WHY the Ink.tand Wen. A.trav.

A very popular young preacher WAS the
recipient of much attention on the part Of
the ladies of his congregation, and one
shy and blushing spinster on the occasion
of his birthday chose for him a pretty
silver inkstand at IS. She gave TO the
clerk the following penciled inscription to
be engraved upon its base: "To my pastor,
from his grateful Malvina s." The chang.
ing of an I'm" into an en-" however,
made all the difference in the world; for
the astonished young clergyman read:
"Tony Pastor, from his grateful, etc."
and naturally wondering what could be
the connection between the theatrical
manager and Miss S., whom he looked
upon as one of the pillars of his church,
he sent the package back TO the jewelers.
to be forwarded, as he supposed TO the
rightful owner. 1t was not until the Young
lady herself wondering why her - was
not acknowledged, made inquiries at the
shop that the egregious blunder was dis
covered.-New York Tribune.

How He Got tho Money.

William S. Walsh says this story was
told him by travelling friend. The friend
was in Paris. Presenting check at a
bank, he was met with the customary
formula, "You must be identified"
Whom shall / get-the American con-
suli" with shade of sarcasm in his tone.
"No; don't know the American consul"
The traveller objected that it was rather
hard TO expect of total stranger that he
should have already effected an entree into
the society graced by the teller. But the
latter was obdurate. Then tie traveller
had a brilliant idea.
He went into neighboring cafe and
called the waiter to him. "Do you know
the teller of that banki" he asked, point
ing TO the building. ooh, yes; he stops in
here every day for his lunch" "Well,"
said the traveller, II want you to step into
the bank with me and tell him that am
NJ. -, of New York" The waiter
shrugged his shoulders. "Oh, monsieur,
but don't know you" "That makes no
difference; here's half franc" The argu-
ment was conclusive. The waiter took the
tip. accompanied the traveller to the bank
and the teller accepted the identification
without q murmur.-Once a Week.

The Conditions.

The NEWS has no wish to load its offer
with useless conditions. 1t only asks that
its readers select a man who is n citizen
of the United States, who earns his living
by daily labor and who is able and willing
to send an occasional letter giving the re-
suits of his observations. Employees of

The Trip.
The details of the trip cannot be given
yet, but il could easily include, besides the
industrial centres. such points OF interest
as Glasgow, the Clyde shipbuilding, the
Scotch Highlands, Edinburg and its
castle, Abbottsford and Melrose Abbey
the Eastern Cathedral towns, London
with it's manifold attractions, Oxford,
Stratford on Avon, the Welsh mines and
mountains, the Z" black country" Birm-
ingham. Manchester and Leeds, Liverpool
and the shipping interest, the Lake dis
trict and countless others in which Eng
land is so rich. 1t is a trip well worth
taking.

Freaks of a Young Man.

About year ago young man jumped
from Lake Ontario steamboat in midlake
and gave the officers and passengers q
fright from which they have hardly recov-
cred yet. After padding about and scream
ing for help he struck out for the steamer
only after lifeboat had been manned and
launched. Recently this athletic genius
overturned Broadway cab when a COM
panion "dared" him to. He placed his
shoulder to the wheel and cab and horse
lay in the gutter, one common ruin. a
prompt and liberal alapplcationo of American
greenbacks allayed the ire of the cabman.

Where peopIe Drink Blood.

The old legends of how the giants OF
Cornwall slew great fat oxen by the score
and used their warm blood for drink while
they champed the rare flesh between their
great teeth have for centuries afforded ma
terial for many n nursery tale To the hor
ror of the youthful listeners. If the drink
ing of the blood and the eating OF raw beef
were the only requisite to be a giant, then
Louisville could form an army Of giants.
The very thought of such thing is enough
to sicken most people. but IL is a fact that
there are scores and scores of persons in
this city who satiate their thirst by drink
ing blood, and who appease their hunger
with raw, bloody beef. OF course they do
not do this all the time, but they probably
would If the opportunity were presented.
Such persons are very reticent on the sub
ject, not because they are ashamed OF it,
but for the reason that it might disgust
their acquaintances.-l Cou r.

THAT TRIP TO EUROPE
Everybody Is Interested in It, 1t
Would Appear.
HERE'S A PATRIOTIC SCOT
lie Wants to Know If He Can Go and of
Course He Can-Farm Laborers Are
Eligible-The Offer and Conditions Re
peated.

The NEWS offer of a free trip to Europe
for representative workingman is an
engrossing topic of conversation with n
good many men in this State. There is
something about the thing that takes. A
good many newspapers have tried to ad-
yertise themselves by getting up silly
schemes, such as balloting TO decide who
the most popular. handsome or witty man
in community may be.
This is a very different matter. The
NEWS offers an inducement of solid value
TO some one of its readers, because il
wants plain workingman's unprejudiced
report of the condition of industrial Eng
land.
All sorts of people have reported on this
subject-free trade theorists, protectionist
write up one side or the other, consuls
who report according to the political views
of the party in power, and, most numer-
Gus of all, fellows who "know Ii all but
have never set foot in England and know
nothing about what they describe. The
NEWS wants the truth and nothing but
the truth. 1t wants n plain statement to
publish as widely as possible.
Questions about the trip continue TO
come in. A man who has a farm some
where in Cranston asks il a farmer is
eligible The News must hold that he is
not, although farm laborer working for
hire would be. IL is the wish of the NEWS
that its representative shall be a genuine
laboring man working for hire, and
familiar with the conditions under which
Rhode Island workingmen live.
A questioner asks: do you limit your
offer To native Americans ? am Scot
and would dearly like to- see -auld Reekie
and the Caledonian hills again, il it is
allowed by your rules and / can get the
votes" OF course this patriotic Scot is
eligible, and what fine chance this
respects native OF the old country would
enjoy the trip more than any other.
