after he had reached the age
when he could safely indulgo them,
wore quite unconcealed. They may be
thought to be referred to In Kipling's
sprightly sketch, "Mrs. llauksbee Hits
Out." which is of the period when
Ixml Dufferln was viceroy of India.
That this tendency on the part of the
noble spouse was the subject of amiable
banter by Lady Dufforln la attested
by a reminiscence of their sojourn
In Rome, when Lord Dufferln
was British ambassador there.
There had been during the night a
shock of earthquake in Rome, whlcn
naturally formed a topic at the ambassadorial
dlnnor table next day. It
turned out that every one had felt the
shock except tho ambassador, who had
slept through it. "Oh, well," observed
a guest, "the Inst trump would not
waken Lord DufTerln." "No," assented
the marchioness, and added thoughtfully,
"unless It huppcned to he the
queen of hearts."

One morning last week she thought
sho smelled gas. Bravery came to her

called Mr. C., then shook him and at
last aroused him. Then this was
heard:
"John, there's a leak In the gas pipe
in the kitchen. We'll all die if it la
not fixed."
Leaks had been heard of before, and
Mr. C. sleepily nsked:
"Is it a-'enklng much now?"
"Nut much!" screamed his wife, and
then as Mr. C. turned over, this soothing
advice was given:
"Put a bucket under it and come to

Courtesy Shown a Poor IUlud Colored
Man In a Htroot Car.
reople are so busy nowadays they
have often not time to be polite, and a
considerate act at once attracts atten
tion. There was such an occurrence
a few days ago in a 4th avenue car.
Among the passengers was a blind
negro. His clothes were the veriest
rags and were held to hl3 emaciated
frame with pieces of wire and bits of
string. A brcom 1 - idle served a3 a
cane. Over cno shoulder waa suspended
a gunny sack, giving him the appesyance
of a cotton picker.
He continually picked at ono hand
with the fingers of the other, as
though he were playing the banjo,
humming softly to himself the while
and patting his foot. As his fnce was
wreathed in smiles?not a grin?all
eyes were turned in his direction.
Many of the passengers looked at htm
regretfully when the ear reached Stanton
street and he arose and made his
way toward the door.
The hour was a busy ono on the
Bowery. People wondered whether the
old man wculd reach the sidewalk in
safety. A young man standing on the
rear platform did more than wonder,
however, for he alighted and guided
the negro safely to the sidewalk. He
then as rapidly as possible ran after
tbo car, which was disappearing down
Ho efrnt?*
Several of the passengers who had
noticed the Incident called on the conductor
to stop the car, but as he did
not do so one cf them rang the boll
violently, and the motorman reversed
the lever and brought the car to a sudden
stop.
As the young man climbed on the
platform, says the New York Times,
many smiles of approbation were cast
in his direction. But he seemed to be
almost, ashamed of what he had done,
and lie pulled his hat down over Ills
eyes and continued his ride in alienee.
Tlimt Word "Get,"
Professor Glbbs says, "There is no
word In the English language capable
of performing so much labor In a clear,
intelligible sense as the verb to get,"
and Dr. Withers gives a specimen of ita
capabilities as follows: "I got on horseback
within ten minutes after I got
your letter. When I got to Canterbury
I got a chaise for two, but 1 got we*
through before I got to Canterbury,
and I have got such a cold as I shall
not bo able to get rid of In a hurry. I
got to the treasury about noon, but
first of all I got shaved and dressed. 1
soon got into the secret of getting n
memorial beforo the board, but I could
not trot an answer then* i ??
intelligence from tho messenger that I
should most likely get one next morning.
As soon as 1 got back to my Inn
I got my supper and got to bed. Whon
1 got up In the morning I got my breakfast.
and then got myself dressed that
I might get out in time to get an answer
to my memorial. As soon as 1
got It I got Into the chaise and got to
Canterbury by 3. and about ten time I
got home. I have got nothing for you,
and so adieu."
