Cable Kate to Hell.


 Two Norwegian sea captains were splicing the main brace over a down town hotel bar a nightor two ago. The night manager of down town cable office entered. Observing the skip pers, the man of wires said:
 If anyone comes in and wants rates to Hell, we will send them to Nor way"
 The mariners saw no humOr in the remark. Taking his word as a retlec- tiOn on themselves. the captains made angry threats. The bartender re- stored good feeling by introducing all hands. and the cable sharp said:
 suppose you do not believe it pos sible to cable to Hell. l didn't believe it once, and in consequence got the only calling down ever received in . years in this business.
 "When l was up in the Broome street office man came in one night and said. "I want to know the rate to Hell"
 "I thought he was joking, and told him to get out Of the office. We had an argument which ended in his talk ing the address of my superintendent, the late T. B. MT. Brown summoned me next day, and gave me the great est calling down man ever. had.
 You insulted patrOn,' he said by refusing to give him the rate to Hell. If anbbody asks you the rate to Hell, look it up in your book.

Sons of Ireland.

The BOer war has brought to ligh the amazing fact that England $ greatest generals are Irishmen and that English military affairs are com pletely controlled by Irishmen, says a correspondent of the New York World. The commander in chief, Lord Wolseley, is an lrishman; Lord Lansdown, the minister of war, is a Kerry man: SO is Lord Kitchener: "BobS" is a Waterford man and very proud of the tact, his full title being Lord Roberts of Waterford and Kan dahar; MT. Wyndham, the under sec retary for war and the most promising young man on the government side, is a great-grandson of Lord Fitzgerald, and his living image; Gen. French is a Roscommon man: Gen. kelly-Kenny a Clare man: Gen. Clery Cork man: and Gen. White an Antrim man.
 What a satire on human destiny these sons of Ireland fighting against liberty, justice, home rule: fighting for robbery, spoliatOn, injustice; fight ing for England. One would hardly look to Ireland for the type, but there they are.

IN A CIGAR.

A chemist says he's analysed n very good cigar And learnedly he tells us just what its ingredients are; Acetic acid, prussic, too, phenol and nicotine, Some sulphuretted hydrogen, n dash of picolene, yalerianic acid and ammonia, so he wrote, With acid proprianic and trace of creosote. But he didn't find the essence that will set mind at peace, And he overlooked the tIncture that gives care swift release, He missed the oil of happiness that keeps the fire a.gleam; And doesn't mention how the smoke will float you to a dream Of happy duys and good old friends, until in It you trace, The graces and the dlmpIes of we'll remembered face. He didn't find the reason why so many
 faucies are Wrapped mp in such Il package as that
 very same cigar; He found small sized drug stoie, but
 somehow he couldn't catch The comfort that one can secure if he
 applies n match, And though he found the acids and the
 other Querr-nnmed stuff, He couldn't trace the pleasure thai
 there is in every puff.
