I was. suspicious iof him from the beginning. He had a peculiar llook in his eye, and when he smiled and showed 1 la. double row of ivory that one would give five } years of hi-s life for, you would be thoroughly oanvigiced that underneath it all was a settled (purpose to rob you of your soul before he left you. I lighted a cigar, picked up my bag, and started for the d'^pot. "liold on boss 'till I light dis yer lantern, and I'll tote dat grip for yo' I waited until he had lighted his lantern- dld, bettered andi greasy—and altogether we .started. It was only a block to the station, and it was half an hour until train time, but I did not purpose to ^pend- that half hour in that hotel ii I couid heljp it. The memory o 1 a supper that was enough to break the rivets of a cast- uron oonrftkutLon otill haunted me—a horrible nightmare—in itdbif sufficient to drive a man anywhere. nightmare—in itdbif sufficient to drive a man anywhere. At the depot I found the iwual crowd of darky loungers—you always find them there, regardless of time or weather. Heme sat: propped up against the building, others lay at full length on the jplatform, sprawled out in all kinds of positions. Uesndes the door hung the old square depot light, three sides glass and one sidie tin, with a dirty kerosene lamp intcide it. It M eaidi that Dums^a pere inherited hi* great power of ima^'i>nation from his negro a.we.-itors. It must be true, for a dtarky is nothing if not imaginative, and i-or a crowd to get together i without trying to qee who can spin the biggest yarn is an im<pos:sibinty. This crowd proved r-o exception to thsi rule, and were in the thick ;of the fray when we arrived'. I did not w&i-t ,to cast a. hamper on their enjoyment, so retired into the shadow, seating myself on a truck, my ears open, and quietiy puffing my cigar listened. Fete joined the crowd, eittirg down on the edge of thf platfoirm. He raised up his old lantern, lie looked intently at the blaze a moment, as if for in^pi'ration, and set it down again. The subject under consideration was foot-racing, and a fellow whose name proved to be Mose had just finished! telling of a lightning sprinter he "Lnowed obei- in Loozianni." Pete turned v around and cleared' his -rsropi. The crowd settled back in re^p.^tful silence—they kne\ Pete. He gave one qua ;k took in my direction, then, turning his. eyes towards his fellows, said "You call him a runner. Bay! You don.'t know a runner if you seed' 'im.

T walked out of the shadow, up into the light, stood square in front of Pete, and looked him squarely in the eye. He nev5c moved. I took out iny cigar case—it contained but a solitary oigar-a good one I had bought in a m«mie«i. of absen|t-mi)nd!ed eKtravagance. I gave it to Pete and said nothing. He took it with a smile of innocence that would borrow a dollar at any place, and said: "Thanks, boss."

ISocial and Personal
I Social and Personal Since the introduction of the Rates Bill Mr. Chaplin, aiccording to "Ballyhooly," has been known in yachting circles as "the half- rater. iMr. Selous, who JW.3 figured so prominently in the stories of the Buluwayo flgiits and foraye is said to be highly (respected by the natives in the risen regions. One story, which it is interesting to recall, is that he has been known throughout South Africa as "the man who never told a lie. John L. Sullivan has been enlarging on the subject of Napoleon. Here are some of his sentiments"I admire a man who is at the head of his business. That's why I like Napo- leon. He did all the others fellows up, go >1 and hard. Napoleon was aid right. He was a very clever cha,p" Wiiat a proud moment for the shade of the Great Corsican! Sir Donald Smith, the new High Commis- sioner for Canada, is a native of Elginshire, but left Scotland at an early age to take a post U1 the Hudson's Bay Company. He is a leading banker and a railway potentate of Montreal, and has played a considerable part in the com- mercial development of the Dominion. The publication of a new Life of Sheridan, the greatest Parliamentary wit we have ever had. reminds us of several of his most famous mots and ironies. Perhaps his greatest was on tthe historical occasion when Burke flung the knife on the floor of the House. "But where's the Íurk asked Sheridan in a loud whisper to a friend. We have co-ne to the conclusion that Mr. William ^"atson is a born pessimist. His view of L\igland's utter degradation is noto- rious and likewise his view of Turkey's. •And now here he is vowing ir. his latest sonnet in the "Westminster" that Russia is "'Uh. fall'n indeed." Haa ho not a decent word to say for any country in (the world? The v;i«. one: who know everything are spreading the story that Mr. Balfour has got into the habit of talking aloud to himself. None of his remarks ace quoted, but it is believed that they have included some mystical references to "the whole time of the House." The cynics are drawing attention to the fact that since he defied the bold sprite Superstition as a leading menuber of tha Thirteen Club, Air. Harry Fumiss has besn a trifle unlucky. He l?ft "Punch," he failed' as "Lika Joko," he was unhappy with the "New Budget," and he is not exactly felicitous with his Parliamentary illustrations for the "Daily News." Curious,, is it not? Though English classics are generally a, >re- ciated' in Germany, the readers of the Father- land display a very slight interest in the English writers of the day. Kipling is the only one who has secured any appreciable attention, »nd even he is but a name to the general Germ.in public. it is singular that of American authors Bret Harte and Mark Twain arc widely popu- lar, and that the former is thought of "just as if he were a German." While in the country we waste our breath and our pens in more or less academic discus- sions about the New Woman, her realitv nd her possibilities, our r.ractioa.l eisters out Kansas way have gone to the heart of the question, j shown that they are "all there," and deter- mined to rule right along the line. They nave gained complete control of the important city of Ellis as the result of the late municipal elec- tions. They elected a woman for the mayoral post, and sent a member of the fair sex to every place on the city council. And yet some of us hereabouts claim that we are advanced. Why, we are leagues behind the times. In his "Sheridan: a Biogranhy," just pub- lished by Bentley, and containing a preface by Lord Dufferin. Mr. W. Frazer Rae reminds us that, o nthe occasion of the great trial at West- minster of Warren Hastings, Sheridan spoke for five hours and a half. Before this extror- dinavy Parliamentary performance the greatest efforts of Mr. Gladstone and of Mr. Sexton pale. A correspondent wriws that the oyster trade is now gradually improving once more. Next year oysters, it is anticipated, wili be cheaper, through an abundance in the supply of natives, than they have been for over ten years—as low probably as half a crown a dozeu. Dr. Bul- strode, by tho way, is stil lemployed in draw- ing up his report on the question of whether I oysters are ever responsible for typhoid.

Mr. i Blinks: "I can sympathise with you, sir, I married her mother." Probably a man never feels so small as when his wife comes- to him and save: "My dear, Johnny can't wear your cast-off dlothes any I more. They're too little for him." No," he said, I don't think marriage is a failure." "Are you a, married man?" asked a sad-eyed woman across t'he table. Not much; I'm a divorce lawyer." "Come, dear, kiss my cheek and make it up," she said forgivingly. "111 kiss it," he answered, but I don't think it wants any more making up And he was right. A case in point.—'Wade: "Do you believe, with these scientific fellows, that disease can be communicated by handshaking?' Butcher: "I dunno; there's the grip." Watte: "Do you think anyone can be as stingy as old Fox and be a Christian?" Potts "Oh, possibly. I should not be surprised to hear of the old man saving his soul merely from motives of economy." I Wife: "Henry, dear?" Husband: "Well?" Wife: "I \yant to make a bargain with you. If you will let me have E2 this afternoon I will let you do 93 worth of grumbling about my extravagance." "Doctor," said the sufferer, supinely, as he dropped into the dentist's chair, "my uerve is completely gone." "Oh, no, it isn t, was the tiheerful reply. "Wait till I get a firm hold, and you'll realise your mistake." He Agreed With Her.—Mrs. Sorapeleigh: "Bah! I've made a- different man of you since I married you." Mr. Scrapleigh "I belike you have. Very different, indeed. So diffe- rent that now I can't Gee v/hot m the world ever possessed me to marry you." It is recorded of a, young fop who visited one of the liothschilds >tha': he was so proud of his. n alaehitc sleeve buttons that he insisted upcn exhibiting them to his host. The latter looked a.t them and said: "Yes, it is a pretty stone, I hare a mantel-piece made of it in the next room." "How op earth did Hunker get out cf his engagement Avith Miss Eldoer after he fell in iov«> with Miss Scaddis ?" "It was done by a judicious selection of a hirthday present." '"What did he ,end her?" "He sent her a book entitled 'How to grow old gracefully,' and she tent his letters and ring back immediately." "You ought to take some rest," said the sympathetic friend. "Can't you go fishing, or something like that?" "Well," replied Mr. j Weary, "I'm going duck-hunting pretty soon." "Where?" "Up Bold-street.

"If she is anxious to marry and marry well, from the point of view of society, I suppose; she would prejoare her- self as she would for a profession ?" "Cer- tainly." "There are some things that she should cultivate asstiduously, and others to which sbs need devote little attention?" "There are." "Well, what would you advise lwr to cultivate particularly ?" "A wealthy relative who is likely to die soon." The question of umpires' decisions recalls an occasion when Shrewsbury was given out by a palpable mistake on the part of the umpire. A friend went up to him and said: "I say, Shrewsbury, I feel wild about that beastly, un- fair decision." "Aren't you angry?" "011, no," replied Arthur, smilingly. "It is true, I ought not to have beou given out, but there are many occasions en which I have been given in when I ought to have been out. You can't get infallible umpires, a.nd I hnd that the bad luck and good ars evenly balanced." "I say, old man, whatg that awful row going on next door?" "Oh. that's the Omphale Club.

From Far and Near
From Far and Near Coffins of heavy plate-glaes, hermetically sealed, are being used in America.. It is said they are more sanitary than the other kind. Chess-playing is popular with the members of the House of Commons. Lord W ark worth appears to be one of the best players. A Bond-street tobacconist has made the curious, and somewhat interesting, statement that J615 of his weekly cash comes from lady- lovers of the weed. There is at present both in England and Wales quite a number of emissaries from the French army, who are purchasing horses at all the fairs. The animals are for remounts. Our Colony of Victoria is a great butter- producing eomriLimity. Showing thfi' rapid development of the industry resulting from care taken in exporting a first-class article, the following figures may be quoted Amount of butter exported from Victoria. 1889 826,821 lbs. 1890 1,700,556 „ 1891-2 4,791,613 1892r3 8,094,255 „ 1893-4 17^140,980 t1 1894-5 25,986,447 „ A large additional number of new creameries and butter factories are being built through- out the colony, and next season will witi^esa a very great expansion of exports. In connection with the new train de luxe between Ostend and St. Petersburg, the In- dependance BeIge" points out that with the completion of the trans-Siberian Railway in 1900 the tour of the world in 30 days will be- come an accomplished fact. The timee of transit between London and St. Petersburg will be 45 hours, the journey to Port Arthur being performed in 250 hours. From here the steamers of a Russo-American Company now in course of formation will convey the traveller to San Francisco in seven days, whence ten days will suffice for the return to PI——!—" 111 London. The entire fare is calculated' to cost from B50 to JE80. Miss Brown, one of the Camberwell guar- dians, is evidently a strong believer in the custom, of taste and try." She made a surprise visit to the workhouse one day, and tasted the soup given to the inmates. Not liking the look of it, she took a sample in a small mug, and produced it at the next board meeting with the request that the guardians and the pressmen present should smell and taste for themselves. But no one would taste, and even tlhe chairman declined to act as taster for his fellow guardians. Evidently Camber- well guardians have little belief in the ex- cellence of parochial cookery. Another item from Louisiana shows how the negroes are practically disfranchised. On the day w'hen all men had to register, if they wished for votes, 300 armed men took posses- sion of all avenues of approach to the registry office at Palmetto, and announced that any black coming near would be killed. Not a negro came, and they have all lost their votes. Not satisfied with that, the white mob pro- ceeded then on a punitive expedition, flogged several negroes unmercifully because they 'had registered early in the day before the armed party arrived, and wound up by shooting a couple of them. So much for United States civilisation!
