old, and the other day an ambitious re-
porter went round there to chat with
her and ask her if she remembered any
thing about Hull's surrender. BY mis-
take he knocked at the wrong door, and
the lady of the house aged forty, opened
it and demanded his business. 6 came

up his hat and sought to explain, but

One of the oldest and best known OF
the Brooklyn amateur dramatic associa-
tons had among its members gentle
man we'll known as g society man, :"
who was almost always called upon to
officiate at the receptions, but who i'm
agined that he possessed dramatic talent
and desired to distinguish himself upon
the stage. At last the play commit
tee" cast him, giving him the part of a
captain of troop of soldiers, and all
that he had to do was to march at the
head of his troop and upon the firing of
a gun to exclaim, "Ah, gum
As the story goes, for several weeks
he was to be seen of mornings leaning
over the railing of Wall street
ferry-boat, whispering to himself the
words, All! gun. All. a gun" The
long looked-for evening came at last;
the captain, respondent in a CANDY uni
form, marched in with his troop, the
report of the gun was heard in the
wings, and, with start. the captain
cried out, "Hello! what's that?" The
audience perhaps were not startled, but
the effect upon the captains fellows
upon the stage and in the committee
may be imagined.

RECENTLY an old chap, poorly clad,
called in large establishment and asked
for aims, stating that he hadn't had any
thing to eat for two days.
Cant give anything replied the
proprietor.
"Then lend me something"
"No; can't do it,"
"Won't you give knife or tobacco
box?" pleaded the beggar.
"No; can't do it,"
COR an old hat, or some nails, or
whiplash?"
II can't give you anything at all"
was the reply.
The beggar looked around, sighed
heavily, and said:
Well, I'm mighty hard up and I'm
willing to take most anything. Lemme
squat on this salt barrel for half an
hour and I'll consider it five dollars in
cash."
