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.”— .

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.’ ” Office over Star Clothing', Store.
