vited to dine with the Hon. Lewis
Winfield, to meet the chief baron
and the solicitor general, an invita-
ton the comedian accepted with
alacrity for the good Of his son,
who is a lawyer. On arriving at
Mr.. Winfeld's house he was shown
into dimly-lighted room, where
the legal dignitaries were seated.
They were far from being SO pleased
to make the acquaintance of Mr..
Toole, as the latter had anticipated
they would be, Each said he cared
nothing for play or play-actors, and
indeed had not been in theater for
many years. "Mr. Toole," said the
introducer, sis just now playing in
one of Byron's pieces" ain

suppose?" asked the chief baron
yes, | have read them" Mr..
Toole began to look intensely mis-
erable; to wish he was at the thea.
ter or at home. Suddenly the fold
ing doors were thrown open; several
choice spirits were found at table,
and the legal dignitaries proved to
be Mr.. James and Mr.. Thorne, of
the Vaudeville Theater, got up in
clever diSguises.

A Royal Tailor.

James vi, who seemed to think
that nothing could be right which
his sovereign pleasure did not regu-
late, took particular pains with the
dress of his subjects. After dis
gracing the statute books with
many absurd enactments on the
subject, he at length procured it to
be "statuted that the fashion of
cloths now, Ammo 1921, presently
used, be not changed by man or
woman, and the weavers thereof,
under the pain of the forfeiture of
the cloths and hundred pounds
to be paid by the wearer, and as
much by the weaver Of said cloths"
According to the fashion then in
use, that is, ordained by law, and
thus vainly attempted to be rem
dered perpetual, no person could
wear lawns or cambrics, or cloths
trimmed with gold, or feathers on
their heads, or pearls or precious
stones. To make the arbitrary ma
ture of the law the more felt, it ex-
empted from its operation those
very persons to whom it was most
likely to have salutary applica-
ton. viz: noblemen, prelates, lords
of session, barons Of quality, their
wives, sons and daughters; as also
heralds, trumpeters and minstrels.

A Diver suGocated.
San Francisco CALL

A diver named H. Steele was
suffocated while diving for an an
chor near the ship New York, Sat.
urday afternoon. He went down
shortly after 5 o'clock. After the
lapse Of about FIVE minutes his as
sistant drew him to the surface,
fearing something was wrong, hav-
ing received no signal since his de-
parture below. Upon removing the
helmet Steele was found uncon-
scious, and he expired fifteen min
utes later. The deceased was a ma
tive of England, forty years of age,
and resided at Oakland. He assist
ed in the recovery Of treasure in
the wrecked steamship City of San
Francisco, and raised the schooner
Mabel and Edith in the summer of
1877. The owner Of the apparatus,
A. w. Won Schmidt, has investiga-
ted the case, and finds that the di-
yer neglected to close the end Of
the hose, and consequently the air
was driven out of the dress by the
pressure of the water, which is equal
to fifteen pounds to the square
inch for every thirty-three feet of
descent. The apparatus is for two
divers, and when used by only one
the other end should have the cap
screwed on. AS the depth reached
by Mr.. Steele was eleven fathoms,
there was a pressure of thirty faith
oms on each square inch, which
must have made his dress fit as
close as a glove on the hand. After
reaching q depth of say thirty-three
feet, he received no fresh air, and
he had only the air in the helmet
TO breathe.

How a Madmnn Reeovered.

A famous matchmaker of Paris,
infatuated for a long time with the
chimera of the perpetual motion,
became violently insane from the
overwhelming terror which the
storms of the Revolution excited.
The arrangement of his reason was
marked with a singular trait. He
was persuaded that he had lost his
head on the scaffold, and that it was
put in a heap with those of many
other victims; but that the judges,
by a rather too late retraction OF
their cruel decree, had ordered the
heads to be resumed, and to be re-
joined to their respective bodies.
He, however, conceived that, by a
curious kind of a mistake, he had
the head of one of his companions
placed on his shoulders. He was
admitted into the Bicetro, where he
was continually complaining of his
misfortune, and lamenting the fine
teeth and wholesome breath he had
exchanged for those of very differ
ent qualities. In a little time the
hopes Of discovering the perpetual
motion returned, and he was rather
encouraged than restrainedin his en-
deavors to effect his object. When
he conceived that he had accom-
plished it, and was in all ecstasy of
Joy, the sudden confusion Of a fail
ure removed his inclination even to
resume the subject. He was still,
however, possessed with the idea
that his head was not his own, but
from this notion he was diverted
by repartee made to him when he
happened to be defending the pos
sibility Of the miracle of st. Denis,
who, it is said, was in the habit of
walking with his head between his
hands, and in that position con-
tinually kissing it.
"What a fool you are to believe
such a story" it was replied, with a
burst of laughter. "How could
st. Denis kiss his head? Was it
with his heels?"
This unanswered and unexpected
retort struck aud confounded the
mailman SO much that it prevented
him from saying anything further
on the subject. He again took
himself to business, and entirely re-
gained his intellect.

ton roll. Her hand is wonderfully
pretty for a woman Of her years,
looking as white and dimpled and
pink-tipped as a maiden's. She has
an adopted daughter, who is high
ly accomplished, presiding like a
master at the piano, and being mis-
tress of several foreign tongues.
The report going the rounds Of the
press relative to the extreme depths
of poverty into which the family
were plunged is incorrect. They
have been greatly reduced in their
circumstances, but not to the ex.
tent which necessitated their selling
all their pictures and household ar
ticleS in order to buy bread for their
hungry mouths.

kept her passionate affection so long
in waiting.
The sun was nearly down; but
on the long road at last appears the
figure Of horseman-a single
horseman. Could it be he? and
her heart beat quickly as she adj
yanced toward the gate, watching
anxiously the approaching figure.
Why should he approach so slowly?
Presently look Of pleasant recog-
milton lighted up her face, succeed
ed instantly by a shadow of alarm
and anxiety. 1t was John Matt
land-and alone, riding sIewly,
thoughtfully toward her.
She rushed to him, almost breath
less, with questions: "Where is
Harry, my husband-why ia he not
with you? My God! what means
this2 What is this solemnity-this
hesitation? read something
dreadful in your face?"
He turned to her the full express
sion of that face. He gazed into
her eyes. As if unwilling to speak,
he pointed to the fading sky above
their heads.
I" WhatP' she gasped.
" He is dead"
She fell heavily upon his arm,
without shrek, or vail, or moan.
The unhappy woman had tainted.
Happy for her had it been the un-
consciousness of death, for all the
wealth of life had been robbed
from her in those few words, for
the broken-hearted in this world
live only in the torture of memory.
And so the brief course of one
sun had measured off one human
life-from EXTREMIST happiness to
EXTREMIST misery; and in one short
summer day a heart had broken
forever.
