A JOKE ON WASHINGTON.
His Wish to Steal Away Cnnoticed Was
Frustrated.

Frustrated.
Washington was not churlish, but he
had that preference for being unob-
served that develops at times into a
longing in a man whose life IS spent
in public, says Harper's Magazine. He
quilted the Macomb house on the
morning Of Aug. 30, 1890. The servants
were instructed to steal away at dawn.
to have the carriages and luggage over
the ferry at Paulus Hook by sunrise.
BY candlelight, Mrs. Washington. the
children and the secretaries assembled
in the morning room. The president
entered, pleased with his strategem.
He was enjoying in prospect his con-
cealed departure. Immediately under
the window suddenly struck up on the
still morning air the blaring, vigorous
notes OF an artillery band. From the
and byways scurrying people
appeared. no witness his nrst stsp out

Turkish HumOf.

The Turk is proverbially sedate. His

doubt his capacity for wit or for rel
ishing joke. To disprove this opin-
ion, Mr.. Buckley, author of Travels

ing specimens of Turkish humor: Said

your lip so crooked?" To which the
camel replied: What is there straight
about me that you should take excep-

Turk to borrow his donkey. The own
