In tlie Mazes of tlio Telegraph Poles. j A merchant coming home elevat ed, staggered against a telegraph pole.. . "Beg your.- pardon' said he. hope no offense,: It's rather dark, and the street Is very narrow, you gee." In a few minutes he came in eon- tact with another pole. "Couldn't help It, sir," said.he, lifting his hat. "X never, saw such crooked lanes as we have here in this city." Again he ran afoul ofn pole,, this time with a force that sent him backward to the ground. Look here, nelghboryounecdn't push a fellow doWnf because he hap pens to touch yoq ; the road is as much mine as yours, anu 1 have as much right here as you have, old stick-in-the-mud." . ... .. "Picked . himself up and made another effort toreivch home.: but hesoon came plump against another pole. , , 'ahan't make any more apolo gias," caid he; "if you get into the middle of the street ana stand,: in my way, that's your lookout, not mine." Proceeding on his journey again. and becoming angry and dizzy, he aeemed to be entangled in an in extricable labyrinth of telegraph poles, which leu him to make a general Hpeech. Oeiitlemen, you are not doing the fair thing. You do not. give a man a fair chance. You run from one side of the street to the other, right in my way.V Just , then he met a friend and taking him by the hand, he said : "There w a procession going along this street and every man is drunk; they have been running against ine all the way from the club.
