ties whom he has known during his long
life, and in the course of his "reminiscences
tells this story of the Duke of Wellington:
+" The late Lord Derby, when having one
of his country mansions decorated, was
having the central floor either painted or
tesselated. A young man was at work on
one OF the walls, when the Earl ordered .
number of slippers to be thrown on the
dorm desiring this young man to
order any one that came In 70 put on .

turned from hunting, and the Duke, with
his splashed boots. opened the door and
rushed along the hall. The young man
Immediately jumped OF the ladder on
which he was painting, and Selling His
Grace by the shoulder, fairly.pushed him
out of the house. In the couTSe of the
afternoon Lord Derby summoned al the
household and men sat work into the
study, and, seating himeeIf beside the
great warrior, demanded who he'd had the
impertinence 70 push BE Duke out of
doors. The painter, III Of trembls,
came forward any said: II was I, my

to each other for his benefit. "These are

Well, when the emigrants came along,
every day there would be one or more

would see my steers standin' out doin'

Hospitality Overcome

ONE of our citizens has very novel
way of dealing with tramps. A few
mornings ago, just - he was making q
fire to prepare breakfast, one OF the fra
ternity appeared, and wanted to break his
fast. In q rough tone he was commanded
to come into the house, TO sit In given
chair, and wait until the meal was ready.
He expressed preference V take some
thing in his hand, and eat 1t - he
tramped; but he was told that he must
come in and eat with the family. When
the meal was ready he was given seat ct
the table. his plate was filed with enough
tomake q meal for three hearty men, ana
his host, in language mot ct all polite, put
decidedly profane, told the tramp that ne
couldn't leave the table until his plate was
cleared; that if he didn't eat every NOUN.
full set before him no would Kali MIN!
Naturally enough fears that the iood ~
poisoned took hold of the tramp, ana ne
beered to be excused but the savage man
ner If his host and the awful threat pre-.
vailed. and after great efforts tho last
mouthful disappeared. Whenhe reached
The door he gave . sudden jump Of ten
feet. evidently fearing that his speed
would be accelerated BY pair Of brogans,
Int when he was out of danger he
turned to his host and assured him that
he didn't think he should want TO take
