Unexpected Diversions That
Were Not on the Bills
BILL NYES TACTFUL QUERY
It Saved an Embarrnsing Gituation
and Turned a Painful Siience rto a
Burst of Laughter A Simple Notice
That Made an Audience It ar
The funniest humor i the unl iten
tiona kind The best comeiy is that
which lias never boen reiiearsJ or
premeditated but springs to life in
close straits when everything of suc
cess for the platform performer e
pends on his holding the spot lig t nt
his audiences attention throb b i cru
cial strain caused by unexpected di
version
Some of the involuntarv humor of
the platform is worth remembering
nhd repeating For instance
Onre upon a time a lecturer reached
his date at 730 He had to rt his sup
per shave and dress between then and
the usual scheduled startinrr time
815 Accordingly he dressed with more
haste than he had intended and two
top buttons of his trousers failed to
receive proper attention This showed
plainly in the glare of the footlights
and a bit of his dress shirt protruded
noticeably The audience had a hard
time being courteous and reconciling
the ridiculousness of the spenkers ap
pearance with the serious dignity and
beauty of his lecture Still all would
have been well but for the fact that at
the close of the address and while the
speaker still sat on the platform in his
unconscious dishabille the platform
manager rose and announced impres
sively
The next number on this splendid
course will be given two weeks from
tonight by Dr Robert Mclntyre who
will deliver his celebrated lecture
Buttoned Up People
The audience shrieked and to this
day through the tender hearted for
bearance of those people that lecturer
does not know why the announcement
of his confreres beautiful word pic
ture lecture created just that kind of
enthusiasm
At one time Dr Thomas E Green
was submitted to the long Introduction
agony He stood It as patiently as
possible and so did the audience but
when the introducer ceased and bowed
out the paid speaker of the evening
Dr Green walked forward and said in
his most ministerial tone
I am going to add a phrase to the
litany making it read as follows
From our traducers und our intro
ducers good Lord deliver us
Sometimes a town committee is can
tankerous and takes on a degree of
choiciness never dreamed of or aspir
ed to by a city committee At one
time Elias Day a makeup artist was
behind the scenes laying out his wigs
beards etc when a committeeman
came back to see him After the
usual greetings the committeeman
said
I hope to goodness youre bettern
the last number on our course was
Who was it asked Mr Day
Dr Russell Conwell of Philadelfy
Didnt you like him asked Day In
a daze
Rotten said the committeeman
Who came before that
Leland T Powers of Boston
Well you liked him of course
Tumble rotten
And what did you have before
that asked Day now prepared for
anything
Schumann Heink and her compa
ny
Did you hear her
Everbody a kickin Said she was
poorern home talent
Well said Day the settledness of
despair in his tone youll like me
But perhaps the best instance of per
fect adaptation on the spur of the mo
ment is found in an anecdote Bob Bur
dette vouched for as having been the
experience of his illustrious contem
porary Bill Nye
Nye and Burbunk were being starred
that year by Major Pond They were
doing the Canadian provinces and oil
the night of the special episode were
at Victoria British Columbia Bur
bank was doing heavy dramatic work
as the best possible foil for Nyes
subtle and side racking humor But
in the audience were several men who
had that eveniny tasted too frequently
of the flowing bowl These would oc
casionally break forth with remarks
that were models of untimeliness
Finally when Burbank was in the
midst of his most fascinating and trag
ic reading and the audience was hold
ing its breath one whose breath was
too strong to be held burst out into
a maudlin snatch of song which utter
ly sidetracked and discouraged the lec
turer The speaker stopped lost and
confused beyond recall
But Just as the silence was begin
ning to be felt Nye stepped blandly
aid quickly from behind the scenes
Inid his hand on his companions arm
and gazed thoughtfully over the bouse
Then in a mild but distinct voice he
asked
Is Dr Leslie E Keeley in the
room
Ever the fact that It was a near
British audience could not hide the
consummate wit of the remark and
the evening was saved and made a
triumph Instead of ignomlnous defeat
for the speakers Strickland W Gil

Why Stephenson Thought There Wa3
No Pover Equal to It
When George Stephenson was visit
ing the seat of Sir Robert Peel at
Drayton on one occasion says the
writer of Famous British Engineers
there happened to be present Dr
Buckland the scientist and Sir Wil
liam FoIIctt the famous advocate
Stephenson discussed with Dr Buck
laud one of his favorite theories as to
the formation of coal and though un
doubtedly in the right was ultimately
vanquished by the arguments and ora
tory of the doctor who was a better
master of tongue fence than himself
Next morning while pondering over his
defeat in the solitude of the garden he
was accosted by Sir William Follett
and confided to that gentleman the
story of his failure
Sir William acquainted with the de
tails of the matter in dispute agreed
to take up the case and soon after
ward attacked Dr Buckland on the
subject A long discussion ensued in
which the man of law completely si
lenced the man of science who was
at last compelled to own himself van
quished Sir Robert Peel highly
amused at this example of tit for
tat then turned to the inventor and
inquired with a laugh
And what do you say on this mat
ter Mr Stephenson
Why he replied I will only say
this that of nil the powers above and
under the earth there seems to me no
power equal to the gift of the gab
QUAINT EPITAPHS
Gems From Ancient Graveyards In
Suffolk England
The Suffolk England Institute of
Archaeology has been collecting epi
taphs from the ancient graveyards
throughout the shire and several of
the most curious are here printed One
shows traces of a pessimistic philoso
phy surprising when we consider the
strong orthodoxy of the day when the
epitaph was written
Beneath this stone lies Catherine Gray
Changed to a lifeless lump of clay
By earth and clay she got her pelf
And now shes turned to clay herself
Who knows but in the course of years
In some tall pitcher or brown pan
She In her shop may stand again
Another from Suffolk reads as fol
lows
Here lies Robert Wallas
The King of Good Fellows
Clerk of All Hallows
And maker of bellows
These which follow could scarcely be
lines chosen by the reverend occupant
of the tomb himself a clergyman
named Chest
Here lies at rest I do protest
One Chest within another
The chest of wood was very good
Who says so of the other
And to conclude here is a bit of phi
losophy that cannot be improved by
any of the great thinkers of all time
Here I lie outside the chancel door
Here I He because Im poor
The further In the more they pay
But here I lie as warm as they
A Wooden Head
Certain members of the house party
were describing the accidents that bad
happened to them during their various
careers Adventures by flood fire and
field had all been well received and
De Sappleby eager for fame thought
it was his turn
D3 011 know he said I bad a very
painful experience once I ran a con
founded splinter quite half an inch
long right under my finger nail dont
you know
Really Mr de Sappleby said a
maiden of the party IIow did you
do it
Well be said it happened like
this As lie spoke he unconsciously
raised bis hand and scratched his fore
head
Oh I see she interrupted sweetly
IIow very careless of you St Paul

Carpets and Rugs
Carpets and rugs were originally em
ployed by oriental nations for sitting
reclining and kneeling purposes during
devotion When introduced among
the western peoples they were for a
long time used for purely ornamental
purposes covers for tables or couches
and for laying before altars or chairs
of state upon great occasions Carpets
were brought to Europe by the Moors
but It was well into the eighteenth
century before they came into any
thing like general use
Every Little Movement
A visitor to the cobblers shop no
ticed one day a barrel half full of tiny
brass cogwheels
Why he said what are all those
for
Goodness knows answered the
cobbler with a careless laugh I get
about a cupful out of every clock I
mend Philadelphia Bulletin
Reason For His Disgust
Hes disgusted with the way the
politicians are running things in this
town
Is that so
Yes he ran for office and was de
feated Detroit Free Press

woman sharpening a pencil with her
husbands razor
Theres nothing in it No woman
sharpens a pencil She gnaws it to a
