WHAT POSED HIM.
The NEUROLOGICAL Centaur and the Proper
Medicine Man.

The NEUROLOGICAL Centaur and the Proper
Medicine Man.
The man with valise and an UNI
brella had bought one or two cheap vol
umes of fiction, when more preten-
tious publication on counter near the
door caught his attention. 1t contained
number Of elaborate pictures of myth
illogical characters, and he was CHANGING
rapidly through it when one of the
pages attracted his especial interest. He
fingered over it, turned several leaves
and then went back. After he had start
ed away and gone as far as the door
the fascination again proved irresisti-
bic, and he was soon gazing thought
fully ut the same page.
Can we do something more for
your" asked the clerk.
"You learn great deal about what's
in these books, don't your" he asked.
1--WE naturally become familiar with
the contents in the course of time,
was the answer.
"Well, it will probably be exposing
my ignorance for me to ask ii, but
wish you would tell me what that is,
and he turned the book around so that
the salesman could see. II never had
much chance to study up on natural
history" he added apologetically.
THAT, sir, is centaur," was the
answer.
His curiosity was not yet satisfied.
He dropped his head over on his shout
der and looked at the picture with enc
eye.
81 SUPPOSE he resumed, THAT this
thing wouldn't bother me so much if
hadn't recently gone on the road for 9
patent medicine firm. That has giveI
me an interest never had before. Ant
you know whenever man has just
taken up subject it's hard for him tC
get it off his mind. don't believe that
1 ever will get over being puzzled about
that centaur.
"In what way?"
Surprising he got sick?"
"Well?"
"Whom would they send for, a reg
ular physician or a veterinary surgeon?

GLADSTONE AND DIsRAELl.
The Ways of the Two Great Premiers
Were CuriousIy Unlike.

heard nearly all the great speeches
made by 10th the men in that parlia-
mentary duel, which lasted for so many
years. My own observation and judg-
ment gave the superiority to Mr.. Glad
stone AL through, but | quite admit
that Disraeli stood up well to his great
opponent and that it was not always
easy TO award the prize of victory. The
two mems voices were curiously un-
like Disraeli had deep, low, power
full voice, heard everywhere throughout
the house, but having little variety or
music in it. Gladstone's voice was
tuned to higher note, was penetrat-
ing, resonant, liquid and full of an ex-
quisite meditation and music which
gave new shades of meaning to every
emphasized word. The ways of the
men were in almost every respect curl
ously unlike. Gladstone was always
eager for conversation. He loved to talk
to anybody about anything. Disraeli,
even among his most intimate friends,
was given to frequent fits of absolute
and apparently gloomy silence.
Gladstone, after his earlier parlia-
mentary days, became almost entirely
Indifferent to dress. Disraeli always
turned out in the newest fashion, and
down to his latest years went in the
get upof a young man about town. Not
less different were the characters and
temperaments Of the two men. Glad
stone changed his political opinions
many times during his long parliament
airy career, but he changed his opin-
ions only i'll difference to the force Of a
| growing conviction and TO the recog-
milton of facts and conditions which
he could 10 longer conscientiously dis
pute. Nobody probably ever knew what
Mr.. Disraeli's real opinions were upon
any political question or whether he
had any real opinions at all. Gladstone
began as Tory and gradually became
changed into Radical. Disraeli began
as an extreme Radical under the pat
ronage of Daniel o 'Connell and changed
into a Tory. But everybody knew tina
Gladstone was at first sincere Tor.
and at last sincere Radical Nobod,
knew, or, indeed, cared, whether Dis
raeli ever was either a sincere Radica
or sincere Tory. Justin Mccarthy il

When BIondin Was Afraid.

One of Blondin's favorite jokes was
to offer to carry some distinguished
spectator across the rope with him on
his back. Every naturally refused,
and the great equilibrist, with genial
smile, would say, 81 am sorry you are
afraid l should drop you" But he was

He was exhibiting in Paris and was
about to cross the Seine on his rope.
Cham, the great caricaturist, had come
TO make a sketch. Blondin, recognizing
him, at once invited him to cross with
him.
"With pleasure, replied Cham, but
on one condition.
"And that isl queried Blondin.

Difficulties In the Way.

One argument used against annexation
is that the people of the islands, considered
as a whole, do not favor it. TO this the
representatives of the Dole government In
Washington reply that every voter In Ha-
wall is required, as n condition precedent
TO securing the right to vote, to pledge NM
self to that clause of the constitution which
declares annexation to the United States
to be the settled policy of the government
One difficulty in the way of statehood Is
the opposition of the foreigners, the Euro
peans. The English and Germans are
quite influential i'm Hawaii. They are op-
posed to the United States They do not
like this country, and they do not relish
the idea of living under the stars and
stripes They have for some time been at
work trying To stir up discomfort among
the natives. They have pointed out To tho
Kanakas that Americans came among
them as missionaries, apparently with u
desire TO save the souls of the original In
babitants, but that they have wound up
with owning the islands. Considering all
these things, the belief appears to be gam
ing ground in Washington that colonial
system would be much better for Hawaii
than territorial form Of government.
At any rate, with Hawaii probably ana
Cuba possibly coming In, this Is one OF the
most interesting questions OF the near III
ture. WALih"

Boston, Dec. 13.--1hc American
BOARD of commissioners for foreign
missions publishes its cighty-seventh
annual report. 1t shows total receipts
from all sources $842,7S1. of this I'LL
nois contributed s3s,915; Wisconsin
so,25o; Iowa sl3,137; South Dakota
s1,S37.
The report deals at length with
Turkish massacre in Armenia and
says the generous gift from nearly
every European state for sufferers and
care of orphans revealed an essential
unity of the civilized world in the
most impressive way These funds
amounted to $751; 9s.
The report also tells of famine in In
dia and how the Christians wonders
fully escaped the ravages of the Bu-
bonic plague.
This is said to be by far tie most
fearful year in the history of the
south China mission.
New problems are said to face the

Gated classes are studying the social
and religious questions With the usual
results AT the beginning OF cnigh;en:

was illegal, the commissioners of this
part of the Hills have been doing con

purpose from other sources. At n
meeting of the Black Hills member of

commission in this city, it was de-
cided to communicate with the govern
or of the state and recommend that
the county commissioners of the va
rious counties raise from the county
funds Il sum equal TO one mill upon the
assessed valuation of the counties. and
ask that the governor give the commits.
sioners his assurance that he will do
all in his power toward inducing the
next session Of the legislature to make
an appropriation to reimburse the
securities. About $4,000 would b.
raised in this way which would give a
very fair exhibit for thetstute.
