He Took the Hint,

General Harrison, in 1889, sent DR..
Bedloe of Philadelphia to Canton as
consul. During his term the doctor
was spending q month or two in Wash
ington and was largely in evidence in
social and political circles. About this
time the Gridiron club gave a dinner
and both gentlemen were guests. The
doctor told a few stories early in the
evening, and later On the president
made a speech.
Il was charmed" he said in his soft,
graceful way, ''to hear the clever anec-
dotes from our distinguished consul to
Il mean from Annoy" Then he passed
on TO other topics, but the doctor took
the hint, and the next steamer carried
him back to his post.
1t was not the first time that DR..
Bedloe had experience with presidents
at club dinners. Once President Cleve-
land was a guest at the celebrated
Clover club in Philadelphia, Of which
the doctor Is a famous wit. The Glover
ties always interrupt their guests when
they rise to speak. Knowing this, Mr.
Cleveland began:
go on, gentlemen; l am prepared
for the worst"
There came an instant's pause, and
the doctor cackled shrilly:
$50 are we."-Philadelphia Post.

Captain Becker, an official o. the

many Of the natives in a very curious
way. He bought a good loud playing
barrel organ and allowed the natives
to turn the handle. The captain was
very anxious that the people should
be married In accordance with the
Christian religion, and when it was
known the organ would be played at
all such marriages the increase in the
number Of Christian weddings was re-
markable. Things were generally ar

might be heard regularly. 1t turned
