Teaching the Waiter.

From the Ambassadors Of sCommerce.l
 The Saracen's Head hotel, Lincoln, was noted for three things--a very gruff landlord, a very cheeky waiter, and 1865" The latter term was synonym for the very best rice pudding or anyone else ever tasted and as it was produced every day in the year, we christened it 1885" I can vouch for it being on the table twice month for twenty-two years, and always good alike. I may add always forthcoming. But it is of Arthur the waiter would speak. It was always suspected that this swallow-t tailed, modest looking garcon was guilty of removing the decanters, and especially the small black bottles of crusty, s'bee's-wingy" old port before they were quite empty; this was es- pecially noticed by MT. Thompson, sharp witted commercial" who on the day in question hinted the fact to the president.
 It was rather large dinner party, and Arthur was in unusually good form. A pint of old port was ordered and emptied; the bottle was partly reilled with salt, pepper, cayenne, mustard, Worcester sauce, Chili vinegar, anchovy, etc. Bring in the bill, Arthur" said the president. "Yes, sir, and as usual Arthur hurriedly took off the black bottle. The company waited some time, but no Arthur and no bill appeared. Whereupon the "vice" was asked to ring the bell In came "buttons." ''Tell Arthur to bring in the dinner bill at once," said the president. "Please, sir, he can't, he's nearly dead he's choked. ''The gentlemen at the table became alarmed, and hurried out of the room to find poor Arthur in most painful position He was black in the face, and sur rounded by his fellow servants. On his re- coxery he solemnly promised never again to test the quality of leavings in the black bottle.

Nero the Wise.


 ''W. B. B." writes from Jersey: II do not think you need to go so far afeld as America for good dog stories. I had a dog here for years Che is dead now, rest his shade) who was quite as intelligent as any American dog can be. He was a cross between re- triever and Newfoundland, and his name Nero. would go to market with him in the morning, distance of nearly 8 mile, and buy the meat for the days dinner. This was placed in rush basket and given to Nero, who at once wagged his tail and took it home, always honestly. Like the boy who, to get an hours play, discovered the principle of the eccentric as applied to the the necessity of going to the butchers at all. said butcher to Nero every morning before we started. One day I put letter to the butcher in his basket, ordering a pound of steak. Then said butcher very earnestly. Nero looked thoughtful. Presently he went out little way, stopped, looked back, and wagged his tail I said butcher again, and Nero started off I waited anxiously. In a little over half an hour Nero returned with the steak. petted him much, and he seem ed pleased. After that he always went to market and always shared with his master the dinner which he had bought.

For fidelity, accuracy, promptness and discipline he is highly rec commended. On Saturday he was summoned to the collectors office and informed by that officers private secretary that he must imme- diately resign or be dismissed He refused to do the former and was given till Tuesday to consider the matter. On his natural in- quiry whether there were any charges against him he was told that it was not a matter of charges. His place is said to be wanted for politician who will use the large force of laborers under his control for the benefit of Boss Mclaughlin. Tie demand for MT. Bacon's resignation was not renewed Tuesday and the New York Times feels free to say that if the collector has not lost his senses it will not be renewed, nor will MT. Bacon be removed.

An Independent Cat.

From the Westchester Village Record.
 Mrs. Anna Allison, residing at the Willow Glen mills, Pennsbury township, is the owner of black cat that has acquired the remarkable habit of catching fish for it's liv- ing and has become so expert at the business of catching them that it seldom misses fish that it makes plunge into the water after. For quite long time previous to a few weeks ago the cat had consistently refused food of any kind that the family offered it. and Mrs. Allison and the rest of the members of her household wondered not little where the cat could be being fed, which it certainly must be, as it retained perfectly healthy condition.
 One day, about three weeks ago. however, the entire mystery was cleared up suddenly and unexpectedly by the cat being observed to make dive into the mill race close by the house and reappear in short time with g good sized fish in it's mouth, which it at once proceeded to devour. Since then it has often been seen springing from footbridge over the stream into the water and catch fish, which form it's entire diet. The animal will dive clear out of sight in the water when 1t sees fish in it, and catches quite number of them daily.

THE CONNECTICUT REFORMERs.

A
 We publish this morning an interesting and pertinent letter addressed to some of the prominent mugwumps of this vicinity by the Hon. Lvnde Harrison, chairman of the Republican State committee. Mr. Harti- son briefly and fairly states the position of the civil service reformers who did not act with the Republican party during the last campaign, and then reminds them that it would interest many of their old friends in the Republican party to know whether their alliance with the Democratic party was tenn porary, or is to be permanent. So it would, but we do not imagine that this conundrum will meet with an immediate solution, for we do not suppose that many of the civil ser
 vice reformers know just where they do stand politically. Probably most of them would be glad to act again with the Republi- can party, if that party would nominate first class men and emancipate itself from the control of the ttbosses' who have almost "bossed" the life out of it. The leaders of the Republican party have by their shott- sightedness, their insincerity and their per
 sonal greed driven most of the men who are now actively engaged in the civil ser vice reform movement out of the party. They hated to go, but they felt compelled to. We do not believe the strength of this feeling was ever realized by those who should have been quick to see and feel it.
 But an important question, which Mir. Harrison forcibly calls attention to, is, arc those who have left the Republican party for the reasons above indicated getting, or in way to get, what they were and are after? It is clear that the great cause of civil service re- form has not received much aid from the &C., tion of the President in regard to the offices civil service reformer. Nothing that MT. English has done indicates that he is, and we believe that nobody who knows him expects much reformation of the civil service from Mir. Byxbee. The truth is that the civil ser- vice reformers of Connecticut have abundant reason to feel disgusted with the way in which their heroic efforts for reform and the Democratic party have resulted. And as MT. Harrison says: ''It will not do to criticise the removal of tide-waiters, gauQers and let ter carriers for political reasons, and fail to condemn the authorities at Washington when the spirit and purpose of civil ser vice reform are not observed in Executive appointments" It seems to us, and has long se seemed, that the least the civil service reformers of Con- necticut can consistently do is to make a lively 'kick' against the doings in regard to the federal offices of this State. Perhaps they have kicked, but if they have nobody has heard of it. And if they can't make their kick felt at Washington in their own chosen way, they can secure attention by helping the Republicans carry the State.
