Pleading n Frienl,s Case.

An excuse SO absurd as to put an en-
tire courtroom in good humor was given
not long ago before an English magis-
trate. A name was called by the usher,
a voice answered, "'Erer and man
with lame leg stumped up to tho table
and said the defendant could not appear.
"Why?" asked the magistrate.
well, your worship, he's i'll. He's
VERY bad indeed, SIR
whats the matter with him?'
"He's got q Very bad leg, SIR"
whats the matter with it?''
"Well, your worship, it's like this ere.
It's got wrong in the j'ints, SIR"
HAS he got rheumatismP"
"Well, sir, faint that 'zackly. It's a
cork leg, and the spring in the tint as
gone wrong"
The magistrate himself could not help
joining in the laughter which filled the
court at the absurdity of one man with
disjointed leg pleading the cause of q
similarly afflicted friend and at the dole
full tone In which he added:
Il do assure your worship that it's
VERY, VERY bad, and he can't walk"
The summons was held over until the
broken spring could be repaired, and the
advocate stumped out of court with q
smile on his face and making a solid
sound which proved that all his own
''j'ints" were in good working order

Economy Among Women and Men.

An esteemed correspondent takes issue
with recent comment ON the deficiency
of humor among women, as evidenced
by the fact that they are rarely seen buy
ing funny papers on the railway trains.
"Don't you know" writes this protest
ing suburban friend, 40 cents seem to
q woman a good deal to spend for few
moments, while to men, who are con-
stantly throwing dimes and more away
on cigars, drinks and the like, the sum is
of no value"
To which may be added the remark
heard not long ago of n man who is pos
sessed of what might be called average
habits in the matter of drinking and
smoking.
In that moment of genial introspection
which not infrequently assails man
after glass or two of wine and in the
enveloping clouds Of good cigar he
was discussing with the partner of his
joys and sorrows the merits and demer-
its of his manner of life
"You are quite right, my DEAR" he re-
piled, as his wife finished a little homily
on the injustice of her trying to save 90
cents on the quality of the children's I'M
derwear while he tossed away dollar
o day in dimes and nickels for things
that did him no good. ''You are quite
right. It's my change pocket that keeps
us hard up all the time. New York

An Anccdoto or Artemus ward.

Artemus Wards companions were n
band Of brilliant young Bohemians for
whose kind the metropolis now contains
no room. They were the last of their
kind, and most of them lived but brief
lives. They produced much that was
brilliant, but nothing that lasted. Arte-
mus alono won enduring fame. The 9TH
ers were writers, actors and minstrels.
Tho brothers Dan and Neil Bryant were
eminent members Of the clan, together
with Charles Dawson Shanly and shin
ing cluster Of young men about town.
One of the latter, who lived to becomea
staid merchant, used to relate with glee
how on leaving the little theater in
Twenty-third street late one evening In
company with Artemus, Shanly and
Neil Bryant the trio broke out in joyous
carol.
The song was interrupted by one Of
tho then despised metropolitan police
men, who roughly ordered them to stop
the noise. At this rude interruption
Artemus stopped his song, and turning
threw himself upon tho broad bosom Of
the astonished policeman and gave way
to a gush Of passionate tears. His friends
endeavored to calm him, and the en-
barrassed officer, half choled by his
warm embrace, begged him to desist,
which he did with the declaration that
"the metropolitan policeman is the no
blest work Of God.s This sentiment Sc
cured escape and continuance of the
song.-Don @. Seitz in Century.

lament" says that Lord Palmerston had
a natural buoyancy which his opponents
called audadity, but which seldom failed
to jerk him over dangerous rut in the
road, not always without splash, but
generally without harm.
One crisis in his ministerial life illus
trates the absolute good humor which
may prevail even when political enmity
is at its worst. Lord Derby, the father
of the present earl, had made an attack
upon him in the upper house with such
energy and eloquence that the odds
against him seemed overwhelming. But
he defended himself and his policy from
the dusk of one day to the dawn of an
other with such tact, dexterity and force
of appeal to the national sense of honor
that he was acquitted of all blame by a
majority of fourscore.
Next day, in passing through the cor
ridor leading from an anteroom to the
upper house, one swing door opened to
his hand, and at the same moment the
other to that of Lord Derby. They
were opponents, but they were also
manly and sweet natured men. They
smiled.

Composer Glucls Mt Work.

When Gluck composed his immortal
works, bottle Of champagne was al
ways placed on either side Of the piano,
and its effervescence helped to inspire
the great arias of "Iphigenia,' "Armida"
and "Alceste." When the final rehear-
sails were held of the 'Iphigenia, Gluck
had not yet written the melody to the
"Dance of the Scythians." NaverTe, the
the ballet master, becoming uneasy over
the delay, went to him one morning to
urge him to hurry it up. AS he entered
the composers anteroom he heard unu-
sual and terrific noises emanating from
Gluck's library. He approached stealth
lily, and through crack in the door saw
Gluck in shirt sleeves, his face as red as
fire and distorted by horrible grimaces,
singing, gesticulating and jumping
about like q mailman. Naverre, fright
ened by the extraordinary spectacle,
pushed the door open. "Ah, there you
are," exclaimed Gluck. II am Just fin
ishing your dance and will let you have
it right away" 1t was then that Gluck
had composed that grand orgie Of the
savages which created such o profound
sensation on the stage.--St. Louis Post
Dispatch.

He Remembered His Past Life.

The man who prides himself upon the
fact that he is recovering from his bash
fulness says: Eyes, I used to be miser-
ably timid, for u fact. And remember
once, when / was trying to cut good
figure with the mother of certain
young lady with whom / was much
taken and was doing the extremely at
tentive by putting aside portiere for
her to pass through doorway, a button
on my coat sleeve caught in her hair and
lifted her false front nearly off her head.
my feelings while was unfastening
that button can never be described by
me, and my horrible nervousness seemed
to prolong the operation into hours. You
have heard of the things that rush into
drowning mans mind. Well, I think

ter, and my expectations were blasted
forever. l never dared to call on that
young woman again. x Chicago Journal.

stngcered by Tinger BowIa.

A very amusing scene occurred once
while / was serving lady and gentle
man of the unmistakable upstart type.
They were grossly ignorant Of the most
elementary rules of table etiquette, show
cling the food into their mouths with
their knives, which were constantly load
ed half way up to the handles. They
managed to struggle through their din
ner, sometimes casting aside knives and
forks and attacking game and poultry by
cutting them in halves and eating from
their hands, holding leg. Sometimes.
too, they became ridiculously polite by
carving bread with knife and fork, but
the climax came when / set two bowls
Of rosewater before them as finger
glasses.
They looked ut each other, and then
cautiously around the room, trying to
find some solution of themysterious dish
before them, not having the sense to ig-
more it altogether. Whispered consulta-
lions took place, which presently grew
into suppressed quarrel, the lady re-
preaching her lord for his ignorance.
Suddenly she was seen to shake the wa
ter around and around, and finally. with
q look of contempt and superior wis
dom, she raised the bowl to her lips and
drank all the contents. Needless to say
that the hearty laughter of the other d.
ners made them feel the mistake. and
they beat hasty retreat. London Tit

NJ WEDNESDAY,

afternoon among the citizens of Scratch
Gravel when it was discovered that
Jack was gone. Search was made Of
his cabin, but there were no signs of
Sally, Jack or the twins They were
gone for good.
And now comes the strangest part of
this story. The 10th of July five years
later gray old man, bent nearly dou-
BILE, thrust his shadowy form into the
presence of the chiee magistrate of
Scratch Gravel and demanded hearing.
81 am Jack Langworthy," he said,
"and | have come back according to
promise to be hanged. You see, the
twins are dead-both dead-and Sally
she's gone to-run away with another
man, and now I've come back to meet
the requirements of the law. There has
been some delay, I'll admit, but / was
bound to come back some time, and here
am"
The laws and customs of Scratch
Gravel had changed somewhat since
Jack departed the place five years be-
fore, and as the affair in which he was
interested was no longer sensation of
the day he was simply told to leave the
town as soon as possible. He went at
once, and the last seen of him alive he
was tramping slowly out of town with
his face toward the setting sun.
A little later in the year, when the
chapparal bushes began to shed their
leaves and the vines that tumbled over
the gray rocks were touched with frost,
the fleshless frame Of man was found
suspended from a rock over deep
ravine. 1t was Jack Langworthy. Fail
ing to find an executioner when he want
ed one, he had taken the matter into his
own hands and hanged himself. M.
