General jeff. G. Davis, of the United
States army, tells couple of good stories.
Twenty years ago, when the general, then
a lieutenant, was at Brownsville, Texas,
there was man there from the States who
knew everything. You couldn't speak of
anything but that he was posted. One day
they got some "Goshen butter" and after
eating it, some one asked this knowing
chap what he knew about Goshen butter
He said be ought to know all about it, he
used to 60 to school with old Goshen him.
self. Another day the Natural Bridge of
Virginia was under discussion, when he was
asked if he knew anything about that. He
said he guessed he ought to, as his father
sunk 100000 building that bridge.
''Is THAT anthracite or bituminous 2"
asked gentleman the other day of man
engaged in dumping load of coal down
hole in the deck of one of the Brooklyn fer
ry-boats "Eh ?" replied the map of coal.
ais that anthracite or bituminous 2" again
inquired the seeker Of knowledge in a
bland and couciliatory voice. "Ef you
mean that place where I'm dumpin' this
here coal down, it's the ire-room, replied
the son of toll, with look Of pity at the
questioner for his ignorance. There were
no more questions asked.

London has caught up with Chicago at
last. A girl was arrested in London for
stealing lot of babies, and selling the
clothes which she stripped off of them to
get money to attend theatres. We had
rather give girl our dead-head ticket to
any theatre she may choose than have her
steal our baby.
A pocket has been invented for the
sleeve of mans overcoat, so that when
he has woman on his arm she can put
her hand in to keep it warm. 1t will be a
long time before they will get over the
habit Of putting their hands into mems
pantaloons pockets, where the pocket book
is. That overcoat pocket will have to be
baited with pocket-book few times
before it will come into general use.
