A Chicago Joke.

\ night or two ago well-to-do
Chicago citizen whO lives on the west

marriage by giving fancy-dress ball
at his house. While the festivities
were il full swing two policemen in
uniform presented themselves at the
main entrance, and demanded an i'm
mediate interview with the host.

the latter, when he came to the door.
Don't you know you are breaking
the law ?" said one of the policemen.
Breaking the law? What do you
mean How ." cried the master Of
the house.
by allowing such scenes as are &c
ing on inside, calmly replied the
blue-coated one, "snd we shall have
to insist that the company be DIS
missed.
Very sorry, sir added the second
policeman, "but we have received our
instructions, and however unpleasant
it may be to you, We are compelled
IN carry them ont
This is monstrous," said the host.
"Do you know this is private house2'

who had spoken first, "and you must

the names of all present.
"My good men" said the host,
adopting a tone Of calm persuasion,
you're making great mistake. But
YOU can enter, and take what names

about the matter in the morning
The policemen thereupon stepped
forward into the ballroom, and the
dance that was in progress was stop
ped. The host briefly explained tho
situation to his startled guests, who
resented the indignity Of the Interrupt
ton with much warmth. Still, they
gave their names to the policemen,
and anxiou.ly awaited for further de-
velopments.
Having carefully entered the names
in his book, one Of tie men walked up
to the refreshment table and poured
out glass of champagne for himself
and another for his companion.

host, and he went to the men, and
said What right have you two fel-

polieemen, "but we supposed when
we were invited that refreshments
were included, and amid roar Of
laughter the two men produced their
cards Of invitation. They were well
known friends, and so efIectual had
been their disguise that until the mo-
ment Of self.disclosure no one in the
room had suspected them Of being
other than real policemen.

given out as follows:
THE German government and her
British majestys government, being
DESTROYS to maintain their interests in
China and their rights under existing
treaties, have agreed to observe the
following principles regarding mutual
policy in China:
Firstly, it is a matter of joint per-
manent international interests that the
ports on the rivers and littoral Of
China should remain free and open to
trade and to every other legitimate
form of economic activity for the peo-
pies of all countries without distinc-
ton; and the two governments agree
on their part to uphold the same for all
Chinese territory as far as they can ex-
ercise influence.
Secondly, both governments will not
on their part make use of the present
complication to obtain for themselves
any territorial advantage in Chinese
dominion, and will direct their policy
towards maintaining undiminished the
territorial condition of the Chinese en-
pire.
Thirdly, in case of another power

form whatever such territorial advan-
