A Broadway Incident. =

1t was desperately hot, and the little
woman yesterday afternoon trudged
painfully up the west side of Broadway
under her burdens. These were a huge
bundle. apparently of clothing, which
she held under her right arm. while in
her right hand she carried big tin can
that could hold a gallon. On her left
arm, resting against her shoulder, was
a well-grown child, showing great ex-
haustion from the heat. Calmly saunt-
ering in front of her, smoking his pipe,
with his hands folded behind him, while
he leisurely gazed at the wonders about
him, was strong, sturdy man. The
couple were husband and wife.
Policeman 1.422 saw them coming
along. His face darkened with an omi-
nous scowl, and. striding up to the
man, he took him by the shoulder,
wheeled him about, and. taking the
child out of the mothers arms, made
him carry it, and then put the big can
into the mans hand. The fellow
grinned and made motion as if to rid
himself of the child and only carry the
can, but Policeman 1.422 by determined
gesticulation gave him clearly to under
stand that he meant business. The little
woman at first looked startled, but as
she realized the situation she gave the
gray-bearded blue-coat smile of
thanks, and the crowd that had gather
ed applauded him enthusiastically.
'.Men like him shouldn't be permitted
to come to this country at all, mutter-
ed big-hearted No. 1,422 as be mopped
his brow and looked daggers at the
Polish immigrant why" said he to an
inquiring by-stander. lit was only yes
terday that a wee bit of woman came
along here with trunk on her back,
and the loafer of husband was walk
ing at her side smoking big pipe as
quietly as you please and not giving her
a hand. Did [ make him help? Well,
/ should smile" and No 1,422 stepped
into the gutter to give bis hand to an
old man on crutches who was crossing

ireland He spoke of the Home Rule
bin with understanding, and showed
! wherein the woes of Ireland would be
alleviated were it to be accepted by
Parliament. His conclusion, as indeed
his whole speech, was magnificent. Five
large, handsome boquets were his re.
ward, and the congratulations OF all
who could find an opportunity to grasp
his hand.
Miss Annie L. Talbert of Memphis,
next spoke. Her subject, Portia, the
fair, sweet woman in Shakespeare
Merchant Of Venice, whose hand was to
be given TO that suitor who drew her
portrait from one of three easkets. Miss
Talbert did splendidly. Not only was
the matter of her speech well written
and adjusted, but she succeeded in gain
ing the attention Of her hearers and
making herself understood throughout
the house
When Mr.. J. H. Watson came to the
front to discourse upon Cardinal Wolsey,
he gave promise of equaling, If not sur
passing those who had gone before him,
but unfortunately his memory failed,
and not being able TO recall his speech,
after pause took his seat. 1t should
b. said, however, that so much of his
address as was delivered, was not sur
passed by any of the evening. Mr..
Watson was universally liked by his
classmates, and had their profoundest
sympathy He was the last speaker.
Prof H. A. Dean then conferred the
degrees. Sixteen students receiving the
degree of Bachelor of Didactics; twelve,
that of Bachelor of Science. We must
not omit to mention the music with
which the audience was regaled during
the intervals between speakers. 1t was
excellent. >. ID.

This is how an old gentleman proved
to his son that he was not SO old as his
father. The father had bought door
yard horse" good-looking enough. but
worthless as a roadster. He wanted to
get rid of him, and so one day he put a
brad in the end of his whip and started
for his sons. As he drove into the son S
dooryard he stuck the brad into the
horse. knocked off his hat with his own
hand. came up to the door flying and ap-
parently out of breath. The son stepped
to the door. Father, what have you
got there?" he asked. Il have got the
Devil, and wish somebody had him;
he has about pulled my arms out of the
sockets. He is worth 81 900 to any man
if he can drive him. but have got to be
too old TO drive such horse as that.
After the old man had been rubbed with
liniment. and before he went off, his son
offered to swap nice $400 horse for the
puller and to give 500 boot. The old
gentleman traded. had some more lini-
ment rubbed on his shoulders, and drove
away. Three weeks later the father
visited his son again. The father said
to his son: '.How do you like your new
horse, George?'' Father. how could
you lie to me as you dida'' did you
know you were not SO old as your father

| she took the seat the third back from

sat opposite to her. As soon as the coach
