From the Buffalo Express.


Two young fellows walked up Main
street last Saturday night. They had
been talking about skill at games of
cards. One of them allowed that he
could play any game of which the late
Mr.. Hoyle was cognizant. The other
was equally sure of his mastery of the
pasteboards.
81 will play you any game you choose
for money, marbles or chalk" said the
short one.
"What'll we play? ?" asked the tall one.
"Well, we'll go up here and play a
game Of pedro"
mo, amt very good at pedro"
"Let's have game of casino, then"
II never did like that game"
'I'll play you poker"
"That's game l never play"
"Pinocle?'
"The counting is too much bother"
"Cribbage?"
"Don't know that game"
"Hearts?'
''Hearts is no good"
BY this time the short one was disgust
ed. He stopped and said:
swell, you chump, what will you play
after all your bluffiug?"
The tall one hesitated for minute.
Then he said:
81 will match pennies with you"

HOW A TARIFF DEBATE SEEMS.
Senator Stanford's Little Story to Illus

Senator stanford's Little Story to Illus
trate Its Length.
From Washington Start
The late Senator StaDf ord used to tell
good story to illustrate the WEAKNESS
he felt at the eternal prolongation of de-
bate on the tariff.
"We had" he said, "a Quaker neigh
Dor when l was boy up among the
stony hills Of Albany Co.. N. Y, and he
kept everything in apple-pie order around
his place. His pride was his stone barn,
next to that his house and other smaller
buildings, and then his splendid stone
walls around every lot on the farm,
which was a large one. All this stone
came off his place. Every spring his
boys were put to work early with the
cattle and the stoneboat hauling rock
either for fence or for some building.
One year the old fellow decided to build
a new and larger springhouse for hi:
milk, and the boys and cattle went to
work hauling stone for it.
so le day Cephas, the eldest boy, came
in to say that they'd got stone enough
hauled for the new springhouse.
"The old man put on his hat and went
| out to see.
"'Thee thinks that is enough, Cephas 2
he said, as his gray eyes slowly wat.
dered over the huge pile of rocks the
boys bad got together.
"'Yes, father said Cpphas.
| "Well my son. replied the old man
thee is mist ken. Thee has not any
thing like enough. I'll tell thee how t
know when thee has enough stone fol
any building
| "The boys all gathered around him.
| SIT is this way, my lads. Thee mus
haul and haul until thee thinks thee has
twice as many as thee thinks enough
Then thee should turn to and haul al
many more. Then thee may know pre-
cisely where thee stands. Thee will thel
have just half enough stone hauled TO-
the building"
