High Living At No Expense.
From the BI6dIO Courier

There is a wealthy man of this city who ever
since he became welto-d has been pestered by
the eutreaties of local insurance agents to take
out policy in favor of his wife and little ones
Not long ago he determined to be revenged on
them. He called on certain agent and told
him that at last he was thinking seriously of
taking out policy say for SIC, 900, but that be-
fore deciding the matter he wished to examine
the inducements of two or three other com
panes. Certainly" said the agent, but do
come and dine with me at the City club to-mor-
row" with pleasure" The rich man walked
away and visiting three or four more agents
told them the same story-that he was thinking
of taking out policy of $4,000 or so, but was
not quite decided yet in what company he
should insure. Each and all of them extended
him an earnest invitation to Come and dine
with me tomorrow evening or, What
do you say to little supper at Blanks,
where we can talk it over" or I'm
going to open a bottle of Madeira tomorrow
evening. Come around and I'll explain our
plan in full. The wealthy man wihked to him
self as he left these agents. and accepted all
their civilities, and for two weeks his family
hardly saw him. for he continued to hesitate
dine him and wine him, until at length. having
enjoyed himself immensely at the expense of
the insurance companies, he one DAY sat down
I'm his Office ard wrote each of the agents little
note in which he STAGED that he had been CON
WINGED of the better advantages to be gained by
insuring in another company" and regretted
that he could not take out policy with YOU
The agents each read this note with tears in
their eyes and swear words on their lips and
placed a sum ranging from S25 to $50 to the
debit expense account.

Gresham's Boom.

There is growing sentiment among the
Republicans for Judge Gresham for Presi-
dent. If Blaine were out of the way his
chances of being nominated would be re
markably good. The uncertainty with re-
spect to Blaine holds the sentiment in favor
of Gresham in check. 1t is noticeable,
however that while he is now the first
choice of only a few delegates, he is the
second choice of great many.
If it becomes certain, when the conven-
ton meets, that Blaine will not accept the
nomination, Gresham's boom will at once
become formidable. No candidate will
enter the convention with enough votes to
give him the nomination, and it is very
doubtful if any one of those having a large
following can draw enough from any other
candidate to secure the nomination. In
that event compromise candidate will be
looked for. and who is so available, from
every point of view, as Greshams
He is a man of ability and spotless integ-
rity. He has good war record, is popular
and is conservative with respect to economic
questions. Messrs. Sherman, Allison and
other candidates will do we'll to keep their
eyes upon him. because there is very fair
prospect that he will get the prize for which
they are so earnestly contesting.

Long Live the King.

". II. h. in America.
THE King is dead!"
The velvet pail, with its thick silver fringe,
On the cold marble pavement streams
The guttering candles burning by the bier
Flare in the gusts; and as he mods and dreams
drowsy monk prays for the souls repose-
Thrusts his lean fingers in his sleeves of serge,
Watching alone; the hour is not yet come
For knell, and requiem, and funeral dirge
Long live the King"
The smiling courtiers pause amid the feast
And pledge their VOWS to their new liege in
wine;
Ger nodding plumes, and silks, and flashing
gems
thousand tapers with soft brilliance shine;
Laughter and jest blend with the sound of flutes,
OF harp and viol, and the heavy air
Is sweet with musk; only little page
Weeps as he waits without upon the stair.

A Story of Mr.. Benton.
From the Ne,o York Tribune.

from Ue NetC YORK ITIOUne.
Senator Vest was entertaining the Commerce
Committee OF the Senate recently with some
anecdotes illustrative of the character of
Thomas H. Benton, his eminent predecessor,
who represented the State of Missouri in the
Senate from 1921, the year of Missouri's admis-
sion to the Union, until 1851. Among other
stories that the Senator told was the following
concerning Mr.. Benton's vanity. one of his few
failings:
1t was necessary at one time that an opera
ton SHOULD be performed on Senator Benton.
The physician in attendance told Mr.. Benton
that the operation was necessary
But is not this dangerous operation, doc
tori" asked the Senator. did not Pliny, the
elder die as a result of a similar operation per
formed upon him?"
''The operation is not dangerous as now per-
formed" answered the physician. Mod
ern science has rendered it comparatively sim
pie"
The operation was performed and Mr.. Benton
survived it. few years later, as he lay sick al
most unto death, he sent for the same physician
and made him the following request:
Doctor wish you would write after my
death, full history of the operation you per
formed on me. And wish you to say that this
operation was performed on Pliny, the elder,
and he died; that it was performed on Thomas
III. Benton and he survived it,"
