to pay their taxes honestly, must Ira

Inmate of their workhouse, to lieeome

stoop to pick tip a pin and another
half-hour to ralso himself to tho per
pendicular, says the Lonuon Telegraph.
Aflor the , herculean exertion hobo
comes so exhausted that he requires to
spend tho next hour in slumlier to ro
cruit his shattered foroo. He tried to
Induce tho authorities to accept tho
theory that he had worked out, which
proved that the trouble of getting out
of bed in the morning was so enfeebl
ing in his case that it should bo omit
ted from the day's arrangements and
his food sent up to his bedside.
When the workhouse master de
clined to acknowledge the correctness
of this deduction. Kdwarda tried to
-rry his pot idea into ellect surrepti
tiously by crawling into a corner to
enjoy a nap. Never onoe was the
question asked, "Whore's Edwards?"
without receiving the response, and
always correct. '"Asleep, sir."
This prodigy, who puts all other fat

was apparently too well nourished
and sent him to jail for seven days as
a tonic for an overfed and overslept
system.
; A l'olnted Analogy.
A young man of this city has at
tracted some attention among his ac
quaintances by his frugal habits to
describe them by a gentlor word than
Is employed by his loss considerate
critics. One of his friends undertook
. to convince him that his view of life
. was mistaken.
"You are wasting your time and
eacrgy in tho pursuit of a mere
shadow. You ought to enjoy life."
''But I do enjoy life," insisted the
- thrifty youth. ' '

STRANCE DISCOVERY.
Tho Heverioil Dinner and
versed ( ontnine.
When tho Yale athletes wore in New
York, prior to their departure for Ox
ford, a well-known Brooklyn society
woman gave them a dinner. It is part
of tho erood of these young men never
to exnross surprise at any ioko at
their expense. This their hostoss
know. ISho was determined to compel
a departure from this law and con
ceived her plan with that object in
view. The women of the party had
boon notitlod and were bound over to
silence mtil some comment should be
made by tho broadclothed guosU. At
an exquisitely appointed tablo the
party Bat down. Tho butlers first
served coffee, liqueurs, and can
dies. Next came ieos. Then sal
ads. Talk flowed on brilliantly and
easily. Evidently thoro was no stu
pidity on tho part of tho servants in
serving thus contrary to established
etiquette, for the hostess remained un
concerned. So did tho Yalo men.
Tho reversed dinner wont through its
courses without hitch or jar, until
after tho soun nnd iust boforo the
clams woro Bervod. Thon tho Yalo
man asked to bo excused. Their
hostess acquiesced with a broad touch
of wonder on her face. In ton minutes
tho Ujam filed back into the dining
room, each with his "swallow-tail" on
"hind part boforo." Thoy had done
honor to the reversod dinner. Tho
surfaco of unconcern was broken down.
Tho hostoss was hoisted by her own
petard, but tho tablo rang with ap-plauso.
llalioe'c Dreulnc iown In tho Wardrobe
of tho King of Dahomey.
Unlooked-for things have been
found in unlikely places, but there
has probably been no discovery more
remarkable than that of lialzac' s
dressinsr irown in possession of the
king of Dahomey. Monarch are rare
ly literary, and his dusky majesty,
one would think, was the very last of
them to have set much value upon the
nersoual rolio of a novelist, however
distinguished. Nevertheless the
French found it in the royal apart
ment at Abomey. There were some
Ingenious theories founded upon this
circumstance. One of the ainazons,
it was thought, might have been
a novel reader, and had sent to
Paris to secure the interesting me
monto. and. on the affair coming to
the knowledge of her sovereign, had
hastened to say sho had purchased it
for his own shoulders. For, indeed,
ho always woro it upon state occa
sions. It was not a dressing gown,
such as literary persons iu this coun
try are wont to wear, of second-class
flannel worn at the e isres, but of
purple velvet embroidered with gold.
As a matter of fact, it had been given
to lialzac by some of his admirers and
after his death had been bought by a
dealer in curiosities, who had placed
it, with other showy articles, on the
YVost African market It is sad to
think how a plain tale will "put
down" that is, destroy the materials
of a fine romance.

A COLD FISH.
HE LEARNED
THE CAUSE.
Tailed Once
A Man of the World Who
Too often.
A man of tho world was wont to
call, not infrequently, upon a young
widow, says tho Illustrated American.
One day the pretty maid at the door
announced that her mistress was out
of town. On some pretext, however,
tho man entered. I lo also talked to
the maid. Somo days later, knowing
that tho lady had returned, ho called
again. He was a bit surprised when
a strangQ ruaiJ met him at tho door
and showod him to the little reception
room. While she carriod his card up
the stairs, ho reflected that she was
not so dainty as her predecessor, Rnd
she was not so pretty, though her uni
form was similar, and her cap was as
stiff, and her apron as spotless. lie
was realizing how much more the
woman was to tho dress than the dress
is to the woman, when the maid re
turned and announced, promptly:
Mrs. is not rocoiving." The
man of tho world bit his lip it was
the first time he had ever been denied
admittance- and moved toward the
door. The maid held it open for him.
and as he passed through it she
blurted out: "And she says, if you
please, sir. the maids receive in the
kitchen, sir."
Another Conspiracy Alnt the Tole.
To reach the North polo an archi
tect, M. Hauin, has propejed to tho
Geographical society of l'aris the con
struction of wooden huts one or two
days' journey apart. Ho considers
Greenland the most favorable locality
for an cxiierimcnt of this kind. Kach
of the huts would become in its turn a
base of supplies for the construction
of the next. As tho distance tote
covered is about 900 miles, a score of
huts would bo necessary to establish a
route to the pole.
A Beautiful Specimen of the Japanese
I'apraka Kerently Canght.
O. A. tiuinand, of the Nadeau hotel,
San Francisco, was fishing at Santa
Monica when he caught what at first
sight appeared to be a solid lump of
gold. When the prize was safely
landed it proved to bo a specimen of
the Japanese fish known as the pap-
raka, and by experts it is said to
be the first of its kind ever caught on
that coast
The fish is a beautiful creature, be
ing exactly tne coior oi ournisnea
gold and of gracoful contour. It is
about nine inches in length, five
inches in width and about one and a
half inches thick. The head is short
and the mouth small, but full of rows
of sharp frontal teeth. The dorsal
fin is of. short length, but is sharply
serrated, and continues along the
back, ending in a larger fin, which, in
connection with a corresponding one
underneath the body and the tail,
gives it tho appearance of a three
tailed fish.
A remarkable feature of this beauti
ful fish is that it is furnished with two
distinct sets of gills. The eyes are
prominent and bright yellow in color.
No More of That.
Lyman Oatre, after a stirring meet
ing, had just gone off to bed, and was
in his firbt sleep when he heard a
loud knocking at the door, and a voice
called out: "I am gathering the
opinions of several prominent citizens
6n the so-anfi-so question; kindly tell
me what vou think of it" The next
day Mr. Gage sent round a polite note
to tbe proprietor of the paper 5n which
this nocturnal interview was to have
appeared: "If anvthing of the kind
ever occurs again," he wrote, "I shall
engage a man to go after midnight to
your house and knock yon up at three
a. m , in order to ask you a question
from me." He was never again
troubled in the same way.
