A FAMOUS
LAWSUIT
Br M QUAD

erarv Pr*?*
The town of Bidwell. up In the New !
Rnplsnd bills, was a town of peso*.
It had been founded Just forty years
when lt? flrst real sensation came
Oo* day Deacon Goodhue borrowed
Deacon Hardman'a parden boe, and
after uslnp It a few minutes he broke
It off at the sbank While he eon
tended that It was old and rusty ami
ready to break, he offered to bay a
new one to replace It. Much to hi"
surprise. he was allowed to do so, and
he went home to say to his wife:
"Martha. I've known Deacon Hard
man for thirty years ami hare Just
found him ont He's a Unman hog,
and if he ever poes to boaven I want
j to pv> somewhere else."
For two weeks after that the two
deacons nodded coldly to each other
whenever they met, and It pradually
became known to Bldwell that their
relations were strained Then one
mornlnp Deacon Goodhue set ont to
drive Ave hops over to the welplilnc
scale*. He had to pass the other
deaec-n's house, and a* he came alons
the pate was open, and all the hops
made a rush for It. He was trylnp lo
drive them ont of Deacon Hardman'a
yard when the latter came out and
said:
"By pnm. Deacon Goodhne. but this
Is poln* too fur-too furl Ton opened
that pate and driv yonr hops in on
me a-pnrposeP
"1 never did. and yon know I ?
didn't!" retorted Deacon Goodhue a,s
be pause<l In his runnlnp.
"Yes. yon dldP
"No. I didn't!"
"Do yon call me a liar*"
"Yes. If yon call me one,"
"Take It hack or I'll mop the pronnd
with con!"
"Come ont ber* and I'll make yon
see stars'"
Then and there the deacons clinched
and rolled on the pronnd topetber. an, I
they wore choklnc each other and
breathlnp hard when Moses Schemer
horn came alone and separated them '
Deacon Hardman went stralcht to Jus
tlce Soroorfleld and swore out a war
rant for assault and battery.
Both men bad their friends, and the
public was divided. The only person
who had witnessed the fracas was
Deacon Hardman'a wife, but there
were other witnesses sworn
Old Mrs Taylor swore that she had
always suspected IVacon Goodhue to
be a man of violent temper and that
he only needed to be kicked to become
a murderer. Moses Hunt was a mile
away that morning looklnp for hla
cow, but be swore that Deacon Hard
man was the sort of man to lose his
temper and do awful thlnps If he
found a stranpe hop rootlnp op bis
hollyhocks. Ahner Orossman. who
bad known both parties for thirteen
year*, swore that he had known Den
con Goodhue to fall off a haystack,
pet mired In a swamp and fipht bum
blebees for half an honr without losinc
the smile on his face, and he could
j?ot believe that he had bepun this
fuss Opposed to him was Tnieherrt
Jobnson. who said he had seen Deacon
Hardman kicked head over heels by a
cow. run over by a hop and knocked I
down by a ram and that he preserved :
a humble spirit thronpbout and even
asked the cow to forplve him if he
had hart ber feellnps.
Mrs. Etardman's testimony was that
she was washing the dishes after
breakfast when she heard her husband
give a griint and rash from the house
She fol towed him to the door and
beard and saw all that subsequently
passed, though tn such a nervous state
that she could not be sure of any
thing. She felt almost sure that
Deacon Goodhue said "by gum" and
"devil" and "old crank," but she
wouldn't be positive of It She was
almost as sure that ber husband
started to sin* a hymn and made some
Scriptural quotation, but abe might
have been mistaken. She wa? not sure
who grabbed the other first, but she
could swear on the living Bible that
they had trodden all the cucumbers
Into the earth and broken down most
of her tiger lilies.
It took two day* to try the case and
meanwhile all business was suspend
ed. Including the sawmill. There was
no Jury, and when almost everybody
in town had sworn on one aide or the
ether Justice Somerfleld put on hts
most dignified look and said:
"This case seems to go back to the
hoe and to Deacon Goodhue's garden.
Was there any need of the deacon
1 working in his garden that day ?
What had become of his own hoe?
Was the borrowed hoe rusty in the
abank or was U not?
Then there were the hog*. Any
man who had ever set out to drive
one hog along the road, to say noth
ing about five, knew that the animal
wouldn't go straight for a rod at a
tinre. He wouldn't be a bog to pass
an open pate without making a rush 1
for the opening. As to whether the
Ue was actually given and who gave
It first Is a matter of doubt. The
same is true as to who grabbed first,
i bnt there can ha no possible douK
, that many cucumbers and tiger lilies
, were destroyed and that Deacon Hard
: man emerged from the conflict with a
skinned nose. Taken full and by and
, back and forth. it was about an even
thing The costs will be divided be
tween them, business resumed at 7
o'clock tomorrow morning, and If
either has any root beer In the cellar
be will be erpected to treat the other
j and both make up and let hoes and
j hflgs go to grasa terevwr moreP

advantage of the oportunltr offered |

Strength ?f a C*ar.
A story Is lold In St retersl.nrf
trhkb Illustrates the phenomenal phys
leal strength of the old mar. At a
little station not fur from the capital
the Imperial train was delayed for
quite a time. aDd the erar, being
hungry, pnrtook of some of the simple
food of the bnffet. Meanwhile the lit
tle daughter of the mayor presented
the empress with a bouquet, the flow
ers of whWh were hastily gathered
from private hotbonscs In the neighbor
hood. The stalks toeing still damp and
earthly, the empress visibly hesitated
to take the liotHinet In her neatly gloved
hand. The cssar coolly took up one of
the heavy pewter plates on the fable,
and twisting It an If It were paper,
made a neat covering for the stalks
There Is nothing Incredible In the story,
since the ciar had teen known to bend
a kltcher poker as an ordinary man
would a strip of tin.

What did people eat before they had

Apparently they h:id most of the vege

ers in the time of the Tudors. Sir Wal
ter Hesant tells us that they ate let
tuce as a separate dish before the
meat, used turnip leaves as a salad
and roasted the turnip Itself In wood
ashes. Horseradish and carrots were
known to them, and capers were serv
ed boiled in oil or vinegar, encum
bers. radishes, parsnips and cabbages
also figured at the Tndor meal table,
for which, hy the way, tbey boiled
their oysters and spread their beef
with honey. It wonld he fun In these
