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.
A party returning home in hired
brougham, the driver of which is some
what inebriated.
Paterfamilias (who at a hill climbs
on to the box at the request of mater
famlllas)—Give me the reins.
Coachman—’Ave you hever druv down
this ’ere ’ill afore?
Pater (taking the reins)—No, I have
not.
Coachman—Then I’ll walk. (Does
so.)—London Punch.
Hard to Dodge.
Englishman (on Atlantic liner)—Well,
old chap, we’ll soon be engaged with,
those blarsted Yankee custom inspect
ors. American—You bet! And remem
ber, old man, that the United States
txpects every man to pay his duty!—
Puck.
Most people aren’t so proud of being
honest as ashamed of being poor.—New
York Press.
