APRIL FOOL JOKES.

Good Hoax on the People of Pittsburgh,
and Another Played in London.
On 1st of April some forty years
ago, advertisements appeared in the
morning newspapers of Pittsburgh an
nouncing that at three o'clock that
afternoon the inventor of a new flying
machine would give a public exhibit
ton OF the practically Of his inven-.
ton. He would fly from one of the
Allegheny river bridges to another.
/ over the middle of the stream. Long
/ before the hour set for the novel ex-
hibition, both the bridges and the
banks of the river between them were
densely crowded by men, women and
children, all excitedly eager to see the
flying man. But the only flying done
was by frightened goose that some
body liberated from the middle of the
upper bridge little after four o'clock,
until which time the crowd had. with
tolerable patience, waited. The bird.
alarmed by the roar of the multitude
that greeted it. few swiftly down the
beyond the Point" where it was lost
to sight.
Then, all at once, the knowledge
seemed to burst upon the throng that
the whole affair was an april Fool"
joke. and the many. thousands of spec
tators disappeared almost as if by
magic, so in haste were they to get
away from the spot. And that even
ing it was hard to find citizen who
would admit that he had been near the
Allegheny river that day.
Even better than that, as joke upon
popular credulity, was trick perpe-
trated in London no longer ago than
1860. Thousands of persons received
official-looking invitations to be pres
ent on Sunday forenoon. April /, ito
witness the annual ceremony of the
washing of the White Lions in the
Tower" The favored recipients of
these missives were instructed to pre-
sent themselves at the White Gate for
admission. All the forenoon the
streets near the Tower were thronged
by hundreds of vehicles bearing peo-
pie in quest of the White Gate
Finally. somebody little less thick
witted than the rest of the crowd re-
membered that there was no White
Gate to the Tower; that there were no
white lions, and that ceremonials I'M
der Governmental auspices on Sunday
were at least wildly improbable. Like
an electric shock his reflections flashed
through the thropg of ceremony seek
ers, and their recognition of the fact
that they all were April fools" sent
them scurrying away in angry haste.

Frisco Line to 81. Louis and the East.


The st. Louis & San Francisco railway
is now the only line running Pullman
Palace sleeping cars from Wichita to st.
Louis without change; and in addition to
this service they also run elegant free re-
clining chair cars and handsome day
coaches between the two mentioned cities.
The Frisco line is the shortest and
quickest line under one management be-
tween Wichita and St. Louis, and has for
years furnished to its patrons an unsur-
passed through. train service, not being
dependent upon connecting lines to make
through route as is the case with other
lines, consequently the delays so vexatious
to travellers are not encountered. Only
one change of cars to Boston, New York
and other principal intermediate cities.
