Convict Stripes.

After July the convicts with a good
record in the Kansas state penitentiary
will wear suits of cadet gray instead of
striped suits. In referring to the matter
the warden of the penitentiary says:
~ believe the change will have benefi-
cial results. When made the announce
ment to the men of the proposed change,
they seemed highly delighted with the
prospect Since that time have OBJ
served a difference in the demeanor of
the prisoners, and the class of offenses
has been of a more trivial character.
The stripe is older than the penitentiary
in this country. 1t came across the
ocean. The lockstep came with it. We
associate both with the penitentiary,
and in the public mind the chief mark
of disgrace in going to the penitentiary
is the donning of the stripes. The con-
viots know this, and hence the opportu-
nifty to keep out of them is seized upon
by all men sent to prison, especially by
men who still possess hope and ambi-
ton to be something better than con-
victs."

Donald. the Deer.

Donald, the deer, was for several
years the PET of the "Auld Forty twa, {"
the historic regiment of highlanders
known as the Black Watch He went
with the regiment to Dublin, where one
day, without any previous training, he
took his place at the head Of the troops
alongside of the sergeant major and
marched with them wheresoever they
went.
He did not care for maneuvers and
evolutions and was often a mile away,
feeding, while the troops were drilling,
but when the time came for going home
he was always found at his post
When the regiment had the duty Of
guarding the castle, Donald went with
them, making his way through the dense
crowd of Dublin idlers as one who could
take care of himself. Once a rough
offended him. Donald instantly singled
out the man and chased him through
the crowd. Fortunately for himself the
rough escaped, for Donald had an IN
pleasant way of using his antlers, which,
though cut, were still formidable.
On the march from one town to an
other Donald would become footsore
and get out of temper; then woe to the
hostler i'll the stable yard who interfered
with him after a firing days march.
donald had another failing great
liking for alcoholic liquids" writes
Archibald Forbes in his history of the
Black Watch. His particular wanities'
were whisky and sherry. AT Limerick
as soon as the officers dinner pipe
sounded he made his way to the mess
room windows, which were on the
ground floor, in search of strong drink,
until at length a severe fine had to be
enforced on any one giving it to him."
When the regiment went to Corfu, it
was arranged that Donald should have |
the run of a noblemans park, as his
temper made it inexpedient for the pet
to accompany the troops to a land of |
strangers. He was tied, put into cart /
and carried off, bleating pitifully and
even shedding tears.
In the nobleman's park he sought out |
of the way places and declined inter
course with man or beast. He attacked .
all who approached and finally had to
be shot. The separation from his be-
loved troopers made him pessimist.

A Postal Congress Delegates Natural Err
ror Near the Tomb of Washington.
On the trip of the delegates to the
postal congress down the river to Mount
Vernon recently a strong wind was
blowing off shore, and just before the
boat reached Mount Vernon the breeze
waited a very bad odor to the nos
trils of the distinguished foreigners and
caused the ladies in the party to pro-
duce their perfumed handkerchiefs and
the gentlemen to puff fiercely on their
highly favored cigars and cigarettes
When the delegates had arrived and
were walking about the beautiful
grounds and taking careful note of
everything they saw, many were no.
ticed to cast their eyes heavenward and
point out to one another the half dozen
or more large birds which were sailing
and circling above their heads. His ex-
cellency the delegate from Austria was
one whose attention was directed to
these birds. He approached Mr.. Robert
Hatcher, the American secretary, who
had won the admiration of the dele
gates by his lucid explanations of all
things seen and unseen about which
they inquired during their stay in the
city and in choice French remarked:
Monsieur the secretary, am glad.
Monsieur, l am delighted; am salts
fed. Visit the home of the great Amer
lean, General George Washington, and
above me in the beautiful blue of your
summer sky l see circling the noble
American eagle. Monsieur, l am to be
congratulated.
"Gee whiz!" said Mr.. Hatcher in an
aside. "What am to tell this MANI"
Equal to this emergency, however, as
he has always been to any in the past,
he assumed his politest air, and accord
ing to his own statement he is the po-
litest American ON earth, and said in
good but sorrOwful French
''Alas, monsieur, the honored dele
gate to the postal congress universal,
have the honor to inform your excellen-
cy that the birds he sees floating SO
gracefully in the air are not American
eagles. Alas and alas, monsieur, they
are buzzards-turkey buzzards. I re-

clopedia to learn the character of this
bird.
Mr.. Hatcher heaved a deep sigh, and
the delegate walked away with sor-
rowful but puzzled expression. This
made Mr.. Hatcher even sadder, and
calling to the delegate he suggested:
"But monsieur may say that he has
seen American eagles at the home of
There will be none to dis

it warmly, offered him cigarette and

Very respectfully,
John D. Long, Secretary"

A vigorous effort is being made to Sc
cure the restoration of the house rates
on sailed and picked fish Senators
Hale and Frye of Maine, and Senator
Hoar, Congressman Moody and Con-
gresham Simpkins of Massachusetts,
have charge Of the movement. They
claim that the house schedule which is
slightly above the Mckinley rates, has
been intelligently and scientifically adj
justed to afford something like reason
able protection to American fishermen.
The senate committes, adopted the rates
of the Wilson law. It has been pointed
out that the United SIXTIES is compelled
to compete with the bOunty-aided fish
ermen of Canada and France, and that
the senate rates would not enable them
to sustain the competition. Senator Frye
lays great stress upon the point that the
development of sailors Is more import
ant than the mere value of the fish In
voved, and that the senate rates would
drive them from the ocean. The com
mittee did not state what action they
would take. but the New England men
are hopeful that the house rates will be
restored IF they are not restored in the
senate. Governor Dingley will make
STIFF fight for them in conference com
mittee.
