Brotherly Affection.

From the Washington Post.
Gen. Dan Macauley of New York has been
here for some time looking after the interests
of the Nicaragua Canal Company. His jolly
face and big upright figure, have become
familiar to all the freQuenters of the capitol in
the last four weeks A gentleman, who has an
acquaintance of long standing with Gen. Mac
auley, was relating story about him day or
two ago. The affection that exists between
Dan Macauley and his brother john is very re
markable,' said he. THEY are devoted TO each
other. John runs Macauley's theater in Louis
vile. and Dan is as well known in the west as
ne is in the home of his adoption-New York.
There was a strong Illustration of the warmth
of the love of these brothers a few years ago
Dan and Jack were in the same town. can not
at this time recall the name of the place Some
one offended Dan and he was obliged for bust
ness reasons, to Leave town without obtaining
satisfaction. The grievance ranked in bis
bosom, however, andat the first place where
the opportunity offered, he telegraphed back to
his brother: Please lick - for me- Dan. ;
LAS soon as possible after receiving the mes
sage Jack started ont to find the offender. He
found him, and without any argument he pro-
ceeded to lick him in the most approved
fashion. As no limit had been placed on the
operation or its character or extent, he gave
main him, but was guaranteed to leave him
in a very sore condition for good period
When the operation was concluded the victim
asked in grieved tone:
What did you attack me for?'
u don't know, said Jack. You'll have to
ask Dan
If that record of brotherly affection has ever
been beaten I would like to know by whom -
said the story-teller.

How Hermann Catches Sparrows.
From the Washington Post.

Last week Hermann, the magician, was
standing with half dozen gentlemen near one
of the trees in front of Willard hotel The
branches we're full of chattering English SPAR
rows. Said Mr. Hermann: II cut zis from a
newspapaire about how to eat re sparrow; and
he read as follows:
Take fat little bird by the beak. sprinkle a
little salt over it, take out the gullet, put the
bird cleverly into your mouth, bite him off close
to your fingers and chew him manfully; the
result will be an abundance Of juice to envelop
the whole organ, and you will enjoy a pleasure
unknown to the vulgar. Frogs legs Blue
Points, Little Neck clans, terrapin. plover.
according to this description, if once placed on
the bills of fare of fashionable cafes
That is very well,' said one of the gentle
men, but how are you going to get the little
rascals? They are too small to shoot, and too
sly and lively to be caught"
ION, you are mistaken. 1t is very easy to
catch re sparrow See, now, catch one. " and
he made grab into the atmosphere. and. sure
enough, got cock sparrow in his hand that
chartered and pecked viciously. Hermann
showed up the plumpness of the little bird to
his staring friends, saying Now, my little
friend, do not hurt me. All, you get awey, -
and the sparrow escaped and flew up to a
limb, where he smootned his feathers and
looked very mad.
Il will catch anodder." said Hermann, and
making another grasp, secured another spar
row. this time a hen.
Presently he let her go, and said: "Now
will try 10 catch two sparrows at one time -
and making CLUTCH took in his han with
two sparroWS in it,
AS he allowed them to escape he remarked
with his honest smile that would take in a
horse-dealer You see, gentlemen, re sparrow
is not hard bird TO catch eef you only knew
how to catch him"
