A Joke That Fatled,

fburing ove of the legislative sessions

\lhany Senator Thomas F. Grady wired for bis evening dress suit. He wished to attend a reception. When

the satchel arrived at Grady’s apart- ments, bis roommate, Assistant Cor- poration Counsel Thomas J. Creamer, opened it, took out the dress suit and replaced it with one of his rainy day suits.

“Let’s get a crowd of senators here when Grady opens that satcbel thie evening,” said Creamer.

“All right,” said Senator Timothy B. Sullivan. “Hurry up and get the sena- tors.”

As soon as Creamer left the room Sullivan took Creamer’s old suit out of the satehel and put back Grady’s ever- ing dress suit.

Senators Coggeshall, Ahearn, Coffey, Featherson, Martin and McCarren were present when Grady opened the satch- el. As be carefully unrolled his dress suit the senators looked at Creamer. The latter was speechless. At Jast he stutiered:

Trick of the Sleight of Hand Man,

The Anne Psychologique bas an in- teresting article by M. Binet, the weit known French psychologist, on mentaf suggestion and prestidigitation, I which he shows that sleight of hand and clever tricks do not make a pres- tidigitateur without a power cf “sug gestion” on the spectator. A skilled performer has a marvelous power of acting on the secret springs of the will. Thus he can generally make & person choose a figure below ten by the way he asks for it. If he wishes the person to choose five, be runs rap- idly over the first figures and dwells a little on “five” to suggest it to the memory. It is also curious that of such figures “seven” is the most likely to be chosen and “one” the least likely

His Imagination.

During one of the Napoleonic cam paigns a Frenchman was tripped up by a spent cannon ball, but without being injured in any way. He thought both his legs had been carried off and lag on the ground al! night, suffering ex- cruciating agony and never moving for Next day the medical officer, coming aroun, said to him, “What has happened to you. comrade?’ “Ah.” he answered,

“please touch me gently! A cannop ball has carried off both my legs!”

The Oratory of Gallerus,

The oldest Christian structure in Tre. land is a remarkable building, evident- ly very ancient, but wonderfully welb preserved, at Dingle. in County erry. It is popularly known as the “Oratory of Gallerus.’” Who Gallerus was hts. tory does not say. but as the oratory has stood practically uninjired for more than a thousand years he was probably one of the converts of St Patrick.
