The proper way TO take rope from a
coil is to draw it from the middle
There are two ways TO do this a right
and wrong way. If it happens to be
done the wrong way the rope will be-
come twisted in a manner that will
make it almost unmanageable To do
it properly the rope should be un-
coiled toward the left, or opposite the
way the hands of watch or clocl
run. By finding the inside end of the
coil and observing how it uncoils, one
may tell whether or not he is starting
in the right way. If the rope uncoils
TO the right instead of the left the
whole coil should be turned over and
the end pulled through from the op-
posite side of the coil. The rope will
then uncoil 10 the left and cause no
trouble.

1.-TWO OLD CONFEDERATES /"
Give a Highly Pleasing Entertainment
at St. Mays Hall-GOOd Singing
by Quartette.

1.-TWO Old Confederates, assisted
by four colored men, gave a perform
anee at St. Mary's Hall last evening
to well satisfied audience.
To stop Father Time in his onward
flight and carry one back fifty years.
to the days prior to the Civil War, is
quite feat, but these entertainers
not only did this, but produced the
songs and stories of that period To
many of those present it was an i'm
pulse to hum the old tunes such as
"Suwanee River" and others Just as
familiar fifty yea ago.
In opening the entertainment one
of the Confederates made the an
nouncement that they were there to
entertain, and while they would play
on musical instruments, none of the m
would recognize note Of music. 10
fact, he said, notes of music look to
them like bunch of drunken mosqui-
toes sitting on a barbed wire fence.
With this he called on the colored
quartz tie TO give an old-fashioned
plantation song, such as no colored
man dared not sing in these days. One
stsnza was as follows:
My girl works over in the white
folks yard,
She gives me my meals three times 3
day, =
She thinks I'm working hard, but !
Amt
I'm living easy.
Col. Booker told some wartime
stories that were greatly enjoyed and
his Interpretation of the Arkansas
Traveller was all that could be de-
sired, as were also the stories of the
colored folks before and after the war
by the bass singer Of the quartette.
The solos and choruses by the bass
singer and the Quartette were fine.
One that was in striking contrast to
the songs of this day was the "Old
Sexton" and the singer did himself
credit, and the quartette then sang
the "Suwanee River" The Missis-
sippi Sawyer" was a treat, and the
imitation of a colored congregation
be ing led by an old colored brother
was highly enjoyed.
Taken all in all, ths entertain
ment given by the Two Old Confed-
crates" and the colored quartette
was all that it was represented to be.
A number of old Confederates call
ed on their comrades and renewed
old acquaintance.

Restaurants.

A restaurant is a place where you
pay four dollars for fifteen cents
worth of food, accompanied by about
two dollars worth of light labor, light
china and light music, which you have
heard before After leaving your hat
with Wall street syndicate, you pay
all the way from ten cents to a quar-
ter for the privilege Of getting it back
and wearing it once more. The diff.
ference between a man and woman
indeed today is quite simple. A wom-
n pays fifty dollars all at once for
her hat. while a man pays five dollars
for his and fifty-tiye more in tip in
stallments for storage at restaurants
while he is vainly trying to obtain
enough nourishment to sustain life
between times.
The object of all restaurants is to
furnish you with everything you want
except nourishment. This is carefully
extracted from all food before it
reaches you.
Every restaurant nowadays has at
tached to it a homeless hotel and a
drUgless drug store, also a newspaper
stand, where you can buy paper for
not over twice what you can get it
for almost any night you don't want
them at the same rates Every res.
taurant also has a wine cellar which
is filled with native cobwebs, Euro
pean labels and California grape juice.

Brief But Neat.

During the journey of a royal train
from Balmoral to Windsor the ordi.
nary passenger traffic was very much
disorganized, and express trains were
suddenly drawn up to the no small
annoyance of commercial men and
others, who could truly say that with
them time was money" An express
train between Perth and Aberdeen was
a great sufferer in this respect. and a
certain commercial traveller was quite
boisterous in his denunciation of the
frequent stops. At last when he had
tired his fellow-passengers with his
grumbling, he topped down the win.
dow and shouted: "Guardl I say,
guard"
yes, sir" answered the official ad-
dressed. approaching the compartment.
"Oh, guard. this is simply disgust.
ing Why all these stops? What's
up. man, what's up?" said the com
merciaI traveller, in bantering tones.
The guards reply was brief, neat
and certainly to the point, for he sim
ply answered:
The signal"
The commercials window was
closed with bang.
