Gen. Logan and the Barbers.

From the Chicago Herald. '•» “As to the clipping machine, sometimes we make mistakes and get it on the wrong customer. Once I was workin in the shop over at the Grand Pacific, and a tall, black hailed man, with swarthy skin and fierce mustache, came in. That was in 1880. He said I should trim his hair a little, and I said something about the machine. ‘The machine is all right,’ says h; ‘folks sholdn’t worry about the machine. It’s a good thing, and I believe in using it.’ Enough said, thought I, so I got out the clip, and had mowed just one swath through the black oak timber country on the back of his head when he turned on me and swore like a ninth ward aiderman. ‘Do you want to ruin me?’ he shouted. ‘Do you want destroy my individuality, my greatness, *nn’ make a common-look man out of me? Who told you to put that mowing machine on my head?’ ‘You did,’ says I, ‘and anyhow my advice to have your hair cut. You’ll look better.’ You impudent scoundrel.’ says he’ I wasn’t talking about that kind of a machine. My names Logan, Senator Logan, and if you touch me again with that thing I’ll skin you.’ Do you know that Logan believe his hair gives him political strength, as Samson’s hair used to give him strength in his arms? Well it is so, and he believes he’d hove got Grant nominate if I hadn’t cut that one swath. He wore his hair long at Springfield, and came out winner. Part it on this side?”

A Great Discovery. Mr. Wiliam Thomas, of Newton, la., says: ‘My wife has been seriously affected withacough for twenty-five years, and this .spring more severely than ever before. She had used many remedies without reliet, and being urged to try Dr. King’s New Discovery, did so with most gratifying results. The first bottle relieved her yery much, and the second bottle has absolutely cured her. She has not had so good health for thirty years.” Trial Bottles Free at F. B. Meyer’s Drug Store.

The Express had a call yesterday from Uncle Dan Rice, the “clown of our daddies.” Boys of twenty years ago who industriously carried water for the elephant to get a sight of the famous clown, would doubtless expect to now find in him an o] I and decrepid man, but there is nothing m Dan Rice’s looks or congeniality of spirits to indicate that he has Sown a day older in that time. e still claims a “homestead” in Texas—a tract of land on the Rio Grande, in Presidio county, and which was made famous some years ago, when, in a Pennsylvania court, Uncle Dan being on the witness stand, and being ask what was raised on his Texas land he promptly replied, “Comanche Indians.” It reduced the value of the land, he said but being under oath he had to tell the truth.
