A Scene IN the sheriH's Office.

:
A newly elected sheriff was sitting
in his office sad-eyed and haggaa'd.
He held in his hand astaek of manu-
script representing the applications Of
eight hundred and seventy-nine can
|didates, for positions Of deputy sheriff,
each one of whom said he had worked
flor him at the polls, and had gained
him all The way up from two hundred
to one thousand votes from their per-
sonal friends who did not vote the
Democratic tlcketa ~ e 81 &c Is
A man attired in a blue shirt, with
paper collar and a red nose, entered
the Office, and, grasping the hand of
the tired official, greeted him cordially.
"Ah, Mr.. Sheriff, but it's glad am to
see you looking SO heartily don't you
know me 2"
Il don't think / do" remarked the
official, although there is something
in your face that is familiar to me-"
"Ah, Mr. Sheriff, 1 thought you'd
know me. l worked for you all day
election, and got you one thousand
votes, and / come for that place" az,
"Well, I am sorry to say, that have
already promised all the places at my
disposal" 5
"Oh, give NE place; I don't care
what it is. o. ~ ,
"Oh, by the by" said the sheriff,
! with malicious grin in his eye, 'theIe
is place, but it is not worth much,
aud l don't think you'd take il"
.'Ah, Mr. Sheriff, I'll take anything,
l don't care what Kind Of a place it is,
Tell me what it is, and Ill jump at it
with my coat off.
"AH right" said the sheriff; 'there
is Chinaman going to be hanged at
the Jail next month, and he wants
somebody to take his place. / think
it will suit you"
The man with the red nose ceased 10
smile, and asking the sheriff for quar-
ter to pay for his lodging that night,
he left the office and mingled with the
throng of wouldsbe deputy sheriffs on
the outside. -TSan Francisco Call.

car was passing up Croghan street yes
terday woman about twenty-five
years old stood on a crossing. The
driver prepared to stop the car, but she
motioned him to keep on, saying:
Don't trouble yourself about me"
AS the hind end Of the car came up
she jumped for it, and her head struck
the conductor under the chin and nearly
lifted him off his feet. .e
"What are you loafing around here
for?' she asked as she bumped around
and grabbed at the railing.

How Ee Spends His Per Diem.

A Southside Senator-a distinguish
ed ex Confederate officer-upon whose
honest face Nature has set her ruddiest
glow, and who, in consequence, is of-
tentimes unjustly suspected of being a
drinking man, was one of the COM
nittee appointed to go to Williamsburg
to investigate the causes and damages
of the late fire at the Asylum. Pass.
ing through one Of the wards he met a
Jolly Irish patient, who was witty and
amusing, and With him our Southside
Senator talked for some time. AT last
the luna;ic inquired; s~sss
What do you get for your work
Six dollars a daysreplied the Senator.
Is that all, said the lunatics
Yes, was the response.
And do you have to buy your whis.
kew out of that? s.st.E slS,
Yes answered the Senator.
Then, said the Irishman, you must
have very little left.
Here the laugh came in against the
Senator, ard he retired from the cons
versation.
