TWO BAD MEN WHO NET,
The Restaurant Keeper Was Not Nearly
So Persuasive as lie Had Thought.

Two very loud men came into a
neat little restaurant on the West Side
and sat down at the counter They
had good deal to say and they were
very loud about saying it. They made
the waiter mad and then they scared
him into submission. They swore
roundly and wadded the bill of fare uD
into a roll because it had no straw
berry rang" printed upon it. They
made disparaging remarks abut the
lady cashier and completed their Of
Tense by audibly damning the pro-
prietor who would keep such a place.
That was drop too much. The
man who ran the restaurant had been
very bad man in his day, and age
had by no means shortened his arm,
nor bad his right hand lost its cunning
He walked up to the two men without
a shade of trepidation and told them
they would have to be still. He well
remembered the days when he had
damned the starch out of fellows like
that and when he would a little rather
tackle two or three of them at time
than one. But they didn't know any
thing about that.
wv ell. what about 1t If we don't
keep stiil?N asked the hardest looking
of the men.
Then | will simply have to break
your necks and throw you out" said
the proprietor. kindly.
The waiter had laid a patty of butter
down before them and the hardest
looking man tossed it into the face of
the formerly giant crusher. That
was enough. The proprietor moisteu-
ed the thumb and foretinger of his
right hand and laid it on the collar OF
the offender. The next instant the
proprietor described a circle in the air
and came down behind the cigar case.
When he got up the hardest looking
man poured some acid vinegar down
his back and rubbed little celery salt
into his collar Then each visitor
helped himself to toothpick and wan
dered out into the night.

Government is over and over again in
duced to make and confirm appoint
ments of men who, while apparently
working in amity with their respective
administrations and with the white
people they hate. are really doing all
in their power to subyert the white
supremacy; chiefly by pushing black
and colorcd men (whose only qualili-
cations are reading, writing. and un-
bounded inlpudeuce) into subordinate
positions where they may hope to
leayen the official lump. When ladies
are pushed aside in the streets by black
loafers; when the black servants who

when officials of the highest character

which, through Inscriptions inter-

Colonial Office, or even to the House of
Commons. as the utterance of white
men of position the time has come to

No wonder that year by year the
hopes of West Indian whites turn more
and more toward the United States;

HE cODDLeD THEIR BABY.
While His Wife Testified Against Him In
Suit for Support.

One sees odd sights in police court,
but few more curious than that of the
woman who testified to her husband 5
cruelty or urges that he be made to sup
port her, and who, before beginning
To make her points against him, turns
TO him and bids him hold the baby.
The couple have not lived together for
months. says the n. I. Recorder, their
domestic relations are worse than
strained. but when the wife must have
her arms free to impress the Judge by
the eloquence of her gestures, she falls
back at once upon the accustomed and
natural baby-holdcr.
Take her. she SAYS: and he takes
her and sits tending her while her
mother describes his iuiquities.
Give her to me- she SAYS when she
has finished. and he stolidly surrenders
the infant. for these scenes do not often
end rs they would in a novel. in recon-

have given her 81 Little enough to
maintain her and her infant; but
there's shrewd common sense aud a
rough kindliness about those things
often that does not always appear from
the outside. The woman is far more
likely TO get her s. or her 81 regularly

when he makes a speech. In recent
case, in which he was defending a

down the court, jury and spectators

"Gentlemen of the jury, you have
heard me demonstrate the utter inno-
oence of my client. You have also
heard the testimony of the prisoners
