ClNDE REllA,

It is not quite true that Cinderella
and the Prince lived happily ever
after. On the contrary, there were
differences before they had been mar
ried q week.
SO it was only beans and such like
that you were picking out of the
ashes?" sneered his highness, palpably
nettled.
"Sure it was!" replied Cinderella,
with toss of her head. What did
you suppose?"
"Suppose?" the Prince was white
with modification and chagrin. Il
supposed it was coal, of course. Do
you imagine I could afford to marry
on any other supposition, with anthra-
cite at eight dollars?" >.
But no, she was not to be prevailed
upon. II he had jumped to an unwar-
ranted conclusion, that was his fault,
not hers.-Puck.

DOG CAUGHT IN ~FLYWHEEL.
Animal Escapes Without Injury After

igan avenue, escaped with his life,
and is as alert as ever.
Tige, in pursuit of a rat, jumped
into ten-foot fly wheel, and before
his barks attracted attention he had
made 5,525 revolutions.
While the rat was hurled to death.
T1ge clung to one of the spokes of
the wheel. Just bit of him could be
seen by the engineer, who, thinking
his dog was dead, did not make any
attempt at rescue by shutting off the
power. For an hour and five minutes
Tige was in the wheel.
Then the power was shut of. Tige
was dragged out apparently dead and
was about to be thrown into the allev
when he showed signs OF life.
A veterinarian was summoned and
the dog was soon restored to vigor.

kinq Tona's Passing. .

Impressive descriptions come to

funeral Of King; Toffa, 81 years ruler
of Porto Novo, West Africa, a bright
and shining light in his way, especial

creants a. his former i1eighbors; the
ex-kings of Dahomey. Good and peace
able African kings are nott likely to be
much in the public eye, but such poi.
tentates are rare birds along the
Guinea coast, and Toha's isolation in
this respect made him rather conspic-
uous. So French soldiery turned out
to honor his funeral, the governor of
the colony, the resident of the protec-
torate, and other functionaries and
merchants Joined the long procession
that would have been imposing even
II confined to the members of Toffa's 8
own family. The 800 widows and the
numerous progeny left to mourn him
were all in line, adding their lamenta-
tions to those of thousands of his SUBJ
1ects who knelt beside the road to the
tomb. 1t takes a large grave to hold
all things that a king of Toffa's i'm
portance may need in the other
world. Everything from wine to
matches and candles, including 10000
francs in silver, went into the tomb
with his body. This silver is not lost
to the world. The royal shade will
need only the ghosts of the substan-
tials that surround his ashes, and in
four years from the day of his inter-
ment the silver is to be dug up to pay
the expenses of memorial fete in
honor of good Toffa.

are ready to save their sons from the
snares and pitfalls of this great city,

efeller az yet. :
It is said by members of Mr.. Rookie
feller's Bible class that the young men
who are eager for a career in this
wicked city will be, morally speaking,
ticketed through to the leader. The
new arrival will be placed in charge
of a competent Bible class pupil, who
will indicate the evil that turks by
night and day.
When the plan was first suggested
It was declared, that the average clerk
arriving from the country would hard
~ have enough money after he had
paid his board on Saturday night to
indulge in wine suppers,. and that as
long as he was poor he would be vir-
tuous. This criticism was met with
tho assertion that the Bible class by
recruiting the young men early
would make the. visitors strong
enough to resist when, later on, they
we're asked by q friend to go to
roof garden or be otherwise naughty.
Z II this plan is successful, it is said,
the new arrivals will be met ut the.

Polecat in Citv Hall

Philadelphia.-Of all the strange
visitors that have been received in the
Philadelphia city hall the queerest and
most unwelcome was skunk, or pole
cat, which wandered into the building
and, after chase through the CORR
dors, took refuge in the private Office
of Mayor Reyburn. There the animal
took a position on top of a bookcase
and defied every effort to dislodge him
by cleaners, guards, detectives and
ferrets.
A Swedish animal expert, who has
more than one suit of clothes, carried
of the skunk this morning. Even
with all the windows open, the skunk
will be remembered for some time to
