BOW highly «sto6Med clergyman, 1 The late Girard B. Allen, the St. Louis piimondwitnd philanthropist, carefully husbanded his physical strength in old age. He would ride rather than walk If he had only two or three blocks to go. "I consider," he said, "at my age that every step I take wears oat the machine just that much." young New Yorker now on a western ranch, engaged to a wealthy Brooklyn in a letter declares that things are not all rosy lu the greet and boundless west. He is working as a stable-boy, and is glad to find even this employment, though it pays but little more the cost of his board.
The Pittsburg Dlspatoh takes oocaslon to remark that "the man who can preserve a calm and unlmpaasioned demeanor while holding four acea, or who cam assume an air of self-satisfied confidence while bluffing with two deuces, may often be observed later in the even ing cautiously creeping up stairs in his stocking feet." Wj
H. H. Werner, the patent medicine proprietor, is at Saratoga. He ia a tall, vigorous man, with a gray mustache and goatee, and a bronzed, unwrinkled face He Is sbout forty-five years of age. His fortune is a large one, and he spend* his money freely. Like most great men he is an enthusisstlc fisherman.
This Is the way In whloh an old Call fornian views the here and hereafter: "My head is whitening, and I believe the next world to be beautiful but when my time comes to go to it, while I will obey the summons cheerfully, It will be with a feeling of wonder that God has wrought out elsewhere a better place than California."
A simple-minded .Nebraska farmer, guarding his melon patch with a shotgun, mistook his mother-in-law for a skunk and killed her. The calamity is in the highest degree pitlble, but there is nevertheless a suspicion in the neigh borhood, based on past domestic unpleasantness, that Hiram Schoonover, even at 10 o'clock at night, in a cornfield, knew a skunk from a mother-in-law.
A man*at Geneseo, 111., took sick the other night and sent his nephew out for some pills. The young man, finding the drug stores all closed and one solitary grocery open, entered and procured a handful of small white beans. When he got home he filled a pill-box in his room with beans and took them to his uncle. The beans were taken and proved quite efficacious, as the man recovered the following day.
A tony young man in New York City came reeling home the other night and the family let him go to bed under the impression that it was the usual drunk In an hour or so it turned out that lie had been stabbed and was reeling fro& loss of blood, and his case is a very serious one. Young men who come home drunk as a rule should promptly notify the family when they happen to be sober.
Aocording to Albany papers, families who would like to be thought to be away at Saratoga or Long Branch have im proved upon the old trick of shutting the front blinds and living in the back of the house. They leave their newspapers on the front stoop, apparently neglected but they take the papers in at night and read them, at the same time supplying the stoop with old papers for the next day's masquerade.
There is andertaker's clerk in Atlanta Ga.. who has a queer idea of fun. It has been his custom to drtisa himself in a shroud, lie down in an empty coffin, and then have a confederate get some unsuspecting cltlsens to come and help to meve him out. And then as the coffin was be ing slowly carried out he would jump out of the coffin, yell like a Comanche Indian, and laugh with delight at the terror of the carriers. But the other day some victims who didn't see where the fun came in, had him arrested, and he was fined. He is now trying to invent a less expensive joke.
A romantic marriage occurred at the Methodist Episcopal parsonage in Ed wardsville, 111., the other day. The con' trooting parties were Prof. James O. Duncan, of Vandalia, 111., a widower, and Mrs. Lillie W. Can-oil, a widow and teacher In Springfield, HI., formerly of Vandalia. The marriage Is a culmination of a series of coincidences in the life of the wedded pair. Rev. J. B. Thompson, who performed the ceremony, officiated In the same capicity at Prof. Duncan's first marriage Mid also at Mrs. Carroll's first marriage, and preached the funeral sermon upon the death of Prof. Duncan's wife, and was called upon to perform the last rites at the funeral of Mrs. Carroll's former husband. It wss this strange fatality of circumstances which induced the couple to seek again the services of Mr. Thompson.
