Coke on Etiquette.
New York Herald.

Speaking of judge Coke to a congress
man from his state this evening drew out
the following:
The senator lives down on Sixth street,
in strict retirement. Nobody is allowed
to visit him without first sending up his
card. When the recent spell of warm
weather was at its height the front door
was left open one evening. It happened
that two of his political friends from
Galveston were in the city and seeking
his residence. Seeing Judge Coke through
the lighted window, they assembled and
knocked at his door. Being asked to en-
ter, the visitors stepped into the room,
and were about to greet the senator, when
he said:
"Gentlemen. regret to say that it is a
rule of this house that the cards of Wis
itors must always be sent up to me. I
have to request that you will observe the
custom
Certainly we WILL, was the abashed
reply as the visitors backed out of the
apartment.
They rang the bell, gave the servant
girl their cards, and waited patiently for
her return. They were anxious to humor
the old mans exeentricities.
The girl reappeared, and the visitors al
most tainted when she said:
Senator Coke is not in

A DiSheartened Frenchman.
7 he Theater,

Pay Director Murray of the United
States navy, is very tall, and is endowed
with physique in full proportion to his
height. When sitting, he holds himself
very erect, and an Ordinary-sized person,
If seated behind the genial naval officer
would experience considerable difficulty
IN obtaining view of what was passing
in front.
Several years ago, while in Paris, Pay,
Director Murray visited the the Grand
opera house, and was enjoying the per-
Torrance very quietly, when his pleasure
was suddenly interrupted by the mutter-
lngs of an individual seated directly be-
hind him.
Turning slightly around to discover the
cause of his annoyance, he found dimin-
utlye Frenchman in perfect rage over
something which was unintelligible to
him. Raising his opera glasses to obtain
better view of one of the performers his
establishment may be imagined when he
felt his arm pushed down, and voice,
trembling with anger, Kissed into his
ear:
''Win you sect down, iv you please,
sair?"
The request not only surprised the pay
. director, but amused him intensely, and
with most comical expression in his
eyes, he turned around, surveyed his &C
quaintance fIom head to foot, and slowly
arose from his chair, stood erect, and,
without uttering a word, quietly resumed
his former attitude.
The mingled look of dismay and dis
gust with which the little Frenchman sur
veyed his hated neighbor as he stood be-
fore him, six feet and six inches tall,
caused most decided laugh to go the
rounds, and, being sensitive little plant,
he could not stand the awkward position
IN which he had unwilling placed himself;
so, with desperate attempt at an apollo
gy, he hurrledly left the theater.

on the stand when the justice dismissed
the prisoner without waiting to hear the
evidence.
''But your Honor" objected the lawyer,
u can surely prove that this man is
guilty"
Il know that" replied the justice, ''but
the Slocum law is not right, and l won't
convict any one under it,
''But, your Honor" continued the
lawyer, with triumphant smile, 1.-THE
Supreme Court has decided that it is con-
stitutional"
II can't help that. Just because the
Supreme Court has made fool of itself,
it doesn't oblige me to make fool of my
self. The law amt right, and the prisoner
can 60"
The justice maintained this ground
despite the objections of the lawyers. and
while he held his position no one in North
Platte was ever convicted of violating the
Slocum law.

Henry M. Lewis of the Contemporary
Tub in Madison having contended that
hydrophobia is extremely rare in the far
east wrote to S. S. Cox minister to Turkey
who in turn obtained an opinion from
DR.. John Patterson one of the most prom
inent English physicians in the Orient
DR.. Patterson reports that cases of rabies
are very rare, and accounts for it by the
fact that the animals there live nearly in
their natural state, that is, in the open
air and sunshine, and are not overfed
and pampered. The doctor also found
this to be true in the polar regions,
though the dogs there are exposed to
much hardship and privation.
