Greeting a BunEo Steerer,

Sometimes the bunko steerer meets his

lawyer in this city for many years, but
now resides in his beautiful home in
Nyack, had an encounter with one Of
Hungry Joe's confrees in which the lat

is Quaker and wears SLOUGH hat and
Joshua Whitcomb clothes. Passing
through city hall park an elegantly
dressed young man said: What! Do my
eyes deceive me: You are But Mr..
Lawrence seized the fellows hand and
broke in: why, am glad to see thee,

A Famous Fire Rescue.

In the forenoon of Jan. 81, 1882, the
old building at Park row and Beekman
street caught fire. The 6-story building
had only one stairway and was filed
with people. The building being old
and dry, the fame spread rapidly, and
many people found a terrible death.
Just as it seemed that no human being
could escape death three men We're seen
In an upper window. The firemer
quickly brought ladders, but the longes,
reached only half the distance In the
crowd colOred bOOtblack, Charles
Wright, saw that fastened to the roof of
the building, just above the window
where the men were, was q telegraph
wire, and that this wire ran across the
street to the top of telegraph pole in
City Hall park.
He saw that if the wire was cut in the
park it would fall right across the win
dow. SO that the men could descend by
it. In an instant he seized fireman's
wrench that lay near by, ran across the
street and began to climb the tall, smooth
telegraph pole. It was not easy in the
wind and snow, but by hard climbing
Wright soon reached the crossbars.
Quickly he twisted the wire rope off.
Down it fell, right across the window!
The crowd shouted for JOY as one after
another the three men came down in
safety. For moment only the boy was
forgotten. It was not long before every
one had heard of Charles Wright, the
boy who saved three Gves.-Cor. New

chair. and otherwise contributing to-

matter is all settled.
An archery contest. clothes pin social

POpulists not IndorSed.

Mr.. Wing. who left Petis county
some seventeen years ago, aud whose
home is in Dodge City, Kansas. is here
visiting friends. He says the revolu-
tlonary course Of the Kansas populi.ts is
not indorsed By the people of the state.
he also gave it as his opinion that the
farmers who have worked hard and ac-
cumulated property are conteuted and
happy. and the Kansas farmers who are
making the most noise and so greatly
dissatisfied with existing conditions, are
those who are shiftleSs and never ac-
cumulate anything.-Sedalia Democrat.

An AneettnG Scene Of = Tragedy Brokes
Up BY the Principal Char.eter.
Many amusing incidents are recorded
OF the laughable blunders caused by
doubling parts. Among them is story
Of George Powell, an old English actor,
who was among the great men of the
stage in 100. The play was Rowe's
'Fair Penitent," in which the naughty,
gallant, gay LothariJ .s slain at the close
of the fourth act, but his corpse figures
prominently in the concluding scene.
The stage directions provide for q room
hung with black, with Lothario's body
upon bier standing on one side of the
stage, on the other side q table with q
skull, book and lamp. Calista is discov-
cred on a couch in the back. In this, as
In similar cases, it was clearly unneces-
sary for the impersonator of the lively
Lothario of the fourth act to represent
his dead body in the fifth. It was usual.
therefore, to allow the actors dresser to
perform this delightful duty. Now, Mr..
POweLs dresser was q rather timid
young man by the name of Warren, and
on the occasion recorded was living on
the bier waiting for the curtain to &C
down on the fifth act.
Powell, forgetful that his attendant
was employed in impersonating the
corpse of Lothario, was impatient to be
gone and called loudly for his dresser.
He was very passionate man and when
enraged quite violent. He opened his
door and called for Warren and threat
ened him with the severest of punish
ments if he did not Immediately come to
his assistance.
The unhappy dresser could not help
overhearing his raging master, yet for
some time his fears were surmounted by
bis sense Of dramatic propriety. he
tremblingly longed for the fall of the
curtain. Powell threatened to break
every bone in his skin, which threat he,
In his dresser's opinion, was man quite
likely to carry out. The situation finally
became unbearable, and, with a c-y

fastened to the handle of his bier.

Woman and Politics.

According to the story Of man from
Wyoming, woman suffrage has not ma
terially changed the nature of woman.
The surest way to get an Indifferent
woman to vote is the threat of neigh
Dor to kill her husbands vote by an
other. Straightway the shiest woman
win put on her hat and go to the polls.
Every woman, however, takes pains to
register to be prepared for any emer-
gency, and politics is the chief topic at
the sewing bees, church circles and aft
eznoon teas. The women had some trou-
bic with the Australian ballot, and pri-
vate rehearsals were held in every house.
