GLOBE CLOTHING HOUSE, Elk ST., SehOme


Six small boys in row stood in East
Broadway, few feet from the car track,
the other evening. There was an expires
sion Of angelic innocence on their faces, and
they were looking intently at the stars.
One of them held in his hand, behind his
back, piece Of telegraph wire bent into a
hook The other end of the wire was fast
ened, as If by accident, 10 a battered milk
can. Along came car and passed the
boys, and the looks of innocence vanished.
With a grin on his face the boy with the
hook sneaked after the car and annexed
the milk can to the bottom of the dash
board. There was humping rafting
sound as the can was dragged over the
rough stones, and the boys roared with
delight.
Then the conductor, with an evil look in
his eye, bent low over the dashboard to
seize the hook In doing so the lower part
of his coat tapped over the iron rail, and a
pocketful of dimes and nickels rolled out
and scattered along the track. With a
painful oath he jumped up straight and
pulled the bell. Then, while the passen-
gers laughed and the small boys danced
with glee at a respectful distance, he jump
ed off and started TO collect his coins. He
had to consult the register in the car and
count all the money there was left in his
pockets, and when he had picked up all he
| could fint he was twenty cents short. Then
/ the car started again. This is merely an
/ incident in the life Of conductor New

The Bad Blue Jay.

Like some persons that you and | have
known the beauty of the blue jay is his
only attraction. His habits are singular,
and he does not walk in the ways of right
eousness nor in the paths of peace. He is
a regular dude, a smart, disagreeable tat
tier, an overbearing bully, a murderer, a
robber and a petty sneak thief all com
bined. Yet he seems to be supremely happy
all the time; perhaps it is because he has
no conscience.
1t may have been these vicious traits Of
the blue jay that gave rise to curious
legend among the colored people of the
south that this bird owes to the devil one
days work in each week, and that at pre-
cisely one minute past 1 O'Clock every Fri
day morning all the jay birds start for the
lower regions to render the service due to
their master.
OF course this is only a fancy which
/ sprang from the dreamy brain Of the negro,
| yet many close observers of nature will tell
you that blue jays are rather scarce on
| Friday. Do you ask why' That is a
conundrum that | cannot answer.-Phila-
| delphia Times.

1T NEARLY BROKE OFF THE MATCH.
Yet Toms Mothers Advice Was Good,
and Mrs. Tom Is $50 Ahead.


Just before the charity ball last winter
a certain young South Slider was paying
such assiduous attention to certain
North Side woman that Mrs. Grundy had
it they were engaged. The young wom-
an. of course, knew better, but she did
not think matters had progressed to the
point where he was sure to ask her to go
to the ball. So she declined two invita-
tions from other admirers. The invita-
ton she wanted never came. Her par
ents were not society people, and she had
to stay at home He didn't go either.
The next time he called she was chilly.
The threatened storm blew over, how
ever, though nothing was said on either
side about the ball, and the other day
they were married. They did not take a
wedding trip, but went at once to their
modest little home.
The next day the young husband great
ly surprised his bride by taking sealed
envelope from his pocket and throwing
it in her lap. 1t was addressed to her.
"Open it, honey" said he, sit belongs
to you"
"HoneA" opened it, and found twenty
five dollars and the following memo
/ randum:

"Why, Tom" said she, what on earth
does this meanT

OF course she protested that she didn

taking the twenty five dollars all right.

What 1t Costs to smoke.

DIR. F. B. Nofsinger, Kansas City's
postmaster, does not smoke very much,
but he has nevertheless sent number of
greenbacks up in clouds during the past
30 years. The doctor is a comfortable
sort of man and likes to enjoy the good
things going. He does not smoke more
than five cigars day-he thinks more
might be injurious to his health. This
makes total of $50 per month, or 1900
in year, which number multiplied by
80, the number of years the doctor has
been given to the weed, gives grand
total of $4,000. These cigars retail at
10 cents apiece, but DIR. Nofsinger buys
them by the hundred and in that way the
expense is but cents to the unit. At z
cents apiece the 200 cigars smoked in
80 years would cost $3.50. Had these
been purchased at 10 cents apiece, the ex-
pense would have been $5,400. And in
consideration of the fact that the post
master is pretty good kind of fellow,
he must have given away about 81 900
worth. Rather snug sum of money,
the moderate smokers cigar bill for 80
years. Kansas City Times.

because am too tired to entertain him
as he should be entertained. Then there
is the trouble with the children. My
oldest daughter, wi en- she came out Of
boarding school and made her debut, as
they call it, conceived a notion that she
was thereafter to be the head of the

made up my mind that my younger

to do that with the examples which they
see about them with their mates. / do
not see, however, any relief from this,
unless we stay in the country all the year
around, and that would be dismal. More
over, among my acquaintances are many

social customs of this city.

social season with success is the presence
of competent housekeeper who will re-
