Other People.
Oscar Wilde says he writes his poems on an empty stomach. Most fellows use paper instead.
A Lowell barber is called the Mayflower by his boss because he's the fastest cutter in the shop. -3
Jerome Increase Case, the owner of Jay-Eye-See, is worth $5,000,000, and began life as a blacksmith.
Mr. J. T. Trowbridge will persist in running his tricycle on the sidewalk in violation of an ordinance, and the Arlington police say, "Oh, he's one them literary fellers, and it ain't no use to say anything to him about it."
A Boston cab company supplies those who order vehicles from it by the month with "carriages having any monogram and coachman in any livery desired." It will not be easy after awhile to pick out the real swell from the crowd.
Maxwell, the condemned murderer, who is awaiting execution in St. Louis, is said to have become completely unnerved, and to show in every movement his distress. He rolls and tosses all night, talks and starts in his sleep, and is said to be haunted by a vision.of the murdered Preller.
Seven thousand dollars in silver, the proceeds of a fair, were being taken to the bank at Mount Pulaski, 111., recently when the horses ran away, the wagon was overturned, and the money scattered in the street. Citizens gathered it up, and when counted at the bank there was but 60 cents missing.
Joseph Jefferson has always* held the reputation of being as fine a story teller off as on the the stage. Those who have been obliged to accept this?legend on faith will have an opportunity of refuting or corroborating it soon, as he is about to publish his "Reminiscences."' He is reported to have said that the incidents have already furnished him many a laugh.
A Chicago minister lately declared in a sermon that nineteen-twentieths Nof the business men were professional liars, and not one of them could hope to inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Next time he goes for a suit of clothes he will innocently ask if the cloth is all wool, the same as if he didn't know that cotton was mixed in, and he'll take their word the same as before.
Tho Presbyterian young folks of Canan(laigua held a corn festival the other evening. The decorations of the room were of corn stalks, corn was cooked in every style known to Ontario county, there was singing of "Cows in the corn" and "When the Corn is Waving, Annie, Dear," a young man played the corn-et, "Blessing tho Corn Field," from "Hiawatha," was read, but not a drop of corn juice could be had for love or money.
A stranger in Wheeling went intoasaloon and found a lot of young fellows playing at a new game. A bit of paper was fastened to the wall, each player in turn was blindfolded and turned about three times, and then tried to walk up and touch the paper. The man who touched furthest from the paper was to pay for the drinks. The stranger joined the game, and^ when he had jabbed at the paper and pulled off the bandage, found that the other players had fled. He couldn't see the joke until later, when he discovered that his pocket had been picked.
Adirondack Murray has swung around the circle and is back in Boston again, not as a clergyman but as a reader. He began on Wednesday evening in Tremont Temple a serios of readings ftoin his own writings, and prefaced it by disclaiming all ecclesiastical pretentions, saying that he had done trying to reform the world and was now trying to entertain it. Mr. Murray, it is said, looks very much as he did when he preached in Music Hall, except that there is a tinge of gray in his hair and moustache.
When Senator Sawyer started west from New York at the age of thirty, with £2,200 in his pocket, he chanced to borrow $1. from his brother. "I met my brother in New York a year or two ago," he savs.
He had not prospered as I had, and was just then looking around somewhat anxiously for $1,200 in order to meet an impending obligation. He spoke of it to me and I gave him the 91,200. We had both forgotten about the dollar he had loaned me so many years before. But I afterward remembered it, reckoned up my fortune, found that every one of my original dollars had brought me in $1,800, and sent him a check for 1600 with a letter telling him to add it to the $1*290 Che gains of that borrowed dollar."
