PoInta ON a Lobster.

A lobster is found In the water. but
not always-in fact, some OF the most
successful Holsters that ever lobstered
were born and raised on dry land.
One can usually tell lobster by its
actions. For instance, II n young man
enters a crowded drawing room and
walks all over the feet OF the assem-
bled guests without their consent or
approval the young man at once be.
comes lobster.
The fathers Of Holsters usually have
money. In fact. 1t Is difficult to be n
real stand up and fall down lobster
unless the Holsters father has money
1t is an odd fact that many girls
seem to admire Holsters. 1t would
seem that girl ought to know better,
but she doesn't until she marries n
lobster. Then she tumbles
Lobsters have no brains If you
don't believe 1t, split Holsters head
open with an ax IL you don't care any
thing about the OK.
This world would be much moro
desirable abiding place If there were
no Holsters In lt.-Ohio State Journal.

A Cwrioua Trap.

A curious labyrinth In which ele-
plants are captured alive Is to be seen
near AyuthIa. formerly the capital of
Siam. The labyrinth is formed of q
double row of immense tree trunks set
firmly In the ground. the space between
them gradually narrowing.
Where 1t begins. at the edge of the
forest. the opening OF the labyrinth 10
more than a mile wide, but as 1t ap-
proaches Ayuthia 1t becomes so mar
row that the elephants cannot turn
around.
Suspecting no danger the wild ele-
phant enters the broad opening at the
forest end, lured on by a tame elephant.
The gradual narrowing OF the bound
aries is not observed until the ele-
phant finds himself In close quarters.
Having reached the end of the laby-
rinth, the tame elephant Is allowed to
pass through a gate. while men lying
In wait slip shackles over the feet of
the captives. The sport Is a dangerous
one. for the enraged elephants some
times crush the hunters under their
feet.

rarmt SILVER weaasmw.

According to a historian, this 10 the
way the first silver wedding came
about. 1t was in the time OF Hughes
Caput. Two of his most faithful serv-
ants, a man and a woman. had grown
gray in his employ. How could he re-
ward them?
Calling the woman, he said: Your
service is great greater than the mans.
whose service Is great enough. for the
woman always finds work harder than
q man. and therefore | will give you a
reward. AT your age know of none
better than a dowry and a husband.
The dowry Is here. This farm from
this time forth belongs to you II this
man who has worked with you for five
and twenty years is willing to marry
you, then the husband Is ready"
Your majesty" said the old peasant
''how is it possible that we should mar
ry. having already silver hairs?'
Then it shall be a silver wedding. u
And the king gave the couple silver
enough to keep them in plenty.
Such was the origin OF the silver
wedding, custom which. spreading all
through France. subsequently became
known TO the world.

A Londoner Calmly Returnea Money

A gentleman Of my acquaintance had
q curious experience of manners and
customs OF msiern England a few
nights ago at the theater. He had
taken four stalls. but at the last mo-
ment found two OF his party unable to
come. On his arrival at the theater he
left the two spare tickets at the box Of
Gee. the clerk promising TO sell them IL
he could and send the cash to him
when they were sold. He took his
place and soon afterward was gratihed
to see his two surplus seats occupied.
The individuals who took them were
attired In evening dress and bore the
outward semblance Of gentlemen. My
friend began to look out for the money
which was to come from the box office.
Presently concessionnaire entered.

friend noticed that the commisslonnaire

would 60 and make an inquiry at the
box Office. His suspicious were veri-
fed. The clerk had sent in the money
By commissionnaire. The commission
naire was called from the door and on
seeing my friend at once realized that
he had given the money to the wrong
man. He promptly went back to the
theater. my friend following to see the
fun. The commissionnaire went straight

the money and said. "'Ere. you've got

cnwnnY rOIrRNAMENT.

The largest crowd that ever wit
messed an event at Phoenix park
gathered yesterday afternoon to see
the steer tying aud broncho riding ex-
hibition composing the first day en-
tertainment OF Jack Gibson's tourna-
ment.
The steer tying exhibition was a
good one and showed we'll the fortunes
of the range The cowboy, like every
one else. sometimes meets with dis
appointment when he wants to show
OF, and even cowboys pride must
have fall once in a while. Charlie
Davis was the one To suffer yesterday.
He happened to get steer that re-
fused to stay thrown long enough Tor
anybody to tie him. He was rather
small animal. but as active as a cat.
Mr.. Davis roped him all right and
threw him repeatedly. but somehow
he failed to knock the wind out OF
him and Mr. Steer was up again be-
fore Davis could get to him After
number OF heavy falls the steer got
onto his Job and instead OF keeping
his head in one direction so Davis
could ride round him and give him the
grand fall. he turned pivot like with
the rider and refused TO be tripped.
But Davis worked hard and landed
him in seven minutes and thirty three
seconds. II wasn't much of a record,
but it Is likely that with the same
steer Others would have had no bet
ter luck. The quickest time made was
43 IL seconds by Joe Bassett, though
two others were not far behind him.
