An Absent-mfnded Judge.

Quite an amusing adventure befell Judge
Van Buren on Saturday evening, which
created no small amount of merriment
among his friends. The Judge, it appears,
had ordered a new pair of boots from a
shoemaker on State street, and he went
over on Saturday to put them on. The
shoemaker put up the old boots in a brown
paper parcel, and his Honor walked away
with the parcel in his hand, the new boots
on his feet. Coming to huckster stand op-
posite the postotfice, he spied pair of fine
fat chickens, which he thought would make
an excellent Sunday dinner. He bought
them, and the storekeeper put them up in
brown paper parcel. The Judge, rather
heayy-laden. proceeded homewards. with
the old boots in one band and the chickens
IN the, other. AFTER all" thought he,
1.-THE old boots are of no use to me anyhow !;
l may as well give them to some poor man
and relieve myself. 1t will be doing a
charity to both parties." At the corner OF
the street he encountered a eolored man.
= "Here, friend,'' said the Judge, handing
him brown parcel, ''there's present for
you, and hope they'll fifth 3d1 lE l51
! "Thank you, sir,'- said the astonished
darkey. I'm sure they will" and he went
on his way rejoicing. .-
The Judge also went on his way, glad at
heart. He met some friends at the door of
Mr.. Jordan, the undertaken, on Clara street.
|
Honor, in a CHEEKY tone "business brisk ?'
Mr.. Jordan looked grave. --.-...,i,, .
II have just bought pair of splendid
j chickens" said the Judge, for Sundays
dinner. Just look at them" And he pro-
ceeded, to open the parcel for inspection.
"Chickens y exclaimed Mr.. Jordan, "why
they look mighty like a pair of very old
boots. L shouldn't like to have them
chickens in my stomach" aIJ i - mi
~ The Judge took off his hat and scratched
his head. why, hang me if I haven't CIV
en- that darkey the chickens after all. Well,
Pm a pair OF boots ahead, and pair OF
4 chickens short" s-.7aI sdi sea .yrh@5uT
q We hope the colored gentleman will en-
joy his dinner to-day. Should he discover
by what mistake they came into his pos
session, it may he suggested that the boots,
having been intended for him, he may now
lawfully claim them. But he had bet
ter first, dispose of the chickens.-Ch Chicago
