The silent Club.

"A queer club was once established In
London, under the title OF the Silent
Club. The members were bound to
express themselves Mt all club meet
ings, as far as possible, without words.
The first rulo of the club was: ..The
members OF this Academy shall think
much, write little, and DO as mute Ms
they can"
On one occasion new candidate ap-
piled for admission. But the members
were limited and all vacancies filed.
A meeting was called, the candidate
was to be introduced, and the Posi-
dent was to announce his decision.
When the gentleman entered, the
members, who were oil his friends,
were as much disappointed as he that
he was to be refused. AS he APP
preached the President rose, and 81
lently handed him a cup OF water, so
full that single drop would have
made it overflow.
The applicant perfectly understood
what the President meant, but he was
courageous and quick witted. With
out speaking, he took from his button
hole single rose and laid 1t gently
on top OF the water. He laid 1t on 30
softly that not drop was displaced,
and handed 1t back to the President
with bow.
With one consent the members ap-
plauded. They resolved to put their
rule aside. ana to admit the man who
showed them that he could ornament
their society without hurting it.
Then the man thanked tnem in an
equally curious way. When the reg
lister was handed to him to be signed
he wrote below his name the number
OF the club members-100. He added
before IL 40, making it 0100. IN
derneath he wrote: Their value will
be the same"
The man was SO modest that the
President complimented him imme-
diately by rubbing out the 0 and sub
shutting the figure 1. This made the
lumber HOO. Underneath he wrote:
Their value will be increased eleven
times"
These ingenious people must have
devoted great deal OF time and
thought to avoid using their tongues.

Cunning Wolves.

John Mumford, whose ranch is on
the north fork OF Red River. tells OF u
case which shows that wolves have
instincts little short OF reasoning
powers. A sow with a dozen pigs
was down in draw leading to the
rivor one morning, and Mumford
heard terrible row down there. He
went to see what the trouble was and
saw a wolf go galloping away. He
returned to his pillow. After while
the noise began again. This time he
saw the wolf had returned with its
consort. The mother made mock
but apparently ferocious attack on the
old SOW. The SOW, with bristles up
and mouth open. rushed at the moth
err wolf, who retreated slowly and
with much swapping OF jaws and
many snarls.
While this was going on the male
wolf quietly slipped around to the
drove OF little grunters, and picking
up one in his mouth cantered off cas-
lily. He did not kill It at once; he
simply carried it loose in his mouth
and with his head over his shoulder
as IL he was either enjoying the fun
his consort was having with the SOW
or expecting something else. Mean
time the young pig was squealing for
help at the top OF its voice. Leaving
the she wolf, the old SOW made rush
to save the captured pig. and at that
the she wolf dashed at the other little
pigs. caught one, and then the two
wolves fed at the top OF their speed.

THIEVES AFTER HAY.
They Commence DepredatlOns on BIZ
gers Barn.


EDITOR TRIBUNE:
Since the Westside COW question has
been settled, the inhabitants of that rustic
neigborhood have been pining for some lit
tie excitement to while away the long and
weary evenings. Some two weeks ago a
whist club was formed, and succeeded for
time. Then the neighborhood decided to
attend Keene's performance of Richard
Ill, and went home on Friday even
/ ing to dream of all sorts of dread
full blood curdling deeds. But things
reached climax Saturday evening.
Mr. Bilger had been out to supper
and on coming home Immediately retired,
but was soon awakened by noise in the
barn. Mr.. Bilger took the part of Keene.
sisted Of a macintosh coat and straw hat,
hehastened to his post on the fence oppo-
| site the barn., accompanied by a shotgun
/ slightly out of repairs. Somebody has
tened to the residence of B. G. Armstrong,
where admittance was demanded in heavy
dramatic tones. B. G. Armstrong at that
moment was dreaming of the duel scene in
Richard the Ill, and his sword being in
| the wood shed he quietly got out Of bed
and hid himself in the bath
tub. p, j. Armstrong being naturally
of a bold and warlike nature (having on
! a previous occasion had occasion to crawl
under the bed to keep himself from laying
hands on the enterpFising burglary hastily
! completed his toilet and with steady voice
demanded, ''What wilt thou?n The mes.
senger, who was lady, explained that he
must cross the river for assistance with all
possible speed. He grabbed his staff, took
both his rheumatic feet and proceeded tc
| police headquarters at a 5:15N gait, having
to halt every 20 seconds to push his heart
down to its original quarters. On reaching
the City Hall Capt, Andrews Immediately
summoned two of his men, and arriving al
the Bilger residence they spied the ewould.b be
Keene, sitting at the butt end of corn col
pipe still grasping his blunderbuss. After
carefully searching the hay and some
i empty grain bags, Capt. Andrews succeeded
in making Mr.. B. believe the villain haC
got tired Of waiting and had gone home
MIR. Bilger retired for the night, the palice
| promising to guard the house till day
break. One bale Of hay was stolen. InYi
tations will be issued to intimate friend,
for the next performance.

APPEALING JAPANESE.
Prospects of Delay = Rev. DR..
Hatch's Ubiquity.

A stay of proceedings for five days was
granted yesterday by the United States
Circuit Court in the cases of the four JAP
anese women in order, thar Attorney Mowry
might appeal to the Superintendent of In
migration, Washington, d. C. Inspector
of Immigration, Rev. DR.. Junius Laertus
Hatch, had taken them under his fatherly
care-two Of them being allegedly MS con-
verts-,o put them on the Beglc for trans
poltation to the Flowery Kingdom.
The Belgic left yesterday afternoon, but
the japanese didn't, and wont until the Su-
perintendent of Immigration has passed
upon the virtues OF their cases. Even then
the cases may be appealed to the Treasury
be averse to their landing, and if that is not
enough to take them out of the Inspectors
care the appeal may be repeated to the
United States Supreme Court on the grounds
OF the unconstitutiOnality of the anti-Chi-
nese-Jabanese law. By this process At
torney MOwry will have three more appeals.
Considerable dissatisfaction has been ex-
pressed on the subject of the lie yerend In
spector's ubiQuity. He has no office, though
he is supposed to be easy Of access. No one
seems to know at the Custom-liouse where
he may be found. Before being appointed
he had an office in the Chinese Bureau, but
that place Knows him no more. He had not
been seen before last evening for about two
weeks-not since the United States Circuit
Court upheld Commissioner" Thofnley's
decision relative to the japanese women.
DR.. Latch Endorsed this decision on his
entry upon the duties of his office. and it
has proved the only important case he has
had. He got 1t by inheritance.
