Not 90 Funny, AFTER An.


The misfortunes Of others are filed
with irresistible humor in many cases,
particularly in the moro trifing acts of
every day. To see q man sit on his own
stlft hat is relished with keen enjoy,
ment by every other man in sight. If
another man finds that the crush has
come in reality to his own headgear
after laughing wildly at the supposed
hard luck Of his friend, then the situa.
ton is q thousand times funnier.
A young man with this human trait
strongly developed swung down WASH
ington street at a sharp pace. He car
ried his macintosh flung over his arm.
At the crossing of 9Th avenue there was
a rattle Of coin and a shower Of nickels
anddimes rained OH the pavement from
some unknown region. No one was
more astonished than the young man,
and he stopped with great interest and
watched passers eye the scattered cur
rensy askance and then shyly, as in
fear Of a trick. Finally all of the pieces
had been picked up by small boys and
other sensible pedestrians, and still
there was no trace Of the source. The
curious young man enjoyed the Incl.
dent and the study Of human nature
that It afforded, and had got about two
blocks farther on his way when his
face heightened instantly as he ex-
claimed: "By jove! that change fell
out Of my macintosh pocketw-Chi-

Too Much ~chcapncss.

Are cheap things good for anything?
Yes. apparently, for the man who
wants to buy, but certainly not for
the man who wants to sell, nor yet for
the man whose labor is a factor in Dro-
ducing the thing sold. Since everything
is produced by labor. no cheapenins
system can benefit it, and. incidentally,
labor being n consumer, all of those ac.
tivities with which it has business re-
lations suffer together under the reign
of cheapness.

Thurman Warns Up.
Goodwin wanted the state normal
school left out of the university. This
provoked more debate, during the
course of which Thurman moved to
strike out the section on the univer-
sity, and said there were no prece-
dents for locating the educational in
stitutions in the constitution. The
matter has always been left to the
legislature, in whose hands they will
be absolutely safe. An endeavor was
being made to confine ITO one place
instead of an allowance being made
for location of a branch anywhere.
The institutions now established do
not belong to Salt Lake or to Logan.
They belong to the state. 1t comes
with i'll grace from either of these
cities to ask for permanent location.
The sentiment in Logan and Salt
Lake should not be gratified by bind
ing the legislature hand and foot.
Thatcher-Would it not be the part
of craftsmanship to settle this con-
tention between Cache and Salt
Lake?
Thurman think not. We should
not turn aside from our duties TO
settle a squabble between factions.
After some more discussion, in
which Roberts said it was in the in
terest of the educational institutions
to settle the controversy, the COM
mittee arose.
The convention adjourned at 5:15

, Roberts said if only theory were
up he would favor union; but con-

Union will not compensate for the
sacrifice necessary to obtain the bene-
fits. Grave mischief would result from
the uncertainty if the matter is left to
the legislature. Nothing could so hurt

for the poor. 1t was the ladder on
which they could climb into promi-

union. Either there must be econ

would have to be made. He was not
in favor of spending so much money.

Burst was on the G. A. R. national PEN

duties in that line brought him to Wash

registered at one Of the uptown hotels with
his friend Stephens. and after transacting
some business and having considerable fun
with the boys they retired for the night,
occupying the same room.
The next morning Burst was wandering
slowly down F street, apparently having
much difficulty with his wooden leg fer
he got along very slowly, but evidently not
painfully. as his face was beaming with
smiles. In the middle of the square an F
street car stopped. and very excited man

THE STRANGER SMILED,
But the Young Man Didn't Know That
There Wns Anything to Smile At.


There Was Anything to Smile At.
An eminent scientist from distant city
was visiting Washington short time ago.
Being eminent and being scientist he was
accorded the privileges of the Cosmos Club,
being provided with a visitors card. He
much enjoyed seeing and meeting the many
men of note who occasionally drop in at
the club for little diversion. One evening
there seemed good many strange faces
present, in fact, there seemed to be no one
in the room that the visitor had been intro
duced to. He was anxious to know who
some of them were, for he judged from
their appearance that they were lions so
he made bold to address one OF the younger
men, who was particularly we'll dressed, and
who seemed perfectly at home. He called
the names of several who were pointed out
and seemed pretty well posted as to who
they We're and what they had done.
And who is that man in the bay window
with the heavy bcard?" asked the stranger.
''Oh, that's Professor - was the re-
ply. He published 4 book on Sociology a
short time ago. 1 don't see how he could
know much about society. I went out a
good deal myself last winter, and I never
saw lin at tea or reception, Or any other
social gathering"
The stranger uicd not to let him see that
he smiled.
