In the Missouri campaign of 1850
two of the most fascinating men in
the state were pitted against each
other, T. r Crittenden and D. P.
Dyer Mr.. Crittenden started the
campaign aggressively by kissing the
ladies' 6lially, fraternally or pater-
nally, as the case might be. Mr.
Dyer followed suit, and the contest
of grace and abandon was clearly a
tie. Then Mr.. Crittenden stole a
march on his unsuspecting opponent;
he began on the babies No baby of
any qualified voter of the state es
capped the pressure of Mr.. Critten-
den's lips, or a delicate tribute to its
fine features and symmetrical body.
The effect Of this movement was
tremendous. Mr.. Dyer was cam
paigning in the back districts, and
did not hear of his adversary's bril-
liant stratagem for nearly two weeks.
He hastily adopted the same line of
attack, but it was too late, for the
idea was as good as patented. Mr..
Crittenden went right along kissing
babies up to within an hour of the
closing of the polls, and when he de-
sisted he was elected to the govern
orship by the largest majority ever
cast in the state-54, 034 votes. kan

A Thoughtless Woman.

Mont Perdu, in the Pyrenees, is
difficult of ascent, and Frenchwom-
an, Nine. l., had made a VOW
that she would be the first woman to
stand upon it's summit. She engaged
four guides, and pledged them to
carry her body to the summit, alive
or dead.
No carrying was needed, however.
The party camped over night on the
way, and in the morning trium
phantly gained the top.
But now the fair climber undid all
the glory of the exploit. A bottle
had long been kept in niche of rock
at the top to be opened by each rare
newcomer for the inscription of his
name Our heroine opened this bot
tie, scattered its precious contents to
the winds. and inserted her card in
their place, declaring that there
should be but one name found on the
crest of Mont Perdu.
Great was the Indignation in the
valley when the ungenerous act was
noised abroad A young stranger,
who was staying at st, Sauveur, nc
sooner heard of the occurrence than
he started up the mountain, and q
day or two later Nine. Il, then in
Paris, received a polite note inclos
ing the card that she had left as q
boastful memento on the summit OF
Mont Perdu. Youths Companion.

Not So Poor After AL.

A Washington capitalist who has
recently returned from the interior
of Florida tells this story of his trip:
Having obtained the title to tract
of land by what Colonel Carter of
Cartersville" calls some very ungen-
tlemanly foreclosure proceedings,
he set out to view his possessions. In
the midst of swampy waste he
found very dilapidated cabin. In
the doorway hung worn gray blan-
ket and over the top of this blanket a
grizzled cracker" looked out at his
visitor. The tenant surveyed his
landlord and the landlord his tenant
for moment, until the latter broke
the embarrassing silence. Stranger,
he said II ain t so poor us you think
be. don't own this hereabouts.

The first porterhouse steak was so
named in New York city, in the
famous old tavern of Martin Nor
rison, at 327 Pearl street. This was
a favorite resort of seafaring men.
A steak being called for by an old
pilot one night, Morrison said that he
had no steaks, but would cut and
broil for him thick slice from the
sirloin which had just been prepared
for roasting the next day. Morrison's
place was known as the Porter House
in the neighborhood, and its frequent
ers soon got to talking about the
Porter House steaks. Morrison final
ly told Gibbons, his butcher in the
Fly market, to cut up sirloins for
him thereafter. New York Sun.

The fogging in the army and navy
during the Eighteenth century in
England is appalling to think of
That carried on ashore is a subject
of some obscurity. The punishment
Of whipping has never been taken
out of the laws. GarToters and rob
bers who are violent are still aogged,
and boys are birched. | know not
when they ceased to fog men through
the streets at the cart tail. nor when
they left off flogging women. The
practice certainly continued well
into the century. In the prisons 1t
was a common thing to tlog the men.
AS for the severity of the laws pro
tecting property, one illustration
will suffice. What can be thought
of laws which allowed the hanging
of two children for stealing a purse
with two shillings and brass colln
ter in it2
Something, however, may be said
for Father Stick. He ordered every
thing, directed everything, superin'
tended everything. Without him
nothing was ever done, nothing could
be done Men were fogged into drill
and discipline, they were hogged
into courage, they were fiogged into
obedience; boys were fiogged into
learning; prentices were tiogged into
diligence; women were fogged into
virtue. Father Stick has still his
disciples, but in the last century he
was king. Walter Besant in Har

The village oornet Band.

Among the recollections of those life enchant-
ed days
When Santa Claus was real to me, and bogie
man and fays,
The thing best remember as then seeming sn
per grand
Was the music and the marching OF the village
cornet band.
As the first reverberation of the brasses' mar
tial blare,
Like an echo faint and fading, fioated TO us on
the air,
All the youngsters heller skelter rushed away
with flying feet,
For that thing of joy, the cornet band, was
coming down the street
The boys forgot their marbles, yea and even
bats and ball,
And our very little sister her decapitated doll
For what were life's bereavements, or its or
dinary joys,
When the celebrated cornet band was making
martial noiseY
The bands perambulation being viewed with
out expense,
The excitement In the village was exceedingly
ntense
All business camo to sudden stop, for who
could ooldly trade
When our beatifio cornet band was out for o
parade.
seemed TO me-
With everybody rushing for place TO hear
and see;
And even ancient citizens Of seventy or more,
AS excited as their grandsons, came a-hob-
bling TO the door.
What vision twas OF glory as the band came
sweeping past,
And what looks OF admiration were upon the
heroes cast
How magnificent their uniforms OF yellow,
green and redl
How very splendidly they played, and what a
kingly treadl
And the majorl Ahl the majorl most majes-
tically highY
And he pranced along, curveting and what

As he boldly tossed his seepter up and spun Il
around at will.

And have heard the worlds maestros In their

salaried alderman is responsible for
a single department. or. for several
closely allied parts of the public busi

aldermen. on three OF four scattered
committees schools, licenses and
sewers-abOut none of which he has
any scientific knowledge. He IL
elected to his Office because of his
knowledge and skill in special field
of municipal work. and takes charge
of that department. Thus, city work
offers to a young German a life
career, just as railroading or manu-
featuring does in America.
An educated man makes special
study of water works or building laws
or poor relief. He learns the meth
ods of the best European cities. He
serves his time in the administration
in some small town, and perhaps
gets a place at the head of his chosen
department in some small city, and
tries to make that department 9

ship of hen. The fowl was only
worth two OF three bits, but the re-
spectiye claimants were in dead ear
nest. and fought the case with as
much vigor as if several thousand
dollars were involved. Many times
the value of the hen was expended in
legal and attorneys fees. and vast
array of witnesses were called to
testify as to the proper ownership OF
poor little biddy.
The evidence was so contradictory
that the justice was unable to decide,
but suddenly bright thought struck
him. Courts adjourned. Gimme
that hen" he said, and the fowl,
which had been brought into court
as an exhibit, was turned over to
him. Followed by the wondering
plaintiff and defendant, counsel, wit
nesses and spectators, he went
straight to the locality where the
riyal claimants resided, paced off the
distance between the two houses,
halted exactly midway and then let
the chicken go. The fowl did not
hesitate for a second, but with glad
squawk half ran half few to one OF
the houses, and the judge immedi
ately pronounced the occupant there

at random about Egypt which had

AS it happened, the woman had just
prepared a paper on early Egyptian
art. For weeks she had lain down
with the Hyksos and risen up with
the Pharaohs. Now she made mis-
siles out of Herodotus and heaved

was speechless and would fain have
crawled under the table, for they
were at dinner. = New York Evening
