IIe Told Her.

Oscar SCuglc is Il stanch American
and proud Of his American lineage.
The baritone's family. who are south
erners. lost most of their fortune dur
ing the war between the states, and as
the father died while quite young the
family was left in rather straitened
circumstances. SO Oscar. fired by the
American spirit of independence,
sought n vocation to earn some mon
ely for himself and arranged to accom-
pany the driver of laundry wagon on
his rounds and collect the packages of
laundry. Some years later, meeting
one of the society ladies in London at
q dinner party the lady said: Where
have ] seen you. Mr.. Seagle? Your
face seems very familiar" AT your
back door, madam. often when you
came to complain that your husbands
collars were not properly done," ex-
planned the singer, with a twinkle.

Her Footsteps.

A clever actor was playing the role
of the heavy villain in melodrama ana
was working as hard as he could at
the best scene in the play. He had
Just finished the consultation with the
low comedy villain, which occurs in all
properly conducted melodramas, and
had spoken the cue for the heroine's
entrance: away! She comes! hear
her footstepsp'
AS he made this speech the property
man accidentally dropped sixteen
pound shot down the staircase which
led to the dressing rooms. There was
a succession of deliberate crashes,
which resembled the heavy footsteps
of giant, and the audience saw the
ludicrous side OF the situation at once.
The actor stood rooted to the spot,
bursting with suppressed laughter and
not knowing what to do. The leading
lady was unfortunately somewhat
stout and, on hearing the noise, re-
fused to make her entrance, voW1ng
that the whole thing had been arrang-
ed for the purpose of insulting her.
Entreaties and threats had no effect;
she remained obdurate, and the cur
tain had to be rung down and the
audience dismissed. The leading lady
left the company the next morning.

Fun For the Librarian.

In "open access" libraries, where Dor
rowers are admitted to the shelves to
choose their own books, it is usual to
affix to the ends of the book stacks
guide cards showing the contents of
each stack. Works Of fiction being
generally arranged in alphabetical or
der. cards showing the first and last
names of the sequence Of authors are
all that are necessary. Once in IL
brary the first card happened to be
"Fiction-About to Burgin." the first
and last authors being Edmond About
and G. B. Burgin.

Would Follow His Example.

After the battle of Prestonpans a
witty Scottish farmer amused himself
by writing a ballad upon It, which so
stung one of the English officers, who
had behaved very basely on the occa-
sion, that he sent the poet a challenge
to meet him at III. for mortal combat.
The second found the farmer busy
with his hayfork and at once delivered
the challenge of the redoubtable hero.
The good natured farmer, turning to-
ward him with the agricultural nipple
ment, coolly said:
"Gang AVA back to Mester Smith
and tell him haze nae time to come to
FL. to gle him satisfaction, but that II
he likes to come here I'll TAX a look
at him, and if / think | can fecht

For a While II Made Napoleon III. Sit
Up and Take Notice.
The man who sent the first private
message over the Atlantic cable was
COMMUNICATED in recent COrnhill
Magazine According to that maya
inc. it was William Gilpin, who was
appointed governor of Colorado by
President Lincoln in 1861.
The line was ready for business on
Aug. 5, 1866 At that time Napoleon
Ill. was in the plenitude of his power.
His every movement was eagerly
was believed to have his eye on Be-
hemia.
Mr.. Gilpin was a man of humor, and
it occurred to him that it would be a
good joke to hand to the agents of the
Atlantic cable this message for the
French emperor:
Denver, Colo, Aug. 4, 1866. To
Louis Napoleon Bonaparte. Emperor,
Tuileries, Paris, France: Please leave
Bohemia alone. No interference will
be tolerated by this territory.
CIVILIAN GILPIN."
Mr.. Gilpin wrote his dispatch merely
in the exuberance of humor. The ca
BILE people, eager for custom and know
ing that the former governor of Colo
RADIO could pay the bill, forwarded it..
It was duly delivered at the Tuileries
and for awhile startled and mystified
the emperor.
The freak cost Mr.. Gipin ESQ., and all
he got for his money was the reputa-
ton of inaugurating the Atlantic cable
and the satisfaction of playing joke
on the French emperor.

fired both barrels and missed, as usual,
but the rabbit still remained in sight.
Once more the minister fired. He fired
in all thirty-six cartridges and at last
bowled the rabbit over.
Delighted, the minister ran and pick
ed up the rabbit, which, however, had
tied around it's neck card with the
words, 'Long life to Senior -; then
came the minister's name. 1t was q

please;
You whose smart pen backed up the pen
ellis laugh,
Judging each step as though the way
were plain,
Reckless so it could point it's paragraph
OF chiefs perplexity or peoples pain:
Beside this corpse that bears for winding
The stars and stripes he lived to rear
anew,
Between the mourners at his head and
feet,
Say. scurrile jester. is there room for
you?
Yes. he had lived to shame me from my
sheer,
To lame my pencil and confute my pen,
To make me own this hind, Of princes
This rail- splitter. true-born king of
men.
My shallow Judgment I had learned to
rue,
Noting how to OCCASIONS height he rose;
How his quaint wit made home truth seem
more true;
How, iron-like, his temper grew by blows.
How humble. yet bow hopeful, he could
be;
How in good fortune and in Ill the
same,
Nor bitter I'm success. nor boastful he.
Thirsty for gold. nor feverish for fame.
He went about his work-such work as
Ever had laid on head and heart and
hand 9tffp
AS one who knows where there's a task
to do ~ -sets
Mans honest will must heavens good
grace command.
Who trusts the strength will with the bur-
den grow,
That God makes instruments to work his
will,
II but that will we can arrive to know.
Nor tamper with the weights of good
and Ill.
So he went forth to battle on the side
That he felt clear was liberty's and
rights,
AS In his peasant boyhood he had piled
His warfare with rude Natures thwart-
ing nights;
The uncleared forest, the unbroken soil,
The iron bark that turns the lumberer's
ak,
The rapid that oerbears the boatman's
toll,
The prairie hiding the mazed wanderers
tracks,
The ambushed Indian and the prowling
bear
Such were the deeds that helped his
youth to train;
Rough culture, but such trees large fruit
may bear
IF but their stocks be Of right girth and
grain.
So he grew up, destined work to do.
And lived to do 1t: four long suffering
years
Ill fate i'll feeling, ill report, lived through.
And then he heard the Kisses change to
cheers,
The taunts to tribute, the abuse to praise.
And took both with the same unwaver-
ing mood
Till. as he came on light from darkilns
days
And seemed to touch the goal from where
he stood.
A felon hand between the goal and him
Reached from behind his back, a trigger
prest,
And those perplexed and patient eyes were
dim,
Those gaunt, long laboring limbs were
laid to rest!
The words Of mercy were upon his lips,
Forgiveness in his heart and on his pen,
When this vile murderer brought swift
eclipse
To thoughts of peace on earth. good will
to men.
The old world and the new. from sea to
sea,
Utter one voice of sympathy and shame;
| Sore heart, so stopped when 1t at last beat
high;
Sad life cut short just as its triumph
came!
A deed accurstl Strokes have been struck
before
BY the assassin's hand. whereof men
doubt
II more Of horror or disgrace they bore.
But thy foul crime. like Gains. stands
darkly out
Vile hand that brandest murder In STRIFE.
Whateer its grounds. stoutly and nobiy
striven,
And with the martyrs crown croWnest
life
With much to praise. little to be for
