This one comes from Johns- burgh snd the boys are now having plenty of fun with the young man im­ plicated. It appears that the fellow in question passed a recent day in Mc­ Henry, where he collected a small ac­ count that was due him. Fearful that he would be robbed or otherwise lose his coin he exchanged a portion of the currency at local thirst parlors for what later in the day proved to be an "over­ stock" of merchaodise usually sold at such establishments. As it happened, there was a dance on at Johnsburgh that very same evening and it was W for the dance. Before going to the dance hall, however, Mr. Happy- boy had occasion to visit one of Johns­ burgh 'b stores. On entering the busi­ ness bouse he spied two young ladies at one of the counters and approaching them made his wants known. His ex elusive attention was first given the young lady who looked the best to him, bnt upon being handed a "lemon" from her he lost no time in turning his "spooning tale" to the other. When she, too, gave him the cold shoulder the fellow became most insistent, his urg­ ency in soliciting the one or other's con­ sent to become his "steady" at last forcing the girls to make a hasty exit from the store, bnt they did not get away until a merry game of tag had been played aronnd the counters and show cases of the store. After leaving the store, the girls went to tb» dance hall, where they passed a most delight­ ful evening with other fellows who looked far better to tbem than the look­ ing-for a Bteady young man. While imbibing more of the "mineral water," the young fellow, who received all the "kidding" and a little bit more than he had coming his way, was telling his. friends that he would land the girls yet and so confident was he in his ability to accomplish the feat that he repeatedly declared himself the lucky boy to see them home. While thus "soaking em up the young ladies were safely escorted to their homes, while B went home all alone. And now he thinks those girls are awfully, awfully inconsiderate: If yon have entertained company from a distance, gone on a visit yourself, met with an accident, have sickness or death in the family, entertained at a party, had a marriage in the family or any other bit of news that may be of general interest, hand or mail it to this office for publication.
