HORISKEY i Staple and Fancy Groceries i Flour, Salt, ountry Produce OFFICERS AND SADDLES. Jefferson Davis and a Joke He Did Not Appreciate. When Jefferson Davis was secretary of war he ordered all his generals to learn to ride horseback. No finer horse man than Jefferson Davis ever lived. He won the love and hand of Zacli Taylor’s daughter by his distinguished presence in the saddle, as well as by his intrepidity at the cannon’s mouth. When secretary of war he noticed that only a few officers in the service were capable horsemen and issued an order something like this: “A liberal reward will be paid to any officer or private in the army who will offer a satisfactory device for keeping our soldiers from falling out of their saddles. Communications to the secre tary of war will be regarded as confi dential.” Captain George Horatio Derby, one of the leading army engineers of his day, used to write humorous and witty stories over the pen name of John Phoenix. He received a copy of Sec retary Davis’ order while Improving the harbor of San Diego, Cal., and im mediately forwarded the most intri cate and accurate designs of his plan for keeping officers and men in the saddle. To the seat of each officer’s “pants” he attached a bull ring, and another bull ring was attached to the saddle. The two bull rings were to be lashed together when the officer mount ed his steed. “If that doesn’t hold, nothing will,” wrote Phoenix to the secretary. Davis was furious when he got this proposition and immediately ordered that Captain Derby should be court martialed for “official levity.” The secretary felt that the army had been disgraced and wanted Derby se verely punished. One of his intimates hastened to him. “Jeff,” he whispered, “if you order a court martial for this little pleasantry of John Phoenix, one of the salt of the earth and immensely popular in the army, you will be made a laughingstock. The people will ridi cule you out of office. Just laugh it off.” Davis took his advice.—New York Press. MR. AND MRS. DEAN. The Surprise They Gave a Roomful of Blackguards. In the early part of the nineteenth century Vauxhall was the resort of many respectable persons, especially of those who came up from the coun try to see London sights. During one season it was infested by a band of roughs, who made it their occupation to insult and molest the most quiet, de cent people, especially any whom they guessed to be country visitors. They became such a nuisance that several men about town, among whom were Lord Alvanley and Keppel Craven, laid a plot to get rid of them. They hired Mendoza, the famous prize fighter, and dressed him up as a dean, with a shovel hat and apron. Another prize fighter, a short man. was dressed as a middle aged lady and passed as the dean’s wife, and one evening they were seated at Vauxhall in a conspicuous position to watch the fireworks. It was not long before the old fashioned, countrified pair attract ed the attention of the gang, who as sailed them with every kind of coarse raillery and insult, all of which they bore very meekly. At length one of the persecutors, growing bolder by impunity, stepped up to the dean and- squirted an orange into his eye. On this the dean, rising, said in a meek, quiet tone, “Really, gentlemen, I have borne a great deal, but I must put a stop to this.” With that his hat went one way and his coat another, and, followed by his “wife,” he sprang into the middle of the party, hitting out in all directions. Filled with astonishment and terror, 6ome fled and some tried to show fight, but the handling they got from the prize fighters was too severe for the fracas to last long. All the time Lord Alvanley and his friends, who were in the boxes, were calling out in delight: “Go it. Mr. Dean! Give it ’em, Mrs. Dean!” An effectual stop was thus put to the an noyance.—London Spectator. Pearl Banks of Ceylon. In a report from Colombo the Unit ed States consul says that of the world’s great fisheries none can com pare either in point of antiquity or In the continuity of their prosecution with the pearl fisheries of Ceylon, which he thus describes: “The pearl banks of Ceylon date back to the sixth century before Christ It is recorded that Vijaya, the first Singhalese king of Ceylon, in the year 550 B. C. pre sented his father-in-law, the Pandyan king of Madura, ‘a gift of pearls,’ thus Indicating a settled fishery for pearls on the coast of his dominion prior to the historic date.” Lack of Confidence.
