The negro was asked what he had been arrested for, and lie explained that he had driven home and killed the wrong hog. . i It was a mistake which any col ored man was liable to make in a country where hogs looked so much alike, and he asserted that his conscience was resting perfectly quiet under the legal accusation. lie was homesick, however, and sighed for tho bo som of his family. Then why don't you go homer asked the colonel. Can't git away from dis vare truck," was the reply. "Can't you carry the truck on vour shoulder?''

The major ity of the names, however, have been unusual ones, such as G ro ver, Chester, Uutherford, Ulys ses, Abraham, Franklin, Mii lard, Zachary and Martin, which is one-half of the entire num ber. There is a strange coincidence connected with these names of presidents, and that is that tho full name of both the h'rst and. present president require the same number of tetters, which are sixteen, and both end with "on" George Washington acd Benjamin Harrison. Accord ing to this we should look on sixteen as a lucky number. An Iowa clergyman recoctly married 2 couples and conducted 2 funerals in one day, and to do it drove 50 miles. Total receipts $5.
