THE BOY WHO WOULD NOT GO TO

BED.
ISophie e. Eastman In Independently
You may think him u Ounce.
But he begged that TOT once .
He might sit up all night, or as long as be
pleased;
With her murmured ~My dearsI"
But only the louder and faster he leased.
Overlooking the din,
His father came in:
swish 10 sit up all night, Johnf' he thought.
fully cried:
HYou shall nave your request
Till you've learned we know best
Nurse can go. / will stay at this naughty
boys side"
When two hours had passed,
John grew sleepy at last
And so tired that he feared he would fall
from his chair;
But, attempting to go,
Heard his fathers stern mo
Keep your scat at tho table. o place, SIR,
Is thore,"
Oil how slow ticks the clock,
With its dickory dock
CFor his father insists no should keep wide
: awake,
Til quite humbly he said; "
"May | please go to bedi
I've found You were right, and l made q mis-
take"
His father said yes; ~
And now you can guess
II ever that boy did the same thing again.
No sermon could preach,
No punishment teach,
A lesson moro clearly than he learned 1t then.
Now, boys, when you're told,
That it's bed time, don't scold,
And say that you feel just like keeping
pwbke;
Sitting IN nil the night
Isn't such q delight
JUSTIFY il for once, and youn own yow
mistake.

ScAeOA Aoio6 ioph-
A peculiar gambling case once came before
the Bow street police court. Two mon,
one tall and stout and the other
short, were charged under the follow
ing remarkable circumstances: A Bow
street officer named Croker was passing
along tho Hampstead road when he observed
the two prisoners Mt the top OF a wall. A
moment later he saw 10 his horror the tall
man hanging by his neck from a lamp post
attached to the wall. being that instant tied
up and turned of by the short man. Croker
rushed up to tho spot, when tns tall man fell
to the ground, the handkerchief with which
he had been suspended having fortunately
given way,
Croker produced his stsff, said be was an
officer, and demanle1an explanation OF the
proceeding; the only reply no reoeivod TO his
inquiry being n violent blow on the nose
from the tall man, which nearly knocked
him bsck Yard The short man ran
away; but the officer, procuring as
sistance, managed to capture both.
They explained to the bench that they
worked on canals. They had been tossing
Tor money, and afterward for the clothes.
Tho tall man, who has hanged, won the
others Jacket, Trousers, and shoes. Thoy
then agreed to toss up which should hang the
other, and the short man won. They got
upon the wall, and the tall man paid his
iebt of honor by allowing the short man to
hang him. They both agreed 70 this: and
the tall man said u be had won the toss he
would assursdly have hanged bis friend.

SWELL said Conductor Jones TO a reporter,
conc of the funniest things that ever hnp-
peucd on my trim occurred one day at Beth
lehem. An old man whom l had noticed in
the drawing-room car as q very lively and
laxative traveller got of at tina; station. !
was standing at an open window on the car
just as the train was starting of, when whom
should see but the jolly old man rushing
toward me from the outside. He pointed
frantically to a window just back of me,
e%xclaiming as well as he could while trying
to catch his bieath:
~My valise, left it-there-throw tout"
Turning quickly, l saw n large black valise
in the seat indicated, and, seizing IT, rushed
to the rear platform Of the car where there
was quito n number OF gentlemen. Tossing
1t TO one of tho men, as they blocked the way
so that l couldn't get through, l shouted:
Throw it to the old man there"
Without n moments hesitation the man did
as directed. As the valise left his hand he
made an Intellectual effort to regain posses,
sion OF it, then, with n muttered exclamation
which l couldn't comprehend, leaped from
tho train, seized the Inflated baggage, and
was just in time TO board one OF the rear
cars. 1t was all done in an instant, although
1t takes time to tell tho story. In a minute
he made his way forward and angrily asked;
"what did you tell me to throw this valise
of forf'
1Because the old man wanted it"
"Well, then, he's a thief. That valise is
mine"
"rhen," said l, laughing, for the whole
situation seemed so perfectly ridiculous,
"why under the sun did you throw Il of at
allI Didn't you know your own propertyfs
"Yes, but then il was all SO sudden, and
you told me to throw 1t, and"
But the roar OF laughter that greeted his
explanation broke short his sentence and he
was voted a leather medal by the passen-
gers
/ was convinced there was some explana-
ton for tho old mans conduct, for l was
personally acquainted with him and knew

Today the Reagan bill will come
to a vote III Congress. 1t is a
bill framed to relieve the people
Of the United States from the
cztortion Of railroad monopolies
and would probably benefit Nevada
more than any State in the Union
Yet while this Important measure
is pending, both our Senators are
absent FROM their post of duty and
only Congressman Cassidy is there
He is charged with being friend
ly to the road, and his vote on
the bill will be watched with pc
culiar interest by h constituents.
1t is to be hoped that Jones aud
Fair will not dodge the vote.
Dodg.ng a vote is worse in the
eyes Of most men than Voting the
wrong way.

THE RESTRICTION ACT.

The recent decision by the Su-
preme Court regarding, the admis-
sion to this country of coolies who
were in the country prior to the
passage of the Act in 1882, lets
down the bars in such manner that
an unlimited supply IF Chinese can
come in without hindcrance. They
are a foolish class Of people who
will censurc the Supreme Court
for no thinking man will claim
that their interpretation of the law
was anything but correct. Their
bu i less is to d al with the laws
as they find them. The fault of
the law lies soley with the parties
who framed it. Al idea seems to
have taken possession Of Congress
that tae length Of a law must be
in 9 ,me wa proportionate to the
siz' OF the subject @rappled with.
They passed a complicated bill and
now the Ingenious Monrolian
knocks hole through it before it
is fairly in worain. order
We believe as whole shat the
clever men of the Orient, are,
smarter than the average Con
gresham.
Congress hal better make one
more attemnt to fcam, Law that
will kea Chinese ont Of California
and i it fails again, p:ili down the
Tissue paper fence which it has
erected, and thus make an end Of
the farce.
