Mark Twain Hears . Telephone Con.
yersatIOn.

cnssVns
CONSIDER that a conversation by
telephone you are simply sitting
by and not taking any part in that con
versation-is one of the solemnes'
curiosities of this modern life.
Yesterday was writing deep article
on sublime philosophical subjec,
while such a conversation was going
on i'm the room. / notice that one can
always write best when somebody is
talking through a telephone close by.
Well, the thing began in this way. A
member of our household came in and
asked me to have our house put into
communication with Mr.. Bagley's,

cities, that the sex always shrink from
calling up the central office themselves.

touched the bell. and this talk ensued

piping female voice: '.Y-e-sH

Without answering, l handed the
telephone to the applicant, and sal
down. Then followed the queerest o.
all the queer things in this words
conversation with only one end to it
You hear questions asked; you dom

turn. You have listening pauses o.
dead silence, followed by apparently
irrelevant and unjustifiable exclama
tons of glad surprise, or sorrow. oil
dismay. You can't make head or tai
of the talk, because you never heal
anything that the person at The othel

The employment Of foreigners in the
Japanese service is an annually de-
creasing number. The Japanese Gov
eminent is having its subjects taught in
Europe in order that they may become
competent to do the work which Eu-
ropeans are now paid for performing.
One by one foreign employees are being
superseded by natives in various de-
partments and public works. The Jap
anese are self-helpful people, and will
not keep foreigners TO do what they
can accomplish themselves. Japan.
therefore. will soon cease to be a field
for the energies of educated foreigners.
A MAN who had been exposed TO
smallpox in Boston. and refused to be

Of Health, was sentenced to pay a fine
Of five dollars and costs-the full ex-

matter over, he concluded 20 comply
with the law, and the fine was RENTED.
