MIR. Lamar. Ahsentminnshnes..

remember joke told about Lamar when
he was in the senate. He has the reputation
Of being given to writing and thinking III
poetry, and his appearance very often as he
walks along the avenue is very pensive and
absent minded. At one time when he was
living at Wizards he met friend as he was
coming from the senate down by the National
hotel
"Come up and have dinner with me, =" said
Lamar to the gentleman after they had shaken
hands.
The friend accepted the invitation and
started to walk up the street with Mr.. Lamar.
He began the conversation and soon was in.
terested in telling about some occurrence AT
home, but Lamar had fallen into one of his
reflective moods and was not listening to
anything the friend said The space between
the National hotel and Willarl's was passed
over, and, finally arriving on the pavement
In front of the latter hotel, Lamar suddenly
pulled himself together, and, looking around
he recollected that he had friend with him
he had not heard word the gentleman had
said, but, turning to HIM, stretched out his
nand and said;
"Well, this is my hotel. l am very much
obliged to you for walking up the street with
me. Good-by,N and turned to go in.
But the man was not so easily shaken. Hs
laughed and said;
beg pardon, senator; you invited me to
dinner, and l am not going to lose it,
SO did, so did" cried Lamar quickly
and taking his friend by the arm he went in.

Sex and Race.

A constant reader has put the following;
"The Fourteenth amendment to the Federal
constitution, section l, says: 'All persons
born or naturalized in the United States, and
subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citi-
Eens or the United States, and of the state
wherein they reside Section l of the Fif-
teenth amendment to the constitution pro-
yides that: The right of the citizens of the
United States TO vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or any state.

tion Of servitude.'" Is not "racen synonv-

neirht Of chimneys.

A well proportioned chimney of neat de-
sign, from 200 to 300 feet high, says Locorno-
tive, is always an imposing structure, and
an ornament to large manufacturing
establishment, but it may well be questioned
If it is ever worth while to build them over
l5o feet high. Where cost is no considera-
tion there is no objection to building them as
high as one pleases; but for the purely utili.
tartan purpose OF steam making, we have
yet to find case where it was necessary to
build chimney more than $50 feet high, and
in many cases where this height has been
reached equally good results might have
been attained with a shorter chimney, at not
much more than one-half the cost. After a
sufficient height has been reached to produce
draught of sufficient intensity to burn fine,
hard coal, provided the area of the chimney
is large enough, there seems no good mechan
ical reason for adding further to the height
whatever the size Of the chimney required.

Small Things That Xiii,

The newspapers have warned the publis
against swallowing the seed u grapes
oranges, etc, because Of the danger Of such
substances getting into :. small intestinal bag
or cul-de-sac, called by doctors the appendix
vermifornis. This, explains correspondent
in the Hartford Times, is receptacle formed
at the junction Of the large and small intes-
tines, but its use or object no physician knows
1t has been thought to be rudimentary or
incomplete formation - or possibly some
meaningless survival of lost anterior type.
At any rate, its existence, while presenting
no apparent treason for being, j" as the French
say, is, on the other hand, positive and con-
slant source of danger, because of the liability
of its becoming the receptacle of some undi-
gested seed or other indigestible substance.
In that case it produces state Of inflamma-
nation, which, in nearly all cases. proves
fatal. Fortunately, but few seeds among the
great number so heedlessly swallowed seem
to get into this little death trap, although
any one seems likely to lodge there. Perhaps
more cases OF Inflammation of the bowels
than the doctors suspect may be, in reality,
due to this obscure and disregarded cause

A hod carrier named oFarrell had mar
row escape from death the other day. He
was carrying hod of brick under the win
dows of Miss Lightbread's cooking school for
young ladies, when an angel cake, evolved
by member Of the class, slipped from the
window where it had been carelessly placed.
Had it fallen upon O'Farrell doubtless II
would have killed him. But it wasn't that
kind Of a cake; it just drifted out into the
sunshine and eddied and floated and danced
away Off into the dim blue ether, like tbs
ghost of a thistle down-away-aw
until it was lost to human sight. That's
the kind Of cake the girls in Brooklyn make,
my son. Had this paragraph happened in
any other town in America there wouldn't
have been a whole brick left in thet hod. -

and quaint remarks on the bench than any
other judge in Chicago.
On one occasion, when he was sitting in

The young man had just been admitted to
tho bar and was consequently ambitious to
make a reputation, but despite his utmost
endeayorS his client was "sent up for eighteen
months.
After court adjourned the young man
walked over town with the Judge and took
