Nashville Jubilee Singers

We had 'em last night-the col
ored minstrels under the high
sounding name of Nashville Jubilee
Singers and Georgia colored min
strels.
The entertainment was not as
good as we expected by several de-
grees, and we found ourself yawn
ing several times with sleep knock.
ing at our door.
The first part, where the interlo-
cutor is supposed to bring out all
the latest jokes and receive rip
roaring replies, was a drag-and
the singing was miserable.
Hallback and Lemly, the two end
men, were the entire show when it
comes to critical work. About the
only thing that was sprung on the
audience that was laughable was
the bogus telephone by Hallback
aud Lemly and there was enough
sacriligious injected into it to make
Hottento pause after he had
laughed to ask himself why he h ad
let his risables get away with hi m
at such cheap fpn at the expense
of what should, be sacred to us.
The telephone used was claimed to
be a new patent, one of those
space talking machines. 1t was
coupled on to heaven for the pur
pose of calling up salt Peter"
Saint Peter as the moke at the
phone insisted on calling him This
call was for the purpose of ascer-
tanning if a certain coored gentle
man was there who had departed
from this world to that from
whence no traveller is supposed to
have ever returned. The questions
asked and the answers received
were cheap wit. Of course the
coon was not there, and the inter
ested person at the phone was told
to try the lower regions which he
did and there he found his man,
but was told that the individual
was too busy firing up to answer
telephone calls. The show would
make a good companion piece to
90 with Algers embalmed beef.

Not a Good Risk in Kentucky.

The manager of life insurance com
pany had the floor, says theeWashington
Star.
Life insurance companies " he was say
ing, ARE as particular about the people
they already have on their lists as they
are about getting them on in the begin
ming. They are rich, of course, but they
are no more anxious to take in a man who
will die of disease within the first year or
two than they are to take in a perfectly
healthy man and have him hazard his
life by taking personal risks in dangerous
pursuits or by travel in unhealthy coun-
tries.
Il remember a funny instance that oc-
CURED once while 1 was living in New
England. One of our $4,000 men had a
way of calling man a liar in the most
careless and indiscriminate manner, and
with only the merest or no provocation.
One day he was in our office and casually
mentioned the fact that he was going to
make a tla9 to Kentucky.
"'When?' inquired the manager alertlv.
Next week
On business or pleasure?
Going to buy pair of horses

try. But if you go down to Kentucky wen

Well, what - began the policy
holder hotly, when the manager interrupt
ed him.

he said gently. It's all right here, and the
rate is satisfactory to us, but, by Jove,
We can't give you the same rate and LEI

Wnnted the rnrin Ratio.

Collector of the Port Thomas, says the
Philadelphia Record. has had many queer
experiences, but a letter he received the
other day in his mail proved a 'stumper.
1t came TO his desk post-marked Lynch
burg, Va, and was written in Chinese HE
rogiyphics Nobody in the Office could
translate it, so, after a few minutes pom
dering. the missive was sent back to
Lynchburg to the Rev. Mr.. Jackson, a stu
dent of the Chinese language, with a re-
quest to translate il. When it returned
the collector was much amused and greatly
surprised to find this reverential request:
"Enulgent and Gracious Potentate: BE
not surprised at what we write you. 1t is
the truth, Excellency; of that we, your
humble admirers, beg most deferentially
to assure you. 1t is our wish, noble des-
cendant Of the moon, in whose whiskers
justice and righteousness must ever pre-
side, to engage in the importation of lac
quered and polished woods from China.
May we beg to request that Your Highness
will send US table of the tribute exacted
upon such articles at your port, written in
the Chinese tongue, that your servants
may understand il?

A copy of the DINGHY tariff bill was sent
to Mr.. Jackson, with a facetious request
that he translate it for the Chinese COM
paDy.

WRITER'S OF FICTION,

II is evident from some recent develop
ments that many of the Washington cor
respondents regard themselves as writer's
of fiction rather than of news. Their aim
seems to be to write attractive and read
able stories, whether they have any truth
in them or not.
We called attention the other day to a
statement of Gen. Miles, who, in the
course of his testimony before the court
of inquiry, said that he had a letter from
one of the correspondents of a leading
New York paper in which the correspond
ent offered to furnish an affidavit that the
interview attributed to him in respect 10
'embalmed beef" which had appeared in
his paper was wholly Unauthorized, and
had been written in the office of the pa
per. and was what 1t was supposed Gen.
Miles would say if he were interviewed
on that subject.
Only few days ago it was published
in one of the most prominent of the New
York papers that Speaker Reed had stated
at a dinner party, at which a cab
met officer was present, that he would de-
feat the Nicaragua canal bill and would
prevent any appropriation for the payment
of the amount awarded TO Spain by the
treaty In the article it was further stat
ed that the speaker was entirely out of
harmony with the administration and
would do everything in his power TO de-
feat its policies. OF course, there was no
truth in the story. That there was not is
shown by what took place subsequently
in the House. The House was allowed to
vote on the question of making the Mica
ragua canal bill rider on the sundry
civil bill, The speaker did not attempt
to prevent such vote. And when the bin
to pay 10 Spain the S2OOo0OOO called for by
the treaty was introduced, he did not OBJ
ject to its immediate consideration. The
bill was passed with scarcely any oppo-
sition.
1t may be that the speaker could not
have defeated the bill If he had wanted
TO, but he could have delayed its consider
alton. Apparently, however, he did not
want to do either. 1t is pretty well I'M
derstood that the speaker was opposed Ia
the annexation of Hawaii. and he did NOT
see any necessity for the war with Spain.
1t is even said rhat he thought a mistake
had been made when we insisted upon
having the Philippine Islands, but he has
not been fighting the administration, and
he did not undertake to prevent an an
preparation for the payment to Spain of
the money called for by the treaty.
The country would be better off If the
Washington correspondents would confine
themselves TO facts and leave fiction to
another class Of writer's. The special cor

PERSONAL.

Senator Gray of Delaware is regarded
by his colleagues as an encyclopedia of
general information, especially in Supreme
Court decisions and parliamentary and
criminal law. He is known as the prompter
of the Senate because of the frequency
with which he comes to the aid of his col
leagues, who, while speaking, find them
selves on uncertain ground as to date,
figures or legal point. He and Frye are
great cronies.
The first lecture of Max Nordau on his
tour as an apostle of Zionism drew the
largest audience ever gathered in Vienna.
DR.. Nordau described the bright future in
store for the Jewish people once a Jewish
state should be established in Palestine. He
said the phlegmatic treatment of Zionism
by the wealthy was principally due to the
fact that they suffered but little by the in
creasing anti-Semitic sentiment on the con-
tinent.

The BOyIess Town.
From St. Nicholas~

From St Nicholas.
A cross old woman of long ago
Declared that she hated noise;
"The town would be so pleasant, you
know,
If only there were no boys"
She scolded and fretted about IL till
Her eyes grew heavy as lead,
And then, OF a sudden, the town grew
still.
For all the boys had fled.
And all through the long and dusty
street
There wasn't boy in view;
The base ball lot where they used to meet
Was a sight to make one blue.
The grass was growing on every base,
And the paths that the runners made:
For there wasn't a soul in all the place
Who knew how the game was played.
The dogs were sleeping the livelong day
Why should they bark or leap?
There wasn't a whistle or call to play.
And so they could only sleep.
The pony neighed from his lonely stall.
And longed for saddle and rein;
And even the birds on the garden wall
Chirped only a dun refrain
The cherries rotted and went to waste
There was none to climb the trees;
And nobody had a single taste,
Save only the birds and bees
There wasn't messenger boy-not one
To speed as such messengers can;
If people wanted their errands done,
They sent for a messenger man.
There was little, l ween, Of frolic and
noise,
There was less of cheer and mrth:
The sad old town, since IL lacked its boys.
Was the sdreariest place on earth.
The poor old woman began to weep
Then woke with a sudden scream;
Dear mer she cried, II have been
asleep;
And, OH what a horrible. dreamp'
