Senator Ingalls, studied law in Massa-
chusetts, and as soon as he was admitted
to the bar started to Kansas with $40 in
his inside pocket. He opened an Office
near Atchison. His law library was
made up Of three books, and the whole
of his furniture was chair and table.
His first client was a carpenter, and his
fee was paid in kind. He got atable and
high desk for his legal services, and
this desk painted green is kept in the In
gals family today as one of its most pre-
cious pieces of furniture. 1t belongs to
Ingalls, son, Ellsworth, who carried it
with him to college and who probably
now uses it as part of his Office furni-

WASHINGTON, D. g., June 12.-It is
stated upon good authority that William
Walter Phelps, Minister to Germany, will
resign his position and run for Congress
in his old Patterson, N. j., district. There
are so many broad-gauged Republicans
who will drop out of Congress that the
party will find itself badly handicapped.

Danger of Gas and Geyser Baths.

AS is well known, the geyser bath is an
ordinary bath with a geyser attached to
it. The geyser is a kind of urn, gener-
ally standing on the edge of the bath,
into which the cold water from the
main runs over plates heated by series
of gas burners, which are contained in
itself, and then runs out at the other
side into the bath at given uniform
heat. At a meeting of the Balloon so
ciety of Great Britain, one of the men,
bers gave a sad experience with the gas
bath His son had entered bathroom
provided with the geyser apparatus, and
half an hour afterward was found in
the water dead, suffocated by the deadly
gas generated by the bunsen burners.
The society was so impressed by the
facts adduced that it passed the follow
ing resolution "That this meeting is
of opinion, in view of the many fatal ac-
cidents that have arisen by gas and gey-
ser baths, due to want of more init
mate knowledge of their nature, that the
time has now come when the possibility
of further fatalities should be avoided" $"
They further submit to the secretary of
state a presentment with the view Of
compelling the makers to stamp into the
metal work of the apparatus these "di-
rections for use" Caution-The bath
must be filled while the room is being
ventilated, and before closing the door.
When filled, turn off gas and water.
The bath must on no account be entered

The Natives of Serapit,

The population of Serapit turned out
to see u.s. The women were a strange
contrast to the men in appearance
While the latter were as lean as whip
ping posts and uglier than most monkeys,
the former-at least those under 90 or
Severe plump, solidly built, full bos-
omed creatures, and there were at least
half dozen in the crowd before us who
might fairly be termed good looking.
But the older members of the COM
munity, the women especially, almost
pass my powers of description to give an
idea of their weird ugliness. K. tersely
summed them up as "baked monkey"
but monkey would at least have had a
covering of hair, whereas these dreadful
persons had nothing but their very
scanty clothing to conceal any part Of
the leathery integument that was SO
tightly shrunken over their skeleton
bodies, and looked so hard and dry that
you expected to hear it crackle when
they moved Their faces seemed to con-
sist solely Of skin drawn over skull
without a particle of flesh and looked
precisely as if some one had tried to
make a mask out of old leather, and
failing had thrown it down in disgust
and stamped on it. Yet they seemed
neither decrepit nor idiotic. The men
carried their complement of arms; one
old fellow had girded on the longest
and crookedest sword there He looked
like Death with his scythe. A woman,
who resembled one of the dried mum
mics of blacks found in North Queens
land terminated, was pounding paddy
in wooden mortar, so concluded that
appearances were deceptive and that
they were not nearly so old as they
looked. Indeed, the Malayan races are
not long lived and really old people are
very scarce-such an instance as the
late Sultan of Brunei, who lived to
nearly 100, being almost unheard of.

Changed the Babies,

In Nordhausen there is cafe in which
one room is specially reserved for the
cabmen belonging to the rank outside.
The other evening the large hall of the
cafe was hired for fete, and after
supper, when dancing began, those
fathers and mothers who had brought
their babies with them found that the
latter interfered with their enjoyment.
The perambulators containing the sleep
ing infants were accordingly pushed into
the adjoining cabmen's room to be out
Of the way. The cabmen, angry at the
infantile invasion, demonstrated, but, as
no notice was taken Of their objections,
they hit upon plan Of revenge. Wait
ing till the pleasure seekers were COM
pletely engrossed with their dancing,
they secretly changed the babies. When
the fete was over, the parents came,
looked out their own perambulators,
and wheeled them home; but found, TO
their horror and amazement, when they
lifted out the occupants, that they had
got the wrong babies. Court Circular.

The Bid Was Withdrawn.

In Jacksonville, Fla, in the winter Of
1913, an auction sale of the personal
estate of deceased planter, comprising
some seventy or eighty slaves and other
"chattels," was held in the public market
place. ! was glad of the opportunity to
see for myself how such things were
done. On beginning the sale the auc-
tioneeS announced that families would
not be separated, but would be sold in
lots : Aftersa number of "lots" had
been duly brought to the block and
knocked down to the highest bidder, a
bright looking boy was brought forward
and placed upon thestand. The aucti ,neer
at the same time called an old colored
man among the crowd to come up and
stand beside the boy. He did so, and the
auctioneer then said:
Gentlemen, the old man is this bows
father; he lives In the West Indies, and
is free man. He wants to buy the boy
and take him to his home and make him
free. He bids $500. which is all the
money he has,"
The intent of this statement was evil
IDENTIFY to discourage any advance on
that bid, and it touched a sympathetic
chord in his audience The crowd
watched the proceedings for a minute
or two in silence, while the auctioneer
dwelt upon the bid of $500, and was
calling it for the third and last time,
when, from the outskirts of the crowd,
voice bid Fifty" Every eye was at
once turned in the direction of the bid

ing fellow, a typical slave trader in
appearance. The auctioneer paused q
moment, looked annoyed, and then re-

had. And now" said he, 81 am bid

voices came the cry: Withdraw your

The auctioneer quickly went back to
the original bid, on which he dwelt two
or three times, when down went his

The crowd cheered, and the principal
figure in this little drama who, the mo-
ment before, had been the picture of
despair, hurried down from the stand
smiling and happy.-New York Sun.
