BUDGET OF FUN.

One of Max Adelers characters entered

to get your opinion about little polnt OF law.
S'posin, YOU lived next door to man named
johnson. And sposin' you was to say TO
Johnson that splendid illustration of the
superiOrity of the human intellect was to be
found in the power of the human eye to res
train the ferocity of u wild animal. And
s'posin' Johnson was to remark that that was
all bosh, and you should declare that you
could hold the savagest beast that was ever
born il you could once fix your gaze on him.
Well then s'posin Johnson was to say he'd
bet a hundred dollars he could bring tame
animal that you could mt hold with your eye,
and you was TO take him up on 1t, and John
son was to ask you to come down to this place
TO settle the bet You'd co. we'll say and
Johnson ID introduce a dog bigger'n any four
decent dogs ought to be, and sick him on you
and he'd come at you like sixteen-inch Shell
out of a howitzer, and you'd get skeery about
it aud try to hold the dog with your eye and
couldn't. And s'posin you'd suddenly con.
clude that maybe your kind of eye wasn't
calculated TO hold that kind of dog, ana
you'd conclude to break for plum tree. on
ketch my idea. Very we'll, then. Well, sir,
s'posin' just as you got three feet up the tree
Johnson's dog would grab you by the leg ana
hold on like "A wise, shaking you untll you
nearly lost your hold. And s'posin johnson
was to stand there and heller. Fix your eye
on him, Briggsr and SO on and s'posn he
kept that uog on that leg until he made you
swear to pay that bet, and then at last had to
pry the dog off with hot poker. S'posin
this, what want to know Is, couldn't you sue
johnson for damages"

A Water-PrOOf Democrat.

He was tramp, bound Chlcagowards and
as he boarded the couplers at the rear OF an
incoming engine Just across the line in In

had faith to believe that he had a "soft thing

with his eagle eye and railway lantern, soon
espied the money less passenger on his uncush,
Toned seat Did he order him off? No. lie

on and on went the tram, from station to sta.
ton, until it reached a great tank where the
engine stopped to "water up"
"Now for him, groaned the heartless con.
ductor, as he passed to the front.
Now for him." he maliciously continued
as lie grasped the wafer spout from the fire
mans hand and directed 1t back over the en-
CINE.
Now for him." he fiendishly grunted as he
heard Noah's deluge pouring over the head
and down the back of the luckless tramp.
All grew still, and the conductor ordered
his train on its way, convinced that he had
drowned the tramp, or at least Hooded him so
lar away that he could never get back again
But when the conductor drove into the de-
pot IN the early morning there was surprise
in store for him.

platform.

at Andersonville had placed him beyond
the recognition Of humanity, and had
made him the rival in atrocity Of Duke
Alya, Of the instigators Of St. Bartholo-
new, and the authors Of the Spanish In
ouisition. The picture which Blaine
drew 6i the suffefings Of Andersonyille
prisoners was one OF terror and
pathos. It brought deathly silence to
the House, and his fiercest opponents list
ened in mute and rapt attention. He
ended with an eloquent passage, in which,
in the name Of kindsmen, friends and
countrymen, he protested against invest
ing Jefferson Davis with full American

it appear that Blaine last year favored
an Unconditional amnesty bill. The GER

the Maynard bill, which was introduced
from the Committee on Rules, Of which
he was Chairman. Blaine had an expla'

since the last Congress, which had made
it more polite now for him to make n
red and fiery speech. Whatever else the
day did, it has certainly placed Blaine
openly in the field as n Presidential can.
