A New .Joe Jefferson story.

I saw Joseph Jefferson during the
first week of his Rivals" revival in
1880 at the Arch Street Theatre. Ten
years later. when I knew him person.
ally, l found him off the stage as he
was on-a charming companion. The
only example of his dry humor that I
can now recall was the result Of a
slight incident which took place in
Union Square, before store where the
actor occasionally stopped to purchase
painting materials. was at his elbow
as he alighted from his carriage and as
l saluted him I said: Buying paint
Cor The country, Mr.. Jefferson"
He halted, and in those shrewd old
cyes-CeItic cyes-was just the ghost
of 4 twinkle.
Better paint barns than the town,
young man. and he went into the
shop for his tubes. brushes and cam
vas. It was characteristic of Joseph
Jefferson.-World's Work.

muGdIe Over License Law.

The city OF Charleston has been
unable, OF its frs, move, to break
TIE state law, exenlpt!ng confederate
veterans tro1, the payment of license
in the conduct of business. The CIR
cn;t ccu~.. has refused to sustain the
demurrer inte-pcsed by Corporation
Ccurse; Mofe.s and the case Will
probably he taken 10 the supreme
court. The necessity for the breaking
Q: repeal OF the act OF tae last ses-
son Of the legislature is found in the
::oud which perpe rated by so2.e
OF the veterans, resulting in the less
of considerable revenue to the city.
Instances are furnished where ne
gro butchers have discontinued bus!-
ness in their own name and are now
doing business in the names Of con-
federate veterans, thus avoiding the
payment of the inspection tax, and the
authorities have been forced to forget
sentiment, in the endeavcr to put =
stop to the fraudulent methods, which
deprive the city of needed income.
