HOW TO COLLECT BAD BILLS.
A Chicago Tailor Who Was Hound No
TO BE shook on.

A Chicago Tailor Who Was bound Not
to Be shook On.
A Chicago tailor has devised a new
way to collect old debts. A customer,
who is employed in his fathers office at
the Board of Trade, has owed bill of
$40 for several months. Statements of
the Indebtedness and demands for pay
ments have been made once or twice a
week for some time with no effect,
and the young mans father and mother
have been appealed to in vain. 1t was
useless to sue, for the debtor isn't worth
a dollar. The case looked hopeless.
But the tailor is very foxy individual
He happened to learn that the young man
was desperately in love with pretty girl
and that he spent certain evenings in
every week at her house. On one of
these evenings the tailor appeared at the
young lady's residence and inquired for
his debtor. The youth came into the
hall to meet him, and when he saw the
tailor he almost tainted away. The
tailor came out fat footed and swore that
the bill must be paid then and there OF
he would raise row, SO that the young
lady would be informed how matters
stood. The young man, however, proved
conclusively that he had only $1.45 on
his person, and the tailor finally relented
and left Another month passed and
still the bill remained unpaid. Thereupon
the tailor sent hestatement to the young
lady, and by the same mail he notified
his debtor of his proceeding. The young
Lady informed her admirer that she could
not love man who didn't pay his debts
and further, that if he could not show
her receipt for the bill within six days
he needn't come to see her any more.
There was terrific storm at the tailor's
shop, but the bill was paid. The young
lady has the receipt Chicago Post.

Professor Peabody inferentially denies
good literary style as the habit of COM

and an easy flow Of the pen, without
wasteful overflow. He, moreover, be-
lieves that this style may be more surely
acquired by familiarity with Cicero than
with any other author, ancient or modern

THE MAIL BILL PASSED.

The Mail Contract bill has passed
at last, in Just the shape in which it
has been favored by the Examiner.
As it stands now, it is not subsidy
grab, but clean provision for hon
est compensation for service rendered
the public.
The bill provides for contracts for
carrying the mails on steamers of
American build. Ships of the first
class are to be of not less than 5000
tons burden and 20 knots speed.
Those of the second class are to be
of at least 5000 tons and Is knots.
Those of the third class are to reach
$500 tons and IA knots. Those of
the fourth class are to be of not less
than ], 800 tons and II knots. The
vessels of the first three classes are
to be built in accordance with the
the plans of the Navy Department
and are to be suitable for use as
cruisers in time OF war. The pay is
to be 81 per mile for each outward
voyage to steamers of the first class,
g per mile for steamers of the sec
ond class, 81 per mile for those of
the third and 662 cents for those of
the fourth class.
If the Alameda and Mariposa
should meet the requirements of the
Navy Department they would fall in
the third class. and would draw
81 per mile, or $500 per voyage.
At the rate of a voyage per month
this would give the Oceanic Com
pany $50, 400 year. But it is prob
able that the company will imme-
diately try to gain the benefit of
higher rates by building larger ships
and running them oftener. A fort
nightly service with vessels of 5000
tons would pay S14,400 every two
weeks, or 1914, 400 a year The diff
ference would be worth having.
The passage of this bill means the
salvation of our Australian and
Asiatic lines from Canadian compe-
tition. 1t also means, in ell proba
bility, the improvement of the
Panama service, the extension of the
Pacific Mails lines down the west
coast of South America, aud the es-
tablishment of steam communication
with Tahiti and other ports of the
Pacific. 1t will be great thing for
San Francisco.
And now that we are to have the
ships, when are we to be allowed to
have something to carry in them =

Saturdays Matinee.

Under the circumstances Of having
such short public notice the Opera
House was very well filed to hear
Rice's Evangeline Company. The
entertainment consisted Of variety
of songs, dances, representations and
an exhibition of the phonograph.
Mr.. E. E. Rice presided at the piano,
giving some splendid selections
The songs of Misses Karl, Earl,
Paul, and Cole were not ap to the
expectation of those gathered to
hear them, but their kicking, judg-
ing from the look of many surprised
faces, certainly reached the highest
point.
Mr.. Geo. X. Fortescue, in his
burlesque impsrsonations of Little
Lord Fauntleroy and the bashful
little girl in love with the man in
the moon," was simply immense all
around. There is enough both OF
MIR. Fortescue and his acting TO
keep an audience in an uprosr for
an entire evening.
But the best of all, perhaps, was
the photograph exhibition. Under
charge of Mr.. McMahon quite q
number of songs, speeches, etc, were
produced, to the delight of the audi
ence. The climax was reached when
one OF Prof. Berger's new marches,
Liliuokalani," was given. The
Hawaiian Band having played the
march into the photograph, it was
Immediately reproduced, and so well
and clearly was it reproduced that
the pleased audience could hardly
refrain from applause till the end.
If that cylinder is kept intact and
the photograph plays it elsewhere
as well as it did Saturday afternoon.
Prof. Berger may well be proud Of
Hawaii's favorite. Hawaii Ponoi
was partly played and sung into the
graph, but was not so well repro
duced as the march.

THE AVERAGE BABK.

One little head OF golden hair,
Two little cheeks so round and fair,
Two little lips with fragrant signs,
One little nose and two blue eyes.
Two little hands as soft as peach,
Two little feet with five toes each,
Two little smiles and two little tears,
Two little legs and two little ears,
Two little elbows and two little knees,
One little grunt and one little sneeze,
One little heart but no little sins,
Plenty OF skirts and lots OF pins,
One little cloak and plenty OF frocks,
One little hood and two little socks,
A big disposition TO haul and to pull,
One little stomach that's never full,
One little mouth OF the roses tint,
One little bottle OF peppermint.
Plenty to eat and lots to wear
And vet this baby's cross as bear.
