4 Little lSit Damp.

Rain? Well yes; we had several
sprinkles since our last Issue While
other sections OF the country have
been wrestling with cyclones ana
wind storms we have been enjoying
some very refreshing dowup0urs Of
rain.
The editor has been unusually in
terested in the rains OF the past we.,,.
We had just finished a cellar red,
for the stone mason when the wU--y-
spout of Saturday came along and
made tishpond Of it.
We felt very sore and considered
that the weather clerk had not
treated us exactly right, but when
we began to think how the farmers
are always complaining about a vet
spell, a dry spell, or the army worms,
we concluded that we must bear our
misfortunes manfully, so we craw.td
down into the cellar and began tC
throw out water BY hard work, and
with much sweating and putting We
succeeded in getting the cellar in shape
to catch the water of the heavy rain
of Tuesday. Some may wonder wly

Had an Eye to Business.

A funny joke, and all the more pal
atable as it's truth can be vouched
for, occurred in a prominent church
in Indiana, says Yours Truly. 1t
seems that a worthy deacon had been
very Industrious in selling q new
church book, costing seventy-fve cts.
At the service in question, the
minister, just before dismissing the
congregation, rose and said; IAN
We who have children to baptize will
please to present them next Sab
bath. The deacon, who by the way,
was little deaf having an eye on
selling the books, and supposing the
pastor was referring to them, imme-
diately jumped up and shouted; "All
you who haven't, can get as many as
you want, by calling on me, at seven
ty-fve cents each, "

On the Bowery," the novel comedy
Drama which Thomas II. Davis and Will
lam I. keogh introduced to theater-gosrs.
IS coming 10 this city next Monday. As
everybody knows, this play treats with
remarkable success OF lie IN various par 3
or New York. especially in that part of
New York which has Steve Brodle for q
prominent character, and Mr.. Brodie HIM
self has much to do with the action. Both
1ne.o-dramatic and comic possibilities OF
New York life are dealt with. Events fol-
lowing robbery and false accusation on
circumstantial evidence constitute the
serious story Of the play. The funny ele-
nlent OF the piece consists mainly OF the
episodal doings Of a lot OF queer people
OF the kind that one may see on the Bow
cry almost any night. Perhaps the most
striking sensational events OF the play are
Brodie's jump from Brooklyn bridge and
the daring rescue from the fire on the
East river pier. Entirely new specialties
ana new Bowery features are introduced
this season.
