A good joke is told at the expense of Henry A. Woolery, receiver of the Bloomington Water Works. Arid the fun of the joke is it truthfulness. Henry is a good

j si iot, and takes great delight in

shooting frogs. The latter part of the weeek he went to the water works pond, and after transacting the business that called him there, he took his trusted riile and went in search of frogs. The engineer had previously purchased two large iron frogs that had ben painted green, and otherwise made toleok like the genuine article.The two deeoy frogs were placed at the water's edge, and when Henry saw one of them his eyes danced with delight, for the size of his frogship was enough to make a hunters heart jump into his throat. lp went Henry's ri!le to his shoulder, "bang" went the gun, but the frog never moved. Surprised, but not discouraged, Henry tired again but the result was tliR same. Four shots were iired, when Henry called to the engineer to come to his assistance. He lired another shot and this time it was plain that it took effect on the northeast corner of his frogs hip's jaw. This was too much for the engineer and he told Henry the joke. If you want the cigars just mention frog-hunting to Receiver Woolerv.
