Made the Duke Feel heap.

A good story is told Of the second Duke
of Wellington, who, though far from be-
ing stingy, was in many odd ways eco
nomcal. He discovered one day some
champagne which he considered, and
which doubtless was, quite good enough
for ball supper and which had the adj
vantage of being extraordinarily low in
price. He ordered the quantity required
and was rejoicing in his excellent bar
gain when. on opening one of the papers.
he encountered the following advertise
ment: "rry our celebrated champagne at
80 shillings dozen, as ordered by his
grace the Duke of Wellington for his
forthcoming ball at Apsey House."

Clyde Mattox has killed another
man. At POnca City last evening at
just half past seven at the White
House Club saloon Lincoln SWINE,
and an Usage ranchman and Clyde
Mattox quarreled. Swinney was the
aggressor. The quarrel progressed to
a dangerous pitch, the men closed and
Clyde stabbed and killed Swinney
Clyde Mattox for years cut a great
figure before the Wichita public. He
was tried for the murder of a colOred
man in Oklahoma City and was SEN
fenced to death. His exciting escape
from the Wichita Jail is well remem.
bered. He was re-captured and taken
back to Wichita. His mother, Mrs.
8. W. Hatch, by her indefatigable
efforts, finally persuaded President
Grover Cleveland to commute his
sentence TO one for Imprisonment for
life. Clyde Mattox pined away iu
prison, apparently from consumption
aud finally Mrs. Hatch prevailed up
on President Mckinley to pardon
him. Once out OF prison Clyde Mat
tJx pledged himself to lead differ
ent life. He first visited hls brother
in Old Mexico aud then came back to
Mrs. Hatch's farm near Pouca City.

Offers IN THE WATER.

Offers are properly branch Of the
weasel tribe and do not differ from the
sable. Though their toes are webbed
they can climb, dig, run, have sharp
teeth and if they want can kill and eat
rats, birds and rabbits.
The speed of an otter under water
is amazing. fish have no chance
against them. In some places in India
offers are kept by the natives to fish
for them. They are tied up to stakes
like dogs, when not working, wear
plated straw collars and seem happy.
In time of famine offers have been
known to attack hen roosts, ducks and
even lambs. In the water they swim
SO easily that scarcely a ripple marks
their progress. Offers do not take
naturally to the water as do young
ducks, but have to be taught to swim
by their anxious parents.
Offers are very amiable and m0ke
good pets. In disposition they are
something between a kitten and a
dachshund, and the only complaints
against them are that they will not sit
still nor go to sleep like a dog or cat,
and that when once they get into the
water it is hard to make them come
out

THE WIDOWS REVENGE.

A story that people are laughing
about concerns young state depart
ment man. He is a self-made man, and
there is nothing about him to disturb
in the slightest degree ones convic-
ton that gentlemen are BON, not
made. Of late he has been markedly
attentive to lovely young widow.
The widows well-bred Encouragement
of his addresses has been wholly lost
on him and recently, hearing from an
acquaintance that she was to celebrate
her birthday at such time, he had
the impertinence to send her an ex-
pensive present of an exceedingly
impertinent kind. It, or rather they,
were in satin box, and their buckles
cleaned with gems. The widow wrote
a note Of thanks and before she sent
it showed it to somebody, who told the
story. This is what she said:
'My Dear Mr.. Brasil" she began.
THANK you ever so much for remem-
bering Fido's birthday. He needed a
new collar and the one you sent looks
so we'll on him. 1t was so thought
full of you to send two, for Fido is SO
bad about losing things"
And then that vindictive woman
signed herself, yours Sincerely
