OTHER PEOPLE.

The Harpers pay Nast #200 a week. Judge Tourgee's new lecture is entitled "Give Us a Rest."

Guiteau himself says his name should be pronounced Get'-o. General Butler seems to be pretty well cured of the habit of running for Governor of Massachusetts.

Senator Davis is an Ohio man—by education. He hails from Kenyon. He was born in Maryland, removing to Illinois when a very young man.

Josh Billings says he wouldn't give five cents to hear Bob Ingersoll on "The Mistakes of Moses," but bo would give $500 to hear Moses on the mistakes of Bob Ingersoll.

The fact that Mr. Tilden is spending $75,000 ia the improvement of his residence in Now York gives rise to a rumor that he does not intend to occupy the White House at present.

The convicts in the Ohio penitentiary have sent $100 to the Michigan sufferers. They raised this sum by deuying themselves the luxury of tobaeoe and from the sale of trinkets which they made.

Ex-Govornor Evans, of Colorado, has begun several suits for libel against the Denver Tribune, and among the complaints is one that the paper referred to him as "a nice old rooster." While alluding to a man as an aged rooster may not be in good taste or pleasant to the party so addressed, it is doubtful if the expression is criminally libelous, espeeially when a complimentary adjeetive is used to qualify the remark. When the caso is tried the definition of the word rooster will be awaited with interest.
