How-dy do, John, old boy!
Cad, but it keeps me a-smin',
To see an old rooster like you
Hoppin' round, at the rate of bout half a

Four acres of bayfield,,
Seven hours after daylight!
Gosh darn my old pictur-
But you are a gray sight!
Bout what is your age, John?
1t seems only yes day or little longer,
Down by the old grist-mill, that logged YOU,
Being older and stronger;
For cutting me out
And taking my gal to ride
Me, in my first pair of thin boots,
And regular mans coat, beside!
Great gehosophat! though, wasn't Wild
wonder where Ella is now, John2
Dam-me, l b'lieve with little "sanding'
might get up an awful row, John,
Your gray hairs Notwithstanding!
What? Dead! Sixty years ago! you saw.
Now, just you look here john

TO take any your jogging
This walnut cane of mine
Is rather dull in conscience:
But, wouldn't hurt hair of thine.
Bad as hate nonsense!
Why, twas only four years ago
After two terms with James Madison.

The concert given last Monday even
ing at Lyceum Hall, by Miss Iuez GreneIli,
(soprano.l and Miss Mabel Wagnalls, Cpl
anist, was genuine musical treat. These
young ladies are both artists of unques-
tionable merit, and fully sustained the
high testimonials they bring from Europe.
Miss Grenelli has a high voice of rare
purity, and she sings with an ease that
betokens perfect control. The vcciferous
applause that rewarded her rendition of
the "Jewel Song" from Faust, testified to
the audiences appreciation of her grace
full execution and her really remarkable
head tones. She gave as an encore the
Jenny Lind arrangement of s'Comin' thro'
the Rye" Miss Grinelli adds the virtue
of clear enunciation 10 an unaffected style
of singing and she also possesses a charm
ing personality. She is pupil of Ma
dame Artot de Padila. There is every
reason to believe that Miss Greneli will
meet with unqualified success in her COM
ing tour with the "Geraldine Morgan
Concert Company"
OF Miss Wagnalls we need only say that
she was fitting associate for Miss Gre.
nelli. Her playing was clear, forceful and
artistic. She made a distinct success.
The audience seemed particularly pleased
with the Liszt-Wagner "Spinning Song"
Miss Wagnalls studied under Franz Kul
lax, of Berlin.

Expert Dealers In Live Stock DO Not

The dealers in live stock who buy aud

Bourbon stockyards must be expert i'll
guessing the weight of a live animal at
o glance In conversation with a well
known stocKInan few days ago he ex-
planned why this is necessary:
SIT would be impossible to weigh the
cattle in many cases because of the i'm
mense labor involved and the length of
time it would take, while the market
price, which is subject to constant fuo-
tuations, might easily vary from its
highest to its lowest limit while we
were weighing the animals in one Of
our big scales. For instance, today,
which has been the biggest day of the
year thus far, there have been received at
the Bourbon yards over 2,400 head of
cattle and about 700 hogs. Suppose
we had to drive all Of those upon the
scales to ascertain their weight? There

was accomplished by Mr.. Ben ID. Offutt

Mr.. Aipaugh, of Hunterdon, enjoys the
unique distinction of being the only Dem
ocratic member Of the Assembly who was
reelected this Fall outside of Hudson
County, and of being the sole representa-

of Hudson in that body. And as if this
extraordinary honor and responsibility
was moi enough, it is not at all improba-
BILE that the recount of the votes in Hud-
son now in progress before Judge Lppin-
colt may show that all the Republican
Assemblymen were elected there, aud

himself. Fortunately, he will have no.
