The Han WHO Interrupts.
TBill Nye,

l do not. as a rule, thirst for the
blood of my fellow man. I am willing
that the law should in all ordinary cases
take its course; but when we begin to dis
cuss, the man who breaks into a conversa-
ton and ruins it with his own irrelevant
ideas, regardless of the feelings of hu-
manity, am not law and order man.
The spirit of the RED Vigilanter'' is
reused in my breast, and hunger for the
blood of that man.
Interrupters are of two classes: I. The
common plug who thinks aloud and whose
conversation wonders with his so-called
mind. He breaks into the saddest and the
sweetest of sentiment, and the choicest
and most fearful of pathos, with the
remorseless ignorance that marks a
stump-tail COW in a dahlia bed. He is the
bull in my china shop, the wormwood in
my wine. and the kerosene in my maple
syrup. I am shy in conversation, and my
unfettered flights of posey and sentiment
are rare, but this man is almost always
near to mar it all with remark, or a.
story or bit of politics, ready to bust my
beautiful dream and make me wish that
mis- name might be carved on marble slab
in some quiet cemetery, far, far away.
Deae reader, did you ever meet this man
Or his wife? Did you ever strike some
beautiful thought and begin to read it off
to your friends, only to be shut off in the
middle of a sentence by this choice and
banner idiot of civilization? If so, come
and sit by me-, and you may pour your
woes into my ear, and 1 in turn will pour
few gallons into your listening ear.
do not care to talk more than my share
of the time, but 1 would be glad to arrive
at conclusion just to see how it would
seem. would be so pleased and so joy
Gus to follow up an anecdote till I had
reached the 'hub," as it were, to chase ar
gument home to your conviction, and to
clinch assertion with authority and ev1-
dence.
The second class of interrDpters is even
worse. It consists of the man-and, I am
panied to state, his wife also-who see the
general drift of your remarks and finish
out your story, your gem of thought or
your argument. It is very seldom that
they do this as you would do it yourself,
but they are kind and thoughtful, and their
services are always at hand. No matter
how busy they may be, they will leave their
own work to fly to your aid. With the
light of sympathy in their eyes they rush
into the conversation, and, partaking
of their own zeal. they take the
words from your mouth and cheer
fully suck the juice out of your joke,
handing back the rind and hoping for re-
ward. That is where they get left so far
as l am concerned. I am almost always
ready to repay rudeness and cold preserv-
ed gall with such acrid sarcasm as 1 may
be able to secure at the moment. No one
will ever know how 1 yearn for the blood
of an interrupter. At night camp on his
trail, and all the day 1 thirst for his warm
life current. In my dreams I am cutting
his scalp loose with case knife, while my
fingers are twined in his clustering hair.
I walk over him and promenade across
his abdomen as I slumber. l hear his
rib crack, and I see his tongue hang over
his shoulder as he smiles deaths mirthful
smile.

Arthur,s Herotc .seII-Socri1fce.
cincinnati Enquirer


'Half a dozen girls and their ambitious
mothers have believed they had fairly
''bagged" Mr.. Arthur, when in fact he never
thought the second time about them. 1
know of some very funny things growing
out of this sort of fancy. I will tell you
one. Last winter there was very pretty
girl here from the principal city of great
western state, and she was presented to the
president. Of course he was polite, as he
always is, and she Immediately thought
she had him. Her knowledge of the
world was extremely superficial, and her
mother has very little sense or knowledge
of the usages of the best society.
She boasted of her daughters CON
quest to her acquaintance, and finally
the story was telegraphed to a western
paper. A friend of the president saw the
dispatch and showed it to him. That
evening there was something gong on at
the White house. Our famboyant child
of the occident was there, clothed in her
radient loveliness and a perfectly fitting
gown from Pingot's, and she was very
pretty. She had intimated to about tWen-
ty friends that she ment to parade her
captive. So, with an air of assurance
born of her coarse4yaDity, she endeaVored
to monopolize him. But, to her utter
amazement, she could not get into the
circle of intimes at ALL. He barely looked
at her. did not ask her to promenade,
and when supper came took down Vir-
ginia cousin of his late wife, who was
neither young nor pretty, and had never
heard of Pingot. The girl went home
crying with modification and rage, and
M. Arthur was never polite to her again.

MANI" I asked.
"No, 1 think not. If he had cared to he
might have married an immense fortune
before this. There is lady in New York,
the widow of man five times a million

the handsomest women in America. She
would be very glad to marry him, know,
and at one time thought he meant some

Webstey,s Fil,oncieriu0.

Daniel Webster's fnanciering is the
subject of many anecdotes at Washington,
and one of them thus describes how he one
day assisted his friend Rufus Choate.
Choate needed $500 and he applied to Mr..
Webster. give hundred dollarsr says
Webster. "No, haven't that amount, but
I will get it for you, Choate.' The latter
was glad to hear 1t and would wait. "Draw
your note," said Webster, ''I'lI sign it and
bring you the money. While you are about
it make the note for thousand; a thou
sand is as easy to get as five hundred" !"
Choate said that five hundred was all he
needed. 'Ill take the other five hundred, ;,
said Webster. The note was drawn and
Mr.. Webster, taking his cane, went into
the avenue. 'Good morning, Mr.. Cor
coran, good morning" said he, as he
entered the great banking house which was
the fiscal agent of the government. 'Good
morning, Mr.. Secretary" said the great
banker in the blandest manner, 'what
is it l can do for you this morning, Mr..
Secretary" Mr.. Webster was secretary
of state at the time. ga little favor for
my friend Choate. He wants a little
money, and I told him thought could
get it for him. A thousand, believe he
made his note for" passing the paper to
the banker. There was no such thing as
hesitating, much less declining, and so the
banker was only happy to accommodate
the head of Mr.. Fillmore's administration.
The gold was laid out in two equal piles at
Mr.. Webster's request. Putting one in
each pocket, and with one of the bows
which only Mr. Webster could give. he
departed. "Here, Choate, here is the five
hundred said the great expounder, enter
ing where Choate was waiting. Handing
him the gold Mr.. Webster resumed his
reading where he had been interrupted by
Choate's entrance. 1t is further stated that
Mr.. Corcoran has in his collection of auto
graphs note for $1,000 signed by Rufus
Choate and indorsed by Daniel Webster.

Augusta (Ga. Chronicle.
Years ago an uncle of Gen. Butler was
senator from South Carolina. He then did
Some favor to the Hon. Simon Cameron
which the latter never failed to remember.
When Gen. NJ. G. Butler presented his
credentials as a senator from South Caro-
lima, the Hon. Simon Cameron notified, it
is said, his son and successor, Donald, that
the time had come for returning the OBJ
legation of a former period. Had Don
Cameron been mere partisan he would
have very likely prevented Gen. Butler from
securing his seat. But the son had as keen
a sense of honor as the father had, and
with courage that was as admirable as
the gratitude was rare, he literally rose
above faction and played the part of
heroic gentleman. From that time
forth Senators Cameron and Butler
have been warm friends, and it is
within tho writer's knowledge that the at
tachment is founded upon something much
more ideal than mere reciprocity of obli-
cation. Senator Cameron admires Sena-
tor Butler, and has on numerous occasions,
found that he was friend to count on.
1t is the custom for senators to pair with
each other indefinitely if necessary. Sen
ator Butler does exactly right in so pairing
with Senator Cameron, just as Senator
Frye paired for many months with Sena-
tor Ben Hill when the senate was much
more closely divided than it may be next
December. No man of sense or honor
will object to Senator Buffers action. We
are satisfied that southern Democrats will
commend him for it. Barring his poll
tics, Senator Cameron is man cordially
liked by Democratic senators and ready to
respond to them in all proper ways. 1t
will, therefore, be seen that Senator Butler
has no reason to be harshIy criticised for
this intimacy, and that he is perfectly
right, in an amicable and parliamentary
sense, in pairing with the Pennsylvania,
just as long as any necessity exists for
such action.

1t seems that Gov. Hubbard and our

specially honored on the occasion of their
recent visit to New Ulm. They were
guests of Col BobIeter, and when received

ceiving the tributes of an admiring popu-

Building Societies Must Pay Taxes OF
Their Loans

Judge Brill rendered a decision yester-
day in the case of H. M. Rice, county
treasurer rs. the st. Paul Mutual Building
society No. 1. The suit was brought to
collect the county tax on $108,s3Oi which
the society had loaned to its stock holders
on May 1, 1881. The company resisted
the payment chiefly on the ground that
as the stockholders were at liberty to draw
out their funds at will they were liable to
have the sum reduced or all exhausted and
that they should not be compelled
to pay tax on such an uncertain
fund. Judge Brill decides against the
building society onthe ground that they
are incorporated for proht and should be
taxed like all corporations conducted for
profit. The Judge regards any serious
withdrawal of funds as too improbable to
enter into consideration. The defense
made the further point that in any event
there should be 500 exempted for each
stockholder. This too is overruled on the
ground that the corporation and not the
Individual stockholder is the owner.
