one
lectured in a town near Lathrop. the
jilnce where the women made a crusade
upon the saloons and tis isUjd the mon in
managing pubbc affairs. Some of the
men down there need help. Mr. Small
think * : he found Mime- who had not hejird
of the Johnstown flood. In a backwoods
town Mr. Small hud a funny experience.
He was adverted to give a "bright
talk , to be strictly original. "
The town hall was crowded and the
andiencu was appreciative. To illus
trate u certain point the speaker re
ferred to the prophet Daniel jind briefly
gave a history of pie heroic bible char
acter. During this pait of his talk Mr.
Small noticed a tall , broad-shouldered
granger -with stubby whiskers who ap
peared displeased with the k-cture. Al
ter the talk was over and Mr. Small left
the platform this granger approached
him -with the request :
"Sny , I want ter get my money hack. "
"What is the matter ? " asked Mi1.
SmalL
" "VThy , the show wasn't what you ad
vertised. Them big handbill * on the
town hall said 'twas going to be an orig
inal lecture and nothing old , I didn't
fork over a Quarter to hear a lot of chest
nuts. " '
"What displeased you ? "
"Why you told that tale about this
man Daniel and the lions.5"
"Yes. "
"WolLeen that in a Chicago paper

The fortunes ol war are strange. One
day in the Southern hotel at St. Louis , a
few months ago. Mr. J. B , McCullagh ,
the editor < if the Globe-Democrat , was
sitting reading a newspaper whea a gen
tleman walked up , and , extending his
hand , said :
"How do you do , Mr. McCullagh ? "
The editor pat out his hand and said :
"How do you do , eir'r' "
"You don't socsin M > know me , * ' the
stranger remarked.
"Oh , res , I do , " said Mr. McCnllagh
"Well , who am I ? " inquired the
stranjrer.
"Ill answer you in this way , " said
Mr. Mt'OuHjwrh , "The last time I saw

In the summer of 1042 , while taldncr
part in the annual military exercises ,
Bismarck was standing one afternoon on
a bridge with the officers of the land-
wehr , when his servant rods the horses
to water b-jlow. One of them liecame
re ve , lost its footing and dragged its
rider into deep water. His master at
once cast aside sword and coat and
sprang from the bridge to save him. As
he was an expert swimmer , the rescue
would have been eay. . but the drown
ing man clung to him with such tenacity
as to imp-de his movements. In a mo
ment Bismarck'e mind was made up.
He dived and kct the terror-stricken
creature under water until he became in
sensible and relaxed his gras-p. Then
he brought him safely to the bant By
a few simple appliances animation was
restored and b ; > th lives saved. The
presence of mind and the fearless resolu
tion which such an action displayed
were well known to lie among the pe
culiarities of the "mad lord of Enejl-
hof , * " as his neighbors called him.
The Brazilian nabob , Baron Ferean ,
who died not long since , was as miserly
in trifles as he wa extravagant in other
directions , says the Philadelphia Tuaes.
It was one of his puculiarities never to
foe servant * , and the waiters of the
various hotels at which he sojourned
were for that reason not partial to him ,
One morning while staying at the
magnificent Maux hotel , in Bio de
Janeiro he came down to breakfast and
ordered a outlet. After he had eaten it
he ordered a seoond.
"Baron , * * said the head waiter , mali
ciously , -it's a custom with us never to
serve the same course twic'a at one
meal. "
"Is that so ? " add Feraan , and rising
from the table left the room.
In ten minutes he came buck into the
dining room , "Waiter , " said he"I have
just bought this hotel and am master
here now. As you will not be able to get
HWUr-tornod to roy plan of serving the
gue.-ts aooording to their wishes vou are
dismis-t d at onoe. * ' Thereupon he took
up his napkin again and callea to another
waiter :
"Now , bring IB * another outlet. "
A vary good exam pie is set by the Ein-
peror William in di. penain the same
weight and tie same meaioire in * mili
tary cur-es to all offender * , and it would
be well if it were followed ia this coun

Frank had a lot of tiuntils of the bitten , on
hand. He put it altogether in a ( sorncr'with
a lot of empty barrels , and covered the whole

muled down. T\vo days later Gilmore cnme

eravcd by the boys and Bill Owsiey wai nlso-
pif&ent. Giluioi-e talked business and sold
some Golden Sheaf whisky , cologne spirits
utid other stuff to Frank Finally he asked
if the stouk of East India bitters wus all used
up.
