Congressman Culberson, of Texas, who
has been selected by the President for a
place on the interstate commerce commits
sion, is one of the brainiest men in Texas.
And he is popular man, not only in his
state but also in Washington. The Presi-
dent could not have appointed man better
equipped for the position. 1t doesn't follow
OF course. that he will make satisfactory
Interstate commerce commissioner. The
probabilities are. however. that he will.

When the Washington people wanted to
secure the national encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic they declared
that guarantee fund Of $4,000 had been
subscribed to meet the expenses of the great
meeting. On the strength of these asser-
tons the encampment was ordered TO be
held in that city. subsequently it was
found that the expense would easily reach
100000. But the enthusiastic Washing
tonians who had the matter in charge in
sisted that no difficulty would be encoun-
tered in raising the amount. Despite all
the glittering claims made ia behalf If the
generosity OF the citizens Of Washington
the amount actually subscribe / is stated by
the Erening Star to be exactly S14,3
This is only little over e-fourih Of what
the Star says was announced by the citi-
zens' committee as having been subscribed.
Now there is TO be some lively hustling on
the part of Pension Shark Lemon to get
funds Really he was argely responsible

and he will chiefly profit by it. Washing
tonians should serenely wait and see him
pay the bill. Unless he treats those veter-
ans mighty nice he might as well shut up
shop. Since be is proflted by the gathering

But ere he spoke three words we seemed
To quarrel
1t wasn't that she pinched or dyed;
She didn'ut. any more than did;
Nor did she smoke. or favor skirts
Divided.
Nor were. so far as could sec,
Her stockings blue, nor red her tresses,
Nor did she love esthetic fads
In dresses.
Nor was it that ever found
Her fringe in curl the least bit lacking,
Or CHANGED to note her shoes in nsed
or backing.
She'd none Of these faults; yet dislike
Grew into hate; | couldn't stop it;
Nor can tell the reason now,
So dropit
That she was handsome I'll admit.
And looked ct times a very goddess,
Nay, more, Venus plus a skirt
and bodice.

Her dark eyes would have graced a Juno.
She walked hke-I forget her name
But you know.
And must tain admit, although
loathed her, not to put it finely
She was clever girl, and sang
Dlvinely.
And was rubicund and plain
As cooks when out of situations,
And envied those who could achieve
FlirLations.
Yet when by some ill-chance we met
My steady pulse declined to flutter,
And I'd no other wish except
To cut her.
While she delighted to invent
Some horrible nickname to dub me-

To snub me.

To hate this Juno Venus Naiad

After stating that Journalist Joe
Howard, Jr., says sit is extremely unfort-
innate for the reputation OF the Press Club
of New York that so few of the really
representative journalists OF the city are
identified with it," the New York Jour
nal Of Finance then proceeds illogically
to marvel thus as this to be wondered at
when the president of the Press Club of
New York attacks fellow j urnalist as a
blackguard by nature, a coward by instinct
and destitute as he is of every manly at
tribute, the contempt of the journalistic
profession can have no terrors for him Pp
Simply because Col. Cockerill chances
to be president of the Press
Club that is no reason why he should be de-
prived OF his right to denounce any person
who deserves contempt. Nor should sucn
people be allowed TO shield themselves be-
hind the Press Club. On the contrary it is
the plain duty of the president to drag them
from such concealment. 1t is pretty well
known that altogether too many people of
that class foist themselves into the press
clubs. So long as they are allowed to re-
main the better class will probably strive
to evsde their company. Whenever the
honorable men Of the profession can Join
the club without being brought into con-
tact with the obnoxious element there will
no longer bs any cause for laDenting the
absence OF representative Journalists Still
the best way to weed out Objectionable
! would be for the representative men to join
the club and unite in putting out parasites.
Illinois grangers are holding aloof from
the proposed Peoples party. They say that
they can see no advantage in it. That APP
pears to be sensible view of the scheme.
But the grangers still hold to their visionary
scheme for getting a trifiing loan of some
thing like s20O,00O.000 for an indefinite
period upon vaguely uuknow security for
! general distribution in the agricultural dis
tricts at the rate of 8 or per cent. interest.
Yet they seem incapable of understanding
why capitalists should be unwilling to lend
them money on their fiuctuating and un-
certain security and precarious income at
the same rate Of interest on which they
would advance money to the government Of
the United States which has millions of the
most substantial realty security and an all
most fabulous fixed income that makes re-
payment abso utely Ger ain.
| Another rather curious reason for divorce
has been brought out at PIttsburg. In his
! application for escape from matrimony Mr.
! William H. Hamilton states that his wife's
name was Jane. But that is not her most
offensive characteristic if he is to be cred
( tied One of her practices was to salute
him with a butchers cleaver and fondle
him with flying fried eggs. Truly an eccen-
trio female, she. Not the least extraordi-
nary part of this 81 gular family argument
is the fact that the husband has nearly a
hundred witnesses who claim to have seen
these interchanges Of connubial affection
while the wife has half as many who declare
/ they didn't see anything of the sort

For novelty Of procedure of wooing an
Ohio man of Chillicothe certainly takes the
prize pumpkin pie. After wasting his
most robust signs over the winsome WAYS
and languishing looks of pretty girl that

cluded to get a chance TO speak to his
divinity by representing himself as an
United States marshal. In that guise he
arrested her on mythical charge of coun-
terfeitiag. As the enterprising George has
just been convicted upon her testimony,

is that the beauteous Miss Ida Somers did
