Judge Black, of Pennnylvanla, tolls a comical story of atrial In which a Ger man doctor appeared for the defense In a case for dnmages brought against a cli ent of his by the object of his assault. The eminent jurist soon recognized lu the wltue9s,who was produced bs a medi cal expert,a laboring man who some years before,and in another part of thecountry had been engaged by him as builder of post and rail fences. With this cue he opened his cross-examination. "You say, doctor," he began with great defer ence and suavity, "that you operated upon Mr. 's head after It was cut by Mn V" "Oh yaw," replied the ex-fence-build-er; "me do dat ; yaw, yaw." "Was the wound a very severe one, doctor?" "Enough to kill him, if I not save his life." "Well, doctor, what did you do for him?" "Everything." "Did you perform the Cn?sariau opera-' tion ?" "Oh, yaw,yaw; If me do not do dat he die." "Did you decapitate him V "Yaw, yaw; me do dat too." "Did you hold a post-mortem examin ation'!"' "Oh, to be sure, Schudge ; me always do dat." "Well, now, doctor" and here the Judge bent over in a friendly, familiar way "tell us whether you submitted your patient to the process known among medical men as the post-aud-rail-fenclorumr"' The mock doctor drew himself up indignantly; "Sherry I'lack," says he, "I alvays knowed you vas a tarn jay hawk lawyer, an' now I know you are a tarn mean man." Where the Difference Was. A good story is told of comedian Joe Murphy. It was during the "blue ribbon" ex citement, and Joe was journeyiug to a small town in the vicinity of Pittsburg. As the train steamed into the depot, it was boarded by a half dozen men, who, . after a hurried conference with the conductor, approached the comedian with beaming faces. "Mr. Murphy' I believe," said the spokesman, hat In hand. "At your service, sir," replied Joe. "Delighted to meet you, sir. We are the committee appointed to take you in charge," and they fairly dragged the astonished Joe from the car, placed him in a carriage, and they were whirled swiftly away. "God bless us," thought the exponent oflrish peculiarities. "This is very kind. Never was in the town before. A man's reputation does travel.and that's a fact." In a short time they reached the ho tel, and the committee having placed Joe in the best parlor suite, prepared to depart. "We will call for you after supper, Mr. Murphy," said the spokes man. "One moment, gentlemen," cried, St. Joseph,as be pulled the bell-chord vigor ously. "Waiter, drinks for the party." "Drinks V" shrieked the conclave in a chorus. "Mr. Murphy ,are you rjoad?" "Mad," echoed Joe ; not a bit of It. Name you i beverages, gentlemen. "Oh, this is a terrible backsliding," said one, "Francis Murphy ordering drinks." "Francis Murphy," repeated the per plexed Joe. "I am Joe Murphy the comedian." They saw It all and rushed wildly from the room in search of the temper ance apostle who was even them toiling painfully from the depot on foot, "tot ing" a huge carpet bag. Both the Murpbys drew large houses that night. eELr"0 Granny I" cried Tommy at the top of his voice, "I just seen the biggest ant ! It couldn't begin to get into that door." Granny was duly excited, but not so much so as when Tommy told her it was an eleph-ant. gjrA tenant had be n importuned so frequently for his rent that In a climax of exasperation he turned on the landlord with the cogent and conclusive retort ; "Now, you needn't put on so many airs, old man. Why, I owe enough in this town to buy up all your old houses." Crlt must be gratifying to parents to know that their boys have so perfectly acquired Latin that they are able to use it Id ordinary discourse. Two of them were one day engaged in pummelling each other.when a third cried out, "Sov et timm, Romeo!"
