a Soutb Carolina town. lie was ex
ceedingly tall ao attenuated, In fact,
that but for his bat be would not
bave cant a shadow. One nlg-ht a
number of fellow bou vlvanta Joined
him In a synipoHlum, and many mint
Juleps were consumed. One of tbe
party uimteadliy produced a revolver.
It was accidentally discharged, and
bullet struck Kill Jones In tbe leg.
Conscience stricken and wabbly with
excitement and Juleps, the owner of
tbe weapon hastened to tbe home of
the nearest doctor and pulled tbe door
bell. At length tbe physician, who bad
himself been spending a riotous even
ing, stuck bis bead from tbe second
story window.
"Whazza nmzzer?" he demanded
thickly.
"I Jush shot Bill Jones In the leg,"
replied the man below.
"Shot BUI Jones in tbe leg!" repeat
ed the doctor wouderlngly.
"Thash wha' I sbuld," returned the
offender "shot BUI Jones In the leg."
The doctor gazed down upon biro
admiringly.
"Well." he said, "that wash a hell
of a good shot"
And be closed tbe window and went
back to bed.

Nor chance glva up her key.

Luck la sleepy sentinel
And Chance a tickle light.

Take up the magic torch and key
And let thine own self In!

Charles Mathews, tbe famous Eng
lish actor, once Indulged in bis talent
for mimicry to bis own misfortune.
Mr. Tattersall, the well known auc
tioneer, was conducting a sale of blood
ed stock. "The first lot, gentlemen,"
said Mr. Tattersall, "Is a bay filly by
Smoleusko."
"The first lot, gentlemen," echoed
Mr. Mathews In tbe same tone of
voice, "Is a bay Ally by Smolensko."
Tbe auctioneer looked somewhat an
noyed, but proceeded. "Well, what
shall we beglu with?"
"Well, what shall we begin wlthT
replied the echo.
Still endeavoring to conceal bis vexa
tion, Mr. Tattersall called out, "One
hundred guineas?"
"One hundred guineas?" echoed
Mathews.
"Thnnk you, sir." cried Mr. Tatter
sall, bringing down tbe hammer with
a bang, "the filly Is yours!"
Could He Help It?
A lady and a Mttle boy entered tbe
car, but the boy squirmed and fidget
ed so much on his seat that at last one
of the other passengers expostulated:
"For goodness' soke, keep your child
still, madam!"
"I'm very sorry," said the mother,
"but the truth Is until I get to the hos
pital I shan't be able to quiet him."
"Dear me! What's the matter with
blra?"
"He swallowed a teaspoon yesterday,
and ever since he's been on the stir."

Tat Flunlgan had been summoned
to'Jury duty. Coming downstairs one
morning dressed In his Sunday
clothes, his wife looked at him and
said:
"Where are you going, Pat?"
He replied. "I'm going to coort."
"H'm!" said the wife, and Tat stalk
ed out. Next morning Pat came down
stairs all shaved and shorn, with tbe
same suit of clothes on.
"And where are you golBg today?"
said the wife.
"8ure, I'm going to coort."
"Ye are, are ye?"
Tat went out and slammed the door.
The third morning Pat came In and
at down to the breakfast table with
the same suit of clothes on and greet
ed his wife, who said:
"And where are ye going this morn
Ing. Tat?"
"I'm going to coort"
The wife laid her hands upon a
rolling pin, stood before the door and
said:
"Ye're going to coort, are ye?"
"Yls," said Tat.
"No, ye're not. If there's any coort
Ing to be dono It will be done right
here. Go upstairs and take off thlm
clothes."-New ark Star.
Wort Than tha Third Degrss.
A married man ran away with a
silly young girl, and after an exciting
chase the elopers were finally cap
lircd and returned to their homos.
Feeling In the town ran high against
the man, ai.d a number of neighbors
Here sitting together one evening dis
cussing the case. Naturally every
body bad an Idea of bis own as to
what action should be taken against
tbe married man.
One suggested Jail for life, another
said ninety years In the penitentiary
would do, and a third offered tar and
feathers. A little man who sat In tbe
corner looked up and smiled.
"I have a scheme," he remarked,
"that beats all of yours a mile."
"What would you do with him?"
the chorus asked.
"I would turn him over to bis wife's
mother," said the nu'et Utile man.

A Writer In the Wrong Pew.
When James Payn was editor of the
Cornhlll Magazine bis private office
was invaded one day by an unan
nouueed visitor who had managed to
evade the porter downstairs. The call
er's balr was long, and bis clothes were
shabby and untidy. He bad a roll of
paper lu bis hand. Payn, surmising
a poet and an epic several thousand
lines long, looked up.
"Well, sir?"
"I've brought you something about
sarcoma and carcinoma."
"We are overcrowded with poetry
couldn't accept another line, not if it
were by Milton."
"Poetry!" the caller flashed. "Do
you know anything about sarcoma and
carcinoma?"
"Italian lovers, aren't they?" said
I'ayn lmperturbobly.
The caller retreated with a wither
ing gin nee at tbe editor. Under the
same roof as the Cornhlll was the
office of a uu-dlca! and surgical Jour
nal, and It was this that tbe caller
sought for the disposal of a treatise
on those cancerous growths with the
euphonious names which, with a lay
man's Ignorance, Payn ascribed to
poetry. McClure's.
Things to Forget.
If you see a tall fellow ahead of a crowd.
A leader of men, marching fearless and
proud.
And you know of a tale whose mar tell
ing aloud
Would cause hia proud head to In angulab
be bowed,
It's a pretty good plan to forget It.
If you know of a skeleton hidden away
la a closet and guarded and kept from
the day
In the dark and whose showing, whose
sudden dUjilay,
Would cause grief and so-row and life
long dismay,
It'a a pretty good plan to forget It.
If you know of a thing that will darken
the Joy
Of a man or a woman, a eirl or a bnv.
That will wle out a smile or the least
way annoy
A fellow or cause any gladness to cloy.
It's a pretty good plan to forget It.
Hoist With His Own Petard.
The girl with the soft, appealing
eyes looked up at the tall, broad
shouldered young man who was hov
ering alMnit her with a protecting air,
having Just won her from a hated
rival.
"Jim," she murmured, "now that
we've been engagpd ever since lust
night, and you won't ever need to be
Jealous again, I've brought you to se
lect a tie for for anyway, you will,
won't you? A man's taste Is so cor
rect In such things."
"For rhll, you mean? Of course I
will," Jim replied with a magnani
mous air. "This green tie with tbe
yellow strles Is fine and dandy. Get
him that."
"Are you sure It Is quite your
choice," the girl asked anxiously.
Usually you select such quiet ties."
"That is precisely my taste," tbe
young man said glibly.
The girl exchanged a two dollar bill
for the gmidy necktie and a moment
later slipped It Into ber companion's
hand.
"Jim." she said, "I can't Just keep
it secret an Instant longer. It'a really
for yoib-the first gift I've ever given
you so I wanted It be exactly what
you liked. You must wear It always
when you come to see me, added the
possessor of the soft, appealing eyes,
with an adorable blush. Kansas City
Times. i
An Eye Out.
Dispute over a cab fure lu London
gave Henry Herman, the dramatist,
opportunity for playing a grim Joke at
the driver's expense. Herman was the
unfortunate possessor of a glass eye,
which, on Jehu's waxing demonstra
tive with his whip, whereof the lash
passed perilously near, be suddenly
pulled out aud thrust In cabby's
face. "You rascal," bo vociferated,
look what you've done! You've cut
ray eye out!" Itbout waiting Tor tbe
money in dispute tho driver lashed bis
horse and fled aghast.
A Sad Experience.
C. K. G. Billings, the famous horse
man, had a sad, heartbreaking expe
rience with the first horse be ever
owned.
When quite a young man Mr. Bil
lings fancied a fast trotting mare
priced to him at $2,000; but, not hav
ing more than $500 to bis name, he
persuaded bis mother to advance him
tbe balance, which she did after much
coaxing and begging. In due time his
father beard of the fast trotter bis son
had bought and expressed a desire to
try her.
The request was complied with, and
after a few spins on the road the old
gentleman asked how much he bad
paid for ber.
"Six hundred dollars, father," was
the answer.
"Well, Charley, the maro Is not
worth It." said tho governor, "but I
rather like tho way she steps, so I
will take ber from you, and you can
have your ?i500."
The deal lind to be closed.
Nature Fakers of Fame.
Fancy and Imagination are at a dis
count, and our young Gradgrlnds want
strict facts. It was different years
ago, when boys delighted In "The
Island Home," even though the author
of that desert island story made the
albatross come up from tbe depths of
the sea, a beautiful glittering creature
with fins and scales, and described a
battle royal between a sperm whale
and a thrashing shark and swordfisb.
Again, how popular was "Tbe Swiss
Family Robinson." In spite of the fact
that In their' wonderful Island were
found a Hon. a polar bear and a kanga
roo, and the whole family, though
armed with guns, were blockaded for
days by a boa constrictor. London
Outlook.
THE POKER.
Hardly Changed Since the Days ef the
Early Metal Workers.
As tbe first fireplace was a circle of
stones at tbe mouth of a cave, so tbe
first poker was a piece of green stick.
It was necessary to bave' something to
kuock tbe logs together wltb when
they began to bum through tbe mid
dle, and as primitive mau did not wear
boots be could not use them to kick
tbe hot embers Into place, as some of
us do to this day. Tbat waa a refine
ment. If It can be so called, which
came later. Tbe green stick lasted un
til tbe age of Iron and was then super
seded by a bandy piece of metal which
possessed the advantage of being
stronger aud of not burning away.
But since tbe days of the early work
ers in metal we have made no ad
vance. Tbe poker has hardly. If at all,
changed through tbe ages. It is, as It
always has been, simple and severe of
outline. It lenda Itself to no vagaries
and to little ornamentation. It Is one
of tbe few things which no one has
ever patented, because It may be said
to bave leaped from tbe first foundry
perfect and complete In every respect.
The only notable attempt at Improve
ment has been to make the poker of
brass wltb a twisted column, but even
then tbe Iron poker lurks at tbe aide
and Is known as tbe curate, because It
does all tbe rough work. Tbe orna
mental poker Is not a poker at all, but
a sbam, an upstart masquerading un
der an ancient and honored name and
gaining credit for duties which It Is
unable to perform. London Globe.
A GREAT BATTLE.
The One Known In History as the
"Victory of Victories."
Tbe battle which Is known la his
tory as the "Victory of Victories" took
place at Nebavcnd, in Ecbatana, and
waa fought between tbe new Moslem
power In C37 and tbe empire of Per
sia, then one of the most powerful of
the eastern monarchies. It was one of
tbe most absolutely decisive battles In
tbe history of war, and it was all the
more amazing by reason of the fact
tbat It was won by a people who
twenty years before bad been un
known barbarians, lost In the deserts
of Arabia.
Arabian historians place tbe Persian
loss In a single day at 100,000 men
killed. This may be and probably Is
an exaggeration, but tbe fact remains
that the Persian dynasty came to an
end when the battle was over and that
Zoroastrlanlsm, which had been the re
ligion of Persia for over a thousand
years, was at once supplanted by Is
lam. Its modern representatives, as Is
well known, are now tbe Parsees of
India.
Tbe victory was so absolutely de
cisive that it extended the Arabian do
minions over the whole of the region
lying between the Caspian sea and the
Indian ocean. With the exception per
haps of the battle of Tours, no single
fight ever made such a difference In
the after history of the world.
She Knew the Reason.
He was smoking and musing over
tbe ways of the world. "Odd, Isn't It,"
be said at last, "bow few people at
tain tbelr ideals In this world?"
"In what way?" Inquired his wife
suspiciously, for she was not a woman
to be caught off ber guard.
"Well," he replied slowly, "I was
thinking of Wllraer when I spoke. He
bad an Ideal woman that be was al
ways talking about when be was In
college. She was tall and stately In
his dreams, and be seemed to bave no
place In bis heart for a small woman,
and yet and yet"
"Well?"
"Why, be finally married a little
thing who hardly comes to bis shoul
der. I wonder why it was."
"Perhaps. Fred," she said very slow
ly and distinctly, "be Is like tbe ma
jority of other men and was afraid
to take any one of his size."
He changed tbe subject.
A Shocking Tree.
There Is a peculiar tree In the for
ests of central India wblcb has most
curious characteristics. Tbe leaves of
tbe tree are of a highly sensitive na
ture and so full of electricity that
whoever touches one of them receives
an electric shock. It has a very singu
lar effect upon a magnetic ueedle and
will Influence It at a distance of even
seventy feet The electrical strength
of the trees varies according to tbe
time of day. It being strongest at mid
day and weakest at midnight In wet
weather Its powers disappear alto
gether. Birds never approach tbe
tree, nor have insects ever been seen
upon it.
Old English Fairs.
Fairs and feasts were formerly held
la churchyards lu honor of the saint
to whom tbe church was dedicated.
In consequence of these popular gath
erings being much abused they had
to be suppressed in the thirteenth year
of the reign of King Edward III., as
appears by the folio wlug extract, quot
ed by Spclman: "And tbe Kynge com
ma ndetb and forbiddetb tbat from
henceforth neither fairs and markets
shall be kept in churchyards for tbe
honour of the Church. Given at West
minster, the VIII of Octobre, the XIII
yea re of Kynge Edwarde's relgne."
