HOW HE RECLAIMED HIS VALlSE.
Listened to tho Advice Of the Crowd and
Then Took His Own Way.

1t was an hour after midnight when ho
toiled up the steps of the Alley l., carry
ing valisc. Instead Of putting it down
on the platform while he was waiting for
tho train he placed it on tho railing and
rested his elbow on it.
OF course, while he was in that position
some one brushed against him, and tho
grip took tumble to the roof Of low
building ~ feet below. Instantly every
one on the platform was on the spot asking
what had happened, some Of them sympa-
thizing, some snickcring and nearly ell Of
fering suggestions.
The fat man held out q cane with
curved handle and said, III you could tic
rope to this you might hook it into tho
handle of the grip and pull itup." Strange
to say, no one had q clothesline in his vest
pocket, and SO that idea had to be passed
up
you'll have to wait till morning." said
another, 'and get the people who own the
building to let you get up on the roof.
Better notify tho police, " suggested an
other This seemed to gain the approval
of the crowd except one man, who thought
it would he n good idea to tell the ticket
scllerabout it, which he Immediately start
ed to do.
All this time tho man who owned the
grip said not word, but calmly waited
until the crowd had exhausted its stock Of
suggestions Then he turned to colorcd
youth ard asked him if no could climb.
The hoy answered in tho affirmative, and
then the man said, "1ll give you u quarter
if you will shin down that iron support
and bring up my grip"
In loss than minute the valisc was in
the owners hands, and the Others were
wondering why they didn't think Of that
themselves. Chicago Tribune.

A large number of Republicans, mem
bers of the New Castle County Republican
Club, were in attendance at their hall,
corner of Fifth and Market streets, last
Friday evening, 1t being their regular
meeting night The meeting was called
to order and presided over by Howard
Staats, the regular chairman being absent.
Numerous expressions of opinion were
heard concerning the action Of the George
town convention, being unanimous in
their belief that if the Republican party
must suffer defeat at the coming election
the blame must rest where il belongs, viz,
on he actors in said convention. The
very fact of their refusing to endorse our
worthy Congressman, Mr.. Willis, of itself
should he II sufficient reason and Il justifl-
aNlc cause for every Republican in the
State tn ignorc the entire proceedings OF
that convention.
If there could have been single objec.
ton to his course since he has been our
Representative, they should have made it
known. We, as honest Republicans be-
linvc that the name Of Mr.. Willis on our
ticket gives strength to it. ON the other
hand we do sincerely believe that to leave
his name off carries with it hundreds Of
Republican votes 1t is II time honurcl
custom that when an officer is rcpudiatcd,
cause is shown for such action, In this
case, none can he shown. On tic contra
ry our representative has been highly com
plimentcd by his pr'rs, one of whom re-

They even went so far as to dissent
from allowing ono of their delegates from

A curious illustration Of dclicacy Of tasto
in cats has recently como under the Obscr-
walton Of tho writer A lean, apparently
hungry eat was offered II saucer Of milk,
which she tasted and politely declined. 1t
had been taken from a bottle that was half
empty and was therefore deficient in
cream. As an experiment, about half a
tcaspOonful Of cream was then poured into
the saucer. The cat went to it immcdi.
atcly, sampled OF it and was 2raclously
pleased 10 pronounce it worthy of being
Tapped to the last drop. A dog which had
been accustomed to largo bowifuls of rich
milk showed the same objection to the city
product unless he was allowed to have that
which was poured from the top Of tho bot
tie. Ills same dog was an cpiCurc as re-
CARDS cake. He would cat almost all
kinds, but the wag Of his tail varied &C
cording to the richness and dclicacy Of tho
food When il was Of the best quality, the
tail wuggcd rapidly and gratefully. Econ

- SARGENT, TIE ARTIST.
One Of the Most Prominent Figures In tho
Modern Art World.

The high reputation Of John Singer Sar-
gent makes him one Of the most prominent
figures in the modern world of art. No
American artist has occupied such an cx-
allied position as he has attained before
reaching his fortieth year; none Is more
celebrated in Paris London and the other
art centers of Europe. He has painted some
Of his best portraits In the United States,
and 'ILa Carmencita," the picture which
represents him in the famous Luxembourg
gallery in Paris was painted in New York
and first publicly shown at the exhibition
of the Society of American Artists. His
career has been cosmopolitan one, and his
youth was passed among surroundings very
different from those that effect the intel
lecGual bent of most American boys who
become painters and sculptors
Ho was born in Florence, Italy, in 1885,
whittier his parents had gone to live some
years before. His father was DIR. Fitz
Hugh Sargent, n Boston physician, and his
mother, whose maiden name was Newbold,
and who belonged to well known family
of Philadelphia, possessed the accomplish
mcnt of painting very clevorly in water
colors Educated partly In Italy and partly
in Germany young Sargent entered tho
Academy Of Fine Arts at Florence at a
comparatively early age and before he was
IS had spent several years in art study. He
learned to paint in water colors Us well as
to draw with the pencil or charcoal, and
one summer, when he was in the Tyrol
with his mother, Frederick Leighton, not
yet peer and president Of the Royal acad-
envy, but famous English artist notwlth-
standing meeting them, commended tho
boy s work and counseled him to continue.
The serious and earnest side of Sargents
character always impressed his fellow stu
dents in those Latin Quarter days. He had
no taste for dissipation, though he was by
no means puritanical. The lighter side Of
his temperament found satisfaction in
music, the thcater and literature and in
the keen appreciation of everything in tho
tastes and amusemcnts of the day that had
new or original favor. Though an eager
reader he was not bookman, but an OBJ
server. Alert Is the adjective which per-
haps best expresses the quality Of his pre-
dominating characteristic. He was quick
to sec and ready to absorb everything that
struck him as novel;" Sargent and His
Painting" by William A. Coffin, in Cen
