respondence between himself and

Prince. the horse, went on without any trouble whatever. but Jack-that was the name of the donkey-could neither be coaxed nor driven out before the fOotlights. We finally had to go on with the perform ance with the donkey left out. After the show was over we got together and tried to find out what had been the matter. Nobody could offer an ex planation until one of the stage hands happened to pick up program. which showed that Princes name was print ed in the same kind of type we used for Jack. We got new lot or pro grams the next day with the donkeys name printed in type which was near ly twice as big as that which we used for the horse. After that we never

Moroccan Red Tape.

Official correspondence in Morocco is couched in very fowery and fam boyant style. It is interspersed with variety of meaningless adulatory phrases that tend to confound the real meaning of the ep1stle. For example, an order to the minister of finance to contract loan begins thus:
 'In our present letter (God increase his power and make the glorious sun and his moon glitter in the Armament of his felicity we have authorized our incorruptible servant (here follows name) to contract in the name and on the behoof of the treasury (heaven All it) loan of -" etc.
 Considering that the "incorruptlble servant" is filching as much as he pos sible can from the treasury 1t is cer- tainly necessary to pray that "heaven fll it."-London Graphic.
