New Yorker Would No! Build Horn
In Canadian Woods.
Ho was such a typical New Yorko
that ho seemed strangely out of plao
in tho queer littlo lumbor village wii:
up in the Canadian woods whore lib
duties as a lumber inspector called
him. And his talk, which was ever o
'the ponies" and tho race track
seemed oven more Incongruous in n
olace where the white men talked o!
"shorts" and "outs," "two by twelves'
nnd "silos" and all the rest of tlu
Jargon of a lumber mill. One day tlu
superintendent r the plant, who ha
taken a great fancy to the young Ne
Yorker, and who apparently loved t
listen to the Inspector's stories of ho
ho "won three hundred on Rosebc
and other profitable operations aga'.ns
tho ring, told him ho ought to lnve
some of his winnings In a piece p'
land near the mill, build a cottage an
bring his family up there for the sun
mer. The New Yorker looked at hit
In silence for & minute. Then he eject
ed a long stream of tobacco Juice and
ejaculated slowly, "What, build n
house here! Say, when I build a cot
tage it'll be at Coney, and it won't b
far from the track. That's as stralgb.'
a tip as you'll ever get."

GOLDFISH HAD CHARMED LIFE
Rescued from Sportive Cat, It Hac
Suffered No Harm.
An Englishman writes to a Londoi
newspaper: "I haT had for two yean
a goldfish which had survived the oc
casional accidents of defective wate
supply and the too Intimate compau
lonshlp of playful kittens. Yesterdaj
I missed her from her accustomec
place In the crystal bowl, and, panic
stricken, searched the neighborhood li
vain. Even the garden, unlikely spot
was desperately explored. Returning
I saw to my horror, In a corner of tht
house remote from the goldflsh room
the usually well-behaved cat toying
ith the escaped flsh. Rescue was thf
work of a moment. To my astonish
ment, on dropping the fish back Intc
the bowl, sh flapped her tins
breathed heavily and swam about w ith
her usual sangfroid."

Tramp Had Humor.
At the sidewalk of one of the feri)
houses In New York stood a police ve
hide, backed against the curb await
ing its load. Walking leisurely In the
center of the pushing, racing mob
from a landing ferry boat was a tramp,
all rags but placid of manner. At hia
side walked a bluecoat, who led hijj
to the waiting patrol wagon. As ire
tramp was about to enter he bethought
himself and standing on the waqon
steps he leaned far out to one side
and to tie driver he called In the
drawling voice of a bored boulevar
dlor: "Home, James!"
