not of a party but of the United States, is
to be inaugurated, it is but courtesy dne

and potty issues comes that swelling of
the heart at the theught: "I am an
American; this is ray country, and there
floats its emblem." No matter whore a

The ladies of Cushing Relief Corp3 No.

erty Hall this Wednesday evening, March
4th, from five to eight o'clock. It will bo
well managed, and will doubtless bo well
patronized. There will be music, vocal
and instrumental, by soma of the best
local talent and the supper will be one of
the best ever set in tho city. Admission
will be free; supper 50 cents. It is usual
throughout the count ry nixm tho inaugu
ration of a president to have some ob
servance of the occasion, and the Relief
Corps has very properly concluded that a
good supper would be'as good a way as
any of celebrating the inauguration.
Every one will be nnde wolcorae, and a
general imitation is extended to the
public. The proceeds of the supper ure
to be devoted to charity, tno charity that
is "twice blewted,"' blessing those who
give and those who take. The appeal of
charity to Astorinns is never made iu
vain, and tho kind ladies who are devo
ting so much effort to the entertainment
Should have n hearty response to their
zealous endeavors.

One evening many years ago the writer
of this attended a" social gathering of
young folks iu a Wisconsin village, and
after various games had been played, all
involving more or less oscillatory prac
tice, there was a lull in the exercises, and
wo all sut nrouud in tho parlor fating
nuts and pop corn. A very fiue New
foundland dog lay stretched out near the
lire, and Carrie, the lively daughter of
the hostess, calling Bruno to her, told
him to stand up. and amused us for some
time by placing korinls of corn on his
nose, and repeating: "On-, twoc three,
fire!' when the dog would toss the corn
up, catch it and eat it with relish. She
then made him lie down and roll oer,
and do various triiks, finally elosiiig by
having him stand on his head. As the
noble dog resumed his natural jwsition
Carrie said to Charlie f., "There Char
lie, you can't do that." Just at that mo
ment, when all eyes v. era still on the
dog, he dropied on his haunches and
commeuoed vigorously scratching his ear
with his hind foot in' the effort to dis
lodge u wicked flea. "No, 1 don't believo
I can," said Charlie, "nor you either."
And then n cyclone ot laughter swept
through the room, and Carrie's cheeks
were tho color of the red, red rose. Those
were good old days.
Brown (who has just had the telephone
connection established between his office

Mark Twain, it seems, is a verv con
genial, moderate fellow, and likes a
convivial timo with friends. A few years
ago, when he was here, a committee of
newspaper men waitd upon him and
tendered some sort of entertainment in
his behalf. "Well," said he. with his
customary colloquial limp, "I've had a
good deal of this sort of marble palace
and gilded chandelier business and 1
don't want any more, but if 1 could get
together with the boj'S in a quiet, cosy
place, where a fellow might smoke a cob
pipe and pat his feet on the table if ho
wanted to. then 1 don't know Jjut what
I'd eniov it." The place was procured
and the humorist sat with the pipe and
tobacco beside hiin and his hat on his
head and related yarns the whole night
through to the edification of a score of
fellow scribblers.

Tho following dav Mr. Jnrphlv had for

his wife, however. She treasured it up.

sured suo mRc her husband, who was
already sore over the defeat, a great deal
sorer. .Numerous times sue bantered nini
to make good his promise of going upon
the front steps iu deshabille and telling
the neighbors he was the darndest fool in

Monday night Jarphly, who had been
keeping exceptionally early hours, came
homo at a very unseasonable time. He
had n dull, dead-sea-wave, bury-me-in-the-woodlands
feeling in his legs as he
ascended the steps and pulled the bell.
To his utter 'surprise Mrs. Jarphly. all
wreathed in smiles, met him. No refer
ence was made to its being midnight,
and thej' billed and cood in the happiest
manner. Jarpbby never was so tickled
iu his life, and told his wifo that he had
that very dav hssn looking over some
sealskin sacques, and was not only highly
gratified but greatly surprised to hear her
intimate thatsho believed him. Shortly
after retiring Mrs. Jarphly ctorted up
and said sbo thought she heard a noise
in the hall.
"I don't hear nothing.,' slid Jarphly,
"I'm sure I did," responded tho lady.
"O, nonsense. You women are

"You mean you men aiso timid. 1

"Am I?" holly exclaimed Mr. Jarphly.

"1 know it's all foolishness, but just to

he jameil, and, seizing n bootjack, went
down stairs. cloclv followed bv his wife.
'There, didn't i tell yon"" he ex
claimed, as they readied th. front

"Sh h h! 1 hear something vl the

excitedly whispered the lady.
"Bosh"!' cried Jarphly contemptuously.
"111 open it for you." nd fortuwith he
opened it and steppjd out into the moon

"Yes," and the door closed with n
bang, and the bolt shot on it with liqLi

"Good gracitKLs!" cried the dismayed
