While the dinner hour still clings
to the noontide among country peo.
pie it has advanced in the cities, un-
til now it occurs at any time betweea
noon and midnight. And that re.
minds me of the many stories about
Col. Davy Crockett. While he was n
member of congress and was at his
home in Tennessee, some one asked
him about the dinner hour in WASH
ington. He said the common people
ate dinner at 12, the next above them
at I, the merchants at ., the repre-
sentatives at 3, the senators at 4,
members of the cabinet at 5, and the
vice president at 6. But when does
the president dine?" "What! Old
Hickory?" said Crockett, anxious to
fix time that would suit his idea
of Jackson's greatness. "Well. he
don't eat till next day!"-Montgom-
cry (Ala.) Advertiser.

When the girls will they will, and
here is fresh proof of it: The cab
men of Evansville, Ind, recently
formed combine and advanced their
prices for taking a couple to the the
ater from one dollar to two dollars.
This led to the formation of gum
shoe" union on the part of the society
girls, who walked rather than pay the
price demanded. The business of the
cabmen fell off, and they had to go
back to the old prices. The girls are
now rejoicing over their victory, to
which they were helped by the sup
port of the travelling men, who were
affected by "A corresponding increase
of other rates and had arranged to ask
the city council to pass an ordinance
establishing a uniform price for
cabs.

Indignant.

At certain military post just
after taps" one night detail was
called for from one of the companies
to bring from the married quarters
to the guard house one of the men
who was beating and abusing his
wife. The first sergeant of the COM
pany called for Corporal Walters and
Privates Spicer and Carney to form
the detail. The first two immedi-
ately rose from their cots and pre-
pared for duty, but Carney was APP
parently sound asleep, although but
a moment before he had been swap
ping yarns with his "bunkie.' The
sergeant orded Spicer to wake him,
when Carney got to his feet with the
disgusted protest:
"Why don't you wake some one
who isn't asleep?"-N. y. Times.
