the billiard room of a certain noted club in
New York. Like many others of his race.
he Is possessed OF readiness of repartee
which some of the club members find not
entirely unenviable. A few days since. at
the pool table. one of the players, having
made an execrable shot, exciting the de-
rsion of the spectators. turned to the boy
and said:

LONDON, June 6.-Another private test
of Herr Doves bullet-proof coat was made
at the Alhambra yesterday. Herr Dove
himself donned the cuirass and Capt. Mar
tin fired two shots at it from a lee-mitford
rife, aiming rather low. Dove did not APP
pear to feel the shock perceptibly Then
the cuirass was suspended against sheet
of plate glass and peppered all over, ten
shots in all being fired The glass was
hardly shaken. y Times representative VINO
was present says he then examined the
cuirass and found holes in Il, but no trace
OF splashes. He saw that the cuirass was
bent both longitudnally and across. The
form of the bullets when extracted. he said
led to the col clusion that they certainly had
not impinged knife edge. and probably had
not touched metal of any kind. They aD-
peared precisely like the button of a mush-
room.

The Refusal of n Bar Tender to Give

The Refusal of n Bar Tender to Give
Glass of Water.
London Letter to the New York Herald
On Whit Monday Lonlouer went to the
Geological Gardens armed with a ham
sandwich constructed by his wife, On ar
irving at that time Of the day when the
demands of appetite were keen he marched
up to refreshment bar and demanded a
free glass of water with which to wash
down his ham sandwich. 1t was refused
by the barmaid
Then the citizen, thirsting for water and
revenge, too the ham was rather salt,
went home and wrote to the papers, saying
that the refreshment bars had treated him
heartlessly and that any one who went to
them got himself sneered at if he asked
for water for nothing, because the bar
meanly preferred to sell whisky on ac-
count of the extra profit. At which the
refreshment contractor at once wrote back
to the papers and denied the charge He
said that he was a rata-payer with a
churcngcing wife and family UP at BriX-
ton, and that any one VIII asked for water
at his bar could get it. the zoo people hav-
ing SO stipulated in the bond.
Now every one who goes to the zoo
walks up to that bar To see if this is So.

Pedigree of the Winner.

Ladas is direct descendant Of Whale
bone, who won the Derby for the Duke of
Grafton when the latter was prime minis
ter, in 1870 Ladas is by Hampton son of
Lord Clifden, by Newminster. whose sire
was Touchstone. by Camel, son of Whale
bone.
Dir. John Corlett of the London Sporting
Times recently referred to the ancestry of
Ladas as follows:
The Newminster line Is generally con-
sidered delicate, but II is long lived. The
average age at death Of crack stud horse
is seventeen. This, however, has been ex-
ceeded by the ancestors of Ladas Lord
Clifden excepted. Whalebone broke a blood
vessel and died in 1881. aged twenty-four.
His son, Camel, was shot at Stockwell in
1874, aged twenty-five His grandson, the
famous Touchstone, died at Eaton in 1861
at the patrarchal age of thirty. Touch
stones son, Newminster. died in 1865 at
Rawcliffe at twenty. His son. Lord Cliff
den, was only fifteen when he died of heart
disease at WadhurSt-a national loss.
Hampton, the sire of Ladas, is by Lord
Clifden, and though he was foaled as far
back as 1872, the old fellow was still full of
vigor."
