APPEARANCES DEcEITFUL.
old Eph's Talk to the CATFISH That
Took His Hook While He
Wan Asleep.

Uncle Ephraim had fished in the lit
tie river from boyhood. In his old age
the habit overmastered him, and he
fshed on daily. Notwithstanding there
were, by popular consent, no
fish left in the stream, relates the New
York Times.
Eph would bait his hook and throwit
in, attend to the business in hand for
a little while, and then go to sleep. He
would sleep hours at a time, and some
times all day, holding on to his fishing
pole from mere force of muscular hab-
it.
One day, while he was sitting thus,
perfectly unconscious of what was inn
pending, a big catfish swan downtthe
stream from some mysterious: hiding
place, grabbedsthe hook with ravenous
syigor, and started to sweep on down
with the whole outfit,
But the jerk, the swish, the commo-
ton, aroused Eph's muscles to a kind
of automatic action, before he awak-
ened from his slumber. The muscles
gave q jerk and landed the siluroid
way back, Is or 80 feet from the bank.
Eph awoke, looked around, saw It
struggling and Popping toward the
river, got up, rubbed his eyes in sleepy
bewilderment, grabbed the fish, and
while securing him b slipping q little
willow through his gills, gave him q bit
Of salutary advice:

A story of Beck and Evart..

Senator Evarts once unwittinsly
gave deep offense to bluff Senator
Beck. He was discussing the latter's
bill forbidding members Of congress to
practice before the supreme court, and,
having occasion to refer to lawyers
whose practice was limited to special
ties and who never had occasion to APP
pear before the highest judicial tribu-
nal in the land, he called them "uniiat.
eral' lawyers.
The professional dignity of Senator
Beck was wounded. He had been fair
ly successful at the bar in Kentucky,
but he had early laid aside the law for
politics, and there were even ONE of
bis colleagues who did not know he
was a lawyer. Daniel O'Connell's wal
Of epithets with the isherwoman in
which he finally triumphed by calling
her a '~cohtumelious parallelopipedon'
was nothing to the Scotch epithets
which Senator Beck began hurting al
Senator Evarts. He finally satisfied
his wounded amour propre by assuring
the senate that a unilateral lawyer in
Kentucky was more respected than q
Quadrilateral pettifogger in New York.
Senator Evarts had not been in the
senate long enough then to understand
Senator Beck's peculiarities, but he
finally succeeded in pacifying the
sturdy Kentuckian, and their relations
became quite kindly.
