From the London Spare Moments.
 While waiting for ,the train the bride and bridegroom walked slowly up and down the platform.
 q don't know what this joking and guy ing may have been to you," he remarked, ''but it's death to me. I never experi- enced such an ordeal
 ''It's perfectly dreadful" she answered. 'I shall be so glad when we get away from everybody we know"
 They're actually impertinent," he went on. "Why, the very natives"
 At this unpropritious moment the wheezy old stationmaster walked up to them.
 Be you goin' to take this train?" he asked.
 "Its none of your business" retorted ! the bridegroom. indignantly, as he guided the bride up the platform. where they condoled with each other over the i'm pertinence of the natives. Onward came the train, it's vapor curl | ing from afar. It was the last to their | destination that day; an express car nearer. nearer, it came at full speed. then l in a moment 1t whiZzed past and was I gone
 why In thunder didn't that train stopr' yelled the bridegroom. | "'Cos you sed 'twarnt none of my biz l ness I has to signal If that trains tt stop"
 And as the old stationmaster softly stroked his beard there was wicked | twinkle in his eye.

 "How are your folks Napoleon?" that you are excused of not providing fer?'' asked the judge.
 "Dey's comin on nicely, thank yer, Jedge."
 "They ain't coming on nicely said an officer. Napoleon don't do anything for them, Judge. They haven't anything to eat and no wood to burn
 Dat ain't so, Jedge," said Napoleon. .Dey has money ter burn an plenty ter eat.''
 T suppose they at least have food for refeetion?" said the judge
 .Yessir, dat dey do,' said Napoleon. "lt war only las Friday, Jedge, dat l gih dat oman CT pair ob shoes.'

 "Fo dollars CT week"
 How much do you give your w'fe?'

 How long have you been married?

 Have you any children?'

 "I believe recollect you now. Napol- con-" said the judge. Haven't you been before me several times for failing to pro- vide for your family?"
 "Yessir. bout free times

 The defendant then began a spiel about how one of his legs was longer than the other and how he had to carry pistol in the pocket over the short leg to bal ance himself.
 You may succeed in balancing your legs" said the judge. but I see your head is not quite balanced or your wouldn't manufacture such tale If your short leg was pulled it might do you good, so I will fine you $sO and costs"
