There are UOre trying circumstances
which one can go through and yet survive
10 tell the tale and laugh over than being
fooled in the matter Of a blue poodle bought
from a Paris fakir. There is a Washington
dude who feels himself competent to stand
forth and give testimony upon this sub
Iect AT present he Is in possession OF a
S0-Cent piece that was SO plainly not meant
for him that he has a very guilty feeling
about retaining it in his possession. And
yet to yield it up to the proper owner of
the same, that owner from whom he re-
Ceiyed 1t only few evenings since, would
be TO bring about an explanation that is
the last thing to be desired under the cir
CumStanCeS. The dude in question is keep
ing very quiet about that especial 50-cent
piece, but all the same the story has leaked
out and the laugh is going around at his
expense.
a few evenings since, just as night fell,
the dude was returning home on the
street car when his eyes suddenly cSpicd
something that caused him to alight in q
hurry and defer his home going long enough
TO render a serviCe-a very much needed
serviCe-to a fellow being. That fellow
being was the father OF the dudes best girl
and the service to be rendered was to rad
icaIly alter the position of the same since
he had established himself luXuriOusly in
the street in front of his own doorstep with
MS DeaQ III the gutter ana hlS leet on tle
CurbStone
The position was eloquent. It was song
without words, albeit to a baCchanalian
measure, and the dude felt himself called
upon TO right things so far as lay in his
power. He is a strong young fellow, not
withstanding the fact that he happens TO
be 4 dude, and so it did not take him long
to pick up his best girls father, get him
right side up, and with infinite care iu-
crease the nature and amount of the SER
vice by hauling him up the front steps and
ringing the bell
juncture, for various reasons, by any of
the members of the household and his best
girl in particular, the dude, as he heard
footsteps approaching, thrust the disciple
of BacchuS forward and hid himself well
in the shadow. With an equally well dis
played dislike to being seen and recognized,
the person who opened the door took in the
situation at a glance. Into the darkness
there was thrust a ghoStly white hand
that groped round until j touched the dude,
when the fingers relaxed and dropped the
fifty-cent piece in his palm. Then with
equal celebrity and dispatch that sanleg no silly
hand laid hOli of the slumbereT'S coat
collar, gave one powerful pull. and land
ing him well in the hallway shut and locked
the door with a reSounding click that the
dude knew meant the concluding chapters
OF that ghostly hand would be most busi-
neSS-like ones.

The righteousness of a situation, even
whenit happens TO be in fashionable society,
among people whose wits are abnormally
sharpened for such things, does not always
strike the principals in the case.
There are far more funny things go unre-
corded than are ever set forth in The papers
and perhaps not the least OF these is the
way jn which the list of invitations is made
up for certain entertainments.
Shortly after the funeral of the late Sec
retary of State was the subject dispatches
far and near, there was an entertainment
given in Washington at which a large
number of guests were in attendance.
Pretty much all of the official element,
then left in the city, was there, but that
did not quite fill the soul of the hOste IS.
She yearned for the unattainable. After
she had greeted her guests and been
greeted by them, to such as stood for any
Washington woman into Mysteries when fur

TRENTON. July 5.-in the suit or John
h. and Frank Miller cigarette dealers, OF
Newark. y. j.. to have the business OF
the American Tobacco Company declared
unlawful. on tho ground that 1t destroys
competition IN paper cigarettes. Chancel-
Tor McGiu filed decision striking out the
additional Information. in which fl is
alleged that the Tobacco-Trust combina-
ton is injurious to the growers Of the
plant In Virginia and North Carolina. The
Chancellor holds that the supplemental
information goes farther than was ex-
pected when permission to file IL was
granted II was not contemplated. he
says, that the combination against the
tobacco-srowers would he set up further
than as to its effect on the cigarette
dealers and the public or New Jersey.
The Court OF Chancery Of New Jersey
could not be. invoked TO afford relief to
those beyond its jurisdiction
The effect OF this opinion is 20 leave
the fight OF the Messrs Miller against the
Tobacco Trust where il stood when the
original bin was FIRST 20 have the trust
dissolved as a corporation formed in vio-
lati0n Of public policy to monopolize the
cigarette trade.
