Doubtful Compliments.

The compliments paid by the poor
are often put in an amusing way.
One old woman who was very fond
of the rector said to Mr. BerDays;
"You know, sir, us likes the rector;
lis ears are so clean" Surely an odd
reason for parochial affection. An
other admirer once declared with re-
gard to the whole staff OF clergy:
"You are all so plain" "a word OF
high commendation), "but as for the
vicar, 'e's beautiful" The greatest
compliment, though at the same
time the most curious Mr.. Bernays
ever heard, was paid by working
man to certain bishop, famous for
his simple kindliuess, "What 1 likes
bout the bishop is 'e's no gentle
man" ~ S'minster Goseue.

Bashful Girls Letter

DEAR MAUD:-The most shocking
thing has happened to me. You
know how bashful | am. Well,
young Mr.. Bjones has been paying
attention to me for some time. He
is Just as bashful as | am, but we
have managed to get along very
nicely. The other evening he came
to call on me, and we took a seat on
the rustic bench on the veraudah.
The carpenters had been at work
there that day, and pretty soon l
discovered that they must have
spilled some glue on the bench, for
| found that | could not move.
Well, sat there and sat there aud
kept hoping that Mr. Bjoues would
go, but he did not. Ten o'clock
came, aud IL o'clock, aud every little
while he would look at his watch,
but he never moved. Finally he
said:
MARY, think you would better
say goodnight, go in and leave me
here. | want to commune with
nature little while"
l said, mo, you go and let me
commune"
He said, mo, | just dote on com
muning with nature"
] said did, too, and then he said:
MARY, I'm stuck"
OF course had to confess that |
was, too, aud then we sat there and
considered what it would be best to
do. Mr.. Bjones said he thought it
advisable to wear the bench down
to the minister's house, get married
and then have it sawed off; but |
told him no, that l never would
marry with nothing but an ordinary
rustic bench for trousseau. said
il it was nice parlor sofa il would
be d ff-rent, but the family pride of
the De Smythes never have been
BUNDLED and never should be by me.
Finally we had to call papa. l do
not know exactly what happened
then, for 1 looked straight at the
moon, but / Judge from the tearing
sound that Mr.. Bjones must have
left at least yard OF goods behind
him, and | know that l left more
than that. ! have not seen him
since, and | do not know that wish
him to call, for both of us are so
bashful. You should have heard
papa talk But there This letter
is long enough; 70 l will tell you
about that in the next. An revoir.

Colorado Congressman DenOunces
the Utah R republicans.
AN AMAZING CONDITION
SILVER REPUBLICANS CANNOT
UNITE WITH M'KINLEYITES.
If Eldredge Were Elected, His First
Act Would Be to Stab the Silver
Cause-Utah Republican Platform
a Piece of Monumental Inconsist-
ency.
lspecial to The Herald.l


Ogden, Sept. 24.-Congressman Shat
evening. He is a candidate for re-
election on the silver Republican ticket,
and spoke freely about politics in Col
orado and elsewhere. He related the
troubles between the Mckinley Re
publicanS and silver Republicans in
Colorado, and predicted $4,000 majority
for the silver ticket in his state. Re
ferring to the methods Of organization
and the conduct of the campaign, he
said party lines were strictly pre-
served; that the silver Republicans
would not allow any number of the
Mckinley Republican organization TO
participate in their primaries, and that
the two organizations were entirely
distinct From this the conversation
led to the Republican situation in
Utah, and when told that the silver
Republicans and the Mckinley Repub-
licans had Joined in one convention,
Mr.. Shafroth could hardly believe i,
and at first thought that he did not
understand the proposition. When he
fully comprehended the situation he
denounced it in unmeasured terms.
THE election of the Republican nom
inee for congress-" said MIR. Shafroth,
would be a monumental piece of in
consistency. He cannot do anything
for silver if he is elected on a straight
Republican ticket. The very first vote
he casts will be to organize the house,
and it must necessarily be in accord
ance with the Republican majority, and
by so doing he would stab the silver
cause, for if the house was so organ
lied the committees would be all ap-
pointed with due regard to their en-
nifty to silver, and no silver legislation
could ever be reported.
another piece of monumental incon-
sistency was the platform, which de-
clares for silver and at the same time
declares against it by endorsing Nc
Kinley.'
Mr. and Mrs. Shafroth were here to-
day, the congressman attending to pri
vate legal business. They went TO the
depot tonight to take the train for Salt
Lake, but Senator Cannon induced Mr..
Shafroth to return and speak at the
mass meeting in behalf of Mr. Can
mons candidacy. They will go to Salt
Lake this morning and return TO Col
oradO Monday.

He adds: II appreciate the impor-
lance of the independent vote, but I

the principles for which l stand, at the
cost OF acting with what seems to be
bad faith towards my associates"

RoosEvELT's INELIeIBILIrY,
Question Not Presented to Governor
Black Until Thursday.

Albany, n. Y, S pit. 24.-The following
statement was given out at the exc
cutive chamber tonight, with the sane
! ton OF the governor: The story circu-
lated by the Fifth Avenue managers
that the knowledge of Roosevelt's in
eligibility has been known to the COVER
nor and his friends several weeks is
incorrect. The question of such ineli-
glblllty was first presented to the gov
ernor the night before last (Thursday.)
The question was then discussed and
the determination reached to submit it
TO the best legal talent obtainable. and
if it was decided that Colonel Roosevelt
was Ineligible, that fact should imme-
diately be conveyed to the Republican
managers in New York City, and also
publicly announced. The question was
that night submitted to and examined
by several lawyers of experience and
ability, among whom was Judge Coun-
tryman of Albany. They were to an
nounce their opinions on the following
morning, Friday. On that morning the
opinion was unanimously given that
Mr. Roosevelt was ineligible for the
office of governor. The leaders at the
Fifth Avenue hotel were Immediately
Informed, both from New York and
Albany, and conference arranged with
them for the same evening The con-
ference was held, as agreed upon, and
liz qOColiOl 10 was lnen QlS-
cussed
The statement sent out from New
York is therefore untrue, in that the
question of RooSevelt's ineligibility had

presented to him for the first time Be 4
fore noon of the next day it had been
examined and a conference arranged
with the Fifth Avenue leaders, and by

was published in the papers the next
morning. So that within 16 hours after
the matter first came to the governors
attention, conference had been ar
ranged with the Fifth Avenue leaders,
within "a hours the conference had been
held. and within Sc hours the whole
question was in possession of the pub
lie through the agency of the press.

A PURE FABRICATION.
Story About Germans In Philippines
Is Unfounded.

4
Washington, Sept. 24.-The officials of
the war department pronounce to be
without foundation in fact the alarm
list stories coming from sources in San
Francisco that Germany had shown any
disposition to arm the Philippine insur-
gents with a view of inducing them to
harrass the American army at Manila.
The officials stated to be positively I'M
true that this government had received
any such information. 1t is undoubt-
eddy fact that some apprehension was
caused at an early stage of the war by
the attitude of the German naval forces
in Manila harbor. But so far as can be
learned, that difficulty has been
smoothed away, and there has been no
recurrence OF unpleasant incidents in
those quarters.
Information, scarcely official, yet
worthy of credence, has reached Wash
ington to indicate that Germany would
much desire a coaling station in the
Philippines, preferably taking the
island of Palawan for that purpose.
But it is not supposed that Germany
would undertake to assert any claim
in that quarter unless there should be a
clear exhibition on the part of the two
DdllOnS properly Interested IN the HnIl-
ippines-the United States and Spain
OF disposition to consent to a division
of the island. On this point the Amer
lean peace commissioners have been
fully instructed.
As for the statement that Germany
was sending $4,000 rifles to arm the
insurgents. it was said at the war de-
partment that such an act would con-
stitute .casus belIi. and it was not
supposed for moment that there was
any truth in it,
