This was the case with a young man
one day last week, anu this is how he
got there. Boarding a Broadway car at
Twenty-third street among a crowd OF
others, he walked forward and took his
stand beside the gripman. 1t was some
time before the conductor reached him,
when he fumbled for change, as though
he knew he had il i'm vest and trousers
pockets, finally remarking that since he
couldn't find it he supposed he'd 'have
to get off. ~ The conductor saw IL IN
that light, tco, and politely made way
tor the young man, who by this time
had reached Thirteenth street.
Walking down few blocks, he board
ed the third car following, and this time
the conductor called for his fare. Again
he affected the searching process, and
again the conductor waited patiently,
while the car spun along until at last
the young man anXiously declared that
he must have lost his pOcketbook. The
conductor dinged the bell, deciding that

1t Was During Hailstorm That the Fish

Col. Harry Moore. of Rocky Ridge,
tells story which would make Anan-
las blush were it not for the fact that
Mrs, Moore corroborates it. A few
Sundays ago" Harry says, 1--WE had a
very heavy hail storm. How it did
hail, though! The hailstones were
larger than peas, and they came down
with CHATTER that was almost deafen-
ing. Well, it was soon over, like all
storms in these parts, and when the
sun came out l took a walk down to
the lake. When | got there / was
greatly surprised to find large num-
Der of apparently dead fish floating
around on the surface--not little ones,
but good big ones, from eight to ten
inches long. When recovered from
my surprise gathered up a dozen or
two and took them to the house"
Yes chimed in Mrs. Moore, land |
cut them open to see if they were good
to eat, and what do you think! they
were chuck full of hailstones. / think
that when the hailstones started to
splash on the water the trout thought
they were salmon eggs and jumped for
them. and when they had swallowed
enough they froze stiff!' And" lIar-
ry then went on, when the sun had
been shining on them for a short time
they thawed out and swan away again.
In half an hour there was not fish
to be seen. An say" he concluded re-

An Assurance That Future Wars Must
Have Reasonable Grounds.
We are frequently told by cynical
critics that democracy is on its trial,
but when the democracy demands the
abolition of standing armies, or urges
a mutual disarmament, it gives good
answer to critics of this type. Such
facts are sufficient in themselves to ell
able us to contrast the blind and stag.
nant sclfishness of callous autocracies
with the advance possible under
broader forms of government which
stimulate the progress of our race 10y
putting the destinics of humanity in.
to its own hands, We have in
such expressions of the popular
voice an evidence of growing
sense of moral and intellectual
self-respect among the common people
Of the nations of the world. We are
coming to the time when the peasant
and the artisan will inquire into the
merits of a quarrel in which they are
ordered to sacrifice themselves. They
may refuse to stand up to be shot down
without asking questions, and not be 20
easily led away by appeals to that
spurious patriotism which has ever
been the device by means of which am
bilious monarchs and willy statesmen
have sought to make their quarrels
hose of communities. Hitherto we
have had democracy in name rather
than in fact. The way in which the
sayings and doings of monarchs and
statesmen are chronicled by the press;
the manner in which such people have
been allowed to act without question
upon affairs of the gravest concern to
humanity; the extent to which they
have been able to count upon the sup
port of the people in any war they
might resolve upon; the levity often
shown by them toward the interests of
the people-without whose support the
most powerful among them would be
reduced to the level of common clay
in such matters we have proof of the
extent to which we are still governed
by men whose chief claim to govern
often consists of the fact that their an
cestors did the same thing before them.

LOST HIS PHILOSOPHY.
The Fat Man Threw 1t Aside to Chas,
His Hat.

His Hat.
Up Broadway he wandered in the
afternoon hour when the rialto is full
of the passing show, clad in light
gray suit, pickadilly shoes and all the
gorgeousness of shirt front and neck
wear that the generous latitude OF
summer fashions allows. On his head,
Gaping his six feet and more of slen.
der height, reposed ono of those straw
hats with buzz saw brim.
Nodding cheerfully to many &C,
quaintances, emphasizing recognition
to more serious friendships with a
graceful gesture of his cane, he trav.
ersed the length of the parade until al
last Herald square was reached.
Just as he turned to retracc his step
perky breeze heeled off his hat and
started it on a long leg to port across
the wide esplanade.

drop languidly at his side. No change
of expression passed over his face, ne

features, nothing in fact seemed tx
have occurred that should disturb hi

Leisurcly he followed the sidewalk
line, contcnting himself with keeping
a watchful eye upon his cratic head
gear Soon the hat, as though tired o
its aping antics, settled softly on it
most hat side, and there defed TIL,

and replaced it on his head. Onward
he moved and was lost to the crowd.

whose votund girth betokened a knowl
edge of the good things of life, sait
aloud in his admiration:

American Energy.

In the year 1883, when the first con-
tract was signed for the increase OF
the United States navy, there was nos
a mill in the country that had cYct
made plates required in the specifica-
cions; there was no foundry suitable
to turn out the work, no FORCES for the
same, and no plant that could mako
the armor plates. Since that time there
have been brought forward shops and

work in steel. brass or iron that the
