Didn't Want the Ride.

A prominent liveryman, a Repubi-
can, aud prominent plumber, a Demo
crat, made one of those novel wheel
barrow "bets" that i! their respective
parties were successful, the loser should
wheel the winner from Tenth street TO
Sixteenth street and return in blaze

1t Was Only a Slipper.

She is a roguish and jolly girl, but
being an Episcopalian, she has been
making a great effort since Ash
Wednesday to affect a certain sub
dued and demure manner. The other
afternoon the sewing circle to which
she belongs met. Her gown for the
Dccas. on was, according to the New
York World, simplicity itself-or soft
gray cashmere, with plated bodice
made Quaker fashion. Her bonnet
was quaint little gray chip poke,
trimmed with gray ribbon and one
large purple passion flower. The tie
strings were OF broad gray satin rib
bon. She glided into the room very
quietly and BECAME at once intent
upon her Lenten sewing. Suddenly
the sewing circle quiet was lnterrup.
ted by wild shrieks Of terror and the
members with one accord climbed
upon the tables and chair seats.
What was the trouble? Simply the
lemure tlittle maiden's new house
slipper. 1t was of black suede. No
buckle ornamented the instep, but in
its place was tiny mouse in high re-
lief and made of gray suede, with
bright beads for eyes, and a long tail
with a regular mouse-like curl to it,.
Now the fair practical joker is tremb.
ling lest her rector may hear of it.

Tho Women of Alaska.

There is a woman in Sitka, known
us Princess Tom, who is very rich.
She at one time had three husbands,
but has become Chrlstianized and has
discarded two. She is an extensive
trader, and has several large canoes
in which she transports goods from
Sitka to the interior and exchanges
them with the natives for furs. She
is known all over Alaska, and wears
upon her arms twenty or thirty gold
bracelets made out of $50 gold pieces.
The natives also trace their genealogy
through the female branch Of the
family, and the inheritance comes
through the mothers side For in;
stance, If a chief should die, leaving
a son, his sisters son or nephew
would succeed IN authority and NOT
his own son. The women are not
slaves, as in the Indian tribes in this
country but exercise a great deal oil
authority. The women emulate theiI
sex in civilized countries in their af.
fectation Of bright and gaudy colors,
and most of the money that they re.
ceive is invested in bright-colored
goods and shawls. Washington Star.

He Was Disguated With himself.

4 good story is told of a famous
living surgeon. A street accident
had occurred in which a man broke
his leg Passing by, the great sur
gcon used his umbrella as a splint,
bound up the leg in approved ambu-
lance fashion, and had the man
taken off to the nearest hospital.
Passing the hospital next day, it oc.
CURED to the surgeon to call for the
purpose OF recovering his umbrella,
and he interviewed the house sur.
un to that end. The supercilious
young gentleman said:
"Uh, l suppose you're one Of those
ambulance fellows"
To this Impeachment the great
man pleaded guilty
"Well, l don't know anything
about your um mbrella, but you can 90
and ferrit out the porter and see II
he knows anything about it." added
the polite youth.
"Very good" replied the surgeon;
''but haven't time Just at present
t. 90 in search of your porter. Per-
haps, if YOU hear anything Of my
umbrella, you will be good enough
to have it sent To me? Here is my
card"
The young mans jaw dropped
when he read the name OF the fam
Gus surgeon.

The Jud ge's Egg.

They tell story over on the North
Side about an old lady who was re-
Gently presented with an owl. She
had no possible use for an owl, but
she felt in duty bound to keep and
care for this one, because it was given
To her by very dear but misguided
friend. So she provided quarters for
the bird and looked at it curiously
each day. She was par .icularIy struck
by its wise look, and, as she was ac.
quainted W, tn an eminent Judge on
the Cook County bench, who always
wears the same look Of wisdom, she
named the owl in his honor, calling
it--welL calling it Judge So-and-
So" we will say,
The servant girl of Irish extraction
and persua ion was told to take es.
pecial care of the Judge, and she did
her best in this direction. But one
evening this girl startled her IN stress
as well as roomful or company by
hustl ng in at the door while pleas.
ant conversation was in progress and
eXclaiming:
IF YOU plaze, ma'am, Judge So
andSO has laid an egg"
Knowing the eminent jurist re-
ferred to, the members of the COM
pany were astOnished tu learn of this
unprecedented feat on his part, while
the embarrassed old lady fastened to
explain everything. except the fact
that she should have been so deceived
in regard to the sex of the bird. -

An Odd Reminder,

a downtown lawyer borrowed q
book from 4 friend in the same Office,
took it home, and forgot to return it
Several times he was reminded OF
this by the owner of the book, and
as many times forgot to put it in hii
pocket when he left the house. AZ
last, stung to desperation by his
friends gibes, he sat down, and, ad.
dressed 4 postal card to himself al
his residence, and wrote on the bach
Of it thus: IF you do not attend
to that matter within twenty-fonl
hours you may expect the worse"
There" he said grimly "if thai
doesn't fetch me nothing will"
1t did fetch him. 1t fetched hin
out Of late sleep the next morning
Immediately after the postman's first
visit to explain to his white-faced,
terrified wife that she was not likely
to be made a widow. He offered eH
planations-and took the book back
but he is not sure that his wife dos.
not believe that he has committed
some crime or IN some way got into
the clutches Of a blackmailer.

feeble reply.
'Tou are sure there is nothing

animation, said
"Well, there's just ae thing that
troubles me, but ldinna like to speak

Chinese Fighting Powers.

The lighting power of Chinese M.
litia, when armed with modern weap-
ons, is evidenced 10y the frequent re-
pulses and defeats whi h the French
suffered during the campaign In Ton
quin, the last being that OF Gen. Ne
grler, near Lang-Son, nine days be-
fore the FrancC-Chinese treaty OF
peace was signed, and when the
French army Of occupation in Ton
quin had been raised to $1,000 men.
These Chinese troops were merely
levies from Yunnan, Kuang-tung,
and Kuang-si, and not part of the
$50, 200 who had been trained by
European officers in Northern China.
The total army of China at that
time, including 100000 militia,
known as the Green Flag Army, scat,
tered through the various provinces,
was said to be about 1000, 900 men.
In time of necessity this force could
be largely increased. The following
quotation from an author who had
experience with Gen. Gordon's Ever.
Victorious Army" shows Cinnamon
are admirably suitable for soldiers:
"The old notion IS pretty well got
rid of that they are at all cowardly
people, when properly paid and eff.
ciently Td; while the regularity and
order of their habits, which dispose
them to peace In ordinary times, give
place TO q daring bordering upon
recklessness in time of war. Ttelr
intelligence and capacity for remem-
bering facts make them well fitted
for use in modern warfare, as does
also the cCo'ness and calmness OF
their disposition. Physically, they
are, on the average, not so strong as
Europeans, but considerably more so
than most Of the other races Of the
East, and on a cheap diet OF rice,
vegetables. salt fish, and pork, they
can go through vast amount Of IA
tiguc, whether In a temperate eli.
mate or a tropical one, where Euro
peans are Ill fitted for exertion. Their
wants are few; they have no caste
prejudices, and hardly any appetite
for Intoxicating liquors. Nine

TRYING ON THE MALE CALLER.
The Few Minutes Wait Before the Egg
pectcd One Descends to Receive Him.


There are few moments so trying
70 the personal dignity of a man as
when sitting below awaiting the de-
scent of the expected one. Such ID
the proud spirit OF man that, al
though in the easiest chair in tho
most luxurious room of the house,
he has still the uneasy sense of one
left by the tootman to cool his head
in the hall These preliminary ten
minutes which man assumes is the
usual length Of time-are sur'c enu,
says the San Francisco Argonaut, to
throw out OF gear the most COM
posed nerves. For although a man
may not have any definite intent in
his mind in paying visit, the mere
act of waiting ana the sense Of the
preparation going on upstairs seems
to give a hitherto unsuspected i'm
pOrtance to his presence in the house,
and he feels himself getting fldgety
, and uncertain. A man who has un.
iergone these experiences wants to
know why women do not have books
and papers in their drawing-rooms to
engage their visitors in waiting. He
has so much suffered in being left to
prey upon himself at such times that
ne AYERS he never goes now to call on
4 girl with.ut a book in his pocket
! Moreover, he feel that the girl her
self loses an opportunity in not hav-

headmaster of Harrow. The boz
