Amazed at the Amer.csns

The Ways Of English and Americans are etni
southern nations which have had for many de-
race peculiarities and yet have never ceased TO
wonder says Youths Companion.
When W. d. Howels was consul at Venice,
an attempted burglary Ia the palace occupied
by him, gave occasion for the following sug
gestive Incident:
In my account OF this affair 20 the commissary
OF police said that the burglary occurred one
morning about daylight. when saw the head
or the burglar poering above the window sill
and bis hand extended 70 prey upon my ward
robe.
Excuse me- siguor Console, Z" interrupted the
commissary. how could you see hins"
why, there was nothing 10 the world to pre-
vent me- The window was open"
Tho window was openn gasped the commits
sary; DO you mean that you slesp with your
Most Certainly"
Pardon" said the commissary suspiclousy,
90 al Americans sleep with their windows
81 may venture to say they all do in sum-
ner, answered. Ar least it is the general
CUSTOM
Such thing as this indulgence in fresh air
seemed altogether foreign to the oommissary's
experience, and. but for my Official dignity,
am sure should have been effectually brow
beaten by him.
AS it was, he threw himself back in his arm
chair and stared at me hxedly for some mo-
ments. Then he recovered himself with an
other Pardon" and, turning to his clerk, said:
Write down that, according to the Ameri-
dows open"
But know that for all his politeness he con
sidered this habit relic of the time when we
Americans abode IN wigwams.

Some of the disappointed followers of
certain candidates in the recent speakership
contest have not yet recovered their tenn
pers ami stopped calling hard names. What
possible good can such conduct dos On tn o
contrary it does much harm. There was
absolutely nothing in the contest to justify
the always violent Congressman Fithian in
calling Mr.. Springer stool pigeon" II
he chose to be candidate he had perfect
right to do SO, aud to withdraw when he
pleased and help whom he chose after ward.
Neither the House Of Representatives nor
the state Of Illinois belongs to Mr.. Fithien.
Nor has either been placed under his charge.
AL that he has right to do Is to represent
his own district. That will probably keep
him fully occupied. Long bsfore Mr..
Fithian was noticed Mr. Springer was a
prominent Illinois representative, and he
probably understands his duties quite as
well as his impairment young colleague
could tell him.

By introducing innovations unwarranted
by the paramount precedents of law the
San Antonio grand jury itself is collect
lively locked up in Jail for contempt of
court. Certainly it could not be considered
altogether respectful to judge for the
jury presumably under his instruction to
proceed without his knowledge or consent
to hud an indictment against the presiding
judge for alleged attractions of law. No
judge could reasonably be expected to SYM
pathize with such a novel proceeding nor
approve Of its continuance. Very likely
no state supreme court ever had such a case
to pass upon before.

It Is sincerely to be hoped that the Boston

correct, although theory and practice are, as a
rule, widely different in their results:

roast piece of beef better than this. Why,
its burnei to a crisp.
Daughter--I don't see how I'm TO blame. The
fire was too hot, l suppose.
Father-And why didn't you look out that the

Daughter-The man always attended TO that
