He arrived in town yesterday afternoon and made the acquaintance of an elegant old gentleman who said that his name was Cowherd. The old gentiman learned where the countryman was from, but after “pumping” the Virginian he came to the conclusion that the latter had no money and “shook” him. He was mistaken in his idea that the countryman had no money, for he had nearly @100 in his pocket. The “gentleman” proved to be a confidence man and good luck followed him. Despite the fact that he “shook” the Vi the latter Se ee ee ae afternoon and was played to the tune of 75. This time they met near the Baltimore and Potomac depot and the Virginian approached Cowherd. They walked together several squares. Cowherd was ac- quainted with all of the Virginian’s neighbors, and, as usual, he was going there on the train with Reynolds. They had not walked many squares before Cowherd met a young man named Turner. Turner requested a loan of $75 from Cowherd, but as he only had a check in his ket he could not make the loan. Reynolds was then appealed to for the loan until they should reach the depot. He did not hesitate to accommodate his newly-made ac- qnaintance and COUNTED OUT THE $75. Then Cowherd said something about giving him a receipt. This assured the unsuspecting countryman of the stranger's good faith, and he did not care to trouble him for a receipt. Reynolds was then told to go down to the depot, where Cowherd’s wife was waiting. He ex- lained that she hadon a black silk dress, but Reynolds thought that he might mistake some one else for her. im cherry hat racks only 3 cts. trie oon stove polish, 3 Ivory toothpicks only 2 cta.

He said he did not want the gentleman's feel- ings hurt, nor did he want him him accused of being dishonest. He left the inspector's office, saying that he would go down to the depot and see him (Cowherd) go through the gate. He has aot yet arrived at the outer door. The Virginian learned a lesson that may serve to protect him in the future. Pecos THE UNION LEAGUE. Officers Elected and Resolutions Adopt- ed at Yesterday’s Session.

At the closing session last evening of the greenback conference, at Willard hall, a reso- lution, offered by J. D. Porter, of Charlottes- ville, Va., was adopted declaring “that it is the duty of the present administration to purchase for coinage four million dollars’ worth of silver bullion per month under the act of February 28, 1878; and that it is the duty of Congress, at the next session and without delay, to provide for the full use of both gold and silver as money according to the ratio of the two metals now established by law.” Mr. George O. Jones, from the committee second to prepare an address, reported one, which was adopted as follows: ‘For the pur- — of restoring the grand old national green- ack party to its place in the good opinion of the people; for the purpose of removing the slime and filth brought on the good names of ita founders; for the pu: of securing the passage of laws which will enable American farmers to make the price of their own pro- ducts, instead of having them made by those who would become bankrupt or starve without them; for the purpose of building an American merchant marine to distribute American pro- ducts under the American flag; for the purpose of establishing a financial policy that will take ours the strongest and most prosperous govern- mentand people in the world, and ultimtely make republicans and free men throughout the whole world, we ask those who are willing to sever their connection with all all other ties and factions, and henceforth act with the national greenback party, to communicate with the chairman of the national greenback committee, with a view to a thorough reconstruction of that party throughout the whole country. Your committee do not consider this the time nor place to issue a declaration of principles for the national greenback party, but to leave that to the national convention to be held at Cincin- nati, Ohio, Septemher 12. 1889. We regret that President Harrison did not indicate his future policy on financial questions. When he does so we shall deal with it as national greenbackers— on its merits.” a SS ee Transfers of Real Estate. Deeds in fee have been filed as follows: A. Williamson to T. D.

From the Chenango Journal. Why don’t women have pockets? They carry their purses in their hands and their handker- chiefs in their bodices, and they carry a little bag about as big as a pint cup on their arms, the exact use of which has never been defined. There is a liberal wholesaleness about the way @ man provides in the construction of his dress for his own wants that is actually refreshing in comparison with the way women inconvenience themselves. A man has plenty of pockets. He can carry keys. A woman is always wondering where she left or hid hers, When the exigen- cies of the weather cause him to have re- course to his ‘‘wipe” he puts a hand into his pocket and hauls out a liberal square of cambri A woman under like circum- stances just sniffs, and continues to en & man sits down in a street car he waite till the genii of the bell-punch and register stands in tof him, then he [age his thumb and forefinger in # tiny pocket in his overcoat and hauls out his ticket. woman begins to get her change r the conductor is at the other end of the car.

And is is a fair se of the way women hamper themselves in all the little things—and life is made up of them—and then complain of the disadvantages of sex. There is nothing on earth to prevent any individual woman from enjoying innumerable pockets, loose sleeves, bifurcated underskirts, short hair, &c., and all the other modern feminine improvements, cee A Clergyman at the Theater. From the Concord (N. H.) Monitor. One of the oldest, best-known, and most highly-respected clergymen of this state was for many years settled ina state farther west. After returning to New Hampshire he made a prac- tice of visiting his old congregations occasion- ally, taking a vacation of two or three weeks for | the purpose. On his way west on one of these visits he stopped over in Bo-ton, and went to sev Edwin Booth in one of he Shakesperian arts. He then finixhed his t 4 and retarn.ng ome, was surprixed to find all his society up in arms because he hagi been to the theater. It ended in his resigning, and in an explanatory address he stated the case as follows: “On my way out west 1 stopped in Boston und went to see Edwin Booth. and I enjoyed it very much, but by the time I reached New York the event had completely slipped from my mind. I vis- ited in several cit'es, and I never once thought of Booth.
