"Oh, no, I'm not at all stuck on my "self. - This is a matter of business. I guarantee to do thus and so. I want ?you to "do the same." We chaffed him for a while, but see? ing how good natured he was, finally ; agreed-ihat if wo were stopped ancf he killed or drove the robber off we'd coma down with the per cent de? manded.

The latter fell on his hands and knees, crept swiftly un? der tho vehicle, used one of the wheel horses to cover him, and while tho trqbber was peering about to locate rhim; and at the same time warning fus hot-to leave the coach, the Clam [state mart rose up and sent a bullet ??plumb -through the fellow's head. He ran forward to finish his work, but the robber, was as dead as a ^erring.

For really gentle, girlish grace and ?efinement would you be apt tp look n tho neighborhood of tho notoriously ?ough and tough Five Points. Hardly. Tet here is a curiously contradictory ose. A professional gauibler, and rard politician, "a man of inflooence" n that quarter, had a pretty daughter.

A year ago she made iep debut as. an actress. Her father pad long^ been, a butt for printed ridl fcule, and so, when she was announced d act at a Bowery theatre matinee, fun ;as anticipated. But she acquitted leiself so respectably that nobody aughed at her, and tho affair was n?j; loticed by tho press. Well, I went ' st night to seo a beautiful and elab ato production of Shalcespearian Jomedy in a fashionablo Broadway p.eati'0, and there was tho Five Points rhl .enacting a dainty and cliflicuit [haracter in tlio nicest, neatest mau? ler imaginable.

Ill Fitting Clothes Made Him. j A, group of -well dressed and pros perous looking business men sat about a table in a famous downtown restau? rant after luncheon a few days ago, chatting ou all. sorts of topics and watching the smoke rings from their cigars float up to the frescoed ceiling. The conversation drifted after a.time Sto tales of business success, and the iest and most imposing member qi the party did his part by telling this story: . "1 owe my present prosperity," he began, "to the fact that when I was a lanky youth of 17 my clothes did not fit me. To be more explicit, I was at that age in dreadiully hard luck. My people were dead, I hadn't a friend thai 1 could turn, to, I was able to make hut $6 a week, and was halt starved in consequence, and my one sjjti (a.Oheap John riff) had shrunk until the lower edge of my vest, and the band of my irousers were absolute? ly divorced. <lOne Sunday morning in December I was trudging along Sixth avenue, principally because my room was Sven.mor? comfortless than the streets, anal remember how I was railing and repining at everything and everybody, I Was p?ssionately fond of music, and I yreht into the first church I came to, attracted solely, 1 must confess, by the thought of the warmth and har mdnyT would find. "I was too bashful then to sit still while the rest of the congregation stood, sol got up every time they did, and as my vest and trousers'werej as 1 told yoU before, not on speaking terms, I was forced to lean forward in a most reverential manner to hide my zone of shirt front. As I turned to go out at the end of the service an old gentleman behind me slipped a card into my hand and said: 'I like to see reverence in a young man. You look as if you were having a hard time of it. Come and see me to-morrow. I may help you.' "I went and got a good berth in bis employ, and from that I worked my? self to comparative wealth. Queer, isn't it?"?New York Times. A Hotel Experience. Ono day last week a guest at one of tho best hotels?it is perhaps just as well not to bo more exact?was awakened at an unearthly hour in the morning by a loud pounding on his door. "Who's there?" he asked. That is not jnst the way he put the question, but that was its general effect. ' 'Wake up!" answered a voice. ' 'It's 5 o'clock, and your train goes in forty minutes. "It doesn't. I'm not going on any train. Go away and leave me alone 1" This isn't exactly the language he used. As a matter of fact, it doesn't come within gunshot of it. But re? duced to Sunday-school English that is the meaning he intended to convey. "Come along, now; come along." continued the voice. "Hustle or you'll get left. They all swear just so when they're sleepy." "Get away from that door, youncr fel? low, or 1,11 break your neck," said the guest "I guess your wakiu' up now," said the Voice, cheerily. "Hurry up, or you'll miss your 'bus; she goes in half an hour." With that the voice departed. Its victim communed vividly and pictur? esquely with himself until he dropped off to sleep. He had no more than fairly entered the land of Nod before the voice was back again. "Hi, there? Ain't you up yet? Hump yerself now or you'll miss the train?' It wouldn't do even to hint at the wording of the reply. Suffice it to say tljiat it was so earnest, so forcible, sb circumstantial that even the bell boy was convinced that he had made a mistake. Again the voice departed, 1 and again the guest dropped off to sleep. Bang I bang I bong I It was the bell {)oy poundiner on the door again. The ^ajiguage of the guest was quite shock? ing to hear. "You needn't get mad," said the voice, pleasantly. "I ain't callin' you this time. I just come back to t?ll yOu you don't want no train, after all. Its the feller across the halL'^-Oo lumbus Sunday News. Jabber of the Case. "Hello 1" said the quad, as the com pp.threw him in; "you're a hard look- j ing-case, did you know it?" "No wonder," grunted the case; [ "I've been on the rack so long." "You seem to be out of form, too," remarked a thin space, from its box. "What if lam? Lead me alone 1" snarled the quad. "You're getting saucy," putin a hy? phen, as ic came alpng. "Tmnking of the galley left behind him, I sup? pose V* at which the other types gig? gled. "Til be dashed 1" cried the unlucky quad. "If you'd been locked up as long as I have" "I was 'just going to ask quad the matter was," inquired the period. "I thought perhaps you needed quoin." "Stop I said the exasperated quad. I've, comrna long way and I ?won't be nisultedthis way." Things began "to look squally, when the" compositor shook up the case and made them all behave.?Lawrence American._ Unfortunate Marston. Tho late Westland Marston is said to have been about the most unfortu? nate man of letters that ever lived in England. Misfortune pursued him throughout his life. He wrote poetry that was above the public, and prose that was too good for them. His Slays were persistent failures. En owed with great gifts and abili? ties he was hardly able to earn a poor living. In his domestic life he suffered bereavement after bereavement. His wife, his children, his grandchildren and his son-in-law successively died, leaving, him soli? tary, the last of his unhappy race. He bore his aff?ctlohs'with patience, but accepted death as a happy re? lease. Who. undej^'femUai' circum? stances, would not??Pittsburg'Bulle? tin.
