TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. February 26, ' FIRE AT JIGGERS. BY TOM H. MORGAN. B*ery night, just before retiring, old Jug gar tea ne e tne ladder up against the house and placed a gallon pail of salt on a chair in hi« bedroom. These preparation.« wcie fur the pjirpeM of enabling Jugger to »¿el the bulge upon tne tire rienu at his next visit. kwy'now and then, lor months, the chimney bad a habit of burning out, and a* the roof often rang nt tire these event» were 'the •ecaeion of much excitement. Jugger! had grown tired of reducing him- •eif so the verge of emotional insanity in «•aigaing for «alt to pour down the chimney, trying to quiet hi» wife, who insisted upon indulging in hysterics, and in seeking the ladder that seemed to nave concealed itself juat when it was most needed. by the time he had charged all over the house and lot, collidingwithall the furniture in the former and all the tree«, • nrvba, p oris and clotnesline* in the latter, t he tire had burned out or been extinguished by the neighbors, and hi» wife had cried her self into the first cousin of a fit. Then the ladder would be found, serene and untrou bled, in the place where it al way» reposed, and the salt would grin at him from the bar rel in the pantry. But now Jugger could retire to his couch, happy in the tnougnt that, with the salt at hand and the ladder leaning against the eave«, he was ready for any emergency. For nearly a week peace brooded over the Jugger household. Then the chimney went on tne rampage again. It was near midnight when Mrs. Jugger awoke her spouse by her energetic jab in the riba and tne thrilling announcement that she smelt smoke. The fire could be heard roaring in the chim ney, and Jugger was sure that a conflagra tion would speedily ensue if he did not hasten! to the scene of the danger accom panied by the salt, so he sprung out of bed, took one quick step and fell forward on his face, almost executing a dado on the floor with hi» nose. Till of late, Jugger had never worn a robe- de-nuit, but had passed down the years, »0 to speak, night-shirtless and neglected. Mrs Jugger remedied this awful state of affairs by presenting her husband, upon his last birthday, not long ago, with a brand new night-shirt, five feet and three inches long, forgetting that by all laws of precedent, Jugger’s nead ought to stick out of the top of the garment. Upon rising in the abrupt fashion before mentioned, Jugger, forgetting the superflu ous length of the robe, stepped on the front of it and came down on his face, as stated, with a force that nearly drove his nasal protrnberance back out of sight in his coun tenance Springing to his feet and pulling his nose out to where it belonged, ne grabbed the pail of salt and started toward the door. Tnia time, wnen the long robe tripped Jug ger it sent him headlong against the wall, with a force that almost shortened up his neck. When he finally etcaped from the house it was by holding up tae extraneous length of the garment. Out of doors and around the house he rushed^ cracking his shins with the sharp corners of the salt pail at every other jump. Aa he came in sight of the flames, streaming like a flume of tire out of the chimney top, his excitement caused him to drop the robe for an instant. He recognized nis mistake when he found himself crawling out of the embraces of Mrs. Jugger’s rare and exceed ingly thorny Mexican cacti, which were hignly successful as ornaments, but made a very poor couch. Jugger really ought to have possessed a third nand to assist him while he held onto the tedder and his life and the salt and his night ► hirt. He was not like the dilatory gentleman of chestnut lore, who, in addition to his ngnt and left hands, was provided with a little behind hand. He would have surmounted the steep roof with much more ease and less loss of cuticle if each of his hands and all of the feet he possessed, and the half-dozen more that he needed, had been: armed with long, sharp daws, capable of being socked deep into the shingles. After Mr. Jugger had succeeded in climb ing up the steep roof at about the same rate of apetd as tnat of the an imetical frog that, in climbing out of the well, ascended two feet every day and fell back three feet every night, the neighbors were astounded at the vision that appeared on the ridge pole^ They saw, by the light of the chim ney'« torch, a figure that looked like a large cat in a long gown crawling along the apex of the roof J«st as Jugger raised the pail in order to pour the salt down the chimney, his toe holds slipped at one side Instead of going down the chimney the ^a.t was poured down the roof, a white and gritty cascade. A mo ment later Jugger followed it. There was a frantic clutching and clawing, and a wild yell that nearly put out the fire, and the human toboggan went sliding down over the salty and splintery surface of the shin gles. The frantic manner in which a drowning man is supposed to clutch at straws would not have been a circumstance to the en thusiastic and unreserved manner in which Jugger endeavored to plant his claws upon or into something that would stay his prog ress. His efforts were useless! Down he went At a rate that made the salt sandpaper off th« splinters t hat would otherwise have pro truded from his person and given him the appearance of a human pincusnion. Had it not been for the presence and kind of fices of the salt, J ugg.' s condition would have been a much more deplorable one, for. while a inan with splinters sticking out all over him like pin featners may be very use ful ns a human »crateher, he certainly can not be considered as ornamental. An Adon is Stuck full of splinters must pull down his sign, and nv man likes to think that his cnancH» <»f winning in a Ixauty competition have gone where prohibitiou prohibits, and henceforth he can aspire to nothing better than being an animated toothpick holder. Just as Jugger went over the edge of the roof the tail of his robe < aught on a sturdy gutter clamp. For a moment he nung like a large, waite bat.

MABIE’S TROUBLES. ” BY MAX AniLlg. “If you only had a little capital to invest,” said the young man, as he look a chair and sat down vlo»e to my desk, “1 might put you in the way ul a good thing." “Mme?” "Oa, no. It’s a petrifaction company ; the Columbia Petrifaction company, of Clarion ciunty. I could »pare you 100 snares.” “VVnat doe» the company do?” “Why, you kViow. it owns a limestone spring uji here in Clarion county. That spring used to belong to a man named Herkimer Jones. One day, wnen his well ran dry, Jones went off and brought a bucket of wa ter from that spring and the family drank it. What was the consequence? Next morn ing when the neighbors called. Herkimer Jones was sitting at the supper table turned to solid stone. He had half of a sausage in his mouth; tnat was turned to stone, too. So was Mrs. Jones, and Ellen P. Jone», and Herkimer Jones. Jr., and the baby. The limestone water did it. The heirs closed the whole lot out to a sculptor named Feiguson, who arranged them in a group and sold them to the British muftuni as models from the antique. That is, excepting the baby. He put plaster paris wings on the baby and passed him off as an original design of a Cupid.” "What about the company?” “Well, you see, the company at once bought up the spring properly and they in tend to go into the petrifying business upon a large icale. For example, s'pose’n you get a contract from congre»» to execute an equestrian statue of Gen. Washington. First you find a horse : you make that horse drink at the spring, and there he is! Perfectly splendid! Tnen you find a man who bears a sort of general resemblance to Washing ton. You arrange a picnic; get that man up there in the woods; offer him a drink; and in 11 minutes you can chip spalls off of him with a stone-chisel. Then you mount your man on your horse, and there you have a group of statuary such as Greece in her palmiest days would have given her bottom dollar to get.” “I see.” “The company, you know, purposes to have the country poorhouse located near to the spring; and as the president of the board of trustees owns 60 shares, we calculate to solidify paupers right along, without inter mission, say 20 er 30 a day. Don’t you see what a magnificent prospect it opens up for high art in America? We can fill any order. Say you want a statue of Gen. Jackson, and the only available pauper is too fat. What do we do? We petrify him, and then we chip him down and touch up his counte- nar c?, maybe, with a chisel. Suppose y-^. want a pair of saints to work into the fro?i door to a church. We select a couple of venerable vagrants, harden them, turn their noses down, to give them dignity of expres sion, and the bricklayers then can build them right into the door jambs .” “Suppose the demand for that kind of statuary be small?" “Then we corné down to a basis of utility at once. S’posin’ there’s a pauper with in flammatory rheumatism in hi» leg? We pet rify him. We sell him to a doctor. That doctor cuts off the leg with a marble saw, and there he has that inflaminatoi) rheu matism right before him turned into gian- ite. S’posin’ one of them has a torpid liver? In two hours the doctors can examine that liver just as if it was a brickbat, with the torpidity slicking out all over it. Mind you, if the supply of paupers holds out. I venture to say that the day is not far distant when you can take petrified livers, .and hearts, and muscles, and brain pans and build a two-story house with them, with all tae modern conveniences, a mighty sight cheap er than you can build it out of common stone. Imagine living in a house made of ossified livers! Be unique, wouldn’t it? It would attract attention. “I don’t care for such things myself, but—” “Gen# Bangs, he tried some curious experi ments with the waler out of that spring. He threw a bucketful on a cat that was jump ing about on his back fence one night; and there she is now, fur up, tail elevated, mouth open, picturesque and natural as life! Next night he soused another one; same effect of course; and now Gen. Bangs has 13 ex quisite statuettes of cats in various atti tudes of grace ranged around on his fence. Ferguson, the sculptor, toM him he couldn’t have had those cats done in Carrara marble ,n Europe under $50.000. But, of course, you have to be careful when you have the Co lumbia water around. Gen. Bangs kept his in a barrel, and the other day his mother- .n law filled a pitcher from it. accidentally, and took a drink. One hour later it took mix men to carry her to the window so they could lower her to the pavement with a derrick. She weighed nearly a ton, and was so hard you couldn’t crack her with a sledge hammer The general was sorry, of course; and after he had her mounted on a revolving pedestal he kept her in his front parlor for a while, palming hçr off on his friends as an imported statue of Minerva. But, finally, as she excited unpleasant c »mments. he had her cut into slabs and put into his cemetery lot as tombstones. He had the gratifying reflection that she is near those who were dear to her Let me tell you that if our company once geu to work, and paupers are plenty, a man who wants a variegated tombstone can get something that will please his taste at rates that will make the marble yard people sick.” “It looks like a good thing, but I believe I don’t care to go into it.” “I’ll tell you what I’ll do. I’m a little pressed for money now, and if you II buy 30 shares, you may take them at half price, ■»nd I’ll petrify any of your relations you say for nothing. How's that ■ “I have no relations that I want in that j condition.” “No aunt, or grandmother, or anything that would work up well into a table top, or a slab for a fixed washstand*” “No.” “And you’re going to throw away this chance of promoting aestnetic culture and of encouragmg tne love for tne beautiful in your own country?" “I’m afraid so.” The voung man shook hie head and sighed, as if he could hardly bear to thing of the de genera* y of the times, and then he said: “i’onld you lend roe a quarter, anyhow* I lent it to him. and he went away with a solemn promise to repay it on the morrow. : But ne must have gone to Europe to sell his •bares, for ae never returned.—N.

Press Mrs. Mabie had noticed during their days of courtsnip that Mabie was always intense ly interested in whatever she might happen to be doing and that he was fertile in the matter of suggestion. One day, for instance, he found Her engaged on some embroidery and at once proceeded to question ner con cerning every detail of her method of stitch ing. '1 hen he proposed an improvement, and, failing to explain it to the lady to her entire satisiaction, gave her a pract oil dem onstration, with the result of ruining her work of art. That was rather trying, but there was worse to come and it kept coming. They kept no servant when they were first married. They had the tiniest box of a flat and there would have been no place to put a girl even if they had needed one and had been able to afford her. Besides, Mrs. Mabie had been given one of those old- fashioned educations that include courses of cooking and scientific scrubbing and mar keting, and they got along vers well in Window deed. But Mabie, while his admiration of his wife's accomplishments knew no bounds, could not help feeling that there were many things in the domain of domestic economy that required the application of a masculine intelligence for their successful execution. “I don’t pretend to know about these Agents the Great Western Saw. things,” he would say, “and 1 know that you do know all about them. If I thought that you considered me officious or med dling—” “Ronald! As if I could think such a thing!” “I know you don’t. That’s exactly what I say.
