WHY SHE CAME To LITTLE RoCK. -Recently passers-by noticed a woman standing on the corner of Maine and Fourth streets. She wore an old sunbonnet and her dress indicated adversity. A gen tleman, moved by the spirit of charity,approached her and asked: 'Are you alone?' 'Yes.' 'InI distress ?' ' Yes.' 'Have you applied to the author ities?' 'Yes.' 'Won't they help you.?' 'The chief of" police says he will do all he can to assist me.' 'Have you a family?' 'Yes.' 'Vhiere?' 'Texas.' 'fow long have you been in Little Rock ?' 'OGot here this afternoon.' 'What is the nature of your dis tress ?' 'Why a confounded fellow down in Texas fooled my daughter, stole my mule and came to this town. I. didi't miidi his foolinlg 'Riah so -much, hut the thought that he's3 got that mule goes through me like a darnin' needle.' The man let a iickel fall back in)to his pocket and strolled away. _l1ow1 many drams make a pint ?' asked a school teacher. 'Four,' yelled a boy. sprinuginrig 'I ow do you make that ?' ask ed the astonished teacher; the table says ittakes 128.' 'Well, it dol't take but I'our at our' house, 'cause I oftenheard ma say that whlen sheo w anted to miiake a pint vihi the old mIa, she gave,. him about four drms and thenl he was solid.'
