TRAMP WINS A WIFE. | Runs. Of with the Daughter of His Farmer Employer. Pretty Lizzie Gordon of Mattawan, N. J., has eloped with Charles Davis, who less than a year ago was a tat- tered tramp, while Lizzie was a bloom- ing rural beauty, who might have had her pick of the eligible farmer lads in the neighborhood. Her father is Court- ney H. Gordon, a rich farmer, whose Place is three miles from Mattawan, N. J. Early last sj-ing Davis, tattered, torn and fcot weary, arrived at the Gordon farm and asked for work. He said he was of gocd family, but in hard luck, and he begged.so bard for employment that Farmer Gordca hired him. Davis seemed to put his whole heart in the work he had to do about the farm, and the farmer liked him so well that he kept him employed until about ten days ago, when the farm work slackened and his help was not needed Davis\then took up his residence ar Keyport. After having worked for Gordon a few weeks Davis was able to buy him- self good clothes. Upon occasions hr donned his best and made a very good appearance. The longer he stayed at the farmhouse the better he was liked by the Gordon family. It was noticed that Miss Lizzie often smiled upon him, and of late they had been seen strolling along the road together. They were seen so often together that the neigh- bors began to remark, saying “That Davis fellow seems to be shining up to his young mistress.” Nothing se- rious was thought of by the family, however, and the daughter was allow- ed to receive the man’s attentions. d After leaving the farm Davis came down upon several occasions to see Miss Lizzie. One day last month he same to the house with a horse and buggy and took her for a drive. They went to Keyport and since then have not been seen. The parents searched the girl’s room and found that she had taken a sav- ings bank book which contained a ered- it for $100 at a bank in New Bruns- wick. HANDSHAKE OF THE WHEEL. Offspring of a Rotary Mind, It Takes a Circular Twist. The bicycle is responsible for « new salutation, From the wheel to ride has been evolved the wheel to shake. The new handshake is rotary, muscular and amusing; it is also growing popular. The bicycle handshake is here to stay, and neither war hor rumors of war will diminish its popula The bicycle handshake is the natural offspring of a rotary mind busied 12 hours in the day with its own and other people’s wheels. If men and women ride wheels and talk little else but wheels it is only natural that they should scon begin to think wheels, and thinking wheels mates the thinker look at life as a thing circular, speedy and puncturable. The bicycle face, the high and | art , the puncture- proof self-assurance and the chainless conversational ability are part and parcel of the bicycle cra. And now the bicycle handshake adds the final touch of refinement. To ride on the saddle of convention- ality you must grasp the right grip of a friend when you meet him or her, elevate your digital handlebar above your chin and push off into space with your hand and the hand of your friend in tandem, describing a 100-inch sprocket wheel in the air, while you indulge in verbal scorching about the weather—and wheels. In other words you grasp the hand of your friend and attempt to wrest his arm out of Its socket by making a human windmill } of him. If you don’t indulge in the bicycle handshake—well, you’re not a wheelman, and that means social and business ostracism.—New York Jour- nal. TOOK ACCUSTOMED PLACES. Ten of the Twelve Jurymen the Criminal Dock. “I have just returned svom a trip to the southwest,” said a lawyer, “and whenever I happened to be in a town where a court was sitting I made it my business to go and see how. justice was dispensed. In one town, which shall be nameless, the trial of a man who has been accused of shooting a neighbor’s dog was about to begin. I found the court room crowded with lo- eal characters, each one of whom mounted at least two rapid fire guns, slick oiled and well loaded. Twelve of File Into ; these fellows had been drawn for the jury, and as they swaggered around it was easy to see that they felt their own importance. By and by there was an agitation near the door,.and in marched the judge. Seating him- self on the bench he rapped for s lence, and, acting as his own crier, he shout- ed in a massive vo-ce: ““This court will now come to or- der, end it came. Another thump on his desk, and then the judge said in a decisive fashion: “‘The gents who have been drawn for the jury will now take their accus- tomed places.’ “Twelve heavily armed men arose as one man and ten of them filed into the dock.”—New York Sun. An Old English Firm, For more than 300 years a drapery business has been carried on in the same building at Sheffleld, under the title of the Sign of the Crowne, and since 1750 the business has been con- ducted by one family. Which Half? An American judge remarked the other day that Chicago held “more saints and more sinners than any other ; elty in the world.” He ts about half right — Plek Wap, MADZ ai! ENOLISH SENATOR. Qne of the Pecutlarities of Registering. - at Monaco. To be thoroughly informed about the personality and movements of every visitor, the government at Monaco, Eu- Fope’s gambling principality, supplies the hotel registers, which are examin- ed daily by the police, and any land- lord who allows a guest to remain even for a night in his house without filling up the blanks makes himself liable to a heavy fine. The blanks include such questions as name, residence, occupa- tion, last halting place, intended. dura- tion of stay in Monaco and intended destination. So, when George appear- ed with the black-covered book in his hand I knew what he wanted. Per- haps I should explain that here, as in most European hotels, it is not neces- sary for a guest to go near the office ‘unless he chooses to,, The regtster is brought to his room; the bills, the meals, if he likes, and the landlord, too, if he is rung for. “All right, George.” I told him, “don’t bother me wiih the thing. You register under any name and occupa- tion you think would bgsuitable. Iam not in the least particular.” He went to the mantel piece with the book and a lead pencil, and his ex- pression showed that he was going through a severe mental struggle. When it was over he brought r — the book to see “wheder dat’ll do, cu...” In his anxiety to make his country- man appear as grand as possible, he had rather turned the tables upon me, for he had registered me as “Hon. G. W. Ingram; residence, Washington; vccupation, United States senator; last stopping place, Paris; intended stay in Monaco, two weeks; intended destina- tion, Cairo, Egypt.” Fine as it looked, such false pretenses might lead to awk- ward complications, and it was neces- sary to find some way to back. out gracefully. “Has my friend registered yet?” I asked. “No, sah,” said George. “I’se jest goin’ to his room now, sah.” “Very, well, then,” I told him, “You need not trouble him. This descrip- tion you have written will answer. for him very nicely, and I will put my own uame and ‘pedigree’ beneath it,” which I did, and the rosy young Englishman received the greatest honor of his life by being made for the moment an American and a senator.—New York Times. SHE FOOLED THE BORROWER. Mendacions Woman's Scheme to Avold Making a Small Loan. There is an art in warding off re- quests for small loans which some mem possess, but when it comes to polite, ingenious, ‘not to say scientific, denials. and evasions the average woman far surpasses the average man. Usually, too, Women manage to dodge the bor- rowers without greatly straining the truth, though the instance which fol- lows is an exception. A Chicago wo- man with a reputation as a borrower turned up at the home of one of her friends the other morning with a much done-over story about a persistent and threatening dressmaker, and the usual request for the loan—‘pay it back to- morrow, certain”—of $5. “Why, my dear, certainly,” was the Pleasant response to her carefully re- hearsed little yarn. “You poor thing, you! Just wait till I run upstairs and get my purse.” She ran upstairs. The male head of the house happened to be in the room where she kept her purse. He saw her dig the purse out of ths chiffonier drawer and deliberately remove a wad of bills from it, leaving about’87 cents in silver and copper in the change re- ceptacle. The man was mean enougt to lean over the stair railing when hid wife went downstairs to the rarlor with her flattened pocketbook in her hana “Oh, I’m so sorry, Mrs, X.,” he heard her say, “but I really thought I had the money. I find, though, that John 88 usual, has been at my purse—I heard him say sometking about settling a plumber’s bill last night when I was half asleep—and the mean thing has only left me enough for car fare. Too bad!. Of course, you know, if I had it,” etc. POWER OF THE PRESS. Washington Society People Toady to Reporters, “Now that we are a settled element in the community and nation the re- porters do not bother us about little things so much—our newness and in- terest having been rubbed off together.
