Daniel in the Lyons Den.

Some years ago poor Irishman living
in Virginia came into possession OF an oil
painting representing Daniel In the
Lions Den, and as the painting was much
admired Pat thought he would travel
about from town to town and exhibit and
explain the historical points of his
picture. He stood before an enlightened
audience and explained as follows:
F, Ladies and gintlemin here is Deniel in
the lyons din, the large Sphace bechune
Deniel and the lyon is the din; they call it
the lyons din because ii was the lyons
residence altogether. Av course the era
tur to the rare is the lyon himself and the
divil in him is rising at the sight of
Deniel and the fact that he had nothing
to ate at all for tin days, do not same to
make him willing TO mind his own bust
ness and lit poor Deniel alone. Thare
sits poor Deniel here, ladies and gintle-
min and there sits the lyon there. The
lyon is not afraid of Deniel, not at all, it
is Deniel that is afraid of the lyon, be-
cause Deniel knows if the lyon was to
bite him he would fale it rale plain. If
Deniel was to escape, the lyon would fale
rale sorry, but Deniel would fale a hape
betther. The longer Deniel remains
the worse tits for Deniel and the betther
for the Lyon. II Deniel should escape,
the Lyon would fale lOike one of us whin
the Chrishtmish churkey shud pity away
from the platoon the table and lave moth
ing but the cranberry sauce and the
plate; av coorse he'd be afther taking the
shutting wud him. Now ladies and gin
tlemin, whin yez presint yerSilves here
chumorrow avenin, I'll explain how De-
mel escaped and whit down to Uncle I'm
erson and bought WATERBURY watch
and gun, for he might mate the same
Lyon again, but not if the time on his
Waterbury watch would prevint, and if ii
should not he would have something wud
him TO make il plisent for the Lyon.

The International and Great Northern
railroad, Familiarity known as the 'In-
ternational Route" was the second to
reach San Antonio, being completed to
this point in 1880. 1t is one of the long
est lines in the state, its main line ex-
tending from Longview through San An
tonic to Laredo, with branches diverging
at variouus points, making total mile
age of 1854. 1t has done much to assist
in the development of that portion of the
state through which it operates, having
on its line Of road the most populous and
progressive cities in Texas, among them
San Antonio, Galveston, Houston, Aus
tin and Laredo. The recent change i'll
its schedule, in connection with the Iron

Ernest DeitZn1ann.

The above named gentleman has been
a thorough, practical cabin-t maker and
general carpenter in San Antonio for the
past eight years, and ranks without a
rival in fine cabinet work. He has
turned out some of the finest store, Office
and barroom furniture ever made i'll the
state, and the point about him is that his
prices are the lowest for the same kind of
work of any in his line in the city. He
can execute any kind of wood work,
guaranteeing to give as neat and hand
some piece Of work as desired. He
makes a speciality of bar furniture, such
as ice chests, beer chests, counters, rail
ings, and every piece of fixtures required
in bar. He is now established at 256
Market street, and asks those desiring
anything in his line to call OH or address
him, and he will give the best work at
the very lowest prices. The LIGHT

THE MAVERICK BANK.

From small savings bank of a few
years ago, Mr.. Sam Maverick has built
hisibank to one of the largest banks
in the south. The idea of savings
bank in San Antonio was never thought
of until Mr.. Maverick started his, As
soon as the people became aware of the
fact that there was bank in the city
which was willing to pay interest for
moneywhich was placed in it for GER
tain length. of time, they came by the hun
dreds to the Maverick bank and placed
their savings there. 1t has proven a
great benefit to the middle classes, and
has instilled in them the idea that the
way to get ahead i'll the world is by &C
cumulating money, no matter how small,
every week or month, and thus we find
hundreds, nay thousands, placing small
deposits every month i'll this bank. One
thing which has made it the place where
the middle classes generally deposit
their money is that Mr.. Sam Maverick,
the proprietor, is the largest real estate
owner of any banker i'll the city, his
wealth in this respect being estimated at
abont two million dollars. This fac
has inspired the confidence of the people,
and any enterprise which Mr.. Maverick
takes hold of is sure to come out away
ahead. He is thoroughly identified with
the prosperity of San Antonio. as may
be seen by the number of enterprises of
which he is president, among which We
may mention the Alamo Brewery, the
Alamo Paint Works, the Alamo Fire
Insurance company, San Antonio Inter
national Fair association, and the large |
Maverick Printing House, of which he is |
sole proprietor.
TSince the above was put into |
type this popular institution has
been forced to make an assignm ent,
Ma. Maverick still retains the conf
dence of the people, as all honest man,
with ample property and every dollar of
the indebtedness " i'll be paid in full.

Smoking Cars.

President Holmes Is running smoking
cars on the State street cable line. That
is, he started to run them, but the women
seem to be running them now. At the
hours when the men are supposed to be
going to and from the business center.
President Holmes tackled extra cars onto
the trains. at certain intervals, and la
beled them smoking cars" The label
was on the outside Of the car, and was
plainly written. but the women did not
see it, apparently. When they started
to board the car the conductor would in
form them that it was a smoker" but
they would pay no attention TO him.
When they took seats inside and saw
men smoking they would call the con-
ductor and complain. His explanation
that ii was smoking car seemed TO have
no weight with them, and they threat
ened to report him. They glared at the
smokers until the latter were shamed
into throwing away their cigars. Now,
the smoking car is only a name. The
women have made the new rule inopera-
tive by their stubbornness. The only
thing left for the smokers is to ''get to-
gether" and smoke the women out. Ev-
cry man who has attended college knows
what smoking out" means, and if the
smokers unite in this movement they
can achieve their rights in spite Of the
cranky females.-Chicag Herald.

such close proximity TO the youCnTui
faces of the pages. When there are few
senators in their seats and the proceed
ings are dull and drowsy the old
man lets his head fall ON his breast. He
appears to be asleep. The boys. lounge
lazily. But pretty soon Senator Ed
munds or Senator Sherman claps his hand
or snaps his fingers. and it is discovered
that if Capt. Bassett has been sleeping
it was with one eye open. He
jumps up pervously, cracks his old fingers
loudly to rouse the drowsy boys, waves his
long arms, and away scamper two or three
little fellows as fast as their nimbbe legs
can carry them. Sometimes disaster fol-
lows this sudden display Of energy. Two
boys heedlessly rush together in the cen
ter aisle, collide and go sprawiing upon
the floor. On such occasions it is inter
esting to watch the faces Of the digni-
fed, elderly senators. They have witness
ed the collision and its results, but they
try to look as if they had seen nothing.
The pages of the senate show won
derful variety of sizes and stages of ma
turity, considering that their ages are
supposed to range between twelve and
sixteen. Some of the little shavers ap-
pear to be no more than eight or
ten, while some Of the larger ones
have faces which indicate that they
are shavers indeed. 1t is here to be
noted that the age Of boy is as IN
certain as that of q woman Or horse.
Much depends upon stature. This Mr..
Barry of whom have spoken was ap-
pointed page to succeed one Ringgold,
who was transferred to the document
room ION account of over age" Later
on Barry and Ringgold became acquaint-
ed, and made the startling discovery
that the former was year and ten
months his predecessors senior. But
Barry was short and Ringgold was tall.
In the house there are thirty-five boys
One is a riding page, one attends to the
telephone in the members lobby, one is
assigned to the press gallery and two
carry cards to and from the ladies' re-
ception room This leaves thirty boys
for service on the floor, and as there are
Il uOZtn tuCIIDtIS W tdCu DON iIlty are
kept pretty busy. Ordinarily the pages
are required to reach the house at 10 in
the morning. They must tidy up each
members desk, file upon it copy of
The Congressional Record and get every
thing in readiness for the days business
Some of the large boys have twenty
members on their list, while the small
chaps have only three or four. Every
boy wants as many members as he
can get, for it is one of the tradi-
tions of the house that at the end
of a session each member must give
his page So or so. In addition to their
salaries of $3.50 day the pages Of both
house and senate pick up many extra
dollars. Besides running all over the
Capitol they are often asked to carry
notes for members to the residence part
of the town, and nearly all of these err
rands are fruitful of tips. Sometimes
these missions are of delicate nature,
and then the rewards are made proper
