Roman Epicures.

When at its zenith, the Roman en-
pire laid all the barbaric countries Of
the world under contribution to supply
the tables Of its mobiles and wealthy
citizens with the fine Injuries of life.
Asia and Africa poured in the rich
spices and fruits Of the tropics; Ger
many and the great north countries
raised the grains and wild berries; TIA
" and the fertile land of the Franks
cultivated the vineyards to make or ex-
press the wines; every strip Of seacoast
from the Mediterranean to the Baltic
contributed its quota of fish, and the for
ests of Brittany yielded the wild game Of
the woods-birds, beasts and fowls-for
the banquets Of the proud, dissolute
rulers of the vast empire. With the
choice products of a great world 90 east.
~ obtained there were wanton waste,
foolish extravaganza and a strange dis
regard of the value Of expensive luxu-
ries, and the historian dwelling upon
these times delights in recapitulating
the various articles of diet arranged in
tempting manner upon the groaning Ia
bles at the great feasts and banquets.
But, excepting Nero's dish of peacock
tongues and Cleopatra's cup of wine
with the dissolved pearls in it, the me-
nu Of our modern banquets would COM
pare favorably with those spread in the
times when gluttony, licentiousness
and greed for luxury were insidiously
sapping the strength of Rome.-George
E. Walsh in Lippincott's.

Two Prime Ministers.

was reading recently published life
OF Mr.. Gladstone, and laying down the
volume for q moment be said: II was
thinking when reading it Of a compare
son between Mr. Gladstone's life and
my own. When he was at Eton prepar-
ing himself for Oxford, enjoying all the
advantages Of q good education, with
plenty Of money, and being trained in
every way for his future position As q
statesman, was working on . rope
walk at pence day and suffered such
cruel treatment that I was knocked
down with q crowbar and did not re-
cover my senses for half an hour. From
the rope walk Invent to labor in brick
yard, where was again brutally used,
and when MIR. Gladstone was at Oxford
I was breaking stones on the queen q
highway, with hardly enough clothing
to protect me from the cold" Truly .

KENTUCKY TAKES THE LEAD
In Making Lynch Law Less Popular Tha,
1t Is Now.

Frankfort, KY. May 13.-Turnpike
raiders murders from ambush and mob
lynching in Kentucky, especially the de-
faint operations Of the raiders, have
driven the legislature to adopt desperate
means. The senate has defeated a bill
passed by the house, ostensibly for STOP
ping turnpike raiding, but which was
practically ineffective. The senate unan-
imaously passed substitute which is
considered the most vigorous law ever
placed on the statute books.
1t requires jailers and other officers
holding persons threatened with mob
violence to arm the prisoner that he may
defend himself and protect the prisoners
with the aid of a posse, and gives a toll
gate-keeper the right Of certifying his
own house. 1t maks it mandatory upon
the county judge to furnish not less
than two nor more than ten armed
guards, summoned among the citizens,
who are compelled under heavy penalty
to protect for thirty days any tollgate
or other public or private property
threatened by raiders. and provides pay
for guards and severe penalties for all
offenders captured.

And Proceedings In the Senate Are Conse.
quently Very Tame.
Washington. May 13.-In the senate
yesterday the sugar investigation Of 1894
was recalled by the introduction OF a
resolution by Allen of Nebraska recit-
ing the circumstances of the fnyestiZa-
ton. the refusal of Elverton r. Chan
man to testify, his conviction in the
courts as contumacicus witness. and
the present efforts toward his pardon.
~he resolution proposes that Chapman
be brought to the bar Of the senate tn
purge himself of ccntumacy as a prere-
quisite to pardon. Allen sought TO So
cure immediate action on the resolution.
but it went over on objections from Gal
linger and Hoar. The latter criticised
the resolution as giving away the au-
thority OF the senate and said he would
propose an amendment with a view Of
having Chapman punished unless he
purged himself of contempt, without
reference to the question Of pardon.
Morgan made a statement relative tn
his resolution on Cuba. He said the conn
mittee en- foreign relations had consid-
cred the question Of referring the reso-
luton to the committee and had NOT
reached an agreement. The committee
desired. however. that the resolution go
over until noon today. with a view of
having q statement Of facts laid before
the senate at that time. On Morgan's
request the resolution went over.

The White Box.

The tailor's wife took her little boy
sut for walk the day after they moved
next door to the undertaker's. The lit.
tie fellow stopped just outside the wide
windows and Issinted his chubby fore
finger at the white coffin within.
whats that, mother?" he asked.
He had never seen a coffin.
"That's what they put little boys in
when they're naughty" said the moth
er. ''That's the way God Furnishes.
The bonny, boisterous lad was a great
trial to her sometimes when she was
weary with household cares, and she
resorted to almost any tale to keep him
quiet.
Every day after that the brown eyed
boy stood for many minutes and looked
at the tiny coffins behind the heavy
glass. He grew very obedient. too, but
the mother had become so accustomed
to fault finding that she never noticed
how well he minded, but continued tc
scold. just the same. With every reproof
his beautiful, brown eyes would grow
dark with a mist Of tears, and he would
ask half tearfulIy:
"Wil you put me in the white boz
for that, mother? Will God punish me
now?"
Months passed. One day the restless.
feet went astray again, and the mother,
in the moment Of her extreme vexation,
punished him more severely than usual.
Don't put me in the white box,
mother" he pleaded over and over
again between his sobs.
So saying, he fell asleep. When he
awoke, the fever was on him, and tho
pattering feet wandered away no more.
Another week passed. Then the brown
eyes looked up into hers, the pale lips
quivered, and he said feebly:
"Have you got the white box, moth
er? Has God punished me yet?''
Two days later the carriages came
and bore him away in state. God g
punishment had come.-Chicago Trib-
uue.
