The disturbance Brought the com- pany commander on the run. "What's up?" says-he. "Well, sir," says the Canadian, "that there shell drops in on us and when it don't explode at once I judge 1 is pretty safe not to go off at all. So 1 just set where I am. The curst luck of it is that I've been playin' rot- ten cards and losin' my shirt, "and here just as I holds thé first four of a kind that's gladdened my two eyes since Hector was a pup--and kings at that, sir--at that identical mom- ent there comes this piffin' German turnip and the other fellows beats It."--New York Evening Post.
