Harlem. Both are hustlers. Both are open day and night.
 Now what is more natural than for some one who desires to call in Under taker Saul to make a mistake and call up Undertaken Sam, whose name stands right to Saul's in the telephone book? And what would be more natur- al than for Sam, putting it to you as a man of business now, to respond in proper fashion. He is in business to undertake" Likewise and vice versa whc Ct uld blame Saul if some one tele- phone to him in mistake for Sam If he straightway responded? But the rival " between the two had spread among their helpers and their drivers when the natter got into the Police Courts,
 Saul went to San1's place to get a permit to bury a widow. Thus S. Rothschild met s. Rothschlld face to face without looking in the mirror. Saul ayers that he got the permit but that after he did the doors and win- dows were closed and 12 able-bodied huskies-no more, no less-set upon him and treated him roughly, while the language-oh my! Saul says that the less said about that the better.
 So Saul IA. thought the matter a proper subject for magistrates judi cial opinion. He was complainant in the Police Court this morning.

 we want the complainant to apol- ogize," said the defendants attorney.
 And we want the defendant to stop using the name of Rothschild," re- sponded the complainant.
 "What?" querled the defense. "Stop using the name Rothschlid, which, we have worn like badge of honor all these years and which rightfully be- long to us? How am I going to give 1t up?"
 Several persons In the courtroom burst into ribald laughter, but the sol emn, owllike visages of s. Rothschild and & Rothschlld, who had to stand apart so that 1t might be seen which was which, changed not. The magis- trate rapped for order. This is no joking natter he said this matter of S. and s. Rothschild Let there be no more hilarity. 1 Now s. Rothschild the best advice 1 can give to you Is to take the hand of S. Rothschild and sink all your pet ty differences Be the sober, serious 1 minded gentlemen that you look. Go home and make up"
 So, with this advice of Magistrate Walsh to guide them 8. R. and S. R Rothschild buried the hatchet and eacf went to his respective undertaking shop to wait for another call.-New York Evening Sun.

DEPENDING HIS FLAG; OR "A BOY IN BLUE AND A BOY IN.GRAY' by Edward Stratemeyer; illustrated by Grizwold Tyng; st5Q: published by Lothrop' Lee & Sletarl Co.,, Boston.
 This Is one of the best stories penned by this well-known writer for young people and because of its pe- euliar plot is bound to obtain wide popularity in all parts of our coun- try. There are two heroes, one in the army of the North and the other in the cavalry of the south, friends personally, yet bitter foes when on the great battlefelds Both enlist at the opening of the Civil war, and the act ion of the tale takes in the first bat tie of Bull Run and the whole of the campaign before Richmond In, one chapter we see the northern boys in
 blue fighting valiantly and in the next
 we throw our fortunes in with those
 of the southland who stood up SC brayely for what they thought was true and right. There are many side lights of the great military leaders on
 both sides, anI vivid pen-pictures of forced marches, skrmishes, life in camp and in prison, of the doings of
 the guerrillas, and of what was said and done by those who lived upon the soil where these contests were fought Mir. Stratemeyer has given to the historical portions the keenest possible study consulting many works alike from the southern as well as the northern point of view and taking in the narratives of those who fought for either the stars and stripes
 or the stars and bars A volume ev- cry man and boy, North and South ought to read and profit by, and one which must prove real power in ce. menting the friendship now springine
 up between those who once opposed
 each other on the field of daring and
 duty
