4 Tough Old Cuss.

II is announced that during the
present year Nasr-ed- Dan. the King
of Kings will descend from the Pea
cock Throne of Delhi and make a
tour Of the chief capitals of Europe.
as the guest of the sovereigns thereof.
To say that the news causes conSterna-
tion is 10 put the case too mildly. 1t
is a reign of terror.
His first visit to Europe was made
in 1873, and his second in 1879. lie
came again in 1889. and it was then
observed that his manners had not in
the least improved. lie still insisted,
for example, on throwing under the
table his plates and other dishes n
fast as he got through with their con
tents. Perhaps that is the approved
Persian etiquette. But in sumpt-
uously furnished European palace.
with china as fragile of cgg-shelIs and
worth its weight in gold, it is, to say
the least, rather trying. At his first
dinner as the guest of Queen Victoria.
in 1889. it is said, he thus DESTROYED Il
thousand dollars worth of rare china.
At all subsequent meals number
of walters were kept standing close
behind him, TO snatch up his plates
the moment he seemed done with them,
or at least TO take them from his hand
before he could throw them under the
table. Even despite these precautions
he broke several things and hit some
of the other guests on the feet and
shins with the dishes. AT one dinner
therefore. when some especially valua-
BILE china was used. four men were
stationed behind his chair. the floor
underneath the table was covered with
feather cushions and two expert jug
glcrs were actually kept under the
table. near the Shah's knncc<. To- catch
any dishes he might succeed IN fling.
ing down there In this way the
priceless china was preserved un-
broken.
On one occasion the Shah was seated
at at able next to one .: the most stately
and digniticd and royal princesscs oi
Europe. He was helped To some
asparagus, cooked in peculiarly
delicious manner. Picking up a stalk
in hi, fingers. he sucked the end ot il
with evident delight. Then turning IL
his fair ncighhor he exclaimed. "Ra
ba' How good il i~,'' and thrust III,
same stalk into her mouth for her ais,
tu taste.
Nor was his conversation less en-.
barrassing than his table manners.
Talking with nobleman of great
distinction, he suddenly asked: Il,
that your wife over there
YES, your majesty"
But she is old and ugly. Why
don't you yet rid of her and take n
new one, one of these voun. and
pretty women
As he spoke in u tone perfectly
audible to the lady under discussion,
and indeed To most of the company in
the room, the sensation produced may
best he left To immaginaiion. Nor
was the scene less embarrassing when
the Shaw one evening approached one

The passage by the Senate of the
hill which has already passed the
House, repeating the Federal election
laws, completes another of the promis-
es of the Democratic platform and
wipes out another mischievous relic
of the centralized partisan domination
that was developed by the civil war.
The Constitution of the United States
provides that "thc times, places and

party has consistently opposed it from

the opportunity TO abolish it.
Since the power To administer these
statutes has passed out of Republican
hands, II is probable that the system
would not have found many earnest

WHEN people become poor they
are very liable TO become pious. As q
result OF the hard times throughout
the United States, there is wonderful
revival of interest in religious affairs.
In the Western States census OF

10000 persons have joined the church
and resolved 10 live better lives. Great
revivals are also in progress in New

Hon. Harrison Kelley was in
troduced to the convention, and

ated great deal Of enthusiasm.
It was one of the best Populist

During Gen. Kelley's address,
bespoke of the pioneers of Kan
sas, and he said he had taught
his children, and his children
had taught their children, to re-
we're those pioneers and those
days-to revere the memory OF
those who died or who sacrificed
all they had for liberty. Here
the Hon. Alec johnson inter
rupted Gen. Kelley by saying
"It didn't look like it when you
elected a rebel colonel to con-
gress." After few casual re-
marks, Gen. Kelley replied, con-
graduating Alec on being in the
convention; said he supposed
Alec hadn't been in such good
company for ten years. He then
spoke of Col. Harris, our con-
gressman-at-large, and said his
every vote in congress had been
cast for the interests of the peo-
pie. The General added: 81
would rather vote for that man,
rebel though he might have been,
who now votes and works for the
peoples interests, than for {
man who wore the blue during
the nations trials, but has since
been bought by corporations, anc
whose every act was to help tc
bind the chains of oppression
more tightly about the people.
