Yea, air; walked right off without Baying a word, and never thought of the matter again until half way home." “I see.” “Wonder what thay’ll think?” “Why,” replied the lawyer, as he drew a letter from his pocket, “they have al ready forwarded me a requests to sue and collect. The bill is $9.75, and rny fees are |1.25. Please call at the office at once and save expense!”- A'rw Preet. Couldn't Fool Her. As Mr. Krewskiu waa going home the other day nt noon, he saw the wagon of a traveling photographer. “I will atop and have a few tintypes taken, just for fun,” he mentally re marked, entering the peripatetic estab lishment. “There,” said the photographer, show ing him n proof, “I think that is a pretty good likemr-w.” Krewakin looked at it with a puzzled expression, ami finally said: “l guess it'll do.” When he got homo he showed the tintype to his wife, and jokingly told her it wns a picture of the “Wild Man from Borneo,” down in the dime museum. ‘•You can’t fool me," said his wife. I examining the picture critically. “I've seen the wild man from Borneo, and he i ia not half so homely and frightful look | ing as this,” Hom n n< o of < 'll under Itn in Chowder. t hunder Hum Chowder, the Reverend i Marinalnde of Ddwwullagalhi, when a young prince, was enamored ot a beauti i ful girl, the daughter of a merchant. 1 lie | awned his dress suit, and for three ; days fed the object of his love with ice ; cream and cannpelu. At the end of this j short siege, having persuaded her that his facilities were uncqualed for continu ing to supply her with unlimited qminti I ties of caramels and leu eream for an in definite period, she yielded and agreed to depart with bin. to the wilderness. That night, while the prince wns loiter- I jug under her window with a bidder, her father appeared and kicked him clear over i the top of a grove of banyan trees, and 1 when he came down a bull dog as big as a yearling calf, was waiting for him, and sat down with him to a plain butaub ntantiid luncheon, at which, however, the prince ate nothing. The next morning, on his way to the hospital, the beautiful girl met him and said, reproachfully: n “Last night you were to fly with me.” ” “Ah, yes,” replied Chtinder Ram Chowder, “but last night your father was too fly for me,” He then entered the convent of the ITwida Null Cluing, who took upon them selves vows of celibacy and wore sheet iron trousers; nor did he again see hia charmer until five years afterward, when he met her at the funeral of her third husband, the other two having been di vorced. —Burdette, in Brooklyn Kagle. "My Lord, the Juke." The late Charles Kean was once fulfill ing an engagement at one of the smaller country theatres, the “stock” of which did not contain many future Henry Irvings— in short, tire corps dramatique was decidedly mediocre. At the rehersal the eminent tragedian was much shocked when one of the actors, who had to assume a very minor charaeb-r in the piece, announced to him, *‘My lord, thedook!” “My good man," said Mr. Kean, “for heaven's sake be careful not to nay that at night; the correct word is duke duke,” The humble Thespian announced that It would be “all right" at night. The scene WHS gone through again, when the actor, who was not good at pro nunciation, this time announced, “My lord, the juke!” This was too much for Kean’s irritable temperament. There was a storm on that i stage. The delinquent was banded over to the care of a more intelligent member of tlui <a»mpany, to be well drilled for ! the evening. The night came, the luckless utility man was in a state of excessive nervous ness, ami had to bo almost pushed on the utagii, When be got before the greet man, the small modicum of self nosses slon he had left entirely deserted him, and he hastily blurted out, “My lord, the dock duke—juke!" Tableau. The Lost Mollar Hutton. “My dear," raid Mr, Hpoopendyke, feeling up the chimney, “have you seen my gold collar button?’ “I saw It the day you bought it," an ' «were<i Mrs. Bpoopendyke, cheerily, i “and I thought it very pretty. Why do you ask?” “ ’Cause I’ve lost the meanly thing," returned Mr. Hpoopendyke, running the broom liandle up into the cornice, and shaking it as if it were a carpet. “You don’t suppose it is up there, do you?’’ inquiiwl Mrs. Hpoopendyke, I “Where did you leave it?” “Left it in my shirt. Where do you ‘ suppose I'd Leave it—in the hash?” and Mr. Hpoommdyke tossed over the things in hi. wife’s writing desk, and Iwkcd out of the window after it, “Where did you leave your uhirt?” ; asked Mrs. Hpoopendyke. “Where did I leave rny shirt? Where ido you suppose I left it? Where does a iM/i generally leave hia shirt, Mrs. Hpoop endyke? Think I left it in the ferry-boat? Got an idea that I left it at prayer meet ‘ ing, haven’t you? Well, I didn’t. I left I it off, Mr». Hpoopendyke; that’s where I left it. I left it off I Hear me!” and Mr. Sprxpendyke pulled the clothes out of the winr chest that hadn’t been unlocked I fora month. “Where is the shirt now?” persisted I Mrs. Hpoopendyke. “Where do you suppose it is? Where I du yen imagine H M I'll tert yen a here It U, Mrs Hpoopendyke, fts gone V : Bridgeport, an a wltnes* in a Isnd swM Idsa’ Ask a man where hi* shirt is? Yon know I hnven’t I'ocn out of this bwm ' *ince I cams home last night, snd took it i off," and Mrs Hpoopendyke sailed down vtairt, and raked the fire out of the kitchen range, hut didn’t find the button “Maybvyou lost It on the way home,” suggested Sirs. Hpoopendyke, saherhua band came un, hot and angry, snd began to pnll a stuffeu canarv to puces, tn toe if the button had got Inside. “Oh, you; very likely. I stood up against a tree, and lost it. Then I hid behind u fence to I wouldn’t see it. That’s the way it was. If I only had your head, Mrs. Hpoopendyke, I’d turn loose ns a razor shop. I don’t know any thing sharper than you are!” mid Mr. Hpoopendyke clutched a handful of dust ou the top of the wardrobe. “It must have fallen out,” mused Mrs. Hpoopendyke. “Oh, it must, ch! It must have fallen out. Well, I declare, I never thought of that. My impression was that it took n buggy and drove out, or a balloou and hoisted out.” And Mr. Hpoopendyke crawled behind the bureau aud com menced tearing up the carpet. “And if it fell out, it must b? some where near where he left hit shirt. Now, he always throws his shirt on the lounge, and the button must be under that." A moment's search soon established the infallibility of Mrs. Hpoopendyke’. logic. “Oh, yes. Found it, didn't you?” panted Mr. Hpoopendyke, os ho bumped his head against the bureau, and Anally climbed to a perpendicular. “Perhaps you will flx my shirts so they won’t fall out any more; and maybe you’ll have sense enough to mend that lounge, now that it has made Bi much trouble. If you only tend to the house as I do to my business, there’d nflver bo any difficulty about losing a collar button.” “It wasn't my fault—" commenced Mrs. Hpoopendyke. “Wasn't, eh? Have you found that coal bill you’ve been lookvig for since March?" “Yog.” “Have, eh! Now, where did you put it? Where did you find it?” “In your overcoat pocket."— Stanley Huntley. Streer Scenes In Naples. The street scenes in Naples are a study in themselves, mid would entertain a traveler for 'lays even if he never en tered a building. The curious garbs of the 0: elesiasl ies, who seem to forms large proportion of the inhabitants, the grotesque appearance of the street ven ders, with their wares piled up above their heads, and hanging to nil parts of | tlioir bodies, the brilliant drosses of the middle-class women, mid the fantastic , costumes of the beggars, who are pic turesque in their verv nakedness,give va i riety to the scene. The cat’s im at man, with his viands strung on n long pole, from which he detochoa a. piece and curves it witli his knife for each of his I lour footed clients, is n most extraordi nary sight. The public scribe, protected from the rays of the sun by un umbrella, as ho sits at a table inditing a love letter, perhaps, sos a l Neapolitan damsel ns beautiful us she kdlliterate, is useful us well m pic turesque. Another remarkable person age w the cigar scavenger, who nt night goes about with his lantern hunting for old Stumps, which he Bells to manufac turers to be converted into the Allings for frosh cigars. To these may be added the zampognari or and a host of other curious character, ranging any where from a cardinal, attired in crimson and riding in a gilded coach, to a baby, bound up, after the manner of Neapolitan babies, in the straightest of swaudling clothes, and looking more like a roll of linen just come from a draper’s shop than a human being. The advent of the zampognari in Na ples always heralds the approach of one of the more important Church festivals. They come from their distant homes in the mountains of the Abruzzi to Naples and the surrounding towns to cele brate the Immaculate Conception and the advent of Christmas. Wearing pointed felt hats, wrapped in long brown cloaks, under which occasionally appears a goat skin jacket adorned with large metal buttons, their legs encased in tignt-fltting breeches as far as the knee, and their foot adorned with rage fastened by leather thongs about the ankle and calf, they are most pioturesque objects. Thus attired, the zampognari go from house to house, singing and playing before the little gilded images of the Virgin and child, and stopping before the street shrines, where they repeat their monotonous songs. On Christmas Eve, when there is a spirit of liberality abroad, the znm pognaro usually receives a large number of coppers, ami as much in the way of food and drink as his stomach can ac commodate. When the festival is over they return to their mountain homes, thero to pass their time ns laborers or shepherds until the next oecurs. The bagpipers of the Abruzzi frequently act as models, their picturesque costume adapting itself readily to artistic pur poses. - Hurper'e, Gold In Asia. Prejevslsky, the explorer, is now tell ing the Russian audiences to whom he is describing his last great journey that “gold is very plentiful throughout North ern Thibet.” He says he saw natives mining near the sources of the Hoang Ho fiver. They dug only one or two feet b'-low the surface, ami their methods of washing were of the most primitive description. “Nevertheless,” says Preje valsky, “they showed us whole handfuls of gold in lumps ai big as peas, and twice or thrice as big.” Mr. W. Meany, 'who has also visited the diggings of Northern and Eastern Thilwit, corrobo rates J’rejevalsky's estimate of their great value. He says he saw gold in nuggets from the size of a pea to that of a hazel nut, almost perfectly pure and nerfectly malleable. Prejevslsky ex presses the opinion that at a lower depth great treasures will lie found on this im mensely elevated plateau. The deepest and richest diggings observed by Mr. Mesny were about sixteen feet below the surface. In his opinion no metal will be found below the bed of rock on which this surface gold bearing stratum rests, and in this respect he appears to dissent from the opinion expressed by Prqje valsky.
