She wentto North Carolina soon after the civil war, d took charge of the Jonesville trot' school, She was between y and fifty, and her reputation | for fearlesness and decision of char- : [acter in connection with the kitchen r made her a terror to tramps 'evil doors generally.. The nt little cottage in which Miss 01 pl {Towner lived alone, without even a | servant, bad a email yard: attached to it, which scemed eminently ad- ted. to". chicken culture, Mish Towner had made several attempts to kedp chickens, but the magnetism Zi of the colored element wasaltogethor too etrong,' and she had definitely abandoned the undertaking when she read'of the Massachusetts man's trap. It was clear to her that what ever could be done by & good-fora nothing man, eonld be done better by an intelligent woman, and ac- cordingly she resolved to stock her empty¥chicken house, and to get up a new and original trap. After | much thought she hit upon the plan to |Of 8 noose trap. She procured a | og rope, which she passed through a a pulley placed on the limb ota treo near the chicken house. To one end of the rope was attached a weight of two hundred pounds, and to the other end noose, and the weight was so aranged that s slight pull on the noose would cause it to shoot into the air, dragging with it the unfortunate colored mun whose unlawful foot had entered it. One afternoon she received a supply of chickens, whi¢h she placed in the chicken houss, making no effort to conceal" the fact from the colored public. Just boforo dark she set her trap and repeatedly tested it by pok- ing tho noosa with a stick, About nine o'clock that evening 8he fancia, ed she heard a noise in the yard, and it ocepred to her that some one might be prowling about the chicken house. Bho therefore laid aside her copy of "Edwards on the Will" toek up the poker, and crept stealthily into "the yard. It was a bright moenlight night, but no one was visable, and after making sure that or chickens were all sufo, she was about to roturn to her roading, when she accidently stepped within the fatal noose. The trap did credit to her inventive genius, The noose eanght her by both ankles, and in in instant she found herself awing- ing with hor head just clear of the ground. With great presence of mind sho put her hands on the ground, and thus in some measure relieved ber ankles of the strain of her entireweight, - It was, however, impossible for her to releaso hersclf J and it was with difficulty that she could either breathe or see. There was cloarly #othing to be done but to wait until some carly chicken stealer should arrive and appeal to him for aid. Miss Towner did not have long to wait. By half-past nine Mr. Hannible Blue approached the yard on chickens bent, but of an unfortunately timorous mind.-- When ho came in sight of the mys- forious and appaling spectacle pre- gented by Miss Towner, ho remark- ed, "Golly I" in* accents of greatest terror and fled away, convinced that 'he bad seen & ghost, while Miss | Towner, with a voice stifled ' with {emotion and flannel, in' vain be- + | sought him to come back. Moeting a dozen of bis fellow citizens, who were on: their way. to the chicken hose, Mr. Blue explained that be thad been driven away by a pecul- arly frightful ghost dressed entiroly in white and holding both its arma apright above its hed. He eould not, however, induce his friends to share his fears, and strong in the ; consciopknoss of numbers, they pur- sued their way to Miss Towner's yard. At. the first sight of tho al- leged ghost they were undeniably alarmed. but finding tbat it did not fi attack them, they gained courage | In time hey re- not identify ee They kept their word, and before. 1 o'clock Miss Dinah Washington ar rived and lowered Miss Towner carefully to the ground, uninjared, except by somowhat excessive 'tendency of blood 10 tha head. ---- Montmental Affection. She was » handsome and woalihy | U! young widow, and bad but just lost her husbarid, * Full of grief over the loss of her beloved one, she sought a {dealer in monuments, p friend df the dear departed her husband's friend, the tears burst afresh from her eyes, as sho greetod him, sobbing, "You have Leard ", George is gone!" . Yes he had heard it. « And now," said she, "I wail to got a monum at you can make I don't eare for expense. You have them costing ten thousand dellars, do you not," she ventures: O,yes, he could build her a splen- did monument for that. He would prepare a design and submit it to or. "You will have it soon, will you not?" she pleaded. ¢ This even- ng " "No, not this evening," he re plied, but be would hurry it up ss fast as possible and bring it to her residence. And 0 it was settled, and she went away very grateful for the ready sympathy, and anxiously expectent for the design. Then the monument man got out an old design and hdd it transferred to a clean piece of paper and in fifteen mintes it was ready for the widow, but of course it wouldn't do to show up fora week or so. The long days dragged out their weary lenggh finally, and the marble man assumed an appropriately funeral conntenarce, sought out the widow and submitted his work. He found her: somewhat more reconciled to ber loss and a little inclined to be critical, but on the whole she was pleased with the design. " But," she said, "l have been talking with my sister and sbe thinks five thousand dollars oaght to buy avery nice monument.-- five thousand ?" " No," responded he, "but T.ean build you a handsome monument for five thousand. Shall I make a |: design of one for that figure ?" "Yes, I wish you would please, and I will come to your office and examine itin a week or two," "Not at all," be replied. submit it to you." "Oh, no; I won't trouble you to do so, Thore i is no particular hurry about it and I will call upon you; its my turn, you know," and she smiled graciously upon him as she bowed him out. Well, what was the poor monument mantodo? He could only wait, and he did wait, busying himself mean while in getting up' elaborate and really beautiful = designs. One day he met the lady on the street, dressed in the merest apology for mourning.-- He bowed obsequiously and informed her that the design was finished, and he thought it would not fail to be per- fectly satisfactory. x « Qh," she said, "I have'been 0 busy, don't you know, with one thing and another, that I had forgotten all about it, Let me see, iow much was that to cost 2', ; «Five thousand dollars." "Qh, dear, Ireally can't affort to "I will thig very nice monument for abont five hundred dollars ? I know you can, and I will come round and see you soon; good- bye." Then the monument man went to his office and told his grief t0 8 three- 8 a few slight bruises and | Seeing pu sympathetic fabo of | Conldn't you make one like that for |, 'were gone and 75 cents in re their place. draft on Tiondon I left 35 unde this weight!" y «Yes, sir" ; " And now I hd only conts I" been gone five 'migutes' when aman came in with & bill against you ot| $14.25, and I paid it. 1 guess the change is correct."
