Mr.. Kulpepper, an epicurean smoker, was
travelling on the railway with passenger from
Berlin who was smoking horrid cigar. AS all
hints and signs proved unavailing, says the
Ntieste Ndchrichten, Mr.. Kulpepper had re-
course to an often tried experiment. Rising
from his seat he politely said:
will you allow me to open the Window"
At the same time he quite accidentally
brushed against tine hand Of his fellow passen.
ger, causing him TO drop his cigar. Mr. Kul-
pepper had the additional misfortune to stem
on it, and said, In alarm:
"Oh! be- thousand pardons. Allow me TO
offer you one OF mine, they are not half bad"
with your kind permission" answered the
Beriner, quite pleased. He took three cigars
out Of the case presented TO him, and put them
into his pocket, saying:
These are flrst-rate brand; I'll smoke ,em
on Sundays"
And with that he proceeded to light another
one of his own.

Again Side-Tracked.

The force bill has been displaced again
| this time by the epportionment bill-and it
is pretty safe to say that it will not be
brought before the Senate any more. Per-
haps Senators Hear, Spooner, Aldrich and
the other force bill senators are now salts
fed that the bill cannot be passed They
certainly ought to be. They have been
pushing it toward q vote ever since the be-
ginning Of the session. and have mads very
LITTLE progress. They admitted some
time ago that it couldn't be
passed without a gag rule, and for the
greater part OF last week they were trying
to adopt rule Of that kind. They expected
TO have the gag rule adopted yesterday.
They we're greatly disappointed, however.
The democrats. aided by five republicans,
succeeded in getting the apportionment bill
b, fore the Senate. The bill will occupy
considerable time-so much time, perhaps,
that the force bill senator's will hardly care
to waste any more time in trying to get a
vote on the force bill.
And it is extremely doubtful If a vote
upon it were reached it would be passed.
Quite number of the republican senator's
are opposed to it, and with their help the
democrats could defeat it. The truth is
there is no sentiment anywhere in the
country which demands the passage Of the
bill. There are few republican politicians
who are clamoring for it, but the masses OF
the Pc pie see only harm In it. The force
bill senators and the President dislike to
acknowledge themselves defeated, and
that is one of the reasons why they have
urged 1t so persistently. They thought that
they would be able, by means Of the party
whip, to force all the republican senator's to
vote for it. Having found out that they
cannot do that they ought to, and doubtless
will, abandon it.
But it must make them shed bitter tears
to think to what extent they have lowered
their dignity aud standard of political NOR
ality in its behalf, and, that too, without
accomplishing tnelr object. They began
this congress with settled purpose to pass
it, and they stopped at nothing TO
increase tleir majority, with that object
in view. In seating the Montana senator's
they committed political crime, because
those senators are the product of violence.
They admitted new states which had not
the requisite population with the view of in
creasing their senatorial majority. Their
unlawful work has profited them nothing.
There are still a few repu lican senators
who are mindful of the voice of the people
they heard it in November-and these few
have united with the democrats to save the
country from that unhappy condition into
which the madness of the force bill senators
would bring it.
Now that the force bill has been side
tracked it is to be hoped that the regular
work of congress will be permitted TO go on.
There is a great deal to be done and only a
few weeks in which TO do it. March 4 is
close at hand and the Senate has not yet
considered any of the appropriation bills.

In the Hands of his Friends.

Senator Ingalls, says that he is in the
hands of his friends, and his friends say
that "he is all right" Strange as it may
seem, ingalls, appears to be more hopeful of
reelection than he has been at any pre-
vious time since the meeting of the legisla-
ture of his state. Has he succeeded in max
ing a combination that will give him the
necessary majority?
There is a story afoat that Senator Cor
man arranged with him to give him the
democratic votes in the Kansas legislature
pro- ided be would vote against the cloture
rule and the force bill Is there any founda-
ton for this storyi 1t is certain that Ingalls,
vote was counted with the democrats yester-
day on the motion DO take up the apportion-
ment bill. Now il the democratic memb ers
OF the Kansas legislature should vote for
Ingalls, there would be very few who would
not believe that there was an arrangement
by which Ingalls, vote was obtained against
the oloture rule and force bill
But IL the democratic leader of the
Senate did make such an arrangement he
win not be criticised harshly for doing SO.
Ingalls, is much to be preferred to the force
BILL He can do neither the south nor the
Democratic party any harm, and the force
bill would have a most disastrous effect in
| the south.
Therefore If Senator German secured
| Ingalls, assistance he did a very shrewd
piece Of political work. But then he is
always making shrewd moves on the polit-
ical chess board. As political manager it
is doubtful if he has his equal in the coun-
| try,

just Indignation.

Every right-minded woman resents any rsHec-
tions on her bonnet. Here Is an illustration.
says tue Boston Transcript, In a story from
open-car time:
director OF a horse railroad line was riding
on the car when q woman near him was robbed
of her bonnet by gust of wind OF jumped
the woman after her bonnet without waiting for
the car to stop, while the director sat heIpiess
and angry with visions OF suit for injuries from
the relatives of the bareheaded woman dancing
through his own head.
But back she came unhurt with the rescued
bonnet on her head and got upon the car, which
had now stopped for her.
That's right" said the director. That's
right; risk your life for two-dollar bonuetw
The woman's eyes flashed fire, and she re-
torted, sharply:
''Tain't q two-dollar bonnet: it's a seyer-dollsr
bonnet"

Speaking Of purportsd newspaper inter
view with Gen. Lausdorf, the czar's conf :
dental court chamberlain, the Philadelphia
Ledger ingenuously says that he either had
permission from his master to submit to an
interview for purpose, or else he is most
indiscreet confidential servant. He says
that every year OF armed peace sees the
succe of Russia and France assured, and
this statement is coupled with the remark
that Russians have profound antipathy
for the people Of England and Germany.
Altogether the effect of the article Is to
represent Russia aud France as prepa ring
for war with Germany with an assurance
of success arising from the fact
that they can maintain their great military
establishments without feeling the burden,
while their enemies are distressed by the
cost OF heavy armaments That may be
true, the Ledger thinks, but 10 IS extraor-
binary talk from the confidential servant
of the car at time OF profound peace,
unless there Is purpose back OF it to pro-
woke discussion ending in war. such q
possibility as that the French interview
might have been an outright "fake" does
not once occur to the honest soul of the
Ledger. Yet such thing has been known
to happen in a similar way.

Quick wit wins in nine instances out Of ten.
This was exemplified in Pennsylvania
criminal court the other day. When a
prisoner held for indictment on charge Of
larceny was ordered to lie released he was
astonished. But he was not half SO much
astonished then as he was two seconds later
when another man promptly answered to
his name and was released before he could
recover his breath. When the amazed
culprit finally recovered his wits sufficiently
to state his case to the she if that Official
and his deputies bulged out and ransacked
Lancaster for the sharper. They caught
him and recognized him as an old crook.
Then the slow prisoner was released. Only
for the enterprising rascal's vanity over his
own cuteness, and his disposition to treat
himself on the faith of his sudden streak Of
luck he might have escaped altogether.

Congressman Allen of Mississippi, says the
Chicago Necs, RECALLED the Glover club last week
with some amusing Illustrations OF the qualities
manifested by Maj Moses A. Handy when he
was in the confederate service He said that
Handy was remarS ably valorous of speech. but
equa ~ inconstant in action; brave enough
before battle, he would not stand fre-he fed
incontinenty at sight of the yankees. Finally
the captain Of the company took Handy aside
one day and said to him very sternly: Handy,
you come of good family and like you for
many admirable qualities; you are undoubtedly
loyal to our cause, but you have not yet been
known TO stand IN time of action. Now, have
made uD my nina to put a stop to your absurd
folly Tomorrow we shall engage the enemy
across the creek. and 1 propose to stand right
beside you. pistol in hand, and see that you do
your duty. If you attempt to run away l snan
shoot your
Captain" reioued Handy, with flashing
eyes and burning checks, that would be an
honor should be proud OF. You may shoot me,
but I'm blowed il I'm going to let any Internal
yaakee do i'll"
AS for Maj Handy himself, he says that the
most embarrassing moment he ever ex experienced
was when he issued from the white house last
winter after one of the presidential receptions.
1t was late at night. the portico was ablaze with
electric lights, and long line of carriages was
in waiting. congressman Allen was with him,
and the first thing Alien did, as they stepped out
upon the front portico, was TO call out in COM
manding tones: THE Irish Minister'S car
riage"
This command was taken up in good faith by
the divers lackeys and passed along the line.
THE irish minister's carrage!' went thunder
ing d own the imposing array. The crowd of
curious spectators gazed in wonder at the per-
sonage whom they honestly believed to be the
envoy from Erin. Nobody tumbled to tb" joke,
and re.umably nobody noticed Handys con
fusion or heard the invte5ives which ne S. at at
his co,e friend Allen as the twain meandered
down the gravel walk.

Elbow forward, push and squeeze:
You will get there if you try;
Swing your shoulders, brace your knees
Don't live in q little den;
Don't go half-sterved, hungry, cold;
Pigs were made for such pen;
Wiggle, WORK and push out bold.
Don't jump II your shadow moves;
If the world won't go with you,

Strike out bold; try something new.

Get hustle in your talk: ys
Get rustic on; get mad;
Get a hustle in your walk.

Then he held forth at some length upon the
