Herr Bandmann, tragelfan of moro or less
renown, when recently in the city, made an en-
gagcment with Mr.. Hoechster, the manager Of
the German company now playing every Sunday
evening ut McVicker's, to appear tonight In the
r8le OF Hamlet, a part in which he is cqualed
according to himself} by no one, except possibly
Edwin Booth or Henry Irving. Tho simple
hIr. Hoechster made the contract with
the upright Randmann, and In due time
had his bills on all the fences and
the dead walls announcing to the horror stricken
citizens the reappear1nce OF the distinguished
German. Simple minded bfr. Hoechcster sold
his tickets las many as he could, and confidently
looked forward to meeting his tragic fellow
countryman, this morning. The bond WAS all
right Dandmann was to share after certa1n
sum had been reached. Tho little German man
agcr, however, miscalculatcd his man, for
yesterday morning he was astonished to re-
ceiye telegram from the vrtuouB Band
mann saying TINT, unless he WAS guar
anteed $3.50 for the nights performance, he
would not come on. Hoechster evidently didn't
think his Haxslct worth $50 cents, for even in his
extremity he wouldn't accede to the demand, but
sent buck word that unless he {the upright Band
MANN fulfilled his contract he the hoodwinked
Mr.. Hoechster} would sue him. Thereupon Herr
Bandmann sent back word that he had scrntched
his leg. or broken his toenail, OF was troubled
with the toothache, or something Of that sort,
and that he couldn't play. Whether Mr. Hoech-
stcr will yet him here by this evening is exceed
ingly doubtful. When the little manager was
last seen he was In q condition Of despair.

TWO DREAMS.

By H. II.
Weary the king took of his crown;
In either hand he poised its weight;
ITS strange how heavy it has grown
He said, and with impatient frown
He eyed it in kind of hate;
Then on his bed he laid him down.
And slept, and in twinkling dreamed.
Oh! dream of ectasy and bliss!
Delight through all his senses streamed;
ragged yagabond he seemed;
Free winds of heaven his hair did kiss;
On his bare skin the free sun bcamed.
At morn he walked, bewildered, first,
Or who he was or where might be;
Then saw the crown, and with burst
Of sudden rage he swore and cursed;
mo beggar would change lives with me
\. Il ard fates, kings is worst!'
Outside the palace, on the ground,
Starved half to death and freezing cold,
Less sheltered than the meanest hound,
A beggar slumbered, safe and sound,
And dreams to him came swift and bold
AS if palace walled him round.
He dreamed he was king indeed;
Oh! dream of ectasy and bliss:
Offood, he had his utmost greed:
OF gold beyond his utmost need;
All men knelt low his hands to kiss
And gave his word obed:ent heed
At morn he walked, bewildered first
Or who he was or where might be;
Then quick by hunger and by thirst
He knew himself and groaned and cursed
mo creature pity takes on me!
A beggar's fate OF all is worstm

One Way to Begin a Friendship

Once upon time all .Algiers was
laughing over an article printed in 10.
cal paper edited by Arthur de Fonveille,
in which General Yusuf had been anus
ingly caricatured as 'Monsieur Jou-iou.'
The late Clement Duvcrnois was the au-
thor, but the editor vowed his response
bility for it. Early next morning there
was ring at the journalists door, and
the General showed his Arab face on the
threshold, followed by an Aid-de- camp.
De Fonvielle was still in bed. .
"You are NJ. De Fonvlelle? you called
me Monsieur Jou, jou;' we must fight"

"Ah, then allow me to get up and dress

"Thls room will do"
agreed, and if your Aid will act as
second to both of u.s.
Yusuf drew his sword and motioned
to his companion to do the same; then
offered the two weapons to De Fonveille

ist, selecting the officers sword, and the
two men faced each other. Yusuf had

sleeves, showing his brown corded atm

how his adversary, being in love with
the daughter of the Beg of Tunnis, had
poniarded in her chamber the slave that
had threatened to inform Kasoubah's
father, and cutting out the black tongue,
cast it at her feet, saying: "He will tell
nothing!" Yusuf fought like a savage,
with tiger.springs, cleaning eyes start
ing from their sockets, and cries like a
jackall at every motion. At last, get
ting an opening, he made Tremendous
lunge, missing De Fonvielle's heart, but
running him through the arm.
Yusuf dropped the point of his sabre.

Next morning and regularly thereafter
every morning, the General would put in
an appearance at the wounded mans bed

Acknowledged the Corn.

The phrase, Acknowledged the
corn," is variously accounted for, but
the following is true history of its
origin: In 1928 Andrew Stewart, mem
Der of Congress, said in a speech that
Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana sent their
hay stacks, corn fields, and fodder to
New York and Philadelphia for sale.
WickGfe, of Kentucky, called him to
order, declaring those States did not
send their hay stacks or corn fields to
New York for sale. "Well, what do
you send?", asked Stewart. "Why,
horses, mules, cattle and hogs" well,
what makes your horses, mules, cattle
and hogs? You feed 800 worth of
hay to a horse. You just animate and
get on top Of your haystack and ride
off to market. How is, it with your
cattle? You make one of them carry $50
worth of hay and grass to the Eastern
market. How much corn does it take
at 50 cents q bushel to fatten hog?"
@Why, thirty. bushels ''Then you
put that thirty bushels in the shape of
q hog and make it walk off to the East
ern market" Then Mr.. Wicklife
jumped up and said: "Mr. Speaker, J
acknowledges fhn corn - ''.'

Colonel Vllliers found the Prince I'm

Klass, the agent, was brought up in

K!ass went to the neighborhood of the

he discovered by careful inquiry, that
Xabango, the man who slew him, had
been killed at Ulundi. He was of

Xabango, VITO bad the uniform of the
Prince, but by various means succeeded
in finding the different parts of the uni

patrol jacket, riding brooches, leather
wa1stcoat, shirt, belt, revolver, and am
munition pouch with twenty-one rounds
in it and small bag with some coins.
All the clothes, except the brooches,
were pierced in front with nu-
merous assegai holes. The revolver is
smashed. It appears he was wounded
first by an assegai thrown from dis
lance OF about ten yards. He emptied
his revolver at his enemies, who closed

Alone in that crowded city,
=, Which shines like an Arctic star,
By the banks of the frozen Neva,
In the realm of the mighty Gear.
Now, Max was an urchin of seven;
But his delicate sister, Leeze,
With the crown of her ripping ringlets,
Could scardely have reached your knees!
AS ne looked on his sister weeping,
AND tortured BY hunger's smart,
A Thought like an Angel entered
r., AT the door of his opened heart.
He wrote on fragment of paper
With qulvering hand and SOUL
"Please send to me, Christ! three copecks,
h.. 1opu1ctase for Leeze a rolI!"
Then, rushed to church, his missiye
10 drop.-cre the vesper psalms,-
AS the surest mail bound Christward.-
In the unlocked Box for Aims!
While he stood upon tiptoe to reach it,
One passed from the priestly band,
And with smile like benediction
Took the note from his eager hand.
Having read it, the good mans bosom
Grew warm with holy iOy;
"Ah! Christ may have heard you already
Will you come to my house, my boy?"
"But not without Leeze?" mo, surely,
Wen have rare party of three:
60 tell her that somebody's waiting
10 welcome her home to tea"
That night, in the cosiest cottage,
The orphans were safe at rest,
Each snug as a callow birding
In the depths of its downy nest.
And the next Lords Day in his pulpit,
The preacher SO spoke of these
Stray lambs FROM the fold, which Jesus
Had blessed by the sacred seas;-
So recouuted their guiless story,
AS he held each child by the hand,
That the hardest there could feel it,
And the dullest could understand
Ger the eyes of the listning fathers
Their tloated q gracious mist;
And oh, how the tender mothers
Those desolate darlipgs kissed!
You have given your tears" said the preae1
er,-
"Heart-alms we should none despise;-
But the open palm my children,
Is more than the weeping eyes!"
Then followed swift collection,
From the altar steps to the door,
Till the sum of two thousand rublcB
The vergers had counted DER.
So you see that the unmailed letter
Has somehow gone to his goal,
And more than three copecks gathered
To purchase for leeze roll!
