Dismayed the Drummer,

From the Brockton, Mass, Enterprise
A Boston cigar drummer, whose residence is
in Taunton, tells story on himself with great
glee. He was in Hartford, Conn.,, one evening
and after lounging about the hotel in disconso-
late loneliness for an hour or two he asked the
clerk if there was anything going on in town.
The clerk suggested taking in masquerade
ball that was in progress The drummer
thought the idea was good one, but he hadn't
any costume. The clerk suggested that he
should borrow the colored porter's overalls and
jumper. black his face and hands and 60. The
suggestion was promptly acted upon, and for
an hour the bogus colored man talked African
English and had high old time among the
masked bellies. Finally the signal to unmask
was given. and when the masks came off a
great wave OF darkness swept over the hall.
Every blessed man, woman and child in the
place was full-bloOded negro! The drummer
cast one panic-stricken look ut the crowd and
then made for the door. When he reached the
hotel he resumed his old-time personality and
set up the wine.

A Good Epigram.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Mr.. Edgar Saltus was in the city last week on
business connected with the publication of his
forthcoming novel. He is a man of striking
appearance and his manner is characterized by
a nameless charm that is compounded of good
breeding and knowledge of the world
In the course of a conversation some one said.
speaking of friend:
IF he were a man of more conscience he
would never do the things he is sorry for, and
If he were man of less conscience he would
never be sorry for things he had DONE
That's good" said Mr.. Saltus, after a mo-
ment. THAT hits off character in a sentence.
If you don't mind think l shall make use OF
it, which is an illustration of one of the many
ways that Mr.. Saltus employs to fill his stories
with terse, crisp epigrams.

COURSE TAKEN BY UNION COLONEL TO SAVE A
LADY FROM ARREST.
From Clermont, :Ohio, Courier
The following story was recently told by our
own Col. Frambes at gathering of soldiers: 1t
was on the Atlanta campaign that he was taken
in by confding foe and cared for, if not ten
derby, most thoroughly. He was one who was
taken to Charleston, s. c., and placed under
the fire of our guns. He related an incident of
his trip TO prison that called forth warm COM
mendation from the comrades. The story went
out to the southern brethren that Yankee
commander had been caught, as the colonel
was commanding brigade when captured, and
the wives and daughters of the chivalry desired
to see him. He sat in the car and declined to
be made a sideshow of. The guard did not
like this exclusiveness, so he punched the
colonel with his bayonet and said, Get up
here and show yourself" The colonel got

was beauty. Soon the officer in charge was
informed of the affair, and at once he sent for
the lady and placed her under arrest. and pro-
posed to take her from her home. She left in
cradle tender babe. She begged to be re-
leased. Col. Frambes asked the guard TO take
the bouquet. 1T was intended for you, any,
way, he said. The guard ''tumbled," and took
the bouquet. The captain was sent for Il

rested lady for giving me a bouquet beg
to assure you that the flowers were for this
guard, and simply held them a moment"
The guard was Intercepted and he said they
were for him. Then the lady was released
and as she passed the prisoner she cast upon
him grateful look that all the years has not
effaced. Clermonters and others acquainted
with Col Frambes will remember that during
the war he was man of deep religious con-
victions, and often led the regimental prayer
meetings, in which also the lamented Chris
Thompson took prominent part. but the pretty
fiction which sent weeping mother back to
her tender babe will doubtless appear to the
recording angel as a brighter and better deed
than the telling of some cold-blooded truths,
without regard to what misery they might en-
tail, for the simple purpose of telling the truth.
The colonel was the bravest of soldiers. and
though he could pray like a parson, he could.

Gen. WilIiamsOn's Good Luck,

From the Troy Times.
Gen. ]. A. Williamson, of Iowa, formerly
commissioner of the land Office, has come into
fortune in rather romantic way. Some
years ago, when counsel for the Atlantic and
Pacific railroad, he declined to prosecute the
bondsmen of man named Casey, contractor
who had failed to come to time. He urged
that Casey, whose honesty was unquestioned
be given a chance to retrieve himself. His plea
was granted, and Casey ultimately completed
the contract and made some money which was
afterward increased by other profitable con-
tracts. Casey has just died. and out of graft
tude left his fortune, said to be $500. 600, To
Gen. Williamson. The latter has hunted uu
some relatives of Casey and generously pro-
vided for them, but handsome balance is lief,
