The Deacon, accompanied by his short fat friend, entered the palmroom of the Park row beanery, and ordered them looose, a la Boston. The Deacon is a man who hides hw love of practical jokes behind a countenance of blameless sanctity. "This one's a enckoorina," said the Deacon s short, fat friend, nodding at the waitress as he stroked his fifty-seven upper lip hairs, and ned to look hand some. "Ill introduce you to her. Mamie. mis is my ratner. Mamie threw a tropical glance at the Deacon, and by way of recognition of the introduction, filled his glass with wnter again. This was the surest pos sible sign of Mamie s approval of the Deacon. A second glass of water is a favor Indeed in the palm room. If the Deacon had been anybody ele Dut tne ieacon, ne would have ariven Mamie a square deal after this flattering show or ner ravor for him. But no. That introduction by his fat friend! Jimmy, had put an idea into the Dea con s nead. "So," he said, without changing the ex pression of his face. "You are the one arc you?" "Oh, what d'yer mean?" said Mamie, coquettishly. "Silence, woman !" thundered 'the Deacon, and everybody in the palm room dropped -whatever he had in his hand, and turned to ee the cause of the out burst. They saw the Deacon, with wrinkled brow and angry face, pointing an accus ing finger at the bewildered waitress, and they heard him say "For three months this boy has neg lected his home. His wife and his little ones have seen aught of him. Nothing but a woman vadS bring him to such YourTit." 8USht th womta. haSijhere " began Mamie? beginning to get angry. .

"The poor man," said a woman at an other table. "The .hussy!" ejaculated another, shooting a fierce glance at Mamie, ; Mamie began to cry. The other wait resses had gathered around and were giving her the cold and glassy eye. The manager came in, and when he heard the story and saw the little fat man vainly trying to wriggle out of the af fectionate paternal grasp and mutter ing oaths of a most horrible character, he said, in sterm tones: "Number 17, you will go. upstairs and change your clothes." Mamie wenf'away, crying bitterly. "Come, my son," said the Deacon, endeavoring to take the hand of his friend, but the other had managed to choke back his anger and amazement efficiently to say something. The Deacon saw that he was going to say nothing, so with bowed head he walked to; the door and disappeared up Park Row. This is what Jimmy, the fat boy, said: "That blanketty blank, fool is crazy. He isn't my father and nerer was. By the great blanketty blank, he's made a fool of me, of the girl and of you. Don't firo that fire. The whole thing is a lie." It took some time to convince the manager and "the other guests of the palm room that the Deacon had worked off a joke on them, but they-were finally convinced, and 3Iamie was summoned back to duty. It only remains to be said that the next time the Deacon en tered the palm room all the waitresses fled for cover, and the manager had to get the oyster ' openeT to take his order. -3 Hon. R. H. Hayes and wife of Pitts bcro arrived yesterday to attend a so cial function last night given by Mrs. T. B. Womack in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Womack. S Loiv Rates to Afthevllle, N.
