-Four Good Dinner Stories.

Here are some dining stories. says the New
York EceHtHg Sun-all good. all new, and each
having its affidavit attached to ii. Let's give
the Englishman the precedence.
He was dining with company Of Americans
somewhere IN this country, aud the waiter an
nounced the dessert after the manner Of his kind
Peach plum-app.e- blsckbeTy-lemon--cu
tard pie" You may bring me peach-plum-
-blackberry-lemon pie.r said the Eng
lishman, IN one wild plunge into unknown ter
rors- With sly twinkle as he departed the
waiter asked; What's the matter with the Gus
t saipp PEI while ali the diners smiled till the
dishes cllnked together. Aud by and by. when
an the pies were laid out before him, the Eng
llshman looked up ''n contemplative fash
ION, and asked ruminatively: by the way,
way!'
That reminds us-hut that's another story. as
huoyard hipiing says, and It's the Irishman's
turn now.
He was newly arrived, this MiIesian person
age, and he didn't propose to be borne at once,
Dody ana soul, out of the cid loyalty into the
new. But he, too, was at meat, and was minis

asked the waiter. Then all the Irish blood in his
VEINS rose at once. No, ye DON'T he said.

Scene, Delmonico's; time, few evenings ago.
A party of men and women near the center of
| the room.
| Mrs. Youngwife-Tom, dear, who is that dis
| misunderstanding man near the door: always
see MIN. Does he dine here regularly?
| Iom-Ies, my dear; he has dined here for
ten years past
| Mrs. H.-ls he rich, Toms
| Iom-No love; he has dined here for ten
| years past.
And now for the "that-reminds -meh story.
The naif question of the Englishman over his
pie suggests some consideration of the differ
| ence between the ponderosity of the English
| and the quick darling of the American vita
consideration which we shall only suggest here
| by illustration Not long ago London Truth
was moved to relate that story familiar to all
good story loving Americans, which we tell in
| this crisp way:
Testy Old Man Ito small boy}--Boy. what do
you mean by always hollering just when I'm
| going by?
Small Boy-Old fellow, what do you mean by
always going by just when l m hollering?
Now hear Truth A somewhat irate old vii
| lage squire was once moved to notice that
certain youngster seemed always in the act of
halloolng while he was passing by. And so one
| day he said to him, with that arrogance which,
1t seems, characterizes village squires: 10y
why is it that you always appear to be halloo-
| ing whilst that am passing by"
10 which the boy responded with that readi-
ness which characterizes village boys: ''Why
IS IL that you are always passing by whilst that
am halloong?"

While policeman's lot may not be a

that the Gar of Russia ought gladly to ex-

An Hibernianism.

number of patriotic sons of Erin were
seated around table one night discussing a

He then leaned over to the owner Of the dollar

All the romance has been taken out of
Stanley's nice little love story by CORE
spondent who, in communication to a
northern contemporary, declares that Miss
Dorothy Tenant is not the original of
Millais' Yes or No. as seems to be the i'm
preston in this country. She did pose for
another picture by the same artist called
No. in which she is represented reading q
letter she has just written to the rejected
one. Yes or No represents young woman
who is not in the least like Miss Tenant.
Miss Tennapt is fair and not the brilliant
brunette the New York papers have repre-
sented her to be. Her sister is very dark.
There is a blemish in Miss Tenants beauty.
She has one eye much larger than the other
Never mind, even if Miss TennRnt's features
do not adorn Millais' picture, she serves to
adorn pretty tale. notwithstanding the
alleged defect in her eye.

After the Battle.

He was not missed-they passed away
And left him all alone,
Save that the dead around him lay,
Still as the blood stained stone,
Or wounded, writhing on the clay,
That choked the rising groan.
Slowly, but surely, ebbed his life,
Yet ere the sun arose,
Near to the last scene of the strife,
Where thickest lay the foes,
And broken boats upon the shore
And corpses floating far,
Midst riven sail and broken oar
And blood-stained signs of war,
He dragged his wounded form, to die
Where he had loved to be,
And on the shaded shore to lie
Gazing upon the sea,
With thoughts that bore his soul on high
On wings of reverie.
Without a sigh, without a groan,
In love and charity,
He met death on the sands alone
At sunrise by the sea. NH

1t was rumored that the purchase by Mr..
Bacon of the city of Baltimore's stock in the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad at par for
SS, 25O. 900 was in the interest of the Rich

that the purchase was made for the Garrett

the Baltimore and Ohio, and this is most
likely the case.

The convention of the Mutual Life .ni

The convention Of the Mutual Life and
Accident Underwriters. now in session in
New York, will take some action to secure
federal supervision of insurance. The aim
OF insurance men for some years has been
to obtain uniform laws to govern insurance
in the various states, but it seems quite i'm
probable, if not almost impossible, that
such a result will be attained on account of
the opposition and competition of the differ
emit interests in insurance in most of the
states.

The Sugar Bounty.

The Senate finance committee hasn't yet
decided what course it will pursue with
regard to the bounty of 2 cents pound-o on
sugar for which the Mckinley bill provides.
1t is quite evident that if the bounty
feature should be retained it would be the
source of a great deal of annoyance if the
bill should become a law. Senator Blair
has already intimated that his maple sugar
producing constituents purpose to insist
upon having the bounty. They cannot
understand why they are not just as clearly
entitled to it as those who make sugar out
of cane, sorghum or beets.
OF course, the farmers who produce corn,
cotton, wheat and other articles will not be
satisfied for the sugar producers to draw
large sums out of the treasury while they
are barely able, by the most economical
management of their resources, to make
living and meet their obligations.
The sugar planters understand
that if a bounty were given to them it
would be either taken away from them
within year or two because of the dissat-
lsfaction it would create among those who
cultivate other agricultural products, or the
bounty system would have to be extended
to other agricultural interests. 1t would
bankrupt the treasury to extend the system.
The fact is, the republicans do not know
what to do with respect to sugar. Unless
they make sugar free they cannot make any
reduction in the revenues. Indeed, it is
doubtful if the Mckinley bill reduces the
revenues, notwithstanding the removal of
the duty on sugar. 1t increases the duty on
so many articles that it might be properly
called a bill to increase the revenues. The
truth is, the Republican party has too many
interests to serve to legislate with respect to
the tariff in a way that is fair to the people.

There Is one thing paramount in
this congressional convention that the
CAT would like to see, and that is
honesty of action from principle and
a sense of right Delegates should
not allow petty differences to come be-
tween themselves and the wish of the
people. By this we do not mean cas-
es, should there be any, where county
elections were carried by fraud or
votes purchased, but those delegates
who we're honestly elected by a ma
jority of the republicans in their re-
spective counties. As Chairman
Picker well said, you are here as rep
resentatives of the republican party,
and not in the interest of one candi-
date. This being true, you should not
allow yourself to be influenced in the
least by the schemes and persuasions
of your opponents. "Be sure you
are right, and then 60 ahead" The
only way to keep a pure government
is to keep pure ballot box.

TERMS,

in many instances is not first-class,
our citizens have entered into the
work of doing their best with zeal
and desire to please. A more manly
and better appearing class of people is
not to be found in Kansas than is
here among us now. We believe del
egates are here to do the will of their
constituents, in fair, just and hon
orable manner. Colby indeed feels
highly honored with the presence OF
the people of the Sixth district, and
in their behalf the CAT again says
"Welcome." and trusts that your stay
may be pleasant, profitable and agree
able.
