Congressman Billy' Mason of

“Arc you as hungry as a boy ?”
asked his wife.

anticipation of a whole meal on

The Mason family wero first at

of the house arrived, and soon the

Mr. Mason took a few raw oysters

Telegraph operators with a sense
of the ludicrous otten ItHci their
dull, everyday routine enlivened
by tho amusing messages handed
in by thoir customers.
An operator in a small western
town was sitting alone in his office
when an old lady entered who in*
formed him that she wished to Send
ft messago to her daughtor.
“How much will it cost,” she
asked.
“Fifty ccntc for ten words.”
“IIow much for five words?’,
“Tho same. Wo do not send
any messages for less than fifty
cents.”
“All I want to say is : ‘I will
como home tomorrow.* That will
be the same as if tl.oio were ten
words, ch Y*
“Yes raa’m."
“Well, I may as well have my
money’s worth,” she said reflective¬
ly. Then holding up ono hand she
counted tho words off on her fill'*
gers adding: “Johny—cut—a—
tooth —yes tend ay.”
“There,” sho added, “you send
that along to make us even,” and
with a comfortablo sense that she
had not been defrauded by tho
company sho went her way,
The operator was of loo sympas
thetie a nature to bo amused over
the distress of a young man, who
three minutes after the departure
of tho last trrin for the day, rush*,
cd up to the window and dashed
off the following messago to a town
sixty miles away, addressed to a
Miss Somcthing-or other :
•‘Have just minted the train.
Must postpone ceremony until to¬
morrow. Would walk if I could.
Try to bo calm.

Seven I5ase Lnudlords;.
Several members ot the two tho
atrical companies which arc play¬
ing in tho city tat around the fes¬
tive board last evening, says th«
Detroit Tribune, and, as usual on
such occasions, were telling stories
“I remember,’’ said one “an cx>
pevicnce we had when i was
n&embcr of a * n y company travel
ing through Michigan. Wc were
in hard luck when wo struck the
little town of B-, and figured on
having a fair house, but the results
diu net sustain our hopes. There
were obout a dozen people in the
iiousc ajtid'r.eycral of those god tired
and left before the performance
was concluded. Tho next, morn¬
ing tho landlord struck our mana¬
ger for our board bill.
“1 havent a cent,” said the man
ager.,-.
“Where do you go from hero ?”
“To X-.”
“All right. I’ll go along and at¬
tach the box office.”
“So the landlord accompanied us
,
At X-wc had a bad house and
there was nothing to attach., The
<j«/*ond landlord asked the rr.ana

“I haven't a ov,.il, said the mara
S cr '
“Where do you go to from horc ?
“To N-•”
i
“I’ll go with you an J attach the
box office.”
Accordingly tho second landlord
made one of our f*arly. At N —■ t
the deceits were about the fame and
and wo picked up r. third landlord.
Pretty soon we had seven land*
lords in the company. This sort
of thing was getting monotonous.
The manager called tho stago mau
ager aside. i s
“Wo might Ins frell use thoso tor*,
lows,” ho said.
“How?” * •
“Put them in tho chorus, Go
down in u tlio parlor nnd try thoir
voices. >» •
, . i, ,,
,
Tho stago mahager departed and
tn a short time returned, looking
much crestfallen.
“Well?” i »■ . .*
Tho stago manager gave a gbsi
turo of despair. i. !
“I havo tried thoir voices, and
they are all bassos, For hoavon’s
sake, the next landlord you pick
up, got a tenor.”
