Minister of Railways Did Not Insist
 Upon Punishment.

Upon Punishment.
 Gen. Budde, minister of railways in Germany, is never more happy than when looking personally after the per feet fultillment of all rules.
 Some time ago he was travelling in cognito to Hamburg. In his compart- ment Il cOuntryman entered and at once proceeded to light an enormous and rank cigar. Gen. Budde remarked to him that the rules of the road pro hibited any one from smoking in a compartment without the consent Of the other occupants. The smoker did not seem to understand, and continued to exhale fumes like small volcano. Upon finishing his first cigar he imme- diately lit another. The general by this time thoroughly veXed, exclaimed: q am well acquainted with the rules of the road because 1 arl the minister of railways" At the same time he handed his card to the smoker The latter condescended to cast d glance at it and stuck it in his pocket, without CcdSllS lOI ull lllStdll tO cNllult tiiol- nous puffs of smoke.
 When the train stopped the country man silently got out Gen. Budde by this time was overcome with anger Calling one of the station officials, he told him to go to the countryman and learn his name, as he intended to have him arrested Asked his name, the smoker of the big and rank cigars pull ed from his pocket card-that of Gen. Budde-and handed it to his questiOner, who. upon glancing at it. at once gave most respectfully the mil itary salute. Afterward. returning to the general, he said: "I believe. my dear sir, that you would do well not to insist about that man breaking the rules of the road. You couldn't arrest him anyhow, seeing as it is the minis ter of railways himself!'
 The general did not insist-New York Tribune,

 A traveller when about halfway be- tween the two cities saw two boys fighting by the roadside. Before he could separate them one of the boys got the other down, and after banging the victims face into the soft ground, sat panting but victorious astride of him.
