A few weeks ago a local hackman was
summoned to Il ~clergyman's house to con
vey him to a meeting in another part of
the city. On obeying the m he
found another carriage in waiting and an
impatient driver walking up and down be-
fore thedoor. The minister came urriedly
down the steps and got into the second
hack, and the driver prepared to move off.

hackman, what are you taking the minis
ter away for? There's a couple of young
folks in there waiting to be married. Why
don't he jine 'em before he goes off? |
don't want to wait here all night"
The minister's hackman chirrupcd to his
horses without deigning to notice the other
mans remarks. He was gone an hour and
returned with the clergyman, and 10! the
same hackman was pacing up and downin
front of the house. He was in anything
but an amiable mood.
IF I was running a business I'd tend to
it," said he as the minister was alighting.

Might Have Known the HardiDs

A respectable looking colored man of the
old school was standing near the family
carriage, IN Fourth avenue, the other day.
He was gazing at the display of laces in
the windows when a seedy white man,
who looked as if he was about to beg, ap-
preached and said:
"How do you do, uncle?"
"Howdy, sah?" responded the old fell
low, lifting his hat.
"You were born in Kentucky, were you

Not on the RiIi of Care.

Fritz is his name. Failing to succeed as
a horse car driver, he sought and found
employment as a waiter in a down town
restaurant. 1t did not take the customers
long to learn that Fritz was a green hand
at the business, and they proceeded to guy
him. Fritz stood the storm well, but the
proprietor of the place became angry, par
ticularly when Fritz was ordered to serve
impossible dishes. One day a solemn look
ing maj told Fritz to bring him a sirloin
steak, fried potatoes and Il cup of coffee.
Having finished that, the patron said:
Nov let me have a slice of watermelon
pie and some muskmelon tarts. Be sure
to lave them hot"
Fritz hurried off to the kitchen. In a
few moments . great row was in progress
and the unlucky Fritz came flying out
into the dining room, ably propelled by the
foot of the lusty cook. He escaped into
the street.

who we're faithful to the end of the
session in the performance of the
public duties are patriotic citizens of
the republic. A large portion of
those who were frequently absent
made the interests of the people

Perhaps they wisely decided that
they could best serve their constitu-

But all this woe is naught to me. for baby's had

What though my shoes are minus strings, my
manuscripts awry?
l know this betokens babes been spared q
heartful cry.
What though the floor is ever strewn with
toys, by night and day?
Is there not pleasure in the thought that baby's

games at 4 a. II.
Are not just suited to my mind: but John Is
fond of them.
And, after all, 1t seems to me-, no mai can we'll
gainsay
That there is lots and lots of fun when baby
has his way.
So, son and heir, continue on thy happy, blest
career;
Meier shall thy daddy interpose to raise the
scalding tear.

thy joyous play;
AS far as I'm concerned, my boy. go on and

SNEAK thieves seem to be reve
ing with more than their usual WV
acity in the town of Castle, at least
the local papers so report. Black

fiat irons and pumpkin pie are all re-
CURED to salty their varied wants.
In Neihart, it is different. kero-
sene, whiskey, house plants, eggs
and hides are the objects of their
covetous desires. That the crib
crackers of Castle are not stealing
whiskey is sufficient evidence to class
them below the same element of this
town.

paragement of the G. o. p, finding
that such out breaks are caused by
existing laws and their improper adj

his probosis, he knows that these
things are effects with which the

Rival JOkers.

The jealousy which almost always ex-
lists between different arms of the military
service used to be illustrated by the dia-
logues which took place between cavalry
men and infantrymen during the civil
war. 1t was a f~avorite and brutal joke ON
the part of the cavalrymen, who affected
to despise the foot soldiers, to shout to
some soldiers as the cavalry were passing
the infantry ON the march:
Are you tired of walking?"
Whereupon, if the infantryman, suppos-
ing that he was going to get a lift, re
sponded ''Yes!" the cavalryman would say,
"Well, try running awhile!"
The i%nfantrymen, for their part, ridi-
culed the cavalrymen numerically when
they were in camp, where the cavalrymen
were compelled to spend much of their
time in acting as body servants to their
horses.
a cavalryman was one day engaged in
laboriously cleaning down. his rather
rawboned steed. An infantryman saun.
tered up, and with his hands behind his
back leisurely inspected the operation.
"Hullo, John!' said the cavalryman.
"Think you'd like to be in the cavalry"
"Oh, yes" said the infantryman, but
only as a hOrse!"-Youth's Companion.
