Various Notes.

B. Eschner tells a funny story on the 

 redoubtable William F. Gude, of Wash- 

 ington, D. C. It seems that Mr. and 

 Mrs. Gude were visiting friends at 

 Elkins Park, where Mr. .Eschner lives. 

 Mr. Eschner took the visiting couple 

 for a ride in his car and then to the 

 station, where thev were to start for 

 home. Mr. Eschner has lots of the boy 

 in him, so as the Gudes boarded the 

 train he pelted them with rice. Mr. 

 Gude was so excited that he rushed 

 Mrs. Gude into the smoking car. It 

 seemed for a minute that the gifted 

 orator, the able man of business, the 

 man of many sons, had quite lost his 

 head at being treated like a honey- 

 mooner.
