peace to succeed Judge Camp, When

two, they would make no appointment,

offices are both salaried ones. In con-

scruprs, Joke on His Dog.

There IS a clerk in the War Department
at Washington with keen sense OF hui
NOR, who, for the purpose of ofidentification,
I will call Daniel Webster Scruggs. He is
what people call IL funn man. Hespends
about half the time he should devote to his
official duties thinking up conundrums,
puns, practical jokes and other disagree
able things When his fellow-clerks find
mucilage in their ink bottles and crooked
pins in their chairs they always bless
Scruggs, but he has been warned by the
chief of his tlivisi on so many times that
he is less humorous in the office nowadays
than he used to be- But at home, with his
wife and six children, there is no one to
restrain him, and the neighbors are good
natured. Mrs. SCruggs is patient, long
suffering woman, and says she is so used
to it, that 'she doesn mind him any
more" She is nursing Scruggs just now
with devotion that shows her genuine af-
fection for the man who has been a per
petual torment during seventeen years of
married life. For Scruggs is victim of his
own hunor.
About a week ago Scruggs conceived the
idet of shaving off his abundant whiskers,
and one evening after office hours, without
saving a word about his intention lie left
them on the floor of a barhershop. When
he got home he thoughth he wolld have some
fun with the children. So he turned his
coat and hat inside out, let himself into
the hallway of his residence with latcI
KEY, and. hunchng up his shoulders like
tough, made some queer noises. The chill
dren rushed out of the sitting-room, fol-
lowed by their dog, which is about as big
as a flour barrel, and stopped with alarm
as they saw what they supposed to be u
tramp But the dog was not at all fright
ened He sprang at the stran-
ger with an eloquent growl, and
in an instant he and scruggs were
rolling over and over on the hall floor
The children screamed, aud their mother
came hurrying from the kitchen. ScrugGs
shouted and coaxed and swore, bit the dos,
didn't see the joke, and didn't recognize
his voice, and Mrs Scruggs and the oldest
boy were long time separating the COM
batants.
the wounds and bound them up carefully.
He saws that Scruggs ha q narrow escape
and will not be able to return TO his duties
for a fortnight The clerk in the office say
that it was good enough for him. New
