SAMPLES OF IRISH WIT.
Reputation for Putting People
in Good HumOr.

Two laborers set out from Wexford
to walk 'to Dublin. By the time they
reached Bray they were very tired with
their journey, and the more so when
they were told they were still 12 miles
from Dublin. 'Be me sowl," said one,
after little thought, "sure, it's but six
miles apiece! Let us walk on"
During a discussion at meeting of
the Trinity College Historical society
upon the slight consideration attached
to life by uncivilized nations, speaker
mentioned the extraordinary circum-
stance that in China if man were con-
demned to death he could easily hire a
substitute to die for him. And" the
debater went on, II believe many poor
fellows get their living by acting as
substitutes in that way!"
A child went crying to its mother and
reported that it had swallowed button.
swell, well, look at that now!" cried the
woman. "Begor, l suppose the next
thing you'll do is to swallow button
hole!" This reminds me of the graphic
description by beggar man of his tat
tered coat: Faith, yer homer, it's
nothin' but parcel of holes sewn to-
gethcr."
A curious popularity of the Irish ma
ture is the wide limits to which relation

proposed for my sister Kate"

tone. "You see, he may have an enemy
who really intended to harm him in
some way, week ago, and in such
matter a man ought to be put on his
guard"

bocket for his gloves and drew them
out in a disreputable wad. ...

AS the two friends turned into sight
of the twelve-story hotel, they saw in
front of it a long line of fashionable
carriages from which were alighting
men and ladies in evening dress.

said; "but all at once iv has occurred
to me that haven't given my anony-

He says Caruthers has been murdered
and we haven't really bit OF actual
proof that he is lying"
But" cried Lampkin, demonstrating
ly, "the letter was written week ago,
and to-dny's paper says he was at the
Horse Show last night"
"Papers are not infallible," said
Hendricks, ia PIPING his call bell. "Some-.
thing in the general tone of this COM
munication makes me think that the
writer really meant to furnish me with
grewsome exhibition in Caruthers'
apartments. My invitation comes late,
but am going to accept"

change of tone.
This time, as the detective took the
paper and began to open it, all his GUS
tomary calmness and deliberate
shrewdness seemed to settle on him.
For a moment his penetrating gaze
rested on the "Notes of the Horse
Show" Then he grunted significantly
as he took up pencil and drew circle
around short paragraph.
"There!" he calculated. "You see
this paper says Caruthers did not oc-
cupy his box last night; that, as he was
out of town, the box was courteously
! extended to Count Bantinni and his
party-Mlss Huntington, her aunt, and
other ladies'"
| Lampkin rose, an incredulous express
sion on his face, and leaned over the
paper. He started to speak, but Hen
bricks had suddenly dropped his hand
on the call-bell with considerable
force.
"What is it, sir?" asked the boy, from
the portals of the door leading into the
ante-room.
"To-day's Sum-" said the detective
giving his friend strange look.
When the boy had brought the pa

"No mention of Caruthers here what

"Do you want me to leave?"

coat.
"Come walk over to the Palace hote

"Are you going to make inquiries

NAVAL IMpUDENcE.
The Humorous Expedient of an Eng
lish Naval Offlcer to Secure
Paint for His Ship.

Fifty years ago the allowance of paint
in the British navy was very small, and
sometimes the officers had to pay large
sums in order that their ships might
maintain decent appearance. One of
themresorted to humorous eXpedient,
either to soften the heart of the navy
board, or if that proved impossible, to
express his opinion.
Sir John Phillimore painted one side
of his old yellow frigate black and
white, and used the rest of the black
paint in printing on the other side, in
large letters: mo more paint!"
The navy board wrote to call his at
tention to the improperly of his con-
duct, end signed themselves, as they
did, officially: "Your affectionate
friends"
To this Sir John replied that he could
not obliterate the Objectionable letters
unless he was given more paint. and
signed himself, in turn; Your affec-
tionate friend, John Phillimore."
The navy board then called his at
tention to the impropriety of the sig
nature, to which Sir John replied, ac'
knowledging the letter, stating that he
regretted that the paint had not beer
sent, and ending:
Il am no longer your affectionatt
friend, John Phillimore."
His frigate was allowed to retain hel
original yellow; and perhaps the navy
board did right thus to punish Sil
Johns impertinence.-Youth's Com
Danion.

A Devoted Indian.

Baron de Malortie, German who had

to Sir NJ. Grant Duff, who records it in

Indians devotion to his leader:

hours before their execution was to

and said: Gen. Mejia, | have been
three times your prisoner, and three
times you have spared my life. My
aide-de-camp is at the door with a
horse, and you are free to go where you
please"
"And the EMPEROR" asked Mejia.
"Will be shot in two hours" an
swered Alatorre.
"And you dare to come to me with
such proposition! Leave the room!'
rejoined the prisoner. Alatorre did So

adorned with costly paintings and
sculpture. Through an open door they
had glimpse of the white and gold
ballroom. The music of Hungarian
orchestra swelled out from a balcony
overhead, and throngs of men and wom-
en- passed to and fro through the cor
ridors. Hendricks sank into big
chair near the doorway leading into the
Turkish smoking room, and by down
ward motion of his hand signified his
desire for Lampkin to sit beside him.

beautiful spectacle. The cruiser
