Commercial clerks seek the pleasures OF

Among the animals DIR. Alcock has spe-

basal joints of the "arm." against which
the palm can be tightly closed, there is

is so folded against the base of the arm, Z"

Chief Justice Fuller Writes Love Letter
1Washinpton Pot1


Washington Pot.l
A few days ago. having occasion to con-
suit his physician, Chief Justice Fuller
concluded, inetead of sending for him to
enjoy the short walk to his residence, and
perhaps, a social little chat as well in the
latter's library. The door was opened for
him by a new man. who. after informing
him that the doctor was out, but left word
he would shortly return, asked the chief
justice into the library to wait.
Wholly unaware of the exalted position
in legal circles he'd by the quiet gentle
man with kindly gleam in his eyes, the
man soon presented several sheets of
ruled paper. astamped envelope, pen, and
inkstand to the chief justice. The chief
justice looked up inquiringy at the man,
who, in evident embarrassment, stood
before him holding the literary tools.
Bashfully tripping his words over
each other as he stated the case, the
man profiered the REQUEST that the
visitor, while waiting for the doctors re-
turn, employ himself in writing love
letter, as though ardently desiring to
communicate with his sweetheart. the
poor fellow being deferred from doing so
by his lack OF knowledge in the art of
penmanshiD.
Without hesitation, as though that was
the one business of his life, the chief
justice at once acquiesced kand settled
down to the composition of what was I'M
doubtedlv the most unique love letter ever
penned by his hand.

ong that some of the strands had cut
their way into the flesh. The camel was
all SCARED up and had evidently had
very hard time. Now everybody down in
that country is wondering whether the
man was tied on there Mazeppa fashion
for deviltry or revenge. whether it was
some lunatic's hideous scheme OF suicide,
or merely an ugly piece of humor of some
body who had a camel and a corpse for
which he had no use.

It will be remembered that when Frank
Jones was here at the meeting to ratiiy
the lease of the Connecticut river railroad
TO the Boston and Name combination, on
the 18th, ne remarked to the reporter o.
the Republican, who interviewed him
"Y Dung man, you should have been a
minister; if you searched the scriptures

attract large congregation"
THIS striking tribute TO thorough work
has attracted the attention of a CORE
spOndent, "Brer Rabbit" who has been
making research along the line suggested
by Dir. Jones, and now writes: eff your
reporter should follow the advice of Frank
Jones, become preacher and search the
