She Asked Him to GO Away

She Asked Him to go Away
She was a dear old lady, and she
was spending the summer in q quaint
old seaport town of New England, says
the New York Times. One morning
every one had gone out, leaving her
alone in the house. 1t was not long
after that she heard noise in an ad-

she saw a man ransacking . bureau

that was not what this woman did.
She stepped Immediately up to him and
said: Il am all alone in this house
and l want you to 90 right away" The
strangest part of the story seems to
be that the man did go. He had al
ready taken some things. and those
ne kept, but he did not wait to looh
for others. 1t was not conscience thai
drove him away. as he kept what he

noon. the passengers having been
transferred twice from fiat car from
Carrabelle to lever car between Cow

DisDOsiti0n of Stock.

When hungry stock are set into a
field they usually mako the most Of
what falls to them, but if they are
only half-hungry the desire to roam
over the pasture is strong. In q herd
or flock the grazing behavior of the
bunch as a whole is Influenced a good
deal by the peculiarities of the older
and more masterful members. Should
these leaders be Of disconnected
turn, they are apt to infect their
neighbors and to keep the group on the
move. A quiet, easy-going DISPOSE
tion on the part of the "elders' has
a soothing and settling effect. But
flocks and herds take strange fits at
times. They are uuaccountably rest
less, even on clean and pleasant range
of pasture. They keep moving, for
no apparent purpose, and refuse to
settle down. Matters are at the best
whom the stock fail to Craze of their
own accord. On q hillside or moor a
flock of sheep or herd of Highland
cattle seems to be perfectly contented
with the fare at command. One fears
to disturb the group. knowing full
we'll that once a spell of peace is
broken there cannot be rest for
hours Oh end. In spite of long
domestication, our farm animals of
the harder varieties are never so
happy as when they discover suitable
feeding grounds for themselves. Once
again they are the creatures of very
ancient custom, and have vague
gimpses of freedom.-London Live

Senator Pasco Always Paired.

The defeat Of Senator Pasco. Of
Florida, will remove from the Senate
q member with unique record. Sena-
tor Pasco has been in Congress for
twelve years, ana during that time his
record shows that he never voted
directly on any question. He has had
a chronic pair ever since he took his
seat. The reason for this is that
Senator Pasco has charge of the pairs
on the Democratic side, and it was his
duty to see that all the Democrats
absent were properly paired. To do
this he was almost always obliged to
pair himself, not on account of the
absence Of a Democrat, but out Of
courtesy to the Republicans.
Whenever Republican was absent
and demanded q pair on the Demo
cratic side, Senator Pasco had to fur.
nish it. It became a standing rule
in the Senate when the roll was called
and Senator Pasce's narae reached for
the little Senator fsom Florida 10 rise
in his seat and say: EMr. President,
am paired with the Senator from
-. If he were present he would
vote yea and I wonld vote nay" the
Florida Senator, of course, varying
the last part of his remarks according
to the question. It would have given
the tAlly clerk heart failure if Senator
PAsco had ever cast direct vote.

Ing the past two days in the War De-

contemplation an army of quite 10000

Root has been at the head Of the De-
partment only a brief time, he has been
making diligent inquiry among the bu-
reau chiefs regarding supplies and

tioning has been in the direction Of an

matured to make General Otis avail
able force at least 10000 men.
