THE KING AND THE QUEEN
THE QUESTION IS WHICH WAS
CRAZY 7
A nail Held at a Lunatic Asylum
How a VonuK JournaliHt Was
Uadlv Fooled and Also Played
The Fool.
Wot loisiiicoa ball was given at a
lunatio hospital. Many friends of the
inuiatc3 were present, and also friends
of the governor. Among them was a
well known young journalist. He had
the most difficult time imaginable to
pick out the sane from the insane. Fi
nally he saw a young woman close to
him. He brushed by her by mistake,
and begged to be excused. She readily
forgave him, and then asked if he were
not the king of the Cannibal islands.
The journalist readily replied that he
was, nud asked if the young lady were
not the queen. Then followed the fun
niest conversation. Ho began telling
her of his dominions and of the pres
ents he would purchase for her. Ho
would give a golden throne studded
with diamonds, all her dresses should
come from Worth's and she should have
tho best French chefs for cooks. Then
he described his new palace. The
description wag ornato in the extreme.
This couplo talked in this way for at
least an hour. Then they separated,
the young lady being claimed for
waltz.
"Sad case that," quoth the journalist
to one of the board, as the young lady
went waltzing with her escort.
"Sad? What is sad about her?"
"Oh, haven't you mot her? Well, she
thinks she is tho queen of the Cannibal
islands and that I am her king."
"Some one has been guying you," said
tho heartless governor. "She is no moro
crazy than you are."
This was the sad caso. A friend of
the young lady had informed her that
the young journalist was as crazy as a
loon. They said, however, that he was
hanuless, and all that should be done
was to humor him into the belief that he
was the king of the Cannibal islands.
The king and queen were not on speak
ing terms for the rost of the evening.
London Tit-Bits.
A Definition.
The difficulty of defining certain very
simple words is known to no one better
than to the makers of dictionaries. The
word "life" has bothered definers a great
deal; and one lexicographer was unable
to do any better, in making his diction
ary, than adopt a schoolboy's definition
of the word. "What is life?" asked tho
schoolmaster. "Being alive," answered
the hoy; and the lexicographer put it in
his dictionary as his formal definition of
the word "tho state of being alive."
Tho most elaborate scientific defini
tion of the word does not define it bet
ter, because men of science do not really
know what lifo is. In a certain text
book of science, used in a great college,
the definition of tho word was the fol
lowing: "Life is that property residing in an
organism by means of which it is en
abled to appropriate materials from
other organisms, and assimilate them to
its own structure."
There was in tho class which was go
ing over this subject a youth to whom
an understanding of this formidable
definition was utterly impossible. He
was called upon, one day, by the pro
fessor, to tell what life is.
The student struggled hard to recall
tho definition, which he had laboriously
committed to memory. But it had now
utterly gono from him. Ho was not the
youth, however, to sit down without
making any answer at all; so he boldly
said:
Life, professor, is all a fleeting
show."
He said it so sincerely, and the answer
seemed to reflect bo faithfully his feel
ings at tho time, that the professor
smiled and said:
"I don't know but that is as good a
definition of it as any." Youth's Com
panion. A Solemn Joker.
An Indianapolis society man played a
mean trick during tho sleighing season,
and the young lady hasn't spoken to
him since. They had been old friends
for a long time, and it was natural that
they should carelessly drive away from
the madding crowd on Meridian street
and explore the country roads. After
they had gotten out about three miles
awav from anywhere, the gentleman
startled his companion by suddenly
looking her m the eye and remarking:
'Miss Nellie, we have been friends
for a long timo, and I know you have
perfect confidence in me. But here we
are, far away from everybody, where no
one could hear you if you should cry
out"
The frightened young woman was on
the vorgo of springing from the sleigh,
but she was even more astounded than
frightened, and before she could gather
her wits he continued:
"Now, Miss Nellie, I want to beg of
you the privilege of one sweet smokel
May 1 light a cigar?" And he never
even smiled. Indianapolis Journal.
As Gobblers Do.
Tho pulpit manners of clergymon are so
exempt from frank public criticism that
many a minister continues all his life in
faults of delivery that he might have
corrected had he been plainly told of
them. In one such caso a little girl was
instrumental in curing a famous Amer
ican preacher of an atllictingly pompous
air.
His habit was to pause at the end of
each division of his discourse, look im
pressively upon the pews, take a breath
so very long that it seemed to increase
his size, and then go on with an air of
the utmost importance.
One Sunday this good man paused
after his "tenthly" for an unusually long
time. Little Jane, who had been trying
to keep awake, moved as though greatly
relieved.
But the clergyman had not finished.
He was about getting ready for another
"head" whon little Jane audibly whis
pered, "Oh, mamma, he's going to blow
himself up again! 'Youth's Companion.
Serenity.
It takes a great deal to disturb the
even tenor of certain well ordered and
serene minds, in illustration of which
tho following incident is given:
An old lady living in a- certain New
England village was going down a flight
of back stairs when she fell and went
rolling to the very bottom of tho stairs.
Where Bhe burst open the door and came
rolling out into the kitchen.
Her Bervant girl, Jane, screamed in
Affright, and various members of tho
family came running into the kitchen
breathless with alarm.
Before any of them ppuld speak
tv. .;!e oiti muy unea nerseir to a Mu
ting position on tho floor and, holding
one i!: ; ;tT up warningly and sniffing at
tl:o nir, wiid calmly:
"Jane, them biscuits in the oven nro
burning and I know it!" Wide Awake.
War In the Future.
Commandant of Fortress (A. D. 1002)
Is the horizon clear?
Sentinel (at the telescope) Yes; but
onr friends on the planet Mars have sig
naled us that a fleet of balloons has just
started in this direction from a point
about ninety-eight miles to the north
east.
"How long has it taken the message to
reach vst
"At Mars' present distance from the
earth, sir, it requires about seven min
utes for the light to travel from there to
our planet.
"Then those balloons have been on the
way fourteen minutes already. They
ought to be in sight. (Shouting through
the electro multisonons speaking tube.)
What ho! Within there! All hands!
Turn the 40,000,000 candle power electric
burning glass toward the northeast!
Bring out the aluminium aerial rams
and have the flying torpedoes in readi
ness on the elevated platform! Lively
now! Is it all doner
A Thousand Voices (through the elec
tro multisonous tube) It is, sir!
"Then turn the balloon proof hood
np over the fortifications. Is that done?"
"It is!"
"Then everything is ready. Let the
enemy come on." (Yawns.) Chicago
Tribune.
flow Waterloo Was Lost.
The enemy had been minding on onr
left of course it was Bonaparte's left,
but we were pleased to call it ours for
two hours, and it was getting tiresome
The little corporal had just finished
breakfast and was picking his teeth in
tho reading room of the hotel when he
noticed tho condition of affairs.
"Send some artillery over there," he
thundered without a moment's hesita
tion. Fifteen nunutns later an officer with
mud in his hair dashed frantically into
the presence of the great captain.
"Sire, he exclaimed, "the artillery is
stuck in the mud.
The emperor bowed politely.
"And, sire, it cannot bo dislodged un
less the teamsters are allowed to swear
at their horses."
His majesty looked interested.
-"Sire, are they permitted to so swear?"
Bonaparte shook his head.
"No, I think not," he quietly observed.
"Guess they'd better not. It would ex
cite unfavorable comment. I'd rather
be right than to keep my job, don't yon
know. Death before dishonor, so to
speak."
And so Waterloo was lost. Detroit
Tribune.
Loved Ills Neighbor.
Occasionally public speakers will focus
their attentions on one individual in the
audience on whom, for illustration's
sake, their remarks seem to be wholly
and specially addressed. It is safe to
say that the good man who figured as
speaker to a western audience in the
present instance was very much sur
prised at the literal application of his
text.
"You must remember," he said at the
conclusion of his sermon, "that the
Good Book commands you to love your
neighbor as yourself."
At that moment a big lout jumped up
in a back seat, and twirling his hat in
his hand shouted:
"I do, mister; I love her a heap better
than myself, but she's gone an built
nine foot fence betwixt our lots, an she
says she'll set the dogs on me if I cliinl
up or look over
The singing of the doxology drowned
further remarks. Detroit Free Fress.
Not Much Better,
If one makes a slip of the tongue,
through embarrassment or haste, it is
generally best to let it go rather than
call attention to what might otherwise
havo been almost unnoticed.
A young clergyman, newly settled
over a large parish, had occasional fit9
of embarrassment when standing before
his congregation.
One Sundoy, after reading a notice of
a woman's missionary meeting to be held
in the chapel a few days later, he en
deavored to add a special appeal of his
own for a largo attendance.
After stating that it was to be a meet
ing of great interest and importance, he
said, "We, tho women of this congrega
tion" With a flushed countenance he stopped
and retraced his steps.
"We, who are the women of this con
gregation," he began.
This was no better, and he beat a
blushing retreat by saying, "Let us sing
the 401st hymn." Youth s Companion.
Plenty of Flowers.
The Rev. Dr. Cuyler was seventy
years old a few days ago, and received
gratifying tokens of regard from many
friends. The drawing room and study
were fragrant with roses and flowers
and were a bower of beauty. It oc
curred to some one to bring a faithful
servant who had been knitted by inter
est, association and affection with the
life of the household through years of
tender and trusting service up to the
drawing room to see the evidences of
the loving remembrance in which the
good man was held. She examined the
gifts with great interest, and expressed
her delight in these glowing words to
Mrs. Cuyler, "I tell you, ma'am, tho
doctor couldn't have had more flowers
sent to him if he was dead!" Brooklyn
