The whip man catered 10 an older
throng. He was on his wagon aud sur.
rounded by whips that he made himself
Ia Westerly, r. /. He said: I've
sold you whips these many years. and
every year j sell n better class Of whips"
Aud then he would lash q wooden rail
until the splinters few IN all directions.
The whips stood the severe test aud the
farmers bought them as fast as the whip
man could deal them out without inter
fering with his talk. But the institu-
ton that furnished the young farmers

satisfaction for the money was the
Great African Dodger." who stuck his
woolly head through n rent in sheet
and let any one throw base balls at him

All day long a crowd jostled against the
ropes endcavoring to get a show. Balls
went whizzing through the brief inter-
vening space at terrific rate of speed
aud hit the bellying sheet. but none of
them hit the dodgers head. A few
came dangerously near, but were pre-
vented from hitting the mark for which
they were aimed by quick duck Of the
head. The dodger drove his customers
almost wild with his tnunts and his
faces. and every one tried TO take the
energy out of him by disfguring his
face. But II availcd them naught.

THE FAKIR LOSES.

but II didn't The fakir realized that
this play was the turning point IN the
tide OF the old mans mind, and he bent
the frame so that the ball would knock
down the pin. and tho old farmer was
charmed. He had played three times
and won dollar; consequently, he was
seventy cents ahead OF the game. But
he must have more. He swore he
wouldn't stop until he had every dollar
that the fakir had TO spare. The fakir
told him not to, and whispered the in
formation that he had more than he
knew what to do with. The old farmer
then began his reckless play. He stuck
to the fakir with the tcnacity of leech:
but instead Of bleeding the fakir, the
fakir blod him. At odd intervals he
was allowed to make u dollar. but for
every dollar he won he Loaf three. When
he had lost all the handy money that he
had he quit and ambled of to see how
his fat hogs looked beside those Of
competitor.
His place at the ball was taken by q
smooth faced young frrmer, who
knocked the pin down the FIRST time and
skipped with the dollar and a smile Of
satisfaction on his face. He made the
rounds OF the other similar machines,
and tho last time the reporter saw him
he had bought q bundle OF children's
toy whips and had turned fakir himself.

One Way TO Tell Happy Pair.

There is nothing that the average
bridegroom so much desires 10 avoid
as disclosure of the fact of his recent
marriage. Not that he is at all ashamed
OF 1t. Oh, no! But there is a shyness
about him which induces him TO con-
ceal the fact. This is shown especially
at the bridegroom's first visit 20 the
hotel on his bridal tour.
The other evening a young man
walked briskly up TO the desk in one
of the hotels in this city. and. with a
very badly assumed air OF nouchal-
ance, registered MIR. and Mrs. -"
A room was assigned him. and when
he WAS out of hearing the clerk leaned
over the desk, aud, conidentially
speaking to several acquaintances
standing there, said:

man register Mr.. and Mrs. It's al
ways so-and-so and wife. You Just

made one or two desultory remarks
which caused crowd to collect, when
