A very high toned looking young man in
exquisite mustache, loud plaid clothes, red
necktie, low-crowned hat, straw colored
kids and knitting needle cane, walked into q
tobacco shop on Park Row yesterday, and
throwing down half dollar on the counter,
said:
.'Mr. shopkeeper, can you sell q gentleman
a decent cigar"
"Yes, sir" said the cigar man meekly.
"Well, then, fly around lively and do 1t.
Don't you see that half dollar?"
eyes, sir. What kind Of cigar do you
wish, air."
"What kind?"
"Yes, SIR"
"Why, look at me, sir, q moment, and see
for yourself what kind of cigar would suit
me-" and he drew himself up grandly and
gazed down on the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper looked and then took In
the half dollar, got out cigar, handed 1t to
the man with forty-nine cents change, and
said: 81 owe you half cent, SIR, but can't
make the change unless you take another
cigar"
The nice man looked at the shopkeeper and
then at the cigar, and then at himself, and
without single word walked out OF the
shop.-Neu York Mercury.

EDITOR DEMoCRAT:-The closing
exercises of Beever Dam Academy
took place last Friday evening"
The drawing powers of this new
school proved to be very great, as
many Of our best citizens were In
attendance; and hundreds of color.
ed people from this and adjoining
counties were present. For more
than an hour before the exercises
began every seat was filed and
standing room was above par. The
house was beautifully decorated
and well lighted. Just over the
stage in large letters was the sen.
tence "In God we .Trust.m The ex.
ercises were opened by singing
Praise Ye the Lord, and prayer by
Rev. B. Bramlett. The song Hail
King ofGlory was then sung by the
school in excellent style. The
principal DR.. R.. F. Boyd, after ask
ing the large audience to keep as
quiet as possible, as the first part of
the exercises would be performed
by children of youthful minds and
feeble tongues, began to call from
the programme the names OF those
on duty. The programme though
long, showed good TASTE IN its ar
rangemcnt, and every feature oft
was listened TO with The closest at.
tention by all present. The schol-
ars acquitted themselves well and
far excelled the most sanguine ex.
p~ectation of the friends of the
school. Many of the speeches, es.
says, and dialogues would have
done honor TO our older schools. =
The programme was carried out to
perfection, was the expression Of
all who attended. Hon. 2. NJ. Ste-

Of the Peace In one Of the new counties
in Michigan had . case before him
wherein the defendant was charged with
stealing . sheep. All the evidence went
70 support the charge, and when the
case was given 70 the Jury everybody
knew what the verdict would Be. After
few minutes elaboration that body
announced . verdict Of guilty" and
his Honor was about 70 pass sentence
when he suddenly threw aside bis dig
nifty and exclaimed:
Great hockey! but this Il all irrcg-
ular! didn't charge the jury before
they went outr'
"That's 80. your Honor" replied the
defendants lawyer. ~ was going 70
appeal the case on those very grounds"
"Well, you don't get no appeal on
this court. Gentleman Of the jury
listen to the charge"
After delivering his charge he sent tho
Jury out again 10 find verdict. and IS
