John James Ingalls,.

When John James Ingalls, was in the senate, he was as exclusive as Conkling. After he became vice president pro tenn pore he was dignity and equity incarnate in the chair, but proud as Luoifer and willing to associate with nobody but him. self. His dignity was always marred, however, at lunchtime With demeanor of kaiser or emperor he descended the marble staircase entered the restaurant, turned to the right and stood like soldier at attention" before the oyster coupter.-
 The stalwart negro shucker would im- mediately set aside all other orders and proceed to shuok the biggest of the big select oysters, and Ingalls, would bow po- litely as though saluting the waiter as he inclined forward to take each oyster from the fork, and then, with movement quick as it was ungainly, he would throw back his head and gulp the bivalve, on each occasion making swishipg sound like the drawing of hoof from the mud. At such times MT. Ingalls, was neither eloquent nor elegant. Many time half dozen strangers, recognizing the brill. liant political iconoolast, would stop and stare at him as he went through the mo- tions described before the oyster countef.

Behind the Times.

To understand the action of the police authorities of the ancient city of Cracow, in Austrian Poland, in stipulating, when granting a license to a theatrical con- pany, that none of tho actors should appear in the uniform of the imperial army when performing Shakespeare's plays. it must be remembered that as recently as 100 years ago Julius Caesar used to be repre- scented on the English stage garbed in the uniform of an eighteenth century general and with a full bottomed wig, while Cleo patra appeared with the patches, crinoline and towering powdered coiffure affected by our great grandmothers in their youth. Cracow is merely little behind thetimes, that's all.-New York Tribune.
