HE HAD MONEY BEFORE.
Colonel Curr was traveling In New
Mexico once. when he ran into a party
consisting of Senator Tabor and his
friends. it was only a few months off-
er Tabor had “struck it rich." Prior to
that event he had pusscsscd scnrccly
enough to buy a postage stamp, but 1111
was making up for lost timc.
Curr had lost his watch kcy and be-
gun inquiring for one. Mr. 'I‘nbor
thought this a great joke. ”The ldca
of a man wanting a which key in the
nluctccnih century!" he said. After
chuckling over if for some time he.
turncd to Carr and asked an cxplamr
tion. “1 want to understand ifwn
watch kcy! Anti a man as 11p to date
as you ?"
"Well, the fact. is." rcspondcd the
colonel, “I had enough money to buy a
watch before stem winders came into
fashion."
It was a center shot and was greeted
by a roar from the entire car. Tabor
got off by buying champagne for the.
crowd.

BOY KlCKED IN THE HEAD.
A boy named Vrecland, living In
Main street. Norwalk, was kicked in
the head at the ball game on the
)ccker Field, Saturday aftcrnoon, and
units painfully injured. Dr. S. H.
Huntington attended him.
Mrs. Margaret Kelley, who has no
particular home, has been arraigned in
.he Jefferson Market Police court on a
:harge of drunkenness. says the New
York Times. Her arrest at the Ten-
ierloln station was the outcome of an
illegation that she had tried to sell her
lourteen-yeunold daughter.
Little Maria, It is said, would not
live with her mother on account of
Mrs. Kelley‘s habits, and for a year or
me she was in a-convent up 'towu.
l‘hree weeks ago a Mrs. O'Donoghue, of
227 West 142d street, took the girl from
the convent to give her a home. On
Monday the mother heard of it. She
went"to Mrs. O'Donoghue's home, and
after making a scene, dragged the child
away with her.
On that day and the next, it is as—
serted, Mrs. Kelley made the child go
with her into back rooms of saloons
.md disorderly resorts, where she tried
to sell her to the women who infested
these places. On Wednesday afternoon
Mrs. Kelley was dragging the weeping
:hild into a saloon on Seventh avenue,
near 2th street, when ‘Flossie Behony
who does missionary work among Ten-
derloin women, tried to interfere. Mrs.
Kelley took the girl inside and there
offered to sell bin for $26. Flossle Be-
hony managed to get the child away.
and went with her to the Tenderloin
station, where Maria told Sergeant
McCullagh her story. Mrs. Kelley ran
into the station panting with rage, and
was arrested.
Once on a time three men broke a
horse.
“My day will come!" thought the
horse, after submitting to a great var-
iety of indignities.
in due time, then, the horse craftily
showed a burst of speed, and was so.
bored in some races.
"It is my day!" chuckled he, and
broke twenty men the first heat.
