A Draurhtsm ans Dilemm..

In the Office of prominent architect
in Chicago one of the draughtsmen is
young man who came here from Troy,
N. Y. He lives at pension on Wabash
avenue. One evening during cold snap
he had occasion to escort a young lady
to her home on Thirty-fifth street, and as
affairs with them had reached the stage
where it is pleasant to be alone together,
they walked. The girl was well bundled
up, but the young man was not dressed
for extremely cold weather, and when
they reached their destination he found
that his left ear was frozen stiff.
The next day he appeared at the Office
with his ear poulticed and bandaged.
His employer noticed his condition and
remarked upon the extraordinary devo-
tion to duty he displayed. The young
man was greatly pleased, and for five
minutes quite forgot the pain. After he
had been at work for an hour or so he
found that his head was irresistibly
pulled sideways by the weight of the
bandage, and that it was impossible to
keep it squarely on his shoulders. But
he went on with his work
Next morning his employer was any
thing but gracious and informed him
that all of the previous days labor would
have to be done over again, for all the
lines were out of drawing and the houses
leaned perceptibly to the north north
west. The young man attempted to draw
the front elevation of a house, but found
that he could not draw a perpendicular
line, and that the horizontal lines would
not lie fat. He couldn't account for
this phenomenon until one of his fellows
suggested that the bandage on his left
ear, which pulled his head over toward
his left shoulder, was the cause of it.
The young man thought the explana-
tion plausible. What did he do? Did
he lie off until his ear got well? No.
That evening he called upon the young
lady, induced her to go out for walk,
and left his right ear exposed to the
chilling blast. When he reached home
he found that he had accomplished his
purpose, and that the other ear was
frozen as hard as rock. After that he
had no difficulty with his houses. es.-Chi-

this is undoubtly due to the track. The

California horses carried off the hon.
ors at Washington Park yesterday. Yo
Tambien upheld the reputation she
established at the meeting of the Blood
Horse association at San Francisco, and
showed her true form. The speedy q
year-old filly was clearly out of condi-
tion when she started at st. Louis. She
had apparently not rounded to after the
long journey across the Rockies. Yo
Tambien is herself once again, and there
is no filly, east or west, that has any
license to beat her. She is by Joe
Hooker out of the celebrated brood mare
Marian, and is in consequence a half
sister to Emperor Of Norfolk, Ell Rio
Rey and Rey Del Rey.
In the mile and quarter this state
furnished the first and second horse.
Homer appears to be in good form, but
is not as good colt as Rinfax, who is
in the same stable,

WEST WILKES.

The Game Little Filley Beaten BY a
Combine.
Many gentlemen interested in trotting
in this city will remember West Wilkes,
four-year-old stallion by Simmons,
who was wintered at the Los Angeles
track. He was very symmetrical and
handsome black horse, but trifle un-
dersized. He recently started at the
Rushville meeting in the 2:28 class.
There were nine starters and the race
was sensational one, taking seven heats
to decide. West Wilkes won the second
and third heats in 2:2214 and 2:23 re-
spectively, but was finally beaten by
Elko. In justice to West Wilkes it
should be stated that every horse in the
race had tilt at the little fellow, there
being combine against the gallant son
of Simmons. The fastest heat in the
race outside of West Wilkes was 2:2334.

Points for Young Mariners.

A grizzled individual in the attire of a
farm hand prowled along the docks all
day. With all his rusticity of attire
there was tinge of tar and bilge water
about him that added to his swagger
and stamped him Enthusiastically as son
Of the sea. His movements attracted
considerable attention as he boarded
vessel after vessel and inspected the
pumps and then whistled for the ships
dog. His cruise extended from the sea
wall to Harrison street, and it was at
this point that he was accosted by one
of Franklin's runners
want to ship, old man?' he asked, as
the stranger climbed down from the top
sides of the Lady Cairns.
"Yes, I'm going to sea again. was the
reply, accompanied by the observation
that ranching was not what it was
cracked up to be.
"rl get you good ship" suggested
the runner.
"Well, you needn't bother. I've been
to sea for forty years, and mebbe knows
enough to pick out ship for myself"
"What are you looking for?'
"A fat dog and rusty pump bolt, you
bloody lubber What do you 'spose I'm
looking for2"
"Come and have drink" suggested
the runner, who was anxious to learn
the connection between fat dog and a
rusty pump bolt and a desirable ship.
"Well, lads, I'll tell you," said the in
innate friend of Neptune, "and you
want to remember this, because TIL be
useful some day. It took me many
years to larn it, but it's yours for the
sake of your kindness. Mark what old
George Palmer tells you-when you
want to ship look for fat dog; that
means the old man is liberal with his
duff and you'll be well fed Look for
rusty pump bolt, cause that means that
the craft is right and tight and the crew
don't have to break their hearts and
backs keeping her dry. If the pump
bolt is worn and shiny look out, lads,
for she's sieve, and your watch below
will be spent in keeping her hold dry"

WELL MATCHED MEN.

Joe Soto and Hergitt Matched to Twenty
Rounds.
Sometime next month Joe Soto and
Professor Hergitt of the Athletic club
will engage in astwenry round set-to for
the amusement of the members OF the
Athletic club. The agreement calls for
catch weights. The men signed articles
yesterday. Soto at one time was the
featherweight champion of the coast but
it is doubtful whether he can ever re-
duce enough to fight in that class. Her
gift is aIyounger brother of young
Mitchell, the middleweight champion of
the coast. The men will probably strip
at about 130 pounds. There will not be
the difference in the weight one would
suppose after looking at both men. 1t
should be great contest as both men
are clever and scientific. The winner is
to receive $3.50 and the loser $50.
