Lengthenin the Ewes.

1t is said that it is common custom
practiced among the Turks, who hold
long eyes in such exalted esteem as to
lengthen them by cutting the corners
of the eyes. This is done very early
at the age of two or three years-the
outer corner being deity slit with a
lancet about the twelfth part of an
inch. While the wound is healing the
lids are drawn outward every day, and
when it is quite curved the eye is still
submitted to the drawing process every
day for long time, with the eventual
result that it becomes long and narrow,
and satisfies the taste of the "unspeak-
able Turk"

General Miles has evorvtb;no ra.du

General Miles has everything ready
for transferring his Headquarters
from Washington to Tampa, Fla.
That fact tells more about the i'll
tentions to make immediate use of
the army than could possibly be told
in words without revealing plans
that it would not be expedient to
publish at this time. 1t is hardly
necessary to say that General Miles
is not going to Florida at this season
of the year for his health, as the
Spaniards will shortly discover.

TWO OF A KIND.
They Both Wanted New Coats to
Keep OFF the Rain.

Shortly after o'clock last evening
stranger attempted to steal coat
from the store of Albert Elkus, on
street, near Tenth, but was detected
and placed under arrest. AT the Police
Station he refused to give his name and
pretended to be greatly under the in
f1uence of liquor. He was conducted
into the hobo cell and locked up for
investigation.
Later in the evening one of the clerks
in Marks clothing store, on K street,
caught a man attempting to steal a
coat from one of the dummy figures in
front of the store and he promptly
grabbed him. The fellow showed fight
and for time made things exceedingly
interesting for all hands. When the
patrol wagon arrived, he was taken to
the station, where he again showed
fight, but was promptly overpowered
and strapped down.
He refused to give any name, but
claimed to be subject of the Queens,
and demanded the presence Of the Eng
lish Consul. saying that he would see
that his Government would make it
very hot for the United States because
of this outrage on his personality. He
also expressed considerable contempt
for the fighting abilities of Americans
in general, and Michael Angelo Fisher
in particular, who he promised to pull
VeriZe if the straps were only removed.

The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1898-02-11
Joe Miller.

Mr.. Robert Bell, writing i'll The New
Illustrated Magazine, justly observes
that if You ask nine men out of ten who
Joe Miller was they will tell you he
was a humorist and an author The fact
is that he never saw Joe Miller's Jest
Book" The theatrical gossips OF his
day (16S4-l73S), who eagerly set down
eyery title of the "comical exploits OF
Joe Hayns and every foolish saying of
the witty Colley Cibber, have no jest to
chronicle Mr. Miller. He was, in
deed, a ser; GUS if not melancholy man.
He uttered no more humor than was set
down for him. Nevertheless he was in
high favor with the pit at Drury Lane.
He first appeared on that stage in 1909,
and from TIA till the year of his death
his name was seldom absent from the
bills. A history of his life would con-
sist almost wholly of a list of the parts
he played, which were for the most part
countrymen and heavy fathers.
The real author was John Motley, a
former friend of Miller, who, taking ad-
vantage of Joe's reputation for dizziness
and pitying his widows necessities,
compiled this volume of jests. Many Of
them were lifted bodily from similar
productions of earlier date; others were
floating stories of the town. The book
