AGENT QUICK TO SEE POINT
Dogs Collar Revealed Character of Tenants and They Couldn't Rent
 the Flat.

References which appeared satisfac- tory had been placed in the hands of the renting agent, who was on the point of declaring them unnecessary, owing to the genteel appearance of the applicants for a flat, when sud- denly he exclaimed:
 By the way, Pm sorry. but l don't believe I can let you have that flat, after all It's been spoken for
 When the possible tenants had de parted indignantly, the agent said:
 Do you know what made me change my mind so suddenly? It was their dogs collar In lifting the lit tie fellow up to pet him l read the inscription on his coliar It was en- graved with four different addresses, all of which had been put on since last tax day. Three of the addresses had been scratched out, and if they had secured my flat another would have been scratched out and fifth added by day after tomorrow. A dog s collar marked like that shows that his owners don't stay in one place long enough to get a new plate on his l collar between moves, and 1 don't care to rent to transients."

not some able men among them. Prob ably they average as high in mental ability as kinds did in the middle ages when they not only reigned, but gov erned. The German emperor is a eIroag ruler, and Francis Joseph of Austria has sailed his crazily built em- pire on a very even keel for many years.
 Victor Emmanuel of Italy is very prudent and clever man, who can think and act on his own responsibll- ity. and Alfonso of Spain is a man or great spirit and an able politician Ferdinand of Bulgaria is cutting a wide swath just at present, ana Is credited with brains.
 George VS of England is common place, but prudent. Accounts of the haracter and ability of the Russian gar differ widely Some who have cen him credit him with great abll- ty. but the course of events in Russia ,oes not seem to justify this estimate.

EVlCTED VlCER0Y FROM HOME
of Petulant Government Of New South Wales.

Australia is land of political ex- periments. The latest of these is the eviction of the goyernor-general or viceroy, the official representative of tie king It is the government of New South Wales that has performed this astonishing feat, and the indigna- ticn which burst forth at the moment is giving way to prolonged laughter. Since the union of the colonies under the name of the Commonwealth of Australia, it has been the habit of the governor-general to live for part of the year at Sydney, New South Wales, and for the other part at Melbourne, Victoria, Government house at Sydney is the property of the government of New South Wales, having been the residence of the governors of that col
 only before the commonwealth was formed; but the colonial government gladly lent it to the viceroy of all Aus
 tralia for the honor of his presence in the city.
 But the government of the colony recently took offense at the proposal 
 tablishment by the commonwealth ot post office savings bank, which
 would have come into competition with the New South Wales State Say. ings bank. and rashly resolved to em- | phasize it's opposition, hoping perhaps to frighten the federal government from it's purpose. by resuming posses sion of government house and thereby i turning out the general. The deed has been done and Lord Den ham has left the city, cheered all along the route to the railway station by the citizens, and presented on their behalf by the lord mayor with an ad- dress expressing love and loyalty, con- demning the action of the government es an indefensive outrage on the na- , tional hospitality, and affirming the of fcial residence at Sydney re-establish- cd. Alas for the spiteful landlord! There is in this affair the libretto for a comic opera.-Boston Herald.

There were two coiored men talking in loud tones at the other end of the railway platform, and we walked down to hear what the row was about. One of them was a deacon in a colored church and the other was drayman. The former was flourishing paper in his hand and saying:
 N"Dar's de figgers, right dar. You owes de church 'zackly fo'teen hun dred fur pew rent, and Fze been sent to see what you'ze gwine to do about it."

Boys and young men who think it is smart to cultivate habits of questionable good fellowship
 might read with profit the career of a young man who was recently sent to state's prison for twenty years because, in moment ot drink-madness, he shot a girl for whom, as he said during his trail
 had always had nothing but sincere friendship. Drink made him ir- responsible and he committed near murder in a seconds time. Drink may be an excuse, in one sense of the word, but the memorable law of man does not condone the offense on that account.

A PROSE POEM.

She was a woman, worn and thin. whom the world had condemned for a single sin: they cast her out of the Kings highway and passed her by as they went to pray. He was a man and more to blame, but the world spared him a breath Of shame: beneath his feet he saw her lie, but he raised his head and passed her by. They were the people who went to pray at the temple of God on a holy day; they scorned the woman, forgave the man-it was ever thus since the world began. Time passed on and the woman died. on the Cross of Shame was Crucified; but the world was stern and would not yield, and they buried her in the potter,s field. The man died, too. and they buried him in a casket of cloth with silver rim, and said, as they turned from his grave away, We've buried an honest man today" Two nor tals knocked at Heavens gate. and stood face to face to inquire their fate.

When a young man is always asking for raise, it is a sure sign he expects to quit within a short while. When an employer sees that a man is deserving an ad- vancement in salary, he is pretty sure to get it without asking, and the man who deyotes all his time to talking about it, doesn't usually deliver the goods.
