" A few evenings sinee one of the drinkists stepped up to lardenbrook & Wolf’s bar and told Abe he had the tooth-ache and wanted a drink. Abe’s fuce&mdhully lengthened out, as he politely informed him it was after nine o’clock. The gentleman disappeared and in a few minutes returned and dropped a bottle behind the counter, remarking, “IHere, is your —— bottle, I don’t want it.” Again he was off like a short, leixx‘illg our barkeeper in utter bewilderment as to the meaning of this strange behavior. But Abe's curiosity prompted him to follow and inquire what his customer wanted. “Why, fill it. Don’t you know mothing ?” was the suggestive response. : : 'The bottle was then filled with water, to which was added a little raspberry syrup to give it 'color, and returned to the thirsty customer, who gladly received it and paid the price demanded (30 cents) ,wit{l. manifest delight. ° ' - - Not many minutes had elapsed, however, before the bottle was again returned. The triek had been discovered, and now the customer’s physiognomy had‘nq‘ trace of pleasure.— The bottle was again thrown behind the bar and-thé customer took his final departure, saying “Take your (l——?\—~11 whisky, I don’t want it. I thought something was wrong.” <

Grant’s staff. Ile visited nearly all the petty Dukes and Princes in Germany; armed with forged credentials, and collected large sums, which he - announced were to help. build a gigantic monument in memory of the soldiers killed during our Civil War. One day, however, he arrived in the Duehy-of Anhalt and solicited an atdience with Duke Leopold, who happened to have an American Secretary, Mr, Beselin. The latter suspeeted the 'solicitor, and held him until he had telegraphed to Mr. Bancroft, who at once pronounced him to be a swindler. He was placed under arrest. He turns out to be an Irishman, named Beatty, who has long lived in the Western States. It is not probable that the United Stateswill trouble itself about him, however. The little Dukes and Duchesses whom he has fleeced can do what they please with him. :
