 A well dressed man, who ride g handsome nag, IS always sure of a warm welcome at pubic house all the world over. Our friend soon found himself in a neat parlor with flowers and vases on the mantle piece. and the blinds { for 1t was summer afternoon carefully closed, while the open win dows permitted the free current of all to circulate through the apartment.
 The waiter remains standing near by the door.
 Any orders, sir?'
 Moves stay, who came in tha handsome pheton I saw standing in tho yard?'
 "A lady, sir 'Ah.'
 "A young widow
 'Bah,'
 'She is very handsome.'
 Go along and shut the door after you,' muttered the traveller testify.
 "A young widow he soliloquised; I am glad 1 don't know her. I am cer- tainly very Fortunate to have attained the age of forty without any femi- nine attachment.

And now for the newspaper
 In the meantime another horseman had arrived at the hotel, his horse reeking with sweat, and literally un- able to place one foot before another. The same ostler now made his ap- pearance.

 'Och, Misthur Traverse, and she's kilt entirely Pm afraid so.'
 And what in the devil made you crowd her so.' No matter. Is my sister here..'
 Yes, sir. Show the gentleman into the ladies' parlor.'

A CITY WITH TWELVE THOUSAND DEsTRoYED.-In the
 foreign news by Atlantic, it is sta
 ted that, on the first of May, the lefty ofShraz, in Persia, was destroy led, with twelve thousand of its inhab- itants, by the shock of an earthquake. This is the second city in Persia,
 and in former years had population
 of 40, 900 persons, but an earthquake in 1924 nearly destroyed it. It
 was formerly place of great
 beauty, and is celebrated by the Per |sian poet Hafiz, who was a native of Shiraz, for its beauty and fertility. |Since the earthquake 1924, it has greatly declined in both, most of it's public structures having been ruined by that calamity.

A lad, a day or two since, was called to the witness stand at the Common Pleas Court, Philadelphia.
 whose tender years raised doubt as
 to his competency as witness, by not understanding the nature and obligations of an oath. The first ques- ton put was-"are you a son of the plaintiff" The little fellow crossing his legs, and deliberately putting about half of a paper of tobacco into his mouth, replied with the utmost coolness: Well, it's so reported"

 GENERAL TAYLOR WHEN PREsI. DENr.-A book about Mexico and the United States. written by Will am P. Robertson, has just appeared in England, and the following is an extract from that part giving an ac- count of the authors visit to Wash lngton:
 :'Mr. Crampton invited us to his pew for the following day (Sunday9 where, he told us we should have an opportunity of seeing the President and his family. We went accord |ingly, and in pew only two remov- ed behind us there, as plain citizen, sat Zachary Taylor. He carried not with him the slightest outward ind- cation of his being the chief magis- trate and ruler of one of the most powerful nations on the face of the globe. Here was no Prince Presi- dent surrounded by glitter, ,and show and Domp. General Taylor simply made one of the congregation, undis- tinguishable and unremarked. There was something grander in this than in mere regal display, in so far as sold power, without show, impresses the mind much more strongly than show without solid power.
 "Nothing could well be more orig nal than the personal appearance of the late President of the United States, 10 whom his countrymen gave the soubriquet of Rough and Ready He was dressed in suit of plain clothes, his blue coat of any thing but the last Bond street cut. The weather being cold, he wore colored worsted gloves, which were something too long. His straight hair fell smoothly on his forehead, while his face Drowned under many sun. his temples furrowed with many tough, gave token of the deeds he had performed, and of the anxie,ies he had suffered in his coun- try's cause. He had pleasing ex- pression in his eye; and now, humbly standing in the presence of his Maker. surrounded by his fellow citizens. all within seemed tranquil and serene. There was notthe slightest approach
 to aristocratic bearing about the man quite the reverse. 1 could have fancied I was 1T. the parish church of Deal, contemplating the figure of some bold, tried and weather beaten pilot, scrupulously dressed in his Sunday suit, donned for the decent perform ance of the solemn ordinance of the day"
