LAWYERS RuSe,

One of the Oldest and best practi-
tioners at the Erie county, New York,
bar was arguing a case the other
day, and was depending more upon
his own sound logic than upon au-
thorities for success. At critical
juncture the Judge interrupted the
speaker with the remark: Yes, 7
understand, but where are your .au-
liberties upon the SUBJECT" IF
your honor please, retorted he,
briskly, Il will explain the absence
of authorities, with your permission,
by telling a little story: A young
man freshly admitted to practice
had produced in court in supporter
a motion a wealth ofauthorities.
After allowing the young man to
read page upon page Of dry decis-
ions, the judge at length Interrupted
YEARLY: You are just beginning in
practice, said he; let me give you
some advice. It does. very well to
cite authorities once in a while, but
you must always trust someWhat.to
the common sense Of tie court. 2 2

loon mounted a pyramid of six whis-
ky barrels and proceeded with aham-
mer and iron bar to punch open the
bung of the topmost. Hehad struck
several blows when the head of the
barrel flew out followed by: a. column
of blue fame and attended, with a
noise that sounded like the firing of
small cannon. The hustler Was
blown out of his positions, but eseap~
ed unhurt. In an instant the. door
against which the force of the flames
had been thrown blazed up, and
the next moment the floor over
which the whisky had spread was ON
fire. An alarm was turned On to- the
fire department and they turned out
in splendid time. but t11eir. services
were not needed as Billie Kingdom,
the proprietor, with tho. assistance OF
volunteers, had succeeded in smooth
ering out the fire. Regarding the
cause of the explosion, Mr., Kingdom
said: 81 am completely at sea- The

Youthful lmitatorS:,

A tremendous noise came from the
room where the boys had been play
ing quietly for an hour or more. The
father hurriedly laid aside his news
paper and started for the scene of
the disturbance. He paused at the
door a moment to listen. Terrific.
humping and hammering sounds
reached his ears, mingled with con-
used cries and screams of rage. and
he heard voice shouting above the
din:
'sYou half-baked chunk of cheap
hog meat! You low-lived son, of a.
gun! Take that back or I'll bloWthe
whole top OF your head off Stand
out OF the way there, you walking:
skeleton. I'm going to paralyze
that scoundrel behind you"
With his hair standing on end the
father rushed in. Willie was seated
at desk made of a barrel turned
upside down and was pounding it
with mallet taken from his tool
chest. Johnnie and a lot of neigh
bors' boys were standing on chairs
and inverted buckets ranged in semi
circles about the room, and all were
shaking their fists and yelling like
Indians.
The noise ceased.
@'You needn't be scared, papa" ex-
planned Willie, ''we're only playing

He Was Not a Canary Bird.

Detroit rec Press.
They were bride and groom, and
she was a guileless thing who had
been brought up in the mountains OF
Pennsylvania. They had come to
Atlantic City on their tour, and, like
every body else, took the trip down
to the inlet, from which all the sail
ing and fishing boats go out. A
party had just come in with a pail
full OF crabs, and the old grandfather
of crabs was on top of the lot. He
was chagrined, mad, red-hot, and he
was aching to prove to the world
that a crab could die fighting.
The guileless bride had never seen
an ocean era before, and she uttered
little screams of wonder and delight.
Nay, more, she bent over and lifted
old grandfather up in her plump
white hand for closer examination.
His chance had come. He took hold.
In one minute her shrieks had as
sem led 500 people, and ten seconds
later she tainted dead away and up
set her husband over a bait-box. A
fisherman out with knife and
stabbed the crab in the back, and cut
him loose, and carriage was called
and the bride with the bleeding fin
ger was born sobbing away, never,
no never, to- pick up an old crab
again to see whether he was 4 but
terhy or a canary bird.

Bridget's Originality.

'Bridget,'' said I, after she had
been initiated into her new duties as
chambermaid, "call me at six O clock
tomorrow morning, and prepare a
bath for me.''
Next morning, adds the writer in
the Philadelphia Times, atsix O'Clock
sharp there came a knock which
startled the occupants of the en-
tire house, and Bridget's dulcet voice
xclaimed: "Yez needen't wake up,
sor. The water is that cold yez
couldn't battle at all, atall?"
One morning the letter-carrier
brought a letter whose destination
was doubtful, as the street and num-
Der were illegible. He tried at our
house, and waited to be informed
whether ''Mr. Jones lived within.
Bridget gave the letter-carrier seat
in the parlor while she carried the
missive to my wife,, "No, Bridget =
said the latter. :''the letter is not for
us. Put it upon the mantlepiece and
when the carrier comes in the morn.
ing give it to him." Faithful to in
structions, Bridget placed the epistle
upon the shelf, and, going to the i'm
patiently-waiting carrier, said: "Yez
needen't wait no longer. It's on the
fireplace, and if yez would stopin to-
morrow yez can get it back again,
but not BEFORE"
My wife had occasion to send a note
to a friend living some miles away.

replied Biddy, land disappeared. When
the note was written the girl was not
to be found. Herrman's vanishing
lady conld not have dematerialized

Biddy reappeared clothed with smiles
and perspiration. "Why, where have
you been?" asked my wife. "Didn't
I tell you wanted to send you out

was the offended reply. ..-~
