A DIPLOMATIC AFFAIR.-A certain ia
miliar type Of citizen is cleverly des-
cribed in Frank Leslie's Popular
Monthly for April.
"Tim," said Mr.. Gilhooly, looking up
from his shovel to where his friend,
Mr.. Ryan, watched his labors from
the shade of a convenient tree, "yez
ought to go to worruk."
Tim took the remnant of a clay pipe
from his mouth and reflected a moment
before he answered: Sure, an 1 wud
if only had wurrk to do"
What kind of wurrk woul yez be
likin' now?" inquired his companion,
with a slight tinge of sarcasm in his
voice: "ridin' in a carriage or sortin'
bung holes in a barr'l factory?"
Mr.. Ryan removed his pipe once
more and spoke with dignity. II wud
like to git a job watchin' other men
wurrk."
Mr.. Gilhooly looked disgusted. $50
would ony man." he remarked senten-
tiously; but if youse had woman
and childer at home ye'd be throwin' a
shovel like the rest of US"
"Wull. 1 haven't" Mr.. Ryan answer
ed, in a tone which expressed perfectly
his opinion Of his wisdom in not sad
ding himself with obstacles to the en-
joyment of his leisure.
Mr.. Gilhooly deigned no reply.
known English actor travelling to Bir-
mingham by the Great Western rail-
way the other day, on approaching
Banbury began to feel hungry, and de-
termined to indulge in one of the buns
for which the town is famous.
The train having pulled up, he hailed
a boy, handed him siXpence. and COM
misSioned him to get two Banburys,' u
one of the two being promised him for
his trouble.
Just as the train was about to start
the boy came rushing up to the car
riage in which the now impatient actor
was seated and holding out the three
pence, exclaimed, with mouth half full:
Here's your change. sir"
Bother the change, where's the
cake?" roared the hungry Thespian.
"They had only one left" replied the
boy, "and I'm eating that"

NEVER TALKED AGAIN.

A young man of smart appearance
entered a restaurant, followed by a
French poodle that seemed intelligent
above all his race. The master select
ed a table and sat down at one end
while the poodle sat up on a chair op-
posite to him and waited. After con-
ming the bill of fare the master order
ed steak and onions. Then the dog re-
marked, And the same for me
please"
Nothing can astonish a waiter; but
a gentleman sitting near by heard the
dogs remark and played double aston
ishment for the waiter and himself
Seeing this, the owner Of the talking
dog asked Of the animal, What wine,
Mossoo?'
"Mumm, 49," replied the poodle Ia
conically, looking trifle bored. This
was too much for the astonished gen.
tleman. He rose and, apologizing said
to the owner of the dog:
1T is marvellous to what pitch OF
perfection one can bring good poodle
I've seen some good dogs in my time,
but I've never heard one talk as plain
ly as yours does. Will you take s25O
for him."
WELL" replied the young man, Il
really don't want to sell him."
Take s5O0?" pursued the other.
"Well, we'll, if you really want him
;,o N
talk in the same way"
The bargain was made, and the dog
changed hands. But as the new mas
ter was leading his purchase out Of the
restaurant by a string, the poodle cast
a reproachful look on the ventriloquist
and said, with a world Of pathos in his
words, you've sold me! You've sold
me! I'll never talk again."
And he never did.

THE WIDOW GOT THE VERDICT
"Never cross-question an Irishman
from the old sod," advises one of the
foremost railroad attorneys Of the age.
Even If he does not think Of an an
swer he will stumble into some bull
that will demoralize the court and
jury, and whenever witness tickles
a jury his testimony gains vastly in its
influence.
Yes, I'm speaking from experience.
The only witness who ever made me
throw up my hands and leave the court
room was green Irishman. A section
hand had been killed by an express
train and his widow was suing for
damages. had a good case. but made
the mistake of trying to turn the main
witness inside out.
I'm his quaint way he had given a
graphic description Of the fatality, oc-
casionally shedding tears and calling
on the saints. Among other things he
swore positively that the locomotive
whistle was not sounded until after the
whole train had passed over his de-
parted friend. Then I thought I had
him.
"'See here, McGinnis,' said I, you
admit that the whistle blew?'
"'Yis, sir; it blewed sor.'
"'Now, If that whistle sounded in
time to give Michael warning the fact
would be in favor of the company,
wouldn't it?"
"'Yis, sor, and Mike would be tisti-
fyin' here this day. The jury giggled.
"'Never mind that. You were Mike S
friend and you would like to help his
widow out; but just tell me now
what earthly purpose there could be
for the engineer to blow that whistle
after Mike had been struck
"T preshume thot the whistle wore
for the MKT man on the thrack, sor."
II left, and the widow got all she
asked."-Detroit Free Press.

DAY UNIT INSTEAD OF THE WEEK
Not Permitted to Work Beyond
Prescribed Hours-.CIerks'
Holidays.

Rock Island mail carriers yesterday
began the observance of the minim m
8-hour day rule which went into eff
feet throughout the country. Under
the new conditions, which are the
fruits of a contention of the national
organization of the carriers, the day
is made the unit of time instead OF
the week.
Formerly carriers worked As hours
a week and if on busy days they over
ran eight hours they made i: up by
working less on day when the mail
was lighter.
Now, no matter how much mail
there is to deliver no carrier can work
more than eight hours on pain of dis
missal. and il there is any mail left at
the end of the prescribed time he is
permitted to return it to the post
office.
The new rule will in sope cases
keep first-class mail away from those
to whom assigned for q period of II
hours.
