Interrogation, as a figure of speech.
may be made quite effective when used
by a writer, but must be treated warily
by the orator, lest it provoke discon-
certing replies. Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
delights in repeating a story of his
youthful days in Scotland. He says
that a minister, who gave full value for
salary received, and ordinarily
preached for an hour, one morning,
when in splendid condition, spoke for
an hour and a half. Then, without
turning a hair, he remarked that what
he had hitherto spoken concerned the
major prophets. He would now turn
to the minor prophets. But what
place." he asked dramatically, shall
we reserve for Malachi?" Just here a
restless sister of the flock rose from
her seat under the pulpit, noisily
dropped her psalm-book, made her way
down the aisle, and after opening the
heavy, creaking door, turned to face
the astonished pastor and people.
Malachi" she said, s%uccinctly, NAL
achi may have my place."

In attempting to regulate the apparel
OF the schoolma'ams of Kansas City,
the superintendent of schools of that
town is not only getting beyond the
outskirts of his official authority, but
is also getting SO far behind the pro-
cession that there is no possibility of
his being ready for the twentieth CEN
fury when it arrives. He has gone on
record as being opposed to a movement
that promises more for the liberation
of womankind from the thraldom of
senseless fashion than any similar re-
form of the century.

Persons sometimes wonder why pat
ent medicines, prepared foods and
other proprietary articles take such
outlandish and heretofore unheard-of
names. Mr.. Duell, the commissioner
OF patents, in an address on trade
marks before the commercial congress
made it clear. The government can
not allow a mar to use his own name
as a trademark, for other men may
have the same name. Neither can he
use a geographical term, for other peo-
pie have a right to hat as we'll. Any
descriptive word denoting the quail
ties or ingredients of the article is
also unavailable, for other producers
might use the same materials and be
entitled to the same descriptive ad-
jectives.

The humorist's assertion that talk
is cheap, women half price, seems in
the whirligig of time to have brought
in it's own revenges. At the recent in
ternational council of Congregational
lists, every speaker exceeded the time
allotted him thus encroaching upon
the privileges of his successor. At a
subsequent meeting of a state fedora
ton of women's clubs, only a single
speaker overstepped the limit of time,
and the exception was a man!

The Hen That went visitins.

Several days ago DR.. Alver, OF aWaverly,
drove to Morganfield in buggy. Upon
his arrival here he discovered that one Of
his hens had ridden all the way with him
in the back end of the buggy. The docto:
had to go further down the road, SO he
''shooed" the hen out of the vehicle and
left her here. DIR. Alver was gone all that
day and night and part of the next
Inc hen, in the meantime. found her way
to Jailer Snodgrass chicken coop, where
she spent the night. When DR.. Alver re-
turned to Morganfield the next day he put
his horse in Payne & Meals livery stable,
and. Of course, the buggy belonging to the
medicine man was only one OF large num-
Der about the stable. But, strange to say.
that old hen seemed to know when the
doctor returned. and, with a remarkable
display Of animal instinct, picked out his
buggy, got back into her place and waited
for the doctor to start back home.-Morgan-

Transports - Splendid Showing
Made By Capt. Robinson's once.

1t IL doubtful whether any quartermas-
ter's office in the United States ID able
to make the showing contained In state
ment prepared yesterday by Capt w. w.
Robinson, jr., Of the disbursements made
by him during the year 1888. The total
disbursements for the year were 5. 54.20S
an enormous sum when It is remembered
that q year ago the ONCE had scarcely
any disbursements outside OF the con-
struction work at the Magnolia blum
army post
As may be easily imagined. the fact
that Capt. Robinson has expended q MIL
lion and q quarter Of government funds
in Seattle during the past year is almost
totally due to the fact That the govern
ment, recognising the advantages of the
northern route for transports beween Sc
attic and Manila and the resources of
the local market for obtaining supplies
Of every kind. has transacted large
part OF it, 1888 business at this port. This
business was formerly centered almost
entirely at San Francisco. The first ex-
pertinent made by the government In
procuring supplies for Otis army here
was when cargo was p SrSna ss,s doF 1.-THE the
Seattle last May; 30 successful was this
rected that the Third cavalry embark on on
men, with civilian employees and upward
which carried the. Third cavalry were re-
fitted at this port.
A. has been already told In the Post-In-
telligencer. the government business sent
here, involving this shipment Of animals
and supplies to the Philippines, increased
Capt. Robinson's disbursements from a
few hundred dollars q month to over $780,
900 in September and considerably over
$4,000 per month since that time. Several
weeks ago the Post-Intelligencer printed
a statement secured from Capt. Robinson
showing that the disbursements of his Of
nee up to December ! were considerably
over $1.000,00O. Yesterday the following
tabulated statement was prepared by Capt.
Robinson and furnished this paper, show
ing the actual disbursements for the first
eleven months Of the year. with Decem-
ber's expenditures estimated.
The statement Is as follows:

of Bhopaul. and governs a people of more
than 100000 souls. This dwarf is a
woman, Djihan-Beg by name, but, al
though she is about so years old, she does
not appear larger than a child of 10. Her
diminutive size does not prevent her, how
ever, from holding the reins Of govern
ment with firm hand. and in her realm
quiet and order are supreme.
