The Price of q Blank Shot.

"We had," said one of the crowd,
"one of the funniest duels | ever saw
ut college. 1t was put-up job, OF
course. The pistols were not loaded
with ball, but the duelists did not
know that. They stood up like men,
apparently, but one Of them got so
nervous he fred before the word was
given. That placed him at the mercy
of his opponent, who was poor devil
and rather shrewd. AS soon as the
pistol went off the individual who
fired it got utterly scared. The other
stood calm and determined, and pro-
ceeded to take leisurely aim. Don't
shoot ? yelled the victim don't shoot |!
Il believe it is my turn, isn't it? he
asked, and turned to the seconds.
OF course it is go ahead And he
again leisurely covered his man.
Hold on! Hold on! I'll give you
$500 if you won't shoot !! "Tain't
enoughp For Heavens sake I'll
give you $3.50! The man with the
pistol sneered and covered him once
more. How much will you take ?
"A thousand dollars I'll give it.
Put that cursed thing down. And
he paid his little 81, ,OO0."-San Fran

"Oh, nothing" said John.
"What are you packing your trunk

The Man Who Never Forgot a Face.

The passenger who was never
known to forget a face sat down beside
a freckled young man with a sandy
mustache.
"Seems 20 me I've seen you before"
said the never-forget-you passenger.
Possibly" replied the freckled
young man, "my name is Smith, of
Jonesville, Mich"
"What! Smith, of Jonesville."
Eyes, John Smith, of Jonesville."
Did you ever live in Jonesville ?"
"Should say did. Lived there
ten years. Knew l had seen yeu
somewhere before. | never forget a
face. l knew you as soon as l sot
eyes on you. Never forgot face in
my life"
"How long since you left that old
town p
Let me sec 1t was twenty-scven
years last June. That's long time,
amt it ? Hain't been back there since,
but your face is as fresh in my mind
as if it were only yesterday"
"Now this is odd" said the freckl-
ed young man you haven't been in
Jonesville for twenty-seven years. l
haven't been out of it for twenty
seven years, and am just twenty
seven years old. / must have been
born the year you left our town. Do
you still think you remember me ?"
Remember you, lad? Why, l
knew you the second I saw you. l

mind in so solemn q ceremony as
that? No, stree. I never forgot a

Before and Behind the Scenes.

To show more clearly the comical-
tiles and absurdities of stage life, we
cite few incidents of which are the
results of personal observation, and
which, to the unthinking, show the
vast difference between the relations
of professional people before and be-
hind the scenes.
Before the scenes: Hero-For
years l have followed you as the rest
less tiger follows his prey, and now
you must prepare for the just punish
ment which your crimes deserve.
Thus do l bury my knife again and
again in your craven heart-thus do
l satitate my direst vengeance.
villain-With my dying breath l
curse you. tDies).
Behind the scenes: Hero-Say,
Curly, lend me callar button: some
fakir has collared mine.
Villain-That's an old guy. But
here you are. Don't be ashamed to
return it.
Before the scenes: King-Down,
slave, and beg my royal pardon.
Slave-Yes, sir; most humbly do /
crave thy clemency.
Behind the scenes: Slaye-Here; ;
you royal dummy with the tin fake
on, pull off my boots, will you? I
can't stoop over for this pad.
King-Why, cert, Jimmy.
