Favored lucinda Jane.

A noted eastern lecturer says that
the most surprising compliment she
ever received was at the close OF a
lecture she gave in town in Idaho.
The hall in which she lectured was
crowded, and she noticed ia the andi-
ence an elderly man who riyeted his
eyes upon her and listened with open
mouth to every word she said.
He came up to the platform at the
close of the lecture aud said heartily,
while he grasped her hand until she

The Denver Times has of late dis
played much improvement in its news
service and mechanical features. 1t is
now printed by 8 Mergenthaler Limo
type typesetting machines Of the latest
and most improved pattern, and IL
pages are issued every day excepting
on Fridays, when l6 or more pages are
printed The Times is the only daily
paper in Colorado which receives the
full day service of that greatest news
gathering organization, the Associ-
ated Press. The difference in time and
the unrivalled service allows The
Times to present the news of the world
up to 9 p. m. in its last edition. A
corps of over POO live correspondents
in Colorado and surrounding states
and territories enables it to present
the news OF the Rocky Mountain re
gion on the day it occurs, twelve hours
in advance of the morning papers,
while the local news service is crisp,
fresh and npsto date. The increase
in size allows The Times to introduce
several new daily departments. which
will be appreciated more especially by
its lady readers. The Times makes a
specially of the best serial stories that
can be secured, the one now running
in the paper being IAN Army Wife,"
Capt Chas. Kings latest and greatest
story. The presidential campaign is at

ard which is as long as the truck is

A man standing near on the wharf lifts
the baskets from the stringpicce and
sets them up on this box. Two men
stand ut the box, each with q basket Of
pineapplcs in front Of him, to count the
pines aud throw them into the truck,
which has racks at the sides; lengths Of
board are placed across the end as the
load rises. Two men stand il the truck
to level the fruit as it comes to them.

LAUGHTER.
Has 1t Evolutcd From the Brutal Yell
Over q Tortured Enemy?

Has 1t Evolutcd From the Brutal Yell
Over q Tortured Enemy
Just as tho hoof Of the horse is the
remnant of all original five toes, just as
the pineal gland i'll man is low said to
be the survival Of prehistoric eye on
the top CT the head, so. perhaps, this
levity in regard to particular ailments
(in others) may be the descendant Of an
aboriginal ferccity in man. 1t is q well
known theory that what We call humor
arose from the same source; that the
first human laugh that ever woke the
astouishcd echoes Of gloomy primeval
forests was not an expression Of mirth,
but exultation over the misery of q
tortured enemy.
There is to this day something ter
rible in laughter. The laugh of madness
or Of cruelty is q sound more awful than
that of the bitterest lamentations.
By means of that strange photograph
that we call literature we can listen
even now to the laughter Of the dead,
to the hearty outlaws or cynical litter
ings of generation after generation Of
bygone men and women, and if we are
curious in such matters we can probe
into the nature Of the changes that have
passed over the fashion Of mems humor.
For it has been said, not without the
support of weighty cumulative evidence,
that, as we penetrate further into the
past, we find the sense Of humor de-
pending always more obviously and
solely upon the enjoyment of the pain,
misfortune. modification or embarrass-
ment Of others. The sense of superiority
was the sense Of humor in our ancestors
or, in other words, vanity lay at the
root Of this, as Of most other attributes
Of our bumptious speciesl
Putting ear to our phonograph, we
catch the echoes of a strange and merry
tumult; boisterous, cruel, often brutal,
yet with here and there tender cadence
from some solitary voice; and presently
this lonely note grows stronger and
sweeter, as we travel slowly toward on,
time, until at length, through all the
merriment, we can hear the soft under
murmur Of pity. Does the picture not
seize the imagination-the long laughter
of the ages which begins in cruelty and
ends in Observation-Disclosures Review.
