SOME THINGS THAT HE CANNOT UNDERSTAND— PAYING HIS FARE. From the Baltimore American. Mark Twain has a good deal of difficulty in getting on the right train of cars. He says that depots always get turned around over night, and if he wants to go west they invari- bly run him off east. Street cars are never where they are wanted; but if yon don’t want one you are obliged to walk around or climb over it. And then this paying fare for other people; when he attempts it he generally puts the change in his own ‘ket until his mind comes back to him. The other day he at- tempted to pay fare for an old lady, but in- stead of giving her the nickel as change he put it in the box, and gave the lady the celluloid check. She explained that it wasn’t of any use to her, so he sent up another dime, and com- mitted the same blunder again. Again she smiled and said she couldn’t market with the railroad company’s “token.” Hurriedly fishing a quarter out of his clothes, he Sropped it into her lap, saying, “Beg pardon, madam; I give it up; that box is too much for me,” and, get- ting out of the car, he found he had gone three miles in tl direction. It was ina spirit of mortification over such occurrences, perhaps, as well as of revenge on rhythm and all the rascally/lines that oblige parade. The Hale Zouaves, of Kansas City, Mo., are coming. Capt. Merrill, the secretary of the committee on civic organizations, states that since January 19 fifteen organizations have applied for posi- tion in the parade, The total number of clubs is now 124. of which number 13 have made no report of their numbers. The uumber of men reported is now 20,541. Gen. John E. Smith, the department com- mander of the Union Veteran Army Nebraskt, has received a letter from past commander-in-chief, Gen, Tibbles, the chair- man of the national executive committee, U. | V. A., notifying him that a clreular will’ be issued from headquarters to the department commanders and their staffs in every state in the Union requesting them to participate in the parade on inauguration day. Gen. Tibbles will bring with him about fifty veterans from New Jersey. once That Coming Cold Wave. The regular bulletin of the weather bureau says: “The temperature has slightly risen from the east gulf coast to the Ohio valley and the lower lake region; it has fallen throughout the lake region and the northwest, and de- eidedly in Dakota, Minnesota, and ‘northern Nebraska, and a cold wave is advancing south- eastward from that region.” — —o_ A Chance Silhouette.

By the monastic laws the lay monks were commanded to let their beards grow and only the priests to shave; and a writer previous to the reformation complains that the manners of the clergy had become so cor- rupt that they could not be distinguished from the laity by their actions, but only by their lack of beards. Consequently the early re- formers suffered their beards to grow to dis- ish them from the adherents to Rome; and the reformation becoming general in Eng. land, the beard by this means came into fashion. As to the shapes of the beard worn by our fore- fathers, they seem to have been of infiaite variety. Ata period when almost all the men wore swords and those weapons were fre- quently drawn to decide very trifling quarrels, a beard cut to look terrible ‘to an enemy was the day time and robbed of a tin box contain- ing about $65 worth of jewelry. The prisoner guided the officer to where she said the stolen property was buried, in a sand bank near 12th and E streets southwest. The box was found but it was empty. The prisoner, who gave her name as Ada Cross, was taken to the Police Court this morning and sent to jail for a hear- ing next week. a Mysterious Fascination of Pool. From the New York Sun. The proprietor of an up-town pool room, whose name is familiar to half the billiard players in the United States, remarked last night as he glanced over a hundred or two men who were scattered about his place: “It is a mysterious thing to me where the fascination of the game of pool comes in.
