Polly Got Square,

Henry Stimper, a Brooklyn saloonkeeper

rays the New York World Yesterday morn
ing Mr.. Stimper would have refused 800 for the
bird. Last night he tried to wiring its neck He
would have succeeded had not the parrot
scooped an arc Of flesh out of his thumb
The bird talks, and talks iuently He can
converse in low Dutch, swear in several Ian
guages and ask for drink in pure Williams
burgese. But sometimes he strikes a spell of
reticence. and then dynamite cannot blow
words out Of his beak. He had taken such a fit
yesterday when Shippers brother George came
from New York. Stimper wanted the bird to
say uncle" to his brother, but the bird de-
cllned TO admit the relationship. He simply
cooked his bad eye at the New Yorker aud
maintained chilly silence. Finally Stimper
got mad and shouted: I'm fix you if you don't
say uncle"

response.
you will, will you," replied the now thor
oughly aroused saloonkeeper. well, wen see
about that "
Throwing a cloth over the bird that snapped
at him vlciously, Stimper took it into the back
yard The saloonkeeper is a bit of chicken
fancier, and has couple of big coops, which
contain twenty-six choice fowls. a couple of
gamey roosters being among the number
In you 60" said Stimper. as he threw the
parrot among the fowls, 'ano nope you'll get
good hiding"
I'm get square" snarled the parrot once

Stimper turned away with contemptuous
smile. He forgot all about the bird until last
evening. Then he thought he would visit the
Inundated Polly. He found sixteen of his fowls

The early adjournment Of the republican
convention yesterday fits in very nicely
with a story current In Minneapolis, that a
syndicate has bought and paid for four
days show. 1t is said that Tom Lowry, the
owner of all the street railways in Minns-
apolis and st. Paul, Charles Pillsbury, the
-four mill owner; Senator Washburn and
one or two others, formed syndicate, and
put In $40, 900 to have the convention held
at Minneapolis, with the understanding that
it was to continue in session four days.
Quay, Clarkson, and the other bosses agreed,
and promised to make it five days, If posi-
BILE. A plan of procedure was prepared
making the first days work very brief, to
consist only in arranging the committees.
On the second day permanent organization
is to be effected, with the usual oratory,
after which an adjournment until Thurs
day will be had. owing to the platform not
being in readiness. Nominating speeches
are on the programme for Thursday, to be
of such length that ballot will not be
reached until Friday. That is the alleged
900 bargain. and it looks like Quay and
Clarkson have begun to deliver the goods

A Horses Remarkable Memory.

James Parish of Winchester street sends me
the following story as told him by a London
cabman, says writer in the Toronto MaiI:
Many years ago friend of mine, driver, got
the awfulest hiding, through his horse having q
good memory. IL came about in this way:
Zone night q fare hailed him on Ficcadilly
and he drew up TO the curb, and he took him
up, but when the old gent the blessed brute
couldn't stir a peg, but stood like frozen
horse its only movement being a trembling Of
the knees. This naturally made Ive-Ive his
name was-savage, and finding the thong was
no good he lost his temper and took the butt
end of his whip to it, The gentleman he banged
out of the cab when he said: You inhuman
scoundrel, what do you mean by hogging a
poor beast that Way says he, and no sooner did
the old crock in the shafts hear him than it
turned its head and began to neigh and whinny
just like talking 1t knowed its old master
again, though it did not have any eyes to see
him, and the old major looked at the horse and
they knowed one another.
81 forget how old he was-the major | mean
but he had I've off the box and down on the
pavement before you could say knife, and
went at him with his bamboo stick till he
roared out murder and brought his crowd
around EN-. I've was going to play old Harry
with the Major, but his friends advised him
different, SO he squared the matter by getting
friend TO take three teeth what the major
knocked out to his house, saying in a polite
note that he wanted a couple of pounds apiece
for them, and that if the major would buy 'em
the old horse should be thrown into the
bargain. That's how they settled it,"

Southern Outrage Stories.


No better evidence is needed that most OF
the southern outrage stories have no foun-
dalton in fact than the answer of Attorney
General Miller contained in our Washing
ton dispatches yesterday. to the charge
made by John M. Lsugston, a black dele
gate from Virginia, In a speech delivered In
Minneapolis Monday. LanRston charged
that there had been innumerable outrages
committed on black federal officials In the
south, and that the Attorney General had
made no effort 10 have the perpetrators Of
any OF them punished. The Attorney Gem
eraI says that his attention has
ern outrage upon blacks, and that one
occurred at a point I'm Mississippi. A black
mail route agent was attacked by party of
roughs, and they were arrested, convicted
and punished No doubt the statement OF
the Attorney General Is correct. And yet
this man Langston deliberately made
statement under circumstances that insured
its being scattered broadcast over the coun-
try, that outrages were being committed
upon the blacks in the south continuously.
He did not know his statement was true,
and he didn't care, probably, whether it
was true OF not. He wanted to create the
impression that the blacks are denied their
political rights in the south. and that the
denial is enforced by barbarous attacks
upon the blacks.
There are tens of thousands OF weil-mean-
ing people in each northern state who be-
lieve such outrageous stories as these to
which Langston has given currency. What
should be thought Of man who would de-
liberately SANDER the people of great Sec
ton Of the oountryl And yet this man
Langston is in good standing in his party,
and by many Of those who know him is re-
garded as a very decent sort of a person.
There has never been an outrage in
the south of which the blacks were the
victims so great as the outrage committed
by Langston upon the good name of the
southern people.
Mr.. j. Sloat Fassett, in his speech on
assuming bis position Of temporary chair
man of the Minneapolis convention yester-
day, devoted large portion Of his remarks
to alleged southern outrages. II he should
be called upon to name some Of the outraRes
of which he spoke so glibly he would not be
able to respond, 1t is doubtful IL he could
name single outrage. Such a man has
very little respect for truth. He sought to
make point for his party by resorting to
a method that a demagogue would not
resort to without feeling of shame.

A Wise Minister.

The minister of a western church not long ago

"Will the brethren now in the house who know
how to play poker please hold up their hauds?''
He waited a minute and not hand went up

concluded the services quietly, and afterward a

spokesman, hotly. The preacher laughed sooth-

Of you, Brethren" he replied. ANY man who
knows how TO play poker isn't going to show his
hand unless he is forced to, and you know 1t as
well as l do" The committee apologized and

Preacher Posteu, of DahloneSa, and Prof.
Charles L A. Totem, U. q A., should have
conference aud settle between themselves
definitely when they will have the world
come to an end. Itwould not be giving the
people fair show to have it end twice, as 1t
must do If they are both correct 10 their
conclusions. The sooner they arrange this
little matter the better it will be, and the
suggestion is respectfully offered that If
each finds the other obstinate and unwilling
to change his date. satisfactory compro-
mise might be arranged by fixing the time
say 900, 900 years hence.
