An Audacious Journalist.

John Augustus O'Shea, the famous
war correspondent, has achieved a record
both as journalist and as candidate
for parliamentary honors. Wheni on
the staff of London newspaper he
once, at period of high pressure, owing
to the absence and illness of the mem
bers of the staff, accomplished the un.
paralleled feat of delivering himself O.

On the occasion of vacancy in the
parliamentary representation of thesbor
ough of Ennis in Ireland, O'Shea pre-
sented himself to the constituents, and

TRIALS of q Popular Teacher.

A young woman who teaches school in a
neighboring town is now suffering from
the results of sincere act of kindness
that she recently performed The young
woman thought it would be nice thing
one pleasant, sunny day not long ago to
give the children of her class an outing.
There were about thirty in the cfass, and
they were all youngsters of tender, years.
She informed them at the noon hour that
she would take them for walk in the
afternoon, and at the request of several
who wanted their little brothers and sis
ters to 90 along she gave permission to all
of them to bring their friends if theyichose.
This WAS what caused ali her trouble. She
did not know how popular she was and
what an attraction the prospect of walk
i'll the fields was to the children of the
neigh bOrhood.
When school was over she started out
with her class The route had been pre-
viously announced, and rs they went
along they met contingents of the friends
of the members on every corner, These
all fell in line and swelled the process
sion until it became of really, remark
able proportions, considering that it was
under the charge of one young woman.
Everything went fairly well i'll the city, but
when the fields were reached the children
broke ranks and scattered and the young
woman unable to control them, al
though she did her best
The weather changed and the rain began
to fall, and th"nroung woman gathered bel
charges about ier as best she could and
started for home, the children struggling
along after her The rain was not serious
and most of the children, dropping out oi
line as it neared their homes, reached theil
mothers III safety, but in the hurry some
struggled and were lost, aud through the
early hours of the evening their distracted
parents sought for them, finally discover
ing them in the police station The young
woman is now receiving a great deal O
blame for letting the children go adrift
and she says that probably she deserves it
although it seems to her to be rather hard
in view of her kind intentions-NewY Yorl

Ire4WIy AND SWAY.

Bald Bouncing BET TO Rlackeyesi SEeE
-Oh. leave your stupid meadow, do.
And just for once try my way;
Pull up your roots, dear. every one.
And plant yourself, as have done.
Along the busy highway
you see life here! And more than that
You're seen Yourself. II must be fiat
Beyond all computation
To grow unnoticed hour by hour
One might IA well not be flower.
As win no admiral ion!"
But Blackeyed Susan answered back
That as she'd never felt the lack.
And all her tastes were suited
With birds and butterflies and bees.
And other such simplicities,
Shed stay where she was rooted
Now listen. children. while tell
The fate that bouncing Bet befell-
BY highways dry and dusty.
While meadow blossoms still were bright,
Her pinky bloom had faded white,
Her leaves were brown and rusty
And people passed her where she grew,
And went to look for Blackeyed Sue.
AS might have been expected:
Her yellow blossoms in u vase
Won every body's smiling praise
And poor Bet dropped neglected.

MODERN modes of travel, the tele-
graph and the postal system have
combined tC make this a very small
world. Time was when the people
who lived in one country regarded
distant regions as somewhat myth
cal, as impossible to reach, and as
belonging almost to another sphere.
A person could commit a crime then,
and could disappear as effectually as
though he had dropped off the earth.
Now Americans daily meet acquaint-
anceS on the streets of Paris. and
men who have formerly lived in Osh-
kOsh are not surprised at encounter
ing old friends in Natal. All of
which remarks are peculiarly applica-
bio to the case Of Jack Hallowell, ex-
organist of Chicago church at the
corner of Twenty-fourth street and
Lawndale avenue. Mr.. Hallowell
had pretty wife who sang in the
choir Of the same church, and the
couple were much respected. A short
time ago a Lawndale man went to
England on visit. While there he
met woman who asked him if he
had ever met Jack HallOwell in
America. Now America is a very
small place, and of course the young
man had met Mr.. HallOwell. The
woman who asked the question was
the mother of five children, and was
and is Mr.. HallOwelrs legal wife.
The latter is no longer organist of the
pretty church at Lawndale, nor does
his American wife sing in the choir.
There is just enough Ola moral ia
this story to make any man who has
put the wofld-betw9en himself and
an unpleasant past feel uncomfort.

THE State of Maine has at last an
other controversy in its hands that
has nothing to do with the drink
habit. The attack made by Miss
Frances E. Willard on the gum-chew-
ing habit has proven bone of con-
tention. One of the leading papers
of the State has come out boldly in
approval of Miss Wizards dictum;
but another, published somewhat
nearer the source of the gum supply,
denOunces it in round terms. The
denunciatiOn is craftily put on the
ground of the inherent right of the
citizen-and especially of the citizen

as the doctrine initiates directly
against the prevailing creed in Maine
on the subject of personal freedom,

the ground, sentimental or CONNER

his people, has taken to wandering
among them disguised in plain clothes.
Amusing stories are told of the scant
courtesy which he received last win

as bit of impertinence. The king
must originate every reform himself,
for he is an absolute monarch. and
not even his most progressive subjects
would dare to commit so great a
breach of etiquette as to suggest any
innovation upon established customs.
