The boy gave sniff of contempt and
began an examination of the papers on
Mr.. Halls desk, picking up some of the
letters and studying them, his lips go
ing through the motions of reading.
Artie sat, with face illumined, and
watched the boy. He was evidently
fascinated by the display of supreme
impudence.

Dancing and Tunnels,

A boy of asked to be taken with his
elders to ball. He was told that he
must first learn to dance. Upon this he
delivered himself as follows: But I
tan dance, and my way is more difficult
than your way. I tan dance alone, but
you have to be holded up" This was
not smartness, perverted ingenuity, as
some might suppose. It was bit Of
perfectly natural child thought. To the
little philosopher there seemed nothing
in the nature of things to make dancers
dance in ''pairs'' and hold one another
in SO tight a grip unless it were to keep
one another from falling.
In many Of these naive misinterpreta-
lions of what is seen the point of the
humor involves, of course, side hit at
grown up weaknesses which lie hid
from the child. A good example of the
charm of this childish innocence is given
by Mr.. Punch when he makes little
Jessie ask her mamma in railway car
rage, "Why do all the tunnels smell 60
strong of brandy?" to the disgust of a
Puritanic looking lady traveller sitting
close by. Here, indeed, Isuppose, every
body recognizes that the butt of the joke
is this hypocritical looking lady with
her carefully hidden bottle. -National

AMERlCANIZED CHINAMEN,
How Yankee Sign Painters Sophisticate
Oriental Names.

How Yankee Sign Painters sophisticate
Oriental Names.
1t is rather amusing to note the curl
GUS disguises under which Chinese names
appear on the laundry signboards so
thickly scattered through our cities. It
is the natural result Of the Chinaman's
imperfect acquaintance with English
and the sign painters absolute ignorance
of Chinese.
For instance, John goes to the painter
and explains Want paint washee
washee.''
''All right. What's your name?' asks
the painter.
'Name Cha Ii Ling" replies the
oriental, and down it goes on the sign,
''Charlie Ling ..-
1t is surprising the number Of these
Charles who wear pigtails, but it al
ways come to pass in the way just indi-
Gated.
One sign painter did still better. The
applicant gave his name as Cha Ku Ii.
This in due time appeared on square
red board as follows: "Chas. @. Lee,

It is often alleged that the Chinese
never become truly American, but here
was Chinaman pretty thoroughly
Americanized, one would fancy. It was
from the bumptious sign painter, how
ever, that he got his naturalization pa.

AS TO HATS.
slouched Hats Caused Riot In spein
Which Cost Many Lives.

Slouched Hats Caused Riot In spaan
Which Cost Many Lives.
Has not some one calculated that q
sixth part Of the memoirs Of ST Simon
in the original is occupied with the
controversy whether or not the presi-
dent Of parliament should wear his hat
or put it on the desk when performing
various functions? At length the mat
ter was compromised. & The Tiers-etat
should wear a chapeau rabattu, which
had the slouched brim pinned up. This
childish quarrel was remembered, no
doubt, when the states general met and
the king. harangued them. His speech
over, he put on his hat, and the noblesse
did likewise, according to their priv
lege. The commons had no such claim,
but they also clapped on their chapeaux
rabattus, amid fierce protests from the
mobiles. The revolution might have be-
gun that day with scrimmage in the
kings presence had he not removed his
own hat, when all, of course, did the
same.
But slouched hats had already caused
a riot in Spain, which lasted SO long
and cost so many lives that it might al
most be termed civil war; This was
20 years earlier. Charles LII thought
them untidy. He thought the streets of
his capital untidy also and denounced
both eyesores in an edict Every Spaniard
henceforth must pin up his Topping
!" brim, and every householder of Madrid
must clean the street opposite his prem
Uses. Forthwith the people rose. They
were little interested, comparatively, in
the street cleaning, but they would die
for their hats. And a good many of them
did, but not unavenged. More than a
week the fray lasted, but it was thought
remarkable by foreign observers that at
3 p. M. regularly the soldiers piled
arms, the furious citizens withdrew
and silence reigped for one hour. Both
parties were enjoying the siesta, except,
perhaps, the wounded. After that inter-
val they recommended. The king fled,
and for the rest of his life he never re-
turned to Madrid willingly. In fact, it
was understood he designed to make Sc
vile the capital henceforth, and only
gave up the project when his ministers
showed him what vast sum he had
already spent on the new palace. So,
mighty may be the influence of the hat
in state affairs! Finally the king COM
promised He withdrew his edict so
far as the realm at large was concerned.
Within the walls of Madrid every man
must wear his brim pinned up, but out
side he was at liberty to let it SLOUGH.
But the police courts did not cease to
be busy until the fashion changed.

Other Powers Ahead in Accepting the In
vitation to the Paris Exposition.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The French
government is rapidly perfecting the
details for the international exposition
to be held in Paris in 1900, commem-
Grating the birth of the century, aud in
this connection has asked the state de-
partment for the name of the commits
sioner general who will represent the
United States, and for such other infor-
nation available to the participation of
this country. To this Acting Secretary
Rockhill has replied that the commits
siOner general has not been named, as
the American congress took no steps at
its recent session to provide for Amer
lean
Representation at the Exposit on.
He expressed the belief, however, that
the approaching session of congress
will bring about an acceptance of the
invitation of the French republic.
President Cleveland called the atten-
tlpn of congress to the invitation III his
annual message last December, and ex-
pressed the most earnest hope that
steps would be taken for an adequate
representation by the United St;S.es.
But congress acts slowly on these af-
fairs and no measure was considered
the idea being that there was plenty of
time before 1900. It appears, however,
that Great Britain, Germany and other
leading powers have been quick to ac-
cept, and the French government Is
all0tting space to these countries.

ing all these long years of tOiling and waiting,
Mr.. Watkins little thought that men could be
found SO lost to every principle of right and
justice as to undertake TO despoil him OF his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, in this
matter, he learned that he was mistaken. In
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents Offering medicines said to be DR.. Wards or
lust as good as DR.. Wards, }" frequently leading
customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his busI-
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr.. Watkins bought from Richard Ward, the
worldwide right to use his name as trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the u. 5. Patent Office

Second.--Mr. Catron sought to charge

Third--Mr. Catron sought to limit the
number of legislative employees to six for
each house and do away altogether with
the employment of interpreters and trans

Dockney, Hall, Dearmond, Cooper and
Others were fully advised of the political
trick Mr.. Catron sought to play upon the
people of New Mexico by pushing this
outrageous amendment and they have
proved our friends to the last.
The result is mplete defeat for Dol
egate Catron.
Instead of his original political scheme
we have now law thst s most accepta-

The third Monday in S.suary falls on Il e

over to March l6, or twelve days after the
next president is inaugurated.
Under this amendment there can he

one sergeant alarms and doorkeeper,
one messenger, one watehman, one chap
