The Post-Intelligencer AZ the END
inst, says:
"Hon John 3. Mcl(fllin, tho well
known Republican leader IN tho north.
western part Of the state, came up from
San Juan Yesterday and reGistefed g
the Seattle. Mr.. McAfiliin has not
visited Republican headquarters since
the election, and yesterday he went to
| the Pioneer building to congratulate
Chairman Schively and Secretary Ly-
sons, Of the Republican state central
committee. In discussing the election
he said:
eve Of San Juan are especially grati.
ned at the defeat Of fusion and the
triumph Of the principles for which the
Republicans Of Washington stand.
You do not know, perhaps, that the
Republican party of San Juan has
stood out for sound money for eight
years past. Even when the Repu6li-
can state platform declared for free
coinage, we In our county conventions
came out strongly for gold. Our finan-
cial plAnks have been invariably for
sound money during the past eight
yean, and they have always been
adopted with nnAnimity. The fact Of
the matter II, we have never had any
representation Of silver sentiment in
the Republican county convention, Of
San Juan that now remember Of.
"This is why we are especially
pleased at the election. San Juan
county has made steady Republican
gains for some years past. Two years
ago we carried the county and this
time we elected our ticket by q good
majority, showing slight increase
even with q lessened vote over 1895. II
think the Post-Jntelligencer should be
accorded credit for much Of the victory,
for there Is no question but it made the
best fight ever put up In its history.
Its single tax arguments struck the
fusionists hard. and in every respect Its
campaign was conducted with pene--
tratiOn, sagacity and foresight"
Mr.. AfcMillin declined to discuss the
senatorial situation. He has never
announced himself as q candidate, yet
he IL usually considered as factor by
politicians in summing up the situa-
ton.

just Like q Girl.

He is very young boy. His is the
age when lofty contempt for the oppo-
site sex manifests itself, the contempt
which usually finds merciless retribu-
ton in later years
His task Of watching the baby was
not as distressing as it might have been.
He had utilized the bassinet as a era
die and had found a place where the
floor sloped little.
Behind the vehicle he extended him
self and with head on hand proceeded
to read a story paper. An occasional
pull at a string fastened to the rear axle
impaired the motion necessary to keep
the slumberer from waking. But the
baby soon had it's nap out and began to
cry. The boy paid no attention to the
noise, and after awhile his sister came
to investigate.
II suppose you are going to lie there
and wait for the baby to learn to talk
SO it can tell you what it's crying
about?''
"No;" he answered, "being able to
talk wouldn't make much difference"
B. "Why not?'
Because it's a girl. Girls never
know what they're crying about. It
just comes natural to them to do it. -

He Turned the Laugh.

President O'Hanlon of the Penning-
ton IN. j. seminary used to preach
every Monday morning at Ocean Grove.
and one of his regular hearers was
a good Methodist brother who used
to shout "Glory" whenever anything
pleased him. Once in awhile this shout
would come in at an inopportune mo-
ment.
After DIR. O'Hanlon had been preach
ing on Monday mornings for number
of years he arose one day to announce
his text. He introduced his remarks
with these words: Brethren, have
been preaching here at Ocean Grove on
Monday mornings for a number Of
years, but some Of these days when you
are gathered here I will be missing, for
the grass will be growing over my
grave Just then the shouter uttered
a shrill "Oh, G-l-o-r-yp'
Sedate as was that congregation, there
went up a hearty laugh. The doctor
was equal to the occasion. He put his
hands in his pockets, leaned back and
said, "Well, brother, what have you
got against me?'' The laugh was turn
ed, order was soon restored, and the
doctor preached with his usual power
and acceptability. New York Tribune.

The Americans In Egypt.

Americans occupy an important posi-
ton in extending the prosperity and
civilization Of modern Egypt.
Not only do they form at least one
third of the tourists visiting Egypt, and
number some Of the leading Egyptolo-
gists, but the benefcent effect Of their
missions and schools is everywhere ap-
parent throughout Egypt. The magni-
tude of their Christian operations may
be gathered from the fact that the
Egyptian mission of the American Pres
byterians has 100 stations, 20 churches
and 81 schools. Ask little Egyptian
child where it has learned it's English,
and it will very probably answer, cat

doctors, too, are of much service. An

Gypsy Dancing Girls of Seville.

In The Century Mr.. Stephen Bonsal
writes OF Holy Week In Seville. -
lie says: On returning homeward
we enter gypsy garden, where, in
powers OF jasmine and honeysuckle, the
Gadltan dancing girls disport them
selves as they did in the days OF the
poet Martial. Penthouse is as graceful
and as lissom today as when, in the
ages gone, she captured Pompey with
her subtle dance--as when Martial de-
scanted upon her beauties and graces in
classic words centuries ago.
The hotel keepers in Seville are gen.
orally very careful to introduce their
patrons only to gardens where the Bow
dlerlzed editions of the dance are per-
formed, but commend to those who
think they can "sit it out'' the archaic
versions which are danced naturally to-
DAY, as they were in the days of the
Caesars, by light limbed enchainers of
hearts and flamenco girls with brown
skins and cheeks that are soft like the
side OF the peach which is turned to the
rlpenlng sun, and in their dark, lus-
trous eyes you read as plain as print the
story Of the sorrows and the Joys of a
thousand years of living.
Now they dance about with the grace
OF houris, the abandon of manads or of
nymphs before Actaon peeped, and
now, when the dance is over, the mo-
ment OF madness past, they cover their
feet with shawls, that you may not see
how dainty they are, and withdraw Sc
dately and sad from the merry circle
and sit for hours under the banana trees,
grooming softly some mournful cuplet in
the crooked gypsy tongue.

London Press Sorry to Have AmbassadO or

LONDON, Aug. 16.-The afternoon pa.
pers, without exception, express regret
at the probable return of Ambassador
Hay to the United States to succeed
Secretary Day and they hope that he
will see his way clear to decline the
secretaryship OF state, as it would be
sin to interrupt the ambassadorial
career promising great results for the
future of the two nations.
The Westminster Gazette says:
While an American before all, none
could have worked more effectually to
foster the growing Anglo American
sentiment. The recall OF Colonel Hay,
while gain to his country, would be
no slight loss to ours.
