He Was Accommodated.

He was a dudish little man, but he
had a loud voice, and evidently wanted
everyone to know what he said. He
and a companion, who, be it said to
his credit, seemed ashamed of the
company he was in, stood in the hotel
rotunda last Saturday night. The lit
tie fellow was talking about Ireland,
and he said many hard things about
the country and the people. A great
big man stood near by listening to the
little fellows vaporings. He merely
smiled until the little fellow said in
a very loud tone: "Show me an
Irishman and I'll show you coward"
Then the big fellow slipped up and,
touching the little fellow on the
shoulder, said in a heavy, bass voice:
"What's that you saidY"
Il said show me an Irishman, and
I'll show you a coward" said the little
fellow, whose knees were shaking I'm

"Weql, Pm an Irishman," said the

through which he could crawl, "Pm a

A Dog Who Didn't Golf.

The first contest of the crack players
of newly opened golf field out west
was sadly interrupted by the obstinate
conduct of mean bull terrier. He
took possession of the second hole, and
defed dislodgement. AS he is a rO-
bust terrier, with a full set Of
large and we'll preserved teeth,
it was deemed unwise to attempt to
dislodge him by force. Diplomacy was
substituted, but it didn't work. He
resisted all the usual terms Of en-
dearment, as well as the promises of
tende steaks and seductive bones. In
addition to guarding the hole, he took
possession of a ball that happened to
roll near him, and which he worried
from time to time with low gutteral
remarks.
At last accounts the dog was still
holding the fort, and the discouraged
golfers were debating whether they
had better engage a skilled marksman
to shoot the brute or at once take
measures to lay out a new golf field
