A well known citizen of Dutch ex- traction sent to the grocery the other y for a pound of butter, The boy returned with it, and reported that it cost thirty cents. The Dutchman was wroth, and hastily placing on bis hat be went to the grocery and handed back the butter. “Dot vas gost doo much,'? he de- clared as be shoved it across the show ase. “vont nod bay dirty cends yt patter, I vill bay von hirty cents is the price, and we cannot sell it for less,’ replied the wer, as he replaced the butter in box, ‘You can’t get it for a cent less anywhere in town.’’ ‘1 can ged dot putter vor dirty cents on dot market,’? the would be purchaser declared,as he left shaking bis bead and dislocating the ten com- mandments in Hebrew or something similar. He boarded ® car and was soon spinning towards market, At the Market house he found plenty of butter, and it sold for twenty-five ents a pound, He bought « pound, and in bis exultation he spent ten cents on the way back to the street car, for beer and then took the first car that came along. Reaching bis destination, he jumped off and made a bee line for the grocery. He dartel in the door, held bis purcbese aloft,and exclaimed triumphantly, “+See vot 1 god it vonce tty, and I didn’t bay put a ter vor id, eider. Votl dell you, vot Edell you? 1 shumps on a car und mages a quick trib, py golly, shust do show you dot you sharge *} doo much vor dot putter.”” ‘You took a car, then,’’ inquired the grocer. “Dot's vot L tid, und I could hat god ten bounds more of der putter ef 1 vanted id.”’ “Did you ride back on the car?” asked the grocer. “Yess, 1 ride pack, doo, and driak two peers on de vay.”’ “Umbamph,”” concluded the gro- cer, “you spent ten cents for car fare, ton cents for beer, and twenty- five vents for butter, so you see your butter cost you jast forty-five cents, while you could bave gotten it bere for thirty cents.’ The old Dutchman looked inquir+ at the groceryman for a few nds, scratched bis head, and then exclaimed “Say, gife me two bounds uv dot putter, und don’t sa; . tam wort apout I make how pig a shackass out uv myself, Ve vill inke somedings on me’? And they disappeared into the saloon. + 1.2 Acertain old bachelor has invented anew term for children. vedless to say, he is not fond of thm, and never pays any attention to them further than to give them nickles—to get rid of them The other be was passing @ house where several children were playing in the yard, when they began imitating a war dance, or something similar, “I'll tell you,’? declared the bachelor, #8 he looked over at the whooping mob, ‘these ‘land-c are h—lIl when they get started. The gentleman with him the first time he ever beard c! alluded to 4s *land-calliopes."” +t ce A certain small boy is the envy of y of his companions since a few ys ago. A crowd of his friends thought it would be a good joke to send him around in search of a job, They informed him that there was a good position awaiting some one at a well known Broadway wanufactory, and advised him to spply for it, They had no idea there wes a job there awaiting an applicant, The unsuspecting youth went rap idly to the place and applied, and ‘as told that there was an opening, and that be would be paid 86 # week as shipping clerk. He ac- cepted the position, and when his ympanions saw him diligently at work there a day or two afterwards, their surprise was equalled only by their discomfiture. The joke was on them, | a, ‘1 see where the school board is going to allow colored children to go to the white schools,’’ remarked a way this worniag. “Why? the gentleman to his right, * was the quick reply of}+ blackboards,’’ was the retort. TV YT An Irishman applied fo Mayor Lang the other day for a position a: hostier, He noticed that the mayor always rode a good horse and c to the conclusion that he needed a good man to attend to it. “I’ve already got a man who at tends to it just like I want him to, and it doesn’t cost me a cent, He is the man I had beea looking for a long time, and is the only man I ever found upon whom 1 can de- pend,’’ he was told. “‘Humpb,”’ was the depreca retort, “Oi guiss it’s a nager yez hired, begorra. “No. not a mayor. “Who moight it ba inquired the disappointed applicant, as he started to leave. “It's myself’? was the rejoinder, and the Irishman left satisfied. Tek a There is considerable indignation in the Sixth ward over the way one of the election officers acted at the registration the other day. Hemade the assertion that no colored voter could register after 8 a. m., and that no republican whatever could regis- ter after 4 p.m. Toe result was that a good many of the colored men believed him and failet to register. He laughs about it, sad says be was only joking, but the joke was evi- dently not received in the same spirit in which it was offered. The statement he made was, of course, absurd, and no sensible man would believe it under ordinary cits cumstances, but the disrepute the Goebel election Jaw has come into renders anything relative to elections creditible these days, especially among the less intelligent element, “So they can use their backs | gger,”” corrected the TEMPERANCE WOMEN Thanked Goy.

A Criminal Condemned to. Death Has Two Chances for Life. in the middle ages @ ondemned to death had two lawful chances for his life besides the pardon of his sovereign. One was in accidentally mecting a cardinal when on his way to execution, the other was in an offer of marriage from a mem- ber of the opposite sex after sentence was pronounced. This last see very unf: asmuch as criminals al- ready married were at a bad disad- vantage, but law in the middle a often seemed more concerned with the picturesque than with justice, and these arrangements for saving dead men, 60 to speak, have left many good it sin the old chronicles. n 1309 a cardinal named Rochette faved a man condemned to be hanged in Paris. The two meton the street of Aubry le Boucher, and the cardinal swore before the authorities that the meeting was accidental, and the man was set free. In 1382 Charles VI. granted a par- don which turned into English reade thus: “Henrequin Doutart was con- demued to be drawn to execution ona hurdle, and then to be hanged by the neck till dead. In accordance with which decree he was drawn and car- cied by the hangmamto the gibbet, and when he had the rope around his neck, then one Peannette Mourchon, 8 maiden of the town of Hawanicourt, presented herself before the provost ind his lieutenant and supplicated and requested ¢ id provost and his lieutenant to deliver over to her Doutart, to be her husband fore the execution was inter. cupted, and he was led back te on, and, by the tenor of these let- ters it is our will that thesaid Doutart shall be pardoned and released.” Anothe ory is not ¢o well au thenticated, but is very popular in ‘Normandy’s traditions, A manetood at the foot of the gibbet with the rope about his neck when a shrewish sharp: voiced woman pressed through the crowd and demanded his life that she might marry him; the condemned man took one d look at her, then turned to the hangman and said “A painted nose, a bitter tongue Proceed, I'd rather far be hung.”— Cleveland Leader READING AND BOOKS. Everybody Who Really Wants To Car Find Some Leisure. “A vast number of people do not rap about reading,” said An. gustine Birrell. “They may pretend to, but they do not. They say they cannot find time; it is the merest eub- terfuge. They could easily find time if they chose, but they preferdoing so many other things first.
