The Use of "WiIl' and shall" )"

There is probably no more confusing
part of the English language than that
which regulates the proper use of ''shall''
and will" The reply of James Russell
Lowell to the woman who wrote, say
ing, Il would be very much obliged for
your autograph" has been often in
print, and has undoubtedly been clipped
for scrap and pocketbook reference by
many persons. The poet essayist grant
ed her request in the following fashion:
pray, do not say hereafter, Il would be
obliged If you would be obliged, be
obliged and be done with it. Say, i
should be Obliged and oblige, yours
truly, James Russell Lowell
An additional hint to go with this
"cut me out" is that of the old verse:
In the first person simply shall foretells;
In will a threat or else a promise dwells;
Shall in the second or the third doth threat:
Will simply then foretells the future feat.
Or "shall' in the first and will" in the
second and third persons are to be re-
garded as simple declarations. and both
in all other cases convey a threat

EDWARD MURPHY, the brewer who
bas made millions selling beer to
Tammany saloons, is candidate for
Senator from New York. A day or
two ago the fat man with "a solemn re-
sponsibility'' sent for Mr.. Murphy and
told him that it was the desire of him
self, the modern "Great 1 Am" alias
Grover l, that W. c. Whitney, another
millionaire, should succeed Senator
Hiscock, and at the same time asked
Murphy to withdraw. Now Murphy
does not use the words of good man
and it is stated there was a regular
scussin" match between the two great
men. Murphy has the machine behind
him, while Grover has the conceit to
think that his will is |; W, and it will be
a pretty fight between these two great
men.

Buddha rested for seven years plunged

the peasants of Russia prostrate them
selves before the trees which they are
about to cut, and deprecate the venge-

they then proceed to destroy. Gentle
