huge building covering several acres and
containing the overflow exhibits from ma

While in Topeka, Kan, last week, !
Witnessed singular exhibition of
nerve Oh the part of tramp, said a
commercial traveller the other day. A
rather seedy looking individual entered
o restaurant at which ! was dining and
ordered very elaborate meal. After
eating it with great relish he took his
check, walked to the cashiers desk,
and coolly informed him that he had
no money. The cashier put his hand
to shelf under the desk, produced a
pistol, and ordered the man to pay.
"What's that? ?" the tramp asked,
pointing to the pistol.
"That, sir" answered the cashier,
"is a revolver.
An expression of relief came over
the mans face as he replied:
ooh, I don't care a straw for re-
volver! I thought it was stomach
pump. Good afternoon"
And he walked out and disappeared
around the corner before the aston
ished cashier could rally from his sur
prise.

Punishment for Stealing in Tansier.

A New Yorker who has spent some
years at Tangier, the quaint old sea-
port of Morocco, and who returned to
find the newspapers more than ordina-
rily full of the misdoings Of bank and
trust company officials, thinks it is
fortunate for the offenders that they
did not operate in that African town.
"They don't mince matters over there, :"
he says, for man who loses sight Of
the distinction between his own prop
erty and some one else's. When q
thief is caught in the most trivial
offense he is told to hold up his hands.
Then they ask him which hand he
would like to keep. When he has
made his choice they cut off the other.
This naturally creates a prejudice
against kleptomania in its various
forms. / don't quite know what they
would do with bank officer who got
his clutch on a million, but I guess
they would save the hand with its con-
tents and throw the rest of him to the
sharks.-NeU York Times.

Her Grave.
Mrs. l.. J. Beard, New York bust
ness woman ard a most patriotic
American, has been empowered by
Mrs. John t. Goolrick, President of
the Mary Washington Monument As
ISOLATION, of Fredericksburg, Va, to
take steps toward the raising of fund
to aid in the erection of new monu-
ment to be placed over the grave of
Mary Washington, the mother of George
Washington, OF Fredericksburg. The
present monument was erected many
years ago, and has not only never been
finished but has fallen into partial de-
cay. The patriotic feelings of the
ladies of Virginia became aroused over
this fact some time ago, and the pres
ent association was formed for the pur-
pose of erecting a new monument.
Mrs. Boards plan is to have large

For the rain, don't forget,

And boiled be your blood

reply the darky received.
"What am cheese wuff, boss ?"
"Ten cents.
After a moments hesitation the man
turned to the grocer and said: "Massa
White would you frow in few crack

Certainly, SAM" was the reply.
After producing the dime the sable
son of ETHIOPIA took the cheese (?) and
the crackers and sat down outside the
store to have feast. He spread the
stuff on good and thick and seemed to
relish it very much. After watching
him for time the drummer and the
merchant went out and said to him:
~How does it go, Sam? p |
