the Hog.

The Pittsburg Dispatch tells how a
railroad hog" was punished the other
day. He had piled the space next to
him in a car seat with his bundles, and
when a gentleman asked him if any one
was to occupy it he replied that the
bundles belonged to a man who was
temporarily in the smoking car. "All
right" said the gentleman, II will sit
in the seat till he comes, /" and he pro-
ceeded to pemove the bundles. Pretty
soon the owner Of the bundles arrived at
his destination and he started to gather
up his effects. Bnt the gentleman at
once put a veto on this, with the re-
mark: "You CAM take these bundles.
You yourself SID they belonged to a
man in the smoker" The fellow got
mad and abusive, but the gentleman
was memorable.
Finally the conductor was called in,
who delivered his diotum as follows:
''If the bundles are not claimed by any
one on the train, then, by coming around
to the depot tomorrow and Identifying
them satisfactorily we will give them
to you" The mans face was as red as
fire with rage, and he shook like gela-
tin. but he could do nothing, SO, amid
the laughter of the passengers, he rush
ed out of the car to jump off just as the
train was pulling out from the station.
And he meekly came around to the de-
pot for his bundles the next day, but
swore revenge upon the man who play
ed such "a practical joke upon him.

A conversation with q fashionable
tailor and another with a swell hosier,
which | had a few days ago. have
served to considerably enlighten me
with regard to the ~fancies of the upper
ten. Twelve to fourteen guineas, / was
told, is the price usually paid by a young
man about town for a dress suit, and SO
shillings is frequently charged for a
pair of trousers. This latter seems in
credible, but it must be remembered
that the cloth is of very special make
and costs the tailor himself half a guinea
ayard. Mr.. Gladstone. by the way, pays
35 shillings for his trousers. Mr.. Rob-
ert Spencer, who has the reputation of
being the best dressed man In the house
of commons, does not object TO giving
between 40 and 90 shillings. while the
Dnke of Fife usually pays e2 los.
Eight to ten guineas is the price Of n
frook coat cut in the latest style. This
Is the sun paid by the Prince of Wales.
Eight to ten guineas is the price Of
an overcoat. while for an ordinary
lounge suit the aristocrat has to pay 8
guineas. The best linen shirts. 25 shil-
lings. Spun silk pants are sold q dozen
at a time'at the rate Of go shillings
apiece. A single silk vest costs a couple
of g~uineas. and a pair Of silk socks lbs.
Cd. Many wealthy men have a rooted
objection to wearing a pair of socks
more than once. The boots of the Prince
Of Wales cost him e8 18s. per pair. The
best braces range in price from half a
guinea to a guinea for the embroidered
article. Spats of the finest quality cost
10 shillings a pair. and soarfs for ties
12s. Sd. each. 1t must be borne in mind
that these are the prices paid by wealthy
men, OF. at all events. men who pass as
such. Long credit is the rule. and the
