OTHER PEOPLE.

It cost McKee Rankin $100 to strike the manager of the Toronto Opera House. Next time he should hit a cheaper man.

Talk about the Jersey man who took everything he could lay his hands on and even get away with a red hot stove here is a Kentucky man who stole four hives of bees.

The Academy finds fault with novelists who teach the rising generation how young gentlemen kiss their dancing partners in greenhouses and other secluded places. yf'-'y

A Philadelphia artist who has searched faratid wide for a facial expression which would Indicate fear, daring and mental suffering, all at once was seen one morniug rushing down the street shouting "Eureka!" Just in front was a young man taking his first public ride on a bicycle.

Down in Arkansas they call an ordinary man, who drinks but little, "captain." A colonel is one who can "stand the racket" pretty well and "general" is the title given to a man who must have "suthin" once in so often, or perish but the pickled old topers are all called "jedge."

The dime novel readers would rejoice in Buckshot Bill of Nevada. He speaks twenty-five Indian tongues, once saw eleven comrades burned alive by the Comanches, signed with his blood a vow to have the scalps of eleven Indians who killed his brother and stole his diamond pin, and has on exhibition one hundred and seventeen scalps taken by his own hands. He is a scout after the boy's own heart.

Those Ohio men have queer ways sometimes. The other day we read of a medical student who went to his father's farm on a visit, and took the corpse of a beautiful girl along with him to carve up as a diversion. Now we hear of a bridegroom at Muskingum putting on his hat and overcoat after the wedding, kissing the bride good-by, and going off without a word of explanation. That was three weeks ago, and he hasn't been seen since.

THE REPORT UNTR UE. Editor Mail: DEAR SIR The report in your last Saturday's paper from Demoines, Iowa, stating that my wife attempted to commit suicide, is an error. Mrs. Baldwin was very ill, delirious and raving with intense physical pain, and entirely by accident took an overdose of morphine, which came near ending her life. She is now home here, doing very nicely and after a couple of month's rest, expects to go with me to England, in September. Yours truly,
