AN AMBIDEXTER REPORTER.

There is q reporter on q Kansas City paper
| who writes rapidly with both hands He is
an ambidexter and bold, bad one at that.
| When there is q rush at the Office and the
devil is shouting "coppee" like tiend in
carnate this useful reporter sits down at the
desk in full company front, and with pen
Gil in each hand slings off local happenings
by the yard. He writes ON two sheets at
once and don't let his right hand know what
his left hand is driving at, but sits driving
all the same. Recently he got little off
his mental base and attempted to write up a
dog fight and a wedding in high life at the
same time. He got things mixed His hands
ran away with the matter in his skull, and
things became terrible confused. This is the
way his items telescoped each other AT
Grace church, last night, the nuptials of Mr.
Thomas johnson and Miss Julia Lawrence
were celebrated in most magnificent style; a
costly floral horseshoe being directly over the
altar, and when the yellow cur saw the flames
of anger darting from the eyes Of the brindlc
fyste, he opened with the strains of the we'd
ding march. AS the handsome couple walked
down the aisle the excited crowd began to
get frantic, and there were yells of Sick 'em
Bull > AT him, now, Towser,' as the specta-
tors became interested in the fight The
bride, who was elegantly attired in pure
white garments of the most costly fabric and
wore the traditional white veil and wreath Of
orange blossoms, had him by the neck, and
his tongue began to loll out and his eyes to
turn sOmmersets as in the customary black
dress suit, white gloves, ears cropped close to
his head. He is Of good family and is en-
gagged in one of the most extensive manufac-
turing establishments in the West But the
yellow cur seemed to be getting the death
grip on the throat Of the big brindle and
when he tenderly kissed the bride according
to the ancient custom, his back was covered
with mud and his off hind leg was terribly
chewed up. Among the costly presents re-
ceived by the happy pair We're q fine grand
niano from tho father of the bride, the hair
had been scalded from his back, and one eye
seemed to have been struck by an augur
After q short bridal tour the happy couple
will settle down to one of the hardest fought
battles the reporter ever saw, and it was diff
fcult to tell which dog had been punished
worse The fight ended at exactly 4:4S, after
having been bitterly contested at the resi-
dence of the brides parents, and he was taken
to his owners house in wheelbarrow He
will probably never recover, and if he does
he will be totally blind, besides being
permanently lame in the left hind leg,
the beautiful bride receiving the con-
gratulatiOns of & host of warm friends.
The groom Is one of our most promising
young men, and his owner breads the possi-
bility of lOosing him, as he fears he can
never replace him. The father of the bride
Is one of our wealthiest merchants and the
yellow fyste limped off with knowing look
in his eyes and a saucy curl in his tail, as
much as to say, "Who else wants to try me?"

Fortunes of Mrs. Abraham Lincoln.

On board the ship which brought Sara
Bcmhardt to New York there came lady
whose life has been as eventful as that of the
French actress, and crowded with far more
true romance. The tragedy which Sara acts
III mimic show, Mrs Lincoln has seen and
felt in reality. From All obscure position as
the wife of a lawyer in country town, she
was suddenly transferred to the capital of
the country and made the first lady in the
land. She was for years the center of count
less intrigues. Adventures, contractors.
politicians, even officers Of the army, sought
her influence and paid assiduOus court to her.
AdulatiOn and the sense of power were not
unpleasant to her; the quiet country matron
became almost queen, and the dingy and
dOleful rooms of the White House were made
the saloons of palace. At the height OF
this splendid career the bullet cf an assassin
cut it short, and Mrs. Lincoln found herself
suddenly deprived of the holors and distinc-
tiOns lavished upon her. She went abroad !;
remained some years; returned to her old
home; was accused of being insane, and was
confined for some months in lunatic asy-
lum; was released and again went to Europe
from whence she now once more returns
Could Saras fictitious romances on the stage
equal in real pathos and tragedy the history
of which this is only the barest outline?

they unquestionably did in the election Just
past to elect their own representative. Per-
haps it will occur to "stalwart" Admins
tratiOn that there is no code of political NOR
ais that demands this particular form of par
tisan suicide. IfsO we may hope to make
Montana Republican Territory, and in the
saccharine future, SO to speak, q Republican
State.
In the meantime Col. Sanders can console
himself with the reflection that the slanders
which some were found to utter against him
were answered by putting him at the head
of ]. .s ticket and giving him majority of
nearly 200 at Helena, where both of the cam
didates reside, and in like manner at Vir-
ginia City, where he formerly resided.

Pacific railroad across the line into Montana
took place November 10th. There was an

spokesman for the Territory.
OF course the arrival OF this continental
railway in our borders is q great event, but
it must be admitted that the temperature of
the welcome it received is abated by the re-
port that the controlling officers of the cor

Interior decoration as n Science,

The one unfortunate thing i'm has1se decor
alton nowadays, in the opinion Mr.. II. ".
Eds is the everlasting seeking after some
novelty in papers, curtains, OF other hangings,
Everybody wants to have q ro0m different
from their neighbor. Decoration is being done
as fashion, not from any read love for it.
Of course, we should not like to see room
after room repeating itself in decoration, but
why few really good papers should not be
the groundwork of true artistic decoration
when the narrowness of worldly circum-
stances prevents the more elaborate and
more expensive hand decoration in paint or
distemper-aaad let the rest follow from the
design, there Is no good season. If that
suggestion should be adopted there might be
hope for real art decoration instead of the
cold formality and everlasting interchange
of two or three eolors. As critical writer
on art decoration has said: IF the papers on
our walls and the curtains We hang in our
rooms were, even at second hand, but the
record of the fresh impressions and the grace
full tancies of artists of our own day instead
of being ineumbered with mechanical pattern
work struggling to be artistic, it would be
better than all the present miserable striving
after novelty Not TO have what your
neighbor possesses is the bane of decorative

A RELIC OF THE WAR.
The Button that was Shot from General
HancOck's Goat at thd Battle Of
Gettysburg.

The other day well-dressed-but this is
not fashion article; what's the use of de-
scribing mans dress? Anyway the man
entered store, and taking q brass button
| from his pocket he handed it to by standeI
and remarked:
Rather valuable relic. This button was
shot from General Hancocks coat at the bat
tie of Gettysburg. My father was on Han
cocks staff, and he picked up the button
when it fell from Haneock's coat"
II should think it was valuable" said the
man, examining it. From Hancock's coat
Well, l declare! Whatn you take for it?
Excuse me, shouldn't have asked such a
silly question"
NO offense, sir. | wouldn't sell the relic,
of course, as it is bound to me by more than
one tie. My father is dead,' and the man
looked away while the other party made a
foreign remark to the boy that stood by the
counter lazily turning over some music that
lay on the counter.
"No, l would not sell it; but as | am in
poor circumstances am going to the pawn
shop to pawn it,"
"DOn't do that Let me take it," said the
other.
We'll, loan me So"
The money was handed over, and after the
relic man had taken down the address Of the
capitalist he walked out.
About five minutes afterwards the clerk in
q neighboring drug store entered and said:
'See here, fellers, reckon I've got the boss
relc-a button shot from General Hancock s
coat at the battle of Gettysburg" He then
unwrapped lot Of old paper from around a
brass button.

who had similar curiosity

while the noise of brass buttons rolling ON
the floor was heard.

victim. why, bust my buttons, somebody
must have drawn on Hancock with q double

The party went out, and the only informa-
tion learned Of him was that he had cut the
buttons off an old army coat and started for
the next town.

ArtemuS Ward.

Mr.. Toole, who was one of Artemus Wards
most intimate friends in London, says that
ne told him the following story: He went
TO lecture at a remote place, where his face
was not known. He was little late; the
audience became impatient. and began to
stamp with their feet and whistle. By and
by Ward came out and began to move about
the platform, dusting the chairs and desk.
The people took him for a ''supe," and be-
came still more impatient. Presently he
turned around dropped the dust cloth, and
said: Nov, having busted the chairs, will
begin my lecture" Many of the jokes he
made were not so good as this, but, no doubt,
served to amuse himself and others. An ac-
quainttnce told me that he was once riding
IN Broadway omnibus when Browne got in
and, on being asked for his fare, inquired Of
the driver if he could change SIS. The driver
sad he could not, stopped the coach and re-
queSted Ward to get out Upon this Ward
became very indignant Why should he get
out? Because he had not the proper fare.

Morocco a Paradise for Jews.

According to law the Jews cannot possess
land or houses, nor cultivate the ground out
side of their milha (ghetto). Nor are they
permitted to accept lots and houses as mort
cages. They are not allowed to ride horses
and may only employ mules or donkeys fol
this purpose. They are not permitted to lay
hand on a Mussulman, even in self defense
except in their own dwellings. They can
not bear witness in court, and may not speak

bent position.
In the markets or at the booths Jew
may not outbid Mohamnedan in pur-
chase of victuals They are forbidden to
read and write Arabic They may not,
while on journey, approach spring at
which Mussulmen are standing nor are they
permitted to sit down directly opposite a
Mohammedan, but must do this in an
Oblique position. On an encounter in the
street they must always turn to the left, and
ON a journey must, if mounted ON donkey,
descend therefrOm at considerable distance

They are not permitted to wear red fez, but
must don black one; likewise black slip
pers instead of yellow or red ones The
Bournoas they must wear in such manner
