TYPICAL  BULLS.

Specimens   of   Irish Wit, Copied from s
Collection of Anecdotes.
We must, of course, translate them
as best we can into brogue—"the softest, the mellowest, and most musical
things outside Paradise." First, as to
fighting; for an Irishman fights because he loves fighting for its own
sa_e, and there are some fine chapters
on dueling and the old faetion-feuus:
Perhaps the greatest contempt ever
expressed hy one man for another
was the rejection by an old Irish gentleman of a challenge. "Fight witb
him!" he exclaimed. "I would rather
gff to rily grave without a fight."
- !Take as- typic_i bull's, old 'a_d new,
arising ifom "excessive ' q_uic__ei,s *' of
thought:
From an Irish newspaper: "The
heavy drops of rain varied in size
from a shilling to eighteen-pence."
The chairman of a company in Cor_.:
"Perhaps you think that in our board
half do the work, and the other half
4jp\    do nothing.   As a matter of fact, gentlemen, the reverse is the case."
"'"Is it a son or a daughter your sister has got?" asked a gentleman of
one of his tenants. "The curse of the
crows on me, but I don't know whether I'm an uncle or an aunt," was ._e
immediate reply.
■'• From the witness box:
"'A1-Kathleen Mavourneen loan?'"
guestioked the judge. "What'in the
3^p_}jj"' js t{|gh",: "That's "iyji-t1 'we
ealls se_ie loans down ia oil. sal? E .
yer honner—the Tt may be for years
>       and-it may he for ever' sort."
"Did you call your husband's uncle
'Gary, the informer?'" "No," sbe replied. "I didn't go so far as that. 1
called him Anti-Christ."
, Eminent London specialist to a Galway landlord: "I should like to know
whether your family have heen long-
lived?" "Well, doctor, I'll just tell you
how it is," said the patient, thought-
'fully.

SCHOOL NOTES
Soin? excellent   experiments    with
! hydrogen haye been performed by  the
chemistry class this week, among tbem
being electrolosis and qualitative work
in the production of water.
. The number of pupils who took the
eighth grade examination last Saturday was fifteen. The examination, on
the whole, was, it seems to us, a good
stroug test of the work of the schools
represented. Some of those present
wrote only a part of the subjects offered and will finish the others at another
similar examination to be held in May
next.
.The boys have been putting forth all
possible effort to complete the arrangements in the "Recreation Room" for
the very popular game of basket ball.

Tills Was Really Poker.
Several Montanians have been
guests of the Imperial Hotel for the
last few days, and they all knew Senator William H. Clark when he worked
in the mines ahout Butte clad in a red
shirt. They are all proud of the senator, who has made a reputation as an
art connoisseur by his recent purchase
of a ?42,000 oil painting and by the
prospectus of the new palace which he
is about to erect on upper Fifth ave-
nne, near the Museum of Art. "By the
way," said one of the wealthy miners,
While in the lobby the other night,
"do you know that Clark used to be
a pretty stiff poker player in his day,
and he is yet, as far as I know. He
was in that little game in Butte which
has since become famous all over the
country. Haven't heard of it? Well,
it's old, but it's good. Well, as I was
a-saying, Clark used to sit in the little game in the Silver Bow Club, up
In Granite street. He generally played
with Marcus Daly, Haggin, Hearst, or
some one of those big fellows, and
they enjoyed themselves. On one occasion a New York drummer dropped
into the club while the game was on.
He had a card with a two weeks' run
on the club. Well, he see Daly, Hag-
gin, Clark and another fellow sitting
in the game, and he sashays up, pert-
like, 'n* says: " 'Well, gentlemen, any
objection to my taking a hand?'
'No,' says the players, cheerful like,
" 'n' then this drummer he pulls out a
thick roll and peels off a hundred dollar bill and chucks it on the table.
'Gimme chips for that,' says he, and
looks around, puffed up like. He
goes 'n' hangs up his coat, 'n' when
he comes back 'n' sits down there lays
that bill. 'What's the matter, gentlemen?' he says, huffy like. 'Ain't my
money good?' 'Why, yes, to he sure/
says Marcus Daly. 'Clark, give the
gentleman one white chip.' Well, that
gentleman from the effete East he
nearly drops dead, he does, _.' he goes
out to get some of the mounting air.
Tes, the senator's a good one."
