There was a pathetic ending to a
presentation in a Broadway Office n
day. The friends Of a popular railroad
agent assembled 10 bid him gOOdby, he
having been transferred by his com
pany TO another city. They gave him
a costly diamond ring In token Of their
lasting regard The recipient Of the
gift, who is a genial and generous man,
put on his hat and said. Boys. ! want
you all TO take luncheon with me, and
We will have something that sparkles
besides diamonds"
Just as the party was leaving the
Office a telegram was handed to the
genial wearer Of the ring. He opened
it laughingly, but a startled and sad
dened expression came over his face as
be read its contents. Handing it TO
one Of his friends, he murmured husk-
ily, "You do the honors for me, old
fellow" and hastily retired into his
private Office. The telegram announced
the death Of his mother New York

The NIiSsing Pawn.

One Saturday afternoon, according
10 their wont, two friends of the noble
game Of chess sat playing together in a
Frankfort cafe. Suddenly one Of them
started up from his seat in a passion
and exclaimed:
''You have taken one of my pawnsl'
A glance at the board and men suf-
feed 70 show that a pawn was really
missing. The excitement over the lost
pawn became so intense that a lively
alteration ensued, in which all the
other gentlemen in the oom took part.
Quiet was at last restored, and the
player who had lost his pawn resumed
bis seat and began to drink his coffee,
which was covered with thick cream,
when he all at once got something into
his throat which nearly chOked him.
He succeeded, however, in extricat-
ing the intrusive article, which turned
out to be the missing pawn. The chess
player, intent on the game, had thrown
it into his cup in the place of a lump OF
sugar.-Wiener Extrablatt.

While ar parados the police captains
appear 10 be proud Of their spies and
span uniform. set of with brass buttons
and gold lace. il is a curious fact that
in ordinary circumstances they seem TO
be unhappy when they are compelled
to appear in them in public. Various
reasons may be assigned for this repug-
nance to wearing the livery Of the force.
Perhaps in the streets and in public

Another scheme is an ingenious one

Sometimes, however, officers have

Hospital Nurses' Franks.

Once in a while a hospital gets a
nurse who is full of mischief, whose
capers keep the whole staff on the look
out for practical jokes. And n Of
this kind, Miss H., was a few years
2 in one Of the largest Of local iDsti-
buttons. At that time a visiting ply
sician on duty was a very swell young
NJ. D., who often made his rounds after
supper arrayed in a dress suit. Miss
H didn't like this, and thought up
a scheme 70 remedy it. One Of the pa
tients was a man, who entered into the
secret, and Miss H rubbed upon
his wrists and hands a coating of vase
line.
Pretty soon the swell young practi-
toner put in an appearance dressed for
a dance. He saw his other patients,
and then visited the man referred to.
The doctor wore the thinnest of dainty
white gloves, and after feeling the sick
mans pulse was surprised TO find his
wrist covered with a greasy substance.
He raised a row about it, but nobody
would discipline Miss H, and it was
noticed that the doctor never appeared
at the hospital afterward in a dress suit
The funniest feature Of hospital life,
the nurses say, lies in the fact that
about IS per cent. of young unmarried
men whom they take ARE Of fall in
love with them. When a nurse pulls a
young fellow through a siege Of serious
illness ne seems 70 feel in duty bound
to propose marriage to the nurse

Professor Baird be right the greatest

as a fish has no maturity there is moth
