Why Horses Go Lame.

A coachman who is up to the tricks of his
trade tells the Chicago Tribune that there are
more ways than one for an honest coachman to
make a living.
"Of course" he explained, mo boss is goin' to
buy horse without consulting his coachman
If he does that horse will 20 lame, sure
Flows that?"
It'll go lame, sure. and the boss1l have to
sell 1t for what he can get, and lucky if he can
get half the price. Then he won't try to cheat
an honest coachman out of his commission. Not
the second time, see:"
Thereupon the honest coachman explained
why boss" who buys horse without con
sulting the autocrst of his stables is sure to
have lame animal on his hands
ITS this way" he remarked. ANY honest
man as respects himself will pull hair out of
that horses tail and thread it in a needle
Then he'll lift up that front leg of that horse
and 'hunch up in his fingers the skin between
the outer and middle Jendons see? Shove the
needle through, cut off the hair at each end
and let down the foot There's nothing to see
is there?"
Suppose not"
Well, that horseH go lame in twenty min.

Crisp Has the Best Chance.
From the Washington Post und. }

from ire W washington EOSI una.
Congressman TarSney of Missouri has taken
occasion, now that he is in the west again, to
deny the New York interview in which he de-
clared in favor of Gov. Boies of Iowa for Presi-
dent, and against Mr.. Cleveland. Mr.. Tarsney
says that Senator German is very strong in New
York. regards the situation in Ohio as growing
brighter for the democrats every day, believes
Blaine will be the republican nominee and
sums up the speakership situation IS follows
Il believe that Crisp of Georgia has the best
chance Just at present, and 1t begins 70 look
very much as though he would win He will get a
large jority OF the southern congressman, and
besides that, will get votes from nearly every
state. Next to Crisp, l expect that McAIilln Of
Tennessee has the largest following. He is a
man very much like Crisp, and would undoubt-
edly make a fine presiding officer. / regard
him as the best posted man on the details Of
the tariff that know. Besides votes from Ten
nessee and Kentucky, be has developed consid-
cradle strength in New York and New England
The other candidates who have a chance are
Hatch of Missouri. Mills of Texas and Springer
OF Illinois, each of whom has . number OF
votes pledged. Hatch is splendidly eauipped
for speaker. but / hardly think be will be
chosen The race has Amos. narrowed down
to Crisp and McMillin, with the chances ap-
parently IN favor Of the former"

Funny Thing on Dudley.

The funniest thing I've seen in months oc-
CURED In Cincinnati last week, " said, a man who
travels for a big Chicago wholesale house to the
Chicago Times. Down in Porkopolis " he con
tinued, 81 have an acquaintance who is one of
the best fellows on earth, and who has already,
though be Is yet young, got the junior partner
ship for his ability alone in one of the big retail
stores. This youth is a corker in his business
but ne is somewhat of sport as well. He is
inclined to occasionally get on iamboree
which is good for a week. and during which
everything goes with red streak around it.
His name is Dudley, and during my last
visit there he got on one OF his sporty tears,
and for three days we painted the old town TO-
gether. Then had to quit. I'm no good after
the third day. But Dudley kept it up for
week At the end of the sixth day, coming up
Hlne street It struck him that his course was
little erratic and that his career for the last
week had been open to objections from the
older members Of the firm With the eccen-
trlcIty OF drunken man he resolved to swear
on and brace up'-the next daY. In order
that be might not forget it he wanted to fix
some sort OF reminder. a bright idea struck
him. he went into the Palace hotel, got sheet
of paper sat down and wrote himself a letter,
addressing ii TO the Burnett house. where he
lived saw the letter afterward. 1t was funny
He wrote as follows:
DEAR DUDLEY; Your course is running your
prospects and losing your money. You must
brace up. old man, at once. Don't take drink
to-day and stay In bed Remember Aponaris
is your best friend. Yours. DUDLEY.
ne procured an envelope and stamp and
mailed this TO himself at the Burnett house
Then he had few drinks. met some friends,
went down to the hotel had few more, and
finally got into poker game in the hotel which
lasted all night DRINKS were served on every
Jackpot, and when it was morning the whole
party was pretty badly broken up. But they
kept on playing just the same, till rap came
on the door a ellboy entered with a silver
salver, and on it handed Dudley a letter He
broke the seal and read it. Then he read it
again. II was his own. He read it a third
time, then cast it into the center of the table,
and said:
See here. bozzh: read Eat letter. Shees

N-O
The ra'atial Mary Powell was on her daily
trip up the Hudson, says the Terds Siftinos A
number of passengers had gathered around
the open door Of the engine-room looking with
interest at the movements Of the ponderous
machinery. Among the passengers was Sam
Foster, New York gentleman. who Is a prac-
tical joker. He is young man of means and
was elegantly dressed. He is, moreover, a very
good amateur ventriloquist.
Now, boys" said Foster, ''let us have some
fun With the engineer"
A creaking, squeaking noise was heard among
the machinery The engineer was somewhat
startled, and he fabricated various and sundry
parts of the machinery with great industry and
an oil can. The latter contained half pint of
oil
Foster nudged one of bis boon companions in
the ribs, and pretty soon the machinery
squeaked again. Once more the engineer
calmed down suspected piston by amounting
it with his aleviator. The squeaking still con-
tinued and Foster pointed out the piece that
needed oiling. Once more the engineer took his
alleviator, and removing the cork poured the
contents down the back of tie festive Foster,
and over his Ss0-suit of clothes
There" SAID the engineer 81 don't think
that crank will squeak again in hurry"

Advioes from Rome state that our old
friend Christopher Columbus is to be con-
verted into saint OF the first magnitude
by the pope in order that his remarkable
nautical adventure may be made to re-
dound to the credit of the Catholic church.
When Chris is duly canonized and fastened
upon an appropriate pedestal it is to be
hoped that he will feel better and probably
help along the Chicago fair q bit. In the
name of Saint Christopher it needs help.

recits the wrongs and tribulations of the
Russian Jews, the czarina is charged with
being even more hostile to the Jsraeiites

way of emphasizing this statement the
allegation is made that she requested to

Vaguely mysterious rumors of a danger
GUS contagious fever and also indefinite in
timations Of insanity are circulated in Der =
lin to account for the German emperor's
protracted stay out on the imperial yacht
Some ascribe it to the injury to his knee
cap sustained in his recent fall upon the
deck of the Hohenzollern. All agree that
the kaiser is seriously debilitated in some
way. But the usual mystery observed in
the case of all eminent personages prevails
to bewildering degree. Concealment Of
the facts can certainly no benefit the en-
peror's knee-cap, nor his head either.
