OF the heaviest and most effective gun
of the Confederates. The credit for this
act of bravery is given to a sailor named
Emerson, who coolly fred his gun,
although he had smashed shoulderand

Another instance of recorded bravery
is the act Of Quarter Gunner Wood, who
lost both arms and legs and on being
offered assistance cried out: Back to
your guns, bovs Give EN- fits! Hur-

Cumberland deserves place among the

When the jokes have been returned
by several papers and the lot has dwin-
died down somewhat, he puts two or
three lots together and sends them down
the long list OF papers that pay from
twenty-five to fifty cents. Out of Il
lot Of 1000 jokes he still has on hand
between 400 and 500 which he has been
unable to dispose of, but he keeps them
with the idea of rewriting them some
day. The most annoying thing the
funny man has to contend with is the
delay in getting back his manuscript.
lie is oftcutines debarrcd from writing
current jokes and obliged to fall back
on old subjects, because he knows that
the first paper will keep his lnatter so
long that when it is returned many Of
the ideas will DO stale, and yet the edi-
tors cannot bo blamed for this, They
nre wonderfully conscientious in their
duties. and tho vast mass OF material
they receive neccssitltcs much work

Where the Heat Is Very Great

The heat along the coasts of the
Red sea almost realizes the famous
East Indian story of a Calcutta man who.
Seeing his wife burned to ashes by the
sun while r'tshly venturlng out on the
balcony after lunch. called out to his
servant, "John, sweep up Your mistress,
and bring another bottle of champagne.
y year or t"o ago one of the Italian
generals of division in Egypt insisted, in
spite of all remonstranccs, on sending Il
detachment of | 200 men across tho open
country in the daytime; and the result
was that when that terrible march ended
not one man Of the 200 was fit to sboul-
der his rifle, and not Il few Of them had
died outright.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2s.-The joke col

ordered newspaper, is All interesting
thing to study Most of the jokes of
today are in the form of dialogues, but
oftentimes the best and brightest say
ings are contained i'll a single line.
These Jokes, gathered from all sources
and invariably credited to the various
papers where they originate, are as
much an article of commerce us the
queer carvings that you see displayed in
the windows Of Swiss villages, and they
command a certain scale of prices vary
ing according to the standard of the
papers In which they appear. Whole
families are supported by them. Tho
milk which the funny mans baby sucks
from its bottle is bought with the bright
saying which came to the father the
week before, perhaps when he was fear
ful with anxiety over the child's life.

Dr..Lusk, who attended Mrs. John
Jacob Astor when she became a mother
last November, forgot to register the
birth of the child with the bureau of
vital statistics Of the New York board
of health, and therefore this young heir
to one hundred and fifty millions had
no legal existence until he was three
months old. DR.. LnSk will probably
have to pay Il fine of fifty dollars, not so
much for his slight to the youngest of
the Astors, but because the health de-
