He hadn't been in the town two hours before an “unregenerated” pulled his nose. “Ah—yes!” said the man from Connecticut. “Was that accidental!” “No, sir! No, sir!” was the fierce re- joinder. " “Did it a purpose, eh?” “Of course I did!” “Well, I shouldn't a-thought it of you! I'll pass it over as a case of temporary insanity.” An hour later as he eat hotel, a fire-eater approached him and spit on his boots and stood and glared at him. “You must have a wobble to your tongue if you can't spit straighter than that!” said a man frm Connecti’ cut. i “I meant so, sir—I meant so !” “ Wanted to get me mad, eh” in the “Yes, sir!

It was supposed that strikers were an original outcome to our modern civilization ; but the deciphering of a papyrus in the muse um of Turin shows how the old pro verb that there is nothing new under the sun applies to strikes as well as to many other things. This papyrus, which is a sort of journal or day: book of the superintendent of the Thebes necropolis, furnishes curious details of a workmen's riot or disturbroce in Thebes, in the twenty-ninth year of a King Rames, who is supposed 5 be Ramses III.
