BITS OF OMAH A LIPE, Thoy are telling a good one on Scip Dundy. He was on one of his hunting trips up in Wyoming some time ago aud fixed ud a clover trap to catch some of the' memovers of the party and feil iato it real hard him- self. He came across a big log in the woods one aftornoon and carstully measured the length of it for futura rofereaco. Tho nex day bo managed to gov the hunting parly in that vicivity and promotly started a talk about his great eye for distance and finally offered to bet a good hat that he could guoss within six inches of the length of thelog near which they were stacding. The wagor was taken aud Scip, ufter carefully eveing the log fora wmoment, placed its leagth at thirty-four feet. A tapa lue was produced, when 1t was found thatthe log was just thirty-two feet in lengih. Scip was about the most thoroughly surprised man you ever saw. There wasa man in tho party who didw't seem at all astonished. He had seen Scip measuring the log the day before and had gone out 1n the night and sawed off two feet of the timber. ‘I'hat is the reason iHenry [Estabrook is wearing a hat which Scip pald for. The average mau would fare very well if he were as well fed and as well cared for as the avarage pug dog. But there are two pugs, owned by a North Omaha young lady, which fare even better than the mujority of their pug brothers and sisters. They are sleck and fat and potted from morning till night. Their mistress washos and combs them each day and curls their tails, accord- ing to the latest fashion. Each afternoon, when the weather is rne, she takes ber charges out for an airinz. But suddenly these afternoon promeundes ceased, and it was all on account of the eternal small boy. The particular small boy lived a few doors from the young lady with the pugs, and one afternoon was out fu the vard playing. His mother was watching him from an open window, and every few minutes ho would call up to her just toses thatsho had not gone away. Just then the young lady with bor pugs came marching along. The youn ster stood for a moment with wide open cyes and gazed at the procession. Tnen he turned and called to bis mother: *“Mama! Oh mamal There goes the pug dogs and their nurse.” — INDUSTRIAL NOTES, The matches made yearly are worth §185,- 000,000, The manufacture of cicarettes has in- creased in thirteen years from 235,000,000 to 2,877,000,000.
