They  made  a  pretty  picture  standing  In  the 
doorway  of  ht-r  father’d  mansion  ;  he,  the  Cap¬ 
tain  of  the  Melon  Stealers,  tall,  sti^ong  of  limb, 
and  the  hero  of  his  little  first  base  in  many  a 
bot-coutesteJ  game.  She,  the  fair  daughter  of 
the  banker,  who  had  wageied  the  entire  assets  of 
the  bank  and  the  deposits  of  many  a  poor  man 
on  the  return  game  between  the  Moth  Eradica- 
tora  and  the  liomo  club  on  the  following  day. 
Onr  hero’s  answer  eaiim  hot  and  quick  ; 
“Then,"  criorl  he,  “  (o-morrow's  setting  sun 
will  shine  upon  the  beggar  d.-iugbter  of  a  ruined 
man !  It  rests  with  mo  to  throw  the  game  on 
which  your  proud  father’s  wealth  is  staked. 
You  have  to-night  settled  your  own  fate.  So  be 
it.  Good  night.’’ 
And  turning  himself  seven  times  round  on  his 
heel,  at  the  same  time  boring  a  lar^e  bole  in  the 
hall  carpet,  Muse  Fitz  Allen  was  gone.

Prominent  among  the  immense  crowd  assem¬ 
bled  on  the  grounds  is  the  pale  face  of  Amelia 
Banks.  The  Moth  Eradicators  are  at  the  bat  on 
the  last  half  of  the  ninth  inning,  with  two  men 
out  and  one  man  on  tho  third,  and  the  score 
stands  63  to  63.  “  Will  that  man  get  in  is  the 
broathloss  question  which  pervades  the  scene. 
Moro  Fitz  Allen,  staudiug  on  the  first  base,  mut¬ 
ters,  “Now  for  reveny  I  Now  do  I  give  the 
thing  away !  Ah  I"  un'd  his  face  was,  distorted 
with  paHwlon,  like  a  mud  ball  dried  in  the  sun. 
“Two  RtriUcs!"  yells  tho  umpiro.  The  batter 
must  hit  It  next  time,  lie  does  hit  it,  and  a  fiy 
mounts  and  doscoads  beautifully  to  Fitz  Allen. 
“Take  it,  Mose!’’  goes  out  from  tho  throat  of 
B.inlcer  B.tnks  and  from  huiuireds  of  his  friends. 
“  Not  if  Mose  is  thoroughly  acquainted  with 
himself,’’  is  nis  low  re.sponse,  as  the  ball  passes 
through  hU  hands  aud  the  mau  on  third  goes

When  a  half  dozen  people  are  to  dine  upon  a 
quarter  of  lamb,  what's  the  proper  time  to  dine  ? 
Why,  a  quarter  before  six,  of  course. 
Rep.vrtke. — “  Please  accept  u  look  of  ray 
hair,"  said  a  bachelor  to  a  widow,  handing  her  a 
laj’ge  curl.  “ Sir."  she  rephed,  “you  had  bettor 
give  tho  whole  wig."  “  Madam,''  he  responded, 
“you  are  very  biting  indeed,  considering  that 
your  teeth  are  poroi!l.iin." 
“  Look  here,  'S.puro,  whar  was  you  born  in¬ 
quired  a  Yankee  of  a  five  iniuutes’  acquaintance. 
“I  was  born,"  said  tho  victim,  “  in  Boston,  Tre- 
mont  street,  No.  41,  left  hand  side,  on  the  first 
day  of  August,  1820,  at  6  o'clock  in  the  evening. 
Physician,  Dr.  Warren;  nurse,  Sally  Bonjamiu." 
For  a  moment  tho  Yankee  was  bewildered  by  the 
thoroiighness  of  tho  reply,  but  only  for  a  mo¬ 
ment,  and  he  bald,  “  Yoas ;  waal,  1  calculate 
you  don't  recollect  whether  it  was  a  frame  or  a 
brick  bulldiug,  du  yoou?” 
A  CERTAIN  Cine  nnatl  wag  lately  distinguished 
himself  in  New  York.  Dini  g  at  a  noted  restau¬ 
rant,  ho  road  on  the  hill  of  fare  a  request  to  the 
guests  to  repurt  “any  want  of  attention."  He 
Bent  for  the  landlord  and  with  an  aggrieved  air 
pointed  out  the  notice.  “  Has  there  been  any 
want  of  altontiou?"  queried  tue  landlord.  “  Has 
there !"  echoed  tho  wag,  indignantly  ;  “  I  should 
think  there  has.  I  have  boeu  here  15  minutes 
and  no  one  has  had  the  politeness  to  ask  me  to 
take  a  drink!"  Bcnif.ice,  fully  appreciating  the 
joke,  at  once  opened  a  bottle  of  ohampagno. 
Clous  for  Editors. — “  Tommy,  my  son,  what 
are  you  going  to  do  with  that  club  ?"  “  Send  it 
to  the  editor,  of  course."  “  But  what  are  you 
going  to  send  it  to  the  editor  for  ?”  “  ’Cause  he 
says  if  anybody  w  ill  send  him  a  club,  ho  will  send 
them  a  copy  of  his  paper  "  The  mother  came 
near  faliillng,  but  recovered  herself  sufiiciently 
to  ask,  “But,  Tommy,  dear,  what  do  j-ou  sup¬ 
pose  he  wants  with  a  club?"  “Well,  I  don’t 
know,”  replied  tho  urchin,"  unless  it  is  to  knock 
down  subscribers  as  don't  x>ay  for  their  xiapera. 
I  siipijose  there  are  plenty  of  such  mean  people." 
That  boy  stands  a  chance  for  tho  Presidency,  if 
he  lives.
