his fortune. One of the officers,
young man, took the hint When he
got home he employed skilful dyer,
and the two began a systematic
search for an olive dye that when
used on cotton cloth would not yield
to soap or soda. They spent years
experiments along this line but

TWAIN AND THE OFFICE BOY
How the Late Humorist Rebuked by
His Wit an Officious
Youth.

Mark Twain did not cherish fond.
ness for the average office boy He
had an idea that the genius was in.
sufferable, and invariably when the
humorist sailed forth into some bust.
ness office there was immediate
armed hostility between him and the
boy.
One day Mark went to see a friend
at his office, and the office boy on
guard, in icy tones, said:
Whom do you wish to see?"
Mark mentioned his friends name.
What do you want to see him
about?" came next from the boy.
Mark Twain immediately froze up
and then with a genial smile he said
Tell him, please, want to ask his
hand in holy matrimony"

Jasper Pike and Harry Stevenson
of Camden made 5000 recently by
practically ridding Camden of night
bowling cats, but they landed in Jail
through their ingenuity and each
had to pay a S. fine. The young men
rigged up cat trap and baited it with
piece of shad.
AS the felines essayed to reach the
fish the floor of the trap would give
way and they were precipitated into
a hogshead of water. The young men
caught sixty-one cats in one night,
but one of the cats was pet and its
mistress caused the arrest of the
young men. But Camden sleeps at
