The Soldier Was a DipIomatist.

A good story of the Duke Of Yelling

Spain he invited young officer, who
had exhibited conspicuous bravery, to
dine with him in his tent. Riding by

overheard the young man exultantly
proclaim, 81 am going to dine with
Wellington tonight. -
"You might vouchsafe me the prefix
of Mr. at least, Captain -" re-
marked the duke dryly.

Family Names and Migration.

Southern family names are scattered
across the country below Mason and
Dixon's line from east to west in what
biologists would perhaps call drift.
AS the west began to be settled by peo-
ple from the colonial seacoast fringe
emigration tended to goin straight lines
so that the names of the Virginia sea-
coast appear in Kentucky, those Of North
Carolina in Tennessee, those of South
Carolina along with Oglethorpe's cock
neys in Georgia. Later the drift swept
westward into Arkansas, Mississippi and
Texas. In the progress names have been
curiously transformed. Flemish names
have lost the wan" or de" Huguenot
names, whether Flemish or pure French,
have been awkwardly Anglicized, and
even English names have suffered vio-
lent change. New York Sun.

The Silk Hat and Prosperity.

The silk hat, that most characteristic
article of London attire, is said to be a
sure indicator of prosperous or hard
times in that city. The denizens Of Chan
Gerry lane and Gracechurch street, those
who are found about the temple and the
exchanges, if briefs are plenty and bust
ness booming. faunt it in the glossiest Of
new tiles. But if business is slow the old
ones are ironed and do longer service. Just
now trade is bad and those of the hatters
of the English metropolis who are not go
ing bankrupt are growing and grum-
bling with all their might. Some of these
dealers in human roofs would get a good
notion of New York prosperity if, using
their habitual test. they had seen some of
Tammany's cohorts rolling off to help at
the Inauguration the other day.-New

WOMEN OF KENTUoKx.

The Enective campaign They Are
Making Against Breckenridge.
PITTsBURe, May 1S.-A gentleman who
has just returned from Kentucky was in
Lexington when Colonel w. G. P. Breck-
inridge made his speech there. He re-
lates some significant incidents of the
campaign. A Lexington man went
home the day of the speech with a
Breckenridge button on his coat lapel
and told his wife that he had decided to
support him. She replied: ''As the
head of the family recognize your right
to place your political influence wher-
ever you please, and as a loyal wife I
shall do what I can for the success of
your candidate. / am going to the
florists to get bunch of the finest white
flowers 1 can find. / shall meet the
train the colonel arrives on, invite him
into my carriage and ride up with him."
The citizen looked at his wife in amaze
ment. He knew that she was quite
capable of carrying out her program, and
he knew he mnst preventit. She agreed
to relinquish her plan when he took off
to oppose the colonel. Another Lexing-
ton man met some ladies on the street
and joined them in their walk. He
wore Breckenridge button. One OF the
ladies said to him: eve should be de-
lighted with your company; but we can
not be seen in public with man wear
ing that button, neither can we receive
such man at our home" The button
promptly came off. These are samples
of work the women of Kentucky are
doing against the reelection of Breck-
iurid@e,

worth the Money.

A British nobleman who was sued
for breach of promise is reported to
have declared that it was impossible
for him to contradict lady, and that,
therefore, he would not deny that he
had made the promise, but he insisted
that the lady had exaggerated the
value of his affections and that that
value was a fair question for jury.
The lady recovered one per cent. or so
of her original claim and the mulcted
nobleman declared that the cross-ex-
animation of her by his counsel was
amply worth the money.

How Tho Eriber Planned.

RICHMOND, Va, May 1S.-H. G. Cleg-
gett, private secretary of Senator Hun
ton, gives an interesting story of the
manner in which the effort was made to
bribe Huston, Bultz went to Warren
ton with letters and sought q interview
with Epha Hunton, jr., the senator's
son. He approached Mr.. Hunton as an
attorney and told him he wished to en-
gage his services in an important case.
He also told him his fee was to be $25,
GOO or more. He asked Bultz what
manner of service was required in con-
sideration of such a handsome fee, and
then it was that Bultz delicately init
mated it was to secure his fathers vote
against the tariff bill. Mr.. Hunton in
dignantly ordered him from the Office,
and also acquainted his father with the
fact. Senator Hunton laid the matter
before the finance committee, and they
prevailed on him to keep it quiet till
they might obtain few facts in the
case
