1t was said Of the late Lord Cardigan
that on one occasion he was extremely
angry with his keeper when very little
game was found In a certain planta.

the chOleric master ordered him to beat
through another wood, which he point
cd out, promising instant dismissal If
satisfactory results We're not obtained
"But, my lord" urged the Keeper
but he was interrupted by Lord Cardi-
gan: "Not word, sir; obey my orders
ut Oncc!" Terrified, the wretchcd man
skunk Off and the wood was duly beat
up to the guns. There was scarcely n
head Of game In 1t. Limp ana defect
cd, the unfortunate keeper now came
up, and when his lordship had said an
no had to say, and was compelled to
stop for want of breath, the poor man
meckly pleaded: "But. my lord, it's

to beat it.'-Blackwoods Magazine.

JAPAN's QUEER RoeeeRs.
They Are Polite and Require Thcis
Victims to he Moral.

They Are Polite and Require Thcis
Victims to lie Moral.
Mr.. LafcadiO Hcarn, In the paper
"From My Japanese Diary" in the At
lantic, tells of robbery in the house
Of his nelghbor, the dyer:
He told me a queer story about rob-
bers. Dyers are peculiarly liable TO be
visited by robbers; partly by reason OF
the value of the silks intrustcd to
them, and also because the business IL
known to be lucrative. One evening
the family were robbed. The master
was out of the city; his old mother, his
wife and female servant were the
only persons In the house ut the time.
Three men, having their faces masked
and carrying long swords. entered the
door. One asked the servant whether
any Of the apprentices were still In the
building. and she, hoping to frighten
the invaders away. answered that the
young men were all still Mt work. hut
the robbers were not disturbed by this
assurance. One posted himself Mt the
entrance, the other two strobe into the
sleeping apartment. The women
started up In alarm. and the wife ask
cd, "Why do you wish to kill us?' lie
who seemed to be the leader answered.
I'VE do not wish to kill you: we want
money only. But II we do not get 1t.
then It will be this" striking his sword
into the mating. The old mother
said. BE so kind rs not to frighten my
daughter-in-law. and will give you
whatever money there Is In the house.
But you ought to know that there can.
not be much, rs my son has gone to
Kioto.' She handed them the money
drawer and her own purse. There were
Just % yen and 81 sen. The head rob-
Der counted 1t and said quite gently.
1--WE do not want to brighten you. We
know you are very devout believer
in Buddhism. and we think you would
not tell lie. Is this allf" "Yes. It IL
all," she answered. II am, as you say,
believer In the teaching of Buddhu.
and II you come to rob me now. I be.
lleve 1t is only because I myself, In
some former life, once robbed You.
This Is my punishment for that fault,
and so, instead Of wishing to deceive
you, feel grateful Mt this opportunity
to atone for the wrong I did to you in
my previous state of existence" Tho
robber laughed. and said. "You are %
good old woman. and we believe You.
II you were all poor we would not rob
you Mt all. Now we only want n couple
Of kimono and this" laying his hand
on very fine silk ovcrdress. The old
woman replied. "All my sons kimono
I can give you. but beg you will not
take that, for It does not belong to my
son. and was conflded to us only for
dyeing. What IL ours can give. but I
cannot give what belongs 10 another"
THAT IL quite right" approved the rob-
Der, land VIC shall not take It,"
After receiving few robes. the rob.
bers said good night, very politely. but
ordered the women not to look after
them. The old servant was still near
the door. As the chief rObber passed
her he said. "You told us lie-so take
this" and struck her senselcss. None
OF the robbers were ever caught.

by Wholesale,

A young lady who was in hurry to
take train, ana wanted to buy Il
small shopping bag, walked into Il
wholesale establishment by mistake.
"Wili you show me n bag, please 2"
she began; but the clerk interrupted
her politely.
1--WE sell nothing at RETAIL" he said.
~ could only let you have bags by the
quantity"
"Dear me! Not one bag?"
"No, madam. I'm very sorry
"And I'm In such hurry! Well!
She turned toward the door, and her
eye was caught by sample bag on
the counter.
"Ah," she exclaimed "that's exactly
tho bag I want!. Couldn't you sell me
the twelfth of a dozenT"
She got her bag.

District Commissioners Refuse PERMITS.
sion for Open Air Meetings in
the Capitol.

WASHINGTON, April 26-The District
commissioners cast a damper over the local
supporters of Coxey's movement today by
refusing them permission to hold open air
meetings. 1t had been expected by the
enthusiasts that these meetings would
draw converts and cash contributions for
the canse. The Coxeyites are angered at
this refusal
The event of the day was the advent OF
the Citizen George Francis Train, who pre-
diets We are on the verge of the biggest
revolution the world has ever seen, and
the jeff Davis matter won't be an item in
comparison with it.
The authorities in charge of the capitol
buildings are now considering the advisa-
bility of formally surrsn1ering their au-
thority TO the District of Columbia and
asking that sufficient protection be given
by the police force of the city. Major
Moore of the city police force has promised
ample reinforcemsnts if necessary.
An Odd Fellows procession attempted to
march through the capitol grounds today
and WAS turned back at the entrance by
the capitol police. The Old Fellows
made some remonstrance, but when AS
sured that the law permitted no excsp-
lions they quietly submitted. The incl
dent will doubtless prove precedent If

grounds, as he has said it was his intention

ToLUCA, Ill, April 27-The little min

OF vast prairie, in Marshall county, is
wike awake this friday morning. An
army of nearly 5000 coal miners from
Spring Valley, Laceyville, Laid, Benton
vile, La Sale. Peru and Oglesby have
gone into camp at l a. m, at what is
known as the Big Sandy, four and a half
miles north of this place. The
army was accompanied by seven
brass bands, a fife and drum corps
and seven commissary wagons, the con-
tributions of the business men of Soring
Valley and vicinity. Food was distributed
20 the army. at this place. and a riot al
most ensued among the men. The throngs
climbed upon the wagons and those who
had charge of the distribution had great
difficulty in managing the hungry miners.
The army is commanded by Fred Knowles
At Mount PalatiDe an attempt was
made by the leaders TO hold mass meet
ing but the men were so anxious to march
on to Toiuca that orders failed to get their
attention.
At IL O'Clock at night General Knowles
ordered halt for the night at Big Sandy
and there the men are now camped. An
order to march will be given at a. m
The program when they arrive at Tolucca
at 8 a. m. is to call mass meeting imme-
diately and try to use moral suasion upon
the Teluca miners to quit work and help
the cause. Many of the miners are old
men and there are some women among
them. Besides the commissarv wagons
there are nearly hundred teams contain
ing people making the trip through curl
osity, making the procession nearly three
miles long. Some are very hot headed.
but it is believed the leaders can hold
them in check
Commander Knowles Immediately upon
the arrival of his men will interview
Mayor Twist and attempt to get him to
issue an order closing the saloons, as it is
feared that If some of the men get too
much liquor serious damage will result.
AT Toluca the situation is regarded in
serious light. and anticipating trouble the
Devlin Coal company ordered the mines
shut dawn yesterday afternoon, bnt it is
thought after the coal miners army leaves
and the men are willing TO go to work
