Just IIis Way.They tell a good story on Senator James Farnsworth Pierce. It seems that he came to Albany to see Governor Tilden soon after the latter’s inauguration. After a brief chat the governor, who was easily bored, asked: “When are you go-c*1 ing back?”“This afternoon, I think,” said James.“Better stay over till to-morrow,” returned the governor in a confidential murmur. Thinking something was m the air James remained over. Next day he again invaded the executive chamber, and the same formula was gone over, with the exception that the governor’s tone was slightly more confidential.James pulled at his glossy, iron gray mustache for awhile and again remained over, only to have the same disappointment How long the affair would have lasted is conjectural had not a kind hearted orderly told the misguided senator that that was merely a way the governor had.—Albany Journal.
