HE NEVER SPOKE AGAIN.
The Doc That Served the Purpose Of
VentrilOquist.

The Doc That Served the Purpose Of
ventrilOquist.
The following story is told Of ven
triloQuist, now famous, but at the time
OF this happening SO hard up he used to
walk between the cities where he was
to appear. On one Of these tours he
came to Philadelphia on foot, and on
the road he picked up miserable little
dog because 1t looked SO much like he
felt" The story will explain what be-
came of the dog.
The first house he came to was sa-
loon, and Of course he wanted drink.
He had no money, but went in anyhow
to see what he could do. The proprie-
tor, German, said:
well, what will you haveT'
He said. "Ill take little whisky"
lnd then. turning to the dog, he asked
"What will you have?"
The answer came very promptly:
"I'll take ham sandwich"
The German was SO surprised he al
most tainted. He looked at the dog a
moment and then asked:
What did you say?"
The dog replied:
II said a ham sandwich"
Hans thought it wonderful that dog
should be able to talk and asked who
had trained him, how long 1t had taken,
etc. and wound up with
How much you take for him?"
"Oh," said Mr.. Ventriloquist, II
wouldn't sell him at any price, but l
am little hard up now. and if you will
lend me $50 I'll leave him with you till
bring back the money"
"All right" said Hans. Il just want
him for a little while so l can show
him to some smart people I know
around here"
So everything was settled the money
paid, etc, and as the ventriloquist went
out he turned and waved his hand to
the dog and said:
"Well, goodby, Jack. I'll come back
soon''
The dog looked at him and said:
you mean son Of gun, to sell me
for $50 after all I've done for you! So

these currents leak from our bodies

Sen s: 70 JAIL
FOR AN INSULT
Negro Committed 70. Alleged AZ
front to Young Lady, but
He May Be Released.

Under a provisional bond Of $500 for
twelve months, j. C. Stanard, negro,
who was accused OF insulting and inter
fering with Miss Z. NJ Trayer IN the
street about 10 o'clock last "Wednesday
night, was sent to Jail by Justice sCrutch-
field yesterday. It may be that after FUR
@ther investigation Of the case the negro
will be released. Stanard is a shoemaker,
and the evidence against him was OF such
a nature as to mako the Court doubtful,
while at the same time he was determined
to punish him for his misconduct.
3 Stanard was arrested on Wednesday
night by Policeman Wyatt on complaint
of the young woman, who is about TWEEN
ty years old and very pretty. t seems
that she. was passing along Marshall
Street alone, about 10 o'clock at night,
when negro stepped out from behind a
tree directly in her path. In fright she
turned and went the other way. and she
swore yesterday that lenegro had followed
her for many blocks through the city
streets until at last she met a gentleman
she knew and he was taking her home
when they came again upon The negro
Policeman Wyatt had noticed Stanard
standing at Eighth and Marshall Streets
and had told him to move on He was
standing there taking to the negro Wlleh
the young woman and the man with
her came UP. Then the young woman
made the charge that the negro had
insulted her and had followed her. His
arrest followed Immediately.
When this story vast told yesterday in the
Police Court Stanard said he had never,to
his knowledge, seen the young woman be-
fore; that he would not swear even that
she was tho young woman who made
the charge against him, and that there
must be some mistake He was per-
fcctly respectful throughout and his
story gained general credence, tho pre-
sumption being that Miss Traver mad
made a mistake. She was positive III
