he still continued oblivious TO her re-

and loud that she herself was startled

The philosopher, disturbed and anx-
ious to continue his discourse with his
friend, promptly complied with her de-
mand.
In very few days, however. Soc

And Aantippe, on her part, found it
ossible-accustomed as she was by
this time to the high key necessary to
make herself audible to her husband
to lower her voice when speaking to
others.
Daphne therefore remarked complain
ingly to Xantippe's friends and her
own: ''Xantippe's voice grows harsher
and shriller every day. Not content
with screaming at her philosopher. she
begins now to scream at u.s.
Aantippe soon found it necessary to
ask Socrates for money to buy new gar
ments. When she succeeded at last IN
making heT husband understand what
it was she required, he shook his head
doubtfully and answered.:
I'm my eyes, my Xantippe, thou art
beautiful and lovely i'll thy present gar

Beware Of vanity, which is also a de-

Xautippe, however, was not satisfied
with this Judgme nt of her husband. phi

garment she was wearing. Daphne, too,
assured her that the robe was not fit to
be worn.
When, therefore, Xantippe for a sec
ond time with tears and shrili upbraid-
ings, insisted On Socrates complying
with her desire, the philosopher, to be
lid Of her, gave her three times as much
money as she had asked for. And Kan

herself, besides the coveted garments.

Centennial of the National Capital.

When the year 1900 arrives, it will be
in order to celebrate the centennial Of
the establishment here of the national
capital The celebration should not be
small affair, nor ought it to be a mere
fleeing show - a day of. professions,
bands, banners and oratory. 1t should
be an exposition of what this nation has
done in the hundred years since its seat
of government was taken possession of
by the few officials who then directed
affairs. The exposition of 1900 should be
compact and select. Preliminary ex.
aminations by competent experts should
determine the worthiness of proposed ex-
hibits, and only the best ought to be
given space. An international exposition
at that time would conflict with more
than one European endeavor in the same
line, but aside from that rather i1npor-
tant consideration it would undoubtedly
be better to make the affair national
rather than internationally Washington

"The Cheerful Stump Orator." "the

handled in an exceptionally happy and
facetious vein by Hon. Webster Street.
Fellow representatives. of a class OF
poor peripatetic martyrs he had been
styled by the toastmaster and that he
was worthy of a crown was clearly re-
vealed. In the darkest Africa of Gre
ham county he had labored where, be-
side the chairman the candidates and
man in the audience there had been
no Republican, and yet by a def
process OF delivery of semi Demo

lican denoument he had made them
cheer for Murphy, thereby indicating
his right 10 be called a cheerful stump

Hon. J. II. Kibbey to the toast, "The
Efficient Committeeman" replied to
the fattering introduction of Colonel
Fitch by saying that he did not recog-
nize himself until his name was men
toned. But then everybody then knew
all about the noble work Judge Kibbey
had performed as territorial chairman,
and when he said that the efficient
committeeman was he who had the
good luck to be connected with the late
campaign, indulgent smiles of incredul-
itv were the fruit of his remarks.
1t seemed appropriate that Hon.

his having been occupied with the
prosecution of an important criminal

distinguish himself by one of his earn
est, serious, forcible addresses. In
connection with his subject he referred
to the Maine birth of the guest of the
evening, and to an occasion during the
Garfield campaign when in the city of
Bath. Me-, he had listened to a politi-
cal speech by the host, Col. Fitch, and
had been 80 impressed by the noble

Land Proof Bill Vetoed.

The president has vetoed bill al
lowing settlers on certain lands to
make proofs at convenient points. 1t
was introduced by Representative
Hermann, who says that it was in the
interest of people who live remote
from local land offices and of poor
settlers who desire to purchase tim
Der land, but who under the existing
law are required to appear at the land
office. Mr.. Hermann's bill permitted
the proof required to be made before
the same officers as are now authoriz-
ed to make homestead proofs, and
save much unnecessary expense to the
people. The president, Mr. Hermann
says, does not seem to know that SET
tiers can now make homestead proofs
before officers other than the land Of
ficers. The bill was carefully examin-
ed by the land committees of the
house and of the senate, and was de-
bated on its final passage and passed
with unamimity. 1t also passed con-
gress one yea, ago, but President Har-
rison could not return it within the
ten days required, as congress had adj
Journed over period exceeding that
time.-Vidette.
