Annex like whirlwind. The two maids
trotted at her heels. She looked Car
men, brown as a Basque gypsy and
dashing as fits the daughter of land
above the clouds. She had the two
eyes of a lioness and the men in the lobby
stood in two dazzled lines as she
shrugged her shoulders, talked with
her hands, and asked for the clerk, who
could speak Partisan. Paul Cores
touched his brow and saluted like a
private in the presence Of the COM
mander.
There is no one on earth who knows
what was said, but the diva was pleased
tc ecstasy. She rushed to the elevator,
bidding the maid to bide spell with
the bundles. The boy, who was the
guide, raced down the hall and raped
at the corner suite, the best in the house
luxurious apartments that look to the
sun and the lake. A slender dignified
man with the right to wear a coronet
came to the door. There then happened
the incident concerning the actual vehe-
mence of which there is a division of
opinion.
Calve said she was honored to be in
the presence of the master of dramatic
perfection; the Sir Knight admitted he
was complimented by the presence of
the best in the operate world The one
remarked that she had come to evict
the English-drive them from their
stronghold, as her ancestry had done in
the day of war. The gallant master of
the stronghold capitulated at once call
ing to the man to place his traps in the
hall. He piled his baggage at the side
OF the door, and, sitting on the last
trunk, chatted for an hour All the ad-
Jectives and congratulatory phrases of
two languages were exhausted, and
when each had convinced the other that
both belonged to the circle of gods, Mr.
irving begged leave to bequeath to his
falr successor fuchsia which had
grown to bloom in the winter.

Kind to All Concerned.

To get rid of a bore try the method
pursued by certain friend Of ours.
When accosted by one, he shakes hands
warmly with his. prosecutor, glances
around anxiously, and, dropping his
voice, confidentially remarks:
Il must be off. There's an awful
bore here that I want to dodge; talk a
fellow to death. You understand, old
boy?"
The Bore with a wink)-I under
stand, old fellow. Departs without
the least suspicion that he is the bore. }

Eds. Record Union: Can you tell me
whence came the word ''bloke"?
know it's meaning, but have no idea of
it's origin. PUPIL.
Suisun.
1t is slang and of obscure origin. It
was applied to the Greek boxers who
fought with the iron-clad cestus, and
were deadly in their blows. Canova
selected the Greek "bloke" as the model
for his famous statue of ideal manly
form. So says the Medical Record" in
treating of deformities of the ear, which
were common and revolving among the
ferocious and brutal Greek athletes.

Eds. Record Union: Will you kindly
tell me If checkers is a modern game ?
Also, what is a good treatise on the
playing of the game? VET.
Sacramento.
No, it is not modern, but very ancient.
1t comes from someo of the ancient board
games. The Egyptians had it, The
Chinese trace it far back into the mists
of their traditional history The best
short instructor and treatise is a recent
one by a Howard Cady, published by
the American Sports Publishing Com
pany, New York
Eds. Record Union: At late lecture
at this place Mrs. Richardson, President
Of the State w. A. P. A., said that 'in
nineteen States of this Union foreigners
who had only been in the United States
six months were allowed to vote" How
is this? Some information regarding
the immigration and naturalization
laws along this line would be Of very
general interest at this time.
Upper Lake. I'll. B.
The "Record-Union" frequently treats
of the immigration and naturalizat ton
laws and favOrS reforms in each. OBJ
viously in this department we cannot go
into the subject extendedly. 1t will be
further treated, however In every
State in the Union the voter must be a
citizen of the United States except in
these cases: Alabama, Arkansas
Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana,
Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North
Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas,
Wisconsin, Wyoming, where aliens may
vote who have declared intention to be-
come citizens. In Indiana, in addition,

is an accusation of "bossism,' which the
witch the people must resent and which
you, yourself, must feel to be untrue. If
you were not in the heat of battle, in which
salf-lo7e and vanity are calculated to blind
you, you would see what is apparent to
every unbiased and calm mind, that you are
unjust to Governor Evans and have jumped
to conclusions that are unwarranted. How
can Governor Evans working for or accept
ing fee from Rhind for legal services rend
cred before and after the contract with the
syndicate was signed, be distorted into dis
honesty Rhind received commission for
his services to the syndicate; Governor Evans

when he acted as counsel in both the friend
ly suits brought before the Supreme Court

DR.. Bates and |, responsible instruments in
the transaction, were in constant dread that

another presented itself The Judges of the
Supreme Court lent every assistance in their
power by speedily determining the questions
Of law presented to them. Every depart
ment of the State government Was willing
and anxious to lend aid towards refunding
the debt. Governor Evans had nothing to do
with the transaction except in the capacity
as attorney for the broker whose commission
was at stake if the deal failed. If you were
not blinded by prejudice and passion you
would be bound to acknowledge what every

WASHINGTON, July. Ex-Governor

that his being State Senator could in no
wise make it dshonorable or dishonest to
prac actice his profession under the circumstan-
ces presented in this case. If you will re-
member my last word to you that night when
we had our conversation at Mr.. Bunch's
were, 'Take care that envy is not at the
bottom of this, and that you people in the
State House do not accomplish the over
throw of the Reform movement if you keep
on fighting one another in this way" and
now repeat the warning. If, saw any
thing in Governor Evans conduct to condemn
I would not hesitate, but believing as do
| that he has been guilty of no official miscon-
duct. cannot lend any help to drag him
down or allow any one else to use me as the
instrument of his undoing. Yours truly,
B. r. TILLMAN.
p. S.-Governor Evans has writren me
asking an explanation ofyour charges, etc,
in connection with our conversation, and l
have sent him copy of this letter as an act
of justice to him and to you. B. r. 7.
At the conclusion of the reading
Mr.. Duncan said that the letter to
Tillman was in reference to the Man
ming Times editorial and asked to be
allowed to interrupt the speaker.
Governor Evans: "Sit down. do
not want to have anything more to do
with you"
Governor Evans: II know you are
Haskellite." CHEERS Tor Egans.)
A voice: "What are you going to
do in Washington"
Governor Evans: !t'Something for
ignorant people like you" Qaughter.l
Governor Evans then directed his
attention to, Judge Earle again and
asked him why he had not answered
the Kollock queries published IN the
Cheraw paper. Judge Earle replied
that he had already answered them in
his speeches, but stood ready to an
swer them again, or any other ques
tions that any man might ask.
In some further reference to Gen.
E4rle's words or actions. the latter
arose and told Governor Evans not to
refer to him uuless he was going to
stick to the facts.
Governor Evans replied that he had
no special objection to leaving off all
references to the Judge as he was not
in his Governor Evan's) Way. Gap
plaus se and laughter.) He said that
neither of his opponents, although
they jumped on him, had pulled
single feather out of the tail Of the
"gamecock. He de6ed any one to
show one single act OF his which had
done injury to the State. He then
brancned off into national matters
and henceforth 10 the end everything
was as quiet and serene as u May
morning.
At the conclusion OF his speech he
was loudly applauded and handsome
basket of flowers was presented, where
upon he said that the ladies were with
him and that "he had got the coon
and gone on" (Cheers.)
