FACTS AND FANCIES.
., TnE Omnibus relates the following
fitory of a man, who, wilbin the last
lew days, means to turn to account the
popular apprehension " of .poisoners,
wuieh has prevailed tbere since the np
pearance of the cholera. The individ
ual in question, being exceedingly
liungry, and having only a single coin
of the value of a sou, laid it out in the
purchase ot powdered sugar, and, as
lie passed by the stand ot one of those
pponiair cooks who make a sort of
pancake called frittak, be dropped, ap
pttrently by accident, some of the
biigarinto the fryingpan. He was in
Htuntly seized by the bystanders as a
poisoner, caught in the act. Ho do.
niod the imputation, and, at last, to
prove bis innocence, offered to oat the
oontonts of the pan. This proposition
was accepted, ond ho accordingly
dispatched the pancake with great
relish, and thon walked off, well
satisfied with the success of his trick.
Ma. Blaze. At Neva I am called
off shortly af tor my arrival, by an
athletic, scarlet-faced man, who polite
1 y says his name is Blazo.
"I have a little bill ugainst you, 6ir,"
he observes.
"A bill for what?"
. "Drinks?"
Yob, sir at my bar. 1 koop the
well known and respected coffee house
down street." ...
( But my dear sir, there is a mistake.
I never drank at your bar in my life."
"1 know it sir. That isn't the
point. The point is this: 1 pay out
my money for good liquors, and it's
the poople'Bown fault if they don't
drink them. There are the liqnors
do as you please about drinking them,
lut you must pay for them. Isn't
that fair?"
His enprmous body (around which
Tnck wouldn't put a girdle for $10)
hbook gleefully while I road this emi
nently original bill.
Years ago Mr. Blaze was agent of
the California Stage Company. There
was a formidable and well organized
opposition to the California Stage
Company at that time, and Mr. Blaze
rendered them such signal service in
liis capaoity of agent .hat they were
vary sorry when be tendered his res.
ignation.
"You are some $1,600 behind in
your accounts, Mr. Blaze," said tho
president, "but in view of your faith'
Jul and efficient services, we shall
throw off $800 of the amonnt.
Mr. Blaze seems touohed by his gen
erosity. A teer stood in his eyes and
his bosom throbbed audibly.
"You will throw off $800 you will?"
he cried at last, seizing the President's
hand and pressing it passionately to
.his lips.
"I will," "returned the president.
"Well, sir," said Mr. Blaze, "I'm a
gontloman I am you bet 1 and I
won't allow no stago company to sur
pass me in politeness. Til throw off
the other sjouu, ana we li call it square!
No gratitude, sir no thanks it is
my duty "-Artemus Ward.
