The Butcher Doy aud tho Rakar's Girl

The Butcher Doy aud tho Rakar's Girl
1t was down in the yeast part of the
city. He was burly butcher boy-she
was the pie-ous daughter OF German
baker next door, with eyes like currants
and her yellow hair twisted on the back
of her head like huge cruller. They
leaned oward each other over the back
bone of the separating railing. He was
casting sleeps eyes at her, while hers
turned to him with provocating roll.
"Meat me tonight beef-fore quarter
to ten," he said.
sob, doughnut ask it, said she.
~ make no bones about it, said he.
"You're not we'll. bread" said she.
"Only sweet bread" said he.
"Dont egg me on" said she.
81 never sausage girl. Don't keep
me on tender.hooks |" said he, quite
chopfallen.
"Why don't you wear the dear flour
I gave you =? asked she.
"Pork -quoi?" asked he.
"Oh, knead say ?" asked she.
"That don't suet me, p" said he.
"You're crusty. l only wanted to
cracker Joke" said she.
"You gave me cut - the cold
shoulder" said he.
"Ah, you don't loaf me !" sighed she.
"Veal see. 1 cleave to you and no
mis-steak-if you have money" said he.
"I can make abundance, said she.
"Then no more lamb -entations, said
he. You shall be my rib -
"Well done T. said she.
And their arms embraced like
pretzel. So his cake was not all dough; ;
she likes a man of his kidney; and be-
ing good livers, they will no doubt live
on the fat of the land. This world is q
queer jumble, bnt love seems "bread
in the bone"

A Strange Beauest.

Mr.. John r. Reed is the gas man and
captain of the supernumeraries at the
Walnut street theater in Philadelphia,
where he has served for fifty-four years
without being absent from one perform
ance. He has made will in which is
this provision "My head shall be
severed from my body, and my body
shall be placed in a vault, but the head
shall be brought to the Walnut street
theater, there to be used as the skull in
Hamlet and I do bequeath my head
to the said Walnut street theater for that
purpose" When asked his reason for
making such bequest, he said: "Well,
l love the theater, and when the bad
Hamlets come round I'll prompt them
on the grave scene. But, seriously, /
want my head to stay on this stage,
where it has, with my hands. done ser,
vice for over half century"

California's Latest Marvel.

The Tuolumne (Cal.) Independent
says: "a. Gardner has discovered a
mammoth cave in the dividing ridge
between the south branch and main
Stanislaus rivers, two miles above the
junction and one mile northerly from
Pine Log, at an elevation of about 300
feet above the river. The discovery was
made under the following very peculiar
circumstances, in which an insignificant
squirrel figures very conspicuously: On
he was engaged in working his placer
claim, which is distant 800 feet from the
entrance of the cave. A squirrel perched
itself upon q tree near by, and COM
menced to chatter and spit acorn shucks
at him. This he considered challenge
to fight it out on that line. So he re-
paired to his cabin, armed himself with
a double-barreled shotgun, marched out
and faced his diminutive antagonist.
The fight opened with spirited skir-
mish of both parties, and ended after
Gardner had fred seven rounds at his
quirrelship-the seventh just as his
little tormentor was disappearing in the
dark reCesses of a crevice in the ledge
above his claim. He pursued it to its
retreat, and then commenced searching
in the crevice to discover, If possible,
the hiding. place Of his vanquished foe,
but failed. The search, however, re-
suited in the discovery of the greatest
natural wonder in the county, and per-
hays in the State, as future develope
ments in that direction may prove, in it's
class. So closes the history Of its dis
covery. It is adorned with decorations
of dazzling beauty, unsurpassed in char.
acter on the Pacific slope. The entranc-
to the cave is situated at the base of
bluff, and eighty feet above the gulch,
and access is had through crevice in
the ledge, three feet in width by six feet
in length. Descending by ladder ten
feet, you reach the floor of an inclined
archway, dipping at an angle of thirty
five degrees, from twenty to thirty feet
in height by thirty feet in width. De-
scending the incline, which is 100 feet
in length, we reach the floor of the
grand archway, from forty to sixty feet
in height, varying in width from twenty
to thirty feet, from which radiate scores
of similar archways, leading TO spacious
chambers, with their lofty ceilings
draped with brilliant stalactites, that
glitter and sparkle in the light Of lamp
like gems of ocean waves of which we
read. The floors and walls of this SUBJ
terraneous hall are entirely coated with
stalagmites, pure cry stalzation. We
can best describe this crystal formation
in this wise: For instance, it resembles
in makeup and appears to the vision
like sheet of snow lying loosely in
large fakes on a pane of glass. We
visited, under guidance of the discov-
erer, many large chambers, of which the
grandeur and brilliancy battle descrip-
tion. Our rambles through the subter-
raneous archways continued for four
hours"

That's My Boy !

hbhe . WY IVY
Big blue eyes with roguish twinklei
Dimples ever running riot;
Busy tongue that's never quiet;
Forehead fair, with ne'er wrinkle;
Clust'ring hair Of sunny hue;
Nose little snub, it's true
That's my boy
Fun and mischief never stopping;
Teasing now for "pants and boots,
And truly gun that Shoots"
Kisses on my cheek fast dropping
Then sway with shout and hop
Till cry: "Oh mercy, stopl"
Thas's my boy
Never ending, still beginning;
Pockets full Of dirt and crumbs;
Crazy over horns and drums
Noise in all things ever winning;
Dragging he of "Jim " is master,
While run for white court-plsster--
That's my boy
Do you hear fearful noise2
Do you scent burning SMELL
Do you hear curdling yell
Loud enough for twenty boys7
Do you hear while at your pray ers,
Some one tumbling down the stairs
That's my boy!
SO it goes -some pain. some pleasure.
Wonder l. twixt tear and smile,
Will 1t be thus all the while
Joysand grief in equal measure?
Shall I cry, in bitter sorrow,
In some dread, far-off tomorrow,
That's my boy2
Ah, no, no! Mothers eyes look far ahead,
And mine see, with tender pride,
By sray-haired woman's side
One whom, now that years have sped,
Brave, yet gentle, is her stay;
One Of whom she'll proudly say,
That's my boy!

RED out on q cash basis.
Mrs. Mary Holbrook, who died in
Massachusetts, few days ago, aged
ninety-three years, was a remarkable
woman. When seventy-fve years old
she tegan the manufacture of tides,
which found ready sale in Boston, aud
were 30 much sought for that she was
obliged to employ several old ladies to
do the coarser work, while she filled in
the finer parts with her own hands. In
this way, up to her ninetieth year, she
netted So, 900 from her sales.
The City of Mexico is lazy place, &C.
cording to Chicago Times correspond
ent, who accompanied the visiting
committee from the United States.
"The hotels are languid, he says; $50
are the restaurants, the theaters, the
public offices and the barber shops.
The business houses have an air of per-
petual waiting upon Providence. The
clerks act like weary anglers looking
patiently for 'rise.' A generation of
American enterprise might revolution
ize all this and rouse the metropolis
from her trance"
Chief Joseph, of the Nez Perces In
dians, when in Washington, was asked
what, of all the works of civilization
seen in his first trip to the East, had
impressed him the most. It was ex-
pected that he would name the capitol,
but he replied, without moments hes
itation, that the most wonderful thing
he had ever seen or dreamed of was the
bridge over the Mississippi river at St.
Louis. He could build mountain of
stone like the capitol, he said, but he
could not build spiders web that
would stand alone in the air. He was
afraid to cross it; but he saw that the
pale faces were not afraid, 80 he wrapped
his blanket around him and trembled as
the train went over.
This story is told in Rome letter to
a French journal One morning Leo
as is his wont every morning, and re-
quested Commander Sterbini, the gen.
tleman serving him, to bring some salt
to take with them. Sterbini, present
ing the salt cellar on solid silver tray,
accidentally let it slip from his
hands, and the salt fell-but only on the
table. The pope rose Immediately,
carefully looking to see whether any of
The grains had reached the ground.
Only see, he said, "the salt is upset,
and had it fallen on the ground 1 be-
lieve should not have got over to- day."
He then took out a pocketbook and
noted the fact, observing at the same
time that "we shall see whether we
shall not have the loss of some beloved
cardinal to deplore before long" Nine
days after, the cad news of Cardinal
Asquini's death reached the vatican.
and the pope, handing to Sterbini his
pocketbook, requested him to read
aloud to those around the note he had
made nine days before. Then breaking
the silence, he said, "Had the salt
been scattered on the floor instead of
upon the table, as was the case, verify
I believe should be standing now be-
fore the judgment seat!'

and going into the kitchen soon after
found him energetically washing it with

A lawyer, badgering a witness, said
sternly: Isl believe, sir, you have served
a sentence in the State prison ?" " Yes"
was the unconcerned reply, 81 was in

tune tooccupy the cell your brother had
had."
