MAKING IT RATnEn personal

This is credited rs one of Gen. Lew
Wallace's Turkish jokes: There lived il
Stambevl, Turkey, a well-tO-do Turk
named Ismail Hassam. He did moi

ton of Rider Haggard, but he was en-
with ready original wit that stood him
well in hand when he was in tight
place. A neighbor called on Ismail one
day and wanted his borrow his donkey
to use an hour. Ismail made a low
salaam and said:
'NeighbOr | am sorry. but my boy
started on the donkey an hour ago t.
Scutari. by now he is yayly trOttinp
over the hills far from the sacred pre-
cincts of Stamboul."
Just as Ismail finished his speech, a
donkey's loud bray was heard in the
stable, which was under the same ROOT
as Ismails house, but in the rear. The
neighbor said:
''Ah. hear your donkey bray"
Ismail protested that his neighbors
ears were deceived, and that the noise
was not dOnkey's bray. Then the
donkey, which was supposed to be jug
ging along toward Scutari, brayed twice
loudly. 1t was too much and the
neighbOr cried:
"Oh, that is yonr donkey, Ismail;
Allah help me, can now borrow him. y
Then Ismail said: (which do you be
lieve is lying. the donkep or me?''
The neighbor had to give Ismail the
doubt, and went away.-ITdShingtor

who first discerned his presence, CAV,
the bore the wink, and followed it up by
saying:
''lf we work it right we can get sOmC
awful lies out of him. Let some one ask
him about sharks and sea scrpents."
Four of us crowded him into a smoking
compartment, and when we had become
slightly acquainted the inquiry was
made:
Captain, you have doubtless seen
some very large whales? How long
would you say the largest VASE"
"Gentlemcp, never saw n whale in
sea for 20 years, but never happened to
see a whale"
"Well, you have seen serpents in the
warm seas?'
''Never saw one there"
''But you must have seen. some extra
large sharks?'
'Geutlemen, hope you will believe

THE NEW IMMIGRATION LAW.

The immigration bill which was en-
acted by Congress in the closing days of
the session matelillly strengthens the
provisions of existing law for the eXclu-
sion of undesirable immigrants, ut the
same time that it does away with the
absmdity under which college profess
OTs and clergymen have been treated as
lntrlct laborerr. The new law excludes
from admission into this country all
idiots insane persons, persons likely to
become public charge, persons suffer-
ing from lOathsome or dangerous con-
tIgiOus diseases, persons convicted of
felony or other infamous crime involving
moral turpitude, polygamists. and any
person whose passage is paid for by the
money of another, or who is assisted by
others to come, un!es it is aifirmatively
shown that such person does not belong
to one of the just enumerated classes or
10 the class of contract lahOTers. 1t is,
however, specially provided that persons
in the United States may assist friends
or relatives who are not of any of the
excluded classes. Persons who are con
victed of political offences, whether such
offences are or are not fclonies under the
laws of their country, are not to be ex-
cluded. 1t is forbidden to induce i'm
migration by advertisement of any kind
in foreign countries except when dom
by States or State immigration Bureaus,
and any alien coming into this country
in consequence of such an advertisement
is to boRegarded as II contract laborer

the terms and facilities of transporta-
ton. A fine of $1,000 or imprisonment
| for a term not exceeding one year is the
penalty for bringing or aiding to bring
any alien to this country in violation of
| law.
The bill creates the office of Superin-
tendent Of immigration, and gives to
that officer chief clerk and two assist
ants. 1t makes provision for inspection
and medical examination of immigrants.
1t requires the clptains and agents of
vessels arriving with immigrants to re-
port the name, nationality, lastresidence
and destination of every immigrant to
the proper inspection officer. The Sec
rotary of the Treasury is authorized to
prescribe rules for inspection along the
borders of Mexico, Canada and British
Columbia, so as not to unnecessarily de-
lay passengers in ordinary travel 1t is
provided that aliens who come into this
country in violation of law are to be sent
back ut once, at the expense of the own

The very worst method of attempt

ing the head OF the animal by the bit,
and it is a method almost universally
adopted by inexperienced users of the
horse. The stubbornness of the horse
is ONLY increased by that method.
