templated suicide. He was, however, dis
suaded by the friar, who told him that the
fool who kills himself never mistakes the
wrong person. K
After talking the matter over with his
wife that night Romeo left on che early
train for Mantua Juliet's father not know
ing that his daughter was married, imag-
med he was doing her a favor by hunting
her UP desirable husband. but Juliet, to
use the language Of poesy, kicked. The old
man was something OF kicker himself
There was scene, and Juliet hunted up
the good friar at the little mopastery around
the corner.
5 His advice was for her to take dose Of
some drug which he kept on tap for such
emergencies. The result would be that she
would appear to be dead, She would then
be consigned to the morgde Of the Capulets,
but would regain consciousness In fosty-two
hours, when Romeo would be on hand with
delivery wagon to remove his property.
This scheme presented few attractions
to Juliet. 1t occurred to her that 1t would
be unpleasant il the coroner were 10 hold
an autopsy. However, she took the risks,
and was duly gathered to her relatives IN
the tomb.
Thus far the plan worked all right, and
there would have been no tragedy II the
friar had either telegraphed to Romeo or
gone himself. Instead of that he sent a
messenger boy, and if that boy is still alive
he is probably playing marbles in the sub,
urbs Of Verona At all events he never de-
livered the message.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1889-06-05

When Romeo picked up the Verona Daily
News, and read that he was a widower, he
Immediately purchased a family supply OF
poison, and started for his native town.
1t was late when he reached the quaint
old city. It was after business hours, and
the morgue Of tn, Capulets was closed.
Not even the jsnitor was on the premises.
Armed with o monkey-wrench and q
dark lantern, Romeo managed to gain I'D
mission. Unfortunately this was justabou
the hour when Count Paris was in the habit
OF weeping at the tomb When he saw
Romeo with the dark lantern and the mon
key-wrench, he probably supposed that the
intruder was medical student working in
the interests of science.
Harsh words followed. Romeo warmed his
sword in the palpitating gizzard of Count
de Paris, who went into the real-estate bust
ness permanently, 80 to speak.
Romeo, remembering that it was the hour
to take his medicine, follows the directions
on the bottle. Juliet awakes in order TO
stab herself with fatal effect, while the
friar hurries away to get up his abb, in case
he should be suspected. He is arrested and
brought back. The surviving members of
the families flock in and form tableau
with the Prince as chairman. The friar
arises to a question Of privilege. He ex.
plains that he is not hired by the undertak-
ers to work on commission, as might be
supposed, but was acting as mutual friend.
The Prince pronounces the benediction,
and the curtain falls to slow music.

pensioning Government Employees.

The Civil-Service law protects Govern.
;ment clerks in their positions, If worthy.
When the law was pending objections were
made by Senators and Representatives, who
feared that it might establish a ''class" or
a .'caste" system in Washington. Now
comes well-organized movement to ere
tire Government civil-servics employees"
after period of years, on the ground that
they are as entitled to public support as are
the military and naval officers and men. 1t
is reasonable to predict that, after several
years of agitation, this thing may be accom-
plished. 1t Is not enough that the Govern
ment shall pay better salaries for less work
than private enterprises can afford to do;
but the public Treasury must support those
who become aged and are poor because i'm
provident. A l.tf+r

HIS HALO DIDN'T FIT.

Good Story ON Sunset Cox, the Brilliant
and Witty New York Congressman.
~ don't see why Sam Cox should attack
me as he has done in the Times of this
morning." said Hon. W. d. Kelley, the fa-
Their of the House, just after the passage Of
his famous tariff bill. "All others have
been congratulating me, and Cox is the
last man I'd have expected to publicly criti
else me-"
"Why, you ought to understand that, !"
remarked Congressman Thomas, Of I'LL
nois. "Sam is in the condition Of the man
in Heaven who was not satisfied. A friend
Of his came to Heaven one day, met him
and asked how he liked the Eternal Home"
"Pm not altogether pleased" he replied
II caught cold coming over the river, the
damp clouds gave me rheumatism, and, as
came through the gate, one Of my wings
yet; and, besides, my halo don't At me-"
''Thstis whstis the matter with Cox His
halo don't fit him." ., aa4.ttt t.h.
Just as he finished the story and . little
c0terie in the hotel corridor commenced to
laugh q newspaper man Rlided quietly away,
writing notes as he went The next morn
ing the World had the halo story, and the
laugh was on Sunset Cox for long time.
A few months later, while crossing the Des.
brosses street ferry to New York, Captain
Thomas met Mr.. Cox, who took him by the
arm and led him back to be introduced Il
Mrs. Cox. Immediately after the lntroduc.
