.his lady for tie past five minutes. l man went back to his seat beside the lady
 Then the tough arose, swaggered over to the couple and leered down at the young man. ~I suppose you think you're, d--d smart, don't you,3 he said. Now, wat yer 'goin' t do about it, hey?"
 Itwas crisis. The young man with the girl hesitated to precipitate a. vulgar fight in cabin where his own; sweetheart and other ladies were sit- ting. While he hesitated-in the in- stanst following the ruffianly remark of the tough--a step sounded from the upper end of the cabin and the stately figure of an exceedingly tall, hand some, well-built gentleman, with an "old schoof' dignity in his manner, appeared on the scene.
 Young fellow" spoke the stately figure, in voice like the hero in the play. 'I have watched your conduct. ''i He looked down witheringly on the tough. s'I have observed it carefully and It has gfleved me a good deal. | have waited to see how far you would go. You have gone as far as can per- nit. You will now leave this cabin. On second thought, will put you out. " And the stately gentleman with the hero voiceFtook the cad by the ear and led him down the cabin.
 At the door he paused and added: ''On further thought, will kick you out!' and pushing open the door he foreibly kicked the shriveled and whimpering tough into the darkness of the outer deck. When the boat reached the dock the ejected party was seen to scamper out of sight in the briskest possible manner. It is the testimony of the young couple that the figure and voice of this courtly stranger will finger in their memory for the re- mainder of their natural lives as some thing all but divine.-N. Y.

Perfectly Willing to Lend His Horse in
 Spite Of Tnany Drawbacks.
 They live on Drexel boulevard and are neighbors. One of them, the tall man, owns Morse and buggy, while the short man doesn't. The other day the latter feltsas though drive would do him good, and he went over to the tall mans place to borrow the rig.
 You are perfectly welcome to it, ' said the owner. ''I believe in being neighborly and accommodating, and. you can just go to the barn and take the outfit whenever you want it. But I think I ought to tell you, to prevent accidents, that the horse has fits. Sometimes when he's trotting along he'll rear up and fall back in the buggy and,carry on awful. He killed his last owner that way"
 Well, if that's the case, perhaps I can getanother horse. I-'' Don't think of it. I will feel of ifended If you don't take mine. I like to be neighborly, and the horse needs exercise. He has the blind staggers, you know, and sometimes he'll jump off bridge, or run up against loco motive. He killed a couple of old ladies a year ago by disputing the right of way with a freight train. But he's a good horse and know you'll enjoy driving him"
 ''I guess I'll go to livery stable and
 -,
 Don't do anything of the kind. Times are hard and you're perfectly welcome to my horse. Only when you're driving him you'd better re- member that if he sees telegraph pole he is sure to become unmanage- able. It is singular, but that horse can't bear the sight of a telegraph pole. He just lies back in the harness and kicks the buggy to pieces and then throws himself down and rolls .overon the ruins. He killed my uncle last spring. what? You won't take himg Now, that's too bad. You're justtas welcome as the flowers in May andZ-"

Bonnets Are Little.

Bonnets this winter are dfminutive affairs indeed, and elderly women who seek in vain for genuine protection for the head are obliged to take up
 with the empire round hats and have strings added to give them a bonnet teffect. Otherwise. when velvet instead
 of felt is desired, the millinen is asked ! to add brim and back to the bonnet , frame before 1t is covered, the 1850 and
 1874 shapes being thus enlarged to make bonnet proper. Fur and lace are used on the little French bonnets ]. and toques of the season, and they are remarkable for their lack of height. One loop of lace or velvet, a stiff quill or two, an aigrette or trio of mink or sable tails are all that relieve the flat effect. Blue, pink and black velvet toques with gold crowns for edginRs
 and sable tail aigpettes are exhibited

A Pocket Night-Lamp.

To instantly obtain light sufficient
to read the time by watch or clock
by night, without danger Of setting
things on fire, is an easy matter. Take
an oblong vial Of the clearest Of glass,
put into it piece Of PHOSPHORUS about
the size Of a pea, pour upon this some
pure olive oil, heated to the boiling
point; the bottle is to be filed about
one-third full, then cork tightly. To
use the light remove the cork allow
the air to enter, then re-cork. The
whole empty space in the bottle will
then become luminous, and the light
obtained will be good one. AS soon
can be increased by opening the bottle
and allowing fresh supply Of air to
enter.
In very cold weather it is sometimes
necessary to heat the vial between the
hands to increase the fuidity Of the
oil, and one bottle will last whole
winter This ingenious contrivance
may be carried in the pocket, and is
used by watchmen in Paris in all the
magazines where explosives or infam'
mable materials are stored.
Siam Afraid or France.
Dispatche from Bangkok indicate

EX-BALIFF LENARD.
AN OFFENSIVE OFFICER.
From the American.

From the American.
A stumbling block in the way of the
colored barrister is the humiliating and
insulting manner in which he is some
times treated by one of the subordinate
officers of the court. This gentleman S
brief authority was recently dirseted
by an inordinate prejudice against a
colored member Of the bar. = The inso-
lence of Office is an incident to some
members of all races. A few years a.
90 a Negro named Lenoard, in his Off
cial capacity as baliff, took great pains
to secure the white practitioners good
seats within the rails of the court room
but as for those of his own color. he
showed them but little, if any official
courtesy. A few days ago another gen
tleman belonging to the moro fortunate
race, and much higher in the official
scale than WAS the coloTed inSOlent,
Was guilty of at least one act Of gross
dlScourteSy to a colored member of the
bar. The colored barrister being desi-
rous of hearing the great legal lights
on both sides in the celebrated Brecken-
ridge-Pollard case then on trial, had
been as required by the genial door
keeper certified to by the Clerk of the
Court as being member of the bar.
and had appeared as counsel even in
capital cases of the bar. He had attend
ed more or less each day the setting
in the case OH trial. AS this colored
barrister stood in an orderly manner in
the court room upon the occasion in
question, the officer referred to, ap-
preached him very roughly and deman-
ded to know how he had got into the
court room. He was shown the colored
attorneys business card and informed
that he had been certified to. Disre-
garding all this, the officer ordered the
lawyer out, Ond began to eject him.
On reaching the door the keeper inform
ed the officer that the gentleman was
a member of the bar. This gentleman.
ly CD officer then walked off without a
word Of apology for his ruffianly treat
ment Of a we'll behaved member of the
bar. L am pleased to state that the
Judges of the Supreme Court have un-
unanimously elected this gentleman to
the wardenSbip of the District Jail, a
position in which his rough manners
will be in better place. 1t is to be hop
ed that his successor like his predecess-
or, will be more gentlemanly toward
colored members of the bar than was
the officer in question.
