• Troasurod Joko.
San Francisco is still repeating
and laughing ever the bonmots
Bishop Potter let drop on the oc
casion of his visit to that city -two
years ago to attend the Episcopal
toa rent ion.
At that time the citizens were
very much astir because the famous
•astern bishop jras to be a visitor
within their gates, and they vied
with ode another to honor their
guest. The bishop was kept busy
declining the invitations that be had
not time to accept. Bui one invita
tion that he did avail himself of
was to occupy the magnificent resi
dence of William Crocker, one of the
millionaire families of which Mrs.
Francis Burton Harrison and Mrs.
Alexander - are eastern representa
tives.
The house is a showy one, situat
ed upon Nob hill, where the early
California millionaires built their
hemes, so it is a “show place.”. It
cable to have a double interest when
it was occupied by the bishop. One
day a San Franciscan was snowing
the group of residences to a friend
who was visiting in the city. As
they approached the “Will Crocker”
home he sprang the treasured joke
which he had been saving for tha
right moment. “This,” said he,
with a flourish, “is Mr. Crocker’s
Pottery.”
He did not recognize the gentle
man who was at that moment de
scending the steps. It was the bish
op, who could not ielp overhearing
and who had a twinkle in his eye.
“I beg pardon for correcting yen,”
he said, ‘*ut you are mistaken. This
is Bisho'p Potter’s Crockery.”— .

Time to Learn.
One of the latest stories of the
straDgc reasoning of negroes comes
from J. H. Stoddart, the veteran
actor, and is of an incident he wit
nessed in Louisiana on a tour
through that part of the country.
“I had an afternoon lay off in
this Louisiana town,” said the ac
tor, “and with nothing to do roam
ed about the place. Fnially I got
to the courthouse and went-in. A
negro trial was on, and a typical old
darky was one of the witnesses. He
was fixing the time of the occur
rence of the trouble and said it was
half past 3 in the afternoon.'
“ Tlow do you know it was half
oast 3F demanded the lawyer for
the other side.
“‘Why, I—I knowed it was half
put 3 by my watch. I knowed it,'
etammered the darky.
‘“Can you tell time?’ demanded
the lawyer.
“ ‘Sure, I can tell time,’ answered
the witness.
“ ‘What time is it now V demand
ed the lawyer, pointing to the clock.
“The darky studied the clock tot
a minute; .then he said he did not
know what time it was.
‘“But I thought you could tell
time,’ said the lawyer, .with anger.
“‘Well, I can tell time, boss, by
my watch/ said the darky, ‘but I
tan’t tell no time by no dock.’ ”

Ono Thing Clark Forgot.
A call for a minister was about
to be issued in Champ Clark’s home
town in Missouri, says the Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
World. It was made, and when the
minister arrived the church commit
tee found the minister and Repre
sentative Clark were old school
mates. They went to him and aak- j
ed him about the new minister.
“He’s a good man/* said Mr.
Clark. “He will infuse new life (
into the church and is one of the
most sociable fellows I ever met.
He is eloquent, tells a good etory
of the right kind and will he quite
an addition to our- town.”
The committee started to leave,
feeling very good over having made
such an cxcelMnt selection, jrhen
Clark called them back, saying:
“Oh, I forgot to tell you that Dr.
Blank is fierce when ho gets drunk.
There’s no handling him when he
drinks.”
