Good Story.
From the \. Y. TrIbune.]

Here is a story told of Patrick O'Mara, a private in Ninth regulars Not long ago he went to the colonel who was severe disciplinarian. for two weeks leave of absence.
 "Well," said the colonel. "what do you want two weeks furlough for p Patrick answered, "Me wolfe is very sick, and the children are not well, and if ye don't moind she would loik to have me home for few weeks to give her bit of assistance"
 The colonel eyed him for few minutes and said, Patrick, I might grant your request, but got a letter from your wife this morning saying that she didn't want you home; that you were a nuisance and raised the devil whenever you have any more furloughs."
 "That settles it, suppose I can't get the furlough, than2" said Pat.
 "No; I am afraid not, Patrick. It wouldn't be well for me to do so under the circumstances"
 It was Patrick's turn now to eye the colonel, as he started for the door. Stopping suddenly he said:
 Colonel, can I say something to yez2"
 Certainly, Patrick, what is it?p
 "You won't get mad, Colonel, if I say it?"
 Certainly not, Patrick, what is it ?'' q want to say there are two splen- did liars in this room, aad I am one of them. I was never married in my lOife.'

Masons Accounted For.

The Devils Lake Inter-Ocean tells this story as coming from a little Illi- nois girl who had prepared it for com mencement, under directions to write an essay on the wise man:
 "King Solomon was man who lived ever so many years ago. h the country that he governed he was the whole push. He was an awful wise man and one day two women came to see him, each holding on to the leg of baby and both claiming it. And King Solo, mon wasn't feeling right. "Why could not that brat have been twins and stopped all this bother?" And he called for his sword and was going to cut the little baby in two and give each of them a piece of it, when the one who was the mo4her of the baby said: Solomon, stay thy hand. Let that old bag have it. If can't have a whole baby don't want any," Then King Solomon told her to take the baby and go home and wash its face for he knew it was hers. He told the other woman to chase herself.
 King Solomon built King solomon's temple, and was the father of all Masons. He had 700 wives and 300 lady friends. My papa says King Solomon was warm member of the Masons, and I think he was the hot stuff. That's all I know of King Solo mon.n

The highest price ever paid for real estate in the United States was three years ago, when TT square feet on the corner of Broadway and Wall street, New York, sold for $34S.67 per square foot. But last week the owner of the corner of Wall and Broadway refused $400 a square foot for his holding. The price offered was equivalent. to $50,0O0 a front foot, or one and one fourth million dollars for an ordinary city business lot of 24x100 feet.
