MPS AT THE BALL.
Their Atake-up Was Perfect and The
Made "a Hit


Their atake-up Was Perfect and They
Made Hit.
Two tough-locking tramps wandered
about among the dancers at the Arlon
ball in Madison Square Garden early
yesterday morning. Their clothes were
very ragged, their faces very dirty and
their noses very red. AS they passed
by, walking rather unsteadily, people
turned to look at them and said:
That's a capital makeup. Did you
ever see better representation of two
played-out tramps?
When the high kicking began the un-
kempt pair became very much inter-
ested. In every circle of spectators
surrounding the kickers they were to
be found in the front ranks, cheering
on the performers with admiring COM
mects. Filled with the spirit of emula-
ton, the two tramps jumped into the
circle and began to dance. Of ali the
wild dances that were footed at the
Arion ball, the dance Mike and Bill
danced was the widest. They jumped,
they leaped. they Waggled their heads,
they waved their arms. they kicked
right and left, up and down, east and
west, and north and south; they whirled
and twisted and cavorted: they stamped
clapped their hands; and all the time
they yelled with astounding vigor.
The crowd went wild with 10y. When
the dancers paused for breath there
were thunderous demands for more.
Finally Bill turned q series of hand
springs across the circle, while Mike
walked around on his hands, knocking
his feet together in time to the music.
Unfortunately, Bill did not observe that
Mixes body had intersected the arc OF
the circle of his perspective and last
whistled through the air, completing
the circle, they landed fairly in his COM
panion's stomach.
The performer OF the handspring fell
on his neck on the floor and got tangled
UP with himself. Bill, after few short,
mad yells, arose, gasping for breath,
and, observing the tangle, went and
Jumped on it. The two tramps groveled
on the floor, claWing and kicking and
paving at each other like enraged kit
tens. The crowd hadn't expected the
masqueraders to act out their parts in
such realistic fashion. Bets were being
made on the result when Detective
Sergeants Armstrong and Bowling broke
through the ring and separated the
fighters
These officers know a real tough when
they see one, and Bill and Mike were
put under arrest They gave their
names as John William Johnston, of 325
East Twenty-fourth Street, and Mike
Brady. of 123 East Twenty-third Street.
Questioned as to how they got in they
sheepislv admitted that they had
brokenIn window on the Twenty-sixth
Street side Of the Garden and crawled
through.
When all this was explained to Justice
Voorhis at Jefferson Market court, the
justice smiled and fined Bill and Mike
$40 each fer disorderlv conduct.-New

HOW HE BECAME RICH.

~ was one Of the first to discover
gold in the Ember district of New
South Wales" said Harold Meyer, a
wealthy citizen of Australia. "The fact
that gold existed there was not known
until 1884, when | announced my dis
cOyery by stalking my claim and begin

purely accidental. 1t was rather inter

A British Fighter.

Sir John Hudson, successor to the
Bombay command. has long been one
the Persian war, and again in the
mutiny. During the latter conflict he
won the especial favor of Havelock,
whose daughter he afteward married,
and became an assistant adiutant-gen-
eral. In Afghanistan, in 1879, Hudson
prevented Roberts, during his dash on
Cabul, from being surrounded; and
during the fighting around Suakim
be won fresh laurels. His rank,
that of colonel, alone withheld from
him the thanks of Parliament, but he
received the X. c. B., and was kept in
Africa for some time as governor-gen-
eral of the Red Sea Littoral. He is now
in his Goth wear.

RUroIc Pacific Coast Lad.

There is little hero in Colville,
Stevens County, Wash. One day
when the thermometer was 10 de-
grees below zero, parents did not real
ize now cold it was, and little children
were allowed to go to school. Among
them were Edwin McCutchen, aged s
years, and his little sister Eva, eight
cen months younger. Her hands got
cold, and Edwin put his mittens upon
her and tugged away at her, and when
they arrived at the school-house he
held one OF her little mittened hands
between his bare hands, trying to kee p
them warm. When they got inside the
teacher discovered that all his fingers
Oh both hands were frozen stiff.

California sugar Beet Industry.

The greatest success in sugar beet
growing at Chino and near Pomona,
Cal, and in the beet sugar industry,
has caused the greatest planting of beets
there ever known. Over 5000 acres
have already been planted, and more
acres are being prepared daily for a
sugar beet culture. Every man who
raised beets at Chino last year has
planted larger area to beets again this
season. The industry is highly profit
able one. and will, in few years, bring
over 20, 900 acres Of raw land near Chino
alone under cultivation. The factory
has prospered from the day it began
business

An old lady, looking out of the win

other day, saw III one of the yards silk
patchwork quilt, old and faded, hanging
on the line. Instantly she stopped the

she knew she would, an old friend she
had not seen in years. She recognized
the quilt as one she had seen her friend

CLEAR The WAY.


There's a change about to come,
Clear the way,
In the world OF faShiondom,
SO they say.
skirts have been worn close and fat
But well have no more of that;
Oh, it's crinoline they re at,
Clear the wayi
Build the street cars good and wide,
Clear the way
Even then the men outside
Have TO stay;
And they IL make dreadful fuss,
Just because within the bus
There is only room for us,
Clear the way
Married men with wives to dress
(Bills to pay)
Ale the picture of distress
For they say
That ii certainly will take
Just as much again to make
Dresses of the proper shape.
Clear the way
Ruffles go from hem to waist,
Clear the way
Just to suit the wearer's taste
For display.
Merchants wear fiendish grin,
Ger the custom they will win
When the Crinoline comes in.

A Fire-proof Electric Wire.

When it became evident that electric
wire with q fire-proof insulation was an
absolute necessity, inventors at once
set to work to develop sucn an insula-
ton. The success of these efforts has
hitherto varied considerably, but now
possesses such fre-resisting qualities
that the most extreme fire tests to
which it has been subjected have failed
to produce any visible effect upon It.
