Governor Long, of Massachu-
sets, when questioned as to his
position on civil service reform,
said that he believed in practical
remedies. He was against fiXity

benefit an exclusive class. No

Too Many Generals.
Detroit Free Press.


A Detroit saloon keeper who had
spent considerable money for deco
rations and worked his patriotism
up to the top round, was heard Won
dering if any of the generals would
be around to see him, and gave one
of his acquaintance a clue to work.
He went off and put up a job with
friend, and yesterday morning walk
ed him into a saloon and said:
Allow me to introduce General
Alapaca Smith, the hero of three
wars and eighty-four battles.
"Sheneral, | vhas gladt to see
you," and he set them up for three.
In the course of twenty minutes
the deceiver returned with another
stranger on his arm and said:
"AllOW me to introduce General
CommissaTy Jones, the man who
fired'the first gun in the war"
"Sheneral, | vhas pleased to shake
hand nit YOU" said the man of
beer, and he set them up again.
Then the friend went out and re-
turned with General Hard Tack,
and after him came Generals Back
Pay and Debility. The last one re-
ceived a rather cool greeting, and
the beer glasses were not quite full,
and after he had departed the sa-
loonist turned to his friend and SAID:
"My trent, | vas moOch pleased
to see all does great shenerals in my
saloon, but you needn't bring any
more to day. From now until night
Wen let der shenerals go, and look
out for der fighting men. Does men
always bay cash for beer"

OVER THE BAR.

Out from the shore, with streamers gay.
Freighted with hopes and fears,
Bound for the land whose distant shores
Herald the coming years
Bright little barque, with courage bold,
Straight TO the breakers your course you hold
storms before you their terrors unfold.

over the sides OF the tiny ship
Tosses the restless sea;
Loud roar the brsake S, the northern winds
Revel and shout in glec;
Rocks underneath you, rocks to the rear,
Still, little barque, you have nothing to fear
Steer by your compass, the sky grows clear.
over the bar.
Sunshine around, and a fayoring wind,
Laden with promise fair.
Whispers oftands !ar over the sea,
Borne on the quivering air.
The safe, quiet hGrbor is vanishing fast,
But the storm has been vanqushed, the danger
Is past,
The broad, sunny ocean Is reached at last,
Over the bar.
We have launched our ship on the flowing
tide,
Filled with our hopes and fears;
II sails out over the harbor bar,
Toward the land of the future years.
Many rock has checked the tide;
Many storm ragged far and wide;
But we have landed safe on the other side
over the bar.
Are there storms ahead on the open deep"
Still there are dangers past.
Is the quiet harbor but traitors sleeps
Yet Wen reach the haven nj last.
over the waves ofan unknown sea,
Still In our compass our trust shall be,
For We have sailed from shipwrcck free,

Is He An Embelxler?

On the 18th of this month a man regis
tered at the Grand Windsor hotel as
Ridge Comfy, OF the daily FL Paso Times. +"
He represented that he was one of the pro.
prietors OF that paper. Yesterday morning
Mr. Carco arrived in the city, and
on investigating the register saw
the name of Comfy, when he
himself to the clerk as
Ralph Carico, one of the proprietors of
that paper, and made special inquiries after
Comfy. He stated that Comfy had formerly
been in his employ as reporter on his pa
per, but that recently he had discharged
him, when he asked leave of him to travel
and solicit for them, which he did
not consent to, yet he left there, coming
eastward, representing himself as the edi.
tor of the paper, soliciting advertisements
and subscriptions to the paper and failing
TO make any returns to the office. SO far as
has been ascertained, he collected about
1925, perhaps more. Mr.. Carico found him
last evening, and he claimed that he had
already sent the money to the home office
Mr., Carico did not have him arrested, but
they roomed together last night to await q
telegram from Ell Paso as to whether or not
the money had arrived.
