Low Statured Westerners.

81 must acknowledge that l am great
ly disappointed in the size of western
men," remarked Arthur De Witt, OF
Philadelphia. Il was never west of the
Alleghanies before, but l have always
been under the impression that western
men were larger in stature and more ro-
bust and vigorous in general appearance
than we of the effete east, as you people
out this way call our section of the
country. l am therefore surprised to
find that my impression is an erroneous
one, or else your big men are not seen
in hotels and on the streets.
81 should judge that the average
height of the men | have seen in St.
Louis does not exceed feet inches
Their abdominal development is ample,
and maybe this accounts for the sawed
off appearance of so many of your men.
l don't know how to account for the lit
tie squatty men of the west. Maybe it
has been my misfortune to see only the
pygmies of your giant race have heard
and read so much about. st. Louis

Among many foreigners, especially
those of the Latin races, the English
language, because of its ''harshness and
| roughness," is regarded as i'll adapted
for the soft and delicate shades of polite
intercourse. A striking illustration of
this theory was observed lately by a
passenger on a steamer loading at New
Orleans for Mexico.
Several Spaniards and few Ameri-
cans were among the bystanders watch
ing the process of loading. As the por-
tiers crowded through the narrow gang
way, laden with large bales of goods,
their passage was occasionally obstruct-
ed by these lockers on.
AS often as this happened the porter
would give a swift glance at the face of
the man against whom he jostled, and
if it was one whose swarthy complexion
indicated a Spanish origin, he would
murmer softly and deferentially, "Con
permisso, senor,"-By your leave, sir.
If, however, the "obstructionist' bore
the unmistakable features of an Anglo
Saxon the porter merely growled in
cultural voice, "Out the way thar, boss"
He gained his object in either case,
but the observant traveller was COM
PEELED to admit that the mellow, sibilant
tones of the Spanish phrase Jared less
unpleasantly upon his feelings, as well
as upon his auditory nerves, than the
harsher accent of his mother tongue.
1t would be impossible, however, to
frame even the ''11ncOuth" English into
a similar phrase, which would be at
once polished and forcible.-Youth's

When Holborn Hill disappeared and

number of chains with human limbs
came to light as well as some bottles
containing a pale, yellow fluid, very

who were asked to report on it, but by
general consent it was agreed to be
merely a hair dye. Scientists always

the Police.
In the Police Court All Ii, a Chi
naman, was arraigned on charge of
having opium in possession. All III
entered a plea of not guilty, and Of
icer Spencer, who made the arrest,
was placed on the stand. He testi.
fed that he found the defendant in a
very suspicious position with can
of Insee opium, a pipe and needle in
his possession. Another Chinamah
was called who stated that he had
never known All III to smoke or have
opium in his possession and that he
was not present at the time of the
arrest. The prosecution having de-
pended on this mans evidence to cor
roborate the officers testimony and
convict All III, was nonplussed at this
denial. The case was accordingly
mol pros'd. The Crown prosecutor
has often had similar cases in which
the informer has testified before the
Court directly contrary to private
statements made to officials. The
presumption is that when prisoner
learns who the informer is he buys
him off, and the informer, If Celes-
tial, almost invariably accepts the
bride.
