A CLEVER TRICK.-Dr. Hauffe, the cele-
brated physician of Vienna, one day re-
ceived telegram from CracoW, requesting
him to repair thither with all haste, as
Moses Abrahamson was very i'll and re-
quired advice. This Moses was known to
be one of the richest men of his tribe. The
doctor, who had an enormous practice and
was very busy at the time, wired back:
"My fee will be two thousand tiOrins."
A second dispatch urged him to come
without delay, but added that he might
surely do it for less.
"Not kreutZer less than two thousand
fiorins," was the reply from Vienna; where
upon the final telegram came to hand, di-
recting the physician to come at once:
1t was the depth of winter and bitterly
cold, so that the medical man was anything
but pleased at the prospect Of the proposed
long Journey. But what was his disgust on
being met at the Cracow railway station by
a deputation of long-coated Polish Jews,
bringing the tidings that he came too late,
as Moses Abrahamson had died few hours
before.
AS there was no train back to Vienna
that day, he was perfOrce compelled to put
up for the night at hotel. Meanwhile the
news of the great doctors arrival had spread
through the town, and sick people OF every
description, both Jews and Christians, be-
sieged his door. So many afflicted persons
touched his compassionate heart, that he
freely gave them the advice they needed
When at last he got to the station, and was
about to step into the carriage, Polish Jew
came siding up to him with knowing
smile on his face, and whispered in his ear :
81 say, doctor, only wanted to tell you
that Moses AbrahamsOn isn't dead. Not a
bit of it; he was among those patients
whom you just cured for nothing"

THE RELIEF OF LUCKNOW.-GeOrge
Sharp, at present resident of Denver, has
had a somewhat eventful career. He was
born in the county of Surry, England, in
1888, and is consequently Al years of age at
this time. When Is years old Sharp en-
listed in the British army in the l2th :, Lane C.
ers. On the following year he took part
in the relief of Lucknow, acting as a trough
riding" corporal at the time.
Corporal Sharp fought at the. siege OF
Lucknow, at Delhi, and afterwards in bat
ties fought by the British army in the East
Indies and China, and bears several wounds
on his person as evidence of his services, for
which at the present time he receives pen
sion of one shilling day from the British
government. Sharp says the 18th Lancers
were under the command of Col. Bolles, but
that the whole expedition was commanded
by Sir Hope Grant, Lord Havelock having
died short time previously. With the
18th Lancers were the I'D foot Scotch, and
the 42d foot, together with some other troops.
Sharp gives graphic description OF the
light on November II, 1857, the I'D playing
the ''The Campbells are Coming" and the
renewed courage of the besieged when they
heard these magic homelike strains. The
attack on the fort cost Sir Colin Campbell a
loss of LOO men, the rebel Sepoys over
5000. A large number of rebels made their
escape, among them the young king, of
Dude, and his mother, known as the "oe-
gum" :,
Sharp, of course, after his long and hard
service in the Lancers, is an expert horse
man. In 1881 Sharp, who had come to
America, was employed in Lorillard's New
Jersey stables, and in this capacity took the
noted horse, Iriquois, to England in June,
1881, where he won the celebrated Derby
stakes, together with large amount of
money which had been wagered on the
result. Large amounts of money passed on
the race, which was the first victory of an
American horse in England. Sharp after
