Duchess and Fishwife.

An old fishwife, one of the order that
was more frequently seen dozen years
ago than today, and who rims about
barelegged in very brief tartan petit
coat, with crcel Of fish upon her shout
ders, had been often promised by an ally
in the servants hall that she should
some time zee the young duchess in her
own hon.c. She yyGs therefore posted

discomfort as the lady and her guests

was asked what she thought of the

The young ladies who have acquired
from long practice the faculty of stand
ing about unconsciously and impervious-
ly in drafts with bare legs, arms and
shoulders do not charm the gentlemen
Of today as they fascinated their fathers.
The foyer lives upon its ancient fame,
and is still curious to look at, but it has
fallen from the high place which once
belonged to it in the life of Paris
When first saw it, the gathering was
in its full glory. Almost miserable as
was the room, with its dirty, sloping
floor corresponding with the incline of
the stage), its low ceiling, and its air of
general discomfort, the scenes that went
On in it, the words that were spoken in
It, and the people that frequented it,
We're absolutely apart; nothing like
them was to be found elsewhere. The
mixture Of brilliancy, of elegance, of
dance, of sparkling talk ton the side Of
the men), Of lovemakiDg and of laugh
ter was prodigious Neither natural
nor experimental chemistry has ever
produced a more intimate compound of
fantastic elements. Ii was social and
moral synthesis in its intensest form.
At that time the babitues of the foyer
were convinced that they could not live
without it; it had become necessary to
their lives. The present generation man

Where cornoob Pipes Are Made.

Many towns have little dingy estab-
lishments where cob pipes are made as a
side issue. But in this town coo pipe
manufacture is the leading industry. In
round numbers IL, 600, 900 cob pipes ev-
cry year are manufactured by two firms
in this city. That means one pipe each
year for every voter in the United States.
All other cob pipe factories in the Unit
ed States are one horse affairs when
compared to the two concerns here.
These pipes are famous and dear as
well to every pipe smoker ON the conti-
nent. The brier root is to the Missouri
meerschaum what stoga is to a per-
fecto. Throughout the year 40 persons
are daily employed at Washington in
manufacturing corDcob pipes. One big
addition, the handsomest in the town, is
known as the "corncob addition. 1t
contains the palatial homes of the men
who have grown rich in manufacturing
corncob pipes. Washington Mo. Let

The Surprise Which Struck an English Pu-
giiist In Chicago.
He was a ligbtweight-at least he
said he could fight at 1873 pounds. al
though he looked as heavy and clumsy
as Sussex pig. He hadn't been over
the water very long, and his his were
omitted and inserted ON system that
left no doubt of his origin and ancestry.
The fighting game wasn't very good
In Chicago when he arrived, and he had
to cool his heels in idleness until his
eyes had keen, inquiring look and
SOME of the surplus beef began TO disap-
pear from around his waist band.
One night he managed to hypnotize a
saloon keeper who frequently brings off
little affairs of the kind the English
man wanted, and the boniface agreed to
get him go. ;" IL seemed quite long
time to the Briton, but match was
finally arranged. He and French Cana
dian gentleman of some little fame were
to furnish the ''wind up" at the next
Monday nights carnival Of the Cormo-
rant club.
The horAi never went so slowly as
they did during the week that the Eng
lishman waited for the night that was
to bring him glory and a settlement of
his board bill. At last the fateful even
ing came, and the man from across the
sea hied him to the saloon where in n
big back room the mill was to be de-
cided.
He stood up in the center of the ring
and bowed gracefully us a seasick ele-
plant The master of ceremonies bel
lowed, "Mr. Bill Lambkin of Birming
ham, England" and then, "Mr. Henri
Pijette of Montreal. " Somebody hit a
gong, and the carnival was under way.
The Englishman swung his right
aloft, but it never landed. There was a
duck, swirling fist flying upward. The
man from Birmingham sprang straight
up into the air as if lifted by dyna-
mite explosion. Then he fell and lay
very quiet ON the padded floor.

Abraham Ilnceln,. Peach.

A young lady sends TO the Chicago
Tribune a little anecdote Of Abraham
Lincoln. She says that good many
years ago, when her father was a small
boy, her grandfather brought Abraham
Lincoln home one night to supper. He
was then poor young man practicing
law in Woodford county, Ills
II was a cold, stormy night, and
grandma hurried around getting supper.
To have something nice. she opened a
Jar Of preserved peaches. Lincoln spent
long time over Ei3 peach aud finally
left 1t On the plate.
Grandma noticed this, and as soon as
be and grandpa had gone into another
room she went TO look at the dish. Then
she saw that instead Of peach she had
given the visitor the little muslin sack
which contained the peach kernels and
the spice. She hastened into the other
room and began an apology, but Mr..
Lincoln said:
THAT was all right, Mrs. Perry. Ny
mother used the same thing, and il was
30 good that wanted 10 &c: all the
juice out Of it.

A Curious Coincidence.

James Payn relates curious coinci-
dence: "A young engineer was describ-
ing to the occupants of a railway car
riage a late experience on an engine
we We're making up time between two
stations, and going at great rate, when
we suddenly sighted an old gentleman
walking quietly in front Of us along the
line. We screeched and whistled, but
he was very deaf, and we could not at
tract his attention. An old lady, horri
fed by the situation, and hoping there
was some way out of it, here exclaimed,
But You didn't hurt himp We Were
down upon him, ma am, like / O'Clock
Hurt him indeed Did you ever hear
such question, sir?' addressing a young
man in deep mourning, who had main
tanned melancholy silence. I have
heard the story before. he replied in
explanation of his want of interest Il,

Restaurant Nomenclature.

The walters vocabulary is constantly
being enriched. Pigs feet will be
"Trilbies" forevermore, just as surely as
frogs legs are "song and dance men. :"
German walters, as a rule, are not
accustomed to use slang, but they have
few authorizations that are very ex-
pressive.
As every one knows, there can be no
greater breach of etiquette or more sor-
rowful admission of weakness than to
order glass of water in a German place.
The restaurant has water to be used in
case Of fire, but it is never offered to a
customer. If he wishes it, he must ask
for it. Then the waiter frowns at him
and shouts, Elm Eskimop'
In one of the oyster houses man or.
dered two deviled crabs.
'.Do you want them hot or cold?"
asked the waiter
''Hot, of course"

away from him nearly fell out of his

DISLIKE NEW CLOTHES.
Trainers Of Animal. Run Risks I'm Appear

Trainers Of Animal. Run Risks In Appear.
ing In Them.
'It is a strange thing" said a well
known trainer of animals, chow many
outbreaks and accidents have resulted
from a trainer wearing strange cos
tune. Quite recently lady performer
who had made some alterations In her
dress had narrow escape. The tiger
with whom she usually appeared turn
ed sulky from the start. and at last alb
solutely refused to do one Of the tricks.
Its mistress urged and threatened to nc
purpose, and finally attempted to use
the whip. The moment she attempted
to do so the Infatuated animal flew at
her, and IL il had not been for a boar
hound which was performing with them,
Miss s would probably have lost her
life. The brave dog snapped at the tiger
and distracted its attention until his
mistress had succeeded in making her
escape. Unfortunately he was injured
by the tigers claws.
"How do you account for such out
bursts?"
THE tiger evidensly did not recognize
his mistress in her change of costume.
As rule, very few alterations are made.
The same dog always appears in the
same act, and SO on, the idea of ac-
quaintanceship and familiarity thus be-
ing maintained. Why, even if hat or
q wrap happens to lie within reach out
side the arena the animal is sure to see
it at once, and If it can get at it will
promptly tear il to pieces"
Have there been many such acct
dents recentlyi"
About a year ago lion tanner in
New York wore full dress suit instead
of his usual military costume at one of
the performances. AS soon as the lion
saw the change of clothing be made di-
rect at him. Now lions do not, like
tigers, try to kill instantly, but strike
out with their paws 20 knock their enc
my down. In this case the lions claws
caught the trainers face, inflicting Sc
we're injuries. But he is still at the bust
ness, though the scars of the struggle
are very plainly visible"
''Do these outbursts ever have fatal
resultsi''
Sometimes. Another lady performer
made an alteration in her dress that dis
pleased the tiger with whom she was
acting, whereupon the savage beast
pounced upon her, killing her instantly.
This animal has never been allowed to
perform since. Nineteenth Century.

French Boy. Taught Fencing.

In all the large schools of France
nine-tenths of the boys are taught fenc-
ing, many beginning as young as Z years
Of age. The soldiers are drilled to use
the foils as conscientiously as other ex-
ercises, and on an average there are two
or three duels every month in each regi-
ment. The men have to get the colonel's
leave TO fight. and no one can go ont
until he has served six months A prom

quenees keeps down quarrels, and the

Llncotn.s Accounting.

A writer in the Chicago News says
that in his earlier life Lincoln had a
very primitive method of keeping books.
AT the time his law partner. the Hon.
John T. Stuart. represented the Spring
field district in congress, Lincoln was
forced, much against his will, to keep
an account of some kind. The plan he
adopted was somewhat remarkable.
When he received fee, he divided it in
halves. His half he put in his pocket.
Stuart's portion he put in an envelope,
and, labelling it "Stuart's half. threw
it into a drawer until Stuart's return
from Washington.
