823 Woodlawn Park. Foolish Act of a Young Lover. In the spring of 1889 a young Irishman named Herman Fitzgerald, who had arrived in America a few months before, mado his way into Perry county, and obtained employment with a farmer. He was industrious aud got along well. As the autumn came on the young man fell in love with tho sister of his employer.

Their mutual attachment was observed by Fitzgerald's friends, and they guyed him unmercifully about his love affair. Patience ceased to be a virtue, and he became involved in a quarrel with two of his tormentors, who thrashed him. He felt the disgrace of his defeat and left the place, hoping to forget all about his troubles. Ho stopped at a farmhouse in Juniata county, twenty miles away, and remained there over night, giving the name of Nicholas Paret. He heard the farmers talking about the burning of two barns a short timo before, and immediately concocted the story that ho was the incendiary.

On the following day he went before a justice and confessed the crime. He was pluced in the county jail, and ia December was convicted. When the court sentenced him to ten years and six months in the western penitentiary Fitzgerald realized his serious position, and on tho way back to tho jail he admitted to the sherill that he had not told the truth; that he knew nothing whatever of tho crime, and thr.t. Lis motive in telling the story was that lie wanted to go to jail about six months in order to escape his persecutors in Perry county. This story reached the ears of the young fellow's friends, and steps were immediately taken to procure his release.

As his first "confession" had been doubted on the trial, not only by the court but by the district attoruoy and the jury, they all united in a plea to the board of pardons in his behalf. The application was argued before the board and the case was hold under advisement, the probabilities being that lyi would be pardoned at the next sitting. In the interval a telegrnp reached the board that tho unfortunate youngman had died in the penitentiary of typhoid fever. Chicago Times. Hot.

TO HIM WHO WAITS. Story of a Fool C'hnh, an Acrobatic and a Spindle Shanked Crane. Eel Judge Hollis, of Woodhull, is not what might be called an expert all around sports man, out he can llsn a little ana hunt a little. Whether he can do a little in that other accomplishment which it is popularly believed all hunters apd fishers possess to a greater or less degree and can embel lish a little, the following account which he gives of a recent exploit of his is the best test. He went fishing tho other day.

He wasn't out after any particular kind of fish, but simply wanted fish. He hooked a big chub after fishing until he was getting tired, but lost it in raising it from tho water. He spat on his hook and quickly threw in again, right where he lost the chub. "From what I know about these fool chubs," said the judge, "that one will take the hook right away again." Tho bait had hardly sunk when the judge got another bite. It gave a stiff tug and started away.

The judge hooked his fish. "Any chub that fools with my hook twice, he remarked, "is as good as sizzling In my frying pan." The judge yanked the fish out of the water. It wasn't a chub. It was a two pound eel. "You don't catch me fooling with no leather headed chubs when I can get eels," aid tho judge, as ho pulled his wriggling, squirming prize toward him.

He lifted the eel out of tho water and made a grab for its neck and got it. Before the judge could exactly figure out how it was done the eel had climbed up his arm, twined Itself a moment around his neck, and then went down his left leg as if the leg were spiral stairs. The next thing the judge knew the eel had scooted back to tho river and disappeared in it, leaving tho judge with his pole and part of te line, but no hook. "That settles it!" he exclaimed. "I'm after fish, not eels.

When I want anything of that kind I'll go and spear snakes." Then, the judge says, he started home hot and disgusted. On his way he discovered a big, long legged crane standing in the water watching for fish. "I guess I'll go home and get my gun," said the judge, "and kill that crano." He hurried home and got his gun. When he came back the crane was still on the watch for fish. The judge sneaked up to within easy range and blazed away.

The srane looked around surprised, and then flew off languidly. The judge looked after the crane until it disappeared. Then he examined his gun. "This don't seem to be my day for sport," aid he, and went home. He wasn't entirely satisfied with the way things Lad gone, though, and that night he thought lie might even things up by putting out a ct lino in tho stream, and let it try its luck for him during the dim and stilly watches of the night.

So he put out his set line and went home and to bed. Bright and early next morning ho went out to see what tho set line had done for him. When he got to tho spot he saw a crane standing in the water right where his lino was. As the judge approached the crane rose to fly away, but something pulled it back again into tho water with a jerk. The judge was too much surprised to speak, and he hardly knew what to do.

Finally he made up his mind to capture the crane, which ho did. Then he found that it had swallowed one of his hooks and more than half of the line it was tied to. This naturally called for a little further investigation, which resulted in tho discovery that the reason the crane had swallowed the hook was because there was a two pound eel fast to it. The judge says that his sur prise was increased when he saw in the eel's jaw the hook and piece of lino he had lost the day before, but when he found that tho reason the eel had taken the set line hook that subsequently led the crano to take the eel was because a one pound chub had gobbled the hook first, he just sat down and fanned himself with his hat to keep from fainting. "Because there was the fool chub that got away from mo the day before," says the judge, "and there was the acrobatic eel that had climbed all over me arid then stole my hook, and there was the spindle shanked crano that jumped out of the way my gun, all caught on one hookt If all don't come to him who waits, then I'd like know why."
