A wild-cyed but plcasant-looking
young man with bucolic aspect and big
ieet presided over the destinies OF pro-
incc wagon that moved clumsily down
Warren street. He knew he wanted to
get to the farther shore, but was totally
unable to locate the ferries. When
about half 4 block from Broadway he
stopped his team by well nigh imper-
eeptible witch at the reins and soft

and then said with great originality
.Ah, pull down your vest"
ssGit out, ye cross-eyed bung stalte.,

chest.
Upon this the rural delegate stuck out
his tongue in derision at the coal cart
driver, and jerking the rcins violently
yelled "Yerp there!''
When the driver from the suburbs
came to the corner he turned southwark
md thus committed an awful blunder,
for he drove his team into Church street.
Within ten minutes nearly all the north
bound street car travel on the west side
Of New York was blocked, there were
half dozen car drivers around the pro-
duce wagon, and the countryman was
reduced to black despair. His wagon
was firmly wedged across thestreet with
oil the cars and car drivers urging it

Nothing to Mark it.

Wild Beckn,an, the champion
swimmer of the world, said to a New
York Herald reporter: "When I
was at Niagara Falls a few days ago,
Isaw the place where CAPTAIN Webb
was drowned and a grand sight it
was looking out over the Fails and
Rapids with their laundering bill
lows of foam. Then I took a carriage
and drove to the church yard where
be was buried. l could not find the
grave and had to get the undertaken
to point it out. Beside a little oak
tree, close to the fence, was a dirt
heap without twig or stick to mark
it. That was Webb's grave. 1t made
my heart ache to think that such a
noble fellow should be buried like a
dog. 1 remember the time when all
