THE DIPLOMACY OF SEN. KNOX.

Before Senator Knox, of Pennsyl- vania, became Attorney-General he went to Texas on some legal business, visiting a small town in the interior of the State. After he had seen his man he went to the railroad station late at night to take his train home.
 Can I get a cup of coffee?" asked the future Senator.
 You kin, if you've got the price," growled the bartender.
 All right" said Knox, and the man gave him a cup of coffee. While he was in the town Knox had heard of shooting that had taken place few days before. Thinking to make lit tie conversation, he said: Had a killing down here a few days ago, I understand"
 Yes, said the bartender, the man was shot off that stood right where you're sitting"
 Knox finished his coffee. He rum maged his pockets for a nickel and found he had nothing smaller than a five-dollar bill. He laid that on the bar
 'Look-a-here, young fellow" ex- claimed the bartender, what in blazes do you mean by throwin' out five dollar bill for f1ve-cenr cup of coffee? Them things don't go here."
 "Oh, that's all right" said Knox, taking quick look at the shelves be- hind the bar give me three dollars worth of those cigars right up there"
