Walkine the Track.

A sleepy policeman was yawning and
rubbing his eyes in East Fifty-ninth
street one morning last week. when
his attention was attracted by the
sound of unsteady footsteps. An Irish
man with a red face and a fringe OF
white whiskers came staggering along,
the worse for liquor. The policeman
recognized him as one of the political
lights of the ward.
Good morning, Mr.. Mulcahey.
''Gud mornin' to you, SOFT. Is 1t

"rn bet you can't go inside the car
track for block"
'.Begorra, can"
The whole street seemed too narrow
for Mr. Mulcahey, and the policeman
felt sure of winning. MIR. Mulcahey
walked nearly half block of the up
track, and was advancing with an un'
steady gait and great solemnity of ex.
preston, when a runaway came il
sight. The driver had fallen of, anC
the horses were plunging madly. Mr..
Mulcahey shouted to take them to the
other track.
1t took four policeman to pry the
wagon off Mr.. Mulcahey, and, when hi
revived in Bellevue Hospital. he said:
Il can whip the man who hit me. -

Which One?

A certain Turk, according to Mr..
Frank R Stockton, was once married
to yelled lady in white in the presence
of the sultan As soon as the ceremony
was concluded the bride mysteriously
disappeared. The groom was led into
an adjoining room, where stood twelve
ladies all dressed in white, but without
wells. CHOOSE from the twelve" ex-
claimed the sovereign, 'her that is
your bride" As the man had never
seen her face. the command bewildered
him. ''If you make mistake" added
his majesty, ''your life shall pay the
forfeit The poor fellow walked up
and down the row of beauties, but saw
| nothing whatever TO aid his choice.
''You have only a minute left, p" yelled
the sultan in anger; choose at once. y
Two of the ladies, he noticed, gave him
something else than q stony stare. One
! of them frowned; the other smiled.
"The frowning one." he thought, sis
my bride, for she expresses her dis
pleasure and impotence at my ignor-
ance. No." he said to himself; I'll
must be the smiling one, for she desire:
to invite me to her" After debating
the subject in his mind until his time
was up, he boldly made selection
from the two. He was successful. ID
had regained his bride. Which wa:
| she, the one who frowned or the one
| who smiled? The answer to the ques
, ton MIR. Stockton leaves in impenetra
