Churchill's Repartee.

A story is at present being told of Lord Randolph Churchill, which is given with due reserve. It runs that at Lincoln a rather noisy member of the bookmaking fraternity addressed his lordship as follows: “Glad to see you again, my lord: my name is Hopkins, but I bet you don’t remember me.” “You’ve won your bet,” was the quiet reply, and Lord Randolph strolled quietly away in an opposite direction. —Home Journal.
