You do not look after your own
members exclusively thenfs

those belonging to the organization,

mostly in the city. but during the

Are you all of one natienality2'
THAT is just where we differ from
most cooks associations. as we are a
cosmopolitan body. There is the
French cooks club, and an organiza-
ton composed entirely of Germans.
But with us it makes no difference
what nationality a man is. Why, a
few years ago you couldn't get de-
cent situation as cook unless you were
a Frenchman. People would say to
a hotel clerk:
What kind of head cook have
you got2'
"A Frenchman' would be the re-
ply, and that was all was needed.
Whether or not he knew anything
about cooking made very little differ
ence, apparently. 1t is not so now,
however. A Yankee can get as good
a place as a Frenchman."

incident entirely true. Paul Coleman,
a negro, who lives about seven miles
from this place. had his sorghum cane
made into molasses In October last,
and while making his crop the barrel
to hold his own was placed on the
ground near the mill and remained
over night Tine bung-hole of the bar
rel was slightly turned toward the
ground The sorghum was made and
the barrel set up in Paul Coleman's
house, and the family have been using
it ever since it was made. All last
fall and this winter the whole family
have been complaining of being sick,
and were strangely affected. The
sorghum got low In the barrel, and
the other day some pieces of skin were
drawn out with the molasses, and on
examination had the appearance of
pieces of snake. The head of the
barrel was knocked out, and large
snake was found dead In the barrel,
but not totally rotten. The snake, it
is supposed, crawled into the buDg-
hole at night, while the barrel was

A CHINESE WEDDING MARCH.
The Din and Noise Attendant Upon
Such Occasions.
S.1A L IL. IT.

had not been in the hotel in Hong
Kong five minutes before my atten-
ton was distracted by terrific noise.
Rushing to the 'front.' balcony 1 was
just in time to see quite a remarkable
wedding procession. At first, from
the general noise and style of the af-
fair, thought it was funeral, but
soon discovered the difference. First
came dozen musicians who were
beating gongs and blowing fish horns,
each apparently, without any refer
ence to the rest. Then followed a
company of men and boys bearing
flags and lanterns. after which came a
series of gilded tables with elabo-
rately carved and pointed canopies
over them, and all sorts of eatables
upon them. The display of fruit was
quite tempting, and l longed for a
slice of the roast pig and roast sheep.
But there were also native dishes
which, by experiment, had found to
be very far from appetizing. Thus
far everything had been arranged just
as a funeral procession would be,
and was composed Of the same feat
ureS.
But now there was a slight depart
ure from the funeral order of things.
There came a magnificent sedan
chair, the windows of which were
fully curtained, but which 1 was told
contained the bride. This chair was
followed by others, also by gaily dec
GRATED jinrikishas, in which were
seated the relatives of both contract
ing parties. More so-caled music
ians followed, and the procession
wound up with a load of boxes,
which supposed contained the mar
riage offerings, and, perhaps, the
brides trouSseau.

Throw 1t Out.
Boston Globe

"Well, said Conductor Jones to a
Globe representative, lone of the
funniest things that ever happened on
my train occurred one day at Bethle
hem. An old man whom | had
noticed in sthc drawing car rs a
very lively and talllative traveller got
off at that station. | was standing at
an open window of the car just as the
train was starting off, when whom
should | see but the jolly old man
rushing towards me from the outside.
He pointed franticatly to a window
Just back of me, eXclaiming rs well
rs he could while trying to catch his
breath:
my valise-lcft it-there-throw
tout"
Turning quickly ] saw a large
black valise in the seat indicated,
and, Selling it, rushed to the rear
platform OF the car, where there was
quite number of gentlemen. Toss
ing it to one of the men, as they block
ed the way SO that | couldn't get
through, l shouted
"rhrow it to the old man there.
Without a moments hesitation the
man did as directed. As the valise
left his hand he made an Intellectual
effort to regain possession of it, then,
with muttered exclamation which |
couldn't comprehend, leaped from
the train, seized the ill fatted baggage
aud was just i'll time to board one of
the rear cars. 1t was all done in an
Instant, although it takes time to tell
the story. In a minute he made
his way forward and angrily asked:
What did YOU tell me throw this
wallis off for2"
BECAUSE the old man wanted it..
We'll, then, he's a thief. That
valiSe is mine.
Then" said l, laughing, fer the
whole situation seemed SO perfectly
ridiculous, why under the sun Gid
YOU throw it off at ALA Didn't you
know your own property2'
Yes, but then it was all so sud
den and you told me to throw it,
aud"
But the roar of laughter that greet
ed his explanation broke short his
sentence, and he was voted leather
medal by the passengers"
was convinced there was some ex-
PLANTATION for the old mans conduct,
for l was personally acquainted with
him, and l knew that he was as
honest as the day was lorg. About
three weeks after | saw HIM at the
depot snd questioned him on the
subject.
Il thought" said he, as his face
grew rouna aud red and his eyes
twinkled with merriment, Il thought
| should die to see that fellow hyper
round after his valise and hustle on
board the train again. l didn't ex-
pect TO cause So much trouble
We'll, where was your valise all
the timer
''Oh, the driver took 1t without my
knowledge and put it On top of the
stage. He's been carrying it around
ever since, and just got it this mo.
ment. Good day ?"

How much do you want, Mary7"

his pocket; ''it can't be a sealskia
sacque. for the winter is nearly over. "
No" she said sit is not sealskln
sacque; but l would really like new
silk for the spring, and you know it's
got to be bought and made, and all
that"
Now" he said, as he handed her
the money, what proof of your affec-
ton will you give me when you want
another dress, since you have given
away your dogl'

given the dog to my sister, and I can

A Dogs Suicide.
Brooklyn Union


A clear case of suicide of a dog
came to the notice of Union reporter
this morning. Mr.. B. R Sheldon,
who resides in Buffalo, n. Y, and
who is at present visiting friends in
Java street, Greenpoint, bought a New
foundland dog on Friday last. The
animal was old and feeble, and was pur-
chased for a companion for Mr.. Shell
don's young son. When taken from
its old master the dog appeared l" e
very much grleved, for he whineG and
mouned as if his cup of sorrow was
full to Overlooking. His food remained
untouched each day. and all attempts
to rouse him from his sullen mood
were unavailing. This morning Mr..
Sheldon started toward Twenty-third
Street Ferry, intending to leave New
York by the early train for the West.
The dog followed him as far as the
corner of Java and West streets, when
he turned toward the river. The gen.
tleman endeavored to call him, but
the dog went direct to the dock, and,
as if permeditated, threw itself into
the river. 1t drowned almost imme-
diately.

The First Lady Telegrapher.

The first lady ever placed in charge
of telegraph Office was Miss Emma
A. Hunter. now Mrs. Smith, of Win
chester, Mass. 1t was in 1851, when
the first line was built from Philadel-
phia to that point. Her salary was
$50 year, but afterward raised to
$3.50. At the end of one year she was
presented with purse of $3.50 by the
managers for her efficiency. The
presence of lady on the line had an
excellent effect as it put stop to OPP
orators sending vulgar messages TO
each other. The next appointment of
this kind was Miss Ella A. Laughlin.
a bright girl of IA, who was given the
Office at Dover, N. FL. She Is now the
wife of G. w. Thompson, a leading
citizen of New Bedford, Mass. F. o.
Smith, of Westchester, claims that
Miss Sarah Bagley was an operator in
his Office in 1916, but she never had
charge of an office.
