkco
gun," and that It was not bewitched.

Hurled Aiiiorluun HlHtory.
Even In a country so recently consc
ious of tho past as our own, there are
burled cities awaiting tho plcknx of tho
historian. Of these none Is perhaps
more Interesting, certainly none Is
more picturesque, more colonial nnd
i'vvn to-dny more English than old
Williamsburg In Virginia that "mid
dle plantation," which In Hi:)'.' was
"laid out and paled," to become a char
tered city, the capital of a great colony
under king nnd crown,
Its three streets of the reign of Wil
liam and Mary are Its only thorough
fares and two "back" streets, hardly
more than grassgrown lanes of to-day.
Duke of (iloucester street, broad ami
genially hospitable, stretches leisurely
from the foundations of tho ancient
capital building on the oast (of whoso
wall not one brick Is left nor 0110 whlto
pillar of Its porticoes), to the Iron turn
stile gates of William nnd .Mary college
grounds at tho western extremity of
the town.
On tho right, ns one enters tho collego
gate, Is a charming mansion, tho resi
lience of the president of William and
Mary, and upon the left, across tho
campus, f stands the old llraffortou
building, the earliest school for the edu
cation of Indians erected on American
soil, In tho time of Gov. Spotswood,
says Country Life In America, It was
necessary to resort to strenifous efforts
to Insure nttcndniu'c, for the students
were mainly hostages, the sons of
chiefs of neutral or friendly tribes dur
ing Indian warfare. ,

SOCIAL INSTINCTS OF ANTS.
Hhow Hi roil 1; Pcno of Devotion toCom
111011 Went Truu to Duty.
In order not to leave my readers un
der the Impression of crime niuoug
ants, 1 shall give an account of a trait
of devotion to the common weal, writes
August Forel In the International
Monthly. A swarm of Formica prnten
P Is was closely pressed lu Its nest by an
army of the same species, ami crowds
of alarmed defenders issued from the
entrances to the nest and' Hew to take
part lu the light. I.Ike Satan, the
tempUr of old, I placed near them a
beautiful drop of honey 011 u piece of
paper.
, any ot,her tluto tho honey would
hnve Iveeil covered In a few Instants
with nuts gorging tht'iiiselves, but this
time numerous working ants came
upon lt. tasted It for scarcely a second,
and returned to It restlessly three or
four times. Conscientiousness, the feel
lug of duty, Invurlably'provalK'd over
gormntidlsm, and they left the honey
to go nnd be killed while defending the
community. I am bound to own, how
ever, that there are ants loss codal. lu
which gormandlsui does prevail.
Coiuuprcd to the manners of other
sociable animals, and especially to
those of man, the manners of ants ex
hibit a profound and fundamental ng
gtvgatlon of facts of convergence, due
to their social life. Let me mention
devotion, the lustltncttve sentiment of
duty, slavery, torture war, alliances,
the raising of cattle, gardening, har
vesting, and even' social degeneres
cence through the attraction of certain
harmful menus of enjoyment. It would
be ridiculous nnd erroneous to see In
the fultllineut of this series of nets, In
dividual reasoning, the result of calcu
lated reflection, analogous to ours. Tin
fact that each Is fixed and elreuiui
scribed within one species, as well us
the fatalistic character It has In that
epocles, prove this superabundantly.

Their Tiny Cublna.
People who object to living In snug
quarters and think that love In a cot
tage Is altogether too contracted for
continual affection, should go and take
a ook at the cabins In the cnnalbont
village In New York harbor. Those who
aro preparing to live In trunks nnd
grips during the summer could get tin.
lessons there of snug existence.
The whole cabin Is not much lnrger
than an ordinary bedroom, but how
every morsel of spaco is utilized! If
there Is a square Inch of interior that
gets awny without doing Its duty In the
great work of containing things It must
have a politician's talent for evasion.
