One evening the queen sent an equer-

her majesty that we should be grateful
for little applause when the specta-
tors are pleased"
Back went the cQuerry and conveyed
the message. At the end of the act
there was a slight suggestion of hand
clapping and exceedingly gentle foot
tapping. James Wallack, who knew
nothing of the message sent to the

pricked up his ears and inquired,
What is that?"

The Promenade Stopped.

1t is related of Captain Deering that
once when he was in command of q
steamer running from Portland to st.
John, he was unable to sleep on ac-
count of the ceaseIess tramp, tramp of
some star gazing passenger on the hur-
ricane deck overhead. After turning
and twisting in his berth for half an
hour, and the tramping still continuing,
Captain Deering, enraged at the loss of
his sleep, rushed out in his nightshirt
and climbed the ladder to the hurricane
deck.
The pr0menading passenger was
frightened half out of his wits by the
specter in white climbing up the lad
der, but was somewhat treasured when
the spectcr baWled out:
Say, you; where are you goingY
''TO st. john" replied the prOmenad-
er.
Got a ticket?" pursued the ghost.
'Of course | have"
"Well, then, you COMPOUNDED fool, go
and lie down sOmeWhere-yOu needn't
walk all the way to st. John" roared
the cnraged Decring, and the prone
nader stopped right there.-Baltimore
