He Pulled the Rope.
Lawyer Tom Primliyille was down in Freo
domville again one day last week, and ro
j turned loaded down to the gunwales with
another cargo of fresh stories from the little
town where liberty and truth slumber
under the same shod and drink out of
the same dipper. Here is a sample as Tom
tells it: “There was a darky stopping there
for a day or two who was a beauty. He wore
a high bat that bad been black once, but bad
i since bleached to a fawn color. Around his
! neck was twisted a collar that had been in
: tended as a turn down, but he wore it
with the ends turned up. His vest would
have made an elegant side partner for a can
vas horse feed bucket, but it admirably
matched his pants, which were brief but to
the point, quite in contradistinction to his
elongaiters, which seemed to have been

Freedomvillo, so he concluded to leave the

stops at Froeilomville is when a citizen tings
by rolling a rock on the track, but the tinted
brother wasn’t up to that wrinkle and sought
for information from my friend, the French- .

’ as he called it, which bung near the station.
When the colored gent saw the train within

Parisian corsages are still in the main ver_v
long waisted, but relieved by a broatl ribbon -
folded and loosely tied at one side, with long
ends falling down over the skirt.
Yoke waists grow more and more in favor,
and the French blouse, with fitted lining and ■

A Wonderful Feat.
Among half a dozen commercial drummers,
who occupied seats in a Central Hudson
smoker yesterday relating their accustomed
; yarns for their own edification, was one who
had made himself conspicuous by his silence.
IL; sat in a thoughtful mood with his smok
ing cap drawn partly down over his eyes, and
i with a large sample case in front of him, he
• did not look like a deceiver.
The conversation had turned on their ’naif
breadth escapes from railway accidents, and
; while each went the previous one a little bet
ter, this modest one did not wonder at any of
the stories or essay to question them. But
his turn camo and ho had his revenge,
“Speaking of hard riding,” said ho, as o
, hardware drummer had finished a blood
curdling recital of a lightning ride on a New
! England road, “the fastest traveling I ever
' did was on a single track road in Kansas.
Wo had just rounded a curve when the con
ductor entered the car hurriedly and cried:
‘Shut your eyes and hang on to the seat.’ Wo
all did as wo were bid. A moment later and
wo were experiencing an awful sensation.
I The car scorned to shudder, the windows to
creak and then all was over. A moment
afterward the conductor entered and gave
the order: ‘Open your eyes and let go the
! scats.’
1 “Everything looked natural, but the queer
, proceedings had aroused my curiosity and I
, was led to ask the conductor what had taken
: place.
“ ‘Not mud!,’ said he, ‘This is a single
tracked road and we just jumped a freight.’”

■ When Marcus A. Smith, the handsome
delegate from Arizona, first camo hero he
wore a soft felt hat with a wide brim and o
• turned down collar with n flowing necktie. ;
liis indifference to the quality or fit of bis
i garments was a matter of comment among
i his colleagues. But this is all changed since
he took quarters in a fashionable hotel, and
became a “society man.” The other evening
he was standing in the lobby of the Ebbitt
house smoking a cigarette. He was dressed
with great cure in the extreme of fashion.
His silk faced Prince Albert coat was closely
buttoned and he wore a boutonniere of vio
' lets in the lapel. Under the “Piccadilly” col
i hr appeared the bow of a white lawn necktie
j and upon his head was a new silk hat. He
i held buff gloves and a cane in his left hand
! and toyed with his cigarette with his right.
A friend came presently along, and, seeing
i him, stopped suddenly and eyed him from
herd to foot..
•‘Great Scott, Smith!” ho exclaimed, “what
would your folks down in Tombstone say if
, they could see you now! And smoking a
i cigarette, too! I will write a description of ■
your present appearance and see that it is
! published down there."
“The cigarette is all right,” said Smith,
I carelessly. *" “Everybody down that way
I s.nokes cigarettes. It s a Spanish and Mexi
can custom. They wouldn’t mind that, of
course; but for heaven’s sake don t mention
• the plug hat. They wouldn’t stand that.”—
