Good stun in Little Lord FnuntIeroy

The poor little chap wore a heavy pea
Jacket OF blue cloth, mounted with brass
buttons, a large, red tie, which tickled his
peaked face, and leather leggins, which
covered up the rest of him, except his long
golden curls, says a writer in the New
York Press On the. top of those he wore
a blue sailor cap. His mother gave him
to a Third avenue conductor, with injunc-
tions to set him off somewhere, and then
went to shop on Grand street. Later on
a boy of his own age. but dressed in
knickerbockerS and wooden stockings
squeezed beside him on the seat and pulled
one of his curis. The little boy, with the
golden hair grinned weakly. but had as
much chance to retaliate as a trussed

boy away, he. hoped off his perch and
came over to my side and said:
Say mister, help me off with these
things, will your
He threw his cap under the seat, and I
unbuttoned the pea jacket and the hot
stiff leggins, and held them on my knee
wondering what would follow The pale
little boy gave his cuTlS a shake and
sprang at the other one with SURPRISING
agility. Together they rolled on the floor
of the car, and before we could separate
them. the little boy with the blonde curls
would never have been recognized by his
mother. But he shed no tears He put
on his coat, hung the leggins over his
arm and climbed up beside me- Then he

What a peculiar transformation has
come upon Attorney General Olney-or
upon his critics. From being a "heartless,
souHess corporation lawyer" he has now
become something of socialist" ac,
cording to the wiseacres who pass upon
men and measures. The basis of the
Attorney Generals alleged socialism is
found in his bill to settle railroad labor
troubles. one section of the bill provides
that the Attorney General shall have
power to apply Tor a receiver. who shall
manage the road in the interest of the
public. when the employers and employees
refuse to submit to arbitration disputes
which threaten to impair, or may have
impaired. the public interests. 1t is said
that this is the longest measure in the
direction of government ownership of
railroads that has yet been advocated by
high authority in the government. The
Attorney General and Labor Commissioner
Wright are to address the labor committee
of the House in advocacy of their arbi-
tration bills.

The Alabama constitution provides that
no public officer shall accept or use a
railway free pass. But there is no stat
ute to carry the law into effect. The
legislature is trying to frame and pass
such a statute. The Montgomery Adver-
tiser says every legislature for a decade
has made the same effort. and failed.
One house would pass a bill, and the
other would kill it. In the meantime, leg
islators have been riding on free passes,
just as if constitutional provisions were
made for fun.

II is evident that the present congress

commission Of twelve members, half Of

ed by the President from civil life. four
by the President of the Senate, and four
by the speaker, who shall thoroughly con-

proposes that the Secretary Of the Treas

which 30 meet the governments obliga-
lions.
VIII not something like this have to
be done? Congress cannot afford to
reach the end of its term without doing
something to save the country from Sc
rious financial troubles. If It should do
nothing it would be condemned from one
end OF the country to the other.
The smith plan is the only one that
seems likely to command a majority

The old scheme Of deporting the negroes
from this country is being again agitated
in Washington, with amendments said
to have the strong favor of the Senate
committee on foreign relations. The
amended scheme is to annex Hawaii and
send the blacks there to form and run
purely black state, being one of the
United States. II is urged that the eli
mate of Hawaii is similar to that of the
south. the agricultural industries are
practically identical, and the conditions
OF life would not necessitate a material

Don't chew straws, toothpicks or chips.
The practice is dangerous. A Maryland
man had the habit of keeping a straw, a
toothpick or a chip in his mouth always.
Recently he was taken ILL., The doc
tors said he had appendicitis, and went for
him with their knives. They found in
the vermiform appendix hard little ball
Of "sawdust," made up of the particles
of wood the patient had swallowed in his
chewing. Keep constantly in mind the
fact that the diabolical little vermiform
appendix is always on the alert seek
ing what it may swallow of that which a
man devours, in order to get him into
trouble.

themselves great and powerful officials.
