The pricking of that soap bubble,
pretention, is always an agreeable pas
time. In her volume Of "reminiscences,
entitled "As l Remember" Mrs. Gou-
verneur relates that the son of Presi-
dent Van Buren, was generally known
as Prince John because he had once
danced with Queen Victoria before her
accession to the throne and was unable
to forget it.
One day Van Buren, met on the street
James T. Brady, who had recently re-
turned from a visit to England. In
a most patronizing manner he inquired
whether Brady had seen the queen.
Certainly" said Mr.. Brady, "and I'M
der these circumstances. l was walk
ing along the street when by chance
the queens carriage overlook me, and
the moment her majesty's eye lighted
on me she exclaimed:
Hello, Jim Brady When did you
hear from John Van Buren,"

HIS LAST RESOURCE.
Tssis Might Have Used IL at First, but
He Didn't.


J. L. Toole, the English comedian,
dearly loved joke and just as dearly
loved the excitement of the gaming ia
Bile, though he invariably lost. Dur
ing a holiday that, says an English
writer, he and passed together at
Aix-les-Bains ne did his best to i'm
peril the good effects of his cure by
his constant attendance at the Cercle
and the Villa des Fleurs. After a night
In which he had been more than usual
iy successful in exhausting the ready
cash he carried about him we made
our way on the following morning to
the little bank in the main street of
Aixles-Bains in order that he might
make a fresh draft upon his letter of
credit
But he did not at once reveal to the
clerk in charge his serious business
intent. Tapping lightly at the closed
window Of the guichet, he inquired in
broken English, which he appeared
strangely TO believe would be some
how comprehensive to his foreign in
terlocutor, whether the bank would be

ried In his hand. The request, as
might be supposed, was somewhat
briskly dismissed, and the little win
dow was abruptly closed in his face.
Toole retired, apparently deeply de
5ected by the refusal of his request
but in few minutes he returned to
the attack, having in the meantime
provided himself with fresh material
for new financial proposition.
Fastening out into the little market
that lay near the bank, he hurriedly
purchased from one of the fish stalls
q small pike that had been caught in
the lake, and, having added to this a
bunch of carrots, he returned to the
bank, where he carefully arranged
these proffered securities on the coun-
ter, enforced by the addition of his
watch and chain, threepenny bit and
q penknife.
When all was ready he again tapped

LIES Triumnhs.


Each life has one grand day. The clouds
may lie
Along the hills and storm winds fiercely
blow,
The great red sunshine like a thing of
woe
And deaths sad skeleton stalk grimly by,
Yet none of these, no matter how they
try,
Can shroud the perfect triumph we shall
know
Or dim the glory that some star win
show.
Set far away in depths of purple sky.
Sweet love may bring to US this day SUI
premS.
Or it may thrill our souls through art or
song
Or meet us where red battle surges foam:
Hopes stranded wrecks the barren coasts
may CLEAN,
And weeks and months dash by somber
throng,
But some time. somewhere. it viii surely
come.

clerk, in view of his unfortunate posi-
ton, to accept these Ill assorted arti
cles In pledge for the small sum which
was needed to save him from starva
ton.
The clerk, by this time grown indig
nant, requested him to leave the estab
hshment, explaining to him in emphat
ic terms and in such English as he
could command that they only made
advances upon circular notes or let
tiers of credit.
At the last named word Toole's sad
dened face suddenly broke into smiles
and, producing his letter Of credit, be
handed it to the astonished clerk with
the added explanation that he would
have offered that at first If he thought
the bank cared about it, but that the
porter at the hotel had told him he
thought that they liked fish better.
