Waddingiiam's Emancipation Celehra.

From the ST. Louis Republican.
The suit whereby Mr.. VIM. Wad-
the wealthy but eccentric
st. Louisian, seeks to he relieved of
the necessity of supporting a wife
whom he married nearly thirty years
ago, and from whom he separated Il
year after he married her, took rather
a strange turn the other day when
Mr.. Waddingham's counsel produced
one Charles Gavin, who claims TO
have married Mrs. Waddingham in
Detroit ten years before she came to
st. Louis, and WHO claims her still to
be his lawful wife, they having never
been divorced. Nr. Gavin has spent
some time in state institutions. on
account of irregularities in his con-
duct, since lie left the lady, two years
after thei, marriage, and il is
represented that the lady believed
him to be dead when she married a
Mr.. Dunham-from whom she was
afterwards diyorced-and when she
later married Mr.. Waddingham. Mr..
W. is naturally very much elated
over The prospect of being relieved
from paying the woman the monthly
stipend which he has so regularly for-
warded to her for years, and in the
course of the weeks hilarits incident
to his good luck has indulged in some
plays of fancy which, through the in-
nocent credulity of reporters, have
found their way into print, 10 the old
igentieman's great enjoyment.

A Proyident Englishman.

An affable, though somewhat des-
sicated American was on his way the
other day to the city of Boston. He
had, with that thrifty forethought of
his nation, secured a lower berth,
and was meditating upon the wisdom
of gathering his body behind the eur
tains when he was accosted by an
Englishman in a tweed suit. The
Englishman was of ample presence
and had the air of one who had been
pastured on mutton chops all his life.
''You will excuse me-" said he of
the tweed suit. "but am ! right in
supposing that you have the lower
berth ?''
"You bet your life." replied the
other.
"My sister," said the owner Of the
tweed suit, ''has the upper berth,
which is deuced awkward, you know.
The fact is, it's unpleasant for ladies
to climb up past a man in lower
berth. Now, might l ask you sir, to
do the extreme favor of occupying
the upper berth and permitting my
sister to take yours?''
The request was scarcely preferred
when the American, with the gallan-
try of genuine Yank, fastened to as
sure his English acquaintance that
nothing could give him more pleasure
than to be of service to the lady.
On the following morning the Amer.
ican was astonished to see a pair OF
tweed legs emerge from lower berth
opposite that which he had politely
given up, and the next moment the
adipose upper extremities of the En-
glishman.
"Say," said the American, as al
air of grave disgust began to creeI
lover his astonished physiognomy
"didn't you ask me to give up my
lower berth to your sister?''
Certainly, my dear fellow" re
piled the gentleman addressed, ''hop'
lyou slept well?"
Sand you had lower berth?"
"Of course
/ ''And then you got me to Civ
up mine to your sister, sir?"
"Why, my dear fellow" said tn
Englishman, in his turn, "you didn'
expect I'd give up lower berth t
nv own sister, did you?'

POsT-OFFICE RULES.
Seine Regulations That Careless Peo-
pie Should Always Observe.

We publish the following rules for
especial accommodation of Postmaster
Poteet and his efficient deputies, and
so the public can take advantage of
their privileges. They are imperative
and must be complied with:
! Never buy any stamps, but hand
your letter to the postmaster and tell
him to put stamp on it. If You are
out of change, tell him you will hand
it to him the next time you are in.
1t wont be necessary. however, to do
so, as three cents are nothing.
When you hand in your letter do
not forget to tell the postmaster to be
sure and have it go. If you don't
give this warning he might keep them
in the office.
Always remember to call the post
master and hand your letters to him
and not drop them IN the letter-box.
If you do, the postmaster will not
have so much to do, and YOU will
thereby encourage laziness. Remem-
Der that the postmaster would consider
it quite unkind to have your letters
stamped by anyone but himself. He
will be pleased, also, to put wrappers
On papers and back them occasionally
or often, especially when he is distrib-
uting mail.
When you put letter in, it is well
to ask how long it will be before you
can get an answer to it. OF course the
postmaster ought TO know, or he is
not fit to be postmaster.
If you have box do not cali the
number of it or your name, but stand
there and rap. This will oblige the
postmaster to take good look at you.
When he hands you your mail,
don't fail to ask if that is all. post
masters are in the habit of holding
back par. of ones mail, which, Of
course, they will not do after this
question is asked.
If an expected letter or paper does
not come, ask him what he supposes
is the matter, and say that it is mighty
curious. A postmaster ought to know
what is wrong in such cases after
being in the business a few months.
1t is well to tell him where you are
expecting one from, ard what husi-
iness it is about, etc. This kind of
Istory is calculated to interest a post
master, and render him good-natured.
You might hint to him, also, that your
letter must be in the post-ofiice some
where. That kind of insinuation al
ways makes you feel so jubilant.
If the man of the house does not
get letter, it would be well to send
the rest of the family, one at time.
There is no telling which might be
the lucky one. Each one should be
, instructed TO ask the postmaster il he
) is sure there is nothing. This will
tend to increase an angelic disposition
in the most cross-grained postmaster.

What He Would Do.

1t was in the smoking car on the
New York Central. There was one
chap who was clustering great deal
and telling of how many duels he had
fought, and behind him sat small
man reading a magazine.
''Sir," said the big man wheeling
around, "what would you do if chal-

Refuse was the quiet reply.
"Ah! l thought as much. Refuse
