poorly-clad girl entered a Danter 6

had fallen, there was less demand,
and other phrases of th klud. The
little maiden's eyes mica wuu
tears, and sh hesitated a inoniont
while threading her fingers through
her chesnut locks. She finally
threw herself Into a ctiair. "in
God's name," she gasped, "take- it
quickly." The barber, satisfied
wltli ti!3 bargain, was uuouv w
clinch it with his shears when n
gentleman; who sat half-shaved,
looking on, told him to Etqp." "My

How Ztck ('handler Got Even with
Etfecoc ConVihi;,'.
Chandler loves to boast of his
strength. I'pon this particular
occasion ho raised las arm over
thetablo.
" Sec. my mnscle," raid he ; " I
can lick any man of my f iw, any
where, if I am au old man; that
is because I am seieuced i'l tho
business. But I won't lick a man
unless ho is a gentleman. Now,
when a man tells dam lies about
me, my way is to go and lick him
if ho is a geutlcmun. Now look
at Don Pot (Piatt); ho tells dam
lies about mo. and I would lick
him, but Don Pot is 11U gentleman..
Gerrgo Townsciid I was going to
lick onco for tellitig a dam lie
about me; and I hunted for him
for over a week, but before I found
him I learned that he was 110 geu
tlcmun, and so his hide was saved."
Chandler's great hobby is his
skill ns a pugilist. Rosuoo Conk
ling is also a great boxer. He has
a private gymnasium in his resi
dence at Washington, where after
dinner ho invites his friends who
aro gvmuastically inclined for a
friendly littlo bout with gloves
Conkling is a very good amateur
boxer, nnd as ho is a very largo,
powerful man, lio generally lias it
his Own way with tho guests who
are bold enough to put tho glove
on with him. For some time it
was an open question between
Chandler and Conkling which was
tho better boxer of the two. Old
Zach would, after every dinner
party of which ho was a member,
calmly nssert that ho could Ink
anv man of his weight in tho Uni
ted States. One day last Waiter
Chandler dined with Conkling,
and tho latter inveigled tho great
w ar Senator into the private gym.
nasitim. The gloves wero donned
and tho two doughty champion
began to make graceful Senatorial
pauses toward one another, accor
ding to the most approved rules
of the P. K. The bout, however,
was of very chert duration. Old
Zach suddenly received a blow be
tween tho eyes which caused tho
lingo Senatorial form to go over
backward; his trusly legs failed
him, and then he sat down so hard
that tears camo out of his eyes.
It took four men to get tho war
Senator upon his legs, but ho
threw up the sponge nt once, with
out any further effort lo punish
Conkling. Tho only remark he
was heard to make was, "Dam
straugo," and "I'll fix him yet-"
"Conkling and Chandler wcro
much together in a social way,
and it was not long after the above
occurrence when Chandler receiv
ed another invitation to come up
to his houso and tpreiid his legs
undor, Conkling's social board.
Chandler sent back word thnt ho
regretted very much his inability
to bo present, but ho had n guest
at his house, a valued constituent
frow Michigan, nnd ho could not
leavo him. Conkling sent buck
word, " Bring your friend along."
With tills form of invitation Chan
dlcr consented to como up. Ho
brought his friend with him, and
introduced him as Mr. Howard, of
Detroit, Michigan. Howard was
a sad-eyed man, of diffident man
ners, who contented himself w ith
paying a very close attention to
tho themes of tho bill of fare, ra
ther than to join in the general
conversation of tho dinner table.
Conkling was iu great glco during
tho dinner. Ho told over and over
and over ngaiu the story of Chand
ler's discomfiture as a boxer, and
never seemed to tiro of asking
him what ho thought of his ability
to lick any man in tho V. States.
Chandler took all theso remarks
in an 'absent-minded way, as if,
suddenly, ho had becoino lifted
above gny such petty ambition of
considering himself a fino athlete.
After dinner Conkling led his
guests info tlio gymnasium for a
general smoke and chut.
" Come," said he. pleasant-, to
Chandler, "don't you want auolh
cr bant with tho glovos."1" nun
then Conkling laughed again in
his most, cheerful, lurkcy-gobblcr
stylo, as he put ou a pair of gloves.
"No, I don't want to box," said
Chandler; "but perhaps my friend
here would consent to uinuso you.
Turning to Mr. Howard, Chandler
remarked : "You box, do ion
not?" '
Mr. Howard fcfiil looked sod
cyed and abseiit-nij.dcd. He did
once know somci! ing about it.
but it wna such aloiig tinia ngj.
"Come, come," mud Conk ling,
"let in have a friendly bunt. I
won't hurt you."

slowly to put on a pair of gloves.
As ho w as drawing on the gloves
Chandler was observed to walk
dowu a little to the back ground.
A contented look was ou his face,
and every now and then h would
raise his huge right foot up under
his swaying voluminous coat t-iit
and give himself a congratulatory
kick, expressive of rapture.
Tho sad-eyed man now came
forward and tho round began.
Conkling was for proceeding at
once to knock his opponent down,
nnd he would have done so had he
not found great dilileuUy iu get
ting anywhere near tho sad-eyed
man. Tho affair culihiiiaicd by
tho sad-oyed man's enddenly rush

over likcablg tree, and rolled into
tho corner of tho room, where he
lay for a 11101m nt stunned by the
concussion. Ho was heard to fay
afterward that ho thought a house
had fallen on him.
Conkling hud enough of boxing
for oiico. Chandler niado several
pleasant littlo remarks about the
skill of his friend Conkling, which
wero not received in tho most
cheerful way. Judgo of Conk
ling's feelings tlio next day when
ho learned thut Chaudler hud
played a joko upon him by giving
Mr. Howard $100 to conic up and

Tho approaching publication. of
tho memoirs of I'liuc'o Talleyrand
was aunounced tho other day, but
it appears tlio reading public 1
not to be gratified with a sight of
them for twenty-two years yet to
come, owing to a rotnpact made
with his Into majesty XanolHii
HI. This n-tn'.c sovereign, desir
ing somo eight years ngo to know
what theso memoirs cont ained, re
quested that a portion of the man
uscript lihou'd be nent to him for
enual. Thi.i wna accordingly
done, and t'uo Emperor discovered
that the memoirs wero in flagrant
disaccord with tho Memorial ol
St. Helena, a fivt which w ex
ceedingly annoying to l.iin. He
sunt, therefore, for Baron Charles
do Talleyrand, grandson of the
Prince, and requested him to in
terfere with tho Valeticay family,
who were Prince Talleyrand's
heirs, in order to obli i 1 a further
delav in tho publication. It was
therefore decided upon that, in ac
cordance with the .wishes of the
Emperor, the memoirs t hotild not
appear till after another postpone
ment of thirty years. As this
took placo in lStiO, we have twenty
two years nioro to wait before
catching a glimpso of these very
interesting revelations, It was in
return for this concession on the
part of tho Vuleneay family that
Napoloon HI caused tho title cf
