Accident on an Elevator.

In one of New Works largest hotels they
have three elevators and of course require
very powerful machinery to run them. One
of the guests who had gone to the theatre,
fingered for nice little private spread at
Ders, and as the steak was particularly good,
"you know" and his best girl in lovely
humor (who by the way was his wife) the
gentleman remained so long with his charm
ing companion over his Mumm's, that when
he reached his hotel the colored attendant of
the elevator had gone up stairs and falleninto
the arms of Murphy or Morpley, I'm not
sure which. Our friend believed in fresh air
dina lived on the floor nearest the sky, so of
course he was disappointed to find the elevator
closed for the night. He muttered something
to his wife and gave wrench at the iron
and he laughed, and although his wife at first
refused TO enter, he finally prevailed and
chuckled to himself as the elevator started
upwards, to think how he outcome the mouse,
and how the darkey's eyes would stand out IN
the morning, when he found the elevator at
the top of the house. When they got 10 the
second floor from the top our frlend tnougnt
he might as well try 70 o0wd p he could not
check the unmanagesble elevator. Inc pros

a gentleman on the floor below was attracted;
he jumbed to the elevator and g1asped the
wire rope holding with all his strength land

twelve years. and he finally brought the ele;

were profuse in their thanks and when they

passed her holidays in England, chow our
British cousins survive succession of
Christmases. They could not, believe, if
they did not come twelve months apart
The generous preparations in the way of
feasting were surprise to me, for which
even the well stocked lar1ers of my New
England childhood's home did not prepare
me. Fancy a hundred and fifty or two
hundred mince pies by way of one iteml
This is by no means an unusual number
for an English country family to put in
stock. Many of them, of course, are given
away; all the children of the village who
come to the house to offer wishes for a
merry Christmas expect and receive pie
The pies are about saucer size, and
deeper than the average American pie and
what will interest American housekeepers
is that they are made without meat. Mince
meat without meat is paradox, but such

however, with suet, fruit and liquor. An

His owner told me he very much resented
having to play second fiddle to the collie

the various tid-bits disappearing down the
