THREE KIDS.

Three kids upon a city square
 Made friends with me the other day; Three little shavers playing there, Had each a special speech to say. One asked me for the funny sheet, One for the band on my cigar, One sat a wheel and from the seat He scarce could reach the handiesaJ. No mere material things asked he, No inroad on my purse or love, Twas but a simple courtesy
 He craved the kindness of a shove None rendered formal thanks to mo; These were not verbose little men; But six young eyes right merrily Said, Mister, we'll be friends again"

An Unfortunate Acquaintance.

It was with a good deal of confidence that he walked up to the magistrate desk in the Front and Master street police station recently, notwithstand- ing the fact that a policeman had firm hold on both sleeves. He waited quietly till one of the policemen had made the accusation of drunk and disorderly," and then asked Magistrate Scott if he might speak.
 Yes" replied the magistrate, what have you to say?"
 ''Well, judge, I was drunk last night, but it does not often happen. I have lived in this ward nearly all my life and any one can tell you that"
 "Oh, lived here all your life, have you? Do you know any one in the ward that can speak for you? asked the magistrate.

One night ball was in progress in
the Latin quarter Of Paris, that por-
tion Of the city given over to students
and grizettes. 1t was in those days a
veritable Bohemia. in the height of
that splendor pictured by Du Mauriel
in his novel '"rrilby." Among the
dancers was Gustave Rieux, who had
been active In opposing the assumption
Of imperial power by the president.
Upon the enthronement Of Louis Ma

Rieux's partner in the dance was
Clochette Verier, at the time the ac-

spoken against her purity. Born In

Bohemia destined rather to rule it
than to be ruled by 1t. There, on his
return from America, Rieux met her,
and the meeting resulted "a both sides

Rieux had been warned that the
government had trumped up a charge
against him of completely in case
of murder and if caught he would be
tried under imperial influences and
doubtless convicted. He had delayed
flight because he could not tear him

taking up the cue.
"Beranger! Beranger! Beranger"
rang through the hall.
Clochette advanced to meet the de-

passed, "Come; let Us greet the poet"
At that moment the music started for
the next figure. but no one paid any
attention to it. A bevy Of girls block

the barrier.
Meanwhile the detective was the
center Of attraction at the ballroom.
To tell the admiring throng that he
was not the poet they idolized, but an
agent of the government sent to arrest

he dared do. He did deny that he
was Beranger, but even this they
would not believe. Finally he made
his escape loaded with flowers.
"Clochette." cried Rieux. throwing
his arms around her as they rolled
away in the cab "you have saved me-

"Escape-both of US in ball dress!'
For the first time it occurred to the
fugitive that as soon as Claude coul(

began to lay a plan. They first drove
to the house Of friend Of Rieux
