No Apologies for Dinner.

Apologies for poor dinners are gener-
ally out Of place. But when lady has
a forgetful husband, who without warn
ing, brings home dozen guests to sit
three or four, it is not in human nature
to keep absolutely silent. What to say
and how to say it form the problem.
Mrs. Tucker, the wife of Judge Tucker,
of Williamsburg, solved this problem
years ago She was the de- lighter, or
neice, Of Sir Peyton Shipworth, and
celebrated for beauty, wit, ease and
grace of manner. Her temper and tact
were put to proof one Court day, when
the Judge brought the accustomed half
score or more of lawyers, for whom not
the slightest preparation had been
made, the Judge having quite forgotten
to remind his wife that it was Court
day, and she herself strange to tell,
having overlooked the fact
The dinner was served with elegance,
and Mrs. Tucker made herself very
charming. Upon rising to leave their
guests to their wine, she said
Gentlemen, you have dined to-day
with Judge Tucker; promise me that
you will all dine tomorrow with me-"
This was her apology, whereupon
the gentlemen all swere that such a
wife was beyond price. The Judge
then explained the situation, and the
next day there was noble banquet.

WHY iseu Smoke

peat the experiment. When opened

vince me. My lips, tongue, gums md
palate were SO thoroughly nicotinized
by fifteen minutes smoking that later
fumes had ne perceptible effect Let
any old smoker try the experiment and
he will find that the last half of a pipe
or cigar, except that it peases to see
the smoke, is absolutely worthless.

Thompson, was engaged few months
ago by the Sultan of Zanzibar to max
a geological tour of his dOmini0ns,
hoTing to find coal. Mr. Thompson had
been out few months, along the river
Rouma without finding any coal, when
his Majesty, in great disp,easure, dis
missed him, apparently under the i'm
preston that q seOlogist ought to fad
coal whether it existed or not. He had

for more than the time he had been
actually employed, with an addition of

that ben" ButterwOrth is one Of the

his position hourly. At daybreak this

EDITOR SALEM REPUBLICAN, Allow
me to announce through IyOur columns
that am no longer candidate for Rep
resentative to Congress. The contest
so far has settled the fact that no man
can go to Congress from this district
without a free and lavish use of money,
and as 1 have no "bar'P' to open nor dis
position to do so, feel it's useless to
prOlOng the contest so far as 1 am con-
cerned. Money and official patronage
will "bOss" this district until Republi-
cans wake up to true knowledge of
their baneful influence.
In withdrawing my name l beg to say
that | thank and am grateful to my
friends who have so far stood steadfastly
by me in the contest against him who
in 1880 pledged his faith to me not to
run against me in 1882, and who as late
as the 7th of March last, in letter to me
which he has himself since published,
declared that if he was to be continued
longer in Congress it would be without
seeking on my (his) part" From a con-
test wherein calumny exhausted itself
against me, retire with the conscious
ness that have said or done nothing to
cause regret to an honorable man or
shame to his friends.
Yours very respectfully,
