wis A Inte while was sitting the bench, a fine looking man entered the courtroom and sent a letter up to me. It was from a friend of mine in troducing John Morrissey. He, too. was fined id to me that be would send me his check en his re- turn to New York.

“Well, 1 didn't hap] if he was let n that under standing, but 1 said to Morrissey that any arrangement for settlement which he made with the sheriff would be sat- isfactory. The sheriff. feeling as 1 did, insisted upon having the fine paid in cash, and since Morrissey didn’t happen to have that much cash with bim the sheriff locked him up until the amount was sent on from New York.

“I fancied that Morrissey felt he owed me a grudge because of this in- cident. Years afterwari! in Washing- ton a number of new congressmen were brought up to be introduced to me. Among them wis Morrissey. When he came forward, be smiled and said, ‘Mr. Dawes, 1 believe we bave met before.’ ”

Some visitors to East Gloucester paid a special call upon the woman gaid to be the original of Mrs. Eliza- beth Stuart Phelps Ward's famous story, “A Madonna of the Tubs.” Mrs. Phelps Ward's summer home, be it known, is in East Gloucester. The visitors found a typical New England- er with a self evident capacity for tak- ing care of herself.

“Bo you are the Madonna of the Tubs?’ said the visitors.

“j] am,” said the New Englander.

“and Mrs. Phelps Ward wrote a beautiful story about you ?”

“She did.”

“Have you ever met Mrs. Ward?’

“] bave. After she wrote that story she came round here one day and hunt- ed me up. She said as how she wanted te see me for herself.”

“How interesting!” murmured the Visitors. “And what did you do?”

“Do?” reneated the Maonna cf the Tubs. “What did ido? f sassed her well fer writin such a story as that about me. Such a pack of lies 1 never read. Why, there wasn’t one-half of it true. And she had the face to come and see me afterward! Oh, | sassed her well, 1 did!”

WHAT’S IN A NAME?

' ' is - P An Interesting Diseussion eon a Very Ancient Question, “Mentioning the subject of queer 4 | names,” said the man from the esaé as he smoked meditatively, “I had an s uncle whose name was Woodenlec™ #| “Is that your name, may I ask?" & i quired the man in the next seat. B | “No. He was an uncle by marriage ' only. But my aunt’s name fitted bis =» | toa charm.” ; “That is strange.”

“Yes. She was a Walker. Couldn't S| have been more appropriate, could i? ” 6a! ha!”

“By act of legislature?’ asked ta¢ man from the east.

| “No. She married a man named ' Drinkwater.”

More silence and smoke.

| first speaker resumed:

“I knew a man in Saiem, Mass, where my folks lived, who was always

- called Slowcome.” | “Well, wasn’t that his name?”

“No, it wasn’t. He had a peculiar kind of a slow walk, and the Ssaiem boys fixed that name on him. It made him so angry to be nicknamed that they followed him around calling ‘Mr. Slowcome!’ at his heels. He kept @ shop, and they tormented him until te appealed to the police to raid the bors and protect him. A man in uniforgy was sent to read the riot act to the

which he did effectually. Thea went into the shop and said to the they had nicknamed Slowcomeg

“T heard a story,” said the man i the next seat, “of two ladies, mothe and daughter. The girl was expecting a new young man acquaintance to call on her and was coaching her mother on his name. ‘Now remember, ma, his name is Cowdry, and I want you to say

The philosopher of the curbstone rises to remark that:

The vulgarest people on earth are ' those who talk most of the yulgarity of others.

When a2 woman says of another we man's hat, “It’s a sight on ber,” she means she believes it would be becom- ing to herself.

It is only the married woman whe says “Thank you’ when you resign your seat in a street car. The others take it for granted.

The only difference between the av- erage girl and the average widow is: The former is consumed with curiosity; the latter has lost bers.
