Jolly Tim Campbell, of New York,

concerning O'Connell, and it is good

1t seems that the London Times once
declared that it would never allow the
great Irish agitator's name to appear in
its columns. When OConnell next arose
to speak in parliament the Times re.
porters threw down their pencils and,
leaning back in their chairs, assumed
the role of spectators. A friend of
O'Connell, feeling the slight, called the
speakers attention to the rule that
"strangers" must be expelled from the
gallery, and as the Times men were not
at work they we're instantly conducted

and invited him to ride in his carriage to
the scene where the enthusiastic Irish
we're to gather. A good chair and table
were prepared for Mr.. Russell, who was

Sims is particularly busy man. Not
long since he had an old friend from

business is not to be neglected these

he had warm welcome at the club
and it was time to start for dinner when
he returned to Sims at his place OF
business. The bucolic friend looked SO
thoroughly pleased that his host felt
free from all compunctions of con.
science.

people in front Of the ticket Office. and
the young man inside. whose name was

money like hot cakes, when up came .
psrspiring young man who presented
a "lithograph pass" for two. 1t was
duly punched by Mr.. sheehan. who
handed it back along with two seat
cheeks. The perspiring young man
seized the checks. leaving his 'litho-
graph pass" ON the ledge in front Of the
window. He was evidently greatly
hustered and in hurry to get back to
his girl. who was impatiently awaiting
him. Mr.. Sheehan called him back and
directed his attention to the pass.
"You cannot get by the door without
that. my friend" he said. and the young
man blushed profusely and took the
cardboard with q muttered apology.
This proceeding had evidently great

"Ay gass Ay hat bout two SANITY

young treasurer deftly selected the
pasteboards and handed them out to
him, together with 50 cents in change,
