Seven Dollars for a Beard.

- Seven DOLLARS Tor y HenrO.
The perennial fight between the railroad
people and the indefatigable ''scalper" goes
On aPace.
The .'scalper'' once had things pretty
much his own way. The purchaser of a
ticket from New York to Indianapolis who
only wanted to go az far as Chicago, sold
the surplusage Of his ticket to a Chicago
''scalper,' who turned it over to some one
going from Chicago to Indianapolis, and
made money. Cheap easternward tickets
for Boston left a good margin of profit on q
barter in New York.
BY and bv the railway people got dis
gusted with this practice and set their wits
to work to devise ways and means of cir
c~umventing the "~scalper." 1t did no good
to forbid the transfer of a ticket. 1t did
little more good to have q name written on
it. People Of slender pocketbook and
economical tendency were as willing to be
considered John Wilkinson az James Har-
ris. So that the companies were compelled
to devise some more concrete form OF cir
convention. z
The other day a California man discov-
cred the present status of the railway and
scalper row.
This California man has been spending
some time in New York, and when he made
up his mind to steer westward again he
went to a scalper and received directions in
the purchase Of a ticket to San Francisco
and return, the plan being, of course, to
sell the return portion Of the ticket at the
California metropolis. The purchasers name
went on the ticket In due form, and then
the scalper described to the California
man that when the conductor punched the
ticket he would follow a plan BY, which the
punch hole OF q series of lines n
spaces indicates not only whether the
traveller il u man or woman but whether,
if he ia a man, he has o beard, a mustache
or is clean shaven.
The purchaser in this instance had a full
beard, and the scalper explained that this
was commercially unfortunate since it re-
duced the possibilities Of ready sale in San
Francisco. Only a man with a full beard
could buy and use the ticket for the east
ward trip.
"If you had no beard" said the scalper,
II could sell you this ticketa little cheaper
.'Do YOU want me to shaver" demanded
tho California man
"Well. pursued the scalper, at would be
worth just 81 to you to get rid of that
beard.' &.l.. rs. MATT LAMAR.

of Washington life occurred the 9TH

wealthy resident of the capital and
who moves in the most exclusive So
ciety was presented, at an afternoon
tea, to lady, the wife of Wild
Western Senator. She eyed the
gentleman curiously for q moment,
then inquired abruptly: "What are
you? Senate or House Z" Unfor-
tunately, have not the honor to be-
long to either" responded Mr.. X.

rejoined Mr.. X. "Well, l declared
she CALCULATED. "Is it possible? Why,
sir, I've been in this city for nine

TIE BOOK TRUST KNOCKED OUT.
A Gard to the Public.

Some six months ago we began the
publication Of our reprint Of the FAM
Gus Encyclopedia Britannica in 25

voIune. The price of the English edi-
ton always has been and still is SIS 90
per volume, and the Scribner edition
$500 per volume in the cheapest bind
ing.
That the public appreciates SO great
bargain is shown by the fact that
over half q million rolumes of this re-
print have been sold lie IS than six
months.
This elegant new edition we still offer
at the same price, $3.50 per Uolumae
This is the greatest bargain euer knoUn

complete on small easy payments, to
suit the convenience of customers.
Remember this is not an abridge-
ment, but the great Edinburgh ninth
edition, reproduced page for page, with
important articles on American sub
jects rewritten to date by eminent Am
erican authors, and new maps, later
and better than in any other edition.
We further announce that we have in
preparation three volumes of "Ameri-
can Additions and Revisions." thor
oughly supplementing the original
work. With these supplemental vol
umes you will have at small cost an En-
