A Plan Tint Failed.

Its sad story" said the drummer. as
he counted up his available cash MY idea
was to say nothing about il. but I under
stand that the other fellow is going around
telling the story as a joke on me, and
might as we'll give my side of the story
for the truth is bad enough without hav-
ing it exaggerated.
One night last week found myself
obliged TO put up for the night at little
country hotel some miles west Of here. It
was chilly evening. and several loungers
were lcafng in the barroom matching pen
MES to kill time. They were as much in
terested over it as though millions were
at stake, and il gave me tired feeling
to watch them.
There was another drummer a friend of
mine, who was doomed TO pass the night
ct the place. and suddenly / was seized
with bright idea. / had collected a bill
for my house for $50, and had CHANGED
to be paid in S. gold pieces. / got my
friend aside and said:
See here, lets wake this house I'D and
show them where they, are at. l have ten
s5 gold pieces. 1 VIII give you ha-f of
them, and we will start a fake gamb.iny :
game, and astonish the natives
My friend agreed to the plan, and we
started matching So gold pieces on the
bar, while the loungers gathered about
and breathlessly watched the game, with
their eyes fairly hanging out of their
heads.
I'VE had been at it for only a few min
utes when the village marshal came up
and arrested us both for gambling. I tried
to explain that it was only joke, but he
wouldn't listen, ard showed his determi-
nation to take us to jail for the night
We prevailed upon him to send for the
justice of the peace. who saved US from
the lookup by holding US on our own
rocognizance to appear before him n1xt
morning. at which time he gently fined US
S25 apiece and confiscated the evidence to
pay the fine.

A Friend of Goethe Now Living.
From the London Chronicle

Among the few Goethe veterans who knew and
couversed with the poet, born century and
half ago, is the Widow Castner. in her
eighty seventh year. She a pupil in 1923
and 1924 at the town school for girls in Wei
mar, and the pretty custom OF that institution
was that the four best scholars Of each year
should call upon Goethe offer their congratua
tions on his birthday and present him with four
bouquets, arranged on four plates, with lemon
set in the midst of the flowers The venerable
poet received his young visitors with stately
eordality, shook hands with each in turn, asked
them few questions as to their scholastic prog
ress and heard them recite a short poem. Then
the flowers were collected in basket, aud the
lemons placed on q tray by the major domo.
who gave back the plates to the girls with
small coin apiece. Frau Castner retains vivid
impressions Of the ceremony, for she had the
honor OF taking part in it twice.

Commissioner Price Charged by the
Mayor With Misconduct.

mayor Win misconduct.
ALEXANDRIA. Va, Sept 30.-The re-
cent appeal of Lieutenant Smith from the
decision of Mayor Simpson. who suspend
ed that officer for ten days for alleged
dereliction of duty in falling to awake two
policemen found asleep in the police sta
tion and the subsequent action of the DO
lice commissioners in reversing the action
OF the mayor and restoring the lieutenant
TO duty with pay, has tended to widen the
breach in police circles. AT the session of
the police commissioners on Wednesday
night Commissioner Price charged the
mayor with mismanagement of the police
force. and Mayor Simpson alleged that
Commissioner Price was guilty of miscon-
duct in his official capacity. Mr.. Price, the
mayor stated. had, in company with
member Of the police force. visited certain
resorts for the purpose OF securing evil
dence against members of the police force
as would lead 10 the dismissal of the latter
Commissioner Price did not deny having
made the Investigation in company with
the chief of police. as he had been advised
that members Of the force had frequented
the resorts referred -, and that his action
in the matter was prompted by sense of
duty. Mayor Simpson stated yesterday that
he intended to remove Mr.. Price from the
police board IL he finds that he has the
power to do so. 1t is an open question
whether police commissioner is a State
or municipal officer. although they are
elected by the city council. Mayor Simp-
son also stated that he would not be gov
erned by the decision of the police COM
missioners in restoring to Lieutenant
Smith to duty, and that If an officer in
charge of men, finding them asleep on du-
ty, fails to arouse them, he will regard
such officer as guilty of dereliction of duty
In the Alexandria county court yester-
day the grand jury returned indictments
against j. w Clark and John Turney,
charged with promoting policy. Indict-
ments were also returned against Lee Can
dler and Henry Gambler for selling liquor
on Sunday and without license. Capiases
were issued for the arrest of the parties
against whom indictments were returned.
Commonwealth's Attorney Ca,lin has
written to the Secretary of War of the re-

county authorities to prevent the closing

Compulsory Arbitration.

(From the Philadelphia Lcdger)
Compulsory arbitration is possible only where
there is a power strepg enough to make it conf

power does net exist. Therefore. Commissioner

compulsory arbitration imprscticable ard is cor.

"a legacy to humanity. Here there is a
large field for Christian philanthropy. The
widow has tc be helped to earn her bread,
and there are few ways OF doing this in
the East. Needlework was formerly used
to add some little additional comforts to
the home lifes but now when it has be-
come the sole support, it has to be sold
in Europe and freights and tariffs cut
deeply into the proceeds, leaving but
scanty sums for the worker. For these
there are no bright outlook in any direc-
ton and their sorrow will cease only when
memory ceases to act.
so also there are many children in Asia
Minor-poor, wretched. forsaken children,
but not necessarily orphans. The children
that were eight or nine years old four or
five years ago are the youths and young
women of today. In a few years all these
orphans will have reached an age when
they will be no longer fitting objects of
eleemosynary help. The case of the wild
CIV is different There hardly seems any

mothers reply, whereat Caleb laughed
with delight, in which he was joined by
his older sister, Susan, who, indeed, had
made the music. The difference in
their playing, when the players were
not visible, was not distinguishable by
Mr.. Penguin; he had seen little Caleb
carrying off the harmonica, and he
thought that this was Caleb playing
now. But not so Mrs. Penguin. She
has the mothers instinct. She knows
every beat of the children's hearts, and
she could tell the children one from
another by their breatbings in the
dark If Caleb and Susan played the
har1nonica so much alike that nobody
else could tell 'em apart, she could
easily. They can't fool their mother.
