LAMB MADE ALL THE TROUBLE
BY Comparison, the Lion Was lnotfen-
sve and Mild-"Butts Like a
6attering RAM"

The tidings that lamb is appearing
on the stage in the production OF
Joseph and His Brethren" has been
noised far and wide. Several CORE
spondents have written to ask why a
lion should not also appear, the pair
lying side by side. But that has al
ready been done, by Lord George
Stranger, and thereby hangs tale.
When the sale of the old showman's
menagerie took place, the two animals
were put together and bought by Mr.
Fred emmett, of Dick Turpin fame.
BY this time the lamb had got pretty
long in the tooth, to say the least OF
it, A few days afterwards an ac-
quaintance asked Mr. emmett how the
happy pair were getting on.
Il wish had never seen them,
said the Snowman gloomily.
why, is he savage?"
Savage is not the word for it He
won't let anyone come near him."
Indeed! thought he looked such
a mild old lion"
Lion? Lion be bowed! It's the
lamb l mean. He butts like a batter

ALMOST TURNED THE TRICK
Clever Scheme of English Smugelers
Only Frustrated by Luck at the
Last Moment.

One of the most ingenious of SNUG
Cling tricks was that originated by a
band of clever Partisan rogues recent
ly coffin supposed to contain the
dead body of a man who had died of
diphtheria, was dispatched from the
gay city for burial in London. 1t was
met at the railway terminus in that
country, and conveyed at nightfall to a
house not far from the Mile End road,
Whitechapel Everything would have
passed off as desired and planned had
not a policeman on duty become sus-
picious on seeing a particularly large
coffin being taken out of hearse in
to a house that was known to be the
babitation of men who had done penal
servitude.
After the funeral party had shut
their door and the hearse had driven
away, the policeman secured assistance
and knocked at the door 1t was found
that the coffin, instead of containing a
corpse, was filled tightly with cakes
OF tobacco, dozens of boxes of cigars,
and other excisable goods. The
"mourners" were Immediately arrested
and the goods confiscated.
