cox RECOGNIZED HIM.

From the Chicago Mail
Congressman A. J. Hopkins, of
the Aurora district, is just now prom
nent as a candidate for the republi-
can nomination for governor. The
congressman boasts a splendid head
of fiery red hair, and to that physi-
cal popularity he owes his first
prominence on the floor of congress.
1t was back in the days when Car
Isle was speaker of the house. He
had left Washington for few days
and "Sunset" Cox of immortal mem
ory had been called to the chair.
Hopkins, along with a hundred or
more congressman, was engaged in a
daily struggle to catch the speakers
eye and secure unanimous consent
for the passage of private bill
affecting only the people of his own
home town. For a week the young
Illinois congressman had clamored
vainly for recognition. Finally, one
morning Acting Speaker Cox left the
chair for moment and came down
on the floor of the house. Mr..
Hopkins approached him.
"Mr. Speaker" said the Illinois
man, stake good look at me. l
have been trying to catch your eye
every morning for two weeks. l
wish you'd get my features 30
clearly in your minds eye that you
couldn't help seeing me when / get
up to morrow
The wit of the house laid one hand
on Hopkins shoulder.
"'d know your red head" he
said, "anywhere in the world. Do
you know, Hopkins, the first girl 1
ever fell in love with had hair
exactly the shade of yoursP For
her sake I'll recognize you to morrow
morning."
Cox was as good as his word.
When next morning came fifty or
sixty congressman were on their
feet trying to catch the speakers
eye. But "sunset" simply waved
them into silence, and said:
"The gentleman from Illinois
MIR. Hopkins"

ON MANNERS.


From Harper's Young People.
Manner is little hard to define.
1t is something to be felt, the express
zion of PERSONS life and thought.
One girl has bright and vivacious
manner, and another is calm and
dignitied. One reminds you of the
stars, another of fireworks. Grand
mammals manner is gentle and tran
gull, Cousin Rob's is impulsive and
hurried; little Miss Finch has 4
manner both fussy and fidgety, and
Laura Belle has the manner of
queen. The rude and brusque young
person makes her companions
uncomfortable. The well bred per-
son makes those about her happy.
No well l-bred person has bad man
ners, though such person may have
shy or awkward or reserved
manner. The latter may be one's
misfortune, the former is one's fault.
| am glad that the girls are return
ing the the beautiful courtesy of
bending the knee and the body as
we'll as the head; it is much
prettier and more graceful reverence
than a mere bow. Nothing about
manner in young girl is o bewitch-
ing as Difference, the paying attention
to older people, and showing kind
ness to younger ones, and setting
everybody at ease.
If you are in doubt how to behave
on any occasion, look at the people
about you, and see what most of
them do. The majority are generally
right. There are one or two rules
always to be observed. You speak
to your hostess when you go to a
reception or party, and you wish
her good night when you leave, At
the table you wait until the lady of
the house is seated before you seat
yourself. You thank every one who
does you a service. You are care
full not to interrupt conversation;
you do not set older peoble right,
even if you know that they are mis-
taken; you do not try to get the
best place yourself, you endeavor to
give that to your friend. In the
street You do not attract observa-
ton by loud talking or laughter. If
you are in public conveyance, as
a car or ferry boat, for instance.
you yield your seat to the elderly
lady or the old gentleman, or the
tired mother with child in her arms.

COSTLY INTER FERENCE.

FROM the Detroit Free Press.
A man got on a Michigan Central
train just as a woman was getting
off. The result was a collision and
bad blood on both sides.
"Look where you are goingln
snapped the woman, "you ought to
60 out with guardian"
"Oh, you think you're smart"
retorted the man, and then the train
pulled out, leaving the man on the
steps of his car glaring after the
woman, who was hurrying off in the
distance.
Clocks mighty suspicious" he
said to himself.
He went into the day car, and
found only one seat not fully occu.
pied, and that had an infant asleep
in it.
The man looked at the sleeping
child, and then gazed around the car
with the look of one who was search
ing for some one he did not find.
Then he darted to the door, seized a
brakeman, and dragged him into the
car and to the seat occupied by the
sleeping infant.
"Where is the mother of that
child?' he demanded in a suppressed
voice.
"pm sure don't know" said the
brakeman. "She doesn't seem to be
here.n
81 know," said the new passenger,
"ahe got off the train when l came
on. She has deserted her child
that's what she has done"
Clocks like it, said the brake
man. "I'll call the conductors" and
he did.
The conductor knew just what to
do. He had seen such cases before,
and he left the baby at the first
station they stopped at, with orders
TO forward iG to Detroit to the police,
with description of the absconding
mother.
Then the man who wanted a seat
got one, and gloated over the fact
that he had outwitted termagant of
woman.
After while a woman who had
slept long and soundly in a seat at
the further end of the car, arose and
looked about her as If listening for
something. Then she walked to the
seat occupied by the new passenger.
"Where's my baby?"
There was deathless silence, then
voice that grew ten feet higher
with every word it uttered, repeated
the query: "WKat. have you done
with my baby?"
1t took the conductor, the brake
man and the rest of the passengers
to hold the woman while the man
tried to explain the facts in the case,
and after he had settled the item of
telegraphing, cost of transportation
for the baby, damages to the moth
er's feelings, and other expenses, he
was permitted to go on his way un-
molested. And he never again will
try to get even with a woman.

THE CLERGY.

From the HIawatha tKansas) World.
An item crept into the World last
week that seemed like a rather
unjust reflection on ministers.
It intimated that ministers
preached longer sermons than they
should. We get quite tired Of hear
ing people find fault with clsrgymen.
Next to editors they do more work
and get more abuse In payment than
any other class.
Did you ever consider how much
your minister does well2
DO you know that besides prepsr-
Ing two sermonS each week he must
mako friendly calls, sick calls, preach
funeral sermons, patch up the dis
putes Of singers In the choir, coddls
Brother 30 and So and take tea here
and dinner elsewhere.
His calling Il busy one, indeed.
And be could be justified not only
In preaching short sermons, but hs
might just = well preach old onei
over and over again.
BY the way, have you paid youl
parson his salaSyf

THE WEEK ABROAD.

For American readers who look
below the surface of affairs, the cen
ter of interest in foreign events
shifted during the past week from
the old world to the new. The pros
pective change of chief executive in
Brazil has been looked forward to
with no little concern, as promising
to afford some evidence with regard
to the merits of the long. continued
conflict between President Peixoto
and his opponents, and also as to the
chances of Brazil for peaceful, con-
stitutional government. The retire
ment of Pre- ident Peixoto from office
and the accession of President Mo-
raes have taken place, and in man
ner to crafty every friend of the
great South American Republic and
indeed every lover of constitutional
liberty. The conservative and pacific
course which President Moraes has
entered upon gives hope of quieter
days for Brazil, while the example
thus set may be expected to have a
healthy moral effect upon the other
Spanish American republics.
There has been no material change
in the situation in the east. Japan
has not yet taken Port Arthur, and
the belief is growing that the capture
of that stronghold will prove no hol-
iday feat. Another naval battle is
expected any day. 1t is reported
that Japan has politely and diplomat
ically but none the less firmly an
nounced for the information of all
concerned that she will consider no
offer of mediation and no roundabout
proposition OF any kind looking to-
ward peace, until China has hoisted
the white flag and thus, in the Ian
guage of war, confess to her adver.
sary her defeat. President Cleve-
lands proifer of mediation has been
approved by part of the republican
press and disapproved by a part of
the democratic dress.
Alexander III was laid at rest in
the tomb of his fathers, and it is
"officially announced so say the
dispatches, that Emperor Nicholas
will wed Princess Alix. The past
week has brought rumors of closer
relations between Russia, England,
and France, new triple alliance.
AS yet, however, the rumor lacks
such confirmation as to command for
it serious consideration.
From the east come reports that
several thousand Armenians have
been butchered with most horrible
atrocities. The reports are still dis
credited in some quarters, although
the general disposition, based upon
the record of the past, is to give Gre
dence to all such rumors, with some
reservation as to details.
Destructive earthquakes have vis-
tied southern Italy and Sicily, and
floods have worked great havoc in
England.

WHAT CHINESE CALL US.

From the North China Herald.
The Chinese, when they first knew
their eastern neighbors who are now
exhibiting such restless war spirit,
named them Wa people. In their
histories this single word was sum
cient. BY change Of vowel during
1000 years Wa has become Wo. In
the imperial declaration Of war of
August l this is the term used, and
is brief and sufficient. The Chinese
like monosyllabic names for count
rles. The various foreign nations
have, when making treaties, usually
chosen the monosyllables which indi-
cate their names. England, King
kwo, means "the flourishing country
for ying, the treaty character for
Great Britain, has that sense. Fa
means law, and France, Fa-kwo, is
the ''law abiding country" Germ
any, known as Te- -kwo, in the
"virtuous country" The United
States republic, Keikwo, or "beau-
tiful country" Italy is the "country
of JUSTICE" I-kwo.
Each treaty nation has chosen its
own name for moral effect. 1t has
been a matter for international
diplomacy, and the Chinese govern
ment has invariably given way to
the wishes of each Of the treaty
powers as represented by its minis
ter and his Chinese secretary. From
the time that the ministers of the
treaty nations had residences in
Pekin the name of the country
made use Of in diplomatic cores
pondence has been, Of course, that
which was satisfactory to the treaty
powers. The same was the case
with Japan. Japan, there can be
no doubt, prefers Jipin, the "land
of the rising sum-" because 1t is
more poetical than the name Wo,
which means submissive" "wind-
ing and twisting" On tie whole
Japan wishes to be known as the
land Of the sun, Ji-kwo, but she
also likes Jipin, which is the same
with Japan, and she has not made
the use Of the term Wo a matter of
complaint.

THIRST TORTURE.

settled themselves right between my

red hot needles, with rusted sides,

tongue, and the top of my head felt

numb and useless from the pain.
