"Therc is ono thing do not care to see
imported, and tlatis British profanity"
said G. NJ. Sanborn at the Southern
"There is something particularly re-
pulsive about English profanity, and yet
it is not, according to orthodox stand
ards, as wicked as our own swear words.
Tho Englishman seldom takes the name
OF the Almighty in vain; he does not
even consign his enemy to Malebolge.
His most emphatic imprecations are
'blawsted' and bloody but he uses
them with such reckless vigor that
dammit sounds like Sunday school
phrase by comparison. An American
may use his whole vocabulary of 'cuss
words in London without attracting
much attention, but let cockney cabby
begin to 'blawst the bloody hize' of his
old crowbait and every lady in the block
puts her fingers in her ears an rolls up
her eyes in pious horror. ST. Louis

Killing coyotes is easy. The animals are
lazy by nature and tako the food that is
most easily procured The ranch ers and
others take advantage OF the fact, and
when they kill a sheep or ore dies from
natural causes, poison, usually strych-
nine, is placed in many parts of the flesh
and is left exposed in some quiet place.
II there is coyote in the neighborhood it
is sure to be attracted by the eflluvium

Chief Justice Fraler is much abused
in the matter of his whisllers. He sports
a beautiful white mustache, but here
are sundry papers protesting against his
reported sacrifice OF his 'luxuriant side

enjoyed "some distinction as the only
member of the supreme court who was
not clean shavsn," ignoring the vener-
able full beard of Justice Field, the long
mustache and chinner of Justice Lamar

Patrick Tormcy did not allow wife or daugh-

soon as he was buried they started out 20 cut

foolish as the girls, and the fonr proved a

nothing OF spending two or three thousand

result is that their bills for female iinery run
up to about $4,000 Mrs. Tormey was also

her worst ventures was with Allegretti, the

preserving fruit against decay. Allegreui

LEO As PoEr-A correspondent tel S
how, at a recent interview, the Pope showed
him copy of a volume OF his poems that had
recently been published. it was very mag
niiceutly printed and bound and ornamented
with charmingly tinted vigncttes and initials.
A preface, written by Enrico Vale, 5. j.,
says:
THE character Of the Popc's verse is Vir-
gillian, not only in the Latin tongue being
employed and in the manner in which the
phrase is managed, but in its scnsibility, the
noblcncss of the choice of subjects and the
ideas. 1t is suave, elegant and easy, and has
the Virgilian ideas. The Pope deals with
Latin and with his mother tongue. His cpl
srammatic poems are light, lively and strike
where they ought. They are well winged
but they have not poisoned barbs. The Pope
as a satirist or wit brings balm to the wound
he nnicts '-New Orleans Picdyonc.
