A Mild Hint.

The frisky kid who selects the post-
office lobby as a rendezvous for his
giddy pranks is not the only nuisance
met with daily during the distribution
of the mails. There is the Individual
who CLUES himself to his postoffice box
from the beginning and sticks to il. like
a sick kitten to bowl of milk, until the
last piece of mail is distributed, heed
less OF the fact that there are others
who have boxes in tho vicinity. who
would like to get pull at them occa-
slonally; and there is the fellow who
deliberately: draws ont his mail, one
piece at time, carefully reads the ad-
dress on each package or letter and then
turns 1T over to See il there is anything
written on the back, while perhaps half
dozen or more persons are waiting for
him to get out of the way so they can
reach their mail; but the fellow who ia
entitled to take the cake is the one who
chooses the opportunity when the post
mistress and assistants are busy distri-
putting mail, to open the door of his P.
y. lock box and convey series of wise
and otherwise messages to the busy off
cials through this impromptu pneumatic
tube, to which the impatient public is
forced to be witness; and "tirere are
Others" but we will treat of them later.

Comment is made that w. s. Gilbert

ing comedies at present, although he
still cherishes the hope of going back
to comic opears. His last few at
tempts in this direction have not been
successful.
1t is said by those who know that the
real reason for Julia Arthur leaving the
company of Sir Henry Irving was that
Ellen Terry was jealous of the young
Americans popularity. Miss Terry
keeps an eagle eye out for all possible
aspirants for her fame.

to assert that. subject to certain con-
ditions, three points may be- conced-
ed-Hnaheiy, reopening of the En-
dim rnints, the holding of o1ie-tifth
silver in the Bank of England reserve
and the raising of legal tender silver
from two pounds to five pounds.
Such assertions may be premature
and even incorrect. but they come
from tob good quarter to be wholly
ignored. Bar gold was bought in
small amounts in the chief market
here today. and the general belief is
that it is destined for America. The
demand for gold for this purpose
threatened the withdrawal of eagles
from the Bank of England at one
time today. There were small pur-
chases Of gold in the open market to-
day for New York. This is not gen
orally known. Everyone says the de-
mand is for the continent. As mat.
ter Of fact Germany was the princi.
pal buyer today, but New York was q
bu er also.
