ODD BOWERY SLANG.
Tough but Graphic Dialect of the East
Side of Gotham.
Slang, like hot air, rises. It starts
in the speech of the least educated
to become incorporated into the
daily talk of the best informed. It
is true that the best informed use
slang apologetically and with men
tal quotation marks, but neverthe
less they use it. Slang is the out
come of bright minds not well stored
with work. Hence it is graphic.
East of the Bowery they do not
say “beggar.” ,The# say, “a man
with his hand ouT” When Stephen
Brodie wished to say that' a certain
popular novelist was not of very
heavy mental caliber, he said that
“if that gent fell on a wet sponge
he wouldn’t squeeze it dry.”
In the lower walks of life a man
does not get angry; he “gets red
headed. ” He does not expose mon
ey; he “flashes a wad,” from which
he “skims” the “long green.” If he
happens to be well to do, he has a
“thick wad, ” so hard that “you
couldn’t knock a dent in it with an
ax.” No man every struck another
east <~f the Bowery; he just care
lessly “threw ’em into him,” the
“’em” being two hard fists.
Aman in reduced circumstances!
is, in slang parlance, “on the ‘
swine.” If his circumstances are a
little more reduced, he is “on the
swine train.'” And when he “is on
the caboose of the swine train” his
condition is most deplorable. No
man ever died east of the Bowery; ■
he “did a croak.” And, if he hap
pened to die a violent death, be
shot, “he did a gun croak.”
In this locality men are not stab
bed; they are just "cut.” “Lob
ster,” a most favorite expression of
contempt, originated on the race
track, where it was used to desig
nate a slow horse. And as there is
no quality of mankind which the
native New Yorker holds in more
reverence than rapidity, both phys
ical and mental, it naturally follow
ed that a man mentally inactive be
came a “lobster.”
When a person is in hard luck, he
is “up against it,” and if the luck
grows worse he is “up against it for
fair.” If a person goes to another
person’s house and so behaves that
discredit is brought upon the house,
he “puts the whole drive on the
hog,” which is a variation of “on
the swine” and easily traceable to
tramp slang.
If one person rushes at another
like “a bull at a gate,” the other
person attempts to “beat in lhe roof
of his head, ” which might well dis
courage the oncomer.
East of the Bowery drinks, “rats”
and fists are always “thrown in.”
If the citizen of this district should
unwisely “throw in” too much “red
liquor,” the next morning his “ears
would be a foot out,” meaning that
his head would be long. In this dis
trict the youths and maidens do not
court; they simply “win” each oth
er. Defeat is impossible, it would ap
pear.
No one east of the Bowery at
tempts to do anything. He or she
“makes a stagger at it.” Beer is
known as “hops,” cigarettes as
“pipes.” If a girl has a pretty fig
ure, she is “dead swell built,” and
every man is a “guy.” If he is in
telligent, he is “a wise guy;” if he
isn’t, he is a “lobster guy.” If he is
tall, he is a “high guy,” and if he
is strong he is a “husky guy.”
Finally comes the all pervading
expression “get next,” the great
shibboleth of the east side. Its in
habitants “get next” to pretty much
everything they can.—New York
Mail and Express.
Doga of Egypt.
Commenting on the statement of
a naturalist that the dogs of Egypt
never barked. Ed Little said: “I
cannot say rrom my own Knowledge
that the dogs of Egypt do bark. I
do not remember that I ever heard
one of them give tongue. In fact,
the only Egyptian dog of which I
have any recollection was a very
scrubby cur that took up his-unin
vited residence at the consulates.
One morning on reaching the office
I found this dog contentedly resting
near my desk. I called the servants
and had them put him out. On the
next morning and the next I found
that dog in the same place. Every
time he was put out he went with a
cheerful wag of his tail, as much as
to say, ‘You will like me better
when you know me more, ’ and by*
and by I became interested in his
persistency. At last I told the serv
ants to allow him to repaain, and as
long as I staid in Cairo that cur
was a part of the American consu
late. No, I don’t think he ever saw
the pyramids. ” —Kansas City Jour
nal.
The Same Thing.
A Chinese philosopher has been !
found in the kitchen of one of our
western college presidents who
makes this distinction between the
orient and the Occident: "In China
j the men boss the women; in Amer

1 I ‘boss’ President Bianki” inquired
Mme. President. "No, you no boss
him,” rejoined the astute China
man, “but he do what you say I”

REMINISCENCE OF LINCOLN.
i
How Governor Pratt Secured His Son’s
Release From Fort Monroe.
Former Congressman Henry G.
Worthington of Nevada tells the
following story of President Lin
coln:
“Former Governor Thomas G.
Pratt of Maryland was the first Whig
governor ever elected by the people
of that state. During the war he
was arrested by order of Secretary
Stanton and imprisoned at Fort
Monroe.
“During Pratt’s confinement at
Fort Monroe Lincoln and Secretary
Seward paid a visit to the fort on
important business one day. While
there Seward saw Pratt. They had
served in the United States senate
together. There was a feeling of
personal friendship between them,
and Seward interceded to have him
released.
“Just at the close of the war
Pratt’s only son was wounded and
captured and held prisoner at Fort
Monroe. Pratt applied to Stanton
and Mr. Dana, his assistant, for the
release of his son. It was very
promptly and without ceremony re
fused by both.
“Governor Pratt then appealed to
me for an introduction to President
Lincoln. I complied with the re
quest and went with him to the
White House and introduced him to
Lincoln. Lincoln grasped his hand
cordially and expressed great de
light in meeting him, as he was the
first Whig governor elected in Mary
land. You know Lincoln was orig
inally a Whig and a strong partisan.
“‘What can I do for you?’ the
president asked.
“Pratt told him about the confine
ment of his wounded son and ap
pealed to the president for his re
lease.
“The president became very re
flective, and after a few moments of
silence and thought he asked Pratt
if he would exercise proper control
over the boy and try to effect a
change in his mind and conduct.
“Pratt gave him every assurance,
and after another long silence the
ivrpflident said •

told suffering. By taking Hood’s

“ ‘Pratt, do you know wnat i was
thinking about?’
“Pratt did not.
“‘I was thinking how I could
comply with your request and re
lease this boy without setting a dan
gerous precedent or being a detri
ment to the public service. lam
glad that it is in my power to do
you this favor, but I shall hold you
' responsible for the return of your
' son when called for, 'you becoming
bail for his good conduct. ’
“Upon which Mr. Lincoln wrote
an order to the officer in command
at Fort Monroe to deliver to Gov
ernor Pratt his son, Thomas Pratt,
to be returned to the president when
called for. He handed the card to
Governor Pratt with the remark:
“ ‘Governor, teach your son to sin
no more.’
“Governor Pratt was very much
affected, and as he arose to bid the
president goodby he said:
“ ‘Would to God, Mr. President,
that the southern people might see
I and know you as I have seen and
known you today.’
“As we left the White House tears
gushed into the eyes of Governor
Pratt. Trembling with emotion, he
grasped hold of my arm to steady
himself and keep from falling.
“This was the most interesting
and affecting incident of all my re
lations with the dead president.
“Yes, I remember well the first
time I met Lincoln. It was during
the war that 1 was sent to wasnmg
ton as the first representative from
the new state of Nevada. When I
called to pay my respects at ths
White House, the president cor
dially thrust out one hand and, plac
ing the other on my shoulder in a
friendly way, said:
“ Tam glad to meet the represent
ative from Nevada, and I am glad
that we have such a state as Nevada
just now, a state that is aiding us so
much in paying off the boys who
are protecting our flag and country.’
“At that time silver was worth
more than at the present”

I A Queer Gravestone.
Henry Jacobs of Lincoln, Kan.,
has erected a curious monument
over the grave of his son, who was
of a roving disposition. He had a
etone cut in the shape of an old fash
ioned traveling satchel. On the plate
in the center of each side is the
name, “J. 8. Jacobs.” Just above
the name is this inscription: “Here
Is Where He Stopped Last.” Un
derneath the name are the date of
. death and his age. The stone is
i white marble, and the base is a big
bowlder which the father hauled
from his farm and rolled on the
! grave. When questioned as to why
| he chose such a unique design, the
old man said: “Waal, Jim, he were
a sort of a rovin feller, and I allow
ed that this design would ’bout suit
him. He never stopped very long
before in any one place, but the last
time I see him he were at the grave
yard, and I jes’ concluded that he
might stay thar a long while. So I
had a sign printed on ther stone
sayin whar he was last seen and
whar he ought to be now. ” —New

and Rations to the Front Hared the

P. E. Butleb, of pack train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on July
23, says: “We all had diarrhea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed
we had no time to see a doctor, for it
was a case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks to
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, I sin
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect savior of
our army, for if the packers had been un
able to work there would have been no
way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in a supply of
this medicine for our pack train before
we left Tampa, and I know in four cases
it absolutely saved life.”

A well known American newspa

one of the croupiers at the roulette
table at Monte Carlo recently, and,
being a choleric gentleman and one
who cannot bear contradiction, Kt
his temper and his head, attackedJthe.
said Croupier aad knocked him d<i'wn.
He was immediately seized byyJaffl
clals, rather roughly handled, hus
tled about and expelled from the
rooms; furthermore, his card of ad
mission was withdrawn, and he was
informed that he would not be again
allowed to enter the Casino. He re
tired to his hotel and indited a short
note to the management, which was
the very opposite of an apology, in
forming them that unless his card
was returned, with an apology,
within 12 hours he would, to use his
own expression, “dynamite their
Casino.” Such is the respect which
the Casino authorities have for the
press that the proprietor’s card, to
gether with an ample apology, was
returned before 10 o’clock the fol
lowing morning.—New York Post.

THE ART OF CAKE WALKING.
Good Walkers Born, Not Made lmpo
rtance of Partner and Clothes.
A good cake walker is born, Just
' like any other artist. A man can
' learn to cut up antics, go through
1 funny movements and win applause
1 from an audience that wants to be
1 amused, but unless he is endowed
' by nature all these qualities will not
make him an artist.
1 If a fellow wants to be a cake
: walker, being first equipped by na
ture, he should get his eagle eye out
1 for a lady. It makes all the differ
ence in the world what kind of a
1 partner you have. See that she’"
1 good looking, has fair skin and huir
not too kin£y. The wavy haired
' maiden is we most attractive and
' the most precious too. Let her dem
' onfitrate to you that she can do any
' thing on two feet, from the pasmala
1 to the minuet, though I don’t mean
to say that the pasmala is allowed
1 in the refined cake walk. It is not.
1 It is too sporty, and we always bar
it. But all these little things lend
grace and experience to the walker,
and the more of them she knows the
better.
Rehearse frequently with your
, partner. Show her how to smile
when your-fiiws begin to crack and
; agree on the best way to salute each
, other. Watch the audience on this
point. See which poses they applaud
most and then play the favorites for
' all they’re worth.
The various twists and turns in
the cake walk are not parts of any
regular dances. They are ingenious
contrivances of our own. When a
couple come on and do their little
turn, they go through what we call
a solo. Then we have the chorus
■ walk, the Individual’s specialty, the
hoi polloi chorus, or the one where
all hands mix in a general scramble
for exhibition honors, and the gen
teel gyration of geniuses or the cho-
( rus of all stare. I usually lead and
. act as manager of the entertaln
i ment.
■ I think the best dress for a man
cake walker is the swallowtail or the
; Prince Albert. Sometimes the over
' coat is worn with good effect, and a
I cane gives a fellow an opportunity
t to find a place for his hands and adds
t grace and dignity to his bearing. A
> silk tile is the proper caper, especial
- ly on a well formed man. It makes
' you look nice and shiny, shows off
j your style and gives you a chance to
f get in some fine salutations, bows
• and courtesies with your lady. I al
’ ways use it. It is indispensable to a
i first class walker’s outfit. Patent
I leathers are the best for the feet,
j and the more diamonds you have
j the greater your chance to make a
killing. Evening costume is the
j proper thing for ladies.
) A cake walker makes from >0 to
, sls a performance. I get the biggest
divvy for managing the affairs. If
the business does not become slack,
it’s the best thing in sight for a
graceful walker. St. Louis has the
best colored dancers in the world,
, the cream of the profession.
Contests are decided on these
! points: Keeping step, making
straight turns, refined fa-
j cial expressions, well matched oou
ples and originahptevements. March
. music is the best, unless for solo
work.

Eczema!
The Only Cure.
Eczema is more than a skin disease,
and no skin remedies can cure it. The
doctors are unable to effect a cure, and
their mineral mixtures are damaging
to the most powerful constitution. The
whole trouble is in the blood, and
Swift’s Specific is the only remedy
which can reach such deep-seated blood
diseases.
Eczema broke out on my daughter, and con
tinued to spread until
her head was entirely

by several good doctors, BB ggr
but gr»w worse, and the fIHT , jST
, dreadful disease spread IL
to her face. She was
taken to two celebrated '4ft.

eelveil no benefit. Many
patent medicines were taken, but without re
sult, up til We decided to try 8. S. 8., and by the
time the first bottle was finished, her head be

Saved From Death.
LIFE WAS EBBING AWAY WHILE IN THE
MOUHTAIHS.
A Woman was Rescued when in a Perilous Plight.
The Novel Method Used to Save Her.
From the Frees, Ottumwa, lowa.
Miss Lol* Noble, of 416 East Maine Street,
Ottumwa, lowa, daughter of Mr. E. M.
Noble, the shirt manufacturer, has accom
plished a work which will not only benefit
her, but undoubtedly be of service to many
others. It was a praiseworthy undertak-1
ing; one which she may feel proud of and
amply repaid for her indefatigable efforts.
A reporter of the Press hearing of her suc
cessful achievement sought an interview with
her.
Miss Noble seemed cheerful, hopeful and
in the best of health. Apparently she had
not suffered any ill effects from her efforts
which were reported to have done much
good.
About two years ago she accompanied her
parents to the west, and resided among the
mountains for several months. This was
done in the hopes that her health might be
improved, as she was suffering front anantia.
Instead of the change of climate benefiting
her, she rapidly became worse and her parents
hastily returned east with her.
Reputable physicians were summoned and
exercised their skill, but it wins of no avail.
Her condition became worse and her face
assumed a ghost-like appearance. She was
wasting away for want of blood, and what
little she did have, was watery and in a de
praved state. Any slight exertion caused
excessive fatigue, and palpitation of the
heart. She had no appetite and the daintiest
viands did not tempt her. Iler condition
was deplorable ana death seemed nigh.
Many of her friends thought she was going
into consumption.
Finally some friends advised her to try
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People,
prepared by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine

Company, Schenectady, N. Y., as they con
tained in a condensed form all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
They had learned of cases similar to here
which’had been cured. The pills, they said,
i were inexpensive, only costing 50 cents a box
i or six boxes for £2.50, and eould be had at
any druggist’s.
I Miss Noble was reluctant to try them, for
it seemed as if all possible remedies had been
tried and the expense had been considerable,
without being benefited. Iler friends were
so enthusiastic regarding the good qualities
of the pills, that she finally decided to try a
box. and purchased one from E. M. B. Scott’s
drug store.
A decided improvement -was noticeable
i after the pills had been taken and she pur
: chased some more. The change in her con
dition was so great that after taking four
; boxes of the remedy, she considered herself
i well, and stopped taking the medicine. But
her severe sickness could not be cured so
I soon and she was obliged to commence taking
. the pills again. After using a few more
■ boxes, all traces of her fearful disease had
> j disappeared. To-day, she is the picture of
t i health, her complexion being that of an
- j ideally healthy young lady, and she is as
1 ' active as in her younger days.
:! Her father was so much impressed with
t the marvelous improvement wrought in the
i health of his daughter through the merits of
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, that he too is using
I them and is rapidly regaining his failing
I health.
r j Several have heard of Miss Noble’s case
, | and experience with these wonderful pills
51 and are using them with satisfactory results.
