DOfl'T LIEU OHUROfl Git OB.

Denizens of New Market Who Can't E What Church Ladies Prepare. There is bad blood in New Market. Wilis is not unusual, but from a Bcieut.fic stand point it is interesting. There is an origin to everything and the origin of tho lat66t New Market eruption is a rab bit hunt. Some two weeks ago the Bturdy free holders of tho town of Jacob Freed, chose up, and under tho lead of two such doughty captains as John Warbritton and M. F. Proctor, thoy sal out with their shot guns and salt cellars to make a day of it among the cottfui-taii*. Mr. Warbritton's faction ""•was strictly in it that day and tho way they slow rabbits and kuocked tho spots off the Proctor gang was a caution to unbelievers. hen the shades of night catno on Warbritton and his followers had 16(3 rabbits and the other side hail just exactly as many empty pop bottles.

The contest, however, was for rabbits and not pop bottles, so it was decided that Mr. Proctor and his crowd would I^JLhave to pay for the supper. Mr. Warbritton was appointed to secure a caterer for tho occasion and arrange the preliminaries. Lon Havereauip and Kd.

Wray, who were on the losing side,came \around to givo advice as to the preparailca of the feast. "We want it good and oily," said thoy, "bile the rabbits up with noodles and sow belly and have plenty ofV.ider and pop to wash it down.'"

Then thoy went away licking their chops and poking their fingers in each other's ribs in anticipation of the approaching feast, laughing all tho time sweet girlish laughs that raug pleasantly out on the frosty air. Dave Penn and the Johnson brothers put themselves on a diet of grubum gems and split peas so that their appetite might bo simply ravenous on the night of the barbecue. One of the other losers even called on Jake Freed and gave him instructions as to tho exact way in which he would have his sauce poured on his meat. Hollow cheeked men could be seen on every corner all anxiously waiting the gorgeous feast. Anxious mothers kept their Vpluuip little children closeted in doors for fear that some fasting rabbit huntor might give way to temptation and make a meal off their pet6. The grocers were in despair and the butcher closed his shop and moved to Brown's Valley. The whole place was on tip toe with antici pation until the other day when Mr.

Warbritton announced that ho had awarded to the ladies of the Methodist ohurch tho contract for furnishing the banquet. Thou, indeed, did Proctor, itPenn, Havercamp, Kay, the Johnson [fttbrothers and all the rest of them go out IE? into the streets and howl. An indigna •^tion meeting was called at once and many firev speeches were made. Ono

'Igr&y

haired.grandsire arose and said: "I hev lived nigh unto to eighty years now but I've novor ot no Method is' grub nor out of the flesh pots of Egypt either. I'm dead set agin them folks and don't -want them glorifyin' around while I eat. No siree, Jake Freed is good enough fur me and I don't calculate to eat prayer meelin' hash in my old age. I move you, Mr. Captain, that we give this Saturdoy love feast the cold shake and have a regular non sectarian stag tool next Chewsday evenin'." 'The motion was carried with a whoop and the Proctor faction applauded until tho rest of the town thought there waB another Tow in Clark township at Emma Conner's school house. Mr. Warbritton was waited upon and informed that the sentiment of the meeting was decidedly against mixing rabbit hunts and religion. Mr. Warbritton told them that they could come or slay away as they pleased, but if they came they would be obliged to give bond for surety of the peace. The opposing faction" decided to stay away entirely, therefore, and two or throe became so disgusted that they begun to eat their meals as formerly. Tho church ladies will serve their banquet at the appointed hour Saturday evening and on next Tuesday evening will occur the grand "stag tool" aforementioned. The Methodist ladies are preparing to give the swellest feast that New Market has seen since the war, and it has been given out by those of tho ladies charitably inclined that Lou Havercamp and some of the rest can get a ''hand out" if they come around during tho festivities.

OHAELEY 'WARREN'S BED T10X.

The Oonflagration Thereof Causes Great Consternation In the South End. V: ..This morning uncle Charley Warren, who lives out near the Plum street sUi-. lion, emptied a couple of straw bed licks preparatory to refili ng thou with some of the more modern article.- The cows wouldn't eat the old straw, of course, and as tho robins which might have made it up into nests were all gono South for the winter, ho decided to burn it up. Accordingly tho fatal, devastating torch was applied. A danso black volume of smoke at once rolled up to* heaven, and above the roaring flames could bo heard tho agonized shrieks of tho perishing victims. Just how tho firo alarm was given no ono knows.

Some say that a terrified neighbor ran to Brock's grocery and turned it in, believing that Mr. Warren's house was burning down liko London bridge. Others maintain just iis stoutly that one one of the inhabitants of tho straw tick escaped from the seething flames and did it in tho fond hope of saving his burning brethren. At any rate tho alarm was sent in and the department soon arrived on tho scene, when a couple of small boys were stirring about in tho smouldering straw ashes with a stick looking for pins. The mercury stood at zero and tho members of tho department went back shivering with the cold, and joking with each other abont a lot of pleasant little things. Life is full of such happy incidents and they always make us fee! comfortable and congenial.
