Secretary Root.

The most notable fact concerning
the new secretary of war, Hon. Eli
hu Root, is that he is a distinguish
ed corporation lawyer. Another
attorney Of the corporations has en-
tered McKinley's cabinet to aid in
the strenuous fight which the aJ-
ministration is making onthe trusts.
Mr.. Root is the attorney of the
Whitney syndicate, and perhaps he
will be able to arrange coalition
between his chief in Wall street and
his chief in the white house so that
no campaign funds may g astray
in the next election. When the
time comes for irving the fat out of
the syndicates headed by erstwhilc
democrats, MIR. Root will no doubt
be very useful. Evansville Courier.

Queer FOOlin'.

Pleasantly sometimes takes
strange forms, as the writer in Har-
per's Bazaar thought one day last
March, when he was in Kingston
Jamaica. He was out walking one
afternoon, and while on narrow
side he came upon two black WON
en-, each apparently in a towering
rage. Each woman's tongue was
going at phenomenal rate, but not
a word of their screaming jargon was
Ineligible TO him.
Finally one of the women scoop
ed up double handful OF the ever
present Kingston dust and flung il
over the other woman with a wild
shrek of laughter. The dust-cov-
cred woman retaliafed by taking a
tin pan she bad in her hand and
scooping up couple Of quarts OF
the dirty water in the gutter by the
roadside, drenched her assailant
with it, while all that part of Kings
ton resounded with the mad laugh
ter. The two WON n then closed
in on each other, and proceeded to
engage in a prolonged wrestle, which
re- ulted in both of them falling to
the ground, where they rolled over
in cloud of dust and finally stood
upon their feet, facing each other
in state Of dirt and disorder be-
yond description.
Fearing that they would make a
second onslaught on each ether
and wishing to play the part OF
peacemaker, he stepped forward
and asked:
"What is the trouble?'
Curtsying low, one Of the womer
said, in a soft, drawling voice:
"No trouble at all, mastah; we,
jess foolin."

two tablespoonfuls of butter and when

looked upon as hopeless commodity,

Maillard lost both his eyes. He ordered

When Robert Of France heard 81 these
