am 1 an alarmist when I say that a storm is
coming, compared with winch Noah’s deluge
was Imt an April shower; and that it is the
wisest, and safest for you and for me to get
safi lv housed for eternity. The invitation
that went forth to Noah sounds in our cars:
“Come l.liou and all thy house into the ark.”
Will, how did Noah and his family come
into the arkf Did they climb in at the win
dow, or come down the roof' No; they went
through the door. And just so, if weget into
the ark of God’s merry, it will lie through
Christ the door. The entrance to the ark of
old must have been a very large entrance.
Uo know that it was from tlie fact that
there were monster animals in the earlier
ages; and, in order to get them into the ark
fwo and two, according to the Bible state
ment, the door must have been very wide and
very high. So the door into the mercy of
God is a large do.ir. We go in, not two by
two, but by hundreds, and by thousands, and
In mi I lit ms. Vea, all the na’tionsof the earth

I ho door of the ancient ark was in the side
So nowit is through the side of Christ—the
pierced side, the wide-ojien side, the heart
side that we enter. Aha! the Roman soldier,
thrusting his spear into the Saviour’s side
expected only to let the blood out, but he
o|hm m| the wav to let all the world in. O,
wh.ii a broad Gospel to preach! If a man is
about to give an entertainment., lie issues one
or two hundred invitations, carefully put up
and directed to the particular persons whom
he wishes to entertain. But God our Father
makes a banquet, and goes out to the front
door of heaven and stretches out his hands
over land and sen, and, with a voice that
jK'iiet rates the Hindoo jungle and the Green
land ice castle, and Brazilian grove, and
English factory, and Aiuerean home,
erics out: “Come, for all things are
now ready.” It is a wide door!
Ihe old cross has been taken apart, audits
two pieces are stood up for the door [Mists, so
tar apart that all the world can come’in.
Kings scatter treasures o.i days of great re
joicing. Ho ( hrist, our King, comes and

the crevices of the door. But he was not
obliged thus to go in. After having preached
the gospel in Surrey Chap and. going up toward
heaven, the gate keeper cried : “ Lift up you

Further: It is adoor that swings both ways.

ark was lifted, oi* rolled on hinges; but this
door of Christ opens lioth ways. It swings
out toward all oar wives; it swings in to

Nwing in. Oh blosse l door! until all the
earth shall go in and live. Swing out until
a l the heavens come forth to celebrate the
' ietory.
But. further, it is a door with fastenings.
I'lic Bible says <>f Noah: “The Lord shut
him in.” A v,s e’t without bulwarks or doo s
woali not be a safe vessel to go in. When
Noah and liis family hoard the fastening of
the door of the ark, they were very glad.
1 nless those doors were fastened, the first
heavy surge of the sea would have whelmed
them; and they might as well have perished
outside the ark as inside the ark. "1 lie Lord

1 here comes upon the good man a deluge of
financial trouble. He had his thousands to
lend; now he cannot borrow a dollar. He
cnee owned a store in New York, and had
branch houses in Boston. Philadelphia and
New Orleans. He owned-four horses, and
employ ed a man to keep the dust off his coach,
phaeton, carriage and curricle; now he has
hard work to get shoes in which to walk. The
great and vp of commercial disaster was broken
up. and fore, and aft. and across the hurri
cane deck, the waves struck him. But he was
safely sheltered from the storm. “The Lord
shut him in.” A flood of domestic trouble fell on
lum. Sickness and bereavement came. The
rain pelted. The winds blew. The heavens
aiv aflame. All the gardens of earthly de
light are washed away. The fountains of jov
an' buried fifteen cubits deep. But, standing
by the empty crib, and in the desolate nurs
ery. and in the doleful hall, once a-ring with
merry voices, now silent forever, he cried:
’■ Ihe Lord gave, the Lord hath taken away;
blessed be the name of the Lord.” "The Lord
simt him in.” All the sins of a lifetime
clamored for his overthrow. The broken
vows, the dishonored Sabbaths, the outrage
ous profanities. the misdemeanors of twenty
years, reached up their bands to the door of
the ark to pull him out: The Ik uadless ocean
of l us -in surrounded his soul, howling like a
simoom, raving like an eurociydou. But,
looking out of the window, he saw his sms
sink line lead into the depths of the sea. The

him toward heaven. ■* The Lord shut him in.”

an 1 takes another twist in the reins, and
plants his feet against the dash-board, and
pulls back. But no use. It is not so much
down the avenue that he flies as on the way
to eternity. Out of the wreck of the crash
his body is drawn, but his soul is
not picked up. It fled behind a
swifter courser into the great future.
Ihwd! and outside the ark! Or, some
night, ho wakes up with a distress that
momentarily increases, until he shrieks out
with pain. The doctors come in, and they
giv e him twenty drops, fifty drops, sixty
drops, but no relief. No time for prayer. No
time to read one of the promises. No time to
get a single sin pardoned. The whole house
is aroused in alarm. The children scream.
Ihe wife taints. The pulses fail. The heart
stops. The soul flies. Oh, my God! dead!
and outside the ark!
I have no doubt that derision kept many
People out of the ark. The world laughed to
see a man go in, and said: “Hero is a man
starting for the ark. Why, there will be no
deluge. If there is one, that miserable ship
will not weather it. Aha! going into the ark I
W ell. that is too good to keep. Here, fellows,
have you heard the news? This man is going
into the ark.” Under this artillery of scorn
the man’s good resolution perished.
And so there are hundreds kept out by the
fear of derision. The young man asks him
self: “What would they say at the store to
morrow morning, if 1 should become a Chris
tian ! When Igo down to the club-house they
would shout: “Here comes that new Chris
tian. Suppose you are praying now. Get
down on j'our knees and let us hear you pray*.
Come, now, give us a touch. Will not do it,
oh i Pretty Christian you are.’ ” Is it not the
fear of I icing laughed at that keeps you out of
the kingdom of God? Which of thesescorners
will kelp you at the hist? When you lie down
on a dying pillow, which of them will lie
there? in the day of eternity, will they bail
you out ?
My friends and neighbors, come in right
away. Come in through Christ, the wide,
door—the door that swings out toward you.
Come in. and be saved. Come and be happy.
“The Spirit and the Bride say, Come.” Room
in theark! Room in the ark!
But do not come alone. The text invites
you to bring your family. “Come thou and
all thou house.” That means your wife and
your children. You cannot drive them in.
If Noah had tried to drive the pigeons and
the doves into tlie ark, he would only have
scattered them. Some parents are not wise
about tie's ' things. They make iron .mles about
Sabbaths, and they force the catechism down
the throat . as they would hold the child’s nose
and force down a dose of rhubarb and calomel.
You cannot drive your children into the ark.
You .can draw your children to Christ, but
you cannot coerce them. The cross was
lifted, not to drive, but to draw. “If Ibe
lifted up l will draw all men unto me.” As
the sun draws up the drops of morning dew,
so the Sun of Righteousness exhales the teal's
of repentance.
“Come thou and all tliy house into theark.”
Be sure that you bring your husband and
wife with you How would Noah have felt
if, when he heard the rain pattering on the
roof of the ark, he knew that his wife was
outside in the storm? No; she went with
him. And yet some of you are on the ship
“outward bound” for h ,*aveil, but your com
panion is unsheltered. You remember when
the marriage ring was set. Nothing has yet
been able to break it. Sickness cam*. and
the linger shrank, but the ring sti don
twain stood alone above a child's grave, .1
the dark mouth of the tomb swallowed up a
thousand hopes : but the ring dropped not
into the open grave. Days of poverty came,
and the hand did many a hard day’s work ;
but the rubbing of the work against the
ring only made it shine brighter. Shall that
ring ever be lost ! Will the iron clang of the
sepulchre-gate crush it forever ? I pray* God
that you who have been marred on earth may
be together in heaven. Oh! by the quiet bliss
of your earthly home; by the babe's cradle :
by all the vows of that day when you started
life together, I beg von to see to it that you
both get into the ark.
Come in, and bring your wife or your hus
band with you—not by* fretting about re
ligion. or ding-donging them about religion,
but by a consistent life, and by a competing
prayer that shall bring the throne of Goa
down into your bedroom. Better live in the
smallest house in Brooklyn and get into heaven
than live fifty years in the finest, house on
Madison Square, and wake up at last ana
find that one of you. for all eternity, is out
si le the ark. Go home to-night; lock the
door of your room: take up tiie Bible and
read it together, and then kneel down and
commend your souls to Him who has watched
you all thes* years: and, before you rise,
there will lx* a fluttering of wings over your
head, angel crying to angel: "Behold they

But this does not include all your family.
Bring the children too. God bless the dear
children! What would our homes bo with

them. They have done more for us. \\ nat
a salve for a wounded heart there is in the soft
palm of a child’s hand! Did harp or flute
ever have such music as there is in a child'*
••good-night?” From our coarse, rough life, the
angels of God are often driven back: but who
comes into the nursery without feeling that
angels are hovering around; They who die
in infanev go into glory, but you are expect
ing vour children to grow up in this world.
Is it'not a question, then, that rings through
all the corridors, and windings, and heights,
and depths of your soul, what is to be
come of vour sons and daughters for time
and for eternity. “O!" you say. “I mean
to see that they have goo i manners. ” Yery well
••1 mean todress them well, if I have myself to
go shabbv.” Very good. "I shall give them an
education, and I shall leave them a fortune.”
Yery well But is that all: Don't you mean
to take them into the ark? Dou't you know
that the storm is coming, and that out cf
Christ there is no safety? no pardon: no hope?
no heaven?
How to get them in? Go in yourself. If
Noah had staid out. do you not suppose that
his sons, [shein. Ham. and Japhet. would have
staid out? Your sons and dau,*>-***, will be
apt to do just as you do. Reject Christ your
self, and the probability i> that your cliildreu
will reject Him.
An account was taken of the religious vn
dition of families m a certain district. In tie
families >t pious parents, two-thirds or the
children were Christians. In the families
where the parents were ungodly, only one
twelfth of the eliil Iren were Christians. Re
sponsible as you are for their temporal exist
l enee you are also responsible for their eter
nitv.’ Which way* wid y*ou take them? Out
imo tli c delugr. or into the ark'? Have yo
ever made one earned prayer for their 'im
mortal souls? What will ’you say in the
judgment when God asks: “Whereis George,
or Henry*, or Frank, or Mary, or Anna?
TV here are those precious souls whose inter
ests I committed into your hands?”
A dying son said to his father: “Father,
you gave me an education, and good man
ners. and everything that the world could do
forme; but, father, you never told me how
t" die. and now my -<iui i.-> going out in the I
darkness.”
<io home and erect a family* altar. You
iiiiiy break down in your prayer. But never
mind. God will take what you mean, whether
you express it intelligibly or not. Bring all
your lions* into the ark. Is there one son
"bom you have given up; Is he so dissipated
that you have stopped counselling and pray
mg'Dive him up? How dare you give him up'
Did G<l ever give thee up: Whilst thou hast a
single articulation of speech left, cease not to
pray for the return of that prodigal. He
ma v even now lx* standing on the beach at
Hong Kong or Madras, meditating a return
to his lathers house. Give him up ? Never
gi> e him up. Has God promise! to hear thv
prayer only to mock thee? It is not too late'.
In St. J aui s. London, there is a whispering
gallery. A voice uttered most feebly at one
side ot the gallery is heard distinctly at the
o; p. >site side, a great distance off. So, every
word of earni st prayer goes all around the
earth, and makes heaven a whispering- ’
gallery. Go into the ark—not to sit down,
but to stand in the door, and call until all ;
the family come in. Aged Noah, where is
Japhet? David, w here is Absalom: Hannah,
where is Samuel? Bring them in through
Christ the door. Would it not be pleasant to
-’[slid eternity with'our families? Gladder
than Christmas or Thanksgiving festival will
be the reunion, if we get all our family* into 1
the ark. Which of them can we spare out of
heaven?
I hi one of the late steamers there were a !
father and two daughters journeying. They
seemed extremely* poor. A benevolent gentle
man stepped up to the poor man to proffer
some form ot relief, and said: “You seem
to be very poor, sir. '* “Poor, sir,” replied the j
man, “if there’s a poorer man than
me a troubling tiie world, God pity
both of us!” "I will take one of
your children, and adopt it, if you
say so. 1 think it would be a great relief to
you." “A what?” said the poor man. “A
relief. “\\ ould it be a relief to have the
hands chopped off from the body, or the heart
torn from the breast? A relief, indeed! God
be good to us! What do you mean, sir?”
However many children xve may have, we
have none to give up. Which of our fami
lies can we afford to spare out of heaven?
Come, father! Come, mother! Come, son!
Come,daughter! Come, brother! Come,sister!
Only one step, and we are in. Christ, the door,
swings out to admit us; and it is not the
hoarseness of a stormy blast that you hear,
but the voice of a loving and patient God
that addresses you, saying: “Come thou and
all thy house into the ark.”
And there may the Lord shut us in.
ANTI-COERCION MEETINGS-
Meetings IIH<I in Various Placet to Exprext
Sympathy for Ireland.
An immense mass meeting was held in
the Academy ot Music, of Philadelphia,
Monday evening for the purpose of pro
testing against the proposed coercive
legislation by the government of Great
Britain. Fully 1,000 were present, and
a large number who were unable to gain
admission had an overflow meeting in
the streets. Besides Governor Beaver
there were present all living ex-governors
of the State and many prominent persons
of the State and city.
The regular meeting was called to
order by ex Attorney General Brewster,
and after several stirring speeches had
been made resolutions were adopted ex
pressing the sentiment of the meeting,
and the following was ordered telegraphed
to Messrs. Gladstone and Parnell:
“An immense anti-coercion meeting j
this evening. Five thousand people
present. Thousands unable to obtain
admission. The governor of Pennsyl
vania presided. Every living ex-gover
nor consenting to be present to express
his sympathy. No speaker Irish. All
Americans. Strong speeches were made
denouncing the bill and expressing
amazement that such a measure should ■
be proposed in the 19th century by a civ
ilized government.
•‘Resolutions expressing the sentiment
of our city of one million inhabitants,
and our State, of live million inhabitants, s
in favor of Irish home rule, were unan
imously and enthusiastically adopted.”
The cablegram was signed by Governor
Beaver.
AT BOSTON
on the same evening Faneuil hall was
packed by a thoroughly American audi
ence, the occasion being a meeting to
express condemnation of the Irish crimes
act. Governor Ames, Lieutenant Gov
ernor Brackett, Mayor O'Brien, Senator
Hoar, Revenue Collector Fitzgerald,
Mayor Russell, of Cambridge, John Boyle
O’Reilly, deputy collector, were among
those present. Governor Ames, Senator
Hoar, Mayor O’Brien, Rev. C. A. Barton,
John Boyle O’Reilly, Lieutenant Gover
nor Brackett, Rev.' A. A. Miner, Rev.
Father Teeling, of Newburyport; Johu
E. Fitzgerald, Rev. Father Connally, of
Worcester; ex-Mavor Donovan, of Low
ell; Father McKenuy, of Marlboro; and
W. E. Lord, of the Advertiser, were the
speakers. Telegrams were sent to Messrs.
Gladstone and Parnell, and over $l,lOO
collected for the Irish league.
AT DES MOINES
a large and enthusiastic mass convention,
representing the people of lowa, was
held to express sympathy with the people
of Ireland, and denounce the Balfour co
ercion bill. Governor Larrabee xvas pres
ident. and speeches were made by him.
Lieutenant Governor Hill, Secretary of
State Jackson. Auditor Lyon, Congress
man Conger, Judge Gwinn, several Pro
testant and Catholic clergymen and
others.
A HOTEL EIUE.
The Read house in Chattanooga was a
scene of the wildest confusion Monday
morning. About 4 o’clock the lire alarm
sounded. It soon became known that
the hotel xvas on tire- The flames were
burning high in the rear of the house and
above the kitchen, and, but for the effec
tiveness of the tire department, the build
ing would have been destroyed. The
guests rushed from the building half clad,
the ladies in night apparel, and the men
with an armful of clothes rushed from
the hotel, panic-stricken into the streets,
several serious accidents being barely a
voided from the jam of people trying to
escape from the burning building. The
loss was inconsiderate to the owners, as
the burned part would soon have been
torn away to make room for the improve
ment and arrangements soon to be made.
A TEXAS BATTLE.
A special from San Augustine, in East
Texas, near the Louisiana line, says a
terrible fight occurred Friday morning
ten miles below Hemphill, in Sabine
county, between Captain Scott and his
little company of state range:' on <>ue
side and old Willis Connor and hi- suns
on the other. Three of the Connor fam
ily and one rauger were instantly killed,
and Captain Scott and another of hi
men were badly, if not fatally, wounded.
One of the Connor boys escaped, but the
rangers are in hot- pursuit. The Connors
brought on the fight by tiring Lorn am
bush upon the rangers, who were hunt
-1 ing timber thieves. A doctor has been
; sent for by the raugers to attend tb.
wounded.
A COSTLY TOMB FOR A PARROT.
He Saved His Mistress fro*n Robbers
and Now Lies iu State.
All the parrots that history ban banded
down to us tints far have aeliieved fame
by their feilts of stump-speaking. In
no case have any of them made any stir
after death. A young niau found a par
rot in New York whose brave deeds for
u number of years and the amount of
splendor he fell into after his wings had
ceased to flap and he had squawked his
last squawk, entitle him to a place in
history. The bird came into this world
at the'top of a high baobab tree in the
island of Madagu car, and was one of
tlie good old Psittaeidie family. While
still very young and not possessed of
much more sense than the gilded youths
who lead dogs up and down Fifth avenue,
lie happened to hike his daily hop abroad
too near the coast. He fell into the
hands of pirates who lugged him off in
a bag, iu spite of his lusty screaming,
and took him aboard their ship, xvhere
he got no consolation beyond dry bread
and round Spanish oaths.
After being carried through a series
of adventures, about which he could
never after be induced to speak, he
finally brought up in Calcutta. There
he xvas bought by a wealthy American
woman who was traveling for pleasure.
From then until death claimed him he
was happy. He traveled with her all
through India, living iu bungalows, eat
ing curry, watching dervishes at their,
whirls anon discovering spoor and doing
all those w onderful things with outlandish
names that the writers of heavy English
books of adventure never tire of relat
ing. He was named Bill, not on account
of any special fitness of the name, but
because it happened to be lying around
loose. One night thieves broke into the
wealthy American woman’s bungalow,
and probably would have walked oflf
with all her portable riches after stab
bing her to death, but for the watchful
ness of Bill. Like the geese who saved
Rome Bill heard the marauders, and un
like them he swore roundly in Spanish,
and rent the air of Hindoostan with
loud cries of “Ghagrang! chagrang!”
which is pure Hindoostanee and means
“Help, help! We are beset by dogs of
robbers.” The thieves ran away, to the
great glory of Bill and satisfaction of
his mistress, and ever afterward Bill oc
cupied a warm, roomy corner in her
heart. After seeing the world thorough
ly he came home with her and settled
down in a mere mansion on Murray
Hill.
Six weeks ago Bill died. His mistress
sent him to a bird stuffier, in Broadxx ay.
He loaded Bill up with arsenic and
other things which defy decay, put in a
nice new yellow glass eye, with a bold,
black pupil and then the bird was ready
for the tomb. A manufacturing com
pany got tie job of making the tomb.
They had orders to spare no expense, so
they turned their 1 >est artists loose on a
big block of rosewood. On his left side,
his head resting on a pink satin cushion,
lay Bill at full length. His new glass
eye looked peaceful, and all his green
and yelloxv feathers shone bright xvith
post-mortem splendor. All around him,
the xx*alls of the polished solid rosexvood
casket wei*e quilted xvith hand-sewed
pink satin cushions. A thick piece of
clear plate glass, with beveled edges,
gaves people a good chance to gaze on
Bill's calm features. The carving of the
casket was rich and fine. It would have
taken one skilled artist a month to do it.
A tracery of vines and sprays of flowers
With every detail faithfully xvorked out,
covered the lid of the casket. The same
decoration xvas on each side. The cas
ket is six inches high and eighteen inches
long, and cost $2,000. From to-day
until he wears out Bill will repose in it
on a marble pedestal, xvliich his mistress
has caused to be placed in her parlor.—■

A party of young folks in Pleasant
Valley, Y T a,, went to the house of a newly
married pair to “bell” them, as tlie
custom is there. Axvakened by the jing
ling of many* bells, the bride and groom
arose and entered into the fun liearti ly.
To add to the noise, the bride and
another young woman ran out and began
to pull violently on the rope of the farm
bell hanging in a frame back of the
uouse. They jerked so hard that the
bell slipped from its place and fell, strik
ing the bride on the head and fracturing
aer skull.

MARK TWAIN AND PROF LOISETTK
The Famous H umorist Tell* How Profes
sor Loisette Taught Him to Im
prove His Memory.
From the New Yor k World.
The success which Professor Loisette’s Mem
ory School, No. 237 Fifth Ave., N. Y., is meet
ing does not occasion any surprise to those ac
quainted with its advantages, and the hearty
indorsement given by prominent men to th*
Professor’s methods of improving the memory
a e a guarantee that these advantages will
soon become known lar and wide. Professor
Loisette is doing a noble work for the metrop
olis. College professors generally and the best
known physicians of the country are In hearty
accord with Pio'essor Loisette. Writers, law
yers, mu-icians ana representatives of all
• classes, both professional and business men,
a e pupils in tne school or are learning by cor
respondence, and are quickly discovering what
they* hax*e never before understood, how re
tentive the memory maybe made. One rea
son is that he uses no machinery, localities
or other devices of artificial systems. Mark
Team has been a pupil of the Professor, and
this is what he says about h ; m: “Professor
Loisette did not create a memory for me; mo,
nothing of the kind. And yet he did for me what
amounted to the same thiny- he proved lo me
that I already had a memory, a thing which I
was not aware of till then. I had before been
able, like most people, to store up and loa*
things in the dark cellar of my memory, but ht
showed me howto light, up the cellar. It is the dif
ference, to change the figure, between having
money where you can’t < oliect it, and having it
in your pocket. The information cost me but
little, yet I value it at a prodigious figure.”
Spring Medicine
is a necessity with nearly every one. This 1* the
best time of year in which to purify the blood, to
restore the lost appetite, and to build up the entire
system, as the body is now peculiarly susceptible to
benefit from medicine. The peculiar medicinal
merit of and the wonderful cures by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Have made it the most popular medieine to take In
the spring. It cures scrofula, salt rheum and all
humors, biliousness, dyspepsia, headache, kidney
and liver complaints, catarrh, and all affections
caused or promoted by low state of the system or
impure blood. Don’t put It off, but tak* Hood’s Sar
saparilla now. It will do you good.
Builds Up the System
“I gladly attest the Deeuliar building-up power of
Hood’s Sarsaparilla. For some time I have been un.
able to attend to business, but finally at the request
of a friend I used part of a bottle of Hood’s Sarsa
parilla. which gave tone and strength to my system
and made me feel young as when a boy.”—Orax

Hob She Lost Her Maid.
Clara Belle, in eye of her notable let- j
ter>, savs:
Speaking of humbug, a Fifth avenue
Exile’s maid, a trim, pretty creature,
suddenly disappeared recently; and it
xvas a wonder, because the girl xvas well 1
paid iu proportion to her good looks—
for it is deliciously swell now to luive a
pretty body servant. She had not seem
ingly been dissatisfied xvith her work or
wages. Her employer feared that som#
sentimental harm had come to her, and
charitably went so far as to hire a private
detective to hunt her up. Where do
you think he found her ? She xvas an
advertising exhibit in a liair wash estab
lishment. There is a boom on in that
industry. Pheuominall v long-haired wo- ;
men are posed in the xvindous of store*
where hail tonics are on sale, and com
petition is hot. The comely maid had
luxuriant tresses, xvliich grew so heavily
and rapidly that she went periodically
to a hair dresser to have them cut short.
“How much wages do you get?" he
asked her.
“Twenty-four dollars a month,” she
replied.
“I can get you double that," he said,
“and nothing at all to do except to be
admired. Oh, don’t be alarmed—there’s
no harm in it. Messrs. Blank and Cos.,
tlie well-known makers of Cemliau
Glory, want to boom their stuff'. Y'ou
are just the girl they desire. Y’ou will
have your head shaved close. Then
they xvill slioxv you freely to their cus
tomers, telling them that von lost your
liair years ago bv fever, and had given
up all hope of regaining it; you liave
tried many preparations in vain; they
ave going to experiment on you. Your
hair groxvs fast and fine—it is on x*iexv
from day to day it becomes a marvel—
the fame of it spreads by word of mouth,
and by the time your head has regained
its usual beauty they have sold 1,000
extra bottles of Cemlian, and you have
received three mouths’ extra wages.
See?”
She saw; and that xvas how the Fifth
avenue belle lost her pretty maid.
Major Polk's Y’alliable Adjutant.
The Washington Post says:—“When
Major Polk (brother of the President of
that name arrived at his headquarters in
Mexico he knew nothing whatever of
military matters.” Said General Y'iele,
recently. He was ordered to take com
mand of a regiment of which I was adju
tant. Before doing so he got a friend to
write out all the orders lie would have to
give. When he appeared upon the
scene he called out to the orderly to send
the adjutant to him. ‘ Here are my
orders,’ said Polk, handing them over to
me. * Have them published! ’ They were
published accordingly.
“ The next day Major Polk was order
ed to form a squadron. He said to me.
‘My spur is off; I wish to put it on.
Give the order to put the squadron in
motion.’ I did so. ‘Continue to give
orders, sir!’ shouted the Major. The
next day he began to read uponmillitarv
tactics. He read the first page and took
a drink. Then he read the second page
and took another drink. Finally he
threw down the book and exclaimed :
“‘Adjutant Y'iele, I don’t knoxv an
infernal thing about it. My brother is
President of the United States. You
stick to me and tell me wliat to do and
I’ll see that you get quick promotion !’
“It is needless to say that I stuck to
the brother of the President.”
Omaha Husband—-Well, I told you
ray friend DeGrand xvas a xxonderful
man. Noxv what do you think of him ?
Omaha Wife-—He’s a fool.
“Fool! YYliy he is one of the most
famous scientists of the day.”
“He’s a born idiot.”
“How can you talk so?”
“He thought this precious little treas
ure was a boy and she’s most a month
old.” —Omaha World.
Coal Dealer: “Where’s John ?”
Driver: “He staid up to Mr. Brown’s. ”
Coal Dealer: “Why on earth did he
do that ? Doesn’t lie know we’re short
handed?”
Driver: “I supppose lie does, sir,
but he said he xvas xveighecl in xvith his
load, and he had an idea he belonged to
Mr. Broxvn.”
