Thought the Rishop . Thief.

The following story is told in Chicago paper about Bishop Potter:
 The good bishop was attending gath ering of church dignitaries in Boston, and while in that city was entertained in the homo of wealthy lady who was an oid though not an intimate acquaintance. In the room assigned to him Bishop Potter found full set of silver toilet ar ticles, which he carefully packed away in the drawers of the dresser, preferring to use his own, which he had in his port manteau.s sse r=
 His visit came to O sudden conclusion, and the bishop had no time to restore the toilet articles to their proper places and in consequence the servant reported them missing to her mistress, adding that Bishop Potter must hayo taken them,
 ~Of course it was not to be for moment thought that the articles had been mali ciously purloined, but they were gone, and so was the reverend guest.
 The following telegram was sent to Bishop Potter: By mistake and in your haste you have taken toilet articles from dresser"
 To this Bishop Potter made reply over the wire: ''Poor, but still honest. Find property in third drawer of dresser"
 Of course many and ample apologies were offered and every effort made to keep tho affair quiet, but the joke was too good, and Bishop Potter was the first tor relate it.

It Cuts Queer Capers When Over Stream
 of Water.
 II am almost ashamed to tell it, and people would laugh at me if my nano were giyen," remarked one of the best known architects in the city of Louisville.
 Ut Is a fact though" he continued, "and Is something will not undertake to explain. At one time I was engaged to mako out tho plans for 2 large brickyard All went well. until I reached the'subject of water supply It was supposed that water could be foundIin abundance, as it had Ito be for brickgard purposes. Every scientific method known was exhausted In locating water vein. Too much money had been expended on the enterprise to change tho site of tho plant.
 In absolute despair waswalking over tho grounds one day when the old story of tho water twig occurred to me. At first I laughed at the idea, but it took hold on me- and conld not get rid of it I looked all around to be sure that no one was watching and then hunted for twig A peach tree fork is tho kind mentioned, but an elm tree fork was all could find. I cut it so that each fork was about 10 inches long, and the butt piece, which was no larger than my finger, about inches long. I caught hold of the ends of the forked stick, one fork in either hand, as one would in picking up a hayfork by tho tines, and held them so that the butt end assumed nearly, but not quite, vertical position. After looking once more to be certain that no one could see me and tell what might have affected my reputation as an architect, besides being good joke, began to walk and circle about where the water was supposed to be.
 'The twig did not vibrate any more than would naturally follow the jarring motion from walking, and began to walk about aimlessly, not watching the twig, for was thinking deeply and seri- ously of some reasonable plan, when sud denly my hands jerked as if they had como in contact with an electric battery, and the butt of the elm fork had curved over and downward about as far as it could without breaking the prongs never was so surprised in my life. would not be- lieye it at first As long as l remained at that spot the twig bent and could not be made to stand erect, but when l moved, away short distance it would straighten up as before Time and again walked away and back again before putting faith 5 in the experiment.. It convinced me, how ever, and marked the place. Sure enough, we found a fine supply of water, but never told how the water vein was discov- cred.
 ''It developed that this water vein fol- lowed a ledge of rock, and afterward fol- lowed up the vein with forked stick and firmly believe that I can follow up that ledge of rock and water vein from Louis ville to West Point "-L Louisville Courier Journal

The Woman Whist Player.

A noticeable thing about the woman whist player Is the fact that she invariably beautifies the game. With her all the ap- pointments of the card table are sure to be of the flttest and most tasteful, and espe- cially is she regardful of her hands These bad) advantage as at the card table, and the wise whist woman, therefore, spends quite as much time with her manicure as she does with her CaveDdish.
