A Run of Hard Luck.

From the New York Herald
He had been in New York but few weeks
just long enough to look around bit and fall
in love. 1t doesn't take a man long to fall in
love, and he can sometimes fall out again a
great deal quicker. Sometimes he can't.
Il didnt know Now York much when came
here" he says but am learning Last pay
day took my girl to the theater and when we
came out suggested We go somewhere and get
something to cat. My girl is always hungry
don't know whether all girls are that way
or whether this is Just my luck NV girls are
always hungry. / used to have girl out in
Chicago who was dyspeptic-she could eat
more than any Of them. She would eat beef
steak and mushrooms for supper, and when her
poor little stomach rejected it she was ready
for fresh cucumbers and ice cream. 1 never
saw such girl. quarreled with her finally
told her once when took her out that I'd buy
her anything she could keep down. She got
mad. Some women are sensitive about such
things.
''Well, was going to tell You about this
girl the other night. We had walked out to
9Th avenue by way of 33d street. and as l am
not familiar with that part of the town and get
lost as soon get off of Broadway, l didn'
know Just where we were. She said she know n
good place to get supper and we walked
pleasantly along. Finally we turned into n
swell looking place pretty full of swell people,
As soon az | looked at the bill of fare and saw
it was Delmouco's the cold sweat started out on
me. l didn't eat much, but the bill was $3.50

Laughing NJ the Kaiser

The Berlin correspondents of the London
Standard and Morning Post deny that the
German government contemplate raising the
taxes on beer and spirituous liquors to obtain
the money necessary to put in operation the
army bill.
The correspondent of the Standard SAYS that
the Hamburger Nachricten has published its
election manifesto. which reflects Prince Bis
marck views. The manifesto makes light of
the emperor's speech on the Tempehofer field,
and ridicules the idea that he will dissolve the
reichstag repeatedly until the army bill be
passed. Finally the manifesto appeals to the
electors to support at the polls the candidates
who are independent of influence from higher
quarters and who oppose the demands made by
the government The manifesto mentions the
army bill as "a mere cloak of a dangerous form
of governmental absolutism."
A. cabine: council yesterday Chancellor
Caprivi. Gen. Won NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. Prussian
minister of war. and Frehherr Vim Matlahan.
imperial secretary OF the treasury. are reported
to have spoken at length concerning the atti-
tude of the government toward the new reich
stag in the matter of the army bill. The de-
cisou Is understood to be that the government
shall present Il bill drawn the lines of the
Huene comprise. The money required by the
increase of the peace effective the government
hopes to obtain by raising tho taxes on beer
and spirituous liquors.
The BreSduidr ZeiiunJ SAYS that the govern
ment has postponed until July the maneuvers
of the reserves and landwehr in order that the
men may be free next month to vote. While
speaking to the Veterans Association in Hell
delberg on Tuesday evening the grand duke of
Baden urged the obligation of German citizens
TO be loyal and trustful toward the government.
