L. s. Gentlemen invited to help save
the President and his salary and the
country in general.
Ills late perhaps; but better late
than never, to say that, the Great Spirit
appeared to three of our townsmen, a
lawyer. mason, and bachelor, and told
them that, IN the Spring the Indians
would visit our city, but all the citizens
save these three, had hid where they
could not be found. The mason they
found counting one OF their number
and Immediately scalped him. The
bachelor; they found making pancakes
so straightway he was married to
squaw and his life spared. The lawyer
had run down cellar and stuck his
head into q nail key, (Never stopping
to think that the best part OF the man
was outside of the nall-keg.) The
Indians judging his body by his feet,
fled forthe woods, and touched not one
hair of his head.
(This prophecy, we hope. is untrue
and believe it is, because the mason
and bachelor are both preparing to
leave town soon. and us to the lawyer;
we only say if bis feet are as good or
bad as the Spirit infers they are, he
should fear no danger, especially on
fair footing.-Ed)

HIS BRACELETS.
The Girls Found Out Why the Hand
some Young Man Wore Them.

A very elegantly attired and noticeably
neat young man got into a Fourth
avenue car the other day, says the New York
Star, and at once became an object of
marked interest to party of school girls
that crowded one Of the seats. His slender
and shapely figure, his fair complexion or
his wonderful trousers were any Of them
sufficient to make him an interesting study:
but the girls had observed something about
him that was to them more completely abb
s0rbing than these conventional excellences.
When the nice looking fellow extended his
fare to the conductor a beautiful bracelet of
small fine diamonds fell over the wrist of his
glove. A tremor of surprise shivered over
the school girl party, and this was quickly
followed by an exchange OF eloquent glances
and buzz Of comment.
"Do you suppose his girl gave him that
whispered fairy-like blonde to the brunette
at her side.
."Wel, it isn't likely his father gave it to
him." was the reply !,
well. | just think" said another blue
wear it fer his sweetheart There are men,
you know, who wouldn't wear bracelet for
love. Some fellows don't think 1t manly"
II wonder If he has promised never to
take it off," queried plump mink in the
COLucI,
why, Of course,' answered another.
That's the way you always give a. bracelet.
If you take it off the charm Is broken"
"Those are bright diamonds, aren't they?"
yentured somewhat tragic looking girl
who had not spoken before. "Now. / vent
ure to say that bracelet cost between $500
"Ahi there you are mistaken, my dear
miss" exclaimed the young man, who had
been quietly listening to the conversation Of
the girls. "This handsome article will sell
at retail for the very low price Of 500.
Allow me to pass to you each one of my
business cards. assure you that we sell all
articles of jewelry at much lower figure
than Tiffany or any Of the other big dealers.
Call In at any time and buy a bracelet for
your favorite young man. They are all the
go now, really. Ta-ta, girls"
The young man had been passing before
the girls as he spoke, tossing card in each
lap as he went. When he had supplied all
he minced lightly down the aisle Of the car
to the platform and hoped to the pave
ment.
''Well declarep exclaimed the prettiest
OF the blondes, gasping for breath. "He is
not wearing that bracelet for love at all. he
wants to sell the horrid thing. What dread
fully vulgar men there are In this world"

A WILD WEST SHOW.
Texas Steer on a Rampage In the
Streets of Gotham.

NEW YORK, August IA wild Texas
steer got away from some point on the East
River front at daybreak yesterday. As
result of its subsequent tour one nan lies
now in Bellevue Hospital badly gored, the
steer lies dead in the gutter with police
mans bullet in its brain, and several citizens
are congratulating themselves upon their
agility in climbing elevated railroad pillars.
When it reached Thirty-fourth street the
animal was interrupted in its course by the
strange actions of an intoxicated individual,
who, after imminent danger of d frightful
death by the steers horns, sObered up suffi-
GENTLY to assend an IL" road pillar. The
steer then turned upon an approaching ex-
pult of it, but the horse objected, showed its
disapprobati0n by a kick, and the steer
turned again and speeded down the avenue.
At Thirty-third street Charles Erhardt, an
aged locksmith, who lives in lodging house
at Pell and D0yer streets, stood in front of
the mission of the Madison street church, at
No. 4S0 Third avenue. The butchers cart,
with its occupants, deployed across the
street, heading off the steer at this point.
The animal lodged upon the sidewalk and
pinned the helpless German to the iron cellar
door. The sharp prong Of its left horn rip
ped open his leg and the other was pointing
straight for his vitals.
At this moment Policeman O'Bara reached
the scene. In an instant his pistol was out
and pointed at the beasts head. and in
another instant the steer dropped in his
tracks, dead.
Erhardt was taken to Bellevue, where the
surgeons said that he was very badly
injured.
