NO MAN KNOWS WIIKN TUB MOMENT Of UNCONSCIOUSNESS COMES. There is u remarkable fuel connected with Bleep which must not be overlooked. The sleep of a human being, if we arc not too busy to attend to the matter, always evokes a certain feeling of awe. (Jo into a room where a person is sleep ing, and it is difficult to ro-ist the sense that one is in the presence of the central mystery of existence, People who re member hnw constantly they see old Jones asleep in the club library will smile at this, but look quietly and alone even at old .lone, and the sen.o of mystery will soou develop. It is no guod to say that sleep is only "moving" beeauso it looks like death. The person who is breathing so loudly us to take away all thought of death causes the sense of awe quite us easily as the si lent sleeper who hardly seems to breathe We see dea'b seldom, but were it more familiar wo doubt if a corpse would inspire so much awe as Ihe unconscious and sleeping figure a smiling, irrespon slble doll, flesh atld blood, but a doll to whom in a second may be called a proud, active, controlling consciousness wbieli will ride his bodily and his mental h-rst with a hand of iron, which will foiei that body to endure toil and misery un will make that mind now wandering in paths ot taulastic lolly grapple with some great problem or throw a.

Thero is some disparity between their ages, for he is a chestnut three years old, while she is rounding 24. Ho has a remarkably gentle disposition and intelligence that has already won him a reputation throughout the section. Kllerson lives about four miles from Miss Davis' home, and the colt was born on his faim. He was alwava much afraid of strangers, and when one would approach he would gal lop away. One day while hllerson was on hit way to Whitney's l'oint, with the colt hitched by a leading Blrap to the wagon, he stopped to take in Miss Davis, Instantly the colt heard her voice he be gan acting in tho strangest manner, tup ging at the halter as though to free him self. At last his efforts were successful and he broko bis strap, but, instead ol ruuning off, cavorted around the wagon, and when Miss Davis alighted thrust his nose into her band and refused to leave her. When she cgain mounted the seat ho made clumsy efforts lo follow her, und when the l'oint was reached, and she parted company with Hilcrson, the colt whinned aud made desperate efforts to follow. On other occasions when she saw li e animal he acted in a similar manner, and at last Mr. Klleisou sold it to her for nomiual sum. 1 he animal snows many nf (he attributes of I human lover.

It was at the canteen that the follow ing story was told by a regular, stretched luxuriously on the grass in the midst of foiiiu bedecked schooners : Tulk about your generals, Chaffee's ihe old hoy for my money, I found out what be was at Kl fancy. My company us at work digging trenches and while we we finishing up one tho Spaniards icgan to fire, and tho bullets sang their little tunes petty nigh to our heads. Well, there was a kid in the company that couldu't have been over 18. Never ought to have let biin enlist at all. lie was always complaining and kicking, and at Ihe first fire down he went on his face, and lay there. One of tho men kicked him, but ho didu't slir. Then along came Chaffee, cool aud easy, and sees ihe kid. 'Hello, there 1' said Chaffee. 'Whal's the matter, you fellow diwn there? tlet up aud light with your company., No, I can't,' whines the kid. Can't says Chaffee, jumping dowu into the trench and hauling the hoy up. What's the matter with you that you can't ? Aro you hurt ?' " 'No, sir, says he. 'I'm scairt, I'm afraid of getting hit.' Well, you're a fine soldier,' says l lie general. Then he looked at the b 'jisb face of the kid and his face kind of softened. 'I suppose you can't help it,' he Baid. 'It ain't much your fault. I'd liko to get hold of the fellow that took you into the army.' "I suppose any other general would have sent the kid to the rear in disgrace, aud that would have been the end of it: hut Chaffee stood there wilh the bullets flying around him beside the boy, who had crouched down again, and thought, with his chin in his hand. I'y aud hy lic put his hand on the boy's shoulder. There isn't as much danger as you think for,' he said. 'Now, you get up and lake your guu and fight and I'll aland here by you.' "The boy gut up shakiug like a leal and fired his first shot pretty uear straight into the air. 'That's pretty high,' says the general. 'Keep cool and try again.' "Well, sir, in three miuutes that scairt kid was fighting like a veteran and cool as a cucumber, and wheu be saw it the general started on. " 'i'ou're all right now, my hoy,' he said, 'You 11 make a good soldier. " 'tiod bless you, sir,' said the youug s.er. 'You saved me from worse thau death,' and ho was pretty close to crying when he said it. "Altera while the order came to retire from the trench, and wc just had to collar that kid and haul him away by the neck to get him to retreat with his company. And, at thai he got a bullet through the Beshy p.ut of bis shoulder an hour before. In the rest of the fights there wasn't a better soldier in the com piny, and not only that, but we never heard a grumble ot a kick from biin from that day." Ilr.

Stevenson told nic a siory on HockbriJge Seoleb Irishmen a year or two ago that is worth lepeating. Two ul'tbein becalm) involved iu a lawsuit over Home mailer, quite tri vial. After considerable delay il was brought to trial in the Cnunly Court, and in due course Mr. McClelland was lolling the jury what he knew about the ease. "Now, Mr. McClelland," said the counsel, "what did Mr. 1'axton say?" The opposing counsel was on his feet iu a moment, piotcstiug against the iniiodue lion of hearsay testimony. The point was elaborately argued, the jury having been taken out. When counsel had talked themselves out, the Court decided that tho question must not be allowed, and the jury was brought back and the trial proceeded, the counsel who had tried lo get in what was decided to be hearsay testimony, noting an exception. He lost the ciise, but got a new trial, carrying it up to the Circuit Court. Iu the course of the trial in ibis body Mi. McClelland was again ou the stand, and again was askeJ. to tell the jury what Mr. 1'axton had said. As before- opposing counsel objected, ihe jury waB sent out, the point was fully argued, and as' in tho lower court, the Ju lge decided the question in-admi-sibie. Counsel a-king the question ooted an except! m, and wlieo the jury finally decided the case agaiosl hij client, took an appeal to the Supreme Court of Appeals on this point. After long delay this tribunal heard the case, decided the question was admissible, and ordered a new tiial. So the case was cirried back to the Couuly Court, aud by and by came to trial. Nearly three years had elapsed since it had first beeu heard iu this court. Mr. McClelland was again put oil the stand, and finally was asked to tell the jury what Mr. l'axtou had said on a cerlaiu uccasion. Theie was eager lis tening lo Ihe court-room, tor everybody was aniious lo hear what 1'axton really had said. Couusel opposed to the lawyer who had asked the quosiiou sprang up to bjeC, but the Judge stepped him. "The Su,reme Court has decided the question i, Imissible," besaid. "Mr. McClt-llaud, tell jury what Mr. l'axtou said." Kvery b idv iu lite court-room bent lorward e.gerly. Mr. MeClcilaud expelled a qoid of tobacco from his mouth, cleared hn throat, nod said : "Well, gentlemen, hi never siid a denied word. Didu't 0 ?n his head.

Tho other day several gentlemen were in conversation about things in general when the subject tune d on preachers and ihe work I hey had to do. Oue of ibeiu remarked that il was an easy job lo write two sermons a week, that any man of ordinary intelligence could do this and h ive much lime at his di-pisal. "L"t's see about thai," said one of the party. "Think you em write a sermon on almost any "text?" he asked. "Yes, of course I can," was ihe answer. "All right, take down Ibis text and let's sec what you can do," and turning to a llible he gave him ibis, from the"lh chapter of Isaiah, L'Oih verse : "In the same day the L ml shall abivo wilh a razor lhat is hired, namely by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the bead, and the hair of the feet: and it also shall consume the beard." This has been several days ago and although the gentleman i prelty well posted aud is at work on ii, the prospect is that be will require over a week to get it up. lie is busy seeking references, concordances, etc. He is a studious gentleman and lie will it up a good one, no doubt. It is not a sale thing, however, to bank on what or how little work another man has to do. You can't always tell Greensboro Hecord.
