A Curious Client.

A Brooklyn newspaper man received

Smith, notifying him that claim against
him for several dollars had been placed
IN their hands for collection, and in
structing him that he could save him
self some trouble if he'd come around
and talk the matter over. The Journal
ist was perfectly prepared to converse
on the subject, but disinclined to pay,
so he dropped in on Smith, Jones &
Smith, and notified them that he had
some business for them.
"There's man in this town threatens
to sue me, said he, "and Tn prepared
to spend any amount to beat him. Can

observed the client. "Can I bother
him, whether I owe him or not?"

Smith, Jones & Smith. It'll take him
twenty years, if we work the case"

ment we would appeal. Yes, sir, he'd

He Knew the Author.

Poor old Burwitt He was very Opin-
donated, and could be quite severe when
his expressed opinions were doubted ;
yet was he very sensitive man, and it
hurt him sorely to find himself in error
One day the minister, at social confer
ence of the parish, read beautiful
hymn. So exquisite did he consider it
that he remarked upon it to mis- flock,
and expressed much regret that the
author should be unknown.
cit is really strange" said he, "that
hymn SO beautiful in every respect
fit to be classed with the most brilliant
poetic gems-should have come to us
without the name of the author
"Parson Kimberly, what do you
mean ?" demanded Deacon Burwitt,
starting to his feet, with his hymn book
in his hand. eff you mean to say, sir,
as how't you don't know the name of the
man that writ that beautiful hymn, /
can tell you, sir. Why, I've know'd
that hymn, and have know'd who writ
it, too. for years"
My dear Deacon returned the min
lister, mildly. 81 think you must be
mistaken"
"No, sir !" asserted the deacon, vigor-
ously. 'Here it is, SIR
At this point the deacon's son, at home
on a visit from a distant academy,
pulled his father by the coat-skirts and
tried to stop him but it was too late.
The good man had been told that he
must be mistaken. He could not rest
until he had crushed out that base
insinuation.
81 say, sir, here it is. That hymn
was writ by Mr.. Anon!'
Poor old Burwitt He knew in a
moment that he had put his foot into it
somehow-that, in some manner, to him
incomprehensible, he had exposed his
ignorance. That was dreadful He
thought so, because the minister hid his
face behind his handkerchief, while his
whole frame shook with suppressed
laughter and full one-half of the assem-
bled people, as he glanced around, were
quaking with laughter not suppressed.
He sat down with groan, and held his
peace during the remainder of the ses-
sion. AS soon as he had gained the
open air, on his way homeward, he
caught his son by the arm:
"Bob, what was they laughing at %

one way to have good servants is,
to be worthy of being well served. All
nature and all humanity will serve a
good master and rebel against an ignoble

quality of nation than the quality of its
servants, for they are their masters
shadows, and distort their faults in a
fattened mimicry. A wise nation will
have philosophers in its servants hall, a

LoNDoN,July 22-Capt C. W. Terwillerger,
of the Hillsdale rowing crew, writes the
Sportsman saying he understood that the ap-
parent inaction of the Hillsdales in regard to
their treatment by the rowing association, is
creating upfavorable criticisms, and asks
friends of the crew to withhold definite opin-
ions until the matter is finally settled The
letter concludes as follows: ''Surely the anna
teur rowing association are not unmanly
enough TO wish TO discourage or demoroliZe
the Hillsdale crew, so that when they do
row against an opposing crew they will not be
at their best !"
The Sportsman editoriaily says: although
the Hillsdales have been prosecuted and op-
pressed their conduct is most for
bearing and patient. They have
with rare self denial abstained from recrimlna-
ton. The action of the amateur rowing as
ISOLATION is unmanly; not that usual with En-
glishman, and utterly opposed to all nations,
and will bring disgrace upon us as a sport
loving nation, and the shame is all the
greater as the Americans are bound to US by
so many ties OF friendship. The amateur row.
ing association claim TO represent the anna
teurs of Engiand We unhesitatingly say
they do not, nor do they r. feet the aspirations
and desires Of the amateur oarsmen. 1t is
really time that he remorseless opposition
to the Hillsdales was crushed. The American
press have some justification in accusing US
of cowardce and fear of competition"

mind, who is always threatening to COM
NIT suicide, when things do not suit
him, but who has never succeeded in
doing so. He became depressed few

to drown himself with suicidal intent
Take off those boots first, said his

Holman shut the trap-door with such
violence that neighbors quarter of a
