why Pope Refused To Come 10 n
Dinner.
From Chambers journal.
When Pope decided that he could not
afford 10 dine with the Duke of Montagu
because each dinne involved a disburse-
ment of five g~uineas to the servants of the
Montagu house, the duke ent with his
subsequent invitation TO the poet an
order for the amount in question. Thus
the difficulty attending "vails' or tips was
overcome i'm this instance. To avoid pay
ing them vas impossible, and, indeed. a
writer in the Worid-famous for its con-
tributions from Lord Observation-Disclosures
that a certain noble lord 10y con-
%nivance with his servants,0really
compelled his guests TO defray the
cost of the entertainment afforded
them! Al length, however, il was decided
To put n stop TO this system of ~extortion,
and ut a meeting of gentlemen i'm Scot
land in the year 1760 il was resolved that
in visiting one another they would give
no money to servants nor allow their W
domestics 10 tax any money from their
guests. A few days later the Honorable
Company of Scots Hunters, ut their meet
ing held In Edinburgh. came To a similar
determination, although one noble ord
threatened 10 knock down the first SER
want who refused to accept n gratuity.
The servant themselves naturally looked
upon the movement with disfavor; and in
11a certain gentlemen who had resisted
the payment of walls were attacked in
Ranelagh gardens by an angry mob of
footmen.

DETROIT, Mich. July THE Detroit
Museum of Art has some very clever plas-
ter casts of noted statuary, including
Venus" "The Dying Gladiator" and
others Of the nude type. The only trouble
with these casts is that they represent the
human form as made by the Creator,
without dress or robes. Some old maids

modesiy addressed "A letter To the direct
ors last week, asking that the nude stat

petitioners, backed up by the Presbyte-

To-day the directors made public their
order that the offending statue be covered

at the directors, and il Is probable that
public opinion will make them change

A Thames-st. m had her curiosity
aroused, Friday afternoon, by some one
snoring on her premises. She looked
around for some time without finding the
intruder and at last discovered a stranger
asleep in her cherry tree, hanging OH TO

had fallen to the ground, but the nan
seemed in no danger of falling. He was
not sleeping the sleep of the just man, but
vas apparently morphcused 10y gin. The
fact that he had been stealing the cherries
was not to be considered. The only
problem worth solving was the way TO get
this snorer to the ground whole. The
young and strong men of the neighbor-

so they could get a holding grip upon him,
and then he was awakened, and helped to
the ground. He was surprised 10 think he
had raised such an excitement, expressed
his thanks 10 his rescuers and retired in

ago than last saturday night, Mr.. Blaine
told his audience that Pennsylvania, with
the bordering states Of Ohio, Indiana, New
Jersey Delaware, Maryland and West
Virginia, constitute the key to the Presi-
Dental election of 1892.
He warned his hearers that if those
states should be carried by the Democrats
this year the fact would be in effect de-
tcrminative Of the result in 1892. He said
he had gone to Philadelphia to give the
people of that city warming that 'as Penn

WAsHINGroN, Nov, 9,-Returning
members Of Congress Of Republican
proclivities are outsp0len in holding
Senator Quay responsible for the defeat
of last Tuesday. They do not charge
that Quay being at the had of affairs
had any direct influence on the result
except in Pennsylvania, but they assert
that he was the means of preventing
them from receiving money which was
contributed toward their support, and
declare that if they had received this
money the result would have been very
different. Said one member this after
noon, who will not be member of the
next Congress:
"Quay, as the chairman of the ma
tional committee, was able to raise all
the money he wanted from manufac-
turers, and, in addition, his $40 certiti-
cate scheme, which has been in opera
ton for nearly a year, brought a large
sum into the treasury. All this money
was used by Quay solely in Pennsyl-
vania, and outsideof that state members
had to raise their own funds and do the
best they could to get money 1t not
only cut of all financial assistance from
the congressional campaign committee,
but il hurt us in other ways, as when
certain men were asked to contribute
they said that they had made their con-
tributiuns to the committee, and of
course could not be expected to CON
tribute twice over. 1t is charged that
large sum Of money which was raised in
Pennsylvania to help Major Mckinley
was diverted BY Quay, and was used by
him in his own state
The charges against Quay were freely
made during the campaign, and caused
good deal Of feeling between him and
Clarkson. The latter, who was really
in charge of the congressional campaign,
was hampered because of the lack of
funds, and he blamed Quay for it,
Now that the elections are over, it is
believed that it will not lie long before
Commissioner Of Pensions Raum is
asked BY the President to hand in his
resignation. The President, it is under
stood, has been investigating the Raum
matter very carefully for some time, and
would have asked for Raum's resigna-
ton when Congress adjourned had he
not been afraid Of the effect politically,
Now that no more is to be feared from
that quarter he can go ahead, and 1t is

nations that will be sent to the Senate
