a Printers "reminiscences of Artsmus
Wor1

Every now and then / read an anec-
dote of Artemus Ward, and they nearly
all point the same way-to his fondness
for practical jokes 1t fact, it seems to
be popular opinion that all humorists
spend or have spent most of their time
connecting and executing these alleged
pleasantries. For one. / am inclined to
doubt these stories. My acquaintance
with the great Ward, and the impress
sion formed of him by it. makes it seem
impossible that he could do anything to
give another pain, even in the way of a
joke.
In 1858, l was working "at case on
the Plai'adealer, Cleveland, Ohio. Chas.
+. Browne was then the local reporter
OF that paper, and was just beginning
to gain a national reputation by having
his productions copied by the papers all
over the country. / had the honor
and l consider it a great honor to this
day, though [ thought little of it then
to set up many of the ''goaks,'' as he
called them, fresh from his pen, that
afterwards made him famous wherever
the English language was spoken.
The P{ai1adedler was small evening
paper of Democratic proclivities, en-
ploying, l think, only six hands, and,
as is the case in most small offices, tho
editorial staff and the mechanical force
were on quite intimate terms, at least in
the Office. Artemus was then working
for the munificent salary of ten dollars
per week, and type-setters received %
cents per thousand. He was always in
good humor, and very seldom kicked.
even when the intelligent compositor
mangled mis- witticisms past recogni-
ton. have often seen him come into
the composing room with proof, take
the galley, and correct mistakes, with
the remark, perhaps, that sit is too fun
ny; must fix it.
He was great favorite, and every.
body in Cleveland knew him-not few
by his nose. Now in all the anecdotes
l have read of Artemus Ward {and
never allow one to escape me) that
great index to mans character, the
nose, has never appeared. To illustrate
the hugeness of that organ possessed
by him, | will relate couple of Incl
dents: F

nose. Artemus got the hat and wore it.
Ward invited the printers in the office
to little supper one evening. OF
course we all accepted. There was
some punch, and all in the party par
took quite freely. Strange thing if they
didn't, you might think. / remember
one of the toasts was 1.-The Nose of
Artemus- may its shadow never grow
less" In great good humor he arose
and replied at length, making us cry
with laughter.
This nose was of the extreme yelling
ton type, and L never saw but one to
equal i'll mean in dimensions-an it
belonged to tramp printer named
Williams. He was called 'Ham-Nosen
Williams for short by his familiars.-

Enough Puppies until After Election.

huOuSu upp16S uutll altoI hltCtlOus
"Did you ever hear about John Os-
born and his setter pups?"
On being informed that his listener
had not only not heard of them but, was
surprised that the man owned setter
pups, he began:
John Osborn ran for Sheriff in St.
Paul, Mimi, and while he was working
all the boys with his good nature he had
frequent calls at his house, and when
ever man with a fancy for field sports
came the talk always fell upon beauti-
full setter and her fine puppies.
Nice puppies John.
"'Yes, bully puppies, amt they?'
"'They are the most beautiful setter
pups | ever saw anywhere.
...Then the candidate for sheriff would
take the man aside, and, in a confiden-
tial tone, tell him:
'''You just wait till after election
and I'll give you one of those pups
This thing had been going on for
couple of weeks. and one evening a man
shut the door and left the house with
the promise of a pup lingering in his ear,
when Mrs. Osborn asked:
. John, how many puppies are
there?
- Five. Why?'
"'Well. was thinking that tonight
you had promised the twenty-third man
that he should have one of them
"'Oh, well, Mary said Osborn, don't
you think it would be a mean man TO
run for sheriff who wouldn't promise
pup to his friend?''-W WASHINGTON Re

ShGrt-Hapd Talking.

Among the common errors in the use
of language are these: The mispro-
nouncing of unaccented syllables, as
terruble, for terrible; the omission of
O letter or short syllable, as goin' for
going, and ev'ry for every; and the run
ming of words together without giving
to every one separate and distinct pro-
nounciation.

Here they took different streets, and
their conversation ceased. These boys
write their composition dramatically,

it distinctly if they would try. But they

Cherry has pretty well superseded

black walnut for fine house inisbings,
and now another rather neglected native
wood is coming to the front. This is
cedar. Cedar land all over the country
is looking up. and becoming more valu-
able. The demand for cedar has in
creased its value enormously within a
few years. This is not only true of the
Northern States, but is applicable to the
South. A recent sale OF two tracts of
cedar timber land, in Wilson county.
Tenn, at 1925 per acre for one and
$40. % for the other, is evidence of a
brisk demand

/ sold one of your Patent Dust Proof
Cases about ten months ago, and the
other day it came back to me with the
request to make it wind easier. On ex
animation / found that the stem was rusty
and inquired into the cause of it. The
gentlemen stated to me that he was start
ing some saw-logs that had lodged in the
bend of the river, when his chain caught
in bush and threw his watch into about
twelve feet of water, and he was about
hours finding it. When he got it ont it
was running and he thought all right.
In about three months he found that the
stem was hard to turn and he sent it to
me. l can say that the watch is all that
the company claims for it and recon-
mend it to all railroad and mill men.

This case is formed in one solid piece
without Joint or seam, opening in front
only, thus avoiding the usual Cap. and
securing greater strength and durability.
These watches are all open face. The
bezel, into which an extra strong crystal
isftted with an especially prepared water
proof cement, is attached to the case by
screwing it thereon, and thus forms an
air tight junction with the body of the
case, which is proof against dust and
moisture.
To railroad men, travellers, miners,
lumbermen and others who are almost
constantly exposed and who have to make
frequent reference to the watch, these
qualities are of the utmost importance.

Shocking Uxorfcide

MILWAUKEE, Oct. GA horrible mur-
der was committed on the South side some
time at All early hour this morning. Tues
day afternoon German couple, supposed
to be man and wife, arrived in the city
from Bismarck, Oak, and found quarters
at 800 Clinton street. At an early hour
this morning the man came down from
the room occupied by himself and wife,
and remarking that his wife was feeling
quite badly, left the house for the purpose
of purchasing some clothing. Nothing
more was thought of the matter aI the
time until afternoon, when the discovery
was made that the new boarder had failed
to return. A visit was at once made to
the room and the door was found locked
The proprietor knocked yigoronly, but re-
ceived no response. Then it was decided
to kick the door open, which was done.
a horrible sight met the eyes OF those
present. On the bed lay the body of a
dead woman, surrounded by pools of
blood. Her head was mashed to jelly.
The sight was a sickening one. The in
