A New ParaIyzer.

The bartenders Of this region will be hearing
calls for new drink before this paragraph ap-
pears. The drink in question old topsrs tell me
is new, as least here, and it is called "Durkee
Split" which is good enough name perhaps
but not signiticantof the cocktails potency.
Here are the component parts: jigger and a
half OF Jamaica rum, a iigger of curacao. q
whole lemon and plenty of ice.
The recips is no more awe-inspiring than the
name, but the man who gave 1t to me said:
"Permit me to say that this particular vanity
is paraiyzer from way back. The other four
friends of mine tried few rounds of Durkee
splits, and they showed no signs of the effects
of the drink till they reached the frosty air in
the street. Then they manifested a desire to
lie down that would have panied me to see il

THE TOPICAL TALKER.
He Enioyed the Cigar.


Some richer man had given him cigar OF
superlative quality, one of those lovely pack
ages of fragrant tobacco which poor men dream
about and rich men don't appreciate. He lit
it, being unmindful Of the rule that fine cigar
should be smoked within doors, and minute
or two afterward remembered thar he had a
mission to the Southnde to perform. He
jumped on q street car and the conductor at
once said to him: mo smoking allowed here"
and pointed to a newly painted sign TO that
effect. The car was abreast of the Mononga-
hela House when the awful truth dawned upon
the man with the superfne cigar that he had
to spoil the latter forever by letting it go out.
or get of the car. He did not wish to do
either. In crossing the bridge the car slowed
down once or twice and the man with the fine
cigar dropped oil the platform and pulled away
vigorously, then hiding the cigar in his palm he
boarded the car again. He had another op-
portunity to take pull at the weed
when the car stopped to let OF pas
sengers at the Lake Erle depot, and
though the conductor glared at him ferociousy,
he managed to keep the cigar alighr till the car
reached his destination at Thirtieth street, and
comfortable smoke still remained in it. Per-
haps this veracious narrative is more eloquent
OF the deep attachment OF man to good cigar
than anything else.

IIrs Gul WouIdn't Marry Him and
Geo. NJ. Adams Skips Town.

George NJ. Adams, employed as night
caller at the Union Pacific round house,
skipped out yesterday because the young
lady to whom he expected to get married
refused to become his wife.
Adams is IS years of age and a widower,
his wife having died three years ago. He
has been Industrious and has for the past
two years made good wages. An the
time OF his wife's death he was heavily
In debt, but he has been paying off his
liabilities and at the present time is almost
square.
The young lady in the case is lg years
old. She is a vivacious, good looking
girl and evidently won Adams affections
long ago, for he has been a
constant admirer for several years.
Her parents formerly lived on
the South Side real Adams home. and
despite the difference in age Adams
always seemed to be a favorite with the
young lady and a marriage was looked
upon by the neiRhbors as a certainty. In
fact she accepted him and all the arrange
ments were being made for the wedding.
Several days ago, however, she positively
refused to proceed with the arrangements
and even intimated that she had decided
to marry another, a Younger man who
had been paying her attentions.
Completely disheartcned at this con-
duct, Adams decided to leave town. Yes
terday he sent his books aud papers to
Superintendent Barnum with a note.
which read: When this reaches you l
will be many miles away. / have good
reasons for going, but cannot explain. l
leave a few debts which | will pay when l
get work again. Hope you will not feel
hard against me for this action"
Adams wages for April are still due
him. They have been garnisheed by some
of his creditors. Until recently, when he
commenced giving his money to his
iancee he had been applying his earnings
to straiRhten up his Indebtedness. Lately
some of his creditors have been crowding
him and probably influenced him in his
determination to leave town.
Adams is said to be a nephew of
Charles Francis Adams, ex-president of
the Union Pacific Railroad Company,
and to be graduate of one of the leading
colleges OF the country. He has, how
ever, never given any evidence while liv-
ing here OF intellectual attainments or un-
usual ability.
The young lady who is the cause OF
Adams departure is unmoved by her
loss and will probably marry the Younger
man"

Posey Wilson has been heard from
again. This time he writes from Denver
to the New York SIN, and, as usual, ex-
ercises his critical powers III a way not
calculated to amuse those most closely
concerned. Here is his letter: The at
tention of all good folk who labor to send
missionaries into heather parts is invited
to Colorado. For there are many here
who do not know that there is such a
thing as the pocket handkerchief. ANY
day, on the chief thoroughfare of this
city, one may see bonanza kings and real
estate nabobs grasping their respective
noses between the thumb and first finger
and blowing a blast that would have set
Col. Roderick Dhu wild with envy.

management OF the nose.

blast to the uncultured noses of Colora-
