Holmes and Kerr.
Os the many anecdotes illustrating
the genial humor and prodigious memo
ry of Oliver Wendell Holmes, the fol
lowing was related by one of the poet’s
classmates, John BozmanKerrof Mary
land :
Mr. Kerr was as aristocratic in His
notions as Holmes himself, and was so
unusually particular about the spelling
of his name that it became a laughing
matter with the students. Twenty years
after the class had graduated Mr. Kerr
had occasion to visit Boston, and while
there called upon his old classmate,
then grown famous. When Mr. Kerr
was ushered into Holmes’ study, the
poet hurried forward, and, seizing his
old friend with both hands, cried hearti
ly, “Welcome to Boston, J-o-h-n B-o-z
--m-a-n K-e-r-r, ” as fast as he could spell
it.—Washington Post.
His Only Joke.
John Anthon, who lives in law li
braries between the covers of an old
calfskin treatise labeled “Anthon’s Nisi
Prius,” was a gentleman of solemn vis
age, solemn mien and solemn address
while at the bar. But he was known in
a moment of impatience to be once fun
ny. Opposed to a lawyer named Ed
mund J. Porter, he began his address to
the jury by saying, “Now, gentlemen,
I shall ask your aid to bottle up Por
ter, ” who quickly responded, “If they
do. I shall foam. ” —Green Bag.

EXPLAINS HIS DISCOVERY.
Dr, Holme* Tells tike New Method of Diag
nosing Consumption.
City of Mexico, Nov. 19.—Dr. A. M.
Holmes of Denver, who is here by spe
cial invitation of the medical congress,
explained the manner in which he had
discovered the method of diagnosing
consumption by the examination of a
drop of blood, enabling physicians to
treat the disease while yet in the blood
and before it had attacked the system of
the patient. The story has been the
subject of comment of all the medical
journals and professional men.
Dr. Holmes attended the cong ess at
the urgent invitation of its members,
who desired to have the discoverer read
the paper. It is by far the most impor
tant subject the congress has taken up
so far in its session, and it is generally
believed that the discovery is far reach
ing, in that it is believed that a method
has been brought to light that, if it will
not cure, will prevent the progress aud
arrest the speed of the disease.
Harrison Will Vest His Theory.
San Francisco, Nov. 19.—William

years of age and on that day he says
that he will walk to San Jose, which is
50 miles from San Francisco. Thereby
he will test his theory, which is that
a man of 60 years may be as vigorous as
a man of 30 if he has been careful in
diet, sleep aud exercise.

the tail and hoofs of—something else.
Over it he wrote: “Some seem to think
he’s got wings like an angel; some,
that he’s got a cloven foot and a forked
tail. He is quite an ordinary little man.
I assure you. ”

Speaking of the batteship “Texas”

in Egypt. He said “We have the
greatest navy on earth and all we
need is ships, we have plenty of wa.

The following little bit of verse
was reeieved by The Spectator ad
dressed to him in an angular hand
write evidently feminine though it is
plainly an attempt at disguise. .It
reads:
“Dear Mr. Reynolds: Observing
your fondness for chic poetry I ran
across this in my scrap book placed
there sometime in my girlhood days—
how long ago I know not —It may or
may not please you—
From a regular reader of the “Spec
tator. ” “Belle.”
And here it is.
’Twas at a ball. In vain I tried
To feel.less like a social martyr,
When lying on the floor, I spied
A thing of yellbw silk—a— !
I put a dash there, for ’tis said
To write it plainly out amiss is;
Yet England’s motto maj’ be read
Upon just such a thing as this is.
I Stooped, and hid it in my hand.
And wonder’d who might be the loser;
She could not ask me for the band!
How such a question would confuse her!
Returning with it to my place,
I wonder’d if my cheek were flushing,
In turn I scanned each lovely face
Until I saw how you were blushing!
My own perception I had wronged,
lo think that I would not have known her
To whom this dainty baud belonged;
No one but you could be the owner.
So thus I send it back to you.
Around this bunch of blushing roses!
One found it whom you never knew;
Whose name no hint of mine discloses.
I would not have you guess ’twas I,
For that might putjconstraint upon you.
Perhaps you’ll know me by and by;
Perhaps you’ll love me! When I’vewon you
I’ll whisper that ’twas I who found
This clinging silken band of yellow.
We’re strangers, still 1 will be bound
You, and no other, have its fellow!
And now may my respect for you
Plead pardon sot these rhyming fancies
For never motto was more tiue
Than “Honi soit qui mal y pense’, is!
