BUDGET OF FUN.
A Miserable Failure.

A caunt hen.pecked looking man, with Il
sephulchral voice, glided into the Central Sta
ti6n office saws the Free Press, and sat for two
hours Irritating pimplc on his nose, before
he managed to muster sufficient nerve to un-
bosom himself Having screwed himself up
10 the sticking point he stepped softly up to
The Souire and said with marked torcedneSs
".Jedge?"
"Weil, sir" answered the court.
"Ivc come
well"
TO ascertain"
$50 ahead"
How much"
This sounds business-likc thought the court
How much it will cost
"Yes, yes"
"How much it will cost if, in an unguarded
moment, | should be seized with "A spasm and
should smte the women who doubles my trol-
bles, over the brow with the palm of my deN.
ter fin"
'Let me understand" said the court. You
wish to know the penalty Of wic-beatlng Is
that it,"
That's the English of it."
''Well, about thirty days
Thirty days" repeated thchcn.peckcd man
".Jedge, would they let her get within nun
dred yards ofmy prison home If protest.
Certainly not"
His mournful cOuntenanCc boSsOmed with
anticipated joy as he started for the door As
he was passing out he turned boldly to the
Justice and remarked:
"Make her out, Jedge. I'll be here to pay
the penalty in just two hours. Thirty days
How cheap. Oh won't won't | whang
her one! | can't hold a candle to her on the
law movement | haven't even pretended to
wear the trowsers. But my manhood is arous-
ed. I'll simply gyrate in an irregular orbit
about her headplece and then will give my
self up to the law for thirty days with pleasure
If can get one grand glorious sling Of this
No 10 bull skin at her, I'll go down for sixty
days without Il groan."
Two hours after four men carried HIM to the
hospital ON IA shutter, and his wife was arrest
ed for assault and battery.
