Other People.

All gamblers have been ordered to leave Columbus, Ohio. President Cleveland once did local writing for the Buffalo Courier.

Talmage has preached thirty years and has lost but one day, and that through sickness twenty-four years ago.

Colonel Lamont told Dr. Sunderland that if Ananias were a Washington correspondent he would be bounced for incompetency.

Senator Dolph says of Mr. Pennoyer, who has just been elected governor of Oregon, that he is a Democrat of the Cloveland variety.

A farmer in Condon, Neb., advertises for a wife, and specifies that she must be about six feet tall, weigh 250 pounds, have red hair, and be an atheist.

The President has promised to go to Chicago during tho summer, and told a committee from the exposition, which opens tlioro on the 3d of July, that he would give them one nay.

At the entrance of a restaurant in Pestli, where young ladies are employed, is posted a notico reading: "Gentlemen are requested to abstain from kissing the the waitresses on the stairs, as this is a fruitful sottrco of breakage and impedes the service."

Joe Jefferson is one of the wealthiest actors in the world. He only plays about sixteen weeks in the year, and this affords him all that he needs for his yearly maintenance, without at all impairing his capital. His fortune is variously estimated at from $400,000 to $600,000.

A tramp has confided to an Omaha reporter that in order that his hands may be calloused like those of a workingman he carries a hickory stick which he grasps and twists as he walks, thus keeping his hands in a condition to deceivo any justice before whom he-may be arraigned as a vagrant.

Dr. J. Milton Bowers, the San Francisco physician who was charged with murdering his wife, has been found guilty and sentenced to be hanged. His victim was tho third wifo who had mysteriously died, leaving him considerable property. His method was to give tho women phosphorous in small doses.

Stephen Kelly, of Philadelphia, is probably the only living man who ever had the pleasure of decorating his own grave.

Rev. llcber Newton mentions many instances of "visions" just before death, and treats them as possible evidences of spiritualised sight.

I low the whirligig of time changes men and things. At the close of the war. Parson Brownlow, then governor of Tennessee, drove his predecessor, Isham G.

Hie following is said to be the "official" explanation of the reason why Attorneygeneral Garland did not attend the president's wedding: At the death of his wife some years ago he made avow never to enter into aortal festivities again.

-I

THERE HAUT-hi SATURDAY EVENING MAIL

He has kept this vow, devoting the most of his time after office hours to the care and attention of his aged mother. He did not even attend the wedding of his son a year ago, although his son married with his full approbation. The story of his dislike to a dress suit has no foundation.

Thomas Cunningham, ah Englishman, while swimming at Fortress Monroe, was in danger of drowning a quarter of mile from shore. Dr. Irving C. Rosue, formerly surgeon of the arctic exploring steamer Corwin, was near him, and went to his rescue. "If you obey my orders," he shouted, "I'll save you. If you don't IU let you drown." Hie Englishman obeyed orders, and the Doctor towed him to the shore."

People in Fremont, O., of both political parties resent what they term the "raft of rot and rank falsehood" that finds circulation about ex-President Hayes and their feeling toward him "The R. B. Hayes known in these parts,' says a Fremont writer in tho Cincinnati Post, is a benevolent, cultured and courteous gentleman, heartily in sympathy with his neighbors, instantly ready with purse and voice to forward every wise scheme for advancing the nwerial interests of the town."
