El Perkins Regales a Nevada City Audience. With a Feast of Them.
The injmithble Eli Perkins when he
lectured/on ‘‘The Philosophy of Wit
and Humor’’ at this city Monday evening under the auspices of Chattanooga
Post, G. A. R., toa good-sized and very
audience, verified the
many good things that have been said
of him as a ‘‘funny man’ and platform
He has goo powers of delineation, a rich, melodious voice, and
displays much magnetism as he warins
to his work. Fortwo hours and more
he had the closest attention of the
ladies and gentlemen who had assembled to hear him, and although most
that he said was long ago published
by him through one medium or another,and had an ancient flavor to folks
conversant with his writings, he kept
his liearers in merry: humor.
Humor, said he, is always exaggeraDickens was the king of humorists, The stories of ‘‘Little Nell’ and
“Smike’’ and ‘Oliver Twist” are the
. stories-of real, living characters.
Harte’s ‘‘Luck of Roaring Camp’’: is
pure humor—absolute truth. Mark
Twain’s chapter on building tunnels
in Nevada illustrates the difference between. wit and humor. He described
Lret
but they are trying to get a dollar’s
wort h_out of it. a
There is no special genius displayed
in reporting a scene true to life. The
humorist is a faithful photographer.
The wit lets his imagination and fancy
play. The wit is as far beyond the
humorist agythe ideal picture is bevond
the humdrum portrait. Any p tisnt
toiler can write humor. Only the man,
with brain and humor can write wit.
Baron Munchausen was witty in telling hisstory about the ride through
the Russian forests where the hungry
wolf got after him. He laid flat in the
sledge, his horse being on the run,
Finally the wolf overtook them and
leaping over him bit a hole in the horse
and commenced to.eat. The wolf ate
its way clear through the horse, and
finally yetiing the bit in its mouth was
at the mercy of the Baron who drove
the yreedy animal into St. Petersbury.
Satire iy a strong weapon. The
Satires of Juvenal changed the customs
of Rome. . Dean Swift changed the
political aspect of. England with his
“Tale of'a Tub.’’ Oervantes broke up
the custom of Knight errantry in
Spain by writing ‘“Don Quixote.”
The Bible is full of ridicule and
satire. Elijah often used it, and our Savior himself on several occasions. used
the most laughter-provoking. ridicule.
He said: ‘Ye be blind leaders of the
‘. through the hill. He said it was his
active, and. strong. Be sure to get}
the miners truthfully. He gave four.
or five pages of pure humor—pure
truth. Then he began to exaggerate.
He wrote of the miner who was runnminga tunnel. They all told him he
better stop running when he got
tunnel and he’d run it as far as he
wanted to. He ranover the valley into the next hill. You can picture to
yourselves this hole in the sky held
up by the trestle-work, and you can
see where humor leaves off and wit
begins.
A humorous artist can paint the picture of a mule—a patient mule. A
mule is patient because he is ashamed
of himself. If he paints that mule
true to life you will not laugh. I saw
a mule eating a lock of hay painted .in
St. Petersburg by that great animal
painter Schryer, and it sold for $15,000.
The original mule could be bought
for $1.80 The people did not laugh at
that mule. They stood in front of it
almost as religiously as they stand before a Greek Mandonna.
A witty artist exaggerated that mule.
He ran one ear up through the tree
and the chickens were roosting on. it.
He spread the other ear on the ground
and boys were skating on it. He made
it kick 1000 timesa minute. No mule
can kick over seven or eight or nine
hundred times a minute. The people
all laughed at the exaggerated mule,
but. nat. at. tha trna mule.
Irony, satire a nd ridicule are a species of wit, because they are untrue.
Ridicule is the strong weapon of
lawyers. ‘Take pure pathos, multiply
it by twenty, and it becomes ridicule.
A man had killed his. best friend in
anger and his lawyer said to the jury:
killed his friend, whom he loved as a
brother! When he saw that friend
fall, he knelt by his dying form. His
tears fell on the face of his dead friend
and remorse broke his heart.’”? He
won the jury’s sympathy, for this was
truth. The opposing lawyer was not
foolish enough to deny the truth. He
simply used ridicule, saying in weeping tones: ‘‘Yes, he did feel bad when
he killed his friend. The tears did
roll down his cheeks. Rolled clear
into his boots. He took off one boot
and emptied it, Then he cried some
more. Then he took off his other toot.
Then he tied his handkerchief around
his trouser legs and cried them tull.
Bohoo! Bohoo!” This set the jury
to laughing, and whenever dpring the
trial the grief of the murderer was
again referred to by his counsel it
brought a laugh of derision,
Mr. Perkins to still further illustrate
humor told the story of the stammering naan who went to the legislature to
get the State constitution changed.
‘‘What’s the matter with the constitution ?’”’ was asked of him,
‘Why, it’s a lie, s-s-sir, and I want
to get it c-c-changed.””
‘What, the constitution a lie? How’s
that?’
“Well, the con-constitution guarantees to every man fr-free sp-sp-speech,
don’t it?” ®
“Certainly.” .
“‘Well,do-do-dog on it,then I wa-wa
want the d-d-dang thing ch-ch-changed.”’
Mr. P. located the stammerer at
Stockton in this State.
r
wixe men_of Greece was displayed by
proving a lie to be true.
Chrysippus said one day to Cleanthes: j
“Whatever you say comes out of
your mouth, I believe,’’
4 *Yes.”’ ;
“*Well, you say snakes and toads.
Therefore snakes and toads come out
of-your mouth.’’
Ko
” Wit being pure exaggeration, Baron
Munchausen was a pure wit.
Pathos is the truthfal description of a
solemn scene, and we enjoy it as much
aswedo homor. Tears and laughter
come from the same fount. How many
a we haye seen young ladies cryig over thetic . aor . . They
would and cry. If they didn’t enje that pathos they would throw the
25 cents. ampy2i-ly
swallow a camel.”’
“Much of the humor of the seven’
blind: Ye strain at a gnat and ye
Suppose he had
said: ‘Ye strain ata musquito and
ye swallow a buffalo.”” It would. not
have been more ridiculous nor convineing.
Elijah broke down the heathe n
Priests of Bael with ridicule. You remember the prayer test, where the
Priests said that Bael could light
the tinders as well as Elijah’s God.
Then Elijah turned upon them and
said; ‘Pray away! Bael is a God,
but peradventure he sleepeth. Peradventure he, hath goneon a journey.
Pray louder.’’
A paradox is an instance of deformed logic. It is a case where a sentence destroys not itself, as in the case
of the anti-climax, but all the logic
itself. The ante-climax is the deformed sentence itself, while the paradox
is the deformity in its logical sense.
The best paradox in the English language is this oneby Arlemus Ward:
“Tam bound to live within my means,
if I have to borrow money to doit,”
Another instance is from a dinner
speect: made at Omaha: ‘'I like the
West. I like her self-made men. The
more I travel west, the more Iam with
her public men, the more I am convinced of the truth of the Bible statement that the wise men come from the
East.”’
Another case was where a man
broke one of tha atrans of a boot in trying vainly to pull it on and his friend
said, ‘‘I don’t believe you'll be able to
get that boot on till you’ve worn it a
spell.’’ :
Deformed rhetoric is a prolific source
of laughter. A preacher described a
storm thus: ‘‘The winds howled like
the roaring of. Niagara, tie thunders
rumbled and grumbled and_pealed
like Vesuvius laboring with a volcano,
the lurid lightnings flashed through
the sky like—sixty.
Music appeals not to tha brain, but
simply td the ear. It is purely sensuous. The student’s mind is not improved by music. Look at the great
singers. They have no brain worth
mentioning. Blind Tom is an idio’.
Juseph Hoffman is alittle fool. Patti,
Gerster and Nilsson are of the lowe-t
origin and are mentul nonentites,
Music deformed creates laughter, It is
one form of wit.
—
Oratory is for the enlightenment of
the lowest class of humanity. The
lower we get down in the scale of intellectuality, the more effect the orator
has over us. He appeals to our senses
of hearing and seeing, rather than to
our mind. I hope tosee th: day when
the people will be so well developed
in brain that they will grasp every
point necessary to their understanding
of a subject without having orators to
act out the meaning. Leyal oratory is
not forintelligent jurors. A shrewd lawyer who understands his business does
not try to palm spreadeagleism off on
the Judge who is a thinking man,
He uses it on thick-headed and ignorant jurors’ who cannot do their own
reasoning.
Mr. Perkins said miny more good
things. Hetalked of temperance, religion, education—in fact his subjects
were as:varied as. were the «motions
he portrayed. His changes from grave
to gay, from the sublime to the
to ridiculous, from laugh-provoking. to sigh-inspiring, were quick,
graceful.and effective. ‘The few desul.
tory quotations given above convey
but a faint idea of his lecture which
earned the highest commendations
from all who heard it.

FROM ORMONDE. .
The Attractions of that Lively New Mining
Town. e
Ormonpr, June 2nd, 1888.
Eprror Transcriet—I am at work
every day and have no time to write
a letter as it should read: in print; but
I will give you a few items in the
rough which you. can splice together
to suit. yourself.
This place at the present time presents a lovely appearance in every
respect. Evergreens of all kinds,
shades and colors, and stately pines,
trim the mountains as far as the eye
can reach, and the surrounding hillsides are literally covered with. beautiful-wild-flowers of every variety and
color. No other locality in the State
presents a, more. beautiful landscape
than our little town of Ormonde, does
at this season of the year. <A walk
along the banks of the South Yuba
river reminds one of.a stroll through
a well regulated flower garden. :
Before the summer is over many
improvements will have been made in
our town. Charles McElvey has already built a nice picket fence around
his house and lot at the upper end of
Main street. Mr. Tregidgo has ordered material for a five hundred foot
picket fence to be placed in front of
the Company’s store and boarding
house. The road through town has
been partially straightened out and
put in first-class condition. Jp a short
time the town site is to ba surveyed
into lots and blocks and made ready
for purchasers. Several applications
for lots have already heen made, but
none granted as yet.
Mr. Tregidgo has quite recently
made application fora patent to the
Blue Bell and Washington mines.
Mr. James Hartwell. made the survey
on the 15th) 16th and 17th of last
month. _
Mrs. Frank Merrill and children arrived here on the 21st to remain for
two or three wonths,
Mrs. Alf, Tregidgo and children arrived here on the 26th to remain for
the summer,
M. B. Siddles and John Murchie, a
couple of Nevada capitalists, passed
through our town a few days ago on a
prospecting expedition, Their destination was a secret. ;
A petition to the Postmaster General
has been circulated in this section
asking for a daily mail or six round
trips per week from Washington to
Maybert, also asking to have Maybert
appointed a star office. All the papers
are now ready and will be forwarded
to Senator Hearst by Thursday’s imail.
Another of our wants will soon be
supplied. :
Ned Downer, the boss milk-punch
mixologist of the National Hotel, and
Mr. George Pitts of Oakland visited
this. place Thursday last, bent ona
fishing expedition. They remained
with us two days. On leaving both
gentlemen acknowledged to having a
jolly good time in general while with
us, but said tbat our fish up this way
were as wild as a lot of Mexican
steers. I believe the total sum of
their catch in their two days’ fishing
was one little ball head about two
inches long. Dox Cak.os.

L. Q. C. LAMAR.
An Ex-Rebel Whom Cleveland Honored
For.a Selfish Purpose.
The elevation of Lamar to the Supreme Bench is generally considered
as a stroke of policy on the part of the
administration, Lamar was a-candidate for either President or Vice President and his advancement may do
much to prevent. his claims being
pressed, yet he can by no means be
considered out of the race—especially
for second place. Lucius Quintus
Cincinnatus Lamar is the full name of
the great southernor. Lamar is advancing to the sere and yellow leaf,
although as yet he gives little evidence
of physical decay. When under great
mental strain he gives way, and this
is, perhaps the only evidence of the
nervousness of ‘old age. In contrast
to the general impression, Senator
Lamar, under ordinary circumstances,
is a cool, impassionate man, and his
counsel is often sought by members of
both parties.

Could the recorded experience of thousands of workers be voiced, the verdict
would be that Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters renews failing strength, stimulates the jaded mental powers to fresh
activity, and relaxes undue nervous
tension as nothing else does. Digestion, a regular habit of body, appetite
and sleep are promoted by it, and it is
an admirable auxiliary in the recovery
of health by convalescents. A fastidious stomach is not offended by it, and
to persons of both sexes in delicate
health who occasionally feel the need
of an efficient tonic, the whole range
of the pharmacoposia and the catalogue
of proprietary medicines does not present a more useful, safer or more des
cisive one. Itis also incompkrable for
fever and ague, rheumatism and kid©
ney troubles.
