Gas CLAIM 10 FAME.
story Of che Man Who Discovered the
EIrst Reefsteak.

First bee5steak.
Beefsteak, like most other good
things, was discovered entirely by
accident, says writer in the Chicago
Tribune. Il appears that Lucfus Pla-
Gus, a Roman of rank, was ordered by
the Emperor Traian for some ofEense
to act as one Of the mental sacrincers
to Jupiter; he resisted, but was at
length dragged to the altar. There
the fragments of the victim were laid
upon the FIRE and the unfortunate SEN
ator was forcibly compelled to turn
them. In the process of roasting one
of the slices fell on the Goals and
was caught by Placus In its fall, It
burned his fingers and he instinctively
thrust them into his mouth. In that
moment he had made the grand dis
covery that the taste of slice, thus
carbOnadoed, was infinitely beyond
all the sodden cookery of Rome. A
new expedient to save his dignity was
suggested at the same time, and he
at once eyinced his obedience to the
Emperor by seeming to go through
the sacrifices with due regularity and
his scorn OF the employment by turn
ing the whole ceremony into a matter
of appetite. He swallowed every slice.
deluded Trajan, defrauded Jupiter and
invented the beefsteak! A discovery
Of this magnitude could not long DO
concealed; the sacrifice began to dis
appear with rapidity and satisfac-
ton to the parties too extraordinary
to be noticed, The priests of Jupiter
adopted the practice with delight, and
the king of Olympus must have been
soon starved If he depended on any
share of the good things of Rome.

They are an mine, love them 50,
These little tots that come and go;
EnraDt with laughter and with song.
From ev'ry shad'wy corner they
Come dancing IN abandon gay.
AND DER the polished floor they glide
Close to me and my hreside.
They tell me tales no others tell;
They queil the sobs no others quell,
All! when their fingers reach to me
Ny heart Of pain again Il free.
They swing upon the ringf OF smoke,
These little dkes, these funny folk.
Ali faithful visitors Of night
They're dancing in the freight.
