Origin OF "lIOxey POkey."

IL is an actual fact that old ice
cream is bought up by Italians and
venders from restaurants and ice
cream stands, frozen second and
third time, and again offered for sale,
to be consumed by the newsboys and
general public under the alluring til
tie OF 'hokey pokey." Almost every
night these vendors make the rounds
OF oil the hotels, and buy up whatever
has been left over from the day pre-.
vious. This cream has all melted
more or less to its original consistency
and if it is still frozen when they get
it there is little left but fluid by the
time it has reached Brooklyn and the
Italian quarter.
This melting process is the cause of
all the danger. Cream once having
been frozen and again melted very
readily turns sour. In this stage it is
poisonous. The vender of "hokey
pokey" cares little whether or not the
cream is sour. Quickly upon his re-
turn to his quarters he freezes all this
mush, and packs it away for the next
days use.
The few cases of poisoning that
have come to the public notice are in
all probability net the only ones that
have occurred, for physicians say that
many cases of poisoning have occurred
in the districts where the "hokey
pokey" vendors are that could not be
accounted for, because of the sudden
ness of death.
1t has generally been understood
that certain establishments are putting
out large quantities of "hokey pokey''
and supplying the venders, but this is
not SO. The Italians and their fami
lies are the only ones who manufacture
and cater to the consumers. New
York Herald.

Different Meanings.

An account was published recently
of suit for heavy damages arising
from lack OF punctuation in tele-
gram. A man sent the message:
"Don't come. Too late;" but the
doctor received it: "Don't come too
late," and Immediately engaged n
special train to convey him long
distance.
Mr.. Story, the sculptor, who began
life as a lawyer. tells good anecdote
which illustrates the fact that the en-
phasis which punctuates has as much
to do with determining the sense OF
sentence as the meaning of the words.
Once, when he was called upon to de-
fend woman accused OF numbering
her husband, ne adduced as one OF the
proofs OF her innocence the fact of
her having attended him on his death
bed, and saying to him, when he was
dying, "Goodby, Georgel" The coun.
sci for the prosecution declared that
that ought rather to he taken as proof
of her guilt, and that the words she
had usel were: "Goodl by George !"
a we'll known clergyman of New
York used to make n strong poiHt by
reading the verse: Good said, Let
there be light and there was light, ,"
with the emphasis on the word light,
not on was, as usually rendered.
An elocutionist of considerable note
has questioned the method of the
great Mrs. Siddons, who in answer to
Macbeth's suggestion of possible fail.
ure was won't to reply, Gail" with
an emphatic drop of the voice that
implied, "Well, then, fail, that is all
there is to it," Lady Macbeth would
Lever have got him in the world"
said this critic, "had she addressed
him in that manner. She undoubted-
ly said, Fail, in tone Of utter con-
tempt for man who couid imagine
such an outcome to his villainy. The
word should be- given in a deep tone,
with falling infection and then an
upward tendency. Brooklyn Eagle.

Oueere,t OF Lead Pencils.

A German exchange gives an nc
count of bit OF smuggling rascality
which would do credit to the sharpest
OF indicators. The Russian Govern
ment knew that counterfeit paper
money was being brought into the
country, crossing the frontier at GER q.
tain place, but for long time could
not ascertain how it got in.
At last the scheme was revealed by
an accident. The money was rolled
tightly into the holes in the centre of
lead pencils, the ends of which were
filled with graphite as usual. A case
of pencils fell from wagon as it was
being inspected; the inspector put a
pencil in his pocket, and after IA time
sharpened it and used 1t. Presently,
OF course. he came to the hollow and
pulled out counterfeit bank bill. -

A Clown Becomes q Croesus.

Barnato, the mine owner of South
Africa, is at present scattering his
millions in Paris. Twenty years ago
he was very poor, and acted as clown
in circus, with two trained donkeys.
Now he is worth $3.50, 100000. He
was performing in Kimberley to poor
houses, when, on walk, he found u
sparkling stone in the fields. 1t was a
diamond, and worth $4,000. Bar
nato bought the fields around there
and gradually looked up gems and
sold them. Thus he went on and did
likewise later with the Johanuisburg
gold mines. He is fellow-director
with Cecil Rhodes in the companies
that control the mines.
