tW James and Thomas Hart were ar
retted iu a Colorado town the other day for
jointly beating a barkeeper. These must
be the persons referred to by the poet when
lie spoke of " two Ilai is that boat as one."
v tW A politician, writlnj; to the widow
of a deceased member of the Legislature,
tys : " I cannot toll you how pained I was)
to bear that your husband had gone to
heaven. We were bosom friends j but now
we shall never meet again."
tW An Irishman who got laughed at for
making faces over some persimmons, re
plied thusly : ' Ye may grin, you
mutton-headed idiots ! but I can lather the
owl out of the man that spilt vinegar
over them plums."
tJT" An inveterate toper, In the locality
where the ardent was under the ban, put
some rock candy iu a bottle, rubbed the
neok with camphor, and then bad the
druggist fill it with whiskey. The wife
of the purchaser was "troubled so much
with the headache."
I say, Sambo," said one Virginia
darkey to another, can you answer this
oonunderum ; s'posin I gib you a bottle of
whiskey corked shut with a cork bow
would you get the whiskey out without
pullin' de cork or breakin' de bottle ?"
" I gibs dat up." " Why push de cork in.
CST" An invalid Frenchman who hired a
horse every evening from a livery stable,
particularly desired the hostler to see that
the horse bad nothing to eat for dinner.
" Because," he remarked, " Monsieur le
doctour he say I mus' tak' ze gentle exer
cise on ze empty stomach."
t3T A contemporary explains " Why do
young men leave the farm," but be doesn't
say that many of them leavo It to see their
girls in their neighboring village.and others
leave it to go the city and see the elephant
and come back with a headache ten feet in
diameter and their pockets minus fifteen
dollars.
tyOne of two young ladies who recent
ly visited the city, from the country, wrote
home as follows : " We attract a good eal
of attensbun while promonadiu the streets
like other ladys and holden up our cloze.
Nobody ipn't nothln' now a days, which
don't hold up there clozo, and the bier you
holds 'em, the more attensbun you attrex."
IW "Tommy, my son, fetch in a stick
of wood." "Ah! my dear mother," re
plied the youth, "the grammatical portion
of your education has been sadly neglected.
You should have said "Thomas my son,
transport from that recumbent collection
of combustible material upon the threshold
of this edifice one of the curtailed excre
sences of a defunct log."
" Your handwriting is very bad in
deed," said a gentleman to a young college
friend who was more addicted to boating
and cricketing than to hard study. " You
really ought to learn to write better."
"Ay, ay I" returned the young man, "it
is all very well for you to tell me that ; but,
if I were to write better, people would be
finding out bow I spell."
OT In church, on a recent Sunday
morning, the usual donning of overcoats
was proceeding amid considerable confu
sion, but had not been completed when the
pastor arose to pronounce the benediction,
lie paused a minute, and said : " Brethren
I guess I'll put on my overcoat hereafter
during the benediction, so as not to lose
any time."
tW A lawyer the other day went into a
barber's shop to procure a wit;. In taking
the dimepsions of the lawyer's head the
barber exclaimed, " Why, how long your
head is, sir I" " Yes," replied the legal
gentleman, " we lawyers must have long
heads." The barber proceeded about his
vocation, but at length exclaimed, " 'Why,
sir, your head is as thick as it is long j"
Blackstone winced.
O" "John," said a poverty-stricken
man to bis son, " I've made my will to
day." " Ah I you were liberal to me no
doubt." "Yes, I've coma down hand
somely. I've willed you the whole State
of Virginia to make a living in, with the
privilege of going elsewhere if you can do
better.
tW lie was a tramp. As he watched
the merchant pace his store with cast-down
eyes, be Bhook bis head. " Poor fallow,"
aid the tramp. " I feel for him. Note to
pay probably, and probably, ten cents to do
it with. Ah, gentlemen, fortune cannot
mile upon us all ; but I tell you it is a
precious thing to know how you stand
every (Saturday night. Ah, yes," he said
with a sigh, " poor fellow he is doomed to
bear burdens which we know nothing of."
