JOTTINGS.
Rx SIDNEY P. LAZARUS.

"I heard a good one in Carbon It'll the other night" said Hughes D. Ken nedv. "and it's too good to keep A crowd of us were sitting around the hotei after supper talking about strange things which happen to drummers' when one or the boys told the following
 Some years ago was travelling in the north and had to take many drives or course during the winter the ground was covered with snow and I was compelled +o ride in sleighs. One day my way led across a frozen river. I knew the ice was thin. but I had to cross. The team sour ried over the river under whip, and we were midway between the shores when the ice suddenly gave way and the sleigh, horses and myself sank to the bottom within a second. However, the speed of the horses was so great that we were carried by the momentum safely upon the other shore, a little wet, to be sure, put not much the worse for that.
 "A thin, silent man had listened with great interest to the story. It is strange, said he, but the same sort of an accident happened to me. The issue, however, was more tragic The big man squinted at the speaker. And what was the is sue?' he asked, suspiciously. Well, l was drowned, said the thin man.
 You seem to have a liking for large words" said Joe zinszer to one of his drivers the other day.
 Well boss" answered Erastus, l onced knowed man whose life wuz saved by a big word. He done tole me dat ht- da mo fOIIu' ont what dat word meant 1t wuz too late foh me to let on how mad l wuz."
 J. Edwin Budwig who makes firebricks, says that he was coming in from his works the other morning and while on the train heard the following conversation, which took place between Johnnie Meyer and an lnquisitive stranger. farmer oc- cupied a seat just behind Johnnie and opened the conversation as follows; Travel on this road purity often?'' Yes, replied Meyer. Come this way most every day, I reckon?' "Yes. "In business of some kind like as not?" "No l work for another man." Dry goods business?' NO, wet goods" "SaloonY No, fish market"
 And the inquisitive passenger was quiet for a few moments. Then he began again: Find 1t cheaper to live out O the city v ''No. dearer." Rents are cheaper, ain't they?' "Yes." Groceries and things don cost any more, do they?" NO, cost less. Have to pay out too much for railroad fare?" "Railroad fare doesn't cost me S75 a year" Then what makes it dear er2" Running for trains. Wear and tear of shoe leather"
 The inquisitive stranger ruminated on this a few moments and then said: "They pay bigger wages in the city than they do in the suburbs, don't they%' Yes What might 1t be worth now, to hold job like yours?' "The man I am work ing for pays me s20.99 a week." Always makes the exact change?" Always "What's the idea of making it just SEQ. .992" 'He pays me s20 for my work and the 99 cents for minding my own business"
 And the inquisitive stranger retired to the extreme rear of the car and assumed a sitting poscture on the coal box.

STORIES oF SENATOR HoAR.
Senator Ingalls, Paid Massachusetts
 Man for His Raps.

From the Chicago News.
 Senator Hoar and Senator Evarts were implaeabe enemies when 1t came to a passage of words. and the honors were about even. One day Evarts came off flying colors. He was chairman of the library committee and Hoar was a minor member. Evarts was lazy and would not call his committee together from beginning to end of a session. A measure which Hoar was anxious to have brought up had been referred to the library committee and there seemed doomed to sleep forever Toward the end of the session Hoar met Evarts in the cloak room. Whenever you are ready to call a meeting of the library committed, he said with bitter sarcasm, "I wish you would notify my executors" "I shall be most happy to notify your

THE BROWN GUN.
Fighting Machine With Range of a
 Hundred Miles.

From Everybody's Magazine.
 The inventor of the new American gun is a man nsmed J. Hamilton Brown, though the work of constructing this particular s!x-inch experimental piece is in charge of Colonel John M Ingalls, re- tired U. s. A., an artillerist of high standing and reputation. Despite the incredulity of contemporary gun-build- CTS, Colonel Ingalls and the officers with him assert that his six-inch gun will throw thirty miles a projectile weighing 100 lbs, which will pierce q six-inch steel target. A ten-ineh gun of this construc tion with a powder-chamber of 14,259 cu- bic inches and using 360 lbs. of smokeless powder. would hurl a 600-lb. projectile a distance of ffty-nine miles, Increas- ing this ratio. a sixteen-inch gun would have an extreme range of more than one hundred miles, and equipped with such coast-defense rifles, England and France could shell each other across the Channel

Peculiar Mexican Manufacturing Prod.

From the Mexican Herald.

From the Mexican Herald.
 The foreigner who arrives in Mexico rarely takes kindly to the wax match, on account of it's shortness and pliabi- ity. Not until he has burnt his finger tips many times and got the knack of handling it without burning himself does he overcome his aversion, and, in fact, grow to like it as well and even better than the wooden match. But the two-headed wax match is some thing he hardly ever can regard other wise than as a nuisance, and, in fact, as danger, inasmuch as frequently the one head is used while the other

 Senator Ingalls, was one of those who had been so often rapped by the late Senator Hoar that he took keen delight in saying sharp things at the expense of the Massachusetts man. When the Conk- ling-Garfield episode came up Hoar was so disgusted with the management of the affair that It was said he threatened to resign his seat. The question was under discussion In the cloak room, and some one commented on the probability

of Hoar's resignation. ''Hoar reslgnp' laughed Ingalls,. You don't know him. Whenever his resentment at anything reaches that pitch he will rise in his seat and hand in the resignation of Dawes. his colleague"
 Senator oHar hated Benjamin Butler he was the one man that Hoar could not ablde-and his son inherited the feeling, as witness this remark made when asked if he were going to attend Buffers fu- neral: No; I'm not goingi but I approve of it."
