PROMPTLY MET.
The Boisterous bully Was Gently
But Effectively Called.
Down.

There was big. coarse-voiced fellow, with
red face, a superhuity of beef about his head
and an Unsuitable desire TO hear himself talk
that was nicely come up with in barber
shop the other day. He was fiashiy dressed
and seemed aggrieved that every man en-
ployed in the place did not rush TO help him
get ready for the chair. He had assistance
in having himself brought down to the condi-
ton for being shaved, declining to handle
anything from his hat TO his collar and neck
tie.
While being lathered and shaved he told
boisterously and profanely about the de
generacy of the times. Men who had to earn
their living didn't know their places and
acted as though they were just as good 40
those who hired them. The greatest mis-
take this country had ever made was when
it did away with slavery instead of extend
ing it to every state and territory in the
union.
After he had insisted upon half a dozen
additions and extra touches from the knight
of the strop the big man stepped from the
chair and produced fat pocketbook, while
still holding forth in his offensive VEN.
"Nevah mine dat, said the proprietor,
who had known life on the plantation in the
old DAYS 1--WE don make no age TO-
takin' de bris'les off of ANIMALS like you"
The bully was about to break loose like an
unheralded cyclone of destruction, but he
saw half a dozen BARRIERS about him, each one
wl4etting a Tazor on the palm Of his hand
and looking solemn.
How do you make money at that price@
he asked with siekly grin.
1--WE make it often ge'men, sab" and il
was wonderful to see how soon the big man
was dressed and away.-Detroit Free Press.

The Little Mangrove's Big Prize,
the Panama.

KEY WEST, Fla, April 27.-The big
Spanish steamer Panama of the Cebal-
los line, which left New York on April
20 for Havana with a number of Span
ish refugees on board and a very valu-
able cargo, including, it is under
stood, stores for the Spanish
army, was captured Monday evening
20 miles from Havana by the little
lighthouse tender Mangrove, now be-
longing to the Mosquito fleet. The
Mangrove mounts two six-pounders
and four 36-revolvers. She is COM
manded by Lieutenant-C Commander w.
II. Everett, and has crew of IS men.
The Panama is of about $500 tons.

When the Mangrove sighted the
Spaniard she ran up to her and fred a
gun across her bow The liner did not
take the hint, and second shot was
fired, after which the Panama slowed
down little. A third shot was fired
across the bows of the Panama at a

The Mangrove was then ordered to

my SON. said the philosopher, "you
know the adage,. don't you: Never put all
your eggs in one basket. Then if an accident
happens only a portion of them will be
broken. So with your money. Don't put it
all in one bank"
Yes" returned the son, who knew few
things, too, but in scattering your money
around among banks you only increase the
chances OF getting left by cashiers. "-Chica-
