HIS WIFE SHAVED him.
She Wasn't Going to he Late - Church,
Sha KnA~ II

She Wasn't Going to he Late - Church If
She Knew It.
The story was told by q tslkstive man
who was evidently from the country.
The barber drew it out by tho usual ques-
ton asked of new patrons, do you shave
yourself?'
"Nof- much" was the reply. "Does
my face look asif did?''
The barber confessed that his face was
in good condition, whereupon the talka-
tive man added, with q ohuckle:
Sand I don't usually get shaved by
any barber, either"
elbows that" asked the barber.
"My wife shaves me-" answered the
talkative man, with another chuckle.
"She's done it every day for five years."
he added, land amt never had any rea-
son to complain of her work."
"Who taught her the trader asked the
barber, becoming interested.
Learned it herself. Il came about
this way: One Sunday morning soon aft
er wewere married I started of to bar
Der shop to get shaved before going to
church. The shop was crowded, as 7
knew it would be. But As Tdnever been
any great churchgoer didn't hurry. I
waited for my favorite barber, who Of
course was everybody's. fsvorite too.
And when finally got homo itwaspret-
ty late. I thought my wife would gve
tired of waiting, you sees md 70 On -
church alone, expecting me % foilew.
But she hadn't. She sat with her things
on, and when I saw her I was pespare&
to catch It," and the tslkattve man giS-
gled refectively.
"And did you catch it," prompted the
barber.
"Well, she wanted an explanation, and
of course told her the usual story about
having to wait.
"'Well,' says she, you won't do no
more waiting around barber shops while
you and live together. You can shave
yourself in future
No, can't, says I. I cut my face
Then I'll shave you,' says she.
You can't says I.
yes, l can,' says she, and will
81 thought the best way to convince
her and keep peace in the family was to
let her try it once, so the next Sunday
submitted, telling her beforehand that
if she didn't give me clean shave and
no cuts, I wouldn't go to church. Well,
sir, she gave me as good a shave as ever
got from barber, and after that I let
her keep it up, and I've never been sorry
for it. I tell you, it's luxury there
can't many poor men afford"

CONFIRMED BY BAKER.
Report of the Firing on an Americs
Ship at Honduras Was Correct.

Report of the Firing on an American
Ship at Honduras Was Correct.
WASHINGTON Nov. s.-Secretary Ores
ham received a dispatch from United
States Minister Baker, who was on
board the steamer Costa RIGA at Am
apala, Honduras, when it was fired upon
by the authorities of the place because
she refused to surrender one of the pas
sengers to the Honduras government.
The Costa RIGA was flying the American
flag at the time, and Minister Bakers
dispatch fully confirms the press report
of the affair.
The passenger about whom the trouble
arose is P. Bonilla, who recently led the
revolution in Honduras, but was defeat
ed by General Vasquez.
He Fled to Nicaragua
and with 800 of his adherents Joined the
army of President Sarcassa, who was en-
gagged in an attempt to quell revolu-
ton. Bonilla had decided to leave Mica
ragua in order to relieve the government
from all responsibility of harboring them.
He therefore sailed from Nicaragua for
Guatemala. Minister Baker and 100
other people were his fellow passengers.
They arrived Sunday at Amapala, port
of entry of Honduras on the Pacific
coast. In the afternoon the commander
of the port, Villa, demanded that Cap
tain Dow should surrender Bonilla.
When the request was refused threat
was made to sink the ship, and it was
asserted that President Vazquez had
given orders to that effect. Villa, in
censed at the refusal to surrender 30.
nilla, gave the order to fire on the ship
after nightfan when it was ...
To Dark to Leave With Safety.
A government officer came ON board at
$3.50 a. M, saying that new orders had
been received from the president insist
ing on the delivery of Bonilla or the
bombardment of the ship. Captain Dow
replied that the commander Of the port
would receive his answer in half an
hour, but before that time expired he
sailed away. Several shots were fired
after the Costa RIGA, although carrying
the American flag. One of the shots
struck her, doing no damage, but it is
feared that the steamship Gala of the
same line, which was lying in port, may
have been injured, for the firing contin.
ued for some time after the vessel was
out of range. ...
