A Man whose wife Carried the Purse-A
Bachelors Wisdom

Bachelors AlhNoAn4
Two passengers on a New Haven train
approaching the city a few mornings
ago conversed together in a loud tone
that is, one Of them, who was bluff,
hearty, stout and bachelor, talked in
particularly loud voice, while his COM
panion, who was thin, meek and a bene-
dict, answered in lower tones, which
were still not inaudible after the pas
sengers in the seats near by began to
take an interest in the conversation.
No, A" said the bachelor, "they want
me tc get married, but I tell them that
I've seen enough of married people and
1 don't care to be tied down the way
most of them are. Why, there was a
man down in our place died not long
ago, and the widow came down TO get
his wages He had died ON a Friday,
and be had a weeks wages coming to
him. You ought to have seen that wild
ow when she found out how much he
got week. He had been taking his
wages home to her every week and Civ
ing it all to her to divide, as she sup
posed. But when she found out that he
had been getting So week more all the
time she seemed to wish that he We're
alive again Just for little while, but l
guess that he would just as soon have
been dead if he had had his choice then.
have heard lots Of people say that you
ought to take all your money home to
your wife, but | don't want any one
telling me how much I shall spend for
calfare or luncheon"
"Well, there is something in that, -
said the married man basely Ho was
particularly humble looking man, who
crouohod down in his seat as if ho did
not dare sit upright, but his wife was
far away, and be was emboldened, in
the condolences of talk on a suburban
train, to reveal his woes. 'tNow, do
feel badly sometimes when 1 want to
take man out to luncheon with me
and spend some money in entertaining
him. If I don't do it, cannot very we'll
keep his custom, ard if I do it, it costs
so much money that my wife, who
knows Just what receive, thinks / am
dreadfully extravagant, and talks to me
about the way in which l am wasting
money"
YES, that's just it, said the loud
voiced bachelor. If you don't spend
money you lose trade, and yet you mar
ried men are half of you afraid to go
around and spend money freely on your
customers. I know man i'll our store
who doesn't daro spend more than 50
cents for luncheon for fear his wife will
find it ont. They talk about letting your
wife spend all your money, but for my
part I'd rather spend it myself, and
that's why tell all my friends that 1
am not going to be married,
Just at this point the train entered
the Park avenue tunnel and the voice Of
the base revealer Of secrets, who did
not worthily support the part of the
married man, was lost in the rumble Of
the train New York Tribune.

KENTUCKY HuMoR.
Some Anecdotes of Humphrey MaIEhan,
Soldier and Congressman.

Some Anecdotes of Humphrey malshah,
Soldier and Congressman.
Edward J. McDermott. in an article
entitled "Fun on the Stump" in The
Century, relates the following:
Just before the war Humphrey Mar
shall was a great debater in congress.
During the war he was a Confederate
general. He was very large and stout
a veritable Falstaff. At the breaking
out of the war no wrote to an officer Of
the north and warned him not TO invade
the sacred soil Of Kentucky, Cor if he
did he would have to pass over the dead
body Of Humphrey Marshall. The north
ern officer replied: Dear general, we
won't pass over your dead body We
prefer to tunnel through.
After the war the general had a good
practice, but he was extrayagant and
often in need Of money. Once he was
logged by a collector who had been put
off dozens of times. At last the collector
said General, you have said to me
time after time! ! cannot pay you this
week Come next. Now, can't afford
to be coming here all the time. You
must fix the day. When will you be able
to pay mop ON it, sir, said the
general, edo you think 1 am aprophet?"
When the general was running for
congress against Mr.. Blank, after the
war, be tried to draw out Mr.. Blanks
exact opinions by close debate Oh the
stump. Ia such an intellectual conflict
few men could compete with Humphrey
Marshall Mr. Blank parried and fenced
as we'll as he could Finally Marshall
said one evening in his ponderous tones
and impressive manneri
"Fellow citizens, have tried to pin
Mr.. Blank down aud make him give me
a fair statement of his opinions and
principles, but he fits about SO nimbly
that it is impossible to follow him in an
argument. In lodging a debate he res
minds lne Of a bobolink fitting along
zigzag worm fence, hopping or flying,
first on one side OF the fence and then
on the other, until the mind is bewil-
dered, and it is impossible to tell on
which side he is at any moment. "

AMONG THE LEPERs.
Those of HIoIoI.ai lave Many Ways Of Oc-
eupying Their Time.

cuUyinE Iheir Time.
Here in this sea girt asylum of peo-
pie afflicted with the most dreaded of
known diseases, from which there Is no
escape but through the portals Of death,
is presented one of the noblest and
brightest pic, ures Of the glory Of Chris
tianity, with its mareis Of self sacri-
fee amid surroundings and under cir
cumstances the most depressing. These
poor victims, doomed to the ravages Of
a disease that completes its deadly work
in an average Of four or five years, the
progress Of which is marked with the
most significant and destructive preei-
sion, can alone appreciate at its true
worth the Christian heroism Of those
who are laboriDg among them, follow
ing in the footsteps Of the venerated
Father Damien, and ready as be was
to accept, if need be, the burden Of the
disease itself in their behalf And yet
unhappiness does not chill the air Of
Blolokai. Death has lost its terror by
reason of its very familiarity, and by
the silver lining their faith has given
tho cload. The Hawaiians are naturally
q light hearted people, and even the
shadow of leprosy cannot suppress for
long their buoyant temperament.
In Molokai lepers may be found en-
gagged in pleasant pastimes, and among
them one may hear the light and cheer
ful words OF greeting and see the sunny
smiles. Horse racing, which is a favor
ite national sport, is INDUCED in fra
guently, Nor arc the lepers idlersi far
from it. They work, while able, in the
cultivation of the ground and in other
ways, and altogether lead a far pleas
anter and more contented life than
might be supposed. The improvement
of their condition, as compared with
what it was when Father Damien took
up his rcsidepca Oh the island in 1878,
has been chiefly brought about by his
influence and The labors Of his success

There are few clergymen or priests
