around town to see the elephant antf

all tho scrappers made their head-1
quarters. Hack ot tho saloon was a
building where a professor of th?
manly art gnro instructions, and
where the 'pugs' thumped each other,
at exhibitions. They were 'trying!
out a new arrival that day and Ij
should say there wero forty or fifty!
tough looking chaps' In the placet
Soon after I entered a young luan,
who had come through from PonYcr
In my car dropped in. He couldn't
have been over 24 years of age, while,
he was over six feet tall and bis
weight only alout 1-0 pound:. He
was long-race;, thin nnd long-legged
and reminded you of nothing so much
as a lioy on stilts. Two men were
getting reudv to go on when longi
legs peeled off his coat, vest, tie and
collar, put them in my charge, and'
climlcd upon the platform."
"That was a dcfl to the crowd?"
"Exactly, and In tbout a minute
they put a man up to punch hi head
off. They gave long-leg a second
and the first thing he did was to take
the glassos off the young man's nose.
The latter reached for them and said:
" 'Excuse me, but I always fight
with my glares on.'
" lut they'll get knocked o.T or
Jammed into your fare.'
" 'iKin't you tcllevc it! It's never
hapiened yet, and I don't think it
will now.'
"Tne Bv-rapfcr over In tho other
corner couldn't make it out. Hero
was a man so sure of himself that ho
was going to put up Ills dukes with n
pair of eye-glasses on his nose. Ho
must, perforce, be a knocker-out from
Knockersvllle, ami It was lie; ter ti
retreat than to carry around a broken
Jaw. He therefore retreated. Sev
eral others came forward, but when
they haw long-legs seated cross-legged
in his corner with those glasses
poised so Jauntily they didn't want
anything of him. Then he got WP
and said:
" '(icntlcmen, there is no limit ta
weight. 1 always light in glasses, as
I'm a little near-sighted. I will
however, remove my glass eye anr
fale teeth if deemed best. Will yout
best man step up here for a couple ol
rounds?'
"Hut no one stepped. lie waited f,
minute or two and then pulled nU
the gloves with a look of disappoint
ment and g'it into his clothes and wc
went out together. Ho dldn t lool
to me at ail like a scrapper, and a
we walked down the street 1 said: )
" ' hat sort or a deal were y
giving that crowd?'
"'A glgantis bluff,' ho answer
with a laugh.
" 'Arc you a lighter:'
" 'I never struck a b'.ow In my 1
not even la tun.'
j " 'Hut supiKise ono of those scrap
pers had tackled you?'
" '1 should have backed down and
asked 'cm all up to drink. Kut there
was no danger. I've tried it half a
do.eti times before, and tho glasses'
always ecttlc 'em.'
" How about the glass eye and the
fa 10 teeth?'
" '1 simply rung 'em in to help oni
the blulT. Haven't got a false tooth,
in my head, anil both eyes are per
fect. It's a bluff of my own lnvcn
tlon and works like a charm, l'lease
don't give It away.'
"And that afterno:n," said the De
troiter in conclusion, "when wo took

Why Flowers Sleep.
Why should (lowers sleep? as!:s Sif
John Lubbock in "Tlie licauiie cf
Nature and the Wonders of the
World We Live In." Why should
loine (lowers do so and not others?
Moreover, diflcrent flowers keep dif.
ferent hours. Tho daisy opens at
tuurlso and closes at sunset, whence
Its name, '-day's eye." The dande
lion (Leoniodoii) is said to open about
7 and to close about 5; Arenaria
rubra to be open fiom !l to .T, tho
whlto water lily (N.vmpii ia) from
about 7 to 4: tho c iiiiinon mouse-car
hawkwecd (Hioracltim) from hi to 3;
the scarlet plmrcrncd (Anagallis) to
waken at " and close soon after 2;
'ir.igopogon platcnsls to open at 4 it.
the morning and cloo Just before 12,
whence its English name, "John go
to bed at nooii." Farmers' boys ia
some paits an said to regulate, their
dinner time by it. Other ilowers, on
tho contrary, open in tho evening.
Now it Is obvious that Ilowers
which ate fertilized by night-Hying
insects would derive no advantage
from being open by day, and on tho
other hand, that those which are fer
tilized by bees would galu nothing
by being open at night Nay, It
would be a distinct disadvantage, be
causo It would tender limn liabie to
lo robbed of their honey and pollen
by Insects which aro not capable ol
fertilizing them. I havo ventured
to suggest, then, that tho closing ot
tho Ilowers may have reference to the
habits of thu insects, and it may bo
observed also in support of this that
wliiil-rcrtilked (lower do not sleep;
and that many or those tlowen which
attract insists by buiell open und
emit their scant at particular hours;
thus Hesperui matronal Is and Ly
