MARDI GRAs OF NINETY-NINE.
How the Old Settler OF the Future
VIII BE Fortified for Future
Generations.

In the year Of grace 1915, or there
abouts, the Old Settler, seated in his
favorite corner in the biggest hotel of
the period, will proceed to call down
the incautious stranger who ventures
to advert upon the inclemency of the
weather. Gold this Mardi Gras!" he
will exclaim, scornfully. Why, young
man, you dunno what you're ta',-in'
about. You ought Of been here in 30!
[ s'rose you've heard tell of the biz
card that year. She hit us on Sunday,
day before the carnival. Gee whiz.
III never forget that morning. When
l got up l couldn't see nothing at all
but snow-just solid white, every which
way looked. Pretty soon along came
a man, blowing through the middle Of
the street, holding a kind of a stick in
his hand. uello.' says I, what's that
you've got-a broom q Broom nothing
says he; that's a trolley pole. I'm
rldin' on top of the car When 1 heard
that shut the window and told my
wife it looked kinder blue for the pa
rade But, say, it took more than a
little snow to stop us them days. Did
lex come! Well, you bet your life he
came. The river was froze solid, of
course, but the cruiser Dee-troit was
here, and she just turned loose a pair
Of them eight-inch guns and blew a
channel all the way up from the ietties.
1es, sir, that's exactly what she did.
When Rex landed, the chief committee
man says, says he: Rex, your majesty,
what'll y have??' meaning a hot Scotch,
or something like that But Rex
straightens up haughtily and SAYS:
Gimme setter lemonade and a couple
of electric FANS All my boy, that's
the kind of men we had back in 100.
= eSt Gay some oftha strangers III town
said there wouldn't be any parade.
Bless Your heart! they didn't know us!
1 never did know just how cold il was
when Rex turned out, cause I had only
one thermometer up at my house, but I
remember the steam froZe solid at the
hotels, SO they had to carry t around to
the rooms in baskets stead of blowing
1t through the pipes. Yes, sir, that's a
fact. But Rex paraded all the same. and
so did Comus. and, say, they were great!
The horses wore snow-shoes and the
men had skates. No, sir, don't mean
the kind of skates you're thinking
about, but sure-enough ones. It was a
magnificent success, sir! WHY, the
how's that? VIII join you? Wen, I
don't care if I don. o. Times-Demo-

ROADS TO TRUE HAPPINESS
We Should Not UnGes astimaae SmnYA
Deeds and Should rorSet the
SMALL Worries.

Happiness comes through the quiet
acceptance OF the talent, ,e1nperalIsnt
and task that God hath appointed. I'm
able to add one cubit to the stature, or
make one hair white or black, man is
also impotent 10 alter his birth-gifts.
Through heredity our fathers chose the
iife-work for US, and try as we may we
cannot alter their choice, though we
can break our hearts. To-day one part
Of society is making itself miserable
through an ovcrestimate Of great deeds
and an agonizing desire TO do strill-
ing things. Yet struggling and agoniz-
ing never did anything worth while.
The first sign of q great piece of work
is the case and swii5ness with which it
vas done by him appointed fer the task.
Another part of society destroys happi-
ness by Understanding small deeds
and duties.
God mountains are not made out of
huge chunks of granite, but out of
minute flakes of mica. Size has moth
ing TO do With the valued work, ard
man cannot be happy until he surrel,-
dcrs his will and chcGrfu:ly accepts
the che talent or two, or ten, counting it
| honor enough to do his appointed work
moro perfectly than any other can pos
s1bly DO 1t. We do not need great and
! splendid things, but that common
things shall be lifted up and illuminate
ed by 4 quiet and beautiful spirit.
One Of the secrets of happiness is
| found III the il;ibituai emphasis OF pleas
ant things and the persistent casting
aside Of all ma!lgn elements. We have
| read of Il scientist who could not walk
! through a flower garden and see a bush
| covered with roses without carefully
| selecting the Ole blightetl blossom
| Thus many pass through life, selecting
| the one unfortunate event Of the day,
and, lifting it up, they cast a gloom
| over all our hours. Experts tell us
watch is not impaired by running, nor
| a man by working, but rust will spell
the watch, and worry will consume
mans faculties. The medical schools
OF tomorrow must reckon with the
mental causes Of disease as truly as
with microbes and germs.
| The stIyet-swccpers fill their wag-
ons with dirt litter, old paper, broken
| boxes and Yin cans, and cast all this
rubbish into the soil. But Nature re
members only the good. She searches
out the single grain of wheat; she
nourishcs it to golden shcaf; She asks
the rags and iron-rust to lend rich
gold 10 the yellow grain. Nc MAJ, can
afford to remember The fears, the wor-
! rics and the 1nisfortllnes Of his career.
| Strange that the soul should rclIcarse
its sorrows instead Of its joys.-Rev.

 AROUND MANILA
Macarthur and Funston DisperSe 800 Insurgents American
 Scouts Fired Upon.

Manila. May 24.-While the Filipino com mission is in conference here looking to peace there is heavy fighting all along the line around Manila.
 Generals Macarthur and Funston, with the Kansas and Montana regiments and tho Utah battery. have dispersed 800 insurgents entrenched on the railroad beyond San Fernando. near Santa Arita-
 The American scouts were fired upon from the trenches unexpectedly and with drew. The firing was heard at San Fer nando, and General MacArthur assembled his troops and marched on the city after the scouts The Montana fianked the trenches on the left and the Kansas regi- ment attacked the enemys right flank Gen. eral Funston leading the charge at double quick.
 The insurgents loss was large, many of them being captured, and it is reported that twenty Americans were wounded.
 Two companies of the Third infantry and two companies of the Twenty-seeond in- fantry, forming General Lawton's rear guard, returning from San Miguel to Ba- lanag yesterday escorting a signal party, which was picking up wire laid with Gen. eral Lawton's expedition, found that tho ISeHlS ldQ E6-OCCupleQ lHd COuHITyS and hard fighting followed from daylight until the Americans camped at night. But the troops completed their work, though harassed by the enemy. One American was killed and fourteen were wounded. The troops captured twenty prisoners and thirty rifles.

Norfolk, Va, May 24.-The Southeastern Tariff association, composed of representa- tives of prominent American and foreign insurance companies, convened its eigh- teenth annual meeting at the hotel Cham berlain, Old Point Comfort, this morning. About 100 delegates and many ladies are present.
 The most important business of the open- ing sessslon was the reading of the presi- dents address by that officer, MT. Edward Gay. The address contained several sug- gestions of great importance, and their con- sideration and the action to be taken upon them will constitute the bulk of the con vention's work. The address alludes to the law in this state known as the Whar- ton anti-compact law which has now been in effect almost year and has, the pres- dent states brought about such a condf- ton of affairs that the association has made no effort whatsoever to maintain rates in Virginia.
