Ups and Downs of a Supernumerary Who

Ups and Downs of supernumerary Who
Has Been with Mapleson.
Among the curious incidents in Col. Maple
sons memoirs" is the story OF an officer In
the British army, who told the substance Of
HIS down grade career in social position: II
was formerly he said, "a captain in the
regiment, and many time have paid my
six guneas for box at your opera, both in
Edinburgh and in London. Subsequently /
began to take great interest in the turf, and
soon met with heavy losses, which compelled
mo to give various promissory notes. This
at last came TO the knowledge Of my colonel,
who recommended meto leave the regiment
without delay Having nothing TO live upon,
and being fair performer on the cornet-a-
piston, joined travelling circus, and ulti-
mately came across your opera company In
Philadelphia, where was one Of your stage
band. Later on joined psx'ty who were
bound for the diamond fields in South Africa,
where / was most unsuccessful, and had to
work my passage home in sailing ship, till
got to London, where became a supernu-
merary under your management at Drury
Lane. During your third season an aunt of
mine died, and found myself the possessor
of 100000"
my cousin, who was largely interested in
building operations, which he assured me
paid him at least 60 per cent, induced me to
place half my fortune in his speculations
His houses were in tho west part OF London,
which had been considerably overbuilt; and,
being mortgaged they would have been lost
but for my paying away the remainder Of
my fortune with the view Of saving them. In
spite of this the mortgage foreclosed and /
again became q supernumerary, when, in the
mimic fight in the second act Of 'Irovatore,
one of my companions by mere accident with
the point of a spear put my eye out. was
now no longer qualified for engagement even
as supernumerary, and became sand
wich' man. My duties during the last four
and half years have been to parade Bond
street and Regent street, receiving as pay
ment nine pence day"
On my handing the poor man his salary
and settling up, he at first declined to take
the money, saying that l had done him so
many kindnesses at different periods of his
life that now, when I was in trouble myself,
he could not think of taking his weeks pay.

RIGHT of Wnv.

1t is Of course generally understood that
all tho interest that the public owns in the
land over which our highways pass]is simply
the right of way. The land belongs, as it did
before the road was located, to the severa
estates from which it was taken. If at any
time the road Is discontinued, the land goes
back to those estates
Plain as this principle Is, there are curious
questions of right arising from time to time.
An interesting ono came up IN connection
with fishing rights few years ago. An
English road had crossed little stream by a
ford from time so early that no one knew
the beginning of the usage.
In later years when fishing rights became
valuable, the owners OF land along the
stream made its waters private property, as
they had right to do. The ford, however,
belonged to tho public as thoroughfare.
Could tho traveller cast his line for a fish
whilo fpassing through the waters Clearly
this would be an act OF trespass.
But this did not settle oil the points at issue
before tho public yielded. A bridge was built
over tho stream just below the ford. No
formal discontinuance Of the old passage
could, however, be obtained. People con
tinucd to drive through the stream, to the
serious injury Of the fishing rights above and
below.
Naturally tho owners Of tho land tried To
prevent travel through the water 1t was
contended, on tho other part, that the horses
were accustomed to drink on their way by
the ford, and that the bathing of their legs
in tho water refreshed them. These were
held TO be conveniences Of travel, and were
not surrendered by the buildingof the bridge.

The tendency to speeialism.

Here is an old story in point, illustrating
conditions: A certain man, n sort of scientist
after his fashion, found an insect, which in
his crude way he could at once determine to
he beetle. But he wished to know Just what
kind of a beetle that particular one happened
TO be, or in other words, to find out its name
So like good and patriotic citizen, he re-
ferred it TO n speeialist-just as a sensible
miner with broken leg would call in the serv-
ice of surgeon. He went to friend and
said:
"Here's beetle Now you are an ento-
mologist; please tell me what that is"
"Oh, no. said the referee, ~ am not an
entomologist.".
Not an entomologist9 Why, I thought
that was your line"
mo; only wish were," he said, sadly.
"Well, what are youi What do you call
beetle sharp--a coleopterist2"
"No," said he, modetly, and with a depre-
catory air, mo, I'm not coleopterist. II
you insist upon knowing, might claim NOW
Frightening up) to be scarabeist; that is,
you know, altogether different from being
regular coleopterist
1t is not so long ago that single great
mind, like that of Humboldt, could take in
at a single comprehensive glance almost the
sum of human knowledge. There can be no

Restaurant Etiquette.

Keep your hat ON while you eat
Plunge into the butter with your own
knife
Never make more than two bites of a slice
OF bread
Spread out your elbow SO as TO annoy your
neighbor.
The napkin, properly considered, is not a
handkerchief.
II your butter plate is empty dab into the
mans nearest by.
If your waiter is inattentive knock loudly
with your knife on your glass.
Always eat with your knife. Grasp 1t
firmly and sink it into your throat to the
hilt.
Suck your soup slow out OF the spoon. 1t
makes moro noise and attracts attention.
IL you haven't had your hat on, knock
down several hats in taking yours from the
rack.
Don't unbutton your vest. It would indi-
cate that you are addicted TO the bad habit
Of overeating.
Knock over your neighbours trying to reach
for it yourself
Don't forget to pay at the desk. You
might be unable to convince the cashier that
1t was case of mere forgetfulness.
Eat as rapidly as possible, and at every
mouthful scrape the plate with your knife.
IL sets peoples teeth on edge.
If you are pretty well acquainted with the
waiter and tip him occasionally you may be
able to get him to give you twenty cent
check for fifty cent meal.-Atlanta Ameri-

'Amok! Amokr' resounds one morning
through the streets of Malay town In the
Indian archipelago. Men, women and chil1
dren flee in all directions, screaming with
terror; loud cries rend. the air, warning
everybody to be on their guard; the gates of
the large houses are shut and fastened.
"Amok Amok!" shrek the people, as they
trample over each other in their hurry to
save their lives. The alarm spreads far and
wide. The hand of every Malay springs to
the twisted band of his sheath, to draw forth
the dagger that hangs by his side; the police
clutch their weapons; the Europeans seize
their guns; every eye, every nerve is strained
