The next day the young man enter

The next day the young man enter
ed the Office In his hand he bore a
rifle, and his belt was ornamented
with big six-shooter and tremen-
dous bowie knife. He sailed up to
the reporter. Il look war like, don I
/? l don't feel bit like fightin' you
bet. You jest oughter seen her when
she read that correction. Why, she
jest danced Jig with madness, she sot
down and cried, and then she came
and threw her arms around my neck
and said: Arthur, do You love me-
You bet yer best bonnet on that,
says [. Well. never expect me to
speak to you again, if you don't go and
kill the feller that writ that SANDER.
In course 1 promised. And here [
am to kill you" He laughed heartily
And after a time he quieted down,
and the reporter said: Il suppose. in
order to make it all right between you
and your girl, I've got to become a
corpse. I'll do it. Sit there a min
ute, and I'll fix the business He
sat down at a desk, and scribbled
away for few minutes, and then re-.
turned with a sheet of paper on which
was written:
"OBITUARY.-It grleves US to be
compelled to announce the sudden
death of Mr.. Charles Keller, the
young and talented fashion editor
In a moment of mental alteration, he
had slandered an estimable young
lady of this city, named Miss frankie
Clarke. Yesterday her betrothed
called at this Office and asked for the
author of the slander, and when he
discovered him shot him on the spot
This paper will be unable to give any
more fashion gossip hereafter. We
find it impossible to fill the place left
vacant by Mr.. Keller. Though errat-
ic, he was man of kindly heart, and
could listen more attentively to stale
stories and drink more bad whisky
than any man in Austin RIP
That's your sort, said the infuriat-
ed lover That's the thing to add.
Come along, Mr.. Corpse, and hist in a
little lightning" The lady was salts
fed when the paragraph appeared in
the next issue Of the paper. the lover
was regarded as hero, and the Aus
tin paper ceased to give reports of
fashionable balls

A Pennsylvania lady engaged q
berth in a palace sleeping coach.
when she was ready to retire she
took from her satchel gum bed,
which she inflated and placed in
the berth she was to occupy. It
happennd that her berth WAS very
close to the stove, and the heat caus
ed the gum bed to expand until the
pressure got SO great that it collap-
sed with tremendous shock, and
the passengers jumped out of their
berths in their night clothes think
ing there was q collision The force
of the collapse threw the lady
against the ceiling of the berth, but
did not hurt her.

The fashion reporter of an Austin
! City, New, paper describes the belle
of the masquerade bail in the following
astounding language:
The most gorgeous. high toned. rich
est, fastest-classest, incest, or any
other adjective for costume in the
outfit, was that worn by Miss
frankie Clark. She was the hifalu-
finest, gayest, and galusest dressed
gal in the room. She appeared in the
room as a page. and she was page
that any man would leave another to
read. Both in costume and action she
was as perfect as big sunfower"
A couple of days after the appear
ance of the notice into the editorial
room of the paper stalked a young
man. His brow was wrapped in thun-
der, his body in suit of tweed. and
his hand clasped big lump of hick-
ory. He pulled paper out of his
pocket, and pointing his finger to the
para graph, said: II want ter see the
man as writ that ere" Il am the in
dividual, replied the person What
did you go and do that for, that what
want to know?" oh. because l
thought you would like to see your

at the club. For moment the re-
porter stood in profound thought;
then his face frightened up. and he
looked up and said: III fix it in
next weeks paper. After you have
seen the next issue, call and tell me
the result" The young man left
In the next weeks paper appeared
the following paragrai b:

1t is true that she appeared for what
was intended to represent page, but
she looked a good deal more like a
bootblaek in hard luck. She is not
good looking. her actions were absurd.

In the autobiography of this distin-
gulshed statesman, contained in the
first volume of his letters and CORES
pondence We find the following para
graph:
Nothing is more certainly written
in the book of fate than that these
people (slaves) arc to be free; nor is it
more certain that the two races,
equally free cannot live in the same
government. Nature, habit. opinion
have drawn inIellible lines of distinc-
tion between them"
The first part of Mr.. Jefferson q
prophecy has been fulfilled, but the
latter has not and never will, in NV
opinion, come to pass. The colored
people have now been their own mas
ters for many years, and yet those in
deilble lines of distinction" have so
far remained hidden Not only do
they live in that government which.
when they should become free, Mr..
Jefferson declared would be impossi-
bic, but they help conduct that gov
ernment. We see them as Jurors in
important trials, We see them filing
positions in the public departments.
and We even see their dusky yissges
In our legislative halls. Now | do
