A Tumble Under the Hat.

A writer on the inner life of the
House Of Commons says: mo menu
Der likes to be seen bringing in a
glass of water atsome indefinite time
before his speech. Things may turn
up SO that he finds no opportunity
to speak and to be left with super
huous glass of water in such circum-
stances is a little ludicrous. Still
to most speakers the refreshment is
indispensable, and the usual course
taken is to depend upon the courte-
sy of gentlemen sitting near you to
90 and bring the water while you are
on your legs. If Mr.. Ashmead-
Bartlett, brother-in-law of the Bar
oness, is observed entering the
House with his hat carefully balan-
ced in his hand, the inflated well
know what is to the fore. He has
got tumbler of water in his hat
and this he secretes under the bench
before him when he intends to speak
Sometimes, if the Grafton is to be
long, he repeats this maneuyer, and
once disclosed the existence of three
several tumblers under the bench
before him. The other night ht
threw himself on the charity of the
Irish members near whom he sat
and one of them brcvght in a large
tumbler Of liquid which, if it wa.
simply water, justified all the hare
thingh Major Frank Bolton, in BIZ
report, says as to the color Of ou
London water"

A Too FuRny Boy.

Benny Brewster. the son of the At
torney-G General, is very lively boy
according to all reports. The other
day he infuriated all of the staff Of
the Attorney-General to pitch OF
madness.
On his fathers desk there is a Lot
of buttons, connecting with electric
al calls in all subordinary offices OF
the department, from the Solicitor
General down. One day, not long
ago, Benny was 10 with his father.
Suddenly, before the latter could
stop him, Benny began to play upon
all OF the electricity buttons at once
as if upon the keys OF piano.
These sudden and repeated calls
created a panic in the department.
The Solicitor-General, a grave, dig
nified gentleman, the Assistant At
torney-General, the Chief Clerk, and
in all about twenty chiefs, came in
one after another in mad haste, OILY
to be met by an apology from the
Acknowledgement, while Benny
bowling with laughter upon the car
pet where he lay rolling, as the
slaves of the buttons appeared and
disappeared, black with wrath not
withstanding Brewster's amiable
begging for forgiveness of the mad
freak of his dear, merry son. Wash

Difference In Boys.

"Yes, there's a heap OF difference
in boys" replied the old man, as he
tied up bag of oats. There's my
son John, for instance. Everybody
beats him in hoss trade, swindles
him on watch dicker, and leaves
him out in the cold when he farms
on the sheers. He's good hearted,
but there's no business about him
If | had TO depend on John, I'd die
in the poor house"
He wrestled the bag aside, seized
another and continued:
And there was my son Philip
keen as a razor-eyes wide open
and so sharp that no man in New
jersey dare offer him a pair of old
boots for a $500 hoss, for fear of be
ing cheated"
Is he dead?"
"Yes, he's gone, and that was ths
smartest trick of all. He found he'd
got consumption, and what did he
do but hunt up Il life insurance
agent, take out $1,000 policy, and
give his note for the premium, and
tall off a losd of hay and run q
pitchfork clear through him. Somt
sons would have hung on and doc
tored around and wanted currnt jel-
ly and chicken soup for Is months
but that wasn't Phil. No, sir, He
didn't even ask for anything better'r

needn't git that unless the marble
cutter would trade even up for q

A Bogus Lord.

A lord" about ten days ago came
across a brother Englishman residing
near Winfield, Union county. He
was dressed so fine and ingratiated
himself so well into the good opln-
ion ofhis new acquaintance that be
succeeded in borrowing considerable
money from him. The lord" said
he had been robbed of a big pile of
money at Chicago, and had got into
bad fix financially, and wanted a
loan for a few days, until he could
reach a town in Canada where be
had 10000 pounds on deposit. His
new found friend was only too glad
to accommodate the lord" and the
latter promised to repay the hundred
borrowed with thousands. AS might
have been expected the 'lord" was a
swindler. He has not refunded the
loan, of course, and will never be
heard of again.
The Lewisburg Chronicle says
At the time the lord visited our cred
ulous friend, the lotter told US all
about If. We thought there was
something a little out of joint, but
the story he told, and his apparent
Christian department were OF such
a convincing character, that we
thought itimprudent to even hint
that there was anything wrong.
This ''Noble lord" conducted family
worship, and never thought of eating
meal without first asking q bles-
sing. A more complete wolf in
sleeps clothing would be hard to
find.

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying a silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made of composition known
as albata, which is a very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in a short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order 10 make the cap
thicker and ge. in as much as possible Of
the cheap metal. Another important point
in asilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. These of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
not suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
Keystone SilyerWatch Gases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

Rather an Awkward Fix.

In New Haven. on Saturday, Miss Nellie
Manning dropped Der rings from win
dow into a narrow space between DeboFS
restaurant and Cutters art gallery. She
conceived the idea OF climbing down the
fae-pola between the buildings and get
ling them. The buildings are closer to-
gether at the bottom than at the top. ~ a
consequence. Miss Manning, who is young
woman Of rather a pOrtly figure, found
herself tightly wedged in between the
walls Of the two buildings while she
was about fifteen feet from the ground.
She screamed. and the inmates Of
the two adjoining buildings were aroused
and a crowd collected. Word was sent to
the police station. and Chief Webster, De
tective Brewer. and Officer Bradley answer
Cd the summons and brought rope, with
the idea Of loOsening the young woman and
hauling her up. Upon their arrival they
found that she had nearly reached the
third story by means OF ladder that had
been let down. Her strength failed her n
she neared the window, and the officers
seized her and hauled her in. She tainted
after being rescued. The rings which she
tried TO recover are still in the pasSage-way.

SLOW Recovery Of Queen Victoria.

LONDON, April 4.--The recovery OF The
Queen is less rapid than her physicians had
reason to expect. While the injury 10 ber
knee is by no means serious, it - feared
that it may indirectly affect her accustomed
good health by causing her to lose the
daily outdoor exercise with which she has
been in the habit Of refreshing herself.
Or. Jenner, physician-in-ordinary to the
Queen, has directed that she take almost
complete rest as the best means OF pre-
venting swelling in the injured part and
Of reducing the pain. This course will, it
is believed, soon reduce the slight inflam-
nation and give her Majesty the full use OF
her limb.
A dispatch from Windsor Castle, dated
2 O'Clock this afternoon, says the Queens
general health continues excellent, despite
the precautionary safeguards as 20 exercise
which her physician has imposed, and that
although not permitted to walk yet she took
a drive during the forenoon, riding in a
carriage with the Princess Beatrice.
