1 anpiKwe you have beard more or leas of the mystic meaning of the word “thirty" as used by telegraphers and press correspondents. When {•Iscol at the end of a dispatch it means that the day's or night's work Is rnded. There Is nothing more to ooma. t did not know until vntly that race track men also have a'mystic word— “twenty-three." If you and a race track man both reach at the same time for the same thing and be gets It— which would be natural—be will almost certainly say, ‘Twenty-three for

If ty-two ponies lined np for a race the twenty-third entry was barred. raa oat of It: hence the expression when your friend gets left. Twentythroe for blmr for he Is out of It" Oh, the race track people are great mathematicians. Maybe they can neither read nor write, but they have peat beads for figures.—San Francisco
