A Hebrew who owns small cloth

down town last Saturday to make a
few purchases, and during the after
noon he dropped in a jobbing house
where he buys his furnishing goods.
One of the clerks told him to pick out
necktie, saying that the house was
giving each of its customers one as a
holiday gift. The Hebrew said he
thought he should have something
better than that. aud the clerk repeat

amusing story about a prominent instr-
aDce agent who has q monopoly of the
Chinese insurance business in this city
He went to a laundry and got the Mon

wealthy Chinese m rchants were given
as references. When the circular has
beer photo engraved and reduced to a
size convent for printing on an ordinary
business card, the insurance agent show
ed one of his Chinese friends copy.
"Melican piinter no goode. He spellee
my name wlong," said the Monaghan mer-
chant. "Do you knowthat my Chinese
friends family pride was injured" said
the insurance agent. cit seems that All
Sooy is the Chinese synonym for Smith
and the merchant spelled his name
Smyth. The Chinese Smytbs with "
have very ancient pedigree and my
friends feelings were injured by being
classed with the Smiths who spell their
name with an i. New York Star.

The Doors Bothered Him.

An elderly man, well but rather
somberly dressed, crossed Park row
from the post-office one afternoon re-
Gently and headed for hotel near
Broadway. His progress was slow
and eccentric, but he soon found him.
self in front of his destination. 1t hap
pens that this hotel has two entrances,
within few feet of one another, and
much alike in appearance.
The wayfarer paused in front of one
door, slowly read the inscription upon
it, and. with satisfied smile, started
to enter. But the smile quickly faded
away, for as he took the first step he
caught sight of the other door. He
hesitated moment and then walked
over to the second entrance. There he
balanced himself carefully and smiled
once more as he spelled out the sign,
but again the smile disappeared as a
furtive glance showed him the first
entrance still in good and regular
standing.
The pilgrim backed out to the curb
and studied the situation. Beyond
question he could see two doors at
once and the fact seemed to annoy
him. After little reflection an idea
struck him. He covered one eye with
his hand and slowly turned his head,
bringing one door into range and then
the other. Next he took out pair of
glasses, carefully wiped them, and put
them on, but still both entrances APP
peared as plain as ever. His ingenuity
was batfled and he had to seek outside
assistance.

A Story About George W. Peck.

There was "a good story of George
w. Peck told the other day at the
time when he was acting chief of police
of La Crosse. There was a hard
character in the city, Tom Mulcahy.
of pounding his wife. Tom would 60
downtown, have some fun with the
boys, get full, then come home and
give his poor wife a pounding. The
evenings sport ended in free fight
with the police and Tom in the Gala
boose. These wife-beating entertain
ments usually occurred along in the
morning from l to 3 o'clock. Any
where between those hours Peck was
likely to be routed out to go down and
arrest Tom Mulcahy for beating his
wife. This sort of thing went on for
some time. Then Peck became tired
of getting out in the cold from warm
bed. One day down he went to where
Tom was working. Tom was at a
bench when Peck walked in with a
CHEEKY salutation. Tom looked at him
suspiciously, half expecting a sum-
mons to 90 to the calaboose. 'No,
I'm not after you this time, Tom,"
said Peck. 81 just thought would
come down and see if couldn't enter
into an agreement with YOU" "What
is it sor?" cautiously replied Tom.
.'Well, you know you are in the habit
of beating your wife" The big Irish
man nodded. Now, l don't object to
that especially. OF course you have
to have little fun once in awhile. but
| want to see if you will not do it aL.ttle
earlier. go to bed at half-past 8
every night. 1t isn't pleasant to be
pulled out of bed along about o'clock
to come down and help arrest you.
What want to do is to arrange with
you so that when you feel like pound
ing your wife you will do it before o.

ductory was study. At last he broke
out with: "Mr. Peck, it's the gintle-
man We are. I'll do it, A solemn
hand-shake ratified the agreement.
Now understand, Tom, you agree to
do all that sort of thing before $50,
said Peck, as he opened the door. Il
do, sor. III remember" A few
| nights afterward, just as Peck had
| reached home policeman came run
| ming up, crying: ''Chief, Tom Mulcahy
is pounding his wife," Peck slipped in
| to his overcoat and went down to the
Mulcahy residence. There was Tom,
the worse for liquor, and in one corner
his wife, trying to save herself from
another attack. A soon as he caught
sight of Peck Tom yelled. "Its me-
sclf's lived up to the agreement

a Woman's Pride.

Last Monday evening a man and
woman were walking together on
Hyde street, says the San Francisco
E1Hn1t'ie'- The man, who is sort of
curbstone real-estate broker, was tall
and rather handsome. His wife was
pale and delicate-looking. She was
pleading with him to come home.
The man, with hoodlum swagger,
affected to ignore her.
She pleaded harder, and the man.
annoyed by her persistence, snarled:
''Git home"
She renewed her pleading, and laid
her hand caressingly on his coat
sleeve.
He struck ii away, and, Selling his
wife by the throat, shook her savage
ly.
ooh, Phil! How can you treat me
sop sobbed the woman
The man struck her in the face by
way of answer.
Then he lifted his cane. She cow
cred away from it, but he brought it
down sharply on her shoulders. He
followed the blow up with a vicious
push that sent her to her knees upon
the steps of residence.
"Oh, my hearth exclaimed the
woman, pressing one hand to her
bosom. Then she fell unconscious.
Without another look at his pros
trate wife, the man walked off twirl-
ing his mustache and ogling couple
OF girls who were passing on the other
side of the street.
A lady passing saw the PROSTATE
form on the steps and rang the door
bell. The lady of the house, the wife
of Deputy Tax Collector Marion VII
son, opened the door, and the uncon-
scious woman was carried into the
house. A physician was summoned,
and she was soon strong enough to
speak.
Il am sorry that you were inconven-
fenced on my account" she said, look
ing into their faces with all her wom-
ans pride. IL am troubled with

ing spells before. That is all that
