THE CASE WAS DISMISSED.
Tbe Lawy**- from St. Paul Could Not Be
Contradicted.
In a certain village which rejoiced in the
possession of only one lawyer an action
was commenced before Justice S., and
W., the local attorney, retained by the
plaintiff. The defendant employed coun
sel from the county seat, but the return
day came and no lawyer appeared. De
fendant, in distress, was relating his woes
to a group of idlers on the lookout for fun
and mischief, when a stranger appeared
wearing a suit of black with silk hat and
fold headed cane. This was one A., a
"tree peddler" from a neighboring town, a
fellow of much versatility and acumen,
and withal considerable of a wag.
Some one of the group, seeing sport
abend, told the defendant that A. was
Judge X., a great lawyer from St. Paul,
and that if the judge could be prevailed
npon to take his case victory was sure.
To carry out the joke the defendant was
introduced to tho pseudo judge, and ex
plaining the situation besought his aid.
A. condescendingly replied that, although
be had long since ceased to practice in
these inferior courts, be appreciated the
hard situation of his would be client, and
would consent to undertake bis defense.
When ushered into the presence of the
court be was introduced to bis honor as
Judge X., of St. Paul. S., highly elated at
the honor of having such eminent counsel
appear in his court, at once called the cose.
A. arose, made a motion to dismiss, and
argued with great pomposity and at con
siderable length, quoting pretended de
cisions of the supreme courts of the United
States and the state of Minnesota, refer
ring to Blackstone and every other law
writer of whom he had ever heard, and not
omitting the most open and shameless flat
tery of the magistrate. When he con
cluded and sat down, W., the local coun
sel, arose to reply, whereat the justice
smote tbe table a thundering blow and
cried in a voice pregnant with righteous
indignation: "Sitdown, sir! That is Judge
X., of St. Paul. Don't you suppose he
knows the lawP What do you mean by at
tempting to contradict him? This case
will be dismissed."—Green Bag.

"'Tis right well! Ta-ra-raboom-de-ayl"
"Catch, Rudolph, and bless the talented
friend of your youth."—Truth.
Better Still.
"Nothing can make a woman so superla
tively happy as to have a baby of her own
to kiss," exclaimed Mrs. Mcßride raptur
ously as she fondled her firstborn.
"My dear," replied her husband pity

Impatient.
Sainte-Beuve, the great French critic,
having occasion to speak of what he
thought impatience on tbe part of an emi
nent theologian and ecclesiastic, brightens
his discussion and enforces his lesson by
telling a story of Alfred de Musset.
When the future poet was a small child
his mother bought him a pair of bright red
shoes. The maid put them on his feet and
made ready to take him out to walk.
Something delayed her for a minute, and
little Alfred grew impatient.
"Hurry! hurryl" said he. "I want to
start. My shoes will be too old!"— Youth's
Companion.
The Best Man.
She—Who wuz the bes' man at the wed
ding f
He —I link I wuz. My present cost to'

Laconic Letter Writers.
It is not often that so neat a compliment
can be conveyed in a laconic letter as that
which is credited to James Russell Lowell.
When Lowell's first wife died rumors were
rife as to his re-entering matrimonial
bonds with another lady. A friend of his
—a lady—took every possible opportunity
of correcting this report, which she be
lieved to be untrue. Hearing it so often
repeated, however, she began to think
there must be some truth in it, and made
up her mind to write Lowell and get at
the facts. She begged him to let her know
the true state of affairs—whether she was
to believe him a never-to-be-consoled hus
band, or after all, "just like any other
man." The answer was prompt and brief:
Dear Madam—Yours, like any other man.
Charles Dickens was usually the most
courteous of letter writers, but he could be
curt enough on occasions. An Oxford un
dergraduate took the liberty of sending
Dickens some of his poems, with a view to
insertion in "Household Words," of which
Dickens editor. With the verses ho
sent a note which ran thus:
Sin —Understanding that you Insert rhymes
in your serial, I send you tome.
To this Dickens replied:
Sin—We do not insert rhymes without rea
son.
The stage furnishes us with another la
conic letter. Quin had withdrawn to Bath,
soured by the triumphs of Garrick. He
desired to be asked back to Covent garden,
but Rich would not humor him. He wrote:
lam at Bath. Yours, James Quin.
And received the reply:
Stay there and he hanged. Yours,
John Rich.
Verbosity is the besetting sin of all offi
cial correspondence, so that a laconic dis
patch is refreshing.
W>. H. Crawford, secretary of the treas
ury, wrote to S. Dinsmore, collector at the
port of Mobile:
Treasury Department, I
Washington, Jan. 15,1823.)
Sir—This department is desiriouß of know
ing how far the Totnbigbee river runs up.
You will please communicate the information.
Respectfully, W. H. Crawford.
The reply reads:
Mobile, Fob. 7,1822.
Sir—l have tho honor to acknowledge the
receipt of your letter of the 15th nit., and of in
forming you in reply that the Tombigbee river
does not run up at all. S. Dinsmore.

Elephant on Toast.
The young man from the country took
his green necktie and his best girl into a
restaurant on Woodward avenue, and like
some young men when the girls are around
he was disposed to be facetious at the
waiter's expense.
"Waiter," he said, "bring me a broiled
elephant."
"Yassir," replied the waiter perfectly
unmoved.
"And, waiter, bring it on toast."
"Yassir. 1
Then he stood there like a statue for a
minute.
"Well," said the young man, "are you
going to bring it?"
"Yassir."
"Why don't you, then?"
"Orders is, sir, dat we has to git pay in
advance for elephants, sir. Elephants on
toast, sir, am $18,000.25; ef you take it wid
out toast, sir, it am only $18,000, sir."
The waiter never smiled, but the girl
did, and the young man climbed down.—

QUEEN OF THE SWORD.
An Expert with the Foils Who Is Still
Young; and Handsome.
Reina Jaguarina is the daughter of a
Spanish lady and her English husband, but
was born in Ohio, so she is a happy com
posite of races and very much a citizen, aS
her father lost his life in the war for the
Union. Owing to the Spanish system ol
property descents the mother's name waS
retained, and those who are "up in Span
ish" pronounce it "Hahwareena."
These are but preliminary facts. Hei
reputation rests upon tho fact that she ii
undoubtedly the best swordswoman in the
world and has few equals among men. Hei
admiring Spanish countrymen call hei
Reina della Espada, and a queen of the
sword she certainly is. At the age of nine
she begnn fencing to improve her health,
which was quite feeble; at thirty she is S
magnificent looking woman and has the
medals for several great victories. To a re
porter of The Globe in Boston, where she
has lately been giving exhibitions, shesaidi
"The contest I am proudest of was the one
fought with Sergeant Davis, a cavalry of
ficer of the United States army. It was
just after he got home from fighting the
Apache Indians under General Miles.
"He made the remark that he had
brought home several scalps and would
like to have mine. Well, he challenged
me to a combat and tried for it, but I still
have it. It was, I own uj), the hardest
work I ever did." P
The referee and judges joined in an ele
gant testimonial to Miss Jaguarina, certi
fying that she had scored eleven points to
seven scored by Sergeant Owen Davis.
Tbis was at the Mechanics' pavilion, San
JAGUARINA.
Francisco, Feb. 8, 1887. She had another
contest there with Captain E. N. Jennings,
of the Irish Hussars, in which she defeated
him, as she did six times afterward —three
times on foot and three times on horse
back. To a question as to her dress she re
plied: "Oh, dear, no; a woman could not
do anything in a habit. I wear riding
trousers and boots, spurs and all, and a
French officer's cuirass. This is of brass
to protect the body, and in it one can
neither bend to the right nor left, but is in
cased as in a vise. The riding is all done
by balance, and when one loses his bal
ance he throws himself, that tactic being
part of his training for cavalry work."
She carries a slight scar on her face and
two on her body as the result of her com
bats, and is withal a very refined and beau
tiful woman.
The Driver Was Fined.
William Muller, a New York truck
driver, was recently charged with cruelty
to animals. Joseph Proctor, driver of a
Ninth avenue car, said that while nearing
the corner of Fourteenth street on his tip
town trip Muller was driving a heavily
loaded furniture van through the street,
and notwithstanding he bad stopped his
car and turned his horses, the defendant
had deliberately run into the horses,
struck one with the fore wheel of his
truck, and when the animal struggled to
get up, having fallen, it caught its hind
leg in the hind wheel of the truck, and the
leg was broken. The driver was corrobo
rated by the conductor and a fireman who
happened to be passing at the time.
Muller, in his defense, said he was in a
hurry to get to the ferry and signaled the
driver of the car to hold up, but said he
did not do so, and the accident must have
been caused by his own carelessness. He
said he knew nothing about the breaking
of the horse's leg until he had reached the
ferry, when he was arrested. The court
believed the car driver and fined Mullei
twenty dollars.
The Spider and the Wasp.
The deadliest enemy the spider has is
the wasp. No spider has any chance at
all in battle with a wasp, for the latter is
mail clad and bites as hard as he pleases.
The spider cannot penetrate the hor.iy
covering of the wasp's body, while the
sharp sting of the winged fury will pierce
any place in the spider's tender anatomy.
Even the tarantulas of Texas and New
Mexico are afraid of the big red wasp ot
those countries that does not hesitate tc
pounce on one whenever it is seen, and
after stinging it carries it off to place in
the nest where the eggs have already been
deposited. The bodies of the spiders are
food for the young wasp, and one wasp
nest has been known to contain fifty spi
ders.
Stitches In His Finger.
Twenty-four years ago John Gilbert, a
Pottstown (Pa.) restauranteur, had one of
his index fingers mangled in a feed cutting
machine. The doctor sewed up the wound,
and it readily healed. Recently the fin
ger got sore, and an examination revealed
the ends of several threads. They were
the stitches that had been put there a quar
ter of a century ago. The threads wer ■
removed and the finger is healing.
A Lively War Record.
There is a veteran in the pension office
at Washington, Captain Thomas J. Spen
cer, who was present in forty-five battles,
was captured three times and escaped
twice, and saw the inside of seven Confed
erate prisons.
Novel Burglar Alarm.
The new subtreaitury building at Sun
Francisco has an electric burglar alarm
installed between the rows of bricks so
that any interference witli either the bricks
or cement will cause an alarm to sound.
She Committed Suicide.
Mrs. F. C. Cone, at Paris, left this letter:
"My husband—Forgive me if I osuse you trou
ble, but I suffer so. You do not know what
these long, wakeful, wretched nights are to
me, and I am so tired, darling—the pain will
never be better. It Is not easy to take my own
life, but I have been sick so long Good-bye,
my hnsband, I love you—your wl 'c." This is
bat one of thousands that give np, instead of
using Dr. Milea' Restorative Nervine, and being
speedily oured of their wretchedness. Go to
