At the Park Theater some time ago there was
a smoky smell blown in at the front of the house
over an. audience. In an instant the people
We're transformed into idiots, mild and inno-
cent-like creature sat in front of me-a woman
in case of alarm for man to carry out like a

Behold the smoke was smelipd, the people rose;
We We're all sitting near the 22nd
street entrance all that we need to do to save
our precious lives. let aloneiour good clothes,
was to walk quietly out in the rear-the smoke
came from the front-and to the front rushed
the frightened fools. This one little woman
rose; she dashed at me and carried away piece
of my ear and all the cuticle off one side of my
neck: a bald-headed fat man went down before
her like he was struck by 2 cannon-ball; she
kept on her mad career. she walked up the
backs of people; she spread dismay, like a mus
plaster, over the shoulders Of that crowd.
And when the excitement was over, and people
went back to their places that small timid wO-
man declared she Thought she should have
dropped; that she had never been SO crushed:
that folks acted like brutes," &c.-when she
could have filed ward in hospital with her

He looked at me until my eyes droop before

Pau Mall Gazette, is the production at the Chat

Josh Billings Experience.

Yes, L have finally cum to the conclu-
sion that lager beer is a harmless tenn
perance beverage, and at least is not in
toxicating. In proof of this have been
told by German who said he drunk it
all mite long, just to try the experiment,
and was after all obliged to go to bed en-
tirely sober in the morning. have
seen this same man drink eighteen or
twenty glasses, and if he was drunk it
was in German, and nobody could un-
derstand it.
1t is proper enuff to state that this
man kept lager beer saloon, and so he
could have no object in stating what
was not strictly true. 1 believe him to
the full extent of my ability.
never drank but three glasses of lag
er in my life, and that made my head
ontwist as tho it was hung on the end of
a string, but L was told it was owing to
my bile being out of place and L guess
that it was so, for L never billed over wus
than did when got home that mite.
My wife thot was goin to die, and L
was afraid / shouldn't, for it seemed as
tho everything had eaten in my life
was coming to the surface; and if my
wife hadn't pulled off my boots just as
she did, L believe that they would have
cum laundering up too. That wus IA
years ago.
o, how sick I wus can taste it
now.
never had so much experience in so
short time in all my life.
If any man shud tell me that lager
beer was not intoxicating, 1 might be-
lieve him; but if he should tell me that
my stummck was not out of order, L
should ask him to state over few
words just how a man felt and acted
when it was.
wasn't drunk that mite, but I had
some ov the most natural sintums thata
man ever had and kept sober.
In the first place it was about so rods
from where l drank the beer to mi
house, and was over two hours on the
road home, and a hole busted through
each one of my pantaloon neez, and
uluh nav Oh ahy uAt, anu IIleu W open
the door by the bell pull and hiccupped
awfully and saw everthin' in the room
trying to get round on the backside OF
me, and, sitting down on a chair / did
not wait long enough for it to get exact
ly under me, when it wuz going round,
and l set down a leetle too soon and so
missed the chair about twelve inches,
and couldn't get up soon enough to take
the next one that came along. My wife
sed wuz as drunk as beast awl that
mite, aud, az 1 sed before, began to spin
up things freely till finally got on one
of the beds as it came round and slept it
off. If lager beer is not intoxicating it
used me almighty mean, that 1 know.
Still hardly think that lager beer IL in
toxicating, for hav been told so; andI
am probably the only man living who
ever drank eny when his liver was not
plumb.
don't want to say anything against
a harmless temperance beverage, but il
ever drink eny more, it will be with
mi hands tied behind and mi mouth
pried open.
