THE "ORIGINAL. ARYAN.
I am tho ancient Aryan,
And you hAVB done me wrong.
I did not come from Hindustan
I've bocn here ajl along.
I nerer traveled from tho east
In hogo racctsslvo waves.
You'll find your ancestors deceased
Inside your own old caves
.Thcro my remains may now Iw sought;
Jllxed up with mastodons,
Thlch Tory long with flints I fought
Before I fought with Lronro.
In tlmple skins I wrapped mo round
Ero mats I luarncd to make.
I due my dwellings In tho ground
Or reared them on a lake.
I had no pen, I'm euro of this.
Although you say 1 penned
All manner of theologies
In Sanskrit and la Zend.
Sly nature you've mUundcrstood.
When first I sojourned here,
I worshiped chunks of stone or wood:
Sly rites were rather queer.
The more my littlo ways yon scan
Tho less you'll care to praise
And bless tho dear old Aryan
Of neolithic days.
They've mixed mo cp till, I declare,
I hardly can report
Whether I first was tall and fair.
Or I was dark and short.
But on two things I tako my stand
Through all their noise and strife
I didn't cocio from Asia, and
I had no higher life. Punch.
DECEIVED BY A DUDE.
Iloir a 83,300,000 Bid by an Unknown Man
Was Taken Seriously.
Samuel P. SckncVors died recently
at Woostcr, O. lie was a brother of J.
W. Scliacfcerc, private secretary of Salm
on P. Chase, and brother-iu-law of
Jobn H. Oberly, ex-civil servxeo com
missioner. Au interesting incident is re
called by Scbnckers' death which has
never found its way in the newspapers.
Tho incident occurred a number of years
ago, and during tho timo of the sale of
the Lake Sboro railroad at Cleveland it
happened that Schuclers and John Mc
Svreeney, the great criminal lawyer,
met at tho sale. McSweeney had but a
short timo befoxo made a great hit by
bis political speeches at Cleveland and
Philadelphia and was attracting atten
tion all over tho country. At this par
ticular time ho was trying a case at
Cleveland. Young Scbnckers was in
these days a veritable dnde and very
sprncy.
Eo went to Cleveland to have a time,
as ho always left Wooster to celebrate,
and was having a good, glorious time on
this particular occasion. He was small
and wiry iu Mature, and always carried
a silk umbrella. It happened that he
met McSweeney in the rotunda jest as
he had finished an argument and while
the salo of the Lake Shore railroad was
going on. They stopped for a moment
at the edge of the excited crowd bid
ding in tho road. There were a number
of syndicates represented foreign. Van
derbilt?, Goulds and others. The bid
ding had reached $3. 100,000. In a spir
it of devilishness young Scbnckers bid
3,500,000. In a moment a rush was
made toward tho new bidder, and a de
mand was made to know what syndi
cs to he represented. His enly reply
was, with a wave of his silk umbrella,
"Go away from rac." The excited rep
resentatives cf the other syndicates ask
ed for a recess, which was granted, and
in 20 xuinntes they came back, when tho
bid was raised to $4,000,000 and sold.
Jlr. Schuckers' sprncy appearance and
being in company with the great crimi
nal lawyer had led them to believe bo
represented some secret syndicate who
were trying to gam possession of tie
valuable railroad property. Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette.
Napoleon's Memory.
Napoleon had a wonderful memory.
When emperor, he once surprised his
council with his intimate knowledge of
Roman law and was asked how he had
obtained it. He stated that when a lieu
tenant he had ence been placed under
arrest and was in prison for two weeks.
During that time the only book at his
command was a treatise on Roman law.
He sat down and in two weeks mastered
the volume so completely that 20 years
later ho could repeat long passages from
its pages. He never forgot a face or a
name and would often greet private sol
diers by their names, sometimes allud
ing to the march or the battle where he
had seen them before. He kept in his
head all the details of bis military
movements, and it was said of him that
during tho march to Italy and Marengo
he knew where every pound of the sup
plies fcr the use of the army was located.
It is said that he remembered the name
of every oScer to whom he ever issued
a commission.
Orderly Music.
A colonel in the French army, who
had a great eye lor neatness, but not
much of an ear for music, took occasion
one day to compliment his bandmaster
on the appearance of bis men. "Their
uniforms are neat," said tho colonel,
"and their instruments aro nicely pol
iahed and kept in order, but thero is one
improvement that I must insist upon."
"What Is It, colonel-"
"Ton mnst train your men, when
tbey perform, to lift tbeir fingers all at
exactly the same time and at regular in
terra Is on their instruments, so one,
two! One, two!" London Answers.
Sure to He the Case.
"I can't tell you," said the experi
encd suburbanite in reply to tho ques
tion of bis new neighbor, "when tho
next train goes, but I can tell yon what
your chances of catching it are.
"What are they?" inquired tho new
neighbor eagerly.
