THE position of General Hancock
in the midst of all this scrlmmage be-
tween the mourners is very much like
that of the ''eight-day clock IN one
Of the Hon. Chauncey Depew stores.
At funeral in country village, as
Mr.. Depew relates, the mourners were e,
congregated in the small "best room,
which was quite dark, when one OF
the neighbors, talkative little old
woman, came sliding in and sat be
side the widow. Her eyes soon get
ting accustomed to the dimness, she
espied what she thought was a a, new
article of furniture MY sakes! said
she: "where'd yet get that eight-day
clock?" 1--WE hain't got no eight-day
clock" said the widow. why, ye;;
you have, too; there It's in the corner.
s'That amt no eight-day clock" grun
ted the widow; "that's Joe; we stoot
him up in the corner to make room
for the mourners." This is Hancock
funeral, but they seem to have "stoo'
him up in the corner to make room
for the mourners. > N. 7. Tribune
