Saturday, when We received a notice
from Assistant United States Treasurer

The Sunday Surprise .

A charming little scene was, accord
ng to the German Post, enacted the
other day in front of the Imperial
Palace, at Charlottenburg. Early in
the morning, little girl of about
years, dressed in white, appeared in
front of the palace, carrying a pretty
basket filed with fresh and .dewy vol
let's. Somewhat shyly she went up TO
the guard at the gate, who looked down
on the little creatures In mute surprise
and said to him, please, Mr. Guard, /

the Emperor. The soldier sent her to
an official III the palace. and here again
she repeated her childish request,
whereupon one Of the officers on duty
went out, and returned after a few
minutes to take the child with him.
She was taken into a drswing-room,
where the Empress at once appeared.

touched by the charming picture which
presented itself 10 her, ''the Emperor
has not yet got up, but will give him
the flowers and be will be very pleased
with them" Then she took the
basket, kissed the child, asked her who
she was, and lead her to the door. 1t

How Gallagher Came to "Let Her
CO."

There have been scores of explana-
tons as to how the term "Let her go,
Gallagher" originated, but it is safe to
say the correct explanation has never
been made. Daniel J. GaIlagher, a
well-known printer of Philadelpnia, is
really responsible for the phrase.
Some years ago, he became stage suuck,
and in order to get behind the scenes
daily, consented 10 assist in lifting and
lowering the curtain. The ropes be-
came entangled in the hands of the
typo, and at critical moment the cur
tain refused to drop. The dying vi
lain on the stage prolonged the agony
as long as he could, until the stage
manager became frantic, and seeing
that The NOVICE did not understand
what to do, shouted, in full bearing Of
the audience, LET her go, Gallagher
Let her go!" And from that day for
Tarl the phrase became street slang,
