ILL NYE STORY. The following anecdote appeared in the first number of the Book man and has just been reproduced in that magazine. Ii concern l:d ward W. Nye (Hill Nye), who made, we are informed, a short speech ai an author's dinner in London that was much relished by the bookmen present, including ihe publishers, ut whom it was in dirccilv aimed. "Just a year ago," he said, "1 was walking on the principal street of Indianapolis, when 1 met a man whose appear ance showed that he was reduced to the very depths of poverty. His clothes were ragged, his face un shaven, his hair long and matted and his feet unshod. As 1 passed him a look of recognition came into his eye. " 'Nye, old fellow, don't you know me? Don't you know Abel P. Jones, who was your classmate at college? " 'What, Jones! Is it really you? Well, well, what can I do for you?" " 'For heaven's sake, help me. I am starving. Lend me half a dollar. "I felt in my pockets. They were empty. 1 had no money myself. But a bright thought flashed through my mind. j " ' Abel, I can't lend you the j half dollar; I haven't got it. But ' look here. I'll tell you what I will do; I'll let you publish my next book.' j "Gentlemen, that was just a year ago; and this month Abel P. Jones sent me an invitation to go : to liurope wiih him in his steam yacht." ROOT'S ONION ILLUSTRATION Senator Llihu Root'sonion story told at a recent dinner, is an illus tration of the difficulty in conceal ing evil practices. "Take the case," said Mr. Root, "of old John Inideuin. John was a lawyer s contidetiti.il clerk, and lie had the pernicious habit of go ing to a neighoring saloon every morning at I 1 o'clock and taking a small glass ot whiskey. He was not proud of this habit; hence, af ter the whiskey he akays took a clove. ' "But one morning it happened thai there were no cloves on the bar, and John, after having con sidered the mailer, ate a small on ion from the free lunch tray. That would destroy the telltale whiskey odor, no doubt, as well as the clove had always done, and so thinking he returned to his desk, "It was a double desk. At it he and his employer sat face to face. John, on his return was soon aware that his employer noticed something. The man's nostrils quivered, he sniffed and finally with a grimace of disgust he broke out : "Look here, John, I've stood whiskey and cloves for 19 years, but 1 draw the line on whiskey and onions."

Bates, manager of the War Department telegraph office : "I'm like an old colored man 1 knew. He spent so much of his time preaching to the other slaves it kept him and them from their labors. His master told him he would punish him the next time he was caught preaching. " 'lUit, marsa,' said the old man, with tears in his eyes. 'I al ways has to draw infruences from Bible texts w hen dey comes in ma haid. 1 jes' cain't help it. Can you, marsa?' " 'Well,' said his master, 'I sus pect 1 do sometimes draw infer ences. Bui there is one text I never could understand, and if you can draw the right inference from it I'll let you preach to your heart's content.' " 'What is de text, marsa?" asked the colored man. " 'The ass snuffeth up the east wind." Now what inference do you draw from that ?' " 'Well, marsa, I'se neberheard dat text befo' nohow, but I 'spects de infruence am she got to snuff a long time befo' she get fat.' " Chronicle Telegraph. SUCH STUFF AS DREAMS.

W Msm BULLETIN Sir Frank Lockwood was de fending a man accused of swin dling and inan eloquent preroration talked of his much injured client as an angel of light. When Sir Frank had finished his speech his client whispered that he wanted to shake hands with him. "When first my solicitor told me what he was paying you," said the client, "I grumbled, but since 1 have been listening to you I have come to the conclusion that the money was well spent, and I apologize. That half hour talk of yours about me has done me good. It is many years since I have experienced the luxury of self-respect, and it is worth the money."
