The Quail Eater’s Had Day.
New York Suu.
Hure lie is, said (tube Case, and
ho comes up groggy for the fitteenti
round.
Mr, Waloolt, why is trying to eat
a brace of quail every day for thirty
daya, was overdue by io minutes
yesterday alteruoon, and when he
was at length spied approaching
Case's Hotel his steps were un
steady and his face dashed. He
was takeu into a back room by his
backer, Mr. Mofialt, and then a
bottle or soda was carried in. The
tefths of tlie wager require that the
two birds shall bo eaten botwen 4
and 5 o'clock. At a quarter past
four the eater emerged from the in
ner apartment) but ha was still vry
tthtteTUit, as to Ills l*g, though the
rest of liis person was extremely
stiff and diguified* Mr Moffatt eyed
him withuuooncealedconcern.
Charley, he said to a young ne
gro, walk him down the road. The
smoke in hero is too much for him.
What is everybody smiling at?
Nobody explained the smile, and
there was a rush out to the veranda
to soe the eater walk off, atteuded
by Charley. Then there was a gen
eral pulling out of watches.
What is the Matter wi'h your
man? was asked of Mr Moffatt,
lie has been taking a little —too
much- -far his stomach's Sake, re
plied the backer, impressively; but
he will be all right. Other* did
not thick so, and several bets wero
hastily made at two to one against
him. He returned from the walk
at halt past four, and throe miuutcs
later was seated at the tsble, in the
midst of the staring and crowding
spectator*, threw his hat aside aud
eased his close-fitting coat by tiu
buttiming it.
You've got twenty-seven minute*
saui Mr Moffatt, and that's plenty,
iijyou take i cool.
Me Wnlcott cut off the leg of a
quail and lifted it to his mouth.
His nose perceptibly wrlhWlod and
ho sniffed as though some hing
smelt badly.
It's the smoke said one.
It's the qnail, said another.
Keep a still stomach, wa* a
rli nd‘a advice
The first leg wns four minutes in
bping gwoil to the bone. It look
ed ns though tho iimlerUking wns
nbout to fail ju*t befor* being half
accomplished But tho oth*r went
foster, and the meat ef the whole
bird wus gone at the end of twelve
minutes. Mr Walcott g-ied for a
weary instant at the other bird, and
then hia rye* tttrlled with an appa
rently inspiring etfret on the bate
bones of tbe first fowl, Tha second
became a skeleton in (our minutes
and a half. Mr Walcott ackowl.
edged (he applause with a very pre
cise and polite bow. All o( th
meal except the ouail had remained
untasted. Ho now took a single
spoonful each of corn and peas, wip
ed his mouth with the napkiu, and
pushed back from tho table.
Charley, he called. 110, Chaflby!
Let's take nnotllef walk.
The negro responded with alacri
ty( and leaping on his arm, the quail
eater went out for exercise and air.
A SWart Dog-
Kxeryliody in Midway knows old
"Ned,” the children's dog. He is
one of the smartest dogs that we have
ever seen. He formerly belonged to
the late Mrs. Margaret Buford, but as
there were no children at her house he
came to town add took up his abode
at the house of Mr. S. N. Rogers.
He goes to school with the children
every morning and remains there all
day. When they go out to play he
goes too, anp is quite expert itl catch
ing a ball—indeed In a game
he takes the place of a child. When
the bell is rung he is first to run into
the school-house, and when the class
es are called up to recite he takes his
place in line at the foot. After the
child next above him has recited he
answers the next question by an intel
ligent bark and bow of the head.
Should a question be missed by the
child at the foot of the class and pass
ed to the next by the teacher, Ned
will answer in his peculiar way. Spell
ing seems to t>e hi* favorite branch of
study, his answers being tfkceedifigfy
quick and vigorous. Although he
turns the children doWrt after his fash
ion, he Bever goes above them. He
will fight for any of the pupils as well
as teachers, and could not be induced
to stay where there there are no chil
dren.

Just His Way.
Wall Street News.
I see, she observed, as she looked
up from her paper, ‘ that another wo
man who was pcrfect'y sane all the
time has just been roleas-d from a
lunatic asylum dftef a detention of
three years.”
Yes, briefly replied the husband.
She was incarcerated by her hus
band.
Ye.
Who wanted her out of the wdj 1 ,
that he might rtiatry another woman.
Yes.
In case you desired to dispose of
ma, you would piobably have me
shut up in a lunatic asylum ?
No, nia’m ; I should poison you ;
that’s the cheapef and better way.
Asa man of business, and as an ad
vocate of financial economy, i have
thought this matter over time and a
gain, and I should certainly prefer to
spend fifteen cents for arsenic to pay
ing out ten or fifteen dollars per week
for goodness knows h o w long.
She looked at him a long time with
a whole iceberg in each eye, and
then turned to her paper with the re
mark :
Just like your stingy way; you

What His Uncle Said.
Summerbreeze’s boy did’t learn his
alphabet very easily, and always
brought up all standing when he got
to “O.” The schuolmarm tried to
make him remember it, hut to no pur
pose. Finally an idea struck her.
She said t
Johhny, you were out in the coun
try during vaentioh, I believe ?
Yessum. *
There were lots of cattle there,
were there not ?
Yonr uncle had some cattle, too (
dill he hot?
Yessum.
Well, now, did he not say tohiscat
tle when he wanted them to go, gee?
YrSSUtOI
Now do you think you can remem
ber the letter?
Yessum.
The next day Johnny again stum
bled on "G”, and the tcachsr, to re
fresh his memory, said t
Well, Johnny, what did your uncle
say to his cattle ?
Johnny hesitated a moment, and
then yelled out:
Haw, Diamond, d—n ye !
The teacher thought Johnny had
suddenly learned the whole alphabet.
A Pound of Ditto.
An honest old man, rather ignorant
on the improved method of abbrevia
tion, on looking over his grocer’s bill
occasionally f jund charges like the
following : To i lb. Ua t j i lb. ditto.
Wife, said he, this 'tre’s a putty
business. I should like to know What
you have done with 10 much of this
ditto.
Ditto, ditto, replied the old lady,
never had a pound of ditto in tbe
houje in all my lite !
So bßck went the honest old squire
in high dudgeon that he should have
been charged with things he hap nev
er received.
Mr B, said lie, I shan't stand this,
my wife says she hasn’t had a pound
of this durned ditto in the 1 ouse in
her life !
The merchants therheupon explain
ed the meaning of the term, and the
squire went home satisfied' His wife
inquired if he had found the meaning
of the ditto,
Yes, said he, it means that lam
an old fool and you're ditto.
President Bonney, in an annual ad
dress to the Illinois State Bar Associ
ation, insisted that the jury system
had become vitiated by anomalies
and absurdiiies, which have become
incorporated wi;h that method of ad
judicating. He pronounced emphat
ically against making juries the judges
of law in criminal cases.
