r. Was Politics Tor Him Not to Know Ix-
Judge Dittenhocfer.
Most OF the stories worth printing
about the famous Chicago convention Of
1850 have been published, but hero is one
that seems TO be new; Ex-Judge Ditten-
hoefer was in Chicago working against
Grant and third term. Bernard Big
lin was there in the interest of Grant.
Both were old personal friends. The
night before the balloting began Biglin
and two others were appointed q COM
mittee to look after several southern
delegations, among them being the Ken
tuclly delegation.
When Biglin and his associates ar
rived at the Kentucky headquarters, they
found that Dittenhoefer had got ahead
Of them lie had the floor and was de-
livering a strong speech against Grant,
saying, among other things, that Grant
could not carry New York Biglin saw
that Dittenhoefer's remarks were having
great weight, and he realized that he
was no match for him as talSer. What
to do TO break the force of Dittenhoefer's
speech was the problem that confronted
Biglin. This was the method he Sc
lected. In the midst Of Dittenhoefer's
peroration Diglin called out in loud
voice, ''Who is that manH
"Why, he is ex-Judge Dittenhoefer Of
New York" j." said a member of the Ken
tucky delegation.
"Oh, no; that's not Judge Dittenhoe-
fer" said Biglin. Il know Judge Often
hoefer We'll This man may pretend to
be Dittenhoefer TO strangers, but he
knows better than TO try to work any
such racket with New Yorkers. l tell
you he's fraud"
Biglin's remarks made a sensation.
Suspicious glances were cast at Ditten-
hoefer by members Of the Kentucky del
egation The former got red in the face
and walked up to Biglin. Barney" he
said holding out his hand, "that's a
pretty good joke Of yours, not to know
me-"
"Joke," shouted Biglin in contempt.
ats no joke, l can tell you. viii just
oct you $50 that you are not Judge Dit
tenhoefer Of New York" Biglin flour
ished a $50 bill in Dittenhoefers face.
OF course he had to accept the chal-
lenge. The money was put up in the
hands Of member of the delegation.
Dittenhoefer hurried away to get some
one to identify him. When he returned,
Biglin had disappeared likewise the
stakeholder. After the convention Dit
tenhoefer met Biglin in the hotel corri-
dor. "What did you mean" no said,
by saying you did not know me that
night at the Kentucky headquarters"
what did you mean said Biglin,
"by saying that Grant could not carry
New York;
THAT was politics" answered Often
hoefer.
We'll" said Biglin, 'it was politics
my not knowing you"
Dittenhoefer and Biglin are still
friends.-New York Press.

Referring to the fact that the human
head is sometimes facetiously and ir-
reverently spoken Of as "a cocoanut, "
the Boston Transcript remarks that sci
entists have recently discovered re-
markable resemblance between the shell
of the fruit and the shell Of the human
brain. Then it quotes a French scien-
tifc periodical to prove that there is a
wonderful likeness between other hu-
man organs and vegetable products.
For example, the meat of the English
walnut is a close copy Of the form and
convolutions Of the brain; plums and
cherries are like the eye; almonds are
shaped like the nose; the ear is brought
to mind by an opened oyster and she'll;
in mammoth squash the entire body
may be traced; the open hand is found
in growing scrub willow and celery, and
the heart is seen in the German turnip
