VIGOROUS DENUNCIATION OF CRAWFORD SYSTEM Folsted Upon the Party by a Combination of Office Seekers Who Had No Show in a Delegate Convention The Post refrained from discussing the new method of nominating county officers, after it was decided upon, for the sake of harmony; but it cannot be silenced with a "Sh—there's a hen on," while others keep up their cackling over the alleged beauties of the system. Although it still seems inopportune to argue the question while the ticket is in suspense, yet if the other fellows will persist in crowing the Post must shy a pebble at them. Note some of their specious pleas: Interviews of the "speak-well-of-the-bridge--that-carried-you-safely-over" character are sought and printed. W. G. Potter is represented as having changed his mind about the system since it worked so well in his case. If, on the other hand, he had been unfortunate enough to have had a Santa Ana competitor on the ticket, his original opinion of the system would doubtless have been intensified. Why, splendid man that he is and without opposition, he fell 386 votes behind the total cast for judge! If less than half that dejection should go over to the Democratic candidate in the November election, he would feel as though he had been too previous in congratulating the system on the fine ticket it produced. The accusation has been made that some of the same men who denounced the convention are now complaining bitterly of the new method. They are spoken of compassionately as born kickers who cannot help their infirmities. This accusation would need proof, as being applicable to any considerable number, and an opponent entitled to a hearing without being commiserated on alleged natural deficiencies. The unfair distribution of the nominations in the late primary is excused on the plea that it is no worse than the election four years ago left the ticket. A wrong per se cannot be justified by the possibility of there really is any ground for such distrust, it must come from the failure of the people to select the proper representatives; if they are remiss in one form of government, they will be so in another. As a rule, representatives are quite as trustworthy and capable as their constituency. The Crawford county plan is a leap in the dark; it is individualism run mad. No section of the country knows what another section is doing; neither does one individual know what another is doing. Out of this groping in the dark comes unfair distribution and every other ill-advised result. It is absolutely necessary for the voters to survey the whole field at once in order to act intelligently, to meet together and exchange ideas, to see and understand each step as it is taken before deciding on what the next step shall be. This can only be done by delegates from all sections of the county meeting at the county seat; just as congress, the legislature or any other representative body meets to transact the business entrusted to it by its constituents. If the voters cannot have this broad view of the field, this interchange of ideas through the regular time-honored channel of public representation, they will get it in some other way. After being snubbed a few times the outside will form a private representative combine for self-protection. "You can fool some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time; but you can't fool all the people all the time." The Crawford county plan shuts the voters up to nominating the office-seekers; the office cannot seek the man under this system. Anyone, no matter how unworthy, can get his name on the primary ballot by paying the fee; if no other applies he will get the nomination, as G. W. Sherwood did for surveyor. The only alternative the voter has is to leave him off his ticket, as 556 voters did with this candidate in the late primary; but that neither defeats his nomination nor puts a better man on the ticket; it simply gives the office to the Democrats in the election. The system gives the voters no second choice, as the delegates would have in a convention in case their first choice could not win. They must go in blind and abide the result. A Pacific Cable Wholly American A full statement was made public yesterday of the conditions imposed by the administration upon the company applying for the privilege of landing a cable on American islands in the Pacific. These conditions, it now clearly appears, go far beyond those to which we have already referred as being more than the ordinary requirements of the act of 1886 in the case of all telegraph companies using any part of the public domain. First, it is understood that thecession from the government is in no sense exclusive and no monopoly granted. Secondly, the cable must have no station on any but American territory, between our Pacific coast and China. Thirdly, maximum rates are specified for commercial business. Besides these stipulations it is provided that our government shall control the line in time of war or when war is threatened; that contracts with foreign governments shall be void at time of war; that operators and employees, except unskilled laborers shall be American citizens; that that plant and service shall come up to specified grade of excellence, and most important of all, that a new line independent of any foreign control combination, shall be laid between the Philippines and China. These, with the necessary legal conditions as to rates for government business, priority of government mages, and the government's right to any time to purchase, constitute an arrangement in which the interests of the United States appear to be safeguarded carefully and adequately. We see no good reason why Congress should refuse to ratify an agreement this sort, which is proposed by the administration only in a preliminary way and as a definition of its idea subject. Nor do we see any reason why a company accepting in good faith these conditions should not be used to use surveys and soundings in the possession of the government. President Roosevelt said in his message of December last: I call your attention most earnest to the crying need of a cable to Hawaii. The unfair distribution of the nominations in the late primary is excused on the plea that it is no worse than the election four years ago left the ticket. A wrong per se cannot be justified by precedent; besides, if the possibility of a miscarriage of justice at an election be exchanged for a certain injustice at the primaries, where is the gain in the much vaunted Crawford plan? The claim that nothing can be more fair than to let the whole party nominate the ticket might be admitted in the whole party could meet in one assembly to see and hear what is being done. The same claim can be made against all representative government but the answer to it will be deferred till later in this article. The fact that the outside did not try for all the offices is treated as if the uncontested ones need not be included in the distribution. If the county-seat wishes to be just it would say: "Inasmuch as the outside precincts are willing to allow us a fair proportion of candidates without contest, we will concede them an equally fair representation on the ticket where they have men qualified to fill the places." Suel kindly consideration would meet with a more generous response from the outside than all attempts to justify an unfair distribution can ever do. Another shallow argument, and one fraught with danger to the county-seat, is the showing that with less than one-third of the votes the county-seat captured two-thirds of the nominations; hence the outside must have given the nominations to the county-seat. This is simply an admission of one of the inherent defects of the system, which was pointed out by the Post long before the primaries verified the predic tion. A precinct on one side of the county-seat votes for its own favorite son for one of the offices and for the candidates of its nearest neighbor, the county-seat, for the other offices. The same course is pursued, with variations, by every precinct on the outside each adding its support to the candidates of the county-seat and receiving very little reciprocal support for its own candidate from the county-seat on the other precincts farther away. Finding, when it is too late for redress, that they have been unfairly dealt with, these outside precincts start in Samson-like, to pull the house down upon themselves, preferring to defeat their own party rather than to allow the guilty to profit by their selfishness. Having disposed of the principal pleas in favor of the Crawford county plan, let me present a few objections to it. The system was foliated upon the Re- A cure for Cholera Infantum "Last May," says Mrs. Curtis Baker of Bookwalter, Ohio, "an infant child of our neighbor's was suffering from cholera infantum. The doctor had given up all hopes of recovery. I took a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy to the house, telling them I felt sure it would do good if used according to directions. In two days' time the child had fully recovered, and is now (nearly a year since) a vigorous healthy girl. I have recommended this remedy frequently, and have never known it to fail in any single instance." At all druggists. Sapient Suggestions—"If we dig this canal across the isthmus," inquires the erudite senator, "what will you do when a volcano begins erupting alongside the right of way?" "Turn the canal into the volcano," suggested the practical senator." Astonished the Editor Editor S. A. Brown of Bennettsville, S. C., was once immensely surprised. "Through long suffering from dyspepsia," he writes, "my wife was greatly run down. She had no strength or vigor and suffered great distress from her stomach, but she tried Electric Bitters which helped her at once, and after using four bottles she is entirely well and can eat anything. It's a grand tonic, and its gentle laxative qualities are splendid for torpid liver." For indigestion, loss of appetite, stomach and liver troubles it's a positive, guaranteed cure. Only 50c at J. P.

We see no good reason why Congress should refuse to ratify an agreement this sort, which is proposed by the administration only in a preliminary way and as a definition of its idea subject. Nor do we see any reason why a company accepting in good faith these conditions should not be allowed to use the surveys and soundings in the possession of the government. President Roosevelt said in his message of December last: I call your attention most earnest to the crying need of a cable to Havens and the Philippines, to be continued from the Philippines to points in America. We should not defer a day longer than necessary the construction of such cable. It is demanded not merely commercial, but for political and literary considerations. Either Congress should immediately provide for a construction of a government cable else an arrangement should be made by which like advantages to those cruising from a government cable will be secured to the government by a tract with a private company. Such a cable would likewise meet the requirements of policy as stated President Roosevelt's predecessor his special message in February 1899. "Communication," wrote Mr. McLeay to Congress, "should be established in such a way as to be wholly under control of the United States whether in time of peace or of war." Only a Mask Many are not being benefited by summer vacation as they should be. Now, notwithstanding much out life, they are little if any stronger than they were. The tan on their face darker and makes them look healthier but it is only a mask. They are nervous, easily tired, upset by trivial and they do not eat or sleep with What they need is what tones nerves, perfects digestion, creates petite and makes sleep refreshing that is Hood's Sarsaparilla. Pain and teachers generally will find chief purpose of the vacation best served by this great medicine while as we know, "builds up the wrist system."

Aldrich, newly introduced very little reciprocal support for its own candidate from the county-seat or the other precincts farther away. Finding, when it is too late for redress, that they have been unfairly dealt with, these outside precincts start in, Samson-like, to pull the house down upon themselves, preferring to defeat their own party rather than to allow the guilty to profit by their selfishness. Having disposed of the principal pleas in favor of the Crawford county plan, let me present a few objections to it. The system was folsted upon the Republican party of Orange county without consulting the wishes of the rank and file of that party. The powers of a convention are only such as are delegated to it by the people at the primaries. The convention of 1900, without authority from its constituency, instructed the county central committee to introduce the system at the next election. The motion was made after some of the delegates had gone home and the rest were anxious to go. The chairman, having opposed the measure from the floor of two previous conventions, decided to make no further resistance. So the plan was adopted without authority, without discussion and without the knowledge of many of the delegates. The system is the outgrowth of Populism, the initiative and referendum, and has no place in a Republican or representative government. As before intimated, if the Republican voters could all come together and consult, they would know how to act; that would be a pure democracy, of which there is precious little on the earth. Realizing that the whole people would be too unwieldy for the transaction of business in one assembly, our forefathers established a republic instead of a democracy. Every subdivision of the United States, and of each state, and every organization, for whatever purpose, has a republican form of government, that is, a government composed of representatives chosen by the people. It is the best form of government yet devised, and every departure from that form produces more or less friction and loss. The Crawford county plan virtually says: "The people can't trust their representatives selected by themselves from their own number because of special fitness; hence they want to attend to this business themselves." Editor S. A. Brown of Bennettsville, S.C., was once immensely surprised. "Through long suffering from dyspepsia," he writes, "my wife was greatly run down. She had no strength or vigor and suffered great distress from her stomach, but she tried Electric Bitters which helped her at once, and after using four bottles she is entirely well and can eat anything. It's a grand tonic, and its gentle laxative qualities are splendid for torpid liver." For indigestion, loss of appetite, stomach and liver troubles it's a positive, guaranteed cure. Only 50c at J. P.

Montgomery, Pasco, Wayne Co., Mo., writes: "I have little twin girls who have been bothered with worms all their lives. I tried everything to relieve them, but failed until I used White's Cream Vermifuge. The first two doses brought four worms from one of them; the next two doses twelve, one of them measuring twelve inches. The other child was only relieved of four worms. It is a most excellent medicine." White's Cream Vermifuge is good for children. It not only destroys worms, it helps the child to perfect growth and wards off sickness. 25c at J. P. Hatzfeld's.

The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foothills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California. The climatic conditions are the most favorable for out-door life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east. The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc. The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds. Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry, ostrich farm, bank, several adequate commercial houses, two hotels and two newspapers. The city also owns Passing of Imperialism The fact that imperialism as an issue of practical politics has been dropped has some significance, but there is no special reason for surprise thereat. Too much importance, of course, is attached by some of the papers to J. F. Schurman's reunion of that fad. Schurman, who was formerly a Philippine commissioner, has been on at least three sides of the imperialism folly since his name began to be connected with the Philippine question, and probably he will make one or two moregyrations before the question drops into entire forgetfulness. The important fact in connection with it is that the Democrats have stopped talking about it. Recently Messrs. Schurz, Adams, Story and one or two other dag-furlers addressed a mild fulmination to the President against the Philippine policy of the administration and the Republican party; but it has received very little notice from the Democratic press, and the Democratic congressional campaign committee has ignored it altogether. Here is the fact of consequence in connection with Imperialism. The Democratic stump-speakers have orders to steer clear of this question: Carmack of Tennessee, an especially blatant personage, gave this the place of importance in what he called the issues of the campaign; but Griggs, the head of the campaign committee, has notified Carmack that imperialism is tabooed until after the election. The Tennesseecean has been as silent as a claim on that subject for the past seven or eight days, and probably will say nothing more about it in public. When Mr. Cleveland, at the Tilden club dinner a few weeks ago, refused to mention it, his silence angered two or three persons and surprised a few others, but the majority of the ex-President's fellow-countrymen knew the reason why he skipped that subject. Mr. Cleveland, as well as the great mass of sane Americans, favors the policy which has been followed by the Republican party. It is a condition and not a theory which confronts the Republicans, and they have risen to the necessities of the occasion on this question, as they are in the habit of doing on all issues which confront them when in Beets to Sugar Commencing on Monday of this week the sugar factory was put in full operation, both sides of the diffusion being used. A good record was also made that first day, 866 tons of beets being sliced. The night shift made 438 tons and the day shift 418. Every part of the factory is worked like a charm and the management heads of departments have smiled their faces when speaking of fast operations. W. J. Wayte, chief engineer for all the A. B. S. Co.'s farms, was here on Wednesday and left saying there was no need for here. The following is a statement on work of the campaign to date, given tonnage sliced and the average quality of the beets in each day's run: TONS PER CT.

Beets are not yet coming in as they should on account of late ripening; but next week it is there will be no further trouble or score. Harvest on the Chino ranch commenced yesterday. The beats are going especially high quality, testing from 80 to 85 per cent. Four and five carloads of sugar being shipped per day, it going to Omaha and other Missouri points.

It is a condition and not a theory which confronts the Republicans, and they have risen to the necessities of the occasion on this question, as they are in the habit of doing on all issues which confront them when in control of the government. Most of the Democratic papers of influence all over the country, especially in the South, have applauded the course of the administration and of the majority in Congress on this question. An act was recently passed by Congress and signed by the President giving the Filipinos a share in the government of their locality. At the time that act went into operation the President issued a proclamation granting amnesty to all the political prisoners in the islands, on the condition that they promise to support American sovereignty. Aguinaldo and all the rest of the recent rebel chiefs are at liberty, and come and go in the islands without any restraint from the American authorities. The masses of the islanders, so far as the world is able to learn, accept the situation without any mental or moral reservations. They have more liberty now than they could ever gain under Spanish sway. They have more real freedom than they could have under a government of their own, for that would necessarily be a dictatorship of some sort, which would quickly prove as repressive as anything they had under the Spanish regime. The islanders are especially fortunate in the treatment which they are receiving from the United States. The fact that the Democratic leaders, who would be glad to put imperialism at the front if there was any such issue, have dropped all mention of it shows that imperialism has gone to join militarism and the rest of the spook questions with which the enemies of the Republican party have tried to impose on the American people—Glo be-Democrat. Oramp In The Legg. Many persons of both sexes are truly troubled with cramp in one of their legs. It comes on suddenly very severe. Most people jump bed (it nearly always comes out just after going to bed or while) and ask some one to rub their good night's rest. When I hit them who is subject to cramp, advise him to provide himself good strong cord. A long garter if nothing else is handy. Wrinkle comes on, take the cord around the leg over the place cramped and take an end in it and give it a sharp pull—one hurt a little. Instantly the opar depart and the sufferer can assured it will not come on agree night. I have saved myself many nights' rest simply by posting clients subject to spasms of them to use the cord as above. I have known it to fail, and I have tried her they had worked half the patient was in the most agony.-New York Ledger.

The word "kicker" is no more slang, but an honorable term admitted by the lexicographer to the round table of English speech. This acceptance of the word proves that there was a real need for it; that a certain class of people had no word in the English language to fitly designate them. As a class these kickers must be as modern as the word describes them. They are in effect a new product of our latest civilization. The word which describes the kicker is picturesque. It suggests the mule whose kicking is usually done out of pure wantonness; which kicks in season and out of season, at everything or at nothing as the case may be. The term kicker scarcely needs definition. We know exactly what it means, as well as we know the chronic fault-finder it designates. THE RISE OF THE KICKER. Any one who cares to trace the rise of liver and kidney affection. He treated me for more than a year and I felt much better but it did not last. I then took to using several widely advertised patent medicines, but received no more than temporary relief while using. I then tried Dr. Pierce's medicines, using his 'Golden Medical Discovery,' 'Favorite Prescription' and the 'Pleasant Pellet' and in two months' time I was Organ Music and Organ Playfog. It may perhaps be said that all music did. At any rate, one thing is certain—vis, if there has been any progress in music since the day of Bach, it has been due to him. Bach's music is polyphonic, and polyphony is true music. To its foundation upon this school is due the fact that there has been no decadence in music in Germany. There has been no advance in lyricophony since the days of Bach. Such advance as has been made has been in originality and boldness of modulation. For pure organ music Bach still is not probably will always remain the greatest of all composers. Even with the modern mechanical appliances that have been attached to the organ, its works are still very difficult—perhaps the most difficult of organ compositions. He must have been as great an artist as he was a composer. That he could have been able to play upon the organ of his day works so exacting in technique as his own is simply marvelous. It is one of the phenomena of musical history that, while orchestral, operatic and other branches of music were in their infancy in Bach's day and have developed since then, Bach brought ornate music to its climax. He was not the small source whence flowed a rivulet which in time was to expand into a broad stream; he was the broad stream itself. The word "Bach" in German means a brook, which led a famous German composer to say punningly that his great master was not a Bach, but a ocean.—Forum. Oramp In the Leg. Many persons of both sexes are greatly troubled with cramp in one or both of their legs. It comes on suddenly and is very severe. Most people jump out of bed (it nearly always comes on either last after going to bed or while undress-leg) and ask some one to rub the leg. There is nothing easier than to make the spasm let go its hold, and it can be accomplished without sending for a doctor, who may be tired and in need of a good night's rest. When I have a patient who is subject to cramp, I always advise him to provide himself with a good strong cord. A long-garter will do nothing else is handy. When the cramp comes on, take the cord, wind it around the leg over the place that is cramped and take an end in each hand and give it a sharp pull—one that will hurt a little. Instantly the cramp will appear and the sufferer can go to bed measured it will not come on again that night. I have saved myself many a good night's rest simply by posting my patients subject to spasms of the legs how to use the cord as above. I have never known it to fail, and I have tried it attentively they had worked half the night and the patient was in the most intense agony.—New York Ledger. Of pure wantonness; which kicks in season and out of season, at everything or at nothing as the case may be. The term kicker scarcely needs definition. We know exactly what it means, as well as we know the chronic fault-finder it designates. THE RISE OF THE KICKER. Any one who cares to trace the rise of the kicker will find that he keeps pace with the prevalent American disease, dyspepsia. All kickers may not be dyspeptics, but all dyspeptics are surely kickers. They are everlasting faultfinders. Nothing goes right for them in the family or in business. There is always a dead fly in their ointment. It is a miserable condition for the dyspeptic and his friends. He really can't help himself. His nerves are strained to the limit of endurance. His ears are like megaphones magnifying every little sound to the shock of thunder. His eyes lose sense of perspective and he sees mole-hills as mountains. He is suspicious, jealous, unreasonable and obstinate; and all these things are only symptoms of the disease which is starving and weakening the entire nervous system and reaching out toward heart, liver, lungs, kidneys and other organs. WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR HIM? What can be done for the victim of dyspepsia? He can be cured. He can be given a new start in life. He can be made the amiable, companionable man he was of old. He can once more eat with appetite and enjoyment, work with energy, and sleep the night through in sound, dreariness slumber. This is not a mere empty claim supported by facts. The statement that the dyspeptic can be cured is made on the authority of thousands of men and women, who have been entirely cured. SOCIETY IN SIBERIA. Hostess and Guests Frequently Retire to the Kitchen to Cook and Eat. "At one of the grand balls I attended at Krasnoyarsk," writes Thomas G. Allen, Jr., of "Fashionable Siberia," in The Ladies' Home Journal, "I was impressed by the profusion of flowers used in the decoration of the ballroom, and which had been imported from Europe at enormous expense, and also by the importance given to the matter of refreshments. Although there appeared to be about four girls to one man, the male portion of the company spent the greater part of the evening at the buffet, or zokooski table, eating and drinking. The conversation of the women, I found, was most conventional, and one could invariably anticipate the same remarks upon an introduction to a lady. Knowledge of French, which I was surprised to find few could speak, is considered the most graceful feminine accomplishment. "The kitchen, however, has for the lady of the land a peculiar fascination. Very often while dressed in silks and satins and conversing with her guests a hostess will proceed to fry a 'blin,' or pancake and, eat it with the greatest gusto. The other ladies are at liberty to follow the hostess' example if they choose." STOLE A $10,000 OPINION. The Widow of a Famous General Who Needed Money to Dress Well. Some years ago the widow of a famous Union general was intimate with the wife and daughters of a justice of the supreme court and was as familiar with their home as with her own, which was in the immediate neighborhood. She was also intimate with the family of a prominent and popular lobbyist, who was supposed to represent Jay Gould, C. P. Huntington and other men of large interests whenever anything concerned them in congress. All the parties are now dead, except the lady in the case, whom I will call Mrs. Smith. She was a handsome, ambitious and frivolous woman whose husband committed suicide by drowning himself in his bathtub. She lived a gay life afterward, but managed to keep many of her old friends. Knowing her love of money and the fact that her income did not keep pace with her expenses, she lobbyist told her that he would give her $10,000 if she could get him a copy of the opinion which the justice was expected to deliver in the supreme court on the following Monday, involving the constitutionality of the Turrman Justice law. He told her that he knew the opinion was in manuscript and believed that the judge had locked up in the desk in his library. nothing else is handy. When the ramp comes on, take the cord, wind it around the leg over the place that is cramped and take an end in each hand and give it a sharp pull—one that will snort a little. Instantly the gramp will apart, and the sufferer can go to bed assured it will not come on again that night. I have saved myself many a good night's rest simply by posting my patients subject to spasms of the legs how to use the cord as above. I have never known it to fail, and I have tried it after they had worked half the night and the patient was in the most intense agony.—New York Ledger. Peculiar Trade Customs. The Armenians, who divide with the Greeks and Jews the entire mercantile trade of west Asia, are accustomed to sit down and weep bitterly when they have sold any article of valse, declaring that the purchaser has ruined them. The Jews, on similar occasions, rend their garments, which are worn purposefully for such sacrifice, with still broader protestations of ruin. In Asiatic Russia the shopkeepers consider it incumbent upon them to at first refuse to sell their goods to any customer, and the latter is expected to employ himself at least an hour in persuading the merchant to deal with him. But the most remarkable custom is that which prevails among the merchants of Tibet, a regular hand to hand being required to take place between the seller and the purchaser on the disposal of any considerable quantity of goods, the former obstinately refusing the price to which he had first agreed, and the latter as resolutely forcing it upon him. It is not considered businesslike to settle matters until a few blows have been exchanged, after which they peaceably shake hands and the bargain is concluded.—Exchange.

French and English Crusoes. French men of letters have not enough of the audacious spirit of the English says Henry D. Sedgwick in The Atlantic. They troop to Paris, where they have been accustomed to sit on their classical benches since Paris became the center of France. The romance of Villon is the romance of a Parisian thief. The romance of Ronsard is the romance of the Parisian salon. Montaigne lives on his seignior while England is topsy turvy with excitement of new knowledge and new feeling. Corneille has the nobleness of a juvenile fille. You can measure them all by their ability to plant a colony. Wreck them on a desert island, Villon will pick blackberries, Ronsard will skip stones, Montaigne whittle, Corneille look like a gentleman, and the empire of France will not increase by a hand's breadth. Take a handful of Elizabethan poets, and Sidney would chop, Shakespeare would cook, Jonson dig, Bacon snare, Marlowe catch a wild ass, and in 24 hours they would have a log fort, a score of savage slaves, a windmill, a pinnace, and the cross of St. George flying on the tallest tree.

She lived a gay life afterward, but managed to keep many of her old friends. Knowing her love of money and the fact that her income did not keep pace with her expenses, the lobbyist told her that he would give her $10,000 if she could get him a copy of the opinion which the justice was expected to deliver in the supreme court on the following Monday, involving the constitutionality of the Tournament Fascination law. He told her that he knew the opinion was in manuscript and believed that the judge had it locked up in the desk in his library. Sunday morning, as soon as she saw the justice and his family start for church, she went across the street, around Thomas circle, rang the bell and told the servant that she wanted to look at a book in the justice's library. As she was acustomed to go about the house almost daily they thought nothing of it, and she was allowed to remain undisturbed in the same room with the decision for nearly two hours. It is supposed that she had a set of false keys, for the justice said that the opinion was locked up in his desk and could not have been reached otherwise. But at any rate, the lobbyist is known to have obtained the opinion in advance, and the woman was shortly after able to pay off some pressing obligations. An investigation disclosed the facts I have stated, and it seemed to be the only possible way the opinion could have been obtained. Of course the incident terminated relations between the two families, and when the story got out about town Mrs. Smith found it more comfortable to rent her Washington residence and remove to New York.—Chicago Record. A Bright Bird. The cuckoo is as likely to steal its nest as to make it, but this fact does not take from the point of the following pun, quoted from Short Stories: A young Englishman being asked at dinner whether he would have some bird's nest pudding, said, turning to his hostess: "Ah, yes, bird's nest pudding, and what kind of a bird may have made it?" "Oh, it was the cook who made it," was her prompt reply. In the markets of Brazil one often sees live snakes—a species of boa—from 10 to 15 feet long. They are employed in many houses to hunt fats at night, being otherwise perfectly lassless. They become attached to a house like a cat or a dog.
