Thackeray's Good Rumor

A lady tells in the New York Advertiser this
story of the novelist Thackeray, who once visited
at her house: After having told lot Of delight
full stories. Mr. Thackeray remarked that he
must leave, he was so terribly hungry We told
him that we could give him very good dinner.
There is nothing, my dears, you can give me, -
he answered with funny sigh, for can only
eat the chop of rhinoceros or a slice from an
elephant. "
Yes, l tam exclaimed Dot, the 3vear-old
daughter Of the house. She disappeared into a
big cupboard and soon emerged with a look of
triumph on her fat little face holding in her
hands wooden rhinoceros and an elephant
from her toy Noah'S ark
Putting the two animals on a plate she
handed them with great gravity to Mr.. Thack
cray. The great man laughed and rubbed his
hands with glee and then, taking the child in his
arms kissed her, Remaining:
All, little rogue; you already know the value
Of a kiss"
Then he asked for a knife and fork snacked
his lips and pretended to devour the elephant
and rhinoceros.

The Roll Gall of States.

In the current issue of the Cosmopolitan
magazine is an article from the pen OF
Murat Halstead on national political con-
ventions. It is descriptive Of conventions
IN general, dealing with usages that have
become common to all such gatherings.
The whole story, besides being especially
interesting in these convention times,
is an excellent piece OF fine
writing" Moreover, it abounds in
passages capable Of being brought down
to date" and worked into reports of con-
temporary conventions. And some of the
| Washington and Minneapolis corre-
spondents took advantage OF that fact and
faxed" some Of their best stories Of the
| recent republican convention from it. In
one Georgia paper, at least, appeared
description Of a ballot in the Minneapolis
convention that was 'cribbed" almost bodily
from the Cosmopolitan article. However,
the readers Of the paper benefited by it.
The correspondent from his own inner con-
seriousness, could hardly have evolved such
word picture of an exciting moment in
the great gathering, and readers Of it will
the better understand what the supreme
moment in a national convention" means.
But the correspondent omitted one of the
finest passages in Mr.. Halstead's article.
1t is that in which is described
1.-THE roll call Of states" Thousands
of pencils. all over the United States, will
fly over columns Of figures as the secretary
OF the Chicago convention calls the roll Of
states and as bulletins of each states vote

Mr.. Halstead says: There is something
impressive in the sound; aud the simple
words. call the roll of states, though often
repeated, do not lose their grandeur. Then
the secretary always calls first the beau; iful
reSounding name Alabama and If he does
1t well, as he generally does, there is in it
surprising music. There is offered a
creator chance for elooution in the delivery
OF the name 'Pennsylvenia' than any other.
There is a rare resonance In it. New York
means 30 much that the sharp syllables
have significance. There seems to
be something more in South Caro-
lima by the sound than in any
other southern state, Notwithstanding the |
crowd of memories that arise with Vir- |

and Kentucky and Louisiana. Ohio affords |
the secretary a rolling opportunity that he |
does not fail to improve giving his strength |
freely to both o's. The northwestern states |

to glorious echoes; Colorado has the |
music and color of sonorous old Spain; but |
there is special splendor IN California ard |

a Plunner In snunah Pie.

The story of the man who bought a hotel
in order TO have his breakfast eggs served
just as he pleased has almost its counterpart
in story that is being told about "Old
Hutch the famous grain speculator, for
merly Of Chicago. sold Hutch" is now a
New Yorker, and is not so rich as he once
was. He does a little business on "the
street." but nothing to compare with his
former plunges. In fact, he has become a
rather Insignificant parsonage. The
story Is that his love Of squash
pie has led to his becoming
caterer. 1t is said that not long ago be
rushed into restaurant on Beaver street to
get piece Of squash pie. and found that
the supply had run out. This 80 exasper-
ated him that he vowed he would Ak things
80 that squash pie would be forever on tap,
80 to speak, in that neighborhood, and at
once he gave up specializing and went to
work to erect squash pie factory and res
taurant in a place convenient for other
brokers and spectators, whose tastes might
run to pie.
That is the story as 1t is being printed.
1t may be the true story of why "Old
Hutch" is now pieman, but the chances
are against it. He is queer old fellow,
but nobody has ever accused him Of lack
of hard, common sense, and man of
common sense would not grapple SO pro-
found a problem as providing squash pie for
the million upon 80 slight provocation. 1t
would probably be nearer the truth to say
that the daring adventurer saw the chance
of a big deal of some kind in squash pie
and went into it to win-took plunge into
it as it were, for the purpose of retrieving
his lost fortunes, or, in case of failure. bury
ing his sorrow in the quivering bosom Of
the squashed squash.

The Wine ofLife.

Friendship is the wine of life. DIR. YOUNG
Yesl Friendship is the wine of life
That from the heart is pressed,
And those for whom it freely flows,
And only those, are blessed.
Iwould not give the cheering draughts
From many hearts I've won,
For all the riches of the earth,
Or jewels meath the sun
AS different grapes yield different wines.
So does my heart dstill
different love from every friend,
Its many wants to fil
When DER my soul no shallow hangs,
When all within is WE'LL
long for sparkling. bright Champagne,
Or pure, but calm, Mosele.
When doubts like thorns beset my path.
When trials press me near,
need the strength Madeira gives.
My troubled soul to clear.
And when droop meath sickness wing.
When mind and body sink,
When sorrows curtains round me fall
OF generous Port I'd drink
Some hearts there are who yield me all,
In whom may conhde,
For every wine that friendship hath
Whatever fate betide;
Who give me strength when trials press,
And hope in hours of pain;
Or of my pleasures freely pour
Moselle and bright Champagne,
While others whom 1 truly love,
Unyielding as the rock.
VIII disappoint my thirsty soul,
Or give me only Hook.
But as I tread life's winding path,
I'll pluck from every vine
The grapes that seem most like to yield
My soul its spirit vine,
Though some may fail to quench my thirst,
In others still I'll trust
For must love, although life's wine
Is only poured on dust,
So shall my heart, untouched by age
Believe IN friendships truth,
And feel that time has not the power
To steal away its youth.

The promoters OF the freak half-dollar
idea in behalf of the worlds fair have got
along as far as the preparation of a bill
covering the plan. The bill provides for
the recoinaGe of 100000 silver souvenir
half-dollarsn from the uncurrent subsidiary
silver coins now in the treasury, to aid in
defraying the cost OF completing the work
at Chicago. The sum OF 100000 is appro-
priated to reimburse the treasury for
loss on such recoinage. Out of the net
amount received into the treasury of the
exposition, the government is to receive
thereof such proportion as this appropria-
ton bears to the whole amount expended.
So far as heard from, nobody, except
the promoters of the idea, wants these
souvenir half. dollars. Money that will 20
into circulation, and stay in ciroula-
ton, is what the people want; not
money that will be locked up as a me-
mento of the hberality OF congress to Chi
cago. Five million dollars more or less
may not change the volume of the cur
rency to any appreciable extent; but the
coinage of even one souvenir halt-dollar
should be prohibited. The government
minis are not medal factories. II congress
desires to aid the worlds fair let congress
appropriate the good, sound coin Of the
nation, and il the worlds fair managers de-
sire that visitors have the privilege Of tax
ing home with them silver souvenir OF
the great show, let them strike such medals
or other souvenirs, as they please and put
them on sale at the fair grounds.

annoying workman and says he and about
100000 more Of his fellows will
go out on strike If their wages
are reduced, as the manufacturers

men are positively unreasonable. How can
their employers contribute to the Harrison
"workingmans campaign" unless wages are
reduced9 They cannot expect the manu-
facturers 60 pay the money out of their own
pockets; the very idea is ridiculous! How
ever, it is announced that unless some
understanding on the wage scale is arrived
at very soon between the Amalgamated As
ISOLATION of Iron and Steel Workers and the
protected manufacturers of Pittsburg, a
general strike will be declared on July /.
and. that the strike will involve at least
1000 men.
