Everybody realizes that tomorrow is
K ister Sunday, and the liens have labored
energetically to supply the demand.
The Unto ball boys, the Joker under
btauds, are going to eat eggs on that
day. They have started out nobly in the
race this year, and he would like to ad
vine them to be careful lest they upoil
their record in their feasting and get put
out by a fowl, for the old maids of the
barn yard have considerable to say about
the crop this season.
In his observing manner the Joker
lias, for some time, been searching; for
some trait of character tiiat can be said
to be to the credit of mankind, and the
fact has recently been 8 untreated to him
that no man ever went through his wife's
pockets at nitrht he couldn't find the
pesky thing if he wanted to.
The Joker has stuffed himself with
historical facts of 179 to be able to
fully comprjlun I an 1 appreci ate the
Washington Intugural banquet Tuesday
night, April 50. ,.
"Come with nv;," said the night goblin
late oye evening, as he seized the Joker
in his arms and slipped a mask over his
face, "and I will show you wondrous
things." For a moment he struggled for
freedom as the goblin seemed to be get
ting a move on himself, and then for
what seemed ages he felt himself rushing
rapidly through the air and under the
lifted cover of the mask saw rivers, for
ests, cities, lakbs, oceans, swamps and all
imaginable maps of physical geography
sailing by at a dizzy rate. ''Are we go
ing around the world, or are we travel
ing back to the beginning," thought the
victim of the late hour, and he hugged
closely to the boosom of his captor to
claim merciful protection Finally the
rushing sounds ceased, and the last
thought of their destination seemed like
the right one as the goblin alighted gent
ly upon a precipitous mountain side in
stubby yegitation, and a mournful ,:qua-r;r-r-a-a-k,"
"OjUa-r-r-r-a-a-k" was heard,
liemoving the mask from the Joker's
fact thejgoblin said'look down," and
hovered over him so that he could not
look up. There below was a smooth
surfaced sheet of water, and from it wn3
reflected plainly the forms of small trees,
and stars, and fleecy clouds witli silvery
edges which showed it was partly clear
and the moon was rising. From the re
flection the trees appeared to be just put
tin? forth their leaves, the air wa3 alti.
refreshing like spring. It was a
beautiful scene, but solemn, the whisper
ings of the wind could not be heard, but
a continuall "qua-r-r-r-a-a-k, qua-r-r-r-a-a-k,
qua-r-r-r-a-a-k," which sadly rose
from the water frogs, was the only sound.
"Where are we?" asked the victim of the
: goblin's mysterious aniauh; but the only
answer was a toug "qua-r-r-r-a-a-K,. xrom

commotion in the water and a heay

j or lake, and moved away silen:ly. At
this the Joker shuddered in great fear,
but then feeling the protection of . the
goblin asked: "What are they?" "Ti.e
cae,!! replied 'e awful goblin of the
night, "is malaria, the other is scarlet
fever." "Ah, I'm at th3 beginning,"
thought the prisoner, " and pjrh ips I'll
yet know the truth of the Darwin theory."
Glancing below the Joker was surprised
to see the pool had greatly decreased,
apparently from the drawing together of
the banks, the reflection showed the trees
in full leaf, there were no clouds, but
the stars shown brightly, and then there
came upon him a depressed sensation of
summer heat; the sad "qua-r-r-r-a-ak"
continued, and a he looked
and wondered at the sudden
chancre the nool was acrttin irrcatly dis-
turbed, and a third and greater yapor
arose and vanuhed. "What's that, and
where are we?" cried the prisoner of the
goblin, wondering what would come
next? "That," came the reply, "is the
Yellow Jack, he has just arrived from
Memphis," and coutinued t tie goblin,
moying from the Jokek, permitting him
for the first time to look about him, "we
are on Pearl street in your native city,
and that shriveling pool from winch
those pestilences have risen and gone out
is the stinking water in the old creek
beds which are so reluctantly filled under
the order of yourl city council. Hut
come, see, the uasin tiouung me pooi
has at last been filled, we must go."
And as the goblin sailed through the air
again the Joker glanced bac k and saw
the pool was gone, but leavts were fall
ing from the frosts of the autumn.
