A FLOCCINC AT THE JAIL.

The almost obsolete custom of
fogging has been revived, under the
Malaihi regime, at the Honolulu Jail.
A native received dozen lashes
yesterday morning at the hands OF
Malaihi, who tells us that it was adj
ministered, by order of Marshal
Parke, because the man "was
saucy," and that the Marshal
wanted to give him two dozen
lashes," but Malaihi "begged him
off with doZen.' Malaihi further
informed us that it was the first time
that a man had been flogged in the
Jail for "five or six years. We
believe that the punishment was adj
mimstercd at $3.50 A. NJ. yesterday
by Malaihi, in the presence of all
the prisoners, the man being duly
tied up, but that no medical man
was in attendance to prevent toe
severe castigation. The sufferer is
n native who was working ut tho
foundation of the new Government
building, and he was "saucy" tc
the luna on Tuesday afternoon.

Buying Out a HotcIkceper.

Once more tho foaming beaker was
passed around. and then the second
old man began his second anecdote.
Our company played one night in q
town eight miles distant from Daniel
sonville, Conn. 1t was in the Spring,
and the weather was beautiful. In the
morning, before the company started
for Danielsonville, two of the men, who
were great pedestrians, went to the
manager and asked his permission to
walk TO the next town. The permits
sion was granted, and the two fellows
ground off ut the rate of four miles per
hour, arriving in Danielsonville little
while before the rest OF the company
rolled in on the cars. Accommodation
for the entire party had been engaged
by the advance agent at the one hotel
of the place. The manager went to
the hotel and inquired what kind of
rooms were ready for his people.
"I don't know that we can give
you any, said the clerk, looking coolly
at the manager.
"'What do you mean? Didn't our
agent make arrangements with youp'-
"'Ies, but I've changed my mind
since
Changed your mind! What for, I'd
like to know?'
"'That's my affair
"And the clerk coolly turned his back
and walked away. The enraged and
mystiiied manager rushed out TO seek
other accommodations. OF course, he
did not find any. But while out he
met the two men who had walked
down.
didn't get any rooms, did you?'
asked one OF them.
"'No; what's the matter here?'
"'Wcll, I'll tell you. Some kind
friend of the hotelkeeper telegraphed
him that the company was broke and
two OF them had to walk"
The hearers of the second old man
gave vent to various expressions of
disgust at this instance of Yankee
shrewdness.
What did the manager do?" asked
PlarXimandcr.
"Woll, I'll tell YOU" answered the
narrator. ale had $1,000 in small
bills done up in two rolls so that they
looked rs if they contained much more.
He went back 10 the hotel and called
fox the proprietor. That person APP
preached in a naughty manner and
co!dly said, We'll, sir, what do you
want? The manager looked at him
from head to foot Then he drew out
his rolls of money and, slamming them
down on the counter, asked in voice
of thunder:
'What'l you take for your internal
little shanty?'

about two tons. Then he bowed very
low and, rubbing his hands together,
said: What can | do for you to-day,
Sir?' "-IHeatricai Renaissance NJ Y

Thought He RascmbIcd Webster.

Many lawyers were seated around
and, as their wont is, they began to
tell stories.
"Whcn was a young man," said
Judge NJ, whose stock Of legal anec-
dotes is ineXhaustible, ''thcv, WAS a
lawyer in New York whose name was
R. He was not much. of genius,
but he prided himself on being like
Daniel Webster. He got himself up to
resemble the famous law yer, adopted
a collar and necktie like his, and wore
his hair in the same fashion. In court
and in private life he affected Web
sterian attitudes and tons and was
thoroughly satisfied that he was Web
ster's counterpart. Vanity was not
the only failing which characterized
R. He never paid his debts when
it was possible tc avoid payment. One
day creditor to whom he had owed
moncv for Il long time and whom he
had put off with excuses over and over
again, entered Rs office. The lawyer
was seated at his desk and on the top
of bookstand in front of him was
bust of Webster.
GOOD morning, Mr.. R. said the
creditor. How well you are looking.
Good heavens he calculated, raising
his eyes TO the bust, what a splendid
likeness; where did you have that
takenp
".Think it's like, emp the lawyer
said, smiling.
"Liker the creditor exclaimed, why
it's marvellous. Who is the sculptor?
l never saw such fine work. When
did you sit for it?'
fla, ha. the lawyer laughed gent
ly, do you think it's good? Well, 1
suppose it is. 1t doesn't natter any
how.
.Fiatter?' the creditor said; it is
the very living representation of you.
BY the way, Mr. R, called in on a
little business, but that splendid bust
drove it out of my head-about that
little bill, you know. If it's perfectly
convenient and won't incommode you,
| should like to have the money
"'Why, certainly said the lawyer,
with gracious air, and forthwith he
produced his pocketDook and paid the
amount.
GAS the creditor was quitting the
office, he paused, with the door in his
hand, and, lGsandr back, said:
".You d,of a lappose I'm such a
blank blankS Mn as to suppose that
bust was ever Intended for you. It's
no more like you than it's like Mel
chizedek."

He Knew Her Husband.

There are individuals who possess
the happy faculty of forgetting nobod.
but they are far less common than is
generally supposed. The value of a
hotel clerk depends very largely upon
his ability to salute travellers by name,
and promptly have the hotel beat fired
into the street by the porter. Some de-
tectives, by cultivating this faculty long
and assiduously, have acquired it to a
remarkable degree, but the general run
of them would forget Ben Butler in a
month, and wouldn't know their own
mother if she should disguise herself
with their fathers coat and hat.
John +. Martin, the Superintendent
of the Poor, has, from his long service
in that office, nearly fifteen years, be-
come so familiar with the features of the
poor and unfortunate that he is rarely
obliged 10 ask name, or refer to his
books. Besides the destitute, howev-
er, there is another class who come to
him for information. They are those
who have relatives in the Insane Asy-
lum on the County House grounds; Oft
times well dressed people in easy cir
cumstanccs. Johnny makes it point
to remember these, also, but he made
q mistake the other day thai made his
hair stand on end for an hour, and
gave him a congestive chill.
A large, distinguished looking lady,
who desired to gain some information
in regard 10 the poor of the city. and
how they are taken care of, came in
and said TO him:
II presume you remember me, sirP"
Eyes, ma am; your husband is out in
the asylum, believe"
mo, sir!' exclaimed the lady, in
tones that fairly Kissed around John
ny's head. mo, sir! my hus band is
not i'll your insane asylum, nor in your
poorhousc. Ally husband, sir is a gen,

Abuse of Rich Mep.

1t is about time that justice was done
in fiction to our rich men. They have
Jared rather badly in our literature
until the advent of the new school who
would have us believe that only the
weak and mean things in common life
are fit to be noted as foils for the calm,
sweet life that floats above tin the
mystic realm where millions are no
more than pennies to the poor. There
has been a strange propensity on the
part of the American novelist hereto
fore to almost make war on the very
richest rich of our land. He has de-
lighted in tracing them back to the
dunghill, in showing by what arts they
rose, and noting the effect of these
things upon the tinsel lives of upper
tendon. That day is gone, and we are
evidently nearing the millennium when
the only people worth knowing will be
those whose fortune are writ in six
figures. We are glad to see it. 1t is
time they had their innings. They
cannot be too good, though they say
be too many, and it is perhaps time
that this age OF mammon lovers should
begin to shape and fashion their gold
en- calves.-The Continent.

Mr.. Emerson and the Reporter.

Mr.. Emerson was to read paper
before select company. When the
philosopher mounted the platform the
reporters were all ready at the tables
below to catch every word. Mr.. Emer-
son espied them, and prefaced his pa
per with the request that no report
should be made of his essay.
Every reporter save one put away
his paper and pencils. The one ex-
ception fell to work with apparently
more energy than if the sage had not
asked him to desist. Mr.. Emerson
glanced inquiringly at him several
times, and at length paused in his
discourse and said: ..In spite of my
request not to be reported, l observe
one of the gentlemen at the press table
is making copious notes of my paper. !"
Instantly every eye was turned upon
the offending scribe.
Rising from his seat and looking at
Mr.. Emerson, he replied: No; Mr.
Emerson, l was not doing anything of
the kind. was busy writing on a
private work OF my own, He was a
writer OF serial stories as well as u
-ga;hercr for the daily press.

Painfully Embarrassed.

A stranger who got into the Union
Depot yards yesterday while trying to
find the railroad ferry slip, would have
been run down by one of numerous
switch locomotives had not a man at
work in the flour sheds seized him and
pulled him off of the track. The stran-
ger was greatly confused and shaken
up for moment, but after he had TAX
en- seat on the platform and got his
breath he called out:
''My man, that was nobly done! l
expect you can make use of $1,000 in
cashP'
"Well, perhaps"
The stranger breathcd heavily,
rubbed his arm, and after minute
continued:
''Yes, feel just like making you a
present of thousand dollars"
This was a painful reduction from
his first observation, but il wasn't for
the fiOur-rOller to find fault. He
brushed away at the strangers hat TO
get the dust off, and as he handed it
over he was informed:
81 think you would know where to
put 500 if you had il, eh?"
al want nothing, sir. You were in
danger, and pulled you away"
But shall insist upon your accept
ing something. You certainly saved
my life, and L shouldn't begrudge
$25"
He got out his wallet, which was
crowded full of bills, and as he handed
them over he remarked:
Ten dollars would buy your wife
dress, and every time she wore it you
could think of me-"
Yes, SIR
The bill came out but was quickly
replaced, and after minute spent in
some mental calculation the stranger
all at once handed out a 81 bill with
the observations:
'.Here, my man, 60 and get you a
new hat, and rest assured l shall ever
be grateful to YOU"
Then it was seen that the laborer was
painfully embarrassed. He shifted from
one leg to the other, looked up and
down the shed, and when asked the
trouble he replied:
"Please, sir, but havn't you any
small change about you? think a
quarter would be plenty of reward for
saving your life"
"a quarter! Well, considering the
railroad company pays you for the time
you were hauling me around, maybe
that's enough. Here it is, and hope
you will make good use of it. l guess
1 can get down to the slip all right
from here, but if you happen to save
my life again you can look for half
dollar at least. "-Detroit Free Press.
