The only difficulty he encountered | was in explaining to some of them just what a battleship was, As to a! threatened war, noone bad ever heard | of such a thing, and Capt. Owen was) amazed when he returhed after a three weeks’ sojourn to find hiscoun- | s try about to have a brash with Spain. When a fellow gets isolated in some| portions of that county, he never gets to see a newspaper or anything else. To leave it is to emerge into a new world, If some of the accounts of drum- mers and others who have been into the wilderness are to be relied upoa, it would bea fiue country for gold brick and green goods men. When the war is over and we have exterminated Spain, Capt.

That is, enjoy} life as the books have him enjoying it. He had freely expressed himself} to his friends when talk of war arose, and they had been expecting him to leave most any day for some navy| yard to begin duty. One of his friends came to the city a few days ago, and on his way home decided to test the young man's bravery, When he drove up in front of the cross roads store, one of the first to greet him was the young man with the abnormal appetite for naval glory. “Well, it looks like a fight sure enough,’’ began the man from the city. He was straightaway by the excited yokels, clamored for news, ‘What's the latest’’’ young man as he stood pictured himself arrayed unifore, “The Spanish have played the devil’ was the reply. ‘They have planted about a thousand mines and | torpedoes he harbor at Havana, and Uncle Sam has ordered all his ships down there to take the city, He has called for ten thousand yolun- teers for naval service, and I guess they'll be sending around here pretty soon, We may all have to gc.’’ There was by this time a decided change in the young man's demeanor, and he started away when they called to him and asked him when he ex- pected to leave for service. ‘Don’t guess 1 can go,’’ he sard, “Can't go?’? was the chorus “Why, we thought you would be the first to leave when the call came.’’ **T did too,’’ he replied, ‘but told’ me today that he needed me at home, and I guess I'll have to stay “But they've insulted your coun- try,’’ suggested someone. “Can’t help it,’? was the resolute |° rejoinder, ‘*they ain't insulted me.’’ And the last seen of him, be was going towards home to ‘help pa.’” i surrounded who fairly the and rine asked erect in m ti It is a matter of interest to note that despite the fact that Paduesh has all kinds of stock laws, the streets are always ornamented with all kinds of quadrupeds, The latest acquisition to the catagory of dead letter ordinances is the “Billy goat” restriction. ‘This law is designed to protect particularly the residents of | Mechanicsburg. but the people down town need one far more than their neighbors. The only difference is that the goats up across the creck run at large, and those down here do not.
