An Unfortun etc Investigation.

The boys were suspicious that Pro- lessor Spire had formed the habit of going upstairs every evening about 9:30 o'clock, to creep along the hall in his stocking feet and listen at their doors. They thought, however, that his case was not incuarable if strong measures were taken. They made their pr, arations and then waited in silent pectation.
 When Professor Spire came out of his room and began to moDnt the stairs, a cold galvanized carpet tack penetrated his very sole. He uttered a subdaed howl of agony and sat down on the step above to investigate. But t;.cks were there also, and they began to investigate before he did. He rose with promptness and this time the howl was not subdued. Doors flew open and anxious faces looked down from above.
 What is it?' gasped the professor pct, beautiful blue-eyed lad, who scorned to do d base act. He had re- fused to contribute more than cent toward buying Jacks.
 "Nothing serious" replied the pro- lessor, with dismal effort at cheer fitness. ''I found the wind rather against me going up these stairs, and had just started on another tack, that's all. But it is almost 10 o'clock, and yacht to be abed, boys. ."-Boston Post

4 Story Of Florence.

| A pretty story related of ths Ia | nen!ed Florence is that of an episod, with a stage struck young woman { Coming out of the theater in DostoI one evening after performance, : | young woman timidly approached nim l saying as he paused to listen: Mir { Florence, will you tell me where I cat come and see you about going on tho 1 stage p
 Taking in the situation at glance the actor replied kindly, Why, yes, al the - hotel tomorrow morning a, F o'clock"
 Punctually at that hour the would. le actress was shown in. She was eyi dently . simply-bred gil, facinate q with the glamour of the fo0t-lights. With entire ignorance of what was ex- pected of her she announced her desire finishing naively:
 And 1 thought I'd come and ask what must do first ?'
 "You are familiar with some plays, presume?' questioned MT. Florence.
 "Oh, yes" eagerly. II go to the theater al can. I've seen you every time you've been in Boston,"
 "But mean you have studied some dramatic roles Sn pursued the actor.
 "l-think not" was the hesitating reply.
 You can read something, at least. to let me see what you can do ?n he tried next.
 ''l can read poetry" answered the girl.
 Don't you know some poetry that you can recitr 7" urged Mr. Florence.
 Yes, siia knew Longfellow's The Bridge" and she proceeded to give it in way that 1t has probably never been given before nor since.
 There WAS moments silence after she had finished, broken at length by Mir. Florence
 You have home ?n he asked.
 .'Oh, yes"
 "A mother and father ?''
 No father. but q mother"
 And lover, may be ?" watching the girls face keenly.
 She blushed aud admitted that there was lover.
 Well. now, my dear," said MT. Florence, II can spare you no more time this morning. Leave me your name and address and you shall hear from me very soon."
 The girl complied, and before her footsteps had died away in the hall the actor was seated at a table writing The next day, with a handsomely framed picture of MT. Florence, there vas 'eliyered to the aspirant for his trionic effort this note:
 DEAR Miss -: Stay with your mother, marry your lover, and play leading lady on the home stage, where you are fitted to shine in all womanli- ness. ise assured, my dear young friend, OH the other stage to which you aspire you would be as ou, of place as a mouse in a call room.
 Sincerely yours,

Tho RIllvlIe Banner.

Last Sunday Parson Jones pulled out his Waterbury watch to see if he had preached an hour and half. when the glass fell off and fifteen yards of the handspring flew out and, catching Deacon Scruggs round the neck, choked him to death and caused Sister Sprad- der to break her right arm and tripped up Steward Brown and upset the pulpit. The Waterbury watch is little but lively.
 Burglars rifled the Billville postoifice last Wednesday night and made of with the years receipts, consisting of fifty two-cent stamps, one package of stamped envelopes, one ball of red tape and one side of meat. 1t is a sad blow

Got the lob.

A rather seedy looking chap drifted into Bernarisyille some time ago and asked a carpenter for work. He said he had knack i'll that line. The car penter looked at him him keenly, then handed him a sharp hatchet and told him to put point on stake. The newcomer did it rapidly and well.
 "That'll do," said the carpenter, '::though you forgot something"
 Whats that?"
 You didn't hit stone and spoil the edge of the hatehet.n
 Crack went the hatchet on stone running the edge.
 Well, begraciousln exclaimed the carpenter. "Say, young fellow, didn't mean that. but you do know how to obey orders, and I'll hire you. "- Newark Sunday Call.

Whls,cey Seats

Yheater-goers who cannot refrain going out between acts can make themselves less of a nuisance by read ing and needing the following: II want two whiskey seats" said a con- stant theater-goer to man in the box office at one Of the principal theaters on Saturday afternoon. "WhiskeY seats?" and the theater man, who was rufiled for the first time in his expe- rience, looked helpless for moment. "Oh, ] see," he added, after his scat tered senses had returned. ''Here's E and ?, right. Three dollars" And the man put the ''whiskey seats' in his pocke,book and looked happy. And a friend asked for an explanation which ran in this wise: When go to see a play 1 generally get dry as the symptoms of curtain-falling appear why. l can't tell, but 1 suppose it's habit. If I'm in the middle of row the thought I'll have to climb over half dozen people who are not dry enough to leave between the acts mars the pleasure of the periodical climaxes. So always buy the end seat, and somebody has appropriately styled it the 'whiskey seat To night take my wife along, and So I got two seats. although she will sit out the play in blissfnl ignorance of the fact that she is in 'whiskey seat.
 If you drop into theater Monday night just notice how judiciously the managers arrange the newspaper men detailed to do the first night. "-Phila' | delphia Inquirer.
